Great prices, good portions, good service, and there is great seatings + ambiance. Just an overall place for a quick cheap bite :) read more

The chicken katsu here is absolutely on point. Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, and sliced generously so every bite is satisfying. The breading has great flavor without being greasy, which really lets the chicken shine. The macaroni salad is a great complement--creamy, slightly sweet, and classic in the best way. It balances out the crunch of the katsu nicely and feels homemade rather than an afterthought. Portion size is very generous and easily filling. Overall, this is comforting, well-executed food that hits the spot. I'd definitely come back read more

Aloha BBQ - Fried fish - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Aloha BBQ is a convenient spot for a quick meal. I was in the area for Safeway and decided to check it out, especially to see if the loco moco was any good. It was your typical takeout-style version that gets the job done. The gravy was very salty and watery, so I was glad it came on the side and not on top. The eggs were cooked to my preference and the patties tasted like standard frozen beef. They give a generous portion of rice, though the macaroni salad was a bit too mushy for me. The food came out fast and the staff were efficient, which made the visit smooth. There was plenty of seating inside and everything looked clean and well kept. Parking is mostly on the street but there is a Safeway lot right across if needed. If you are in the area and want something filling without much of a wait, this place is a solid option. read more

Yummy Hawaiian food, good prices and very close to my house! What more could I want? I also like Hawaiian Drive In but sometimes they close earlier and only take cash so Aloha is another option. read more

Got some food here before my haircut. It's a pretty straightforward setup, walk up, order, then wait for your food to come out. It was pretty sparse inside because most people do takeout or do DoorDash from here. Oh, they also take credit cards so that's a plus! The food itself is pretty good. I got the Atkins mini and my friend got the Hawaiian bbq chicken. Chicken was tender, flavorful, and juicy! It's the standard rice and the Macaroni salad was the generic stuff that other Hawaiian places serve. Overall it's a pretty good place and I hope to be here more often! read more

Aloha BBQ - Chicken Katsu Mini - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

3.5 STARS We wanted Hawaiian food. Decided to try Aloha BBQ since we found it on DoorDash. We place our lunch delivery order on Sunday, June 21st 2:08pm. It arrived at 2:57pm. We live in Outer Richmond. *BBQ Mix Plate: Barbecue beef, short ribs, and chicken, Macaroni Salad ($14.75) *Loco Moco: Hamburger patties over rice covered with brown gravy and topped with eggs, Regular, Macaroni Salad, White Rice, Medium ($12.95) *Kalua Pork: Regular, Macaroni Salad, White Rice ($12.95) *Grilled Spam Musubi: Trio ($7.80) *Cheeseburger: Single, Medium ($5.85) *Macaroni Salad ($3.55) I always end up ordering a mix plate since I love both beef and chicken. This one was pretty good. A nice smokiness to the meats. Also, portion wise, a good amount of rice and chicken. I was also craving a loco moco, so decided to try it here. The burger patty was really dry and chewy. And the gravy didn't have much flavor. It was disappointing. But I did enjoy the spam musubi. Just squeeze some sriracha on it and I'm set! Good for their bbq plates and musubi, but I'd stay away from the loco moco. Not enough flavor and the meat was tough! read more

Food is decent but its too expensive for the portion size. Very similar to L&L and Hawaiian drive-in. The mac salad was dry and the short ribs barely had any meat on them. read more

Me and my family were just starving looking for a place to eat and all of a sudden were like. Let's just pull over and try this place out. I ordered the spam fried rice, and my family had the loco moco as well as the Hawaiian bbq. While we were waiting the reviews were scaring me but they were from years ago. What they're doing now I'm sure these guys will satisfy you. The food was good, friendly staff, and one of the workers gave my niece a free popsicle. I forgot to take pictures because we demolished the food read more

Great Hawaii plates. Excellent macaroni salad! Generous portions and their various sauces are all very tasty.

I found a black dot on my Katsu. I thought it was a burnt piece of meat, good thing I checked it was a fly.. I ordered 4 things through Uber Eat. I am throwing everything away. Good thing I didn't feed my son. The other person found a screw in his food. This is such a careless mistake. It's not even a tiny fruit fly, sometimes they can jump into a cook food however this one is battered with Katsu together. They must don't cover the batter mix. read more

The short ribs are smaller and more chewy with more fat and stringy parts and only a little bit of meat comparing to Hawaiian Drive Inn. Indicating the quality. Also I asked for veggies instead of all the sides in my combo and they literally just gave me more of the free lettuce base that comes with anything. So disappointed. It's literally no sides then why am I paying for the sides? The other places when I asked they always give me broccoli. The chicken is ok, standard level. Would choose another place next time, not really worth the money. read more

Typical Hawaiian style food. Quick and a few more options than other places. Meat was a little tough but might've been just mine. Definitely worth a try. read more

Does not look like much driving by but we were craving Hawaiian bbq after our long day out. Reviews caught our attention and we decided to give it a try. The menu has a wide variety of options. I'm not a big fan of huge menus as it usually means that some of the dishes are sure to be questionable. My suspicions were correct with the shrimp simirin, it was basically instant noodles with 4 small shrimps which was quite disappointing. The spam misubi combo redeemed the meal. I'm probably unlikely to revisit. read more

ATTENTION! *RUSTY SCREW* FOUND IN THE FOOD. I don't typically give a shit about crappy food or crappy service but THERE WAS A SCREW IN THE FOOD. We're currently on the phone with the store and the manager isn't in. Saying we'll get a call tomorrow. Fuck that, you guys have to contact your manager on their off time and resolve this shit. You see those pictures????? Holy fuck Not to mention, the Loco Moco I ordered is garbage. The patty is really hard and feels stale. read more

I walked past this place recently because of the negative reviews here, but then I got tempted by delivery and I gotta say, Ya'll are ALL WRONG. This place is deeelicious. For starters, this place has some of the best Kalua Pork you'll find outside of the islands. I've been trying to cut back on rice and I seriously couldn't help myself from devouring it just because of all the tasty sauces that got on it. The Mac salad is the bomb. The serving is very generous but you won't want to stop eating. They also have an Atkins combo. Yes, it's outdated... we call it Keto now and do you know how hard it is to find keto-specific stuff? Instead you always gotta modify your burger to a lettuce wrap and hold the sauce and...ugh it's a mess. Anyway like I was saying, this Atkins combo is a sweet deal. Tons of meat; it seriously was like 3 meals for me. It's not cheap but it sure ain't pricey, either. I'd happily order from this place again. read more

Aloha BBQ - Generous servings of F1. Regular Kalua Pork and Atkins BBQ Plate - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Nope. Dry, flavorless rice, dry grilled beef, w no taste, thin , small piece of breaded fish, that was usable as a coaster. 3 dry frozen shrimp with zero taste. All this was laid over shredded, RAW cabbage( it should be grilled or steamed. ) No sauce, no flavor, no appeal, and over priced. Only checked it out because " drive in" ( coupla blocks away) was closed. No comparison. I wanted to like it, but day um!! Sorry read more

Aloha BBQ- Mission Street in San Francisco Restaurant is on super pedestrian heavy Mission Street in San Francisco. It is basically one of the many forms of "Hawaiian BBQ plate lunch" places that can be found all over the city. Inside is very much like mom and pop plate lunch joints- not a bad thing...but too bad the food didn't deliver. When we went, the restaurant was packed with the after school crowd. The employees were either intimidated or didn't care that the teens were running amok inside the restaurant, banging yelling and swearing up a storm. We ordered beef and lamb skewers with broccoli and a salad. Both beef and lamb were under seasoned and over cooked. The broccoli was cooked to the point of being limp. I suspect it was microwaved because the texture was uneven. Portion size was super small for the price. The skewers came with a soy dipping sauce that was watery. Not a great dining experience at Aloha BBQ. Rather ironic, because this area of Mission is loaded with a variety of wonderful restaurants, with an emphasis on Chinese food. I would probably check out one of the neighborhood options rather than return to Aloha BBQ again. read more

Everyone has cravings, even my wallet. Yes, my wallet. Sometimes it craves a cheap and filling meal with leftovers (gotta stretch that dollah), and that sometimes came last week. Previously Lin's Café (Chinese BBQ Deli & Restaurant), Aloha BBQ opened about 2 weeks ago, and thanks to Wilhelm Y.'s FTR for putting it on my radar. The menu offers standard Hawaiian fast food fare of bbq, rice plates, musubi, burgers, saimin, and etc, however, they also have some Chinese dishes: egg rolls, potstickers, fried rice, etc. They also offer party trays. Prices are about $.50 - $2 more than longtime neighborhood favorite, Hawaiian Drive Inn which is just down the block. I don't mind paying slightly higher prices but if you're going to charge more than your competitor, you better one up them. The food is comparable (decent to fill your stomach but not something I crave) but the wait is twice as long. We ordered pick-up via the yelp app and it took 20 minutes in an empty restaurant (found parking in front). Hawaiian Drive Inn can churn out orders in less than 10 minutes with a line out the door. However, Aloha BBQ accepts credit cards AND they deliver. We ordered the A1: Seafood Combo w/ Basa fish, fried shrimp & BBQ short ribs ($8.75): http://bit.ly/1dPQwCI and A4: Half & Half w/ chicken katsu & BBQ short ribs ($8.75): http://bit.ly/1zOu475. It's hard to phuck up fried foods so the chicken katsu was predictably decent albeit a tad dry. The accompanying sweet & sour gravy did help to provide some moisture so that was fine. The rice and mac is better than Hawaiian Drive Inn (not mushy). Avoid the short ribs which were insanely salty and laced with msg. I didn't try any of the seafood so I can't vouch for that. Portions were massive so we had plenty of leftovers for another meal but I also had to order some musubis as they're my benchmark for testing any good Hawaiian restaurant. One word: pathetic: http://bit.ly/1IRSnmb. They spam was pathetically thin compared to how much rice they pack in. I love rice and so do my thunder thighs but my goodness, please use less rice or use thicker cuts of spam. Not sure why there was only sauce on one musubi and not the others. Anyhow, we just ate the spam and tossed the rice. If you're not picky, and looking for a cheap AzN restaurant that provides a filling meal with leftovers and accepts credit cards then Aloha BBQ may be for you. As far as one upping their competitor, it's clean so you won't leave with your face looking like Kim K's greasy ( I ) on Paper mag (not hating, she has a nice bootylicious ass). read more

Hey brudda, it ain't no joy ride to get here. Man, I'd climb a volcano for cheap Hawaiian eats, but we're really talking about the Outer Mission. That's one long ride on the increasingly aromatic MUNI 14 line or a long march from the Balboa Park BART station. Or you could drive but what's the fun in that? You can recognize the place from the bright orange awning. Aloha, brudda. Enter and there's no doubt you're in a fast food joint, and it takes a while to absorb the highly detailed menu on the wall. I saw the usual suspects like kahlua pork, spam musubi and loco moco but also a section of "healthier" plates and even Aloha Atkins BBQ plates for those eating low carb. That would not be me on that particular evening. Given all the choices, I went with the most predictable one for someone who hasn't had authentic Hawaiian food in a while, the $8.75 "BBQ Mix Plate Plate" (their verbiage). For that bargain price, it was a hefty amount of food they put into my takeout carton, slabs of marinated barbecue beef, short ribs and chicken with two scoops of rice and one scoop of macaroni salad (photo: http://bit.ly/1fFXwCM). I'm not sure why they put it in a takeout carton since I told them I was eating there, or maybe they were cutting the middleman since they resumed I couldn't finish it in one sitting. Think again, brudda. As I was gnawing on the surprisingly tender meat, I noticed they make saimin here. Saimin? Damn, I love saimin. Even I have my limits, sorta, but I can't pass up saimin, can I? So once i was done with my BBQ plate, I ordered the $5.15 Aloha Saimin to go, another bargain and even the Spam Saimin was only $3.99. I took it home and ate it the following day reheated at work. It turned out the Aloha version contained pieces of barbecue beef and chicken atop soft wheat egg noodles swimming in a salty dashi broth (photo: http://bit.ly/1ez9QE1). Even reheated, it was pretty delicious. Just so you know, I would kick the best ramen out of bed for a bowl of saimin. That's how much I like saimin. Anyway, the owners don't look like Hawaiians, just a pleasant Asian family who didn't speak much English. I'm sure I'll take that bus ride again just for the saimin. FOOD - 3 stars...barbecue plate was middling even if the excess amount was impressive, the saimin was better but that may just be me AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...fast food central, baby SERVICE - 3 stars...very nice and very quiet TOTAL - 3 stars...is a trek to the Outer Mission worth it for some cheap Hawaiian food?...let me try that saimin again read more

Don't order from Uber eats! They give you little portions compared to the other Hawaiin a few blocks down the street. I recommend going there instead for bigger portions. They be skimming you here like it's chipotle, They give you little food like a kids meal at panda express go few blocks down to the og Hawaiian! I promise it's better read more

We got Aloha BBQ via DoorDash. We did two rice plates: grilled chicken and a loco moco. We also got spam musubi. All good! The rice plates were a tad bland. I like how they cooked the chicken though - not dry. I found it odd they used lettuce instead of cabbage. But overall, pretty standard Hawaiian BBQ. Wouldn't mind getting it again. read more

I ordered delivery this morning with doordash. And the food was amazing. It wasn't burnt like L&L's BBQ. The taste of the food was outstanding. Although, I wish my spam massubi had more teriyaki sauce in it. read more

I was craving a Loco Moco and found this place on a google search. Really nice folks but the Loco Moco did not impress. The hamburger patty was not fresh hamburger. Definaltely previously frozen and tasted like a snak shack burger. Also needed more salt. The eggs were perfect but unfortunately the brown gravy lacked seasoning and this might just be me but a few green onions to garnish go along way in flavor. I wish they were part of the meal. Not bad overall bu I was hoping for more from a Hawaiian BBQ themed place. read more

This place was a block away from my old place. We only ever ordered take out but it was great every time!! I would always get the half-and-half chicken plate. This included rice, macaroni salad, friend chicken katsu and BBQ chicken. I would also sometimes get the spam masubi. The food quality was always good and they always were on time (when we were too lazy to go pick it up a block aka hung over) Would definitely recommend this place! Well priced, as well! You can definitely get 2 meals out of one plate. read more

Aloha BBQ - Spam masubi - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

Was craving some good, savory, salty food, and what better way to satisfy this than through Hawaiian food, right? I had a special deal with DoorDash in that I got free delivery, and decided to give this place a shot. Food arrived quickly (I'll give my DoorDash deliverer and Aloha BBQ equal credit for this), which was a plus. I ordered a mini Garlic Fish with Brown Rice and Tossed Salad for $7, while my dad got a Spam Musubi for $2. The pros: Good portion for a mini, lots of garlic on the white fish, which was cooked well and was offered in generous portions throughout the dish. Also, props to them for offering brown rice! The cons: "Tossed" salad was literally just pieces of lettuce (as opposed to macaroni salad, but that's to be expected when you're going healthier), and for some reason, there was this icky, thick oil that covered the bottom of the container. It got on the lettuce and the rice, and while the dish tasted good, the oil turned me off a ton. Knocking off 2 stars for that. Dad reported that his spam musubi was alright (not really sure how you can mess that up, though), but when there's other options closer to me for Hawaiian food that I've had no qualms about, I think I'll skip Aloha BBQ next time. read more
