  • replying to u/Spiritual_Option4465: In Hawaii, only some of that food is considered Hawaiian. Most of it would be considered local/Hawaii food (not native Hawaiian, that’s the distinction). Source: I’m from Hawaii. Anyway, I think there was a place near Columbia called Makana that had some Hawaiian food, not sure if they’re still open. No chance of any lau lau in nyc

    “+1 for Makana. I’m not Hawaiian but ordered from Makana all the time and they have loco moco and some of the other stuff mentioned from OP. Always really enjoyed it”

  • replying to u/Schmeep01: Just remembered that the Hawaiian dish Loco Moco is as close to Salisbury steak you’ll get: Makana has this and it will scratch the itch you have for this flavor/texture profile.
