Hawaiian Restaurants near El Monte, CA

“The place was empty, it is a small location but the food was delicious. The serving was great for the price. They have good selections of food. There is a 3% percent charge if you pay with a card so do keep that in mind if you go. There is plenty of parking so I recommend this place if you are near and craving Chinese food.“

“A legit Hawaiian food spot, I haven't had a good garlic shrimp plate in CA until now (it reminds me of Giovanni's shrimps). Also, I tried their crunchy Gojujang fried chicken and beef ribs and they were delicious. I would definitely recommend these dishes as a first timer here and wash it down with Dole pineapple slushy.“

“it's a friendly place with alot of happy smiles, it's food is great! best Hawaiian food I've tasted in a while... u can usually catch the owner at the shop and is always willing to talk to u as if u are part of the family.“

“mac salad! nice n firm, but not too hard w pieces of potatoes“

“I've been to this place maybe 100 times and gotten the exact same thing every single time

This is my favorite poke spot. They have the best bang for your buck out there and I highly recommend this place

12/10“

“Fish was fresh and flavors were great. Love that they separate the warm rice from the cold poke when you get it to go. The only thing I’d say is beware if you add cucumber: my poke container had a lot of liquid at the bottom from the cucumber salad, which created a bit of an unpleasant texture to the rest of the ingredients that were also at the bottom of the container. But overall, I really enjoyed it!“

“If you know, you know.

This little hidden gem serves great Indonesian and Hawaiian comfort food classics. You truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, but if it’s your first time, you must try the crispy fried chicken and the Indonesian fried rice.

This place is clearly run by people who care about what they do, and it shows in the quality of the product.

There’s not a lot of space inside, so it’s generally a takeout spot, but don’t let that deter you from trying it.“

“Roll Factory does a lot of things right, but it’s the purple rice that sets the tone—its their signature unique touch. The fish is consistently fresh, cut clean, handled with care.

There’s a wide range of sauces, but the Truffle Ponzu is the standout—rich, bright, and surprisingly restrained.

It’s not the flashiest poke in LA, but it might be the best. Thoughtful, unfussy, and deeply satisfying.“

“I LOVE coming here whenever I'm in the area! I got the spicy beef and some spam musubi along with a Thai tea. The spam musubi is to die for, I finished one so quick I was confused where it went ?

The spicy beef was so savory and tasted like home, and the Thai tea tastes legit. They have green tea too which l've had before and is perfect! Sweet but not too sweet.

The owners were super sweet and the ambience is so cute, very Hawaiian themed. I have no complaints at all!?️❤️“

“Clean, Neat, Great community and work ethic“

“Great food, cool decor Cozy.“

“never been disappointed� food and service are pretty much excellent�“

“So tasty, fresh, clean and healthy as one would desire from Poké. Gourmet selection of super fresh proteins as well as all the toppings to make it exactly as you want. I’m definitely going back.“

“Stopped to eat here on my way home from hiking in Angeles National Forest. Best poke bowl I have had yet in California!!! So fresh and staff were so lovely. Great spot also to sit outside and eat. Will 💯 be my forever spot for poke after a long hike.“

“Awesome first experience! The traffic on Eastern had me turn into this food court. I've been to the green olive but decided for the Benton box at Poki N Roll. The tempura was lightly breaded and crispy. The portion of chicken and rice was very generous and I liked that the chop the chicken. Paola was very warm and welcoming. Thank you so much to the BOH and FOH for the great food and service. I'll be back to try other menu items.“

“One of the best Poke spots in the San Gabriel Valley (in my opinion).

Come a good day with the right servers and you’ll get your moneys worth. The portions are great, perfect ratio of protein to rice & sides.

Plenty of protein options and sauce options.“

“Super generous portions, friendly employees, and a tasty, customizable - what’s not to like? Stopped by here for a casual early dinner while in Old Town, and there was only one group ahead of ahead so ordering was quick. The medium size here could easily be a large at another place. The fish was fresh and I appreciated avocado being an included topping. There’s a good amount of indoor seating. Credit cards accepted. They have other options like Korean dishes if you’re not looking for poke. Self-service water.“

“This poke bar is outstanding! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with excellent customer service. The staff was incredibly patient and took the time to walk us through the menu, helping us navigate the variety of proteins and sides for our poke bowls. Every bite was a delight, from start to finish. I can't recommend it enough—it's delicious, healthy, and totally satisfying!“

“Nice and fast service!!! 😉“

“Was in the area and saw this poke spot was close. I stopped in and the food looked really fresh and there was plenty of people inside and it was only 11:30. I ordered the large with 5 scoops and it filled me up. If I’m back in the area I will definitely have to stop and eat again“

“I came here during a week day, I accidentally dropped my home lunch 😅 so I walked it to this place nearby the job. The cashier girl was polite, I ordered a spam musubi and Katsu bowl. I was surprised at how cheap it was for a Hawaiian food place and the food was delicious. I loved how the katsu chicken was crispy and well cooked. I’d definitely come back.“

“I was visiting with my Mom the other day, and we were looking for a place to get a quick bite to eat. I am very glad we stopped here! They have a lot of choices, and we both ordered the mixed Hawaiian BBQ meals. It arrived in a disposable container, and it was full to the brim with meat, rice, macaroni salad, and vegetables. So delicious, and enough for both of us to take home for dinner. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are very generous, and most of all, delicious!“

“I’ve been looking for a poke place and happened to find this little place. Went there once and the gentleman was very nice and helpful in the selection. My husband and I tried it at home and it was spectacular! Came back today and they were so generous in the quantity. I could say the best poke place I’ve eaten! If only I could afford eating at this place everyday, I would!“

“Good food good service good portions“

“Very Delicious! I will definitely eat there again 🤤“

“My experience with the Pokeball was great the only thing that was missing was Ginger for my salad I didn't ask for any but I would have assumed that they would give me at least one to two small packages to go.

Service West okay did they didn't acknowledge me as soon as I got in but it looked like they were a bit busy my visit was about 15 minutes and I took my food to go.

Overall the young lady that was helping me was very kind and attentive.“

“I've been coming here for years to get my Hawaiian food fix.

All the dishes are yummy, but my favorites are the beef plate (comes with beef, rice, and Mac salad) and the masubi.

Service was quick. Waited about 10-15 min for fresh food made to order so it's not lying around in food warmers.

I didn't eat here because I usually take my food to go, but the dining area is pretty spacious with lots of seating.“

“These people are so nice and have been doing this for so long. They know how to make good food. They gave me so much I couldn’t even finish it haha!

The price for one plate made 2 meals that I had to take the rest home. Affordable, sweet people, and good food. What more could you ask for. I highly recommend and will be back :)“

“I’ve been to other Ohana’s it’s always been a good meal, this place isn’t any different.I just had 4 spam musubi’s and 2 chicken musubi’s. All were delicious and filling for the lunch hour. I weil suggest “easy rice” for less rice and the chicken/spam were cooked/sauced perfectly.I’d definitely come back and try their other menu items.“

“BOMB BOMB BOMBBBB!!! I clocked out of my shift and had no second thoughts to come right here! I always get the Hawaiian mix best of the best plate, assorted with short rib, teriyaki chicken, and teriyaki beef! Of course with 2 Macs. Really recommend!“

“I rarely write reviews unless the experience was really bad or really good… This place is probably my favorite poke spot around now. Definitely coming here for my poke even though I live 20 mins away. Very nice people and generous. That’s how you get the people to come back. Thai tea was the best I’ve had (and I drink a lot of Thai tea). ?“

“I have a gluten allergy & they misheard my order, but the fixed it with a smile! They also clean the “ordering area” after each patron & tried to give me a refund for the amount of the dish I ordered! Their fried fish and shrimp plate looked amazing, but I just couldn’t eat it. It was kinda sad. This place was great & made fresh to order!!“

“Love their teriyaki burger on lettuce wrap. Delicious!“

“I wanted to try this place for the longest time. The No. 44 filled me up, as well as satisfied my taste buds.“

“What can I say, the food there is excellent. All the plates are affordable and you get a lot of food (tastes so yummy). The staff are polite, and respectful and the chefs are excellent. If you want some delicious Chinese Food or Hawaiian Grill, I highly recommend this establishment to everybody.“

“This place has the most delicious food ive ever eaten. Im being real. I don't even live nearby but I get this as often as I can just so I can eat the chicken taquitos. If I was on death row my last meal request would be the taquitos. I dream about them. Im being serious. Go here. Get taquitos. And then think to yourself wow I wish I had gotten these taquitos earlier in my life, how much taquito-ing have I missed out on by not getting these more often!??!! Also the workers are really nice and it's a small business and you already know about supporting small businesses. Forreal.“

“one of the best meals I ever had.forget about steak , chicken is delicious!!“

“Me and my wife moved to La Habra over 9 years ago and we found Hi barbecue shortly after we moved there it is our favorite place to get chicken teriyaki with vegetables the best we've ever had the staff is kind and friendly and they always make sure your order is “

“I love that they give a lot of free stuff. I call this the one stop shop because we ate, talked and played games. They actually have pretty good games there. I brought 4 friends now and they all loved it! Maybe I should get a commission, hee hee!“

“While searching for Pho, we discovered this place in Alhambra the food is just delicious cooked at the time of order. all ingredients were very good and savory in every plate. Two thumbs up.
if you are searching for a healthy place to eat this is your place to be . 👍🏼“

“I ordered a medium for $14.95 and the presentation was beautiful a good rectangular shape allowed all the flavors to stand out perfectly. On Sundays I got lucky there was $5 Sushi containers available for sale so we also got a special dinner“

“This place is very delicious. I received the Lemon Pepper Tilapia. Prices are very reasonable. Customer Service was great! The only thing I disliked was the Sriracha provided. They had the original roster Sriracha on display but we were given the cheap Vinagre knock off.I will definitely be returning and becoming a regular.“

“The food is delicious �“

“I was very good..love the services..can't wait to go again.“

“The young woman behind the counter was so sweet! I was welcomed instantly with a warm
smile as soon as I opened the door. My order was quickly prepared while also fresh, I am
highly impressed and will definitely be back to visit.“

“If you plan on wanting to eat at home, definitely order ahead..Wait for Pupusas is usually about 20 minutes. The people there are very nice, they have reasonable prices, and I feel like they are consistent with the quality of their food( at least for the last 5 years that I've been going).. my go tos are usually Pupusas de queso con jalapeño and bean and cheese, oh and the loroco ones. Plus an order of yucca frita with chicharron.“

“Clean, Neat, Great community and work ethic“

“White rice with spicy tuna and hamachi with volcano sauce topped with edamame, cucumber, seaweed salad, crabmeat, and avocado. Perfection. :)“

“my 1st visit. i will return for more!“

“I have gone there twice now & both times the staff was very friendly. The food has been & tasted very fresh! I look forward to going back again soon! � Thank you & keep up the good work!“
