I recently ordered from Aloha Stacks via Uber Eats while attending a sports tournament in the area, and unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired.
Despite the convenience of Uber Eats, the higher pricing didn't justify the quality of the food I received. My hibachi steak lunch with fried rice and mac salad was marred by a peculiar addition--relish in the mac salad, which was quite different from the other traditional Hawaiian recipes I'm accustomed to.
While the spam musubis were passable, the incomplete wrapping of seaweed around them raised questions about attention to detail in the kitchen. Moreover, the lack of travel-friendly packaging resulted in a messy mix-up, with my steak ending up mixed into the mac salad and rice.
To add to the frustration, the latte arrived warm and spilled during transit, further detracting from the overall experience. Similarly, the spam & eggs order suffered from the same issue of everything being jumbled together.
Despite making a call to the restaurant to request cutlery, napkins, and condiments, the promised provisions fell short. The minimal napkins provided were inadequate for the size of my order, and the condiments included were limited, leaving me wishing for essentials like syrup or jam for my pancakes.
Overall, the hefty price tag of over $100 for this order felt like a rip-off, given the lackluster quality and subpar service. Aloha Stacks in Mission Viejo failed to deliver on expectations, leaving me unsatisfied and unlikely to return.
