Awesome Food, Awesome People from Hawaii, Awesome Service, and did mention the food, It was Delicious and great prices, So if your looking for something other than fried food and High quality food that is healthier for you, than head over and get you some Hawaiian Food in Fairhope. It is in the back of a Bar, which that is the only thing but I know if we support them they can get their own place eventually, So support these local Hawaiian Restaraunt owners and Enjoy their Food as I did! 😃 God Bless! đŸ«¶đŸ”„đŸ™đŸ€ŸđŸ€™

Picked up some food for 70 guests and it was amazing! Everyone is still talking about how great the food was, 3 days later. The pork stew was on of the best things I've EVER had and the chicken was perfect. They are the sweetest family and went above and beyond helping me load all the food. They even gave me a piece of the guava cake, which was so good! Can't wait to eat this food again!

Was driving through the area and was soooo lucky to see this spot on Yelp! My husband and I just moved to the South from Honolulu last year and we have been missing Hawaiian food like crazy.
Look no further! Aloha Made BBQ is a family owned, Veteran owned and as legit as it gets! Niu and his wife Raquel are so nice, welcoming and full of the aloha spirit.
Had to get the two meat plate with chicken and kalbi, 2 scoop rice, 1 scoop Mac salad. Also ordered the loco moco. Everything was delicious! The food is so ono. It really tasted like being back on the island.
Niu was also kind to give us a sample of the kalua pork - tender and juicy and had that sweet smoky flavor, just perfect!
Located on the left side of the VFW building, I cannot recommend this place more. We will definitely come back up this way for the food and the friendly vibes.

Amazing little hidden gem! I stumbled upon this spot thanks to a connection through my daughter’s soccer team, and I’m so glad I did. The food here is absolutely delicious—every dish is perfectly marinated, full of flavor, and cooked to perfection. You can really taste the care and quality that goes into every bite. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the people behind the counter make you feel like family. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a meal, this is the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and again.

Oh my God. The first bite was life-changing.

I got the mixed plate lunch with short ribs, beef, and fried rice. I think I'm moving to Hawaii tomorrow. I don't have a job lined up, don't know where the hell I'm going to live, don't know how I'm going to get my car there, but it doesn't matter. If this is how Hawaiians cook food and eat every single day, then I'm throwing caution to the wind. The flavor was so profound and rich and I'm telling you I don't know what they marinated or spiced this meat with, but God is apparently in Fairhope, Alabama.

The young man who took my order was such a kind and friendly and relaxed dude. We chatted for a few minutes while I waited for the food to come out. Absolutely can't beat it.

As a Hawaiian girl living in the mainland I can attest that everything from the food to the service is exactly like being back home! Every time my husband and I visit we are welcomed with aloha, island music, and sizzling sound of meat. I’ve been to over 20 states and look for Hawaiian food everywhere I go. Nothing has even come close to what they do here. This place is the hidden gem of the gulf coast.

Aloha Made Hawaiian Barbecue sets a high standard for island-style cuisine, combining bold Hawaiian flavors with exceptional service that reflects the true spirit of aloha. Every visit is a reminder of what great food and genuine hospitality should feel like.

Food Quality:
The culinary execution at Aloha Made is consistently impressive. Their kalbi short ribs are expertly marinated and grilled to perfection, offering a deep, smoky flavor profile balanced with just the right touch of sweetness. The garlic shrimp is another standout—tender, perfectly seasoned, and sautĂ©ed in a rich, savory garlic butter that soaks deliciously into the accompanying rice.

The grilled chicken is juicy, well-charred, and infused with a marinade that delivers layers of flavor in every bite. Both proteins are satisfying on their own but truly shine when combined in one of their generous combo plates.

The sides are equally well-crafted. The macaroni salad is cool, creamy, and delicately seasoned, serving as the perfect counterbalance to the bold flavors of the main dishes. Their spam musubi is a nostalgic touch that’s executed with precision—crispy edges, seasoned rice, and a sweet-savory glaze that brings everything together.

Every meal is served in hearty portions at a fair price point, and the quality remains consistent across visits. It’s clear that the kitchen takes pride in honoring the tradition of Hawaiian barbecue with care and attention to detail.

Customer Service:
The service at Aloha Made is second to none. Staff members are consistently warm, friendly, and efficient—welcoming you with a smile and a genuine desire to make your experience enjoyable. Orders are taken quickly and accurately, and the team is always happy to answer questions or accommodate specific preferences.

Whether dining in or picking up takeout, you’ll find the process smooth and the interaction positive. It’s this kind of service—personal, attentive, and respectful—that transforms a good meal into a truly memorable experience.

Final Thoughts:
If you’re looking for authentic Hawaiian barbecue that delivers both in taste and service, Aloha Made is a must-visit. From their perfectly cooked shrimp and chicken to their attentive and personable staff, every aspect of the experience is rooted in excellence. It’s a place you’ll want to return to again and again.
