My first time having iLava and it was AMAZING! From the ambiance, to the service, to the food itself, all 10/10, would recommend to anyone. They let you customize your combo order, so I had to try their chicken katsu as well as their lau lau, which both exceeded my expectations. And I saved the yummy Mac salad for the end! 😋 to top it off their smoothies are great too. I got the Hawaiian sunset. Come try their food!!

Hawaiian Barbecue is hard to compare to what's found on the islands, but wow, did iLava Hawaiian Barbecue blow me away. Food was ready for pickup and still hot! We did the family meal:
-Galbi short ribs: flavorful with good char, meaty and good rendered fat
-Kalua pork: juicy, smoky and not overly salty
-Teriyaki chicken: also juicy and hella flavorful
-Mac Salad: creamy and well balanced
-Crab Ragoon: has good ratio of crab to cream cheese
-Garlic Shrimp Plate: brought me back to the North Shore of Oahu with that Kahuku flavor
DEF RECOMMENDED! FLAVORS AND PORTIONS ARE WORTH IT

That was a pleasant surprise! Passing through town and selected this place on its rating and name and wow! The wife had the teriyaki chicken and decided not to add any sauce....it was that good! I had the BBQ beef and, yep, happy food coma time! They each came with rice, steamed veggies and mac salad. My wife said she wants to come here for her birthday and, if we lived anywhere near here, we'd more than make that happen! Thanks for the good eats!!
