Where it is

Particularly interesting

The sandwiches

Fewer than three sandwiches described well enough to score; no tier. 2 items are listed without a number because the menu names them without describing them.

  1. Aloha BLT Sandwich 88 outstanding

    white bread (inferred from the name), toasted: bacon; lettuce; tomato.

  2. Aloha Burger burger 49 rough

    toasted sesame seed bun, toasted: house pressed specially seasoned ground beef patty; mayonnaise.

  3. Kalua Pork Sliders not scored: the menu does not describe a sandwich

    king's hawaiian rolls, cold: kalua pork; lettuce; tomato; mayonnaise; mustard.

    In italics: what the name implies and the menu does not list (the deli standard for a lone protein).

    Worth a look: ingredient not in the pantry: Kalua Pork.

  4. Mahi Mahi Sandwich not scored: the menu does not describe a sandwich

    sliced sourdough, cold: grilled or fried mahi mahi; mayonnaise; lettuce; tomatoes.
