We just found this looking for a place to grab a quick lunch while visiting family in Sarasota.y girlfriend and I have never had loco moco so we decided to give that a try.
We decided to share an order since it comes with 2 scoops of white rice, 2 beef patties with brown gravy, and 2 fried eggs.
The rice was fresh and fluffy, the beef patties were well seasoned and the gravy tasted like it had the slightest hint of soy sauce and was very tasty complimenting the mixture of flavors. The macaroni salad was good on its own and didn’t taste “strange” for the few pieces that mixed with the rice and gravy since it was all in the same container.
We also tried their 3 different kinds of musubi. There was the perfect amount of eel sauce on each to flavor it without overpowering the flavors of the meats. The katsu was perfectly crunchy and moist on the inside.

We’ve been looking for Hawaiian BBQ and found this gem on Groupon. What a great restaurant! It’s located in a shopping plaza so the parking is very convenient. The restaurant is super clean and I mean spotless! The food was delicious and well prepared. Just perfect like the usual L&L Hawaiian BBQ we enjoyed in California. The customer service is excellent as well. We’ll definitely return to this restaurant. Highly recommend this places for a quick Hawaiian BBQ cravings.

The place is very clean and the BBQ mix I ordered was good and pretty much the same with their other branches I visited before. I came around 2pm and the service was quick. Will definitely be back again to try other dishes. Good to have one close by. Coming here brings back many memories of Hawaii visiting relatives in Waipahu and many military trainings over there.

Haven’t had good L & L in a long time.. Been away from Oahu since 2020 and man I am so glad I discovered L & L here in Sarasota, Florida. The chicken katsu taste just like how it does at home, the Mac salad is so Ono Very impressed, and the owner and staff are very friendly. You feel the Aloha over there and I love it. Definitely coming back! Well worth the 2 hour drive from Orlando!

It was so nice to be able to come here and have a taste of Hawaii after being gone from the islands for 10 years. So happy they opened! Fingers crossed they decide to open in the space Coast soon, there are so many Hawaiians on this side of the state that would love to have one. We drove from 3 hours away, but it was so worth it. Even got a couple plates to take home for the family.

Just as amazing as always. First time going in. Super bright, clean, and fresh, prob more so then any L&L I went to in Hawaii. Staff here was super friendly and helpful. Good came out pretty fast but it was not busy.
LOVE the surfing video playing on the flat screen.
So glad you guys are in Sarasota. Best Katsu anywhere around. You would be hard pressed to find better katsu within 200 mi.
Kaula pork great too. Really everything, I just don’t care for spam.

7-2022 Just back to Sarasota from Hawaii. Check out the pic from the Honokaui, Maui store, we were across the street from them!
This is a known restaurant in Hawaii (for many years) with multiple locations throughout the islands and now the mainland.
Same food, but much larger portions here and better prices then on Hawaii right now!! Understandable, everything out there is shipped in 2k miles or local.
I was able to get katsu chicken with curry sauce delivered it’s on the in-store menu but not on doordash.
I hear they also have Portuguese sausage for the breakfast food if you ask. That’s super exciting since it’s so hard to find on the mainland!
Everything was spot on as expected and they were able to follow my requests for one of each flavor Hawaiian sun as well as make the katsu curry!
Definitely try it out.

It is authentic Hawaiian. We have been to all the islands. A lot of eateries in Hawaii are like this one. Food comes out in Styrofoam cartons as takeout but they also have eat in. No alcoholic beverages. We had the chicken bbq (teriyaki). It had two scoops of white rice and very flavorful mac salad. Plentiful amount of food. You order at the counter and they bring food out to you.

Been here two times now and every time it gets better. The first time I got the Hawaiian bbq combo and is by far the best I’ve gotten in Florida. This time around I ordered the chicken katsu curry and it didn’t disappoint! The portions are more than enough, perfect leftovers. It took me back to when I lived in Japan, it was that good. It was made from scratch which is something that’s rare in this area. The owners and staff are the best, they have the best customer service I’ve seen. I bought my friends here and they couldn’t agree more, it was all wonderful. The spam musubi, the seafood platter, the shaved ice, the pineapple cake, all of it!

The Chicken Katsu was perfect. Service was good. Staff were friendly. My only gripe is that they didn’t have any POG. They had the other Hawaiian Sun drinks but no POG. They also had Kona Brewing beers but usually locals drink Heinekens. 10/10 would recommend for grindz again cahz

We eat here frequently and over the past weekend we had our party catered by L&L and they did an incredible job. Perfect amount of food for the 35 people we had over. Kim was a huge help and went above and beyond to ensure we had the appropriate portions and variety for our guests. Thank you L&L!
