The Hawaiian Marketplace's latest casual dining option can finally claim some legitimate connection to the local Ninth Island spirit. Pacific Creationz Hawaiian Kitchen has taken over from Fukuburger, which shuttered back in June.
Operated by Hig Management, the force behind the retail center’s Pete Rose Bar & Grill and its fast food outlets including China Max and Chicken Now, Pacific Creationz is fully committed to a menu of island-inspired dishes and is also serving beers from the Kona Brewing Company, located in Kailua-Kona on Hawaii's Big Island.
Their outdoor seating faces another recent arrival, frozen cocktail specialists Evening Call, a familiar presence on the Strip.
On the Pacific menu, complete with unique spelling choices, plate dishes including loco moco and chicken katsu, poke bowls and "slidahs" and "burgahs" served on Hawaiian sweet rolls.
