I always love trying new places and was super excited to try Bowlz, especially since we had hit just about every other pokey place nearby. So this was super exciting to go try. When you find the place, the logo for the restaurant is actually very understated, but once you walk through the doors it's a brave New World! So many great things to try. We started out with a small portion of the fried ribs and let me tell you, these things were amazing! And when I say small order, we could not finish the whole plate. We had to bring stuff home. But that was cool because I had some for later! I had the poke bowl and it was worth every penny. This thing was huge. I love me, fresh fish and man. This one delivered. My girlfriend had the Kahlua pork and rice and it was very very good as well. When I say there was a lot of food, I am not kidding, although I did finish the poke bowl, we brought home ribs and half of the Kahlua pork for later. Super delicious and flavorful. The ambience of the place is great, feels like a very cool little dark hole in the wall.. which I guess it is, but man the flavors are so on point. The staff is very eager to give suggestions, so this place should be on your shortlist of places to go check out. Bottom line? You definitely have to go to this place and try their food. It is jam-packed with flavor, and nothing on the menu is bad. And don't forget to get yourself an order of those ribs!

Bowlz Pac $20. Tater sauce and macaroni salad was given separately. I forgot to add it into this photo. It's in our poke photo by accident.

Wowowow!!!! Gourmet quality Hawaiian bowls/plates and poke in a casual setting with decent prices!!! Everything was next level! We've never had fried chicken so deeply fried with no grease, no oil left in a bite. The chicken's insides was so soft. Poke which feels like you're back in Hawaii vs US mainstream fusion styles (which we love too). Hawaiian acquaintance's favorite Hawaiian food shop (poke and bowlz). Purist/traditional food where you don't find dairy added into random things!! Traditional/purist eaters, dairy-free and just FOODIES will love this place. Not your typical sugar drenched American style Hawaiian food? Is this how legit Hawaiian food is supposed to taste like?????!!! Poke 1 Choice $16 (we picked salmon, spicy mayo) - The spicy mayo is popular. Also it's dairy-free, mayo eggs!! The acquaintance really liked this place because of the poke fresheness, and ease of eating it right away. - We're huge fans of Poke Express (southwest location; north isn't that good) so we're curious to try this place out. Staff told us that poke here is fresh and Poke Express is frozen. We got takeout to eat on our way to visit LA (this place is located south on the way out). - In comparison to like Poke Express, the chucks were bigger and you can taste the salmon. Poke Express like a US fusion taste, a bit more saucey at times. We love both this place and Poke Express. Because we are not usual Hawaiian food eaters, I feel that Pole Express is cheaper and does the job well with for us. We are the type to keep our raw seafood (including sushi) quality just low enough where it's affordable everyday. Of course there's always better, but we rather have more poke over time vs once in awhile. Bowlz Pac $20 2 SCOOPS RICE W/ FURIKAKE, FRIED CHICKEN, FRIED MAHI MAHI W/TARTAR SAUCE, SPAM, RIBEYE TERI BEEF, SPAM, TAKUAN CHOICE OF MAC SALAD OR HOUSE SALAD. - We wanted a meat plate with multiple things, and couldn't decide on customizing. FYI, their tater sauce and macaroni salad are dairy-free, only mayo eggs!!!! - Staff mentioned the Bowlz (not combo) is better. Can't wait since we love most of our Bowlz Pac. Dairy Allergy: This place must be a purist place = traditional where dairy isn't used in their meats, katsu, fried items, etc. Don't know what's up with the States. Every restaurant usually likes to add dairy into things, from ramen, scrambled eggs, to mayo sauces (different from aioli). Looking forward to trying any thing fried here. This is coming from someone who isn't a fried person. I think maybe I just haven't found places where it's not greasy oily. Id imagine with pancreatic pains from that could possibly enjoy this place! Oo I signed up for phone number rewards and discount texts. And got a great offer! "Bowlz LV: Enjoy a discount on your next order! Save $5 with code: WELCOME6924. Reply STOP to opt out". Tks DJ Vin for this suggestion!!

Went to Bowls LV in Southern Highlands with a group of friends the other day, and everything we tried was absolutely delicious! We got to try a variety of dishes, and there was so much flavor in everything. The owner showed us so much love and shared his story about bringing the Hawaiian food he grew up loving to Las Vegas. You can really feel the passion behind the food and the experience. It was such a great spot to enjoy good food and good company. Definitely a place I would recommend checking out if you're craving some Hawaiian food in Vegas!

This was my first time here as I walked in I was greeted by the cashier. She was friendly and I told her I need a minute to look at the menu. So many choices but I landed on a couple of things. First was the hot dog musubi, 1 pound of shoyu poke and poi mochi balls. I forgot the pictures! For the main course I ordered the bento box that came with chicken hot dog, spam and fried noodles. The other plate was the lechon kawali. This was my only complaint the pork was over cooked so much that the pork was dry and not juicy. The hot dog musubi was good and the poi mochi balls were tasty. The poke was just ok. My total was $94.75 dam, to me this is a little high for food. The pork plate was $20.00 not worth it in my opinion it was cooked really bad. I would come here again to try other things as the rest of the food was really good. Any way give this place a try a happy eating!!!

I wanted Islander food and I wanted to try Bowlz LV located in Southern Highlands. There were a few booths. I looked at the decor and noticed the signs. I liked that they are affiliated some how with Side Street Inn as I used to go there a lot back in the day. I wanted to order everything on the menu so I narrowed it down to a 2 bentos. Being from Hawaii and talking story with the older Japanese lady workers, that itself made the service good. However, one would say I'm biased. Susan C. was very nice and sweet. I believe she was the Aunt of the owner. I had to ask her to remove one of the bentos on the receipt as I did not order it. She did and apologized which was perfectly fine with me. My to go order was served first (even though I ordered it after my dine in order.) Food: Bento Bowl - 1 Scoop Rice No Furikaki, Fried Chicken, Fried Noodles, Spam, Red Hotdog Bowlz Pac with Macaroni Salad, 2 Scoops Rice with Furikake, Fried Chicken, Fried Mahi Mahi with the BEST TARTER Sauce, Rib Eye Teri Beef, Spam, and 1 piece of Takuan Roast Pork with Gravy - To Go with Kimchee 1/2 Dozen Poi Mochi The Bento Bowl gave me a chance to try the different foods. I like the fried noodles. It was plain with green onions. The flavor was there. The Spam and hot dog was yummy. The fried chicken was a bit disappointing for me. I wanted the garlic chicken but since there was no substitutions I didn't ask. The chicken had no flavor at all. It needed salt. The Teri Beef was yummy. So tender and flavorful. Tupac says the tarter sauce for the fish was the best ever. Lastly, the roast pork was very tender and delicious. I loved how the gravy was smothered all over the rice. Overall, it was a great meal. For dessert, I ordered Poi Mochi. I was so excited to eat this. It was delicious and it hit the spot. Overall, if you're looking for a local Hawaii spot, Bowlz LV is the place to visit. I will try the Pork Ribs next time because I was told that it's like Side Street Inn Pork Chops.

Ahi furikake belly w/ kimchi and 1/2 poi makhi
Katherine M.

We enjoyed the food and atmosphere with lively staff all from Hawai'i. Most authentic Hawaiian food in Las Vegas NV. Please look at these pictures of my food. It was delicious. The have a St Louis street location but I went to the southern highlands location. My daughter had the kimchi fried rice and sunny side fried egg. I had garlic chicken and macaroni salad and rice. We shared a chocolate cream pie and fried rice cakes. We also sampled ahi belly.

From the moment you walk in the smell of the food was amazing. The service was friendly and presentation of the meal was desirable. I took one bite and the flavors were just yummy. I am already thinking of what to order next time I come back before I finish my bowl in front of me. Highly recommend if you want quality and quantity in a meal.

Miso Salmon. Simple but super delicious
Angelica M.

I was convinced to try this place because my sister that recently gave birth was begging for some sushi bombs and this place definitely have them. For a Hawaiian I initially thought it was a few dollars more than some of the other spots BUT quality was worth it. I am especially obsessed with the miso salmon With side salad. I have tried their ribs and meat Jun as well. Plenty of meat. They had this custard puff pastry and it's so delicious I crave it. Similar to a Mille feuille. They are always quick and friendly. Limited booths if you wish to dine in so I am a to go kind of girl!

The food is AMAZING!!! Service was great! The whole vibe of the restaurant was very pleasant. The owner Chef Trevis was so friendly & professional.

Garlic chicken didn't have enough flavor

I was so looking forward to trying this place for one reason! The garlic chicken! I usually have to drive 30 mins away to get it from a place I love, so I was so excited when I found out this place just opened and it was only 4 mins away from my home! I ended up ordering the garlic chicken with white rice and French fries. I'm so sad to say I was disappointed in both. While the fries were so fresh and hot they had ZERO salt so they were so bland. The garlic chicken didn't really have much flavor, it smelled way better than it tasted. While it wasn't horrible it just needed more flavor. Overall I just don't think it's worth the price that it was. I rather drive the 30 mins to get the same thing for $12 and way better flavor!

Miso Salmon

The miso salmon and Kalbi was amazing. Service was great and the bathroom was clean. I'll definitely be back soon.

My husband and I were craving local Hawaii food and decided to do take out. We ordered a Lechon Kawali with garlic chicken and macaroni salad and a chicken katsu with garlic chicken and upgraded to fried saimen noodles with macaroni salad. The Lechon Kawali was nice and crispy and so was the chicken katsu. The garlic chicken was missing the garlic in it. It almost tasted like a mochiko chicken. I do wish there was more garlic to it. It was also soggy and too marinated. We were surprised by the total. For the Lechon Kawali and garlic chicken combo it came out to be $26 and the chicken katsu with garlic chicken and fried noodles was $30. I do wish the plates were more filled. I was surprised that the noodles didn't cover the whole bottom of the plate and the proteins weren't as stacked. Portions were overall little for the price. The service was quick and friendly and the inside was clean. I'm not sure if I will be back again, but I am glad that I tried this place out.

PASTELE LUMPIA

Good food. My kids like the teriyaki chicken. Second time here for dinner. Also ordered salt and pepper ribs and pastele lumpia.

I took a couple of months before I was able to make it here. But the wait was worth the squeeze. The quality of the beef was delicious and better than my normal go to Hawaiian food. The rice was perfectly cooked and their mac/potato salad was amazing.

I come here specifically for the beef ribs, so imagine my disappointment when I stopped by one day…read moreonly to find out they were out. I returned the very next day specifically for the ribs, only to be told they had actually been out for months. My first question is: Why wasn't that communicated the day before? A simple heads-up could have saved me an unnecessary trip. Second, if the beef ribs have been unavailable for months, why isn't that information posted anywhere online or even on the door? Customers shouldn't have to make a trip to find out that a signature menu item has been unavailable for an extended period. Things happen, and I understand that items can be unavailable. However, proactive communication goes a long way and shows consideration for your customers' time. Plesse do better with communicating important menu changes and unavailable items. A little transparency could have prevented a very frustrating experience.

There was a time when Island Flavor was the most popular Hawaiian restaurant in Vegas. Time may…read moreheal all wounds, but as things changed with management, the business was no longer in a place where it could stay in open. Thus after a couple of decades, both locations of Island Flavor shuttered less than a year ago. There are great places that live on, but unfortunately Island Flavor will not. The place was always packed. Oftentimes if I didn't already have a table or reservation, take out was the only option. This was a place for families and big groups and frankly a perfect place to feast. The food was always on point. Their locomoco, kahlua pork, and spam musubi always remained my favorites. All the other items were also excellent, and very true to Hawaiian comfort cuisine. I have a soft spot for their macaroni salad, it was creamy and decadent. Service was always kind and pleasant. While it's true Vegas has many alternatives and options for Hawaiian fare, this was definitely a loss for the greater dining community.

You MUST order the furikake chicken if you like little sweet crunchy chicken. It was so good with their glaze and furikake on top. It came with 2 scoops of rice and scoop of macaroni salad. The roast pork had good gravy but little on the drier side for the really thick parts. I really liked how the place has a lot of tables and you can order take out as well. We ordered at the counter and then got seated. Layla was very sweet and she kept checking up on us to ensure everything is good. We really appreciated her helpfulness.

The flavors were on point, and the drinks have actually become my favorite part! I just wish they had a fountain for their li hing mui drink because I could definitely see myself ordering that regularly. The space was clean and organized when we came in. I also appreciated that there weren't a bunch of messy tables left sitting around, especially while we were waiting for our food. The poke that came with our dish was surprisingly delicious and tasted really fresh too. I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did! Overall, we really didn't have any complaints aside from the pricing, which again, is pretty expected for a casino-based restaurant.

The plate was a little over $20, but the portion was generous so pretty reasonable for 2026. Also a little strange they don't have fountain drinks, just canned sodas and Hawaiian sun juices/lemonades. Service unfortunately brought our visit down. The host/cashier seemed disinterested, didn't acknowledge our tip when she watched me drop it in, and when my dad asked for utensils after waiting 5 or so minutes after the food was dropped off she responded in a raised tone: "I'm bringing all of that out." After we cleaned and stacked our dishes at the end she finally smiled and was thankful. Wish we got that version of her from the beginning. Food was pretty authentic & good enough where I'd give them another shot.
