Aina is a place I would visit at least 3-4 times a week if my wallet allowed it. The owner is so kind and is making the best Hawaiian food I’ve ever had. The poke wonton nachos are incredible. Wontons made fresh and the poke is always solid! If you love tuna you can’t go wrong with the ahi katsu. I love this place and I’ll keep going back again and again and again

Love this place! Only thing missing is Musubi, because I don’t want to make it all the time. My daughter likes to try different variances. The ahi, pork and Mac are bangin’ for sure! Stoked you’re back!!!!
P.S
The Yellowjacket’s suck this time of year. If you’re sitting outside, make sure you give them a little morsel at the end of the table so they don’t try to eat your food. Ha ha!

Born and raised on Kauai and Ive been excited to try the chili pepper chicken (knowing how iconic it is to Kauai). But it’s the second time I’ve been here to try it and it wasn’t available. No biggie, so we tried the spicy ahi poke bowl and the chicken katsu plate. Spicy ahi bowl was not a traditional Hawaii poke bowl, it was more of a salad. It definitely catered more to Bend folk than to Hawaii folk. Katsu plate was pretty good. Mac salad was a little bland.

WOW. My wife and I were at st. Charles after our daughter was born and looking for something other than hospital food. This place was right around the corner and luckily open so we placed an order. HOW has this place been hiding from me this long!this is no question some of the best food in Bend. I have close friends that live on Kauai in Princeville and visit often. I’ve not had food this good there! This place is an absolute gem and I will be a regular here now.
P.s. we got the ahi katsu, the shredded pork plate and one of the poke bowls. All were absolute

Very authentic. Best Hawaiian food I’ve had on the mainland. Also good sized portions, well worth the price and the owner/operator is really friendly and helpful.

If you’re lucky enough to catch them when they have tuna, get the ahi katsu. I should’ve posted a pic of the perfectly cooked tuna cross section!

Great food. Have to say the anai fries with the pork were superb. The rest of the group had food envy and went and ordered their own
The staff were cool and friendly too.

The guys at Aina were great, super friendly … We had the Ahi Katsu and the Crunchy Poke Bowl, and it was delicious and filling.
When we told them that this was our first Hawaiian food experience here in Bend, they came out and gave us a complimentary side of their chicken Katsu !! Can’t beat that service, we highly recommend.

This place was amazing. I got the ahi katsu with Mac salad and rice. The Mac salad was amazing, the rice was cooked perfectly and the tuna was great. If your looking for some Hawaiian cuisine I would definitely recommend checking this place out.

Aina is one of my favorite restaurants in Bend! The first time my wife and I went, we got the Poke Nachos. They are ridiculously good! They make the chips with fried wontons and there is a bunch of flavor in them. I actually ended up going the next three days in a row to try out all of their dishes. And not only is the food absolutely amazing, the owner, Ian, is one of the friendliest business owners I have ever met anywhere.
