Loco moco is one of Hawaii’s most iconic comfort foods, capturing the local flavors and spirit in one dish. 

Typically, loco moco consists of a hamburger steak served over hot rice, topped with a fried egg, and generously covered in rich gravy. 

It’s a simple but satisfying meal that has become a beloved staple.

A juicy, tender Kobe-style patty is placed on a bed of rice, topped with a soft fried egg and rich gravy, creating a harmonious balance of flavors.

What makes this dish extra special is the option to add toppings. 

By adding crispy fried onions, you enhance the dish with a crunchy, slightly sweet texture that elevates the overall flavor. 

This combination not only enhances the taste but also adds a delightful balance of textures, making the Kobe-style loco moco even more enjoyable.
