content: Was surprised how many Hawaiian natives are praising this place. The mixed plate and Poke were both drowned in sauce to the point that the meal was ruined. It didn't taste like anything I've had in Hawaii, but was fascinated by this strange hotel named after California and filled with Hawaiians. There's a book on the hotel's history and its connection to Hawaii. I also went to try the Shave Ice at the ice cream shop next door, but the machine was broken. What a bust!
