    Good and quick spot if you're looking for some Hawaiian food! The prices were pretty good considering they PACK!! their plates. We got one combo plate (chicken katsu/beef) for around $15.99 and one beef plate for $14.99. With how much meat they give it, it can honestly be two meals. The mac salad was also yummy too. The service was quick, mainly just in and out. It wasn't busy when I went (a Sunday afternoon) and parking wasn't bad either. There was a lot of seating area and they also had a TV inside. I would come back again if I was in the area!

    An inviting sign.

    We have many choices as it comes to Hawaiian BBQ. We've been to most, but by chance we saw the Aloha Hawaiian BBQ sign. We really thought it was on Garden Grove Blvd. We found the parking and it was easy right up front. Inside we were met by a helpful young server named Karen. The lovely missus' choice was the Chicken and Beef Combo, but she did not want the leafy vegetable. She did load up on a couple of Teriyaki Sauce containers which came in real handy later on. I was a bit hesitant but then decided that for a comparison with other places, I chose the standard Hawaiian BBQ Chicken, two scoops rice and 1 scoop Mac Salad and a good portion of the leafy cabbage vegetable. It didn't take very long and a CC is accepted for payment. They have a tip jar and the lovely missus made sure some dollars were put in the jar for Karen. Wow, the carry bag is heavy and once we got home we were amazed at the abundant volume of chicken pieces and beef portion in our combos. Each was filled to the brim and I might add that the taste was as if I got it at the local drive thru in Kauai. I think we got a winner here at Aloha Hawaiian BBQ and we will be back.

    Hawaiian BBQ Mix Plate. Huge portion enough for 2

    Nice location at the Corner of Beach and Garden Grove Blvd in the Walmart parking lot. Menu is extensive and includes more than teriyaki bbq with items like Spam Musubi and other appetizers. Service was quick and friendly. They have a large seating area if you want to eat in. I ordered the Hawaiian BBQ Mix Plate with Beef, Chicken, and 1 KBBQ Style Rib this plate is big enought for 2 people or to take home for 2nds or maybe even 3rds.

    Mini Chicken Katsu

    This place was such a pleasant surprise! I drive by it all the time going to Hmart and didn't know what I wanted for dinner except I wanted something tasty. I ordered the mini meal katsu plate $11.95 including tax but really feels like a good enough full plate. Feels like 1.5-2 chicken thighs sliced up katsu, rice and Mac salad over steamed cabbage. Katsu and Teriyaki sauce as much as you'd like as a side condiment. Service is descent. Only one star less cause the area is super sketch with tons of homeless and shady things going on at that intersection.

    Where's the health inspector when you need one? These ppl gave me uncooked food; I never asked for undercooked meat. it was basically raw ground beef in the middle (and burnt around the edges). E. Coli status. There was no apology and not even an offer to replace or recook it, and I wasn't about to drive all the back to argue with them for $16.49. You can keep that. I will never eat at this f*cken place again. Disgusting.

    Curry sauce

    $42.99 for the Aloha Family Meal; comes with 3 items, rice, mac salad & vegetables - Protein options: bbq chicken, teriyaki chicken, curry chicken, curry chicken katsu, chicken katsu, bbq beef (upcharge $2.40) - 6 scoops rice - 6 scoops macaroni salad - "Vegetables" is steamed cabbage under the protein $15.99 Hawaiian BBQ mix: short ribs and bbq chicken with 1 scoop mac salad and 1 scoop rice This was our first time to Aloha Hawaiian BBQ but I had to trust the reviews and see for myself. Located in the Walmart Neighboorhood market, the area can be a hit or miss. There's typically homeless on the grassy areas but they've for the most part kept to themselves. We did witness someone come in and steal from the Dominos a few doors down and the employees were annoyed but it clearly was not the first time it had happened. Just know your surroundings. My husband wanted to try the short ribs but they do not come a la carte or as a option for the Aloha family meal, so we had to order both. While our to go order was being assembled I was given 2 containers for the teriyaki sauce which dispensed quite liquidy so I was mentally prepared to have blown $60 on a taste bud dissapointment. The bbq chicken and curry chicken are identical as they are both marinated and grilled whole thighs. The curry sauce comes on the side and although it was quite tasty and I enjoyed the kick of heat, it had congealed in the time it took to get home. Even cold, I've never had curry congeal so I'm unclear if they used flour to thicken it. Not a deterrant, just a comment...I would still try it again. "Vegetables" ended up being sheets of steamed cabbage which I enjoyed but I was hoping it would be a cold slaw to balance out the meal. BBQ beef was an upcharge and very dry with a odd jerky / overcooked texture. We were in agreement we would not order that again. The short ribs were tasty but very thin and you only get 2 in the combo meal. Personally I felt it was not worth the spend and will only be coming back for the chicken options. Teriyaki sauce was runny but did not taste watered down when I ate it. All in all, a solid replacement for my Hawaiian Loft / L&L cravings as prices had increased post pandemic and the portions felt reduced at both restaurants. We had plenty of leftovers for another meal. I will definitely add Aloha BBQ into our rotation.

    Menu

    The moment you walk smells like a homeless place. That should have been a warning sign to go back and walk out the door. I ordered the bbq plate and the beef itself tasted old. The katsu chicken was good. The short ribs was full of fat and no meat. I got diarrhea from this place so I definitely wouldn't come back. The smell had a stench of old rag. But I'm glad they were able to refund my money the same day.

    Chicken Combo

    Food portions are great and cheap and the chicken combo is amazing. The place is alright and the employees are more than great

    Doesn't seem like anyone picks up the phone during business hours when I try to call. Anyone experienced this?

    Can you email me your catering prices please?

    Hi Jacqueline. Please email me at alohabbq12880@yahoo.com or private message your email to me and I will be glad to send you all pertinent information. You are also more than welcome to call our store for detailed catering specifications. Thank you!

    How big are the portions for catering? Would 4 Medium katsu chicken, BBQ beef, shrimp, and mac salad be enough for 20 people?

    Each medium tray is enough for 10 to 15 people. 3 trays of each would be more than enough for 20. If you would like, I would recommend 2 small (each enough for 5-7) and one medium tray, along with mac salad. Thank you.

    Can someone please post a catering menu with prices?

    Hi Courtney! Please private message me your email address and I will be glad to send you catering prices. Also, you can reach us at anytime via phone so that our friendly cashiers can address any catering questions and prices including taxes. Thanks!

The dumplings are huge, generously filled, and really satisfying for the price. The kids loved them, and the all-you-can-eat option makes it a fun experience for families or groups. The quality can be a little inconsistent at times and it's definitely more of a budget-friendly comfort food experience rather than a high-end dim sum restaurant, but overall the food is tasty, filling, and fairly priced. Service was friendly, the staff kept things moving, and there are a ton of different options to try. I jokingly described it as "kind of like a Sizzler for dumplings" -- not as an insult, but because there's a huge variety of food and it has that casual, family-style comfort food vibe. If you go in expecting luxury dining, this probably isn't the place. But if you want good portions, variety, and a relaxed atmosphere, it's definitely worth checking out.

We went all out and ordered a ton of dishes including clams in basil, lobster, Peking duck, honey walnut shrimp, and shaken beef. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and perfect for sharing. Honestly, every dish was a hit with the table. Service was great throughout the night. Our server even brought the lobster out for a quick photo op before it was taken back to be prepared, which made the night feel a little more special. We ended up with around 12 main entrees plus some drinks, and the total was surprisingly affordable for the amount of food we ordered. Definitely a solid spot for group dinners and celebrations. Only downside is parking can be a bit tricky, especially on a busy weekend night, so plan a little extra time for that. Overall, would absolutely come back!
