We have been to this location several times - service is always friendly & they consistently serve delicious food that hits our craving. The portion is enough to take home. Save your stomach for their cream or ube filled Malasadas. read more

I've been here twice so far. The menu is simple, sticking to the classics and focusing on fresh, well-made Hawaiian dishes. No frills, just good food. The staff has always been super friendly, and the place itself feels welcoming. On one visit, there was a bit of an unusual moment with a guest's dachshund ate inside on the table and the staff came up to pet the dog who licked their hands and what not, it caught me off guard more than anything. It didn't seem like a service animal since they're trained to stay under the table, so it's probably worth keeping in mind that non-service animals are allowed at this restaurant. Overall, it's been consistently solid food wise. read more

Hapa Food - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

The one and only place to get Hawaiian food in the valley So glad they opened this location in PV as the original location is all the way out in Mesa. The PV location is pretty spacious inside. They make everything to order so it can take a while for food to come out I LOVE the kalbi, mac salad & malasadas. Garlic shrimp is a nice treat every once and a while but they go heavy on the butter so I don't feel the greatest after indulging in garlic shrimp read more

Hapa Food - Combo plates w/ kalbi, garlic shrimp & chicken. Plus 6 malasadas - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Love this place. Thank k goodness they finally opened one closer to my house than Mesa. We had the garlic chicken and the combo Kalbi and garlic shrimp. Kalbi was beautifully charred with a sweet soy marinade along with the shrimp that was cooked perfectly in a garlic butter. Garlic chicken tasted more like a mochiko chicken and was slightly tougher pieces of chicken thighs. Overall nice place for lunch. Please get an ice machine! There wasn't a cube of ice anywhere to be found for the beverages. read more

We got takeout after hearing this could be the only authentic Hawaiian food in the Valley. We were so happy we stopped. My husband loved his poke bowl and my mixed bowl was great. Typically not a short rib person but wow they were great, and the garlic chicken was awesome. Going to try the pork next time. It was busy inside at 6:15pm when we picked up. Service was nice and efficient, our order was ready. We'll be back! read more

My grams and I drove 30 minutes to try this place and we were not disappointed! The prices are very reasonable, considering the portion size that you get, and we were blown away with the taste. It took about 15 minutes to get our order, but when it comes out, it's piping hot so you know that it's fresh and ready to eat. We shared a combo with shrimp and ribs, and then got an additional side of Mac salad and rice. We also got a six pack of the malasadas and I'm literally dreaming about them. The ube filling was by far the best, and quite honestly better than some I've had in Hawaii before. We will definitely return. Plenty of seating inside too! read more

I ordered a Kalbi and Garlic Chicken mix plate and a half dozen of Ube Yam and Vanilla Custard Malasadas. No complaints about the mix plate. Meats weren't dry and were flavorful. Rice was properly clumpy, not a mushy mess iykyk. Malasadas tasted like what I've had on Oahu. I wish the cream was sweeter and little thicker but still tasty. I also tried one of my friend's garlic shrimp and wow it was a big, juicy shrimp! No issues with service. There isn't much of an ambience but as long as the food is good! read more

Big, big fan of Hapa Food Company in East Mesa. This is my first visit to their new Scottsdale and the vibes are there for sure! The garlic shrimp are huge and packed with flavor - I wish it were fried so I can eat the skin too but that's a personal preference. Biggest issue this visit was the garlic chicken tasted a bit stale and lacked the satisfying crunch I remember and were a bit overdone and dry. I've had good experiences before so I would still highly recommend giving them a try! Pro-tip: try the hurricane chicken on the not so secret menu. FYI, they have a $1 credit card fee read more

Picked up takeout from Hapa Food while celebrating New Year's with the family--what a great discovery! I got the kalbi short ribs plate with mac salad, kimchi, and white rice. The whole thing blew away my expectations. The kimchi paired amazingly with the tender short ribs, bringing that perfect tangy zest and spicy kick. This beats L&L (in California) and Ono hands down. The short ribs were juicy and flavorful without being greasy at all--great texture and seasoning. Easily the best I've had! Ordered through DoorDash, and it still arrived tasting fresh and incredible. Clearly, the team at Hapa Food takes pride in their dishes, even for takeout. Highly recommend--can't wait to go back! read more

Hapa offers your basic Hawaiian food. We had the mixed plate with garlic chicken and kalua pork. The chicken was fried and it had perfect amount of seasoning with hint of garlic flavor. The pork, on the other hand was bit salty. We also had poke plate. The sides, macaroni salad and kimchi were good. It also came with lot of rice. Their dessert, malasada was very fresh and delicious. We tried the plain and ube custard. Both were equally delicious. Service is fast and excellent. It's order at the counter and take a number deal. Recommend to try at least once! read more

I went with the Kalbi and kalua pork combo plate. The kalbi was quite good and flavorful. The pork was just ok in taste and compact in the way it was served...led to a interesting texture. The custard malasada was delicious and would be ordered again, it was a little smaller than I thought it would be though. Service took about 15 minutes to get my take-out order. Looked clean enough inside, not too much going on. read more

I love Hawaiian BBQ and I've gone to many spots in the valley, and my husband makes spareribs at home on the regular - but Hapa Food is by far the best in the valley for Hawaiian BBQ! The flavor of the sauce on the chicken and spareribs was so juicy and savory, and the meat was tender! The macaroni salad had great flavor and the portion was large! We ordered to go since we made a pit stop during the workday, and it travelled well! Additionally the location is clean, the service is great! We ordered some dessert to go and they through in an extra! What a nice surprise! Not expected, but appreciated! Big fan of this new spot and can't wait to go again! read more

Hapa Food - Pork and garlic shrimp plate, poke nachos - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Kalbi ribs! Garlic shrimp! Are we back on the islands? The ribs were delicious and a good portion size. The (4) garlic shrimp were big! And covered in garlic butter. Came with rice, mac salad and kimchi. And a lemon wedge. The mac salad was good, though not quite as flavorful as others I've had. The rice was cooked nicely and the kimchi added a nice kick of acidity. We did also order 6 filled malasadas (3 each custard and ube) which were good but maybe a little overfilled. Next time I think we'll get to regular (unfilled). We were greeted as soon as we walked in and she said she'd be right with us. As we stood at the counter looking at the menu, one of the cooks also said someone would be right with us. This was appreciated because it means they pay attention to their customers. And it didn't take long before someone came to take our order. The entire time we were there, everyone was working. There wasn't anyone just standing around. The interior is a bit bare, but clean. And I don't need a fancy interior with food this good. We did get ours to go, but there were tables and some other customers dining in. If you are looking for authentic Hawaiian food, I would definitely recommend Hapa. We will definitely be back! read more

Hapa Food - Kalbi ribs and garlic shrimp plate. - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Hapa Foods Ordered the following: Kalbi and Garlic Chicken Mix Plate Kalbi and Garlic Shrimp Mix Plate Kalua Pig single plate Serve Poke but didn't get it Malasadas Regular, Custard and Ube filled So to begin with, the Kalbi was just a bit over cooked, parts charred, tasty but too much where was getting dry. I am a huge fan of garlic, so the piled amount of garlic on the shrimp was good for me, probably my favorite entree is Garlic Shrimp. Garlic Chicken was almost lacking enough garlic and crispness, sounded better than it tasted. The Kalua Pork is excellent, flavor, aroma and tenderness is very good. I am just not a kalua pork favorite. Malasadas were very good, tried the regular, Custard and ube. Custard was my favorite, then regular. We have had the favorite Oahu. Malasadas from the island a d these are just as good. Biggest complaint was the macaroni salad, I absolutely love macaroni salad and this misses the mark, dont know how to describe but a little to creamy, maybe the mayo was not to my liking, just didn't do it for me. Small restaurant and happy workers, just for the locals. Get the garlic shrimp, Custard Malasadas, don't over cook the kalbi then get that. read more

Wow! I'm surprisingly pleased. I was so hungry after a rigorous morning workout and just wanted protein. My boyfriend found this on yelp and suggested we try it. Sooooooo goood and hit the spot. First, we were greeted by this young lady who was very polite, friendly and full of helpful suggestions. Definitely great person to put up front to handle customers. She had a personality that is easy to get along with. Great customer service. We both got the Kalbi ribs single plate. Very very generous portions! It comes with kimchi which was yummy! It also comes with plenty of rice and a scoop of macaroni salad. Rice was good, no complaints. Macaroni salad was good, however I'm not a macaroni salad person (it is very mayo forward) but I'm sure it hits the spot for macaroni salad lovers. The main show of course was the beef riblets. They were so tender, flavorful (great flavor!) and ample amounts of meat! I ate every piece of meat! So satisfying. We ended with ube malasadas. I've always wanted to try these. I know they are specialty treat well known in Hawaii and originated in Portugal. Combine a deep fried yeast based donut treat with one of my faves ube and rolled in sugar, and I'm down. It definitely was a guilty tasty dessert treat at the end for me. I would have it again Definitely recommend! Bring your appetite! It is a lot of food! I'm looking forward to trying more dishes there such as their poke (decently priced), their chicken and shrimp and of course more malasadas. Check them out! You won't regret it! read more

Popped into this place today for lunch after finding it on Yelp. Located in a small strip mall right off the 51. My goddaughter and I both enjoyed it here. I got the Kalbi & Garlic Shrimp plate and she got Kalbi & Kailua Pork. Each one came with Mac salad and plenty of rice, as well as some kimchi. Kalbi was perfect - there was no struggling (if you know what I mean) and the shrimp definitely sent me down memory lane of my Hawaiian trips. If I was not being mindful of my eating habits, I would have totally eaten all of the Mac salad but I needed to watch myself. It was pretty darn good though! Couldn't help but order some malasadas. We got half filled with ube and the other half with custard. I inhaled an ube one and told my goddaughter to take the rest home with her. Am I still daydreaming about them? Yes. Will I buy another box of 6 next time just so I can have 1? Absolutely. Made fresh to order - felt like I was biting into a donut filled with love. The ube filling was not too sweet too unlike some typical donut fillings. Just perfect! Looking forward to bringing my husband here because I know he'll enjoy it as much as I did. read more

Oh my goodness! This place is heavenly. The kalbi has the perfect slight sweet touch and perfect char, while still juicy and uber delicious. The pork is juicy and delicious. Honestly - I'm absolutely impressed. This place has the best Hawaiian BBQ in the whole valley. Absolute Banger! read more

Me and seven of my friends went here yesterday and the food was delicious. We all had something different and then had a filled malasada for dessert. I loved the garlic chicken although one of my friends said it was all breading and no chicken I did not experience that. Everyone else enjoyed their food. . I really appreciated how they accommodated our big party which originally started at 10 people but ended up at 8. They were ready for 10 of us! They worked hard to get our food out quickly. read more

Ordered the mix kalbi and kahlua pig. The kalbi is so incredibly delicious, and everything came out hot. The servers are very nice, and the food came out in 10ish minutes instead of the 15 I was told. Would come back and honestly do just a kalbi plate because it's just that good. Sadly no desserts in the display case but i would absolutely come back. read more

This place has been popping up on my Instagram, so I had to give it a try. The price is more on the expensive side and they charge for a card fee. My favorite was the Garlic Chicken, I do wish it was crispier in texture though. The Kalua Pork was salty and not my favorite. The store is great for a quick dine-in or takeout order. ig: @cravingswithcat read more

Hapa Food has only been open a couple of months, but they're already serving up some seriously tasty plates! I ordered the Kalbi & garlic chicken, and my boyfriend got the Kalbi & garlic shrimp. The Kalbi was the star! It was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The garlic chicken was also delicious, and my boyfriend liked his shrimp, though we both thought it would've been even better if the shells were off so all that garlic goodness could soak into the meat. Since they're new, they don't have fountain drinks yet (hopefully soon!), and the water cups were on the small side with water that was a little warm. Not a huge deal, just something to note. Overall though, the food more than makes up for those little things, and I can't wait to come back for more Kalbi. Definitely worth checking out if you're craving Hawaiian flavors! read more

First timers! I would've love to give a perfect 5 but the food could be a lot better since I know/love Hawaiian plate lunch! We ordered 2 plates: the garlic chicken and Kailua pig. First, why do they pile on so much rice? See pic! What happened to 1-2 scoops of rice (reg ice cream scooper) . It's such a waste! The Kalua pig lack flavor! Need a lot more Smokiness and Hawaiian salt! The Mac salad makes the plate lunch complete however it has way too much Mayo & kinda runny. Sorry to be critical but I want this location to thrive! Services and cleanliness were tops!!! I would return for malasadas and try the Kalbi shrimp mix plate! read more

It wasn't as good as the pictures look...sorry. The potato mac was too mushy and way too much mayo. The kalbi was to sweet and the garlic shrimp although super huge was to buttery. Sorry, it's like someone went to Hawaii and said, I can make that back in the states. I had high hopes from the pics but was disappointed. But that's me...maybe you will love it!!! Idk, honest opinion read more

Delicious hawaiin food! Kalbi flavor was on point with a perfect smoky sear. Garlic shrimp was buttery and garlicky, shrimp was also relatively fresh. Mac salad was delicious! Fast service as well, would come back! read more

I ate it all. 1st time @ this location. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu. My fave is the garlic shrimp & kalbi ribs. Big, plump, juicy shrimps sitting in garlic-ky butter sauce. Greatly marinated kalbi ribs sitting on a big bed of rice. Side of kim chee with enough heat & added crunchy texture. The macaroni salad had the right consistency of mayonnaise. The zest I honestly didn't care for. Most local people from HI, like myself, can do without the added flavor. Unless there is a hint of tuna or finely chopped onions, staying true to how the locals keep it simple with this, in my opinion is best. But still, like I said previously, I ate it all. I enjoy their mixed plates. Cashier who took my order over the phone to go & greeted me did so with aloha. Which I most definitely appreciate. I was in line waiting but I love that others see what a great place Hapa is. A hui hou (till we meet again!) Hapa. read more

I tried three different types of me - the garlic chicken, the Kalbi, and the pulled pork. The pulled pork was quite salty, and the garlic chicken was alright (most breadth without crunch - moist). Star of the sho was the Kalbi! I want to learn the secrets of the marinade because it soaked through the meat and didn't feel like a sauce coating. The macaroni salad was balanced without being too mayoey. I'll definitely be back for more Kalbi. read more

Best Kalbi ribs in the state. Also double scoop of macaroni pls n ty. Just order that and trust me you'll be coming back.
