Food was good, not to dream about it. I didn't feel the Hawaiian vibe.

It is a very awesome Hawaiian bbq place. Ample of tables and a lot of parking. The food portioning is awesome... It really fills you up.
The people on the place are very friendly also.
When you get a Chance try them out. You won't be disappointed....

This place makes it super difficult to actually go and eat there. They close randomly and will ignore customers outside their store. I witnessed my wife trying to get their attention by knocking on their window and I saw her get continuously ignored so if this is how they treat their customers then I want no part of this at all, food is decent quality the best and I hope that their staff becomes friendlier and much more aware

So I first started eating Matiki at there original location in Anaheim, I immediately fell in love with it! Outstanding food and the customer service was like you were a part of the family! So fast forward many years later they open the Fullerton location (a lot! Closer to me) well fortunately the food is still outstanding but the customer service is definitely not outstanding. I was reading some other reviews from people that just gave them 1 star and even though they do have some points correct, the lady that takes your order (the one in the picture that someone posted) she is not friendly at all, I’ve never seen a smile! That being said they definitely deserve more than 1 star. Working in food service I can say, sometimes it’s very hard to smile, dealing with people for 8 hours a day! It’s a little rough, especially when you have those customers that really make you second guess why you do what you do! And also, we don’t know what’s happening in her life… And yes we shouldn’t bring out personal life to work but that’s easier said than done! So next time you see this woman, killer with kindness, be sure to look at her and say “Thank you! I hope you have a wonderful day” it just may be what she needed to hear

That smell before you even walk in tells you everything. And it tastes better than the smell before you walk in.

Been coming to Matikis for over 15 years, only the Anaheim location though. Today i visited the Fullerton location for the first time and had quite possibly one of the most unpleasant experiences I have ever had at a restaurant, with the woman working up at the front. She has the most horrible attitude ever and behaves extremely rude and nasty. Her sour attitude makes me never want to return to the Fullerton location and I nearly escalated the situation after her passive aggressive attitude towards me and other customers did not change. She showed no remorse when I confronted her about her horrible service and told me to get out of the store. As i was walking out some young guy that worked in the kitchen began to attempt to intimidate me by walking right up to my face and trying to scare me into walking faster. He’s lucky he didn’t escalate the situation himself because his size was not intimidating at all, and he would have found out the hard way not to judge a book by its cover. I took photos of both employees. There was a 3rd man working in the kitchen and he remained quiet and peaceful, I commend him for his professionalism.

Best Hawaiian BBQ I've ever eaten. If you're ever in the area, you have to stop and get some beef back ribs and Mac salad. A+ Restaurant!
I absolutely love this place! The food is delicious, the portions are large and the staff is super friendly! I will definitely be coming back many more times. Shoutout to all the wonderful people that work there!
(The Mac salad is my favorite ♥️)
good place to get Hawaiian BBQ ,
We ate here twice during our vacation. Love the food and the cleanliness of the restaurant. Great vibes and tasty food!
