    Food is good for the price. Weve been coming here for years. I wanted to post new pics of the menu for reference.

    Meat Jun Combo with shrimp.

    Whoa, they do not slice up Meat Jun like the other Korean Restaurants. Plus, I tasted more of the egg than meat. ‍

    Favorite place to get my fast food KBBQ. Portion is not as much as other places but the taste and freshness always hits. Placed a phone order and person was polite and nice! Upon pick up she was as pleasant! Just hoped the portion were more.

    Tried here for the first time bc Waikele has been nuts with the traffic lately lol. I ordered the kalbi meat jun combo which cost $22.99. I must say it's pricey but show me a Korean plate that is not anymore. This was worth it. The flavors were ono. And I'm one to not use sauce so the meat jun was good even without the sauce. As for the service, our cashier/server was so nice! She matched my shoyu veggies together, just how I like it! The place was clean but we didn't eat there. It was also empty, but it was a Sunday evening so probably slow anyway. Overall I really liked this place and will go there again over Waikele BBQ. It's farther from our house but worth the drive. Btw my BF got the spicy chicken wings and he said it was good. But he didn't like the Mac salad.

    Tried this place for the first time because we wanted to try more restaurants near us, and I'm glad we did. I got the BBQ Chicken plate, and with how good everything tasted, I would go back and get the exact same thing. I appreciated the lady preparing my plate, she was very generous with how much of each side she was giving, especially the long rice (always my go-to side at places like this.) Everything in this plate was very flavorful. I listed my exact order in the picture description, highly recommend.

    I never heard about this place until they started doing a fundraiser for schools in the area. My school is one of them who the Kunia Shopping Center will be rewarding. BBQ Hut is a korean food take out place. They have a pretty wide assortment of food there. I decided to get the fish jun and meat jun combo mini. We phone ordered and went to pick up. It was cooked up really quick and I only had to wait a few minutes for my order once I got there. The mini is huge. There was a big piece of fish jun and a big piece of meat jun in that combo. I really enjoyed the fish jun. It was a good piece of fish and very tasty. The meat jun was good but I've had better at different places. Overall though, if you haven't tried this place, you should give it a try.

    Yummy for my tummy!

    So I came here to get the spicy beef, I was surprised that the beef was in good bite size portions because many places the beef is in shreds. They are so busy, lady behind the counter is pleasant and quick! I also got the spring rolls which is nice. Check out this place I was not disappointed and I don't think you'll be too!

    Sometimes when we visit my in-laws and we don't feel like cooking we'll pick up a couple of the regular plate lunches from BBQ Hut and split it 4 ways. Fairly priced for the amount of food you get. On our most recent visit, we ordered the meat Jun and bbq chicken combo for take away. It came with 2 scoops of rice and 4 sides. Right now the dining room is not open, and they have measures in place such as having employees and customers wear masks, plexiglass divider and table at the cashier counter to ensure a 6' distance, limiting number of customers inside at once, and other social distancing reminders. For the actual taste of the plate lunch, it is decent- closer to 3.5 stars imo but I want to positively support local as much as I can during these trying times.

    Meat Jun

    I wouldn't pay $37 for two plate of meat jun if it wasn't good. They are generous with the portion but not for the sauce. They charge 25 cents if I want extra sauce but it was in little container that I had to get 5 for our large meat. Container was so tiny that it spilled on the plate instead of our meat. Not happy. Get a larger container please if u gonna charge us for it.

    I wanted fast but that didn't happen. I should've planned better. Busy Friday night and people don't know how to read signs. No social distancing at all! Placed my order and waited outside. Little bit off a language barrier when taking my order. Ordered a fish jun plate and a kalbi and meat jun combo. I love the veggies so flavorful! Plates took about 15-20 minutes to come out. When I picked up the plate it was heavy! Good portions but the price was expensive as well 17.99 for the combo! Not my first choice for Korean food but it was ok.

    The food is overpriced for the quality. It's inconsistent--at times overly salty, and the meat jun is often too thin.

It was so good that we've already visited twice (once on Christmas and again on New Year's Eve), and everything was cooked to perfection. My other half said this was the best spicy pork he has ever had. It's incredibly flavorful and a must-try. I ordered Kalbi on our second visit to satisfy a craving. It was super yummy with just the perfect amount of char. We also absolutely loved the meat jun and fish jun, those will definitely be our go-to orders from now on! The sides change daily, so it's a fun surprise to see what you get. Everything we tried appealed to all our taste buds, not one complain here. You can tell the staff really takes the time to put some love into their cooking. Since everything comes out super fresh, you do have to wait a little bit for your food, but they provide comfortable seats to wait on, and trust me, it is 100% worth the wait. This has officially become our go-to place whenever we are craving Korean food.

Kalbi was tender and had good flavor, Meat Jun, although on the thin side, was also VERY tasty. They don't give the option of choice of sides, rather they give whatever they make for the day, which changes daily. I received a combination of 6 different sides, ama they all tasted fresh and homemade. What was new to me was a potato hash and corn salad, it was ONO! This is going to be my go-to Korean restaurant in Waipahu.

I had driven past Y'kele Korean BBQ and thought that I should give them a try... Located across the street from the outlets, the Waikele Center has many restaurants such as Restaurant Kunio, Panda Express, Subway, Chili's, and McDonald's. There's a lot of free shared parking, but it can get crowded at times. The interior is clean, bright, and air-conditioned. There are many tables and chairs for dining in. Service was pleasant and efficient. I ordered and paid at the counter, then took a seat. In no time my meal was ready. I was so hungry that I took a picture quickly and then started eating. There was so much food that I took the rest home. I got the Y'kele special: BBQ chicken, kalbi, and BBQ beef. It came with four sides. I chose tofu, corn, choi sum and seaweed. Everything was delicious! I'd return because it's convenient, tasty, and satisfying!

After picking his sides, my husband went to sit down at a table while I took care of the payment. Unfortunately, they swiped my bank card multiple times saying it's reading error. They asked if I had cash, which I did, and I was able to pay for our food. Something didn't right with me after I paid so I told my husband to check our bank account and make sure multiple payments wasn't withdrawn from our account. Just as I thought, the payments went through and was deducted from my account. I immediately took my husband's phone up to the counter and showed them my account, verifying that the payments were withdrawn. There was also another customer standing at the counter with the same issue. The cashier was really nice about the whole situation and immediate issued a refund to both myself and the other customer. I ordered the Bi Bim Kook Soo and my husband ordered the Kalbi and BBQ chicken combo plate. The Bi Bim Kook Soo was huge and I couldn't even eat half of it. The BBQ beef was a little tough and not as flavorful as the vegetables. The noodles, sauce and vegetables mixed together were really delicious though. It had a nice sesame flavor to it. My husband had the BBQ chicken and Kalbi mixed plate, and thought it was okay. He said it wasn't as flavorful as it was before. If you eat at this restaurant, please make sure you check your credit card or bank card if you're told there was an error with your payment method.
