Highway Inn is a Hawaii icon, renowned for serving up traditional Hawaiian specialties since its 1947 founding by Seiichi & Nancy Toguchi. During World War II, the Toguchis and their three children were forcibly moved to Japanese Incarceration Camps. Seiichi mastered his culinary skills while working in the camp’s mess hall, and in 1947, after returning home to Hawaii, he opened Highway Inn. Crowds soon began to line up for a taste of Toguchi’s cooking, and they haven’t let up since. Highway Inn is today owned by Seiichi & Nancy’s grandchildren, and the menu hasn’t changed much since those early days.

- Raging Volcano Hot Sauce – Traditionally, dishes like Kalua Pig or Lau Lau are eaten without any added sauces or condiments. But we know some folks like to add a little hot sauce to spice things up. Just for them, Highway Inn offers Hawaiian Chip Company’s Raging Volcano Hot Sauce in their restaurants. Made by a local company, it has a tangy base with habanero, cayenne and garlic.
- Pa’akai Hawaiian Sea Salt (1 lb.) – Paʻakai is the Hawaiian word for salt. Hawaiian salt is used in traditional dishes such Kālua Pig, Poke (raw cubed fish), and Pipikaula (Hawaiian dried beef) and is used in all of Highway Inn’s traditional Hawaiian cuisine. To add that Island taste to your food, we offer Pure Kona Deep Sea Salt from our retail partner, Sea Salts of Hawaiʻi.
- ’Alaea Hawaiian Sea Salt (1 lb.) – ʻAlaea Salt (Hawaiian red salt) – Enriched with iron oxide of purified red clay. Traditional ʻalaea gets its name and color from the red volcanic clay many Hawaiians used to line their traditional salt ponds. This salt can be used for spice blends and rubs that will add flavor and color to your own recipes.
- Hiwa Kai Hawaiian Sea Salt (1 lb.) – Hiwa Kai (black salt) is created by combining high-quality sea salt with activated charcoal and has an earthy flavor. Our retail partner, Sea Salts of Hawaiʻi, calls their hiwa kai “Uahi” (meaning “smoke”) for the charcoal that gives it a dramatic color. It is a great addition to meat dishes with a smoky flavor.
