Hawaiian Restaurants near La Puente, CA

“Best poke place in the area! Service is quick, staff is always friendly, the food is good and prices are reasonable.

Along with the flavor, another one of my favorite things about this place is they are not skimpy. I usually get a large and can spread it out over two days because it is so filling. The fish scoops are packed and they hook it up with the toppings and sauces.“

“The food is an upgrade from Ono Hawaiian BBQ. Treat yourself American! Shootz!“

“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“

“Great experience. I received some food from a friend and was told about how nice the employees were from Zach, Crystal, and Ken.

I heard about how there was a company loyalty program and the food itself was 44g of protein. Will stop by here again! 👍“

“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.“

“I went to Aloha Stacks for breakfast on July 3rd. When I got there the line was out the door, but it moved pretty quickly. We ordered and got a table very easily. The food came very quickly and the wait staff was very attentive, checking to see if we needed anything several times. I had the chicken katsu and waffles and my companion had strawberry crepes and a side of kalua pork. All were delicious. It was very busy but they didn't rush us out. Parking is difficult...I parked on the street nearby.“

“For someone who adores beef, their beef bowl is da bomb, big and juicy just the way I like it. My boyfriend also had the big bros house special and I honestly don’t know which is best cause the sauce is heavenly.“

“Had a fantastic experience at Aloha Stacks! The Hawaiian-inspired food was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The Loco Moco and Ube Coconut Pancakes were especially delicious, and everything had a satisfying homemade feel. The staff were friendly and attentive, and the relaxed atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable. A great spot in El Monte for a hearty breakfast or Hawaiian-style comfort food—definitely worth coming back!“

“This spot is so much better than Jimmy's in Diamond Bar Blvd which I also tried recently. I paid $14 per bowl (three large scoops of protein, with additional $1.50 for avocado) here and got more and better quality food than I received at Jimmy's for over $17 (without avocado, two small scoops of protein).

The amount of food you get, the freshness of the fish and the ingredients - all excellent. This is one of the better poke I've had in this area and I will definitely be coming back.“

“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!“

“We randomly stumbled upon this poke restaurant and it quickly became one of our favorites! The fish was incredibly fresh. The ahi and salmon was very high quality. I enjoyed how customizable the bowls were and how the sauces had the perfect amount of flavor and spices!

Portions were generous and the toppings were fantastic!

Staff was friendly! They provided helpful recommendations.

I will definitely be back at this hidden gem.

Highly recommended!“

“I love it 1st time trying it .so fresh and healthy! ❤️“

“First time ordering Poki bowl so I wasn’t sure what to expect. There is a build your own bowl menu card that you fill out. I had some questions and the chef was very helpful, he answered all my questions and I asked for some suggestions, he was spot on. I also ordered a cooked salmon dish. He was very friendly very helpful and the food was DELICIOUS ! And so very yummy! 😋 I will be back“

“Update: This has become one of my 2 spots that I go to for AUTHENTIC Hawaiian food. Everything here is delicious. You can watch the chefs grill your meal on an open flame. If you haven't been here, you haven't tasted real Hawaiian BBQ. Warning: the spam musubis sell out, so get there early for a chance to get one. If they sell out, I don't need to tell you how good they are.

OMG. I was recommended to try this place and they were not lying. I didn't take pictures, I was too excited to eat. I could smell the bbq before I walked in. I got the Big Kahuna family meal, its a very generous portion. I also got the beef ribs, those are a must. The only thing I didn't get to try was the spam masubi, but I'll definitely be back.“

“Plate lunches here are just as delicious as on the Hawaiian Islands. First, the garlic butter shrimp...I will dream about it. Second, the bbq chicken was tender and oh-so flavorful on its own; no need for the dipping sauce although the sauce IS super tasty. Next, the rice is topped with furikake and sesame seeds. Sadly, the spicy pork flavor is excellent, but I don't like how it's in small pieces. I referred to it as shrapnel pieces, and my BF thought that was a precise phrase for it. We were disappointed that the gochujang wings were not available on a weekend night at 6:30pm. This a food court location, so if you want to eat hot & fresh, you need to find a table two stalls down in a small inside area with about 6 tables or outside with about the same amount of tables.“

“First time at Ono. Good food and good service. I will return.“

“Delicious bbq Hawaiian style chicken with rice and macaroni salad 😋“

“Great food & prices! Huge portions. We enjoyed the chicken katsu & Hawaiian BBQ chicken & beef, spam musubi, and curry chicken. The curry was truly outstanding - we dipped everything in it haha! They also have boba & Thai iced tea.“

“Located in a large strip mall, so lots of free parking. They’re tucked away in the corner. Not a lot of tables, but very clean. The food was great and the serving sizes were larger than I anticipated. I’d definitely choose this place over L&L. They have a big food menu and drink menu. I look forward to coming back.“

“Always mine and my family's favorite poke place! Although Jimmy's Poke across from the Walmart is a lot closer to us, Mr. Poke is just top notch, may I say the GOAT. Jimmy's doesn't compete with Mr. Poke's freshness, portions, and atmosphere; Jimmy's is way too expensive for just 2 bowls of poke, and has gone downhill ever since they opened. Jimmy's menu was inconsistent and had quite a few stuff out of stock last time I was there in 2025. However, Mr. Poke has really stepped up with newer decor, quality consistency, and even adding on a stamping system for rewards that'll make us loyal customers come back for more.

Although not fully packed, their patrons sure have increased compared to the first time I tried them in 2020, where there was practically no line and only 1 employee. Not a long wait, but it can get a small line even on the weekdays, so it'll depend. But it's always clean and quiet with a few tables and seats. In addition, they added another employee to the line when I visited today 6 years later, demonstrating how they've grown in reputation.

Ultimately, I'm glad to see a small business growing and getting the recognition it deserves, so I highly recommend them to keep it up! 👏“

“Best poke ever!!!“

“Located right next to Cal Poly college, Jinza Teriyaki is a great spot to eat after classes, my all time favorite is the Loco Moco bowl. The people are incredibly nice and especially early the place is a nice quite area to eat in. My only wish is that they would open earlier as someone who's out n about by 7am, but I understand not wanting to open at the crack of dawn.“

“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.“

“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!“

“I am from out of town i am here visiting my sister in the hospital. I was looking for a good teryaki plate for my wife and I. I read reviews and I decided to try hi bbq. The customer service was great,the price was good and the food was excellent. The ginger dressing was tangy and really good for the salad. The chicken and steak was flavorful and the macaroni salad was really good. Until my sister comes home this will be the place we will go to. If you are looking for really good food at a good price I highly recommend hi bbq. Also the staff was really nice and the place is very comfortable.“

“Nice and fast service!!! 😉“

“The best quarantine comfort food! Love this place! 😋“

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

“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.“

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

“Love this place, fresh food and island drinks so glad it's come to Az.“

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

“Had the garlic noodles with added BBQ chicken and their Thursday BBQ chicken plate special. The garlic noodles were pretty good and the BBQ chicken is genuinely some of the best tasting Hawaiian BBQ chicken I've ever had but the portions are pretty small for what they cost.

Friendly staff, very lovely decor. Might consider coming back if I ever stop being broke.“

“This is not one of those places where they pack your plate full of Chinese food if that’s what you’re
expecting they are a little stingy so they don’t do that here lol BUT the food is really good especially the Hawaiin bbq dishes 💚
✔️ go to lil spot for me none the less 🩷“

“Kevin and Eric are the proprietors and they deliver great poke dishes! Love the food. Love the atmosphere.“

“Alohaus Poke Bar isn’t your typical poke bar, they also offer other Hawaiian goodies. The food is delicious and the staff members are friendly and efficient. I highly recommend Alohaus and would gladly rate them 5 stars!“

“Friendly cool environment light Hawaiian music employees are friendly and helpful

I’m very picky about where I get my teriyaki.
My sister had brought me a bowl to try out.

I got the small bowl. Just the teriyaki chicken and rice. They give you a lot of chicken and big pieces too. They also have extra teriyaki sauce and hot sauce. Ohh and they have free fountain drinks between 2-4 pm. My order was to go. Love this spot.“

“Locomoco is bomb with gravy. Very good Hawaiian. My jam the Locomoco. The bomb fresh Hawaiian. Get the locomoco.“

“Service was beyond 5 stars, they were sweet helpful and fast.. I got a half salad, half rice poke bowl and it tasted fresh and delicious.“

“If you from Hawaii, born and raised like me, then you know you need da kine grindz thats like back home.

Let me do this in proper English now.
I had the chicken musubi..
and it stay ono! Ok. Hawaii talk coming out. Da buggah stay mean!

I also got the Hula Guava pie, and its like a giant poptart, but with guava in it. That's super ono too!

The food is like back home and I eat at a lot of restaurants back home in Hawaii, and ate in multiple restaurants in different countries, and the mainland.

So if you from Hawaii and try the food, you know you know.
This food is super ono!
I will be back.
Mahaloz! 🤙🏽🌺“

“Great customer service & delicious food💕“

“The food is delicious �“

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

“was good and tasty will go back again“

“I generally eat here a couple times a month. Food is good, bowls are a favorite in our house. And the macaroni salad slaps, I usually order a small side of it, which comes in a small deli sized container. To my surprise yesterday, I was given this (see photo), only a tiny sauce container full. I know shrinkflation is real, but really?!?! I'm hoping the employee made a mistake because paying $4 for 4 bites of macaroni salad is ridiculous.“

“Classic Hawaiian BBQ spot, serving the community for many years now, the food here is amazing, the best chicken katsu in my opinion, the food quality has been consistent over the years, they always give you more than you can eat so you will definitely have leftovers, I recommend ordering all mac and no rice, the mac salad here is amazing, sometimes I come here and just order the mac salad, can't go wrong, definitely worth every penny. Also, the food is cooked to order, dont be surprised if you wait 20 mins for your food, the wait is worth the quality 👌“

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