Decided to try this place because we like Hawaiian food. We miss the plate lunches we had there. I got the beef and chicken plate with fried rice and extra veggies. My wife got the chicken katsu and beef plate with Mac salad. We also got spam musubi's. Positives: Clean restaurant. Very nice service. Big portions. Everything tasted good. Negatives Kinda cost a lot. But I guess everything is nowadays. A lot of bone and uneatable fat on Kalbi. They also had poke bowls and Hawaiian drinks. Definitely would go back. read more

Aloha Hola was such a great find! From the moment I walked in, the place felt bright, spacious, and extremely clean, making it a really comfortable spot to sit and enjoy a meal. I ordered the Signature Hawaii BBQ Mix, and the portion size was huge. The meats were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. While the fried rice was a little mild, it actually complemented the bold, savory meats really well instead of overpowering them. The Philly Steak Egg Rolls were amazing--crispy on the outside, stuffed, and full of flavor. Definitely a must-try appetizer. I also had the Peached Berry Tea, which was so good I saved some for later. The resealable lid was such a nice touch and made it super convenient. What really stood out was the service. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and took the time to explain the menu and give great recommendations, which made the experience even better. Overall, amazing food, great service, and a clean, welcoming atmosphere. I'll absolutely be back to try more! 430 Newtown Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23462 read more

First time here and so glad we stopped in. Our family needed a quick dinner spot on the way home, and this place ended up being a great find. I wish I knew the name of the gentleman working that evening because he truly took care of us from start to finish. He made thoughtful recommendations, took our order, brought out the food, and checked on us throughout the meal. That kind of all-around service really stood out and made us feel welcome. The food was really good, even for our picky eaters, which says a lot. It seemed like we ordered practically everything off the menu, from the spam musubi to the Hawaii short ribs. Everything came out fresh and flavorful, and the whole experience was smooth and easy. Definitely a solid spot for a quick, satisfying meal with great service. We'll be back! read more

The service was great as the staff answered all my questions since it was my first time there. The ambiance was more on the side of a fast food restaurant but not an issue. The food was very good. read more

Stopped by Alohahola and was pleasantly surprised! I built a poke bowl with two proteins -- spicy tuna and salmon -- and loaded it up with all the toppings and garnishes I wanted. For $13.95, it was a great deal and super filling. The fish tasted fresh, and everything in the bowl came together perfectly. I also tried the crab rangoon and the spam musubi -- both were excellent. The crab rangoon was crispy and flavorful without being greasy, and the musubi had that perfect balance of sweet and savory. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and I liked that you can order either from the kiosk or directly at the counter. The whole experience was smooth and easy. Overall, a great casual spot for fresh poke and Hawaiian bites. I'll definitely be coming back to try a few more combinations next time! read more

Sister ordered picked up so I did get to see the inside. Loco moco is my favorite whenever I get Hawaiian food. Portion size of loco moco was good but food was okay only. It was served over a bed of cabbage? (That probably made the plate look huge) The gravy and patty didn't have much flavor. The potato salad wasn't the best either. Also got the lychee rose Mille crepe cake.. couldn't taste the lychee much, but rose flavor was super strong, made me a bit nauseous after eating it. read more

Alohahola - Chicken and rice - Hawaiian Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

My family and I finally tried Alohahola on Newtown Rd. today. October 2025. Their food photos on Yelp looked very appealing to us, so we went. Here comes my frank and honest review... Very clean and clinical feeling inside. "Table sanitized" markers on each empty table. At least you know it's clean. You order at 2 kiosk stations, which we love, or you can order at the counter with a person. We went with the kiosk because we think that is a superior method. You get photos, explanations, options. And then the kitchen staff have it in writing what you want. Nothing to forget. We had 4 in our party, ages 57, 52, 18, 16. And we were starving after church. I had the bbq chicken, which was a LARGE portion of chicken thigh chunks, with fried rice, macaroni salad, and under the chicken was a sizeable bed of shredded cabbage. Listed, I'm a big guy and a big eater, and can pack some food away, and I was FULL from it. Very happy full, almost too full. I think the chicken could have used more seasoning and spices to be epic, but it was still good! Wife got the chicken with peppers and onions, forget the name, and extra spicy. It was chicken thigh chunks cooked with peppers and onions and spices and shiracha sauce on top. Also white rice and macaroni salad. HUGE PORTION! She ate half and took the rest home, and the container still felt like it weighed a few pounds! Now if you have read my other reviews, you know my wife is rather hard to please with restaurant food. She's rarely ever impressed. But today I heard her say at least 6 or 7 times that her food was really really good. I was shocked! Next my 18-year-old daughter got some type of spam Moco loco. It also with a very big portion, and she loved it! It was spam slices and egg on a bed of shredded cabbage, with white rice, macaroni salad, and a tub of gravy. She thought it was epic. Lastly, my 16 year old son who is very easy to please with food, almost will eat anything, in mountainous amounts, and go back for three and four helpings, and stay skinny... So he got the they were like fried Chicken thigh chunks dusted with sesame seeds and seasoning, along with the bed of thin shredded cabbage, rice, and macaroni salad. He said it had no taste, no seasoning, kind of tasted like air chunks. He took the whole thing home to season up better. He was not impressed. Other things that happened... Wife got a taro boba drink that was very good. Son got a coffee iced boba type drink, said it was good. Daughter got a slice of matcha cheesecake and it was very good but pretty tiny for almost 6 bucks. And lastly I went to order their tiramisu. Now on the order screen it shows a nine slice tiramisu that you order for $5.95, but what you get for that six bucks is literally one of those nine slices and it measured 2"x2" and 1/2" thick, so it's baby tiny for the price. And it didn't taste like tiramisu, so that was disappointing for sure. Would we go back? Absolutely yes. We want to try their short ribs and other things. But we won't be buying the tiramisu, that's for sure. read more

If you are a fan of SPAM like I am, this place is a can't miss! The Hawaiian fried rice with pineapple and SPAM may have been the best bowl of rice I've ever eaten. Portions were huge! It fed me 3 times. I'm not a portly fellow but I ain't exactly thin either. I've also had their wings. They were good sized wings. Sauce we a delight. I give this place a 10/10! read more

Super confused on how this place got so many 5-star reviews. It was overpriced and not very flavorful. All their meat is basically doused in sugary sauce and served over rice. It tastes really low quality, even for a fast casual place. The staff seemed confused by our questions regarding the difference between the types of meat. Overall, wouldn't go back here. read more

First-timer. We were very pleasantly-surprised by the quality and variety of their offerings. Delicious! and Large portions.

Came in and ordered off the kiosk, BUT the staff were very attentive and welcoming. They saw I had finished everything but my sides and brought me a bag without asking beforehand. The food didn't take long to receive and I got a pretty phenomenal portion (I got the Loco Moco). Everything was hot and fresh. Restaurant itself was very tidy, smelled and looked like I should be on a beach somewhere. Will be my go to spot for this Island Gal read more

If you're a fan of Hawaiian BBQ, please check out the new Alohahola on Newtown. We walked in late after a day of shopping and felt like we stepped into another world. The decor was so nice, music was a great vibe, and it was so clean & inviting. The service and quality are unmatched. We got some good recommendations from the staff, who were also so friendly. I am so impressed with the food too. We had the Katsu, mixed BBQ, and a chicken masubi (we don't eat pork), but everything was so good. Meat was tender and so flavorful that we didn't need tons of sauce like some bbq spots. Rice was perfect consistency and I really loved their Mac salad. I'm so happy they have this location. Can't wait to try their poke and other items. Check them out! read more

Great food, great price, legit local plate lunch hawaiian kine from Hawaii .. not quite, but close enough to fulfill your taste buds if you're from Hawaii and you hawaii'n locals are homesick.

Alohahola - Beef short ribs - Hawaiian Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

food was really good and plentiful. The restaurant was nice and clean and the service was really ni.

My wife and I walked into a clean and bright interior with pictures of the Islands on all the walls. Unfortunately, they were not playing Hawaiian music to add to the ambiance. For those of us who have been stationed in the Islands, there's so much wonderful Hawaiian music available. The staff of two young men were very nice and helpful with our order. Alohahola is more of a Hawaiian - Asian fusion bill o' fare, rather than your typical Hawaiian Drive-In, like say L&L. I ordered the Hawaiian barbecue beef short ribs and shrimp mix. Grilled shrimp in a garlicky bbq sauce. Thin slices of grilled beef marinated in a garlic, ginger, soy bbq sauce. My wife ordered the Hawaiian barbecue chicken, tender chucks of chicken, marinated in a garlic, ginger, soy, teriyaki sauce, then grilled. The portions are so generous, we could have ordered just one entree for the both of us. So, we had lots of left-overs for lunch the next day. Both entrees were great. My one complaint is with the sides. The sticky rice was not sticky enough; the macaroni salad was not creamy enough compared to what we knew in the Islands. We also ordered the Spam musubi and their Crispy Spam musubi. The Spam musubi order was two very large Spam musubi with nori wrapped completely around them. Twice the size of the musubi I ate in the Islands. They were a meal in themselves. The Crispy Spam musubi was tempura batter surrounding two very large Spam musubi fried crispy then cut into California Roll-style pieces with this gorgeous teriyaki sauce on it. My wife and I loved this appetizer. This is a real winner. They also sell Hawaiian Sun soft drinks from the Islands. Our first visit, we will be back. read more
