    2 meat plate with Teriyaki Beef and Chicken Katsu, Macaroni Salad, and white rice.  Spam Musubi and Manapua
    Becky J.

    One of our favorite local eats! My first time eating in the place rather than doing take out, and was a cute spot! Hawaiian vibes were perfect! We tried many items, and literally nothing disappointed! Definitely recommend if you need a Hawaiian food fix. The Macaroni salad was perfect too!!

    Klaus pork, cabbage salad, white rice.

    My husband and I found this place last night after searching on the maps for Hawaiian food. The service was attentive, helpful, and friendly! The atmosphere made you feel like you weren't in Phoenix anymore, like just visiting a local beach or something. We ordered the food to take home and the presentation was perfect, and the food was 10/10 delicious. I ordered the Kalua pork, cabbage salad, white rice. My husband ordered the chicken, beef, spinach salad, and white rice. We are already planning on eating there again!

    Had dinner with my mom and sister here on Friday evening and we were excited for some yummy Hawaiian food. We arrived and waited in line to order as there was a family ordering before us and only one person manning the register. Once our turn, we ordered: One two meat plate - Chicken katsu, Kalua pork, macaroni salad, and white rice One meat plate - Kalua pork, macaroni salad, white rice One Spam Masubi One pizookie with ice cream We didn't wait too long and the food was brought to our table. The food came out hot and the portions were decent. We dug in. The Kalua pork was cooked perfectly but needed flavor. It was missing some type of seasoning. The chicken katsu was my favorite as it was flavored, crunchy, and crispy - mmmm. The macaroni salad didn't have any flavor and was bland. The white rice was cooked well and the spam masubi was really basic. The pizookie was pretty good but after a few bites it became a little too sweet, so we only ate half. There are several tables set up inside and an outdoor patio. There were a few patrons dining in and several to go orders so it was a pretty busy night. Service was good. I'm glad we checked this place out. I will be back for some more Chicken Katsu and Chicken Katsu only.

    This place is always consistent, clean, and the service is great! I love the macaroni salad, and the flavor of the chicken! The Katsu chicken is also really good! Don't forget dessert and get the Dole whip ice cream! Did I mention they have slow roasted pig for your next catering event? Give them a shot!

    Garlic chicken on the left and Kalbi ribs on the right

    First off I just moved here two years ago. Local boy from Hawaii for 50 years. I found this place close to my son's school and thought I give it a try. The owner Moki needs to go back home and get his taste buds back. First the music you play is not Hawaiian. It's Polynesian like what they play at the Polynesian Cultural center on the north shore. Second your spicy ahi poki is mayonnaise on cubed ahi tuna and has no taste, does not taste like back home. What is the spicy taste? It's so haole style. Second your garlic chicken is not authentic, it tastes like orange chicken from Costco. Third your Kalbi ribs was ok but too small of a portion for what you charged. I paid $51 for two plates and a poki bowl. Brah you need to take it easy on your prices. If the quality of the food tasted like the real deal then ok. Sorry brah no can give you one good rating. Try again. Also your Mac salad had no taste and under cooked. Again Mac salad needs to be way better. Go back home and try come back again.

    If you're craving the buttery, garlic shrimp from Hawaii, this place is pretty legit!!! I love L&L…read morebut I wanted to support a mom & pop shop and found this place. They also gave garlic chicken that tastes like mochiko chicken , guava cake and malasadas!!!! I tried their garlic shrimp and it was AMAZING. It definitely hit my craving for some Hawaiian garlic shrimp. Love the garlic rice & ofc the sweet Hawaiian mac salad. They also seemed to have won best Hawaiian Food in AZ 2024 I can't wait to come back to try their kalbi and ahi poki. If you're looking for GOOD FOOD with a wholesome staff, this is the place for you.

    Came here with my Yelp friend. It had been on my list forever, and I was so happy to finally try…read moreit. It's tucked away in the corner of a strip mall, and I've probably passed it a gazillion times and never even noticed it was there. My friend had called the day before to see if there was anything gluten-free on the menu. They were so helpful when we showed up. They had remembered her call and could tell her exactly what was gluten free. This is a very casual order at the counter kind of place. The dining room is simple, but that's okay because the focus is on the yummy food. They have single plates and double plates on the menu. I got a plate that had kalbi and kalua pork. It was served with white rice, macaroni salad, and kimchi. It was amazing! The pork tasted Smoky and delicious, the kalbi beef had just the right amount of sweetness to it. The macaroni salad was also perfect. I got quite a bit of food for my money. I was able to make it into two meals because there was no way I was going to finish it in one sitting. I really like Hawaiian food, and this one is so much better than some of the chain restaurants. It's slightly more in price, but it's 100% worth it. We sat and talked for a couple hours at least. While we were sitting, there was a period when every table was taken. So it does seem like quite a few people know about this place and come. I highly recommend it!
