So I just used DoorDash to order a pork combo. I wanted a plate with all rice but I guess I ordered it wrong. When I got my food there was a note attached to my food and they got exactly what I wanted. To the employee who wrote the note THANK YOU! You’re an amazing employee. I will definitely be back with great service like this. Thanks again

First timers here at L&L Hawaiian Barbecue! You absolutely cannot beat the price for the amount of food that you get.
Aside from that, I’m sure you’re wanting to know how it tasted? It was simply incredible. We orded the Seafood Combo Plate along with the BBQ Beef plate.
Every meat and piece of fish was beyond tender. You did not need a fork or knife to cut the meat. It fell apart with ease. It was filled with endless flavor.
Although this is probably preference, I wasn’t a fan of the rice. It didn’t provide much flavor – but that’s not really too important for what you get. The macaroni salad side that’s included was simply perfect. Not tangy, not too sweet.
My only complaint was that it was cold – the door was wide open for the dining area.
The food and portion sizes are simply incredible for the price.

Food is good but pricey. After trying to order a family pack for $125, they wanted to charge $2 extra per scoop of rice being swapped to Mac which makes zero sense. They claim it’s $0.50 a scoop when you buy a normal meal but 4X more to swap the same amount when you pay $125 for a family pack.
Instead I called Eastlake where there was zero charge and I have never been charged for swapping it.

This L&L is the best! I’ve been to so many and have been disappointed at more than expected. The long Beach location was an embarrassment to the name. This location is always great. It was even better than the one in Oahu. Its always busy, but it’s worth the wait. The servings are good size and the staff are the best out of every location as well. I usually get the kalua pork, it’s been awesome every time here.

It’s not the greatest looking L&L aesthetically, but the food is the same quality as the other locations I’ve been to. The macaroni, rice, and chicken plate is hard to beat when you’re starving.
It’s consistent, filling, and flavorful. Not my first choice, but definitely not my last. A reasonably priced decent meal.
The staff is chill as well. I don’t know why people say they’re rude, they’re really just very busy and trying to keep things organized.

Staff is great, food is amazing, I’m only rating it a 2 because of how hot it always is in this place. The poor employees have to endure the hot and moist atmosphere, while it’s 98 degrees outside, while next to grills all day. They are very humble employees who don’t seem to complain, but the sweat on their foreheads tell you speak for them. They move slowly and it’s definitely because their bodies have been working so hard in this heat. When I asked the cashier if they get AC to make sure it wasn’t just a fault or outage, but they just said the owner is old school.. hello? It’s 2025, what business as big as L&L who has been running for so many years. They definitely make enough money to at least treat their employees to the environment they deserve. To not care for your employees who bust their asses for you is extremely selfish. Stop treating workers who are already underpaid like animals, and even then shelters treat their animals better than these companies treat their hard working employees. SMH, extremely disappointing.

Great food and the portions are huge! The katsu chicken and macaroni salad is always amazing.

Quality of this location has gone down! Walked in and it looked like a storage room with boxes and chairs stacked. Mostly all signage is hand written. The food quality was terrible. Rice was old and hard, very clumpy. The pork chop that is now served rather than the spareribs was dry, beef was high in fat, and the chicken lacked lots of flavor. Disappointing because this used to be our go to spot.
