'Ohana food? How does it taste? Sweet?

My DH absolutely HATES meats that have a sweet flavor. (He wouldn't touch ham with pineapple, etc.) Will he like 'Ohana?

There's very little that's sweet tasting in the meal. You start out with wonton chips that have three dipping sauces. I think one of them was sweet, but the other two were not. Then you're served a mixed salad with a dressing that is a bit sweet, but I can't remember the exact flavor. This is followed by peel-and-eat shrimp, not sweet at all. The main meal consists of mixed vegetables in a sauce, skewered meats, and au gratin potatoes. None of these items is sweet at all. The dessert is of course sweet. It's a bread pudding. Yum. It was one of my favorite meals, so I definitely think it's worth trying. There is so much available that he'll be able to find plenty that he likes.

Thanks! That really helps. I think we'll give it a try!!!

i'd be more worried about chewing it than the sweet factor but i don't remember it being sweet just dry and tough.

the wings are sweetish, with a coriander spiced taste( very good, a sweet chinese rib type sauce is the closest thing i can think of) and i haven't had the shrimp but it is supposed to be in a sweet and sour sauce

The wings are a little on the sweet side, and the shrimp are covered in a sweet and sour sauce. But the steak, pork, and turkey are pretty much just grilled - no sauce or marinate at all.

I've never gotten a tough or dry piece of meat at 'Ohana.

On our last trip here we had the "dry meat" experience. However, on the prior trip everything was great.

My family found the appetizers to be the best part of the meal. The meats didn't have much taste, as they were overcooked and dry.
