Honu Hawaiian BBQ

The food was excellent! The portions are generous. I ordered the ribs and they were incredibly tender. My husband chose the chicken katsu and it was delicious!

Hawaiian Beef Rib is awesome; large portions and the meat just falls off the bone.

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.

I'm pleasantly surprised by this place! They had very generous portions, especially the gochujang chicken. So much so that we have leftovers for dinner. The flavors were great, and the food was prepared well! It got my grandpa's stamp of approval.

I have came here two times and will definitely be back for a third. The first time I brought a friend and then the second time we brought another friend. Both of them loved it! I’m not sure why people are complaining about the wait the lady is nice enough to let everyone know that the food is MADE TO ORDER meaning they cook it AFTER you order. I believe it’s worth it and very delicious because it comes out at the perfect temperature. We have an hour lunch and it’s only ever taken 15-20 minutes max and that is on a Friday for lunch.

My favorite would be the short rib and second would be the garlic shrimp. It is very filling and the portions are big as you can see in the photo.

I can say this is a hidden little gem in the corner of this shopping center. If you are debating, TRY IT you will not regret it.

Not enough bang for your buck. The portions are not for a hungry adult. If you come here on an empty stomach be prepared to go eat something else in about an hour after. It's like wedding reception portions. The least you could do is scoop some more mac salad on there.

What a great addition to this neighborhood! Food is delicious and fresh and can really tell they use high quality ingredients. Service is awesome here. People are saying it’s pricey but you actually get a lot of food for the what you’re paying. 10/10 recommend!

I was excited to try this place for the first time.
Sadly, it didn't meet my expectations.
Rice was mushy.
The ribs were on the sweet side.
And I must say that this place is pricey.

We went to the business on a weekend and ordered the beef ribs and the masubi. The ribs tasted really good. You get 3 ribs, rice, and macaroni salad. The masubi had a slim piece of spam and overstuffed with rice. The ribs were fatty and barely had meat on it. This is a fast food place, which I knew, but is priced at a premium. It took a long time for the order to be ready and we sat at a food court area of the business plaza. It was hot inside and the tables were dirty. I asked one of the staff of the food court area if there was anyway to clean the tables, he gave me a cocktail napkin for me to clean myself. Very Unsatisfactory. When our food was ready, I asked for some water and she gave me a very small cup of warm water, no ice in it. I’m not a person that demands anything, I want to see how businesses treat their guests and I can share to others. Keep in mind, it is very hot outside, Very Inexcusable for a business to welcome guests to clean their own table, give warm water on a hot day and have them sit down in a warm dining area. If paying for premium price for food, you should be treated well. Disappointed time and will not go there again.

Visited Honu Hawaiian Barbecue for the first time on a weekday and decided to try the beef rib and garlic butter shrimp. The food was not bad—flavors were decent, and the portions were generous. However, we ended up waiting for 40 minutes, which was quite disappointing. If the wait time is this long on a weekday, I can’t imagine how it would be on a weekend. Overall, while the food was satisfactory, the lengthy wait makes it hard to justify a return visit.
