Chicken with rice.  I substitute vegetables for the mac salad.
Tammy S.

The food is good. Not the best I have had but it's good and decent. Employees are nice :)

Mia A.

Three words. Broke Da Mouth. Ono grinds. Good grub! Friendly staff. Small venue. Order from cashier and they bring the food out to you. I loved the island jams they were playing. Made me feel like I was in Hawaii. Definitely check out this spot! Garlic chicken fo sho!

Service is so great and they're always so attentive. Workers were so helpful when I was wondering what to get. Ordered the chicken katsu plate and they pack it! Couldn't even finish it because it was so much and ate the rest for dinner and was full. Katsu is super crispy and the Mac salad is a great portion size with the rice and cabbage. Will be coming back again!

Combo with kalua and garlic chicken
Jason C.

Love the food here. I ordered the kalua cabbage and spicy garlic chicken combo. I really love that they substituted steamed veggies instead of rice. The kalua was flavorful and juicy. The smoke wasn't super strong. The garlic chicken wasn't spicy at all but it was tender and crispy on the outside. Over all I thought it was a great value. Food was great and service was excellent.

Garlic chicken & seared tuna plate
Caroline L.

Quick easy lunch or dinner spot bringing the spirit of the aloha state. It's conveniently located near Costco and a ton of stores on St. Rose parkway. They're consistent and quality is always good and fresh with flavorful dishes. We really like the variety of combo plates and the Hawaiian drinks which are so fun to choose from! I discovered a new drink I've never seen before called green tea lychee. I highly recommend the garlic chicken as one of your plate options that's flavorful and downright addictive. Service is friendly and efficient, and even ordering on DoorDash is easy. Overall the authentic flavors in a chill island setting is comforting and relaxing with a sip of Hawaiian Sun. Recommended Food: - Plate - Garlic chicken & seared tuna are my 2 choices that comes with rice and macaroni salad

The specials for April 2026
Roxana Roxi R.

Love the food here - check out the specials - great central location, awesome staff, nice outdoor patio with tvs - lots of seating and parking is right outside! The food is savory and really good! Plus priced right

Staff are little pushy and seemed rush but I'm sure that's helpful during lunch rush. There is a huge menu and shared space with bowlogy so poke, and açaí options as well as the grill options. I had the bbq salmon and it came with three sides. Huge portions, could've easily shared with someone. Huge Hawaiian canned drink selection as well. The inside is a modern trendy vibe, clean space, with a lot of seating.

Garlic Chicken Plate
Walter H.

Second visit to the 9th Island Grill, and we were much happier than our first visit! Still got carry out food, but much happier with the choices and results! The staff continues to be amazing - friendly and helpful! This time we tried the Garlic chicken plate - crispy and very tasty. The garlic sauce can be a little sweet for our taste, but the chicken itself was great; and the extra crispy chicken skin makes this dish! Also got the Loco Moco - the eggs don't travel great all the way home, but the dish is very tasty and serving size is huge! Lastly we tried the Tonkatau Ramen - this was good even taking it home! Definitely have more dishes we want to try, but the service and food we reckon this trip makes us want to go back soon!

Food is great, service is friendly, and dining room is very clean!! Will definitely return..!!!

Loco Moco Plate
Debrah D.

Visited again on a Sunday night to give it another shot as Josh invited us back to make things right. We decided to dine in and got the chicken katsu, seared ahi tuna plate, tonkatsu ramen and the loco moco along with 5 Hawaiian Sun drinks. My kiddo was bummed as the egg on his loco moco was already cracked. Doesn't matter to me but it may for others as it did for him. Other than that, my kid enjoyed the loco moco and I liked the roasted garlic garnish. My partner said his ahi tuna steak was stringy and didn't enjoy it. I thought it was alright and quite enjoyed the tangy flavored mustard dip. The rice was dry but not hard like last time. The tonkatsu ramen was flavorful and they give a good amount of chasu but the meat was tougher than I like. My other kiddo finally got to enjoy the chicken katsu and said it was good but thought the katsu sauce was ketchup. Our free entrees that Josh comped us were the chicken katsu and loco moco. Thanks for making it right, Josh! The dining room was clean and the two servers were friendly. We noticed that most parties coming in were getting açaí bowls. Maybe we'll stick to the chicken katsu, loco moco and try açaí bowls next time.

Found Matiki Island BBQ on social while scrolling one night. The reasonably priced Hawaiian food…read morealong with their huge beef ribs caught my attention. I took a couple of months before I was able to make it here. But the wait was worth the squeeze. The quality of the beef was delicious and better than my normal go to Hawaiian food. The rice was perfectly cooked and their mac/potato salad was amazing.

I come here specifically for the beef ribs, so imagine my disappointment when I stopped by one day…read moreonly to find out they were out. I returned the very next day specifically for the ribs, only to be told they had actually been out for months. My first question is: Why wasn't that communicated the day before? A simple heads-up could have saved me an unnecessary trip. Second, if the beef ribs have been unavailable for months, why isn't that information posted anywhere online or even on the door? Customers shouldn't have to make a trip to find out that a signature menu item has been unavailable for an extended period. Things happen, and I understand that items can be unavailable. However, proactive communication goes a long way and shows consideration for your customers' time. Plesse do better with communicating important menu changes and unavailable items. A little transparency could have prevented a very frustrating experience.

Just as an update: I came back and got the oxtail, the limu poke, and the taro turnover. I missed…read morethe malasadas by a few minutes. The oxtail soup was really good: the broth seemed like it has a good amount of shoyu in it (it was dark), and had really nice beef flavor. There were also some shiitake mushrooms, which added to the umami, and fresh cilantro which, paired with the grated ginger, really complemented the savory elements. The oxtails were super tender and plentiful. The meat was well seasoned and fell off the bone. I've eaten a lot of oxtail soup, and this was really good. The limu poke was also solid. The limu was a nice touch: it's not as frequent to see it on the mainland, and I like the smoky flavor it imparts on the poke. The taro turnover was a revelation. It was so good it didn't make it to photos. The pastry crust was flakey, the taro was warm and sweet, and the Carmel drizzle was really nice. It does take 20 minutes to get the turnover, but I think it's worth it.

Not sure if it was an off day but portions were lackluster and what we ordered was nothing special…read more I got the loco Moco. For $17 I expected to get two patties. Just got one and it was pretty dry. Gravy was nothing special. Mac salad was pretty bland until I added some white pepper. The garlic shrimp was a puny portion of five small shrimp. Pretty disappointing.. have had much better Hawaiian places in Vegas.

Found this place thru Yelp and decided to eat here from the great reviews…read more Walked into a beautiful waiting area that felt very welcoming - bigger than it looks from the outside. We were seated as soon as we walked in. Our server was friendly and quick - no complaints. We ordered the Katsu Curry Chicken (you can choose chicken or pork), Donburi Katsu Chicken, Karaage chicken, side fries and shishito peppers. Everything we ordered was delicious. The chicken katsu on both donburi and curry was so juicy. The karaage chicken was great- the fry on it was perfect. Shishito peppers were also delicious. Everything tasted great.

There are several seating arrangements. Japanese music is playing in the background. Very enjoyable with a meal. There is outdoor seating as well. Owners are very kind and welcoming! This is a family-run restaurant, Chef Mark truly takes the time to get to know his customers, making every visit feel like a warm, welcoming experience. The food is amazing. Everything that we have tried was perfection!!! We have got the Wagyu Menchi Katsu Burger, which comes with fries in the cute little tower. Great presentation. It was delicious, very flavorful. Katsu is very tasty, nice texture, and good quality meat. Their Katsu's are crispy, tender, and cooked to perfection, but my favorites on the menu are : the katsu curry and the menchi katsu burger-both packed with incredible flavor. It's a MUST TRY! Overall: Pricing is reasonable for the portions and quality. Staff are very courteous and hospitable. Highly recommend Kiyoshi Katsu House for anyone craving high-quality, authentic Japanese comfort food! Thank you Chef Mark for this wonderful dining experience!

I haven't eaten out much during pregnancy and postpartum, but I was so excited to finally be able…read moreeat tuna again after birth! Cue Poke Express. After taking baby to an appointment and running a couple errands, I saw Poke Express just across from FedEx and was obviously tempted lol So I went in and ordered my old usual favorite--furikake ahi tuna with rice and a side of the seaweed salad. And let me tell you... wow! So dang good (as usual). But something just hit the spot even more this time around. Maybe it was just that I haven't had this dish in about a year now! And the other thing being that I wasn't able to have rice due to gestational diabetes during pregnancy since it spiked my blood sugar. Anyway, this place is as tasty as it's always been! As for service? It was fine. I feel like it just depends on who's working the counter whenever you visit. Sometimes they are super nice, sometimes not (but I've never had someone be rude or mean). All around, I can't complain. I went in around midday and there was a super short line. Service was fine enough. I was in and out within 5 minutes!

For the first time, I got into this store without a long line out the door. Unfortunately, I was so…read moreupset by what happened inside that I couldn't even eat my food. Two men who were complete strangers came in after me. When my order was called, one of them lifted my skirt and grabbed my ass. I then found myself sandwiched between these two large men while trying to get my order. There wasn't even a line at that point. I confronted them. I was visibly angry and telling them to get away from me, yet no member of the staff stopped to ask what had happened or whether I was okay. Everyone simply kept things moving. I understand that the restaurant is not responsible for the behavior of every person who walks through its doors. But it is responsible for managing its space and paying attention when a customer is being harassed or assaulted directly in front of staff. Please improve how you manage the pickup/line area and train employees to recognize when something is clearly wrong. If you see two men unnecessarily crowding a woman who is by herself while she is loudly confronting them, take 30 seconds to ask, "Are you okay?" I shouldn't have been sexually assaulted while picking up lunch and then left feeling as though nobody in the room cared enough to even ask what happened.

That being said, this place is decent for the $20/person price. I did expect a few more options but the selection was not bad. I know Cebuchon (Cebu style lechon) is supposed to be famous but I didn't think it was much better than other lechon I've had. I did love their fried fish! Most other dishes I couldn't tell you what they're called (as there were no signs or labels). They also had bilobilo which is such a delicious dessert. It actually wasn't too sweet so we could've enjoyed it while eating the main dishes. I was also disappointed that there was no lumpia. Maybe it's a Hawaii thing BUT all Filipino gatherings typically have lumpia so an AYCE without lumpia is not the best for me. The location is not very big, they have a decent amount of tables but as we were nearing the end of our meal, we did see people waiting for a table (though they didn't wait too long).
