I walked in to the restaurant and it was empty, no people so I immediately got skeptical. We’ll let me tell you the food is outstanding. I’m a kid that grew up in the Moana Loa area of Oahu. I haven’t had good Samoan, Tongan and Hawaiian food in a long time. Great friendly service with Island hospitality and a beautiful smile. Come visit this restaurant. It’s legit if your craving for some great Island food.

Got there at 11 AM as per Apple Maps. They were not open but luckily the owner and her daughter were arriving and very graciously offered to put something together for me being a one time special visit coming from out of town. I ordered the chicken curry with rice and enjoyed the flavor. To specify what type of Polynesian cuisine they have, I inquired and learned they are Tongan. Katalina was very kind and courteous. Definitely check them out and support a local small business!

Good island food price a little bit much can use a little clean up in the restaurant and make it look and feel welcoming. It's a little dark inside need more lighting.

Constructive criticism: Otai is not supposed to be watered down like this. It also has a weird after-taste. I like a good otai. This ain't it. Poly food recommendations: Kale moa or sipi Sapasui Turkey tail Poly-style sipi tunu which is baked or fried pieces of lamb shoulders. Room for improvement: Otai Ota &Lu...they're just ok. Ambience has the tendency to make me lose my appetite here. Hours of operation. 11am is 11am opening. Island time is unprofessional. You guys should check out your competition to get an idea on how to improve. You'd be a good poly kitchen in this area. Ya'll make it feel warm like it's grandma's kitchen. I know ya'll got family members in the construction business who can paint or liven up the place. Good luck!! Really.

Awesome family type feeling. Island style. Just like home. Got to try the Otai.
