We ordered just about everything in the menu! And the young woman that works front of house is amazing: warm welcome, chill vibe, support friendly and great recommendations! Their pasta salad was great too! But the chicken katsu stole the show. Seems like EVERYTHING there is good, so you can’t go wrong.

I’m updating my review after ordering takeout, and it was a complete disappointment. For $18 a plate, we were given the cheapest, flimsiest plastic containers imaginable, and by the time we got home the food was ice-cold. My son’s $16 teriyaki beef (if you want to call it that) was so dry and tough it could be a called “pile of boot straps.”
The service was also completely lackluster, inattentive, and not at all welcoming. This is absolutely unacceptable for food at this price point. We only ordered here because Pono Hawaiian Kitchen was closed, and the comparison isn’t even close—this place doesn’t come close to matching their quality. After this experience, we will never be back.

Incredible Hawaiian BBQ! So happy that the locals told is about this place. They do the staples incredibly well. Service and food were awesome! We had the Shortribs and the Katsu. Also the Spam Musubi and the fresh Poki. So tasty. Parking sucks! Lol! But it’s worth the walk down the street.

Highly recommend this restaurant, food was delicious and the staff, specifically Numa was awesome. He helped us out of a tough situation when my son and I came upon his restaurant after losing my phone, debit card and van key (it was swept into the ocean). He let us use his phone to call my husband, gave us a meal, and provided comfort to my son. He remind us that everything we lost was replaceable. We were very grateful to have come upon Aloha Island Grille that night. Thank you Numa!

I just stumbled upon this place, and the kalua pork plate was very authentic! I lived in Hawai’i for 14 years, and it definitely took me back to the islands! Simple decor with authentic island grindz, mahalo Aloha Island Grille !

3 1/2 stars. Overall. That being said I only can rate the dish we had partaken. Kayla and fries. According to my reviewer of foods, the shredded pork was seasoned correctly, but not knowing what was additional seasoning were added . This is Way better than L&L imo. Plenty of rice and large pieces of hamburger patties and the decent Although we have a running test we think the patties originated from the Costco burgers patties? Anyway prove me wrong.
As always, post wherever the wind takes you.

Katsu chicken was very fresh. Macaroni salad has the right amount of seasoning. Rice cooked perfectly. Definitely bring me back to middle school in Honolulu. Good job. Will come back again. Waitress was very pleasant.

To start off the service was nice and friendly and very welcoming. Even the vibe was pretty chill. This might just be preference, but had the loco moco and although the burger patties had a nice charbroiled taste to it, it felt like it was lacking in some seasoning. Also a very important part of the loco moco which is the egg; wasn’t runny and fully cooked. The gravy itself was okay, nothing really different from other places commonly known to have loco moco.
