I decided to revisit Hawaiian Sun BBQ because The Homie and his friends had a satisfying meal here after a long road trip and hike. I had laulau elsewhere recently, so I was interested in trying their version for comparison. Last laulau ordered here was in 2018! We took 99N all the way to Everett Mall Way to avoid the I-5 commute traffic (4/23/26). We were immediately seated and provided menus & ice water. Pretty much the same interior, no overhead music, and straightforward table service. There were three others dining onsite, but also later overheard phone orders taken followed with brisk takeout pickups. They also have the capacity for catering with product, prices, and serving pan sizes posted on the wall. The Homie ordered the loco moco with overeasy eggs, plus their standard cheeseburger. He was pretty happy with the outcome. Consistent to his previous experience, but also took note of the quality and reasonable cost for the cheeseburger. I opted for the laulau plate which came with the requisite two scoops steamed rice and one scoop mac (Hawaiian style macaroni salad) with a sizeable laulau. I unwrapped the outer ti leaves and cut into the taro leaves (steamed like spinach) to reveal succulent pork and tender butterfish inside. This was great with a little added shoyu. Spot on delicious! The ice water also hit the spot. Perfectly chilled without any aftertaste from a pitcher. None of that tepid water in a stoppered top glass bottle or carafe. Refreshing! Overall satisfying meal at a reasonable price. read more

This has been a favorite place for many years. The location is in an older strip mall and not glamorous. But the food here is always good and the service has always been great. The menu is pretty diverse with many selections available. They also have a catering menu available for parties or get together. The pricing is very reasonable for both the retail and catering. One of the favorites is to order Spam Musubi to go and pick up for local sporting events. This is definitely a place to find and try. It might become one of your new places to frequent. read more

Love their musubis! I haven't tried a lot of their menu but I go there for a snack and it always hits!

Very tasty. It's one of my favorite places. Their Lau Lau is the best though. I highly recommend. read more

Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q - Kalua pig with cabbage and Bbq chicken. Comes with Mac salad - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

Seriously my favorite Hawaiian place around! Always so good and portions are always fair for what you pay. Their mochiko chicken and meat jun are my go-tos! (I like to do a large meat jun and then side of mochiko chicken). Also love that they're a small family run business and I hope they'll be around forever! read more

We came in on a Thursday late afternoon and no one was eating but us--so surprised because food was so tasty and everything came out so hot and fresh. Ladies working were so sweet and the island decor was adorable. Definitely will come back when we're in the area again!! Edit: SAIMIN WAS DELICIOUS!!! read more

Every foodie should have a Hawaiian spot in their list of places to eat and Hawaiian Sun BBQ is the spot for me. Tucked into a small strip mall, is this gem of a place. Been coming here for years and this place have never disappointed. Mind you it is sort of a hole-in-the-wall kind of joint and not one of the overhyped fancy foo foo places. One to the best part, the food! 1) Mochiko chicken - this is a staple and I always get this. Crispy, juice, sweet and a little spicy. What more can you ask. 2) Ox tail noodle soup - so good and the ox tails is fork tender. 3) locomoco/mochiko chicken combo - if you cannot decide between a couple options get a combo and get a bit of both! Who does not like a good ol locomoco? Flavored beef , overeasy egg , rice , gravy 4) Kailua Pork - get it with the cabbage. So good, savory and tender. Definitely a classic. Staff is great and they have a good selection of Hawaiian Sun to wash down the food with. If you are in the Everett area, come on by and get a taste of the Aloha. read more

The best Hawaiian spot in Washington still outdoing the old and new competition. My family and I hadn't been here in over 5 years but decided to order takeout recently. Where else can you get dinner for $11?! 3 bbq plates, 2 spam Musubi and one deluxe double cheeseburger ran our family around $40. That's insane value and quality in today's economy. We will continue to support and sing the praises of this establishment who have very minimally increased their prices to feed hungry families for years. Much mahalo! read more

Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q - Bbq plate lunch $11 insane value great flavor - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

Yelpers lead us to this cute mom & pop Hawaiian spot today, and it did not disappoint! We ordered the BBQ combo, katsu chicken, and Huli Huli chicken. Food came out quickly and tasted great, identical to the authentic Hawaiian food I've gotten at places the locals eat at in the islands. Portions were generous, katsu was perfectly fried and not greasy, and house teriyaki sauce was excellent. I wish they had fountain sodas instead of cans. Prices were great, and you can get a side of most anything they offer - Katsu was less than $4! It seemed to be a two-man show with one cook and one server. It did get busy as we ate, so getting our bill was a bit challenging in the end. The restaurant was clean, parking was easy, and service was great. Looking forward to returning again soon! read more

Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q - Order a spam musubi, katsu musubi and egg rolls all very scrumptious 100/10 Will definitely be back to try some entrees. - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

I've eaten here many times since my original 2010 review. In fact we just ate there last weekend and with my last review of Kona Kitchen's Loco Moco, I can honestly say I prefer Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q.'s Loco Moco. for the following reasons: 1. The price is right. 2. Made perfect. The protein to carb ratio is spot on. In other words, two patties, two eggs, smothered in gravy and the perfect amount of rice. 3. Side of Hawaiian Mac...part of the meal...not extra $. 4. Just tasted damn good! You get a chance to visit I would also recommend their Mochiko Chicken, their Short Ribs and the Meat Jun. I also love their musubi which comes in spam or chicken and wrapped in cellophane, just like the ones sold in any mini-mart on the islands. But honestly, everything I've ever had there has been good and the reason I keep coming back is food like that is what I would consider "comfort" food, and they do it right. The place ain't fancy, in fact it's one of those "Hole in the Wall" kinda places in a strip mall, but some of the best "local" food I've eaten in Hawaii and here in Washington are "Hole in the Wall" kinda places. So while I didn't hate Kona Kitchen , given the choice, I would choose Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q. It's good food made right and not hard on the wallet either. read more

Have been missing authentic Hawaiian dishes that you can get on the island. Checked this place out this afternoon, and it was delicious! Sweet lady runs it, and waits on tables as well. Pretty lowkey atmosphere, a little dated but who cares when the food tastes good! Lol. Our food came out rather quickly, which was awesome because it did get a little busy. Spam musabi 10/10, egg rolls 10/10. Bbq beef was great, and not too fatty. Overall great experience and food. We will definitely be back! read more

I ordered one mini meat jun plate, it was mostly egg and a small piece of meat. Wasted plate more like egg jun rather than meat jun. you can see in the picture how small the meat is lol read more

We shared a plate of the #15 plate with the three meats, rice and macaroni salad. We also got 4 musubi. All the food was quickly prepared and tasted great. For the most part the meats all had the same flavor of sweet sauce, but was perfect for what we wanted. Great and quick service. read more

Hawaiian Sun B.B.Q - #15 combo plate with 2 musubis for dine in and 2 to go! - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

To qualify the review- I am from Hawaii. So I can easily compare Hawaiian Sun to the many places I've been to in Hawaii and in the Pacific Northwest. In a word- excellent. Their macaroni salad is just like and as good as the good Mac salads in Hawaii. I had the BBQ combo and the Kalbi was cooked nicely as was the Teri beef and the bbq chicken. My wife had the Banana lumpia and it also very, very good. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely come again. read more

Unfortunately nothing very Hawaiian here. No spam no Portuguese sausage. Food just ok

There was an interesting smell in restaurant. I couldn't place it but it wasn't good. We got musubi, a mini loco moco, and chicken katsu. The musubi was good. The loco moco and katsu were...ok. The loco moco gravy was a strange tan color and not the traditional brown gravy. The chicken katsu was thin, dry, and an unappealing light colored panko, though the sauce has a tiny bit of spice to it which was pleasant. The two sides of mac salad were in containers with lids that didn't actually fit, so they were upside down and the contents completely emptied into the bag. The person who helped us was friendly enough. The food came out quickly. If you're hoping for food that is close to authentic Hawaiian you're not going to find it here. read more

We visited this place because of all the great reviews. However, we were very disappointed. Our food was undercooked and tough, and even if the food was cooked all the way, I would still rate this place as low tier. Our first impressions of the place were already bad as the lady in the front was extremely rude and short with us. My family had lived in Hawaii for nearly 15+ years and I know what good quality Hawaiian food is supposed to be like. I don't how this place gets good reviews with this quality of food. We will not be coming back to this place and especially with the current owners they have. read more

So so of a place. Not really recommended. I believe it's run by Vietnamese family. The chicken katsu wasn't fried too well. The beef kalbi had less char. Prices were slightly lower than Aloha Kitchen in Renton. read more

What do you do when you are hungry and in Everett? Look up restaurants on Yelp and find one that'll sate your craving. Bonus: plenty of parking here too! The dining area is not open for customers because of Covid but the day was pleasant enough for some takeaway in the sunshine. I went with the combo plate with chicken katsu and loco moco, plus an order of the turon for dessert. The katsu was crisp and tasty, with a slightly sweet dipping sauce. The loco moco was good and the gravy not overly salty. I really liked the hamburger patty and gravy combination = mmm, perfect! I could not eat everything if I wanted room for my banana lumpia and I was determined to enjoy that while it was still warm. I had a bite of the macaroni salad and opted to pass on finishing that. I agree with a couple Yelpers, that stuff was bland. If I'm in the area next time, I'll try out some of their other options. NGL though, that loco moco is definitely going to be tempting me. read more

Love their mochiko chicken (which is a bit different from the ones you'd get in Hawaii) but still yummy. I found this place when I needed to order catering for a party. Local food from Hawaii was the theme so I'm glad I found this place. Their catering menu is very reasonable and I would definitely order from them again. I chatted with the owners who moved up to WA quite a few years ago. Quite friendly! read more

Tried once before years ago, but decided to try again. Will not be going back. THIS IS A FAR STRECH FROM ANY HAWAIIAN FOOD I HAVE EVER HAD. I got the Huli Huli and mochiko chicken. Huli Huli tastes like a mix of teriyaki and Sriracha mixed together. Mochiko was not like any I've had before and was extremely fatty inside (see pic). Inside looks like you just walked into a teriyaki shop with Asian painting on wall and Asian decor. Also ran by Asians (no offense but when I go to Hawaiian I expect at least some sort of Hawaiian there lol. Spam Musubi was the closest thing to being authentic. Macaroni salad also did not taste like anything I've had before. This is not authentic or even close to authentic Hawaiian food I would avoid if that's what you are truly looking for..... read more

Food is ono! Mochiko chicken and Katsu is just like home! Saimin good, highly recommend this restaurant over all the other ones

This is a dream. Great prices succulent pork. Crispy Mochiko chicken. Sauce that comes with it is dank.

Saturday night, and this gal wants some Hawaiian food, so I tried and tried to call, but nobody answered. I decided to march myself to the restaurant. With my trusty furry friend, Frankie to get some amazing yumminess. They aren't open for dine-in, but that was cool, because I anticipated not being able to dine in. I knew exactly what I wanted; mochiko chicken and loco moco. I ordered with no problem, but the woman taking my order was rather surly. She kept telling me in a rather abrupt way that food is ready in 30 minutes. I decided to take a walk up and down the little strip mall. After a few minutes, my food was ready, and the server hadn't somehow still hadn't been bitten by the hospitality bug, and it didn't look like it was going to happen any time soon. Oh, well! I live about a mile away from the restaurant, so I took the walk home in the twilight. When I got home, my food was still warm, and my order was complete Despite the surly treatment at the restaurant, it was totally worth it as I so enjoyed every morsel of that food. Seriously, the Mochiko chicken was beautifully crispy, and the Loco Moco had the most perfectly cooked egg, and the hamburger patty was so tender. Put this together with the super duper delishus sauce! It was so good that I had to spell it incorrectly, because there isn't a proper word to describe this party in my mouth. Finish with the amazing macaroni salad, and you've a nearly perfect food experience. It was almost worth the treatment from surly Shirley... read more

Im In Seattle two weeks for a business trip. I was hungry after work. This feels like a mom and pop restaurant . It's a family type setting. When I went in I was hungry after work and I needed something good to eat. I didn't dine in because I was in a hurry to make it back to the hotel to unwind so I ordered to go. The woman at the cash register was not too friendly but it was end of the day. I can speculate she wish her day would end too. I ordered their bbq mix plate. Bought it for take out. It was a typical Hawaii plate lunch. I think my only gripe is the Mac salad. It didn't taste Hawaii authentic. I don't want to ruin them by giving my opinion on their Mac salad. It's ok. But I didn't like it. The bbq mix and rice was on point. read more

Finding this spot was a happy accident that saved my hunger. What stood out here were a couple items that I've never seen in an Islander restaurant are the Meat Jun and Mochiko Chicken. The Meat Jun is thin slices of marinated beef beef in a egg batter served with their own jun sauce. This felt perfect as it was the first meal I had in the day and the eggs felt like a proper breakfast. The Mochiko Chicken is deep fried boneless chicken coated with mochi powder also served with its own sauce. That was some really crispy chicken and it was pretty juicy as well. The parking lot was almost packed as we came into the plaza around lunch time, but the restaurant was not busy. Don't expect in your face friendly service, it's a mom and pop shop and we only saw an older Asian lady who might be the owner. Food was served fairly quickly and if I'm ever in the area again then I'd definitely stopped by for more Mochiko chicken. 3.5 our 5 stars! read more

We stopped in for lunch today and our experience was great. The service was fast and really friendly. Our server made sure we had everything we needed. And the chicken was beyond delicious. We had the huli huli chicken, and whatever sauce they use is just so good. The chicken itself was tender and flavorful. I also loved the rice, which is something many might not think much of, but rice is my favorite food and I can appreciate the way they cooked it! It was soft and not dry at all. The macaroni salad was also very good, but that's a must for a Hawaiian BBQ place. The best part was that the prices were reasonable and they give good portions. I ordered the mini huli huli chicken plate, and that was just the right amount of food for me. My husband ordered the large plate, and he found it to be very filling, which is saying something because he eats a lot. We will definitely stop here again the next time we're in Everett! read more

Really wanted Hawaiian food and came during the week. Service was poor, I dined in and when ordering the waitress barely spoke to me. When my food was dropped off she never checked on me again but checked on the other two tables frequently. Food was subpar, there was lots of fat on the Kalbi ribs and the chicken was rubbery. Won't be coming back. read more
