Food was not fresh, tasted microwaved. Vegetable spring rolls were mushy. Macaroni salad was decent. I was not impressed with the food as I had higher expectations. Food looks better than it tastes. Staff was super friendly though. I would not recommend this place and I definitely would not go back again. read more

This is my second time coming here and just like the first time, I'm still amazed with how delicious their food is! My first visit I had the pineapple chicken nuggets and it couldn't have more flavorful and perfect!! This time, I ordered the Chicken Katsu with the katsu sauce along with the pineapple sauce that I had with my pineapple chicken nuggets because the sauces are so good and sweet. And their sides are always fresh, I always get the coleslaw and I personally love that it's not over dressed, like soggy, it's always crisp and fresh I look forward to trying other things on their menu read more

Da Valley Grill - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Very disappointed with their food. I was wanting some comfort home food, I'm from Hawai'i and was craving some Hawaiian grilled food. I should've looked into the reviews more but saw that this place had 4 stars and thought this would be a good place to get my fix. I got curry chicken katsu and my boyfriend got fried fish. Honestly felt like I paid for the rice and the breading! My chicken was very thin sliced with very thick breading and very dry and my boyfriend said the same thing with his fried fish. Honestly felt like frozen food just warmed up in the microwave. And the Mac salad was trash! I also got a spicy hand roll and I never in my life had a sushi hand roll with no rice in it and it wasn't raw fish either but canned tuna! I'm sorry but this is food I'd feed to my dogs. I did not enjoy eating this and won't be going back. Hawaiian L & L is way better! read more

This place is awesome! The portions are huge and delicious. I got the katsu chicken with coleslaw and spring rolls. The employees are kind and attentive. I was very impressed with it all. I'll definitely be back. read more

Omg the food was amazing. I ordered for delivery yes it did take a hot minute to get the food. But, sweet baby Jesus it was so yummy! The Pasta salad, rice, & teriyaki chicken was on point. I will for sure be back to order more! read more

Small place, missed it the first time due to a snap on truck. Good selection on the menu of Hawaiian food. I ordered the short ribs with macaroni salad and rice. The short ribs are boneless and absolutely delicious. The macaroni salad was very flavorful, not overdressed, with little bits of carrots onions and I believe celery. Taste like a traditional meal from Hawaii. Would definitely go back if I'm in the area. read more

Got the pineapple chicken meal!!! Mmmm it was delicious! First time here. Very nice, clean family owned business!

Loco moco was a little disappointing - patty was tough and a little too commercial, gravy was so so. Chicken Katsu was pretty good, if I was to go back I'd get that. Crispy but chicken was a little too thin, more crust than meat. Chicken teriyaki was alright. Great job on spam masubi though! But that a pretty low bar - spam + rice rolled in seaweed. read more

Can't beat this place for lunch Try the sautéed chicken with cole slaw Dishes are packed with flavor and meals are perfect portion size I'll be back read more

Small location located in plaza that's easy to miss. Definitely a mom/pa restaurant. Owners were very nice. Lots to pick from the menu. They have speciality drinks, such as iced Thai tea, Vietnamese iced coffee, and fresh coconut. I only go to try the spam musubi. $2.50 each. They were good and still warm when I got home. I would give this place a try. Support small businesses. I will have to try other items on the menu. read more

Decided to give this place a try because it's near work and I enjoy hawaiian bbq. They don't have the biggest menu but the food is very good and the prices are very reasonable. Definitely on the list of lunch places to frequent in the area! read more

I stopped in around 1:30 today, and placed my order with the friendly lady at the counter. I asked for the bento, which is not listed on the menu (thanks Yelp.) I ordered the Kahlua pork, chicken katsu, and teriyaki chicken with macaroni. I also ordered a spam musubi on the side. The food took about 5 minutes. And it was cooked fresh. The musubi came out hot and wrapped to keep it moist. It was the winner of the meal. The rest I could do without. The teriyaki was akin to what you would at the mall. And the Kahlua pork was sitting in a boat of grease. I wanted to drive back to get more musubi, because the rest of the items were not to my liking. However, the spam musubi, was the best I ever had. The next time I go back, I'll order a few of them as my meal. read more

I was really looking forward to meeting my girlfriends at DVG for lunch. There were ups and downs to my experience. Up: Service was great. Even though you order from the counter, they bring the food and silverware out to you with a smile and check up on you. And they're quick! Up: The veggie spring rolls. The order contains four spring rolls and it's $3.99. Despite the price tag, I would say the roll + sweet and sour sauce is worth it. Up: They have Hawaiian juices and cookies for sale from the Kauai Cookie Co. - my friend was overjoyed to see the cookies, and I was very happy with my strawberry-guava juice. Down: The only one, and a significant one. My teriyaki chicken was terrible. The mac salad was decent, but, and I hate to say this, Ono's is better. The chicken was drizzled with a tiny amount of sauce (but the sauce was tasty). The biggest problem was that the dark-meat chicken (I'm not a snob, I like dark meat), tasted like ham. It was like they sauteed the chicken with ham, or spam, and then picked out the pork and served the chicken. I've never been so repulsed - except the time I bit into a Milky Way thinking it was a Snickers. I might go back to try their Kalbi short ribs, but the teriyaki ham experience will ensure that my next visit will be a long ways off. read more

this is a great family run restaurant that serves Hawaiian plate lunch.. When you walk through the door you can feel the love that they put into everything they do. The Kahlua Pork and Loco Moco are personal addictions of mine. Portion size is large. The various sauces are always fresh. Try one of the Hawaiian Sun fruit drinks. And they now also feature Boba & Fruit Smoothies. Da' Valley Grill brings a little Hawaiian 'Aina to the Valley of the Sun I know this all sounds like a commercial.. But, I really do love this place. it's worth a try trust me read more

We happen to be in the area and checked this place out. The food was good, not terrific, but good. A little pricey for the portion size, but we would still eat here if in the area again. Stop by and give it a try for yourself. Definitely has a family owned feel as the cashier was super friendly. read more

To start with not a very huge look and feel of the restaurant but food is just awesome in one word. I tried the chicken with special sauce and pineapple li hing mui and it was wonderful. The price was very less as compared to the quantity. The lady in the front was very courteous and polite. read more

Small family owned feeling when walking in. Super friendly service that has some information on the ethnic food. Get your Asian fix that's more authentic than regular Chinese food. The theme is Hawaiian Asian cuisines read more

This place has always been good in the past. It seems like it is under new management. The only way to describe it now is absolute chaos. They have no system for taking and getting orders out. What should have been a 10 min wait is now 40 min+. While i was waiting for my food several people walked out or asked for their money back because of the wait. Id be willing to give them another chance in a few months when hopefully they get things figured out. read more

Great little gem that I didn't know about. Place is clean and the very nice couple that operate it are very humble and hard working. I will definitely return. read more

The best chicken katsu I've had in Arizona! Just the right thickness to get the right mix of chicken and the delicious breading. The rice was perfectly cooked and the macaroni salad was amazing! If you know Seattle teriyaki shops, these katsu meets or beats most of the shops up there! read more

Great place for lunch, always enjoyed my katsu curry or teriyaki chicken! Friendly service and authentic Hawaiian food.

The best Hawaiian restaurant in the north phx area! I always order their chicken katsu and spam musubi (togo for later). My aunt tries something different everytime we go and she hasnt been dissappointed with any dish. This place is small, its clean, family owed and they are all very nice! read more

Da Valley Grill - Spam Musubi all wrapped and ready to eat! Yummy!! - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Have driven past this restaurant a 100 times and finally decided to support local during these times of social distancing. They were super friendly, super clean, and the food was fantastic!! Felt like a great lunch plate in Hawaii!! Kailua Pork was off the hook and the spam musubi was bomb! Please support these folks, I want them to be around for a long time! read more

They were out of the Kalua Pork, which is awesome so the owner suggested the Kalbi Short Ribs. OMG they are so tender and tasty! It is small slices of meat served with two scoops of rice and a side of macaroni or potato salad. The serving is plentiful and I'm having a hard time finishing but my taste buds won't let me stop. Highly recommend. Aloha read more

Been here a few times now the Kalbi short ribs are awesome, it's a great place for lunch or when your looking for something other than a burger and fries read more

Da Valley Grill - Menu - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Just ate there. Fantastic food and great price. They weren't busy at all for dinner and I talked to one of the owners. She said they are usually really busy for lunch but dinners are starting to pick up. The place is off the side of Deer Valley Road and it is in kind of a strip mall. You probably wouldn't even notice it as you pass buy except for the neon lettering ads on the side facing the road. The place was really clean and simply furnished. The owners are really hospitable and can really help you pick out what you want. If you are looking for that Hawaiian Islands/ Asian fusion food this a real find. My wife and I bought several entrees that included the lemongrass chicken, the Kalua Pork and Teriyaki Chicken. We also bough spring rolls and Spam Musibi. The lemongrass was delicious, it had a little spice and you could really taste the lemongrass. The Kalua pork was definitely for meat eaters, smoky and soft a better version of pulled pork. The teriyaki was also delicious. All the entrees came with heaps of white rice and choice of sides. We chose Cole slaw and Macaroni salad. All of them were super good and fresh. The spring rolls were smaller, 4 per order, but really very nice. The Spam Musubi was great and was a freshly fried piece of spam on rice wrapped with seaweed. All of it made us feel like we were back in Maui and you can't beat the prices. Highly recommend this place if you need a real Pacific Island fix on a short budget but want real flavor. read more

Brought a big party from work because I had been once before and had decent katsu. Ended up being really embarrassing for me. Among the six or seven dishes, we had food that was soggy, burnt, cold, room temperature, dry, old, sour, unseasoned...just the most dreadful assortment of food I had ever seen. Absolutely shockingly bad. The pork needed a health inspection. It might have been in the slow cooker for several days. I'm not joking. We threw all da kine in da rubbish bin. Not ono. read more

Was much better and tastier! Guess you gotta experiment and try different plates. The loco moco was spot on, especially with the brown gravy which was generously smothered on!!!! The kalua pork plate was tasty, with the smoke flavor really coming through. All in all a much better dining experience!! read more

Best orange chicken in town. I compare everywhere else I eat orange chicken to Da Valley Grill's orange chicken. They have amazing veggie sushi rolls and katsu chicken as well. The staff is so friendly and I recommend this spot to anyone that likes Chinese/Hawaiian food read more

We stopped by to grab a bite to eat and because of the high ratings. We were not impressed with the food. I ordered orange chicken and my wife had katsu chicken. When our food arrived, the rice was old and dry and seemed like they microwaved it. The orange chicken was breaded wrong like sweet and sour pork breading, the only warm on my plate was the orange sauce which was microwaved. The katsu chicken was drenched in old oil, and it warm. The macaroni salad was warm.... Thanks, hopefully your experience will better if you decide to eat here. read more

So Yummy!!! We are in town for a soccer tournament and looked on Yelp, so have this place a try and we were not disappointed. The Katsu is so light and my daughters loco moco was amazing!!! read more

Orders for the first time yesterday and it was sooo good we had it delivered today for lunch. The pad Thai is amazing and so is the miso ramen. I was skeptical on ordering sushi but went for it anyway.. risky I know. The Vegas roll was delicious and I can't wait to try something else. We now have a new favorite Asian restaurant. Great job guys!! read more

Super bomb! I chose the chicken katsu and had a spam musubi. The katsu was breaded and tried to perfection and the sauce was super yum! The musubi was more a work of art than the classic snack I was expecting but it was still tasty! Oh and the mac salad was great! Everything was fresh and made to order by a nice lady who also was taking orders. We saw a lot of people swing through fast at lunch for pickup orders. Smooth operating! I cannot wait to come back for a loco moco! read more

My first time here and I loved it. Was recommended to this place by my good friend. Walked up and Lisa was just amazing from the start. Explained to us a few of there entrees and she recommended a couple. I ordered the short ribs which Lisa recommended and It was just amazing. I'll start coming here and bringing my family too. read more

Hidden Gem: Simple clean (out dated) dining area. Service: Very Nice employees and good service. Food: Cooked just right, flavorful and more than I could eat. Great hidden gem to share with friends and clients! read more

A coworker recently recommended this place for lunch. It's just a few blocks away. I ordered the fried rice with chicken and pineapple. While I was waiting for my lunch I looked in the cooler and noticed a variety of interesting looking sodas. Anyway the rice was good and I will probably return for lunch again. read more

The food was really good. We had the pineapple chicken the chicken was juicy and crispy. We also had the loco moco. The gravy was good, with scrambled eggs, and the hamburger was tender. Great combination. Highly recommend it. read more

Easy place to find right off the main road, very clean and quiet inside. I tried the kalua pork for my first visit and it was very flavorful along with the mac salad. The portion is enough for two people and comes on a bed of rice. The prices are very fair and I look forward to trying something else when I return. Definitely recommend as it can be tough to find authentic Hawaiian food in the area. read more

We love Da Valley Grill and eat there frequently. The Kailua pork is amazing! I had the barbecue chicken last night, and it was excellent!

They have Hawaiian Sun! Various flavors and cold! They have cookies! The Ninja bowl is teriyaki chicken, but thigh meat. I prefer white meat! I asked for veggies instead of rice, most places you get the mixed vegies, I got shredded cabbage and a few pieces of broccoli. I didn't eat it all! read more
