The short ribs and beef ribs are real good basically 5 stars. Where this place lacks is the chicken and steak. Lacks a lot of flavor you find in other Hawaiian BBQs. That also have Dole pineapple soft serve which is always good no matter where you find it. read more

We absolutely loved this place, we ate at the restaurant and got the #1 Beef Rib plate and the ribs were amazing. The meat came right off the bone so nice and their soy/ teriyaki sauce was delicious on the ribs. We loved it so much, we had to order another one to go. Loved the Mac salad with potato pieces. Everything was very well cooked. HIGHLY recommend and loved this location the best. Staffs customers service was great and Lei was very sweet and helpful with explaining their menu and portions. read more

Got to try this place for the first time and we were not disappointed. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We tried the og musubi and the spam mac musubi. Both were very delicious! We also ordered the short ribs plate with rice and macaroni salad. It was great! The short ribs were very tender and flavorful. The macaroni salad was really good too. We will definitely be back. read more

Food was great BUT... we came at around 4:45pm and immediately was told that they were out of beef ribs. That was okay, we can order something else. Then, we were told the wait was about 20 minutes. That's fine too. But it took over an hour for them to serve our food. Not only that, a friend's order was messed up! Their food was awesome but something has to change about the service they provide. read more

The family ate here during Christmas break. Ribs plate was good. However,the mac/potato salad tasted sour/stale/about to go bad. How i wish they could tighten up their quality control of freshness. We've eaten at other matiki locations & we know that mac/potato salad definitely did not taste sour/stale. read more

Matiki Island BBQ - Ribs plate - Hawaiian Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

Can't beat the beef ribs here. Great service and great food. What more could you ask for?

First time trying this place. I ordered through Uber eats and let's just say- there ordering options are not the best. I chose Mac and rice on both of my $20+ plates and was only given Mac salad. When I called to inform the staff, they said there was nothing they could do because their receipt only said Mac salad. I told her mine said Mac and rice. She said they have had this issue a couple of times before. She said if I came by they would remake my plates. Ma'am, I ordered uber because I don't have a car right now so how can I go again? Not her faulty though. I then said they should fix the menu on uber so it reads the same on their end since they are having issues and that is when she changed the story. She said they've only had that happen once before. As for the food. I haven't even ate it yet lol. I'm going to wait for my husband to go get us some white rice from Panda across the street. read more

We went to the new location on S. Eastern. The entire team is friendly and helpful. It like being at your Hawaiian friends house eating at their backyard bbq of ginormous beef ribs! Everything is so good, you can't help but eat more read more

Great fresh Greek food in a nice atmosphere conveniently with multiple locations in Vegas

Friendly and efficient employees! We tried the beef ribs since they seems to be the most popular on the menu. Beef ribs are not as easy to get right, but these were tender and pretty much fell off the bone. The flavor was solid. I'll probably have to try something else to get a better idea about this place. Will be back to try something else. read more

The food was delicious and you get large portions. The Service was great the young man even let a customer taste his short ribs from his lunch. The restaurant was spacious and good music was playing. The decoration's on the wall reminded me of the islands. I highly recommend this establishment and will definitely go back read more

Inspect your food before eating from here. If I was not paying attention I would have ate 3 pieces of aluminum foil. I think they should pay more attention to detail when serving food to the public. read more

For those who loved genuine Hawaiian BBQ like me, this is the place where you can find the authentic style Hawaiian bbq. They're generous, reasonably priced and of course, delicious! You can't go wrong with Matiki Island BBQ. I tried their two places, las Vegas and Henderson. They both very good. Henderson has bigger dining area, but you can't see their kitchen. But the food and sizes of food are still a lot. I highly recommend this two branches. Stop by and you'll be tempted to buy their food. Just follow the smell and you'll be there at no time. Just bring your wet nap. read more

Door dashed our food each time.... Their beef ribs were phenomenal as well as their spam Mac musubi. The kalbi and steak combo (scoop of rice and scoop of macaroni) with a side of steamed veggies were also delish... Any time there's a craving for Hawaiian BBQ, this is the place!!! read more

The beef rib plate is rate #1 pick for a reason a must have my new to go place in Henderson

Wow great portions, great taste and the ribs is really that good. When you have a chance order additional sauce and rice. Its better then the 5star hotel. Give it a try. read more

Saw this place on line. Came a few weeks ago I ordered the beef ribs for me, and the short ribs for my wife. Pretty good! Good enough I wanted to try it again a few weeks later. What a mistake that was. I again ordered the beef ribs. This time they were over cooked and dry. But I also made the mistake of ordering the steak and chicken combo. Their portions are no joke. But this was the worst teriyaki steak I have ever had. It was beef jerky, thin, and almost as dry as beef jerky. After a few bites, we ended up throwing it away. Not to mention I have never been to a Hawaiian barbecue place that makes you pay for extra teriyaki sauce. I will stick to the place on Saint Rose from now on. read more

Got their chicken and kalbi plate and it was awful. For $22 I got dry chicken (which is pretty hard to do with dark meat) and raw kalbi. I had ordered it on door dash and got 2 rice with a scoop of macaroni and added an extra scoop of macaroni. First I've never had potatoes in the macaroni salad it was like a filler. Taste wasn't good either! It's like the bbq the meat on grills that have never been cleaned. Seasoned grill is different from burnt grills from all the marinade. I had also asked for extra teriyaki sauce which they charge $0.50 for... it's literally water soy and sugar. It's so watered down! There was no sauce on the chicken or kalbi, but to charge for extra when it doesn't come with any and on top of it all, the rice and macaroni salad tasted like burnt bbq from the meat! This was so awful, I would never recommend anyone even if it was free! read more

Horrible experience visiting for the first time patron. If this is a Hawaiian Polynesian restaurant they should be playing Hawaiian Polynesian music and not rap music. The music was very loud with explicit vulgar lyrics and racial slurs. This was a very uncomfortable atmosphere. There was children in the restaurant with inappropriate music. The food menu was not friendly. I wanted the veggie and steak with veggies with onions. I was told no because they only use onions for the pig recipes not for the general menu. One of my family members ordered the beef ribs it looks like somebody ate them before we got to them because there was no meat on the bone just bones. The teriyaki sauce was watery. The waiter said they changed the ingredients. The chicken was dry and no flavor. This is a one-time and done patron not coming back the restaurant loses. The management should go undercover and really see how the employees treat customers when the bosses/managers are not around. shameful read more

Great food, large portions and it tastes like home for me. No pictures because I didn't have time for that. Great service and I appreciate that my takeout order was verified that I'm the person that placed the order. Mahalo! read more

We wanted to try something new and what a mistake picking this place! We were greeted nicely. We ordered the "Big Kahuna". It was a bad sign when the food appear in less than 5 minutes. It came with 3 meats and rice and salad. Meats were overcooked and inedible. Later that night, we became ill. Lets say if you want to clean out your stomach and colon eat here. Worst $38 I ever spent. read more

The beef rib combo is the bomb and they serve a large portions. Can't wait to try the other items on the menu.

Wow! I found my local style island food! First of all am a teriyaki steak fan! Their teriyaki steak is old school style! They marinate the steak in teriyaki sauce then they grill it to perfection and give you additional teriyaki sauce! Their Kobe ribs are awesome! Melt in your mouth. The casual Island style decor & the local music vibe! You will always find island people to talk to! Their service is outstanding! So nice & friendly! Our server was Tiffany! Go check them read more

Went to this place for the first time for the raving reviews and ordered the big kahuna. Got home opened it up and WTF this was $40! They skimp you on the meat the reviews have to be fake. What a damn scam I'm so disappointed and we drove like 30 mins for this. Called to let them know Shayla (I think the supervisor) had me send her photos then admitted that it does look like a lot less than advertised. Said we could get credit I was fine with that then changed her mind and said her manager said we took out the meat and we will get no refunds. Transferred to speak to the manager and omg she was so immature was arguing with me like a toddler and said she never said we took the meat out like Shayla had told me. She said when the food leaves the store they are not responsible ok that's fair if you are freaking being honest with the portions we wouldn't have an issue. So here is their trick if you eat at the place they load it up but if you take it to go you will not get what you paid for since in her words "they are not responsible for the item once it leaves the store" all the reviews with low stars are correct don't fall for this basic ass place overhyped L&L (photo is what I received) also the "manager" blocked my number so immature I never got her name. read more

Matiki Island BBQ - Big Kahuna plate that's is supposed to be LOADED according to them. Waste of $40 - Hawaiian Near Me - Henderson, Nevada

Atmosphere is nice, easy to grab takeout. We got the beef rib plate and a spam macsubi. Unfortunately the beef ribs had maybe a bite of meat on then, so I cannot recommend them. The spam macsubi had great flavor and the seaweed wrap was very nice. Will have to try other items. read more

The service was good but the teriyaki steak quality did not feel good. I got sick that evening after eating here, was sick for 2 days. I ate around 6pm and felt off right after. Because I'm not sure if it is a stomach flu or bad food I gave them three stars to give them the benefit of the doubt. Nonetheless do not order the teriyaki steak it tasted of poor quality. read more

Huge portions, great food. Ordered their food from a delivery service, food was still hot. I like that they separated the mac salad.

So good! Stopped here with my husband for lunch got the beef ribs, 10/10 so cute the pregnant girl in the front. Will come again

Definitely a MUST for Henderson neighbors delicious food and generous portions of the plates !!! You can't beat it !!! read more

Food was delicious. The wait for the food was a long so but that might be due to the place just opening up, brand new location. Otherwise,great place. read more

Pleasant experience! They borderline treat you like family when dining in! Best location hands down 100%!

I paid 9$ for two sides ribs and only got one rib . Mind you the other few times I've gotten one side for 4$and they always have given me two ribs. This time that I paid for two sides I only get one single rib? Also the people working there are not friendly at all. I walked in and the guy was on his phone texting right in my face until I said something. Then he proceed to say you have to pay (mind you I paid online) I told him I already paid and he was like ohhhhh and handed me the food. Also the coconut bun hardly had sauce and was not as pictured read more

I couldn't wait to try the ribs, what a disappointment! Mostly fat, hardly any meat. My dog enjoyed them. Won't be back My son ordered the teriyaki chicken, dry as a bone. 36.00 down the drain. read more

Flavor is good, but this location serves chicken and steak that is so dry. It tastes like it was already pre-cooked then reheated once we ordered it. read more

Honestly I was only going to give this place 2 stars but Kat the manager gave us such amazing customer service that I am adding 2 stars more just for her! First off we went in for the ribs, we hadn't eaten all day so we were starving. I got two orders of the rib plates and 1 kalbi plate and a few Musubis. It was about $78 so the ribs were so dry and they had absolutely no meat so very disappointing and the thing that we were disappointed about as well is the rice was not cooked so it was hard either from not being cooked correctly or long enough or because it was left sitting out and it dried out and turned hard. The rice in the musubi was also very hard I hurt my tooth cause one of the hard rice got stuck in between my tooth and gum. Also the spicy chicken musubi was very dry and flavorless. I just think for the prices I'd expect better quality Hawaiian food. Honestly I will go back only because Kat noticed we were not too happy with our food and she comped one of our meals and the musubi. She then brought out 2 fresh musubi with rice that had just been cooked, I felt like she did not have to do all that since we didn't complain but she was very sweet and professional. Now for the Mac it was insanely salty it did have good flavor and potential to be the best Mac but because of the extreme amount of salt, it was horrible. The kalbi was brought out raw. I'm not a fan of well done red meats but I'm also not a fan of raw meat. A good Med Rare would've been amazing but the kalbi was cold in the middle because of how raw it was. All in all we were very disappointed with the food but we felt like they do deserve a second chance because of how much Kat cares about the quality of the food. There's is genuine room for growth and Kat demonstrated shes attentive and is willing to fix and help her team grow. My family and I are looking forward to seeing how Kat makes the quality of the food better. One last thing the ambiance was great. I loved that their playlist was 2000's R&B and so many more hit songs that just gives you a nostalgic feel. They also play some newer songs and that's also nice. The decor is very cool and it makes the place feel welcoming! read more
