Aloha Snacks

A cute place with warm and welcoming staff, laid back cozy cute setting inside and out, a fun delicious menu, a bite of Hawaiian favorites, and most importantly, a heart for the customers that motivates staff to go above and beyond! Here is my story. My mother was with us last Saturday. She had a stomach pain and didn’t want anything but a light hot soup. There weren’t many items that sounded good to her (nothing really appeals to her when she wasn’t feeling herself), so I ordered something that I thought she might enjoy. The owner (I believe) who was a chef came to check on her a couple of times and realized she was not eating much. He asked me what could possibly make her happy. I explained she didn’t feel good and only wanted a light soup. I said it was totally okay. But the owner didn’t give up. He went back in the kitchen and came out a few minutes later with a bowl of noodle soup that was created for her! My Mom and I were especially touched because this man cares for his customers, listens to them, and is awesome and creative. The noodle soup was in chicken broth with coconut milk and spice in it. He chose buckwheat noodles, added a couple of oysters and sprinkled some cilantros on top. What an amazing creation! My mom loved it and felt so much better. I didn’t realize I didn’t tip them until getting back that night. Apparently the card reader didn’t give you options to choose the percentage of tips and automatically add it to the bill. I wanted to go back on Sunday to get a coffee and give them a big tip, but found out they were not open on Sunday. I will definitely return in the future whenever we visit VB. Advice to visitors: 1. Have some cash for tips and leave it in the jar. 2. Try their special items on the menu. Yummy. 3. Ask if you have a preference to food. The staff there would definitely try their best to customize it for you. 4. They are closed on Sundays. 5. Kids friendly. High chairs. Sweet and tolerant staff. Changing tables in the bathrooms. They even have a few baby diapers stacked in the main bathroom. I don’t see that often. If that doesn’t scream care, I don’t know what care is. Thank you for reading my essay. Appreciation to the boss, chef, and staff for a great experience. Cannot wait to visit again!

12/16/23 - what a cool spot. The interior decor is so cute. The staff was super nice and patient. I got the south Pacific farmer bowl to go. Lots of items to choose from the menu but not overwhelming. The bowl was so good. I would really like to come back and try some other items. Hopefully I can soon! I highly recommend trying the food and stopping by.

The food here was delicious. I got the cheesesteak bulgogi, which came with a small side of waffle fries. Very filling! My husband got the cured tuna bowl. It’s pricey, but very yummy and fresh tasting. Healthy dish. The service was great. We sat outside on the patio. Great experience and food.

This place has a great vibe and absolutely stellar poke bowls. The beer selection doesn't seem to be huge but it's great, I found something new and very tasty. I had a great light dinner with family and we'll come back the next time we vacation here. I have to admit I was not thrilled with the fries, but that's mostly because they were different than I expected. They were a well-made side regardless.

I love coming here. The food is wonderful. I wish there was more seating, but it's worked out alright each time. My favorite are the Korean sticky wings--run don't walk!

Dined here Sat afternoon, lumpia is tasty, gnarly burger is cheesy and meaty, and chicken sammy is saucy and good. Fries are all right. There’s parking which is great, there’s an outdoor seating area. I will say the food is a bit on the saltier side.
