Hula’s Island Grill

Social Profile:

The original Hula’s in Monterey was born in 1998, essentially reviving the Tiki Culture. The vision was to create a place where friends, family, and extended family could come together, relax, have fun; and fill their souls and bellies. For 28 years Hula’s has been the local’s favorite. The question of “what is your cuisine?” is best answered with “whatever we are inspired to cook and serve as long as it’s from a tropical climate”. Hula’s offers a wide range of Southeast Asian, Hawaiian, Caribbean, Latin America, and Pan-Asian dishes; and warmly welcomes you to “our house”. Serving premium cocktails too. Brilliant guest has this to say about, the original Hula’s, – CARL: It feels good to be here.

Tropical, tiki-inspired outpost offering a range of Hawaiian eats with an American spin & drinks.

The vegetarian in our group had the Kona chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. She loved the sandwich and the fries! My gluten free had the grass skirt burger with sweet potatoes fries. She also loved her meal. I had the Hula burger with cheddar and house fries. Mine was great we all mentioned how fresh and delicious the bread was. The atmosphere is fun and island “y” I had a ginger beer and my friend had a mai tai and enjoyed it. We are so glad we stopped in!

Had a really lovely meal here. The food was absolutely delicious, and the cozy atmosphere made it such a nice place to relax. The outside seating is fantastic too, perfect spot to sit and unwind.

I had a margarita that was amazing (can’t remember which one it was, but it was definitely worth ordering!). For food, I went for the spicy Thai chicken, not too spicy, just really tasty and full of flavour.

All in all, a great place to stop for good food, great drinks, and a really welcoming vibe. I’d happily come back.

Was recommend to this place by a local and we are so happy we listened. Perfect spot for vegans and vegetarians/ health minded individuals. Service was fast and the food was fresh, delicious, and filling. I got the Buddha Bowl and an arugula salad – the bowl was loaded with fresh veggies and the tofu and ponzu saude we so crispy and delicious. The arugulua salad was also quite tasty. Highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing food! I’m celiac and the waitress was so kind to help me with GF options and do some changes to items which were not GF from the start. The food was fresh and delicious! Tons of vegan GF options too. The backyard is super cute and cozy. We felt so welcomed and left with fully happy bellies.

Not a tourist trap. so two star .
But the food … chef needs basic understanding of food chemistry.
Appetizer: abalone style calamari. Vile. Def Cuttle fish, bland , seemed boiled, reheated.
Main: same sauce from the cuttle fish app
This lime ginger sauce needs salt, some sweetness may be apple juice. It’s monotone with lime and ginger.
Coleslaw: tasted astringent due to the amount of mustard and ginger. inedible!
Crab curry: so much potential! Had to put a ton of salt. but again needs less ginger, something sweet .
It was a torture.
You can surely do better.

We have been to Hula’s several times and will definitely be back.

The staff are generally very friendly and accommodating. One waitress was particularly thoughtful when she realized we were vegetarians, which we really appreciated.

The food is absolutely delicious and there are many vegetarian options. We can particularly recommend the bowls (Buddha and Jungle) and the cakes and pies (Key Lime and Passion Fruit).

Great food, and great atmosphere. We had a lemongrass encrusted halibut, macadamia nut encrusted halibut and southern seas tacos – all very tasty, but lemongrass encrusted halibut is just superb. Make sure to try the lilikoi pie, it’s so yummy!

We had such a great time at Hula’s! The tiki and surf vibe in the place is spot on. The food was amazing – I tried the catch of the day, ono fish (kind of like a tuna steak), and it was seriously delicious. The drinks all sounded super tempting too!

Tasty drinks and appetizers at great happy hour prices! The wings were some of the best we have ever had and are one of the happy hour options. I went in planning to only have one drink but ended up with a second one after my first one was so delicious. Really nice friendly employees. Positive vibes. We look forward to our next visit.
