    Short Rib Plate
    Johanna A.

    Ana's Island Grill I'm born and raised in Hawaii, so I have high expectations, but also know that there's a possibility that the food won't taste 100% like home. We walked in and Fiji was playing, so I already liked the laid back vibe. People working here were friendly. The spot is small with three tables, but it seems that most people take their orders to go anyway. You can see them cooking your food, which I like and food is cooked when you order. I ordered the laulau plate. The tossed salad was fresh and crunchy w/ dressing on it. At first look, I thought the mac salad would be dry and bland, but it was good! The laulau had a lot of pork in it. I was hoping for more luau leaves and a piece of fish, but it was still delicious. My husband had the short ribs and liked the flavor of it. We also ordered a few Spam musubis for our breakfast as we drive back home and was surprised that they make it with two slices of Spam. In summary, if we lived in the DFW area, this would be our go-to spot for Hawaiian and local food.

    This place has awesome fresh food, they take a while because they cook the food fresh. The service is ok, the ladies that were there are not very people friendly but they are not rude whatsoever. Great place to try.

    Short rib plate, chicken katsu and bbq chicken plate
    Sara K.

    Ana's Osland Grill is a great hole in the wall local spot. I'd say their musubi and otai (pineapple and watermelon drink) are the most amazing things I tried on the menu. Me and a friend arrived after a family of 4 and before another group of 2 people. We ordered the short rib plate, chicken katsu bbq plate, musubi and 2 otais (~$65 in total) to dine in and it took a while for us to get our food as they prepared it after we ordered. Unfortunately, the short rib and bbq chicken tasted very tough and overcooked, despite being freshly prepared. The macaroni was also a little too peppery for me. I'd come solely for the musubi and otai again, but I'd try the food again hoping it would be less overcooked.

    Fish & Hawaiian BBQ Chicken
    Rosalva C.

    I usually have Hawaiian food when I travel to San Francisco but this week a series of events didn't allow me to have it so I came home to DFW and searched for Island food and found Ana's Island Grill and boy was I happy to find them! It looks like a family run small place but don't let its small venue fool you, the flavors pack a good punch and the fish especially was delicious! The chicken was a just slightly on the tough side but the flavor was still good. Their service was friendly and the food was made right when ordered. The location is easy to access and the dinning room is humbly small. If you're looking for fast food just place your order ahead because they do cook it fresh so don't come in expecting your food right away. Remember they cook the meat fresh! Trust me the wait is worth it! There's only three tables so keep your parties small or place your order to go for larger parties. Give them a try and shout out your favorite dish.

    Teriyaki price + bbq chicken plate
    Nick G.

    Ambiance: this place is more of a "hole in the wall" but very good! They have seats inside but I would consider it more of a takeaway spot! Still very close to local food!!! A must try if you want some "local food" What did we order: -1 Teri beef + bbq chicken plate ( very good, would order again, a lot of food so you could share) -1 coconut shrimp + chicken katsu plate (10/10 best thing on the menu) Service: quick and Efficient * try the spam musubi

    OMG this food is amazing!!! I stopped in a a few weeks ago as I was traveling for work and needed some lunch. The staff was very friendly and patient with me as I tried to figure out what I wanted. The food was cooked to order and tasted amazing!! I wish there was one close to me

    Small little shop at the end of a shopping strip. Food selection is wide and my loco moco bowl was great. Perfect size for lunch!!

    Hawaiian bbq chicken plate
    Amy D.

    Tried something new and was disappointed. With tip, it was a $50 meal for what would be $30 at Hawaiian Bros. I rather support a local business but this did not meet the bar. The bbq chicken plate: rice was wet, bbq chicken tasted off- the sauce seemed okay but the chicken itself tasted funny. Macaroni salad was par and the side salad with ranch was not good and over dressed. The pork plate was similar with many of the above notes, and the pork itself was under seasoned. The best part of the meal that redeemed a lot of the visit was the musubi. They almost forgot it too. Way better than Hawaiian bros and on par for the ones I had in Hawaii. I highly recommend it! They added some teriyaki sauce on it and it was delicious. Overall, I think if the restaurant had better ac and lively music playing, it would give better vibes. When we went today it felt a bit sad with no music and hot air.

    We love Hawaiian cuisine and we're glad to have such a good spot near us. Ordered the BBQ chicken bowl and a spam musubi. They cooked the meals to order so it took a bit longer for takeout standards but we definitely prefer freshness over speed. You can order online to mitigate the wait. The chicken was juicy and flavorful and I loved the side macaroni salad. We'd def return to try the other meats, recommend!

    Small, hidden island restaurant. A little humid and warm inside and limited seating inside but a couple tables to sit outside. All orders are cooked to order, our plates were served right off the griddle with rice, mac salad and simple salad with lettuce & dressing. Customer service was nice, very friendly.

    Closest thing to being home in Hawaii around. Made to order homestyle local kine food. Not a cookie cutter chain. Quality service.

    Is this place open still? Have tried calling several days, but nobody answers. Online ordering doesn't work.

    Excellent Service...and food. Kylie Enjoyed the atmosphere…read morewith a nice vibe. Will be coming back again real soon.

    My girlfriends and I were craving a good seafood boil, and I suggested Kickin Crab since I drive by…read moreit every Tuesday on my way to bowling league. It's always packed, so I figured it had to be worth trying, and it definitely was! The restaurant is located in a great shopping plaza with an Asian market, boba shops, bakeries, and other stores, making it a fun area to explore before or after your meal. We were seated immediately, which was a pleasant surprise. The restaurant had a fun, energetic atmosphere with great music playing, making it the perfect spot for a girls' night. We started with a few appetizers: garlic noodles, Kickin Wings, and raw oysters. I didn't personally try the oysters, but my friend really enjoyed them. The Kickin Wings were my favorite appetizer! They were hot, crispy, and packed with flavor. The garlic noodles were just okay in my opinion, but the shrimp added to them was delicious. For our seafood boils, we ordered the Special Combo, which included 1/2 lb head-off shrimp, 1/2 lb snow crab, one potato, and sausage for $34.99, with the option to add more items for an additional charge. The seafood was fresh, well-seasoned, and flavorful. My only minor complaint was that the boil bag felt a little small, making it a bit difficult to really dig in and mix everything together the way I like. Overall, we had a great experience! The food was delicious, the service was friendly, the atmosphere was lively, and it was the perfect place to catch up with friends over seafood. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm craving a seafood boil. Would definitely recommend!

Recently we have noticed a 'gnat' issue that really needs to be addressed. During our meal we killed a couple of the little buggers, but several more were there to take their place immediately. An occasional gnat is one thing, but when they interrupt the entire meal, that is excessive and needs to be addressed. We will be back, but we hope this gets addressed- ***Update 2.06.2026 The Tilapia sandwich has been my go to for years but STILL, the issue with this restaurant is the gnat problem!

The soups hit the spot on a chilly night after shopping. Our Half/Half Iced Tea was absolutely perfect. We had the Shiner Fish & Chips and the Seafood Platter with Blackened Catfish and fried shrimp with grilled veg and mashed potatoes. For desert; because our waitress Allison twisted our arms so we got the New Orleans Breaded Pudding with Whiskey Sauce. Our dining experience was greatly enhanced with live music (Wednesday Nights); there are other nights also. The bathrooms were clean. This is an old downtown building and that factors in. We love the character of the restaurant and the wait staff was very friendly. Go!!
