The serious grindz…read more.. I was so happy to have Jackie driving us down to Wai Kai and knowing at the same time there was their usual even every Thursday night which is the Ono Grindz and Makeke at Wai Kai 4p-8p as it's filled with various small biz gathering on the lawn as the sun sets browsing around was just fun and when I finally decided on Hometown BBQ it's because I knew exactly what I wanted. Creating a menu is very difficult and with this market circumstances it can be difficult since there's not a lot of tables and many menus are handwritten with price so I don't have samples of size or plating as I was afraid if I would be able to carry it around without making a mess. Thankfully though here I wanted the Esquites which is basically corn, beans, beef, sour cream and bbq sauce. I asked if it came in a bowl but it was a container so very transportable but very hot as well and large omg which still made it a challenge to carry around. The service here is fast and friendly and as I took a few bites from it it was delicious a tad bit salty for my personal taste but really enjoyed all the layers of flavors it had and didn't expect it to be that enormous. Great to support our small local biz while getting something unique is fun and being in our hometown is the best. Thank you!

They're sauced but not doused in it to the point where it's difficult to even taste the smokiness. Hubs gets one or the other each time. I am VERY picky about my grits and I love theirs! I crave it often lol. The shrimp is blackened with a mild but tasty kick. The grits manage to be creamy and pleasantly textured at the same time. In some magical way, they each have their own bold flavor that compliments each other perfectly. And the serving is so generous that it makes at least 4 meals for me. Oh and their fried okra is a must! The cornmeal batter plays so well with the creamy vegetable. And it's perfectly fried maintaining the bite of the okra. We ordered DD so we can only attest to the food. But look at that perfect presentation for take out, no less! If you're craving southern bbq, this is your answer!

The catfish plate was very tasty and what you'd expect from a southern food place. However their ribs were tough and could have been cooked a bit longer so they'd come out more tender. Overall, I'd rate them as average, but give them a try and make the decision for yourself. Aloooooooha and happy eating.

Pros: generous portions, flavorful, decent variety, and you get more than you pay for! Cons: the steak was more done than I'd prefer but that's subjective and I'm sure it's for health code reasons, the location may be a bit difficult to find. I'll be making myself a regular customer and I won't think twice about it. Highly recommend EZ's banana pudding, ribs, and chicken! The BBQ Lunch Plate gives you a great variety.

We always have the agendas tofu because the give you a whole block of tofu cubed, battered and deep fried swimming in a light shoe based sauce, really delicious and served piping hot. The fries were served with garlic and were nice and crispy. Ahi poke nachos were excellent, I would order it again. Best of all, the prices are very reasonable. The tofu was just $11, up from the previous $10 but still a great deal.

I thought the pulled pork would be a lot better since it's smoked. I was wrong. I've enjoyed smoked meat before and it's good so my expectations may have been a bit high. Being a local I think the kalua pig from Helena's is so much better but this review is for TEX 808 BBQ & Brews. The pork ribs were a little on the dry side and it certainly wasn't fall off the bone tender and juicy. The spicy dipping sauce really helped the ribs out. I thought the corn on the cob was good but I really like corn. As for the service, it was top notch. They were friendly, helpful and fast. Didn't take long to get our food at all. Unlimited refills for soft drinks and tea. Lots of parking and line moves quickly. Lots of Texas memorabilia on the walls to give you that you're in Texas kind of vibe.

You can never go wrong with Kalbi and BBQ chicken. And the sides are sides. Overall five stars. The service is quick and getting that fresh BBQ Kalbi is worth the wait. And the wait isn't too long no matter how many people order in front of you. Prices seem to keep going up but it's inline with all the other restaurants. Now excuse me, time to grind.

In the area and decided to try Gina's out for the first time. Similar to many Korean bbq…read morerestaurants, they have many options from bbq chicken, meatjun, and katsu to name a few popular dishes. They also do cater with multiple pan sizes. It was about 4 pm and the afterwork/before dinner rush was in full effect! Orders after orders. We decided to go with their fried chicken plate; Gina's special and a spicy bbq chicken. Haven't had a spicy bbq chicken so i was excited to give it a try. As we waited, we watched many others behind us get their choice of sides and orders out and was wondering if they missed our order. Unfortunately, our order was not printed. The tall gentlemen helping out in the back immediately apologized and put our order first in line and within a few minutes, we got our order. He then apologized again and loaded our plates. The mini looked like a large and the regular plate looked XL. They have a lot of side dishes to choose from. Our favorites are the choy sum, bean spouts and cuttlefish. Now for the food, it was AMAZING. The spicy bbq chicken is a must try! Not to spicy but has enough of a kick. You can't even go wrong with their regular bbq chicken. The Gina's special is completely loaded with chicken, beef and kalbi. I also enjoyed their fried chicken and may have to get that as a side as we had way too much rice and vegetables that we had to save some for later. Overall, the food is great! Customer service is excellence and even with the little mishap, I know the food and service makes up for it.

The chicken was crisp, juicy, and the gochujang sauce was DELICIOUS! My husband got the double down and said that it was incredible. The pastrami to brisket ratio was perfect and they added just the right amount of bbq sauce to enhance the meat flavors but not over power. My daughter also loved her grilled cheese. It was definitely more cheese than bread and she even tried tomato soup for the first time- also loved it. We also took a gamble and tried the toast of the month. I will admit I'm not a big "fake strawberry" flavor girl so I was worried I wouldn't like it but it was delicious. It's also the perfect size for sharing! The cook here really knows how to combine flavors and make perfect ratios for sure. We ate in- place was spotless, smelled nice, and was very fun and "Instagram" like if you're into that sort of stuff. We genuinely can't wait to go back and try more.
