Family Meal:  BBQ beef
Teri K.

After a long day, we decided to invite the kids over and order the Luau Family Meal (serves 4) . It comes with choice of 3 main items plus 8 scoops of rice and 4 scoops of mac salad. For our protein we decided on: Curry chicken katsu BBQ beef BBQ chicken The server at the counter was thoughtful and brought our food to us when it was ready. The bag sure was heavy! When we got home we served our dinner with a big salad, (hoping to feel a little less guilty for eating so many carbs). The food and service were no different than our first visit. The people here are so friendly, sweet, and helpful. It was dinner hour so there were some families dining inside plus others waiting to order behind us. Glad to see they are doing good business. We all enjoyed our meal and had lots of leftovers after feeding four adults. Our favorite was the mac salad and the curry chicken katsu.

BBQ 4. B.B.Q. Chicken
Tracy M.

I absolutely love this place for a huge lunch or a great dinner, they serve large portions, The BBQ chicken is so tender and tasty. I first tried the Katsu chicken over a bed of rice, that led me to ordering the BBQ chicken for me and my mom one night. The sauce is the bomb. They even have hamburgers on the menu. This place will definitely fill you up so go hungry.

Beef loco moco with eggs over easy
Kevin C.

Luau Hawaiian BBQ in Santa Rosa was a solid stop on my loco moco crusade. It has a warm, family-owned vibe, and you can really taste the care they put into the cooking. The loco moco did not disappoint with the beef patties being juicy and flavorful, the gravy was rich and satisfying, and everything came together perfectly over a couple of scoops of rice with two over easy eggs on top. I also really enjoyed the macaroni salad, which was creamy and well seasoned. I wished they gave a little bit more rice to soak up more of the sauce, so I should have ordered extra. Prices here are very fair, and the service was quick and super friendly. The restaurant is clean with both indoor and outdoor seating, and there's even a bathroom inside which is always appreciated. The parking lot is spacious, and since the plaza has a bunch of other food spots, it's a great place to mix and match if you're grabbing food with friends. While I was eating an early dinner, there was a steady stream of people coming in every few minutes, which tells me this place has a loyal following. If you're in the area or on your own loco moco mission, Luau is definitely worth a stop. Great flavors, welcoming staff, and solid value make it a place I'd happily return to.

Combo with short ribs and fried shrimp
Marianne A.

Luau Hawaiian BBQ is a great place if you are craving Hawaiian food in a fast casual environment. The restaurant is in a shopping center, but there was definitely plenty of parking. when we got to the restaurant, we were greeted by the staff and the owner and it was pretty easy to order. The restaurant itself is very clean. I ordered the short rib and fried shrimp combo with the mac salad. The food was great. I think I will order the ribs to be a little bit more well done because I like the charred flavor. Can't wait to come back!

Combo plate with kahlua pork and chicken katsu
Jenn H.

I've been trying different Hawaiian food spots for the past few months to find the absolute best. I saw this place had some good reviews so k decided to try it since I was in the area. I got the combo plate with Kalua pork and chicken katsu, plus a side of three fried shrimp. I'll start with the cons; the kalua pork was dry, making it hard to eat. The three shrimp looked big but unfortunately the batter to shrimp ratio was way off. Everything else was great. The service was pleasant and quick. The chicken katsu was crispy and flavorful. The best part though was the macaroni! It's the best I've had from any other Hawaiian BBQ place. I would definitely come back and just not order the kalua pork

2 Item Combo Plate with Volcano Chicken Katsu & BBQ Beef
Alma S.

We came for a weekday lunch. The place was clean, Hawaiian music played softly in the background, & there were table & bar seating options inside, as well as tables outside. The lady who handled our order at the counter was friendly, smiley, & helpful. We ordered two 2-Item Combo Plates--one with BBQ Chicken & BBQ Beef, the other with Volcano Chicken Katsu & BBQ Beef. Everything was delicious! The meats were flavorful, juicy, & tender. The Katsu had good texture with a sweet, spicy sauce. We were offered additional sauces too. Rice was good, mac salad had just the right amount of mayo for my preference. The generous portions easily filled us up & then some. We had a pleasant experience & really satisfying lunch here!!!

We went shopping at Molsberry market, and decided to get some lunch nearby as we were hungry…read more We saw this place, and thought we would try it. So glad we did. We both got the bacon cheeseburger, one with fries. & mine with onion rings. The onion rings were the best I ever had. I just loved them. My hubby loved his fries said they were nice & crispy. Our burgers were so juicy, and flavorful. The bacon was real bacon and wasn't skimpy on our burgers. But, the big hit was the buns! They didn't fall apart like most burger places. These tasted fresh baked like from a bakery. The prices were very reasonable. Next time we will try their shakes made with real ice cream. And yes , there definitely will Be a next time. Yummy!

4 1/2 stars Really…read moregood burgers and tots. The tots... OMG... So crispy and gold brown on the outside and light and fluffy on the inside. Don't skip the tots!! The burger patties are bigger than the buns. A single patty is pretty large, couldn't imagine eating a double. I didn't order it, but I saw a lady at the next table with loaded tots. (Topped with chili). Next time, that's what I'm getting. My chicken tender sandwich was great. Tender juicy chicken with a seasoned crispy breading on a toasted sandwich roll. Kids milkshakes come with a gummy burger candy treat. My only gripe is they don't have Heinz. They have Monarch Ketchup in their condiment caddies. (Gross. Minus half star) There's only a little seating inside, but they have a few tables outside as well. The theme is classic car/diner style. Service was friendly. Just order at the window then pick up you food when it's ready.

On most recent visit we had their Garden Salad and Chicken Parmigiana. Both the salad and the pasta were great! We loved the use of the three-bean salad in the Garden Salad. The Chicken parm was fresh, crispy, and the sauce was wonderfully tangy and fresh tasting. We thoroughly enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and the friendly service. We plan on making an effort to visit more often! Previous review: Only been by here a few times, as it is at the farthest end of town from where I live... That said, every time I have come, I have had great food and service. The fresh wood-oven pizzas are tasty - it is hard to beat a real wood-oven pizza. I have to say their smashburger is one of the best I have had (fries are pretty solid too!). They have a full bar, and good selection of beers and wines - so there is something for nearly everyone here. They get the basics here right - and the overall experience is pretty solid.

The club Sando had brown avocado and the bacon was cooked terribly, raw spots and over cooked spots…read moreat the same time. Also I get different answers about the fries being breaded every time. EVERY TIME. Used to go a lot, but after that experience I think I'm good

My daughter and I went to Eddie's for dinner after watching South Pacific at the 6th Street…read morePlayhouse. We both so enjoyed the Play, and we were searching Yelp for a restaurant (that we hadn't previously been to) that would complete our fun day in a very positive manner - and boy did we hit the jackpot at Eddie's!!! Our waitress, Melissa, was fabulous!! She was so sweet, Johnny on the spot, and attentive to our every request. I explained to her that I was single-sided deaf, and after that, she always approached the table from my good side! The drinks and food were delicious!! For our drinks, I had a White Sangria Spritz filled with diced mango, which was extremely refreshing, and my daughter had a glass of Zin that paired very well with the tasty and crisp (on the edges) Focaccia bread. We then split a yummy Caesar Salad with fresh dressing, and for our entrees, I chose the Chicken Marsala and my daughter the Lamb Ragu - both were savory & rich, and perfectly prepared & displayed!! We topped off the meal with two decadent desserts - Banana Apple Bread Pudding and Cannoli, and walked away feeling so satisfied and happy with our choice to dine at Eddie's - we'll definitely be back!!!
