A fast food place. Menu posted up on a board. Reasonable prices, for sure. Food reasonably good, but beyond question not the best of such foods I've ever had. Yes, I can give a somewhat reserved recommendation to try it, but don't get your expectations up overly high. It's a decent place. read more

Tried lunch here for the Lompoc Restaurant week special. Seemed to be some confusion on the menu choices with the restaurant week menu. Got it resolved and had a good lunch for two. Enjoyed all three chicken dishes as well as the beef ribs. Mac salad great and the rice was good. read more

I went here at 2:30 on it's opening day. These people were CLEARLY not prepared to open on this date. The soda fountain wasn't working at all and they were already running out of food items like egg rolls only 3 1/2 hours after it's grand opening. Their explanation was they were busy since opening and were cleaned out. I'm very highly skeptical of this explanation. It's a weekday and most of Lompoc's working class residents commute out of town to their jobs and are not available to eat here until evening. It was somewhat busy, but tables were clearly still available. My hunch is that they didn't follow the cardinal rule of Restaurant 101...... always have tons of extra food on-hand than usual for your grand opening. My gut says they never had the egg rolls available to begin with, cuz running out of such a small optional side item in under 3 hours of operation just sounds sketchy. Onto the food.... I got the #31 combo. The rice was sticky, but not too much so and broke apart fairy easily..... just the way I like it. I'll leave it to others to rate the macaroni salad cuz I don't like eating it no matter who makes it. The katsu chicken was okay but was clearly left in the fryer too long. The batter was dark and too crunchy....which of course left the chicken fairly dried out. Less time in the fryer to keep them juicier is the easy fix advice for them here. The beef was a bit rubbery, but easily the best item on the plate for me. The BBQ ribs on the other hand are pretty bad. I got just one with the meal and it was very fatty and the meat was very rubbery & chewy. To be fair to them.... the ribs were pretty fatty at Zoe's Hawaiian BBQ in Santa Maria too, but not quite as much and the meat quality was better there.... along with a better grilling of the meat and a glaze. Are all Hawaiian ribs in general this fatty?!? The service was pretty decent and the gal at the register was very nice. I'll give them another chance in the future, but not the best of first impressions with me. read more

It was my first time trying this place and I must say I will return . The girl taking our order was very very patient with me. Plus she explained the food and it texture . She also did substitutions for me which I'm a picky bastard . The chicken Katsu was delish !! The white rice was not dry either . Plus if you join there club you can get free stuff. read more

Food is consistently good. Great for takeout with enough for leftovers the next day. We especially love the Katsu and crispy shrimp!

I tried this place out when it originally opened and wasn't very impressed. I wanted to give it a second chance because the first time I went it was extremely busy. I'm glad I did because the food was great. I have been a frequent customer ever since. The owners are friendly, the food is good and it's reasonably priced. I recommend everyone to try it out or at least try it again. read more

This place has been open for a while now and I drive by it daily. Finally went in today to check it out, and it is honestly some of the best food I have eaten in Lompoc, and very affordable! My wife had the pineapple chicken plate, and I had the Katsu chicken and crispy shrimp plate, both if them absolutely delicious! read more

Deceptively really good food. Quality for your buck. Lace with impeccable service. I've been here two times and have had great experiences both. Newest to say I will be visiting here quite often being that I'm new to the town. I recommend the $10 box with three different kinds of meat. Very good quality and well made. Five stars definitely. Not only for the quality of service but the amazing food. read more

Really good food and prices are very reasonable for Hawaiian food. We bought a mini meal and a 3 meat combo and all was delicious. The cashier girl was very polite and courteous. read more

I like this place, My favorite is the spicy chicken it's super flavorful! The decor is very nice too.

This family-operated Hawaiian restaurant is located at where Quiznos once was. Saw this hidden gem after going to O'Reilly and decided to give it a try. When I went there, the restaurant hasn't officially grand opened yet, but the owner was nice enough to let us in even though he seemed busy. They didn't have everything on the menu yet, so I just ordered the Kalbi Short Ribs plate with Macaroni Salad and rice, one of the most expensive thing on the menu priced at $9.99 and a Hawaiian Sun Passion Fruit tea for $1.50. After some chitchatting, found out that owners of the restaurant are also owner of Magic Dragon Chinese restaurant in Santa Maria, so they probably know what they are doing. The Short Ribs plate was actually a big portion - enough to feed 2 of us! I wish the Kalbi would be more tender and juicy though. But for $9.99, it's a great deal for the amount of food! They also have a lot of sauces to pair with the food. Very well decorated Hawaiian-theme restaurant even with an ocean view in the bathroom! Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick meal with nice atmosphere and cozy seating. read more

I just ate here for the first time today. I had the chicken katsu and shrimp plate, with rice and macaroni salad. I enjoyed everything except the veggies. The shrimp was better than the chicken. I used the katsu sauce to dip. I will be back. read more

Ordered the #29 short-rib and beef combo. First let me say, I like a little meat with my fat BUT, this is what I got: over-priced, tough, stringy and extremely fatty meat with a so-so, minimal flavor. So much for Hawaiian BBQ! The following day I had Steak-ums and they were much better in comparison. Won't be back! read more

We tried the pineapple chicken bowl and a chicken Katsu plate. Both were delicious, quick, and well priced. However we were disappointed when they served the food in a Styrofoam container and the bowl had a plastic lid on it when we told them we were eating in. I wish this restaurant would consider using more environmentally friendly waxed paper serving containers. read more

I LOVE these guys!!! It's convenient for me because I live over in the Glen Ellen area, so it's super easy to just stop there on my way home from where I work in Solvang. The workers have always been so friendly, and they have really quick, efficient service. And, trust me, I manage a shop in Solvang, so I pay REALLY close attention to customer service. I've never had a bad experience here. The only time I ever had to wait longer than usual for my food was because the cook was power washing the grill, which I didn't mind at all, because that means my food got cooked on a clean surface! : ) I usually get the single meat plate of Chicken Katsu when I come here...soooo good!! I like their egg rolls as well! Definitely recommend to anyone thinking about checking it out! read more

**UPDATE** This is seriously the best place to get seafood in Lompoc. $10 for 2-3 pieces of fish and 12 shrimp, plus rice and macaroni salad. You can't beat that anywhere. Not only that, it's Amazing! The fish is fresh and delicious, and QQ Aloha has some of the best shrimp I've ever eaten; always clean and never overcooked. And the chef cooks right in front of you, no microwaves or processed food. If you want a good meal for cheap in Lompoc, this is the place I recommend. The food here is so tasty that despite the slight issue with customer service described in my last review, I couldn't stay away. I'm glad to say the issue is entirely resolved! The new staff is so friendly and any mistakes on my order are swiftly corrected and replaced. Now, the staff takes extra care to make sure everyone leaves satisfied and the effort is much appreciated! I plan to visit here a lot in the future. read more

Food was amazing. I got the beef short ribs and it was delicious. Definitely going there again.

Good Hawaiian bbq plate. Prices have increased to 8.99 and up. Wish there were a better balance of sides to meats. I got a 2 meat plate and barely got any rice or mac salad. read more

Best place to go for a quick and cheap bite, so many good choices and the Hawaiian sodas they offer are delicious. Love the fast service and love how the food fills me up without having to spend so much. I love coming here and i will continue to come back. read more

The whole time I was eating, I was comparing this to L&L, and if you like L&L you will enjoy this. The macaroni salad was not quite the same but still delicious. I had the Mahi Mahi, and it was also amazing-crispy on the outside while tender and juicy on the inside. I tried the Katsu sauce because that is one of my favorites, and it had a bit more BBQ tang than I am used to, but still tasty! I would definitely recommend this place! read more

What kind of Hawaiian restaurant doesn't have Kalua pork or Simin!? If you are in Lompoc and want Hawaiian food, it's worth the drive to Santa Maria to go to Zoe's BBQ. read more

Great place to get some good clean food. Similar to LL Hawaiian. Everything tastes great and not greasy. But you have to go to Kauai to get the authentic Hi BBQ, this will do since the real thing is ~2500 miles away. Oh yes, portions are large. read more

FANTASTIC!!! If you want super shrimp, delicious Korean short ribs and amazing macaroni salad, and GOOD Rangoon crab. You must try QQ ALOHA BBQ! It is about time Lompoc gets a good new restaurant, with friendly knowledgeable service staff. The restaurant was clean, neat and food preparation was fast and stayed hot all thru the meal. Thank you QQ Aloha BBQ, much better than any chain dive keep up the good work. Livermore Sharon and James read more

Have been to this spot quite a few times for lunch. Pretty good. Usually get the bbq chicken combo. Love the mac salad. Very simple but very good. I would like to give this place a 3.5 at least but I have to mention that the customer service has been bad. The last 2 times my family and I went for lunch we ordered from a lady named Robin. She never greeted us. Never smiled. Signed loudly because we took long to order I guess. And it wasn't just that. She was annoyed at our questions and was down right rude. From beginning to end. She needs some serious training in customer service. Even my teenaged daughter noticed and said "wow, that lady was rude. She's acting like her boyfriend broke up with her today". It's too bad because it's employees like this that keep customers away. read more

Good portions and fast service. The katsu is too dry and thin but the bbq items are pretty good.

The fried shrimp was crispy and not greasy. The rice is perfectly cooked not mushy or undercooked. The macaroni salad is flavorful but not killed with a lot of mayo. The people who work here are friendly and the bathroom and dining area is always clean! read more

Great food, low priced, can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Recommend ordering double meats when eating here for the first time to see what you like. read more

Food was filling and pretty good. Wasn't seasoned very well but the ungodly amount of sauce they give you kinda made up for that. read more

Super nice people work here. Anthony was amazing. All the food was tasty! I loved my shrimp and beef plate! We will definitely be coming back again. You should check this place out. read more

We had terrible experience. We have heard from others that they liked it. Perhaps a bad night? However, not going again because we are basically cheap and don't eat out often! Food was just unpalatable. Sorry! read more

Really good. Maybe not great, but definitely good. Very good for the price, nothing over $10. Nice change of pace from the standard fast food fare. Good value. read more

I was concerned because of the low star reviews on this place but I decided to try it anyway and I'm happy we did because it's different and very good. There's no other place in Lompoc like this and I'm really happy it's here. I had the grilled shrimp and it had good flavor and had a nice brown crisp to the outside that I wasn't expecting. My boyfriend had the ribs and bbq chicken. The ribs were a little fatty but they are ribs after all and both dishes had good flavor. We thoroughly enjoyed it and we will definitely be back. read more

Stopped by here on a business trip, great price for the portion. Very friendly staff, got food shortly after placing the order. I got the 3 meats combo, I forgot the name of it, item 30?. Quiet setting, and you can see the chef prepping your food. I enjoyed it so much, I came back 2 more times before I left town. Good stuff!! read more

Don't bother paying mind to all the negative posts about Aloha bbq's mediocrity. The food is great, and the store manager deserves a raise. Don't be fooled. read more

Customer service was awesome! My first time here and she gave me awesome recommendations. The ribs we the best!

Food is so good here that we've been back 3 times in 6 days. BBQ chicken is seasoned great and perfectly sauced. Chicken katusu is crispy and moist in the center. Sauces are delicious. Macaroni salad is amazing. Rice is perfectly cooked. One of our favorite places in Lompoc!! read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - #20. BBQ chicken, chicken katsu, sticky rice and macaroni salad - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

Yeah so I've been around the block a few times and know my Hawaiian BBQ rather well and this is really subpar bbq. Lady at the counter was nice, there were only 2 other small parties yet took almost a half hour to get our food. We got the Hawaiian bbq beef and was disappointed. Not cooked very well and a real lack of flavor. Their bbq sauce is really sweet with no teriyaki sauce in it and they don't even have teriyaki available upon request. I'm sorry but real Hawaiian bbq has sweet ginger teriyaki sauce on it! Looks like I'm still stuck driving to L and L bbq in Goleta or making it myself. read more

Our favorite place to get dinner Friday night. I always call it in before leaving work in the village and it's hot and ready by the time I get to lompoc. Katsu chicken is the best, although I could totally live off the rice/pasta salad and egg rolls (that remind me very much of lumpia). Highly recommended and don't forget to try a side with your order. read more

TERIYAKI SAUCE !!!! Please omg ! Just like in Goleta Hawaiian. Thank you !!!!!!!! Other then that ok .

We crave BBQ in Lompoc! Aloha's BBQ fills that craving nicely. The riblets are delicious, but the first 3 times we bought them the bottom was all fat on bones (on the full order of 4 strips) ... Lately, all the ribs have been meaty with very little fat! This is a wonderful evolution! The flavors, especially the orange duck sauce, are terrific and the pubic relations have improved greatly from our initial visits. Fabulous appetizers to try are: egg rolls, crab rangoons and sesame balls; we buy those for midnight snacks This restaurant has become one of our dinner staples here in Lompoc! Gotta' try them ~~ read more
