We were devastated when our favorite hole-in-the-wall Thai restaurant on the corner of Sheldon and Cortez went out of business… but when one door closes, another one opens – in this case, Ohana Hawaiian BBQ.
In this episode, get our take on what is a whole new cuisine category for Prescott, and to whet your appetite, we have just two words for you: Macaroni Salad.
Join the fun…
hello hello hello hello peeps this is Diana Randall bro here uh coming to you this evening from the beautiful little city of Prescot Arizona presc Arizona she’s PR yes yes yes yes I am I’m always in production making delicious Cajun pickles that I’m happy to share with you when I see you or if you come to one of my open houses so we are here today to talk about a fabulous new restaurant that we absolutely adore we love it so much that I even had them cater a party we had it was astonishing was so good and so it is (00:42) called Omaha Omaha OHA ohigh oh Idaho no no Wisconsin no what state is it it’s o h Au U Hawaiian Barbecue something like that Hawaiian it’s called Hawaiian Barbecue no it isn’t it has a name Wahoo uhhuh something like that I don’t think so I think it says Hawaiian Barbecue on it does not okay pull up my phone and I’ll prove it to you right now it has a formal name not just Hawaiian Barbecue okay all right but it is on the corner of Cortez and Sheldon so for you local folks don’t miss it it’s fabulous it (01:19) used to be where the old Thai Cottage was yeah so we have a review on K Tha cottage which was also my favorite yeah no it’s actually we called it a cottage but it actually the name of it was actually house that’s right but it was uh it was run by a Thai family lovely and uh they they did a great job and uh the only thing about it was they were constantly away visiting Thailand with their family and I don’t know if they went back to thail think they went back so so we were very sad when they closed (01:49) so it it it took a while for the new place to open and it took us a few weeks to try it but when we did oh it is amazing it is just like some of the traditional food you’ll find in Hawaii when you go to visit so if you love spam they’ve got spam dishes which you Hawaii is the the highest per capita uh consumption of spam in the world that’s right so if you’re a Spam fan this is the place to go but they also have amazing barbecue beef fixed Hawaiian style that’s the that’s the one I would (02:22) try that is so good if you haven’t gone yet try the beef first the beef is amazing the beef is amazing yeah um and then they also have delicious pork they have chicken katsu which is lightly breaded chicken strips fixed uh the Japanese way from in Hawaii as they fix it Paco PCO I forget what they call the breading I don’t know but it was good and uh what else uh oh Cher chicken terak Chien my favorites are the beef and the teriyaki chicken you can’t beat it and then they also give you your traditional uh macaroni salad which is (02:56) really big in Hawaii you get their macaroni salad good and and rice and delicious sauces that goes over it so I mean so you walk in you place your order they bring it to you it’s a you know it’s a nice little seating area yeah it’s set up set up kind of like a fast food place they will bring you your food yes uh from the count I guess if they’re very busy maybe they won’t but they’ll call your number but uh you know it’s not a service restaurant so much but uh it’s it’s wonderful and they’ve done a (03:27) great job remodeling the place the inside of really really nice uh and they are just they are just killing it and they do catering as well so like for instance we had a party we got huge treay of all these different Meats set it up uh buffet style everybody came loved it they also do egg rolls they also do crab drons I mean it’s it’s it’s good stuff it is really good stuff and it’s just a great place just to go have lunch yeah uh you don’t necess if you don’t need to have catering just go (03:56) there and you have a great you know dinner um they have smaller sizes they have bigger dinner portions it goes on and on and on I cannot say enough good things about it is really good Hawaiian the other thing I really like about it is it’s not another of something yeah uh so any of you guys out there considering opening a restaurant I’m sure nobody is that probably is no one but just in case if you want to start a restaurant in the area of Prescot don’t do Italian there are at least a half dozen phenomenal (04:30) really good Italian Italian restaurants don’t do Thai there’s like a half dozen Amazing Thai restaurant but you know people new restaurants oh it’s another Italian restaurant oh yeah okay well every eighth visit will go there you know because the other ones are are always going to be the priority but these people very barbecue very clever something different and something really really good we did a recently did a video on lyx Lake they do German food it’s nice to see something a little you know off off the path absolutely we (05:04) would love to see a Cuban restaurant would be wonderful yes I’d love Cuban yeah just you know something a little different because uh yeah you a good well we we we’ve had a a couple of decent steak restaurants we’re still waiting for a really fine steak dining uh that’s good so but anyway we
