Hawaiian Restaurants near Milpitas, CA

“Only 2 items were vegetarian. We order bothThe most I liked was vegetarian ramen (replacement of vegetables are not an option). 2nd item was vegetable tempura and for me was a bit oily. But I’ll definitely go there one more time for their Ramen.

Vegetarian options: 1. vegetarian ramen (replacement of vegetables are not an option).2. vegetable tempura (little oily)“

“First of all, let me say that the service was kind and friendly. I went with my daughter, who the employees engaged with in a sweet manner from entrance to exit. It helped that we were the only customers, but for the employees to be so engaged at a slow time says something about the establishment. Now, the location is old and not the cleanest. But L&L has always been more of a grab n' go place. For the 20+ years I've been to these restaurants, from Southern to Northern California, I've rarely seen people eat in them. None of them have been very clean. We come for the generous portions, macaroni salad and luau luau pork they cook upon order.“

“Fresh poke bowl made as you order.“

“Woteva they have dat’s onolicious!!!!!“

“Wasn't crowded and the food was delicious ?.

Parking: Sometimes it's hard to find parking. There are a few businesses close by.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a couple of handicap parking in front of the restaurant.“

“I ordered their Loco Moco combo where you could choose two meats - I chose loco moco and grilled chicken. It came with rice, gravy, and macaroni salad on the side. My boyfriend ordered the chicken katsu and we shared a Spam musubi. The prices were reasonable and the portion of food was huge, it left us feeling full and satisfied. I liked the decor of the restaurant and the food was quick to arrive. When I asked the waitress questions about some food on the menu, though, she looked unsure.

Parking: You will need to pay for street parking.“

“Overall the portion sizes & food was amazing! The loco moco & gravy was delicious, heavy plate too! & the garlic shrimp was so delicious. Definitely a step up from L&L and don't miss out on the Hawaiian Donuts!?❤️?
Plus they hooked me up with free gravy!?
Great visit??
I'll post some pics of what I got!(:“

“Island vibes and scrumptious Hawaiian kind food. I walked in on a gamble since it’s hard to find a good Hawaiian BBQ place. This place is about premium products and it shows in their food. Seafood is hard to fake, their Seafood platter was on point. Crunchy but moist ! I’ll be back to try it all.“

“?CHICKEN ADOBO OMELETTE $17If you like sour food you might like this very typical Filipino dish! Vinegar cooked omelette rice!When it was served, it was really fragrant and appetizing!But I personally don’t like vinegar very much, so the taste doesn’t quite suit me.?DA SITUATION $13I like this very much! It’s a dish that’s perfect for brunchI like the crispy texture added by the tots inside~You can choose the meat according to your preference. We chose Lechon roast suckling pig.?SPICY GARLIC SHRIMP $19Seeing this makes me miss the food trucks in Hawaii.Their seasoning is good and the garlic flavor is less intense compared to the Hawaiian food truck.The problem is that as someone who grew up by the seaI think its shrimps are not very fresh (the meat is not firm but soft)“

“The Monterey Rd restaurant is kuddos 5stars. The restaurant is always clean, the service is great the delivery is quick and OMG the food is impeccable good. I have referral numerous family members and friends to this one restaurant. I fell in love 3 12 yes ago and now I'm a regular. the food is clean, healthy and very tasty.“

“Some of the BEST poke I've had in the Bay Area! Fresh and soft fish, HUGE portions, lots of free add-ins that would be costly elsewhere. I have a gluten allergy and the cashier was extremely helpful in helping me find options. Will be coming again and again!

Dietary restrictions: Sauces have gluten (soy sauce) but dressings do not“

“I'm not very critical of the food service industry. We all essentially are trying to do the same thing.

If you love short ribs and spam musubi, you won't be disappointed with this place. Facilities are clean, and the staff conduct business very well. They even have a TV going if you decide to dine in.

Parking: Standard parking lot you would find at any shopping plaza“

“Their spicy dropper is weak. Calling it spicy idk about that. They need to make it more spicy or else I won’t be coming back. Still giving it a 5 stars cuz them fish was fresh and the poke bowl is tasty!“

“This junk food junkie loved my first ever bowl. And it was vegan and gluten free so I can't even believe how awesome it was. I ordered the pineapple teriyaki cauliflower bowl with no bell peppers and added mushrooms instead and absolutely everything was delicious! I ordered it served with the sesame scallion rice and I can't even believe how much I loved that rice!It was a really big portion and totally filled me up. I couldn't even finish the sweet potato salad, which was also really good. I thought I would be hungry because there was no meat in my meal but nope. Totally happy and ready for a nap. Wish my boss would let me take one LOL!I found them through GrubHub and the meal arrived nice and warm. I will definitely be ordering Lulu bowls again!“

“L&L Hawaiian Barbecue is a great spot for a quick and satisfying meal. It feels like a Hawaiian-style fast food restaurant, but the quality and consistency of the food stand out. The service is always fast, and the food is freshly made, including their barbecue, which is cooked to order.

We always order to go, but there are a few tables available for a sit-down meal. However, this place is more about convenience and quick bites than a fancy dining experience. One of the best parts is the customization options—you can substitute sides like rice and macaroni salad with steamed vegetables or even mix and match.

The portions are generous, and there’s a wide variety of options to choose from. The prices are very reasonable, making it a go-to spot for a quick and delicious takeout meal. It’s also a great alternative to burgers and fries or other fast food meals, offering a healthier option without sacrificing flavor.“

“great food and friendly people“

“Food was great! But I wouldn't choose this place to dine in. You are much better off getting take out or delivery. I am a traveler and was craving a sushirrito with hot cheetos, this place definitely hit the spot! But since I am just passing through, this place was not ideal as their restroom is marked "for employees only" and when I asked to use it they said no, so I also couldn't wash my hands after I finished my yummy, but messy burrito. The tables are also set up in a way to discourage dining in, I am guessing these policies are left over from the covid scare. We went at peak lunch hours and there wasn't really any customers besides a few delivery orders. Staff was very friendly and the place was clean! I would rate the food and the staff 5/5, but took a star off for the dining in part.

Parking: Parking was difficult, spots in the plaza fill in fast.“

“The food is delicious... the portions are big. For me, I have to share, I can't finish it alone. The BBQ meat is big... plus rice and macaroni or salad. The chicken katsu is also delicious...I'm satisfied here. The place is not too big but there is space for eating inside.“

“First time customer and everything was so fresh Anna tasty. I completely loved it🍲and would recommend. thank u“

“I got a Doordash delivery from here and was pleasantly surprised! Passed by this poke stand in the grassy area of Santana Row, but never thought of buying a bowl until now.

The Large Poke Bowl + Miso Soup were very generously portioned! They did not skimp on the amount of fish. The scallops were especially fresh and good quality. The amount of greens and rice was great. Definitely a solid spot for some poke.“

“I decided to get some poke, and this spot is close by, so some friends and I go. The shop is small with barely any seating, but there are 4 tables outside.

The fish was fresh, and the number of choices for toppings was great. The process to build the bowl is fast, and the service was kind. They even gave me a bit extra on one of my toppings without charging me.

All in all it was a large portion for the large bowl with 4 different proteins and lots of toppings. The refresher drinks are also really delicious.“

“A good seafood joint/eatery in North San Jose. A lot of options are available here. The seating area, although indoors, is big enough for a fair number of people. A few tables are available. The service is speedy, and the staff are friendly. Parking is available in the nearby parking lot. Recommended.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are available, but not recommended.

Parking: Free parking lot nearby.“

“I had the poke bowl � and put quite a bit of everything but avocado � in it.... the fish and selections were very fresh.“

“Great lemon pepper chicken.. very friendly staff !“

“This is the best tasting and best value Hawaiian BBQ around! They actually season the food so many NorCal folk may find it too flavorful. This has become one of my go-to spots after a long day at work under toxic Asian management. Being able to binge eat myself into a comatose state for cheap has brought me great comfort in this economy.“

“My husband performed here and I enjoyed the place so much. It's a cool atmosphere to hang out in and can't wait til I'm back in San Jose to visit again.“

“Very tasty food & it’s always fresh😋👌🏼“

“The musubi trio is spam, chicken katsu, and BBQ chicken. If you're a fan of all three, it saves you $.40. Otherwise, just get the musubi you want instead.I will say this jawn slaps. It's no very shareable, the musubi, as cutting in destroys the structural integrity of the wrap, but yeah go for this one mate. The BBQ sauce is good. Definitely something you can be without but it does add a layer.Great service here as well. Would go again.“

Super nice and helpful, easy to grab, refilled waters

Ambiance: 3.75/5
Skibidi toilet rizz was playing cuz the owners kid was here. Classic Chinese restaurant. But otherwise, there were some interesting collections on the walls. Giving underground restaurant vibes, but not quite


Meat was juicyyyyy and love the enoki mushrooms. Some of the other skewers like the asparagus and 土豆丝 could use some more seasoning though.

Wow: 0.25/1
