Mo C.

It was o.k. Great seating space. Ordering was tough, I think they should have some menus available at the door so you can review items before getting up to the counter. I ordered Mochiko chicken and Teri beef. Mochiko chicken would have been BOMB if it was cooked at a lower heat, both had great flavor. If you miss home, the food will work.

On a rainy afternoon, we came to seek some comfort food before we joined a jumping birthday party near by. Since our objective was to grab a quick bite, Hawaiian Style grill served this purpose wonderfully. The overall restaurant atomphere was very chill. There's no music playing in the background while everyone patiently waited for their number to be called. The staff at the register was not conversational but friendly enough to make a smooth transition. I read some previous reviews mentioning bad service, however, my experience was on par with what we experienced in Hawaii. We ordered the mochiko chicken and short rib combo. Overall we liked it as the meats were flavorful and the rice was good. We were surprised to find there was a layer of rice underneath the meat, but we were ok with that since we were not in the mood for lot of meat anyways. We also ordered a Hawaiian sun (juice drink) and enjoyed it. There were a lot of variety and I really enjoying picking/trying new favors. Overall, we liked this eatery and would return again.

Mix plate, kalua pig and teriyaki beef

I was hesitant to try this place out but decided to give them a try. Pros: Big open seating dinning area. Lots of tables and space. I liked that it doesn't feel cramped. The decor was questionable. Food flavor is 9/10. Huli huli chickens cooked perfect. Rice was cooked perfect as well. Food amount 10/10. They give you a very decent amount of food for the price. I could not finish it all. I will probably make 3 meals out of it. Prices are fair. Lots of free parking. Areas of opportunity I waited 25 minutes for my 2 plates. Not to mention I had to wait 5 minutes just to order and no one was ahead of me. There was about 7 people behind me. One worker was bagging orders and the other other one was doing something on the side. No acknowledgements or sense of urgency. Staff that was working was not very approachable. No smiles, no thank yous or have a nice day. For a Hawaiian place I did not feel the aloha. Lots of people got their food ahead of me. If I ever came back, I would DEFINITELY order ahead of time. Overall the food is very good. But how you treat customers is extremely important.

Partially eaten top layer of katsu gone, revealing the soggy bottom half.

I ordered pickup from these guys on the way home and I had the lighter katsu and was disappointed because: 1. The chicken katsu is soggy and not crispy. Why? a) Because they put the teriyaki veggies below the chicken katsu. This made the bottom of the katsu soggy. b) there is no proper ventilation on the top of the plate for the steam to escape. 2. The veggies are cooked in a teriyaki sauce. Why? I would've been content with plain steamed veggies. The sauce was unnecessary and to me adding teriyaki sauce didn't make it a truly a light katsu. Mac salad is soo boring. It is literally a crescent shaped tubular noodle tossed in mayo. Nothing else. Some salt & pepper or tanginess woulda been great but this has no flavor. Add it yourself. Musubi? Uh i wish you guys tossed the rice in rice wine vinegar when it was freshly made and hot to add more flavor to it. Then u can roll it. How about placing the spam in the middle of the rice then wrap it with nori instead of at the top? Try it. Or how about adding a fried egg? I am use to spam musubi with fried egg and alot of flavor. This was not it. It's not bad but not great either it just seems to be there, made. I had their katsu about a month ago and it was perfectly seasoned and but almost soggy. Mac was always boring. Today, I was disappointed with the katsu. But its nothing an airfryer and my own seasonings at home can't fix including the mac salad where I can add things to it. I hope they can stay consistent serving good quality food. They do give u healthy portions but I did order the Ali'i size which is bigger than the regular. For all these reasons, fhe earn a 2.5-3 stars from me.

Hawaiian Style Grill is truly an excellent place to eat Hawaiian food in generous portions at a great price. Most meals can be ordered regular size or ali'i (larger/king) size. They also offer lunch specials. We live over an hour away and still regularly make the trip to eat here because it's so good. We've had everything from chicken katsu to kalua pig and spam musubi. We've enjoyed it all! The dining area is pretty expansive, though some areas are sometimes blocked off. We've never had an issue with finding an open table, though. I've noticed they do quite a few takeout orders, so this prompted me to visit their website to see if they have an online ordering platform. They do! Hawaiian Style Grill also caters. After eating here many a time, I can say in good faith that the food is delicious, and that I've always left happy. I can't wait for my next lunch here!

Chicken Katsu
Stephanie V.

This place hits the spot, we can't seem to find a good Hawaiian place near us but when we found them when we visit Vancouver we were stoked! We come regularly whenever in the area. We always get the chicken Katsu plate (regular) it's a huge serving size. We love the way everything is good and the macaroni does not disappoint. The place is pretty big lots of seating and the ambiance is usually pretty relaxed. Service is good but the food takes a little while (just like at most Hawaiian places) but worth the wait or call ahead.

Mixed plate Kalbi chicken and Mochiko chicken
Cheri S.

Hawaiian Style Grill is my go to for Hawaiian food! The restaurant has an island vibe decorated with Hawaiian decorations and music playing. The service is always pretty good. The food is always the same, meaning it's not going to be good one time and be terrible the next time you go. I have been coming to this place for years and have never had a disappointing experience. I usually get kalbi chicken 9.5 out of 10 and mochiko chicken 9.5 out of 10. Their Mac salad is good too 9 out of 10. I suggest you try this spot you won't regret it! Happy Eats!

Mix plate w/ Huli Huli and mochiko chicken. Sub mac for rice (there was still plenty of rice underneath the protein!)
Kathy V.

Ordered takeout and food was still good even though it wasn't hot when i finally got the chance to eat dinner. The huli huli and mochiko chicken are so yummy, but I do find myself getting tired of the taste after a few pieces of protein. I love the mac salad with a little bit of their sauce poured on top. I got a regular plate but was still able to share this between two people (generous amount of food)! I'd definitely come back if I was in the area but would not go out of my way for it.

Huli Huli chicken and signature pot stickers.

The food is always unbelievably good, the staff is incredibly kind and patient and very sweet. I think a lot of customers lack patience these days. Hawaiian Style Grill is not McDonald's or Burger King. It's fresh and hot food made to your order, and it's a very popular place. If you can't handle waiting for good restaurant food, then don't waste these good folks time and energy by bringing your lack of patience in here. The music is nice, the place is comfortably warm. It's good food, good feelings there.

Extremely slow, it took 40 minutes to get the food during lunch hours. There are people ordered before me yet not having their lunch when I got mine. The food quality is not the worst Hawaiian food in Portland Vancouver area, but it's nowhere close to average either.

They had one special menu and the manapua man noodles and gaugee caught my eye. That's like the perfect combo. But we skipped out on gaugee and got the manapua man noodles. Wish the options for the additions was one fried chicken but instead it was either pork belly or sweet sour chicken. Which isn't usually the kind of combo I would get. Especially if you label it manapua man noodles. The noodles tasted more like fried noodle / fried saimin style since it was cooked on a wok. I do miss the simplicity of a manapua noodle where you dress it with shoyu and sirracha. But these noodles weren't bad. They were super flavorful. Portion was huge! My husband said he could've gone without the pork belly. The pork belly was meh. The noodles tho, ono! I also went with the japolo chicken and kalbi combo, which is my go to. Kalbi is saucy and so flavorful! The chicken is nice and crispy. My only thing is that my plate was swimming in sauce. And when it touches the rice, it's a no for me. Wish had some buffer like cabbage to catch the sauce. Other than that, food is always ono here. Service is also friendly and the place is nice and clean with lots of seating!

My partner and I got the grilled bbq chicken and the bbq short ribs + marinated beef. Unfortunately, the deep fried chicken was sold out for the day (we came in about 45 minutes until closing so perhaps our fault). I think because of the time we came in- we got kitchen scraps. The short ribs were 90% fat and 10% actual meat. The macaroni salad was incredibly plain, it needed more seasoning - pepper something because it straight up looked it was pasta with slabbed mayo. I will however give a shot out to their poke because I don't eat seafood nor like it and I did give this a try for the fun of it and it was delicious. Again I think because we came in 40-45 minutes before closing closing the service was not great either. I saw the self service bottles of sauce and when I came back I asked the lady for one and she said she had run out when it was pretty clear she was just cleaning up. Fair- you want to get out of there on time. So I asked the lady for hot sauce and she said it was extra and charged me $1.00 per 2.5oz container which is just diabolical in my opinion- I still paid none the less so it's my dusky for contribution to the fiasco. Overall it was mid, I'm used to much more flavorful food in Los Angeles. Ill give it another go whenever I'm in the area at a different time. Perhaps it was a one off day for them.

But today, I had the time to swing by and fortunately he was open, but SOLD OUT. Fortunately, he had a few things left over. So I said yes to a mix plate. Nolan's Hawaii accent is still thick it made me feel like I was back home on the west side for a second (!!!!thank you!!!!) I met some people outside the food stand, a business man from Hawaii and some California people I mistaken were from Hawaii as well, lol. It was an awesome interaction, from the moment I got there I got greeted by strangers waiting for food, to going up to the window and asking "so what? No more nuttin left?" Nolan's response was "Nah I only get mochicko chicken and kalua, you likem?" Haha that was a definite yes! Won't miss out on home food esp if word of mouth was already out there. So I waited a few minutes for my food, and the box was heavy. Haha it felt like when you would eat at your aunty and uncles house and they pack you the party left overs. I opened my plate lunch and I was greeted by a huge portion of chicken, pork rice and Mac salad. And let me tell you, the Mac salad didn't have so much frills like what you would see in a Portland Hawaii food joint. It was sauced, and seasoned. PERFECT! No need for all the extra add ons. As I started eating, let me say that kalua pork was no joke so moist and easy to eat not even close to dried out. The chicken tasted nice and crispy with just enough marinate and fluff. I haven't found this anywhere in Oregon..until here. Yeah sure there's a poke and katsu bar in the shopping center next door... but I take the random food cart in the parking lot any day over something franchised

The spam fries were $9 for half a can of spam cut up and put in the oven with a side of mayo? The loco moco was promising but tasted like something you'd get at Kenjis - not a Hawaiian spot. I feel like with a lot of tweaks in flavor - this could be a great spot.
