🌺APPRECIATION POST🌺
To our Daniela, Thank you for all you do for Da Local Boy Ohana.
Still remembered the first day you walked in for your interview, very shy, timid and soft spoken. Throughout the 2.5 yrs you’ve been with us, you have shown tremendous growth, tenacity and leadership, not just a good team member but you went far and beyond more than it was expected. Now that you have taken a higher role of management, stay true and never loose that fire and passion. keep growing, keep on learning, we know you’ll go far in life. we’ll always be here to support you in everything you do.
This trip to Hawaii is our gift to you and reward for all your hardwork, dedication and loyalty to Da Local Boy Ohana and show you personally how our culture and hospitality is back home in Hawaii and hoping for you to have a better understanding on how we are the way we are so you can spread the Aloha wherever you would go.
Thank you for everything❤️ Stay blessed and we appreciate you from the bottom of our hearts.

We could have not done this without everyone who supported us since day 1. You folks are the reason we strive to do our best and to continue to share the Aloha in the midwest and to everyone we meet. Our journey, all the milestone, all challenges and obstacles, struggles, all the wins, this wouldn’t be possible without your endless love and support to us, to our family.

None of this would be possible without our incredible team whose dedication and hard work in serving our guests have not gone unnoticed.

To our parents, Thank you for your support and prayers. We love you. All Glory to God.

From our Ohana, Mahalo Nui Loa❤️

Nate Domingo and his wife Dianne didn't intend to open a restaurant, but now they have two — one in suburban Highwood, one Downtown — and both are drawing raves.
