The restaurant offers some of the best plate lunches in the area, with a variety of options for protein, starch, and vegetables. Portions are generous and filling, often priced under $10, making it a favorite for workers and families alike. The meats are weighed, and the side dishes are served in big scoops, ensuring good value for money. The steak is particularly tasty, lean but flavorful, though it may include some fat. During dinner hours, many customers take food home, especially their affordable rotisserie chicken and fresh Ahi, which is priced competitively at $14 a pound. The staff, including Diane, Stacy, and a young produce employee, are consistently praised for their helpful, pleasant, and professional attitude. Their service adds to the welcoming atmosphere of the store. In addition to the restaurant, Times Supermarket is highly recommended for grocery shopping. Located within an outdoor shopping plaza with free parking, the store is clean, well-stocked, and features a wide selection of goods, including Asian snacks and food items.

Customers appreciate its convenience, especially for picking up supplies after a day at the beach. The store also offers build-your-own plate lunches and poke, with a variety of options, though some fish may be frozen prior to preparation. Overall, Taste of Times provides a friendly, clean, and efficient shopping experience, whether dining in or shopping for groceries.
