Hawaiian Restaurants near Mesa, AZ

“Food was excellent and delicious. So many plates to choose from at a very reasonable price. The atmosphere was awesome. Whoever's Playlist that was playing over the speakers, with Hawaiian Reggae, was on point. My new favorite spot for Hawaiian Food 🤙“

“it's a little daunting if you have never picked your own stuff before, but I generally picked everything I liked and it was pretty bomb. great place and the tea is good too“

“Great bowls, reasonably priced.“

“So I have been coming to Mokis for years. I stopped coming because the last couple times I came in the quality of the food wasnt as good as it used to be. For some reason I thought id give it another shot and to my surprise the food was much better than the last few times. If you've felt the same way I did I would suggest giving them another try.“

“Love this place! The love and passion for the food they create and serve is evident in the atmosphere! The staff makes you feel like family. The food is so authentic tasting and you don’t feel like “I could have made this at home”. Best Hawaiian food in AZ hands down.“

“Aloha Kitchen relies on being different, but passes the cost on to the customer.

I really enjoyed the char on Aloha Kitchen's chicken and bulgogi. You can hardly find a genuine char outside of a hibachi or teppanyaki. For the area, this is great food, and I wouldn't mind returning. However, the price of the food would keep me at bay. At $16+ per plate, you're looking at roughly 12 oz of food, which isn't bad, considering the flavor profile, but isn't great either.

Based on my recent past experiences, I haven't been able to find a comparable teriyaki chicken that matches (or even comes close to) the level of beautiful char flavor here.

If I were in the area, I would need to be in the mood for this type of food and then consider my options. Knowing that there isn't a better place in Mesa/Tempe might force me to return here, assuming the price was right. 4/5 stars“

“I've been to this location a few different times, and the food has always been fantastic. I've had multiple of the dishes and never been disappointed. Meals come out fast and freshly hot, with filling and tasty options like the chicken katsu and crispy shrimp.

I've never liked macaroni salad because, in my experience, it is typically slimy and bland, but Ono's salad is the exception, and it's the first time I've wanted seconds. Another worthwhile side is the spam musubi, which is another example of the restaurant having better quality compared to the places I've visited with comparable options.

Ono doesn't serve fresh drinks; however, there is a cooler with appropriate Hawaiian beverages alongside the standard fountain machine. Customers can buy whole coconuts, and guava pies are sold as a dessert.

The interior design is simple but pleasant with hanging lights and a clean lobby with many seating options, including an outdoor patio. Tropical music is often played, and artificial flowers are at both the front and back of the restaurant. It feels humble, cozy, and distinct enough from other places even without having that many decorations.

It's a casual and cute place, and I'll be sure to stop by again for more rice and fish.“

“Everything was amazing and delicious“

“Always high quality at a good price.“

“This is why I shop local!! Been meaning to check them out and I picked up a Maui plate with mac salad and katsu chicken after work. Best mac salad I've ever had and the katsu chicken was so well breaded and delicious. Also was super quick and the amount of katsu chicken I got for 12 bucks was amazing.“

“We were greeted with friendliness when we walked in the door. The items on the menu were diverse and creative, with a mix of more standard fare. The food was delicious with an enjoyable mix of seasoning and well cooked fare. The wait was appropriate for the cuisine. A wholly pleasing experience.“

“Love all the options here--so many fresh add-ins!“

“The offerings are vast and the poke is delicious. The place is immaculate and affordable and it models a business be back consciouness about sustainability and the future of our environment and our planet.
Kudos. I'll be back often.“

“Great food at a great price. Best Poke Bowl I have had yet“

“Two words.. Absolutely Delicious!!!!“

“Huge shoutout to Jamil! He was friendly and provided excellent customer service. He took the time to answer my questions, made great recommendations, and ensured my order was prepared exactly how I wanted it. His positive attitude and attention to detail really stood out and made my visit enjoyable. The food was delicious and Jamil’s outstanding service made the experience even better.“

“Went here 6/20/26 and got 2 bowls. The person doing my bowl seemed new and totally skimped me with toppings lol. Was also slightly rude when ringing up my parter and I. I usually get a fair amount of toppings which is fair for the price I’m paying. The bowl on the left was my bf’s. The person that made my boyfriend’s bowl was super friendly and gave a fair amount of toppings (seen in the crab portion). Was a little annoyed as i am regular customer and haven’t ever had a bowl with such small portions of toppings but overall I love Ahi Poki and typically have great service other than this time. :/“

“My son and i love this location, we've visited others and have left disappointed when we reach the rice and realize its not fully cooked. The rice is spot on and the portions are great, enough for my son and i to share! And the service was fast and knowledgeable.“

“We’ve tried a few poke places, and this is our favorite! Fresh ingredients, good portions, a nice variety, and friendly service. Even though other poke restaurants are closer to our house, we keep going to this one. I would have included a picture, but I’ve already finished eating the food.“

“The food is so good and so fresh!! Hands down the best poke bowl I’ve had and will definitely be returning. James helped me today and was so informative and patient with me being my first time in. Really good food and customer service !!!“

“Best Poke and friendliest staff in AZ!!“
