Matt Lawler: Lamb double dip with jack, macaroni salad, lb of potato salad, pickle, and hot mustard. If you're serious, use all the mustard you can on your sandwich.
Freddie Fierro: My favorite is the Beef and Blue Cheese sandwich, and their macaroni salad. The coffee for 9 cents is good too.
Simple Foodie: French Dip, Pickles, Macaroni Salad, Coleslaw, Potato Salad & Boysenberry Pie

Fried Chicken Joint · Chinatown · 55 tips and reviews
DJ P: Task Rabbits FTW. "Mild" is plenty of kick for most, "Hot" is an adventure. Chicken ordered "Howlin" includes gloves and usually a free side of mac salad. Eat Scoops right after to kill the heat.
Kenny Khuu: Decent mac salad with a thin dressing that cools the mouth from the loads of spices from the chicken. 3/5
Mohammed Abu Hajar: Great hidden gem, one of the best fried Chicken i ever had in my life, the buckle is the first thing to taste, the wings was outstanding the half chicken is huge for one person, the Mac Salad is great

Sang Noh: Eat the Loco Moco! 2 hamburger pattie, two runny eggs, over rice all covered in gravy... and a mac salad
Bobby Ferg: $8 ribs lunch special tue-thur, served with chow fun, mac salad, and rice. Very good deal and seriously ono grindz!
X: Breakfast served all day makes this a good & inexpensive brunch spot. Plus, chili water as a condiment is a brilliant idea! Tasty, and super simple to make (at a home) to boot. :)
Lizzie Dezran: 2WAYCOMBination> of spareribs & Beef ribs///usually order xtra bread so I can dip it in Hot bbq sauce=) mac salad w/bbq sauce also tastes GREAT!
Lizzie Dezran: 2Way combination> Beef and Spareribs w/Xtra side of Bread! Mac salad is awesome w/spicy BBQ sauce~yes i put the sauce in the salad..tastes GREAT!
Jennifer: Avoid the sauce -- as a Texan, I feel it's way too sweet. The brisket was doused in sauce, so I felt disappointed. The bread, the hot links, the macaroni salad, and the spare ribs were fantastic.

Ernest: Go with the #4, the beef and ribs are good. I can eat a bucket of their macaroni salad, it has tuna in it. Best spam masubi I've ever had.
Elena Ballenger: Macaroni salad is bomb with sirracha sauce
Liz Bui: The mix BBQ is the best!! BBQ beef, short ribs, and BBQ chicken. Also try the spam musubi. Delicious!!
Reina Salas: The boneless short ribs. I'm not a big fan of beef but I make a huge exception for these!! They melt in your mouth. Combined with some rice, hot Sauce and mac salad it's heaven.
Landon Larsen: Coconut syrup is a must on French toast or pancakes and the spam fried rice royale is INCREDIBLE!
Ben K.: Try the original Royale-fried rice with egg, Portuguese sausage and char siu (Chinese BBQ pork). If you have a sweet tooth the King's Hawaiian bread French toast is amazing. Ask for the coconut syrup.
