Omg!! I havent been here in years but recently had it for dinner & it was amazing. The flavor was great & the chicken was seasoned perfectly. I ended up having it twice in 1 week. The service was great & the staff were very friendly. I highly recommend ❤

The food was great! Always cooked fresh. The spicy pineapple chicken was amazing! Only downfall is they close pretty early..6pm. Our dine-in ended up being takeout. They have a touchscreen monitor for self ordering and checkout which was easy to use. The two guys working seemed more interested with preparing orders than interacting with customers which was fine, they werent rude about it. It just would have been nice since it was our first time there to be told about ringing ourselves up instead of figuring that out after watching others coming in do that. Overall it was the best Hawaiian BBQ weve had!

First time trying out Hilo Hawaiian BBQ, and had a pleasant experience. The service was quick and the food was very tasty. We tried the chicken combo and the bbq combo, the food had so much flavor. The combos come with rice and a macaroni salad, was plenty of food for one person.

Really great dish. I ordered the chicken combo plate with extra macaroni salad. The meal took a little long to come out but I think they only had one cook. Leave yourself a extra couple of minutes. Everything was cooked perfectly.

Food is alright but disappointed in the service. Waiting for another item for 30-45 minutes, when we finished our mea and 4 other customers got their complete order, l, still not done. The cashier should have warned that it would be longer, ahead of time, and /or apologized for inconvenience. Went back twice just to tell me not ready. When i asked for my back, still no acknowledgment and empathy. I felt like they didnt care, it normal service to them. No customer service values.

Great little joint. Took the family here for dinner tonight. We got the BBQ chicken, pulled pork, & fried shrimp. Everything was delicious. Rice and macaroni salad come as sides. The Mac salad was awesome—super creamy. Chicken was moist and flavorful. The bbq sauce and teriyaki sauce were great. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the mood for some Hawaiian BBQ.

Stopped off here on our way home after a bad experience at another restaurant. Figured wed just take food home. Well, the kids and the wife are happy. The food was good, it was all fresh. Nothing fancy, just a Family Meal. The only issue- there will always be a 10-15 min wait for the food because they make it fresh. Not a complaint, just an observation.

Fast service and good food. Clean with friendly staff. No spicy volcano chicken, strangely has the same menu and food as my home base Hawaiian bbq spot (by a different name) but not as many options. Great if looking for a quick bite and trying to stay away from drive thru fast food.

2022-05-17 23:49:50

The potstickers are enormous, almost a meal by themselves. The combo grill plate was pretty good, with nice marinade on the meat. Our biggest disappointment, however, was that several of the items we used to come for arent on the menu anymore. We were especially sad that the Kahlua pork and Japanese curry are not available!

Food is always delicious. However the restaurant itself is dirty, chairs sticky, floor was sticky. My shoes kept sticking to the floor. The poor plants needed water. I advised them to water the poor plants. They laughed. Wait. What........

We have been going here for awhile. The food taste and quality has dropped a bit but the drastic change was in quantity. Of couse as with everything the prices have also steadily risen. Overall its a specialized meal that if your craving this is a decent place.

There is no hospitality like Hawaiian hospitality, so believe me, if I am not on any of the beautiful islands of Hawaii, any island restaurant I walk to that is a chain, will have my expectations low.However, at this chain, the food comes out quickly and you are in and out in no time. Although the hawaiian bbq places in the area are limited, this is one of my go-tos. Only thing I am missing is a mai tai, sand between my toes and a hawaiian sunset.

They are not reliable they close randomly on a Monday or Tuesday and when they are open Terrible!!! Asian Cashier is rude they take forever with your food (even if it’s a phone order) and the price went up (which don’t matter) BUT they give u less food & by Trying to make up with the higher price, they give you a stale egg roll.

This place is probably by far the worst Hawaiian BBQ joint I have ever tried the use so much grease on the food youll have a puddle underneath the plate of grease and the fountain drinks are super mega washed down! Literally after eating a couple bites I just couldnt anymore my stomach was hurting and the drink didnt help at all tasting super washed down and bitter. Please Be Careful When Eating Here! Dont believe the other reviews theyre just super hungry people that anything tastes good that they let hunger do the talking.

Not very fast but Ive never had an issue with the size of the serving and the quality of the ingredients. Amazing spam masubi, not that many options. I love their green tea/ black tea they have. Little bit pricey, I easily spend 12 dollars on my self for the meal. P.S try their macaroni.

I placed a phone order for pickup today. I arrived and wasnt let in because I didnt have a mask. When I asked if they require masks are they supplying them? Without getting an answer I was told to go outside. So I leave without my food. About 10-15 minutes later I get a call from the cashier asking me if I was going to pick up my food. I told her no because you wouldnt let me in without a mask. Then she tells me if you dont have a mask we will bring your order to you outside. So why was I told that when I placed the order or when I was told to go outside? There were no visible signs requesting masks be worn as I approached the the storefront either. So until they can get their communication skills in order, I will be dinning elsewhere.

Im originally from the islands. This is a nice spot for some dishes I grew up with and enjoy. Portions are nice. Call ahead if you can, an order can take 10 to 20 mins to prepare.

The customer service was outstanding. I had a lot of questions..and they remained patient with me .

Review №26

It was not bad. I was good with portion size but Im not a big eater. I could see if you were a man or like big meals you may feel cheated for the price. Employees and service was very good.

The only thing that stops me from eating here more often is that its one town over. Meat and rice, its a perfect meal. I crave it. I was short ribs every day. Every day I do not have them I am sad. Iweiting this all I want is to eat them. I will not sleep well since I do not get to eat it....

Service could be better. Teenagers who dont care about quality service. Not to mention making people have take out because they didnt clean the trays to eat there. Owners need to be aware.

I ordered a family meal and had a choice of 3 different meats for $40.00 I chose 2 chickens and short ribs. They wanted me to pay 8.25 extra for the ribs. So I chose beef instead. Worker said the beef is the same as the ribs except no bones. I wont be going back unless they allow ribs to be one of the meat choices.

Good flavorful food. An order takes 10 to 15 minutes to make, but worth the wait.

Review №31

2018-09-02 00:21:59

Most people mess up loco moco. Not this place. I was impressed. Seasoned patties, eggs cooked perfect. Using best foods mayo in the mac salad...in my opinion waaay better than L&L. Bbq mix plate is fire! 🔥A little spendy, but no complaints. I will be back. Well done Hilo!

As frequent travelers to Hawaii and lovers of a good plate lunch we really enjoyed this place. Almost like being in Hawaii! The bbq chicken and chicken katsu were delicious and they even warm the side of teriyaki sauce. Cashier was very pleasant!

I’ve been to lots of Hawaiian bbqs and never have I seen a place so stingy with its food even though if you pay extra.....I paid 21 something for a 5 pieces of chicken and a side order of rice that is outrageous

So good I always get the chicken and beef combo. There are a couple other Hawaiian BBQ joints that just dont measure up at all. this place is the reigning champ for sure.

Review №41

2017-04-26 18:23:48

The food is a little expensive. Ordered the kalua pork. The pork was chunky, not exactly shredded. The cabbage is not shredded like other Hawaiian food places. I think this place is alright. Like the location.

Review №44

2017-04-02 02:43:59

Went there tonight and not only did screw up my order but the cashier admitted that they only put one size portion of meat on your plate even if you pay for extra, so not only are they not giving you the right portion but they are also stealing your money.

Review №45

2017-02-28 20:47:35

Long wait and portions are small ish for the listed price. But the food was good. I prefer L&L

Review №46

2019-08-01 05:05:59

I usually get the bbq chicken and chicken katsu, but its a hit or miss on the katsu sauce. Depending on the cook, it might be too sweet for my taste.
