Tucked into a cowboy-themed shopping center with a drafty food court (bring a jacket or sit by the fireplace), this burger stand run by former Four Seasons Lanai chef Edwin Goto has a compact menu: plump burgers made with local grass-fed beef, grilled ahi, taro, or Hamakua mushrooms; thick, sumptuous shakes made from Tropical Dreams ice cream; and hand-cut, twice-cooked fries. Other than that, there’s just a grilled ahi Niçoise salad featuring island greens—but it’s also delicious. A few doors down is Goto’s casual, sit-down Noodle Club, serving artfully presented interpretations of local and Asian specialties such as saimin, pork belly bao buns, pho, and ramen; the yuzu pudding cake is a melt-away marvel.
