What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?
Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives featured Bobby's Hawaiian Style Restaurant in the "Viewer's Choice" episode, which aired 2007-10-29, highlighting owners Bobby and Diana Nakihei's kalua pig and lau lau. The restaurant is a family-run Hawaiian-food spot in Everett, Washington, that the Nakiheis, who moved to the area from Hawaii, have operated since the late 1990s. A restaurant-directory listing (dinersdriveinsdiveslocations.com), updated 2025-04-23, described the business as an active, ongoing restaurant at 1011 Hewitt Avenue West with a working phone number for hours and reservations. That listing's own text also referred to the restaurant's setting as a Lynnwood strip mall, which conflicts with its own stated Everett address; that inconsistency is noted here rather than resolved. No dated news coverage of a closure or relocation was found in this review.
