Hawaiian Restaurants in San Diego, CA

“Never ate Poke before coming to this place. Ended up having it 5 days in a row while I stayed in PB for a week because it was so good.

Food is so fresh and healthy. Great service, Tito and the rest of the team are awesome. Very clean.

Highly recommend the spicy garlic or 51/50 signature bowls. Mango lemonade is also fire.“

“Love coming to this local shop in Ocean Beach. My favorite is their Furikake Salmon along with some rice. Hits the spot every time!

There's no tables inside but my group always goes to Ocean Beach to take in the views and eat. A must try for the area.“

“Located near the sdsu campus, this location is accessible to students and community members alike. The food was fresh and the katsu had a delectable crutch that left a good taste in my mouth. The cashier was a kind soul that made our L & L experience one that we’ll never forget.“

“Love the Huli Huli and the spicy Poke Bowl oh so ono. The Haupia is a out of this world too. Just perfect and delish.“

“Food 😋Service and location absolutely wonderful!“

“Great food! The only thing negative for us are the seating. It’s always crowded every time and there’s no restroom😔.“

“Best L&L is all of San Diego. The food is excellent and they have more options than all the other ones. Plenty of seating inside, tables are clean, great value too.

There is plenty of parking, its very family-friendly. Best suits medium parties or smaller. Indoor and outdoor seating. Easy to find parking, but it still gets busy.“

“Delicious Sunday brunch after a long walk on Ocean dog beach (dog breakfast too!)“

“I stopped by today and had an excellent experience. The food was great, the place was clean, and the atmosphere was nice.
But the highlight was the service from the cashier. She greeted me with a genuine smile, was incredibly kind, and provided the kind of customer service that really stands out. It’s refreshing to walk into a place and be treated with such respect and positive energy.

Great job to the team for having such professional staff. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Amazing food! Delicious every single time!“

“Love this place. I had the Big Brudda combination. It was delicious and I'm taking leftovers home. They have a great beer selection, Kona Big Wave is wonderful with this meal. The atmosphere takes me to Hawaii while we're here. Highly recommend!“

“Love the Huli Huli and the spicy Poke Bowl oh so ono. The Haupia is a out of this world too. Just perfect and delish.“

“I love L&L and frequent different locations often. The Palm Ave location just cannot seem to get an entire order correct and it’s frustrating because I know the service expectation of the brand. Give them some guidance on preparing multiple meals correctly for a single order.
Favorite location is still MCAS Miramar! Their team is 5 gold stars! See y’all soon!“

“Overall, this La Mesa location it’s not too bad. It’s pretty good. The barbecue beef again. This is a college area and yet this one in La Mesa beats the one located in La Jolla so something‘s going on over in the expensive area where they’re cheating the value or the quality where you have El Cajon and now here in La Mesa much better quality service is pretty good in the atmosphere. It’s it’s giving me that Hawaiian vibe a little bit so watch out expensive living areas you gotta pick up your game and stop being cheap.“

“Fish District is much better than the Rubios and Fish Grill that are nearby. Their food is fresh, delicious, and healthy.

The cashier/server Paige provided excellent recommendations and outstanding customer service.

Will definitely return!“

“Small place but great food if you like the Hawaiian vibe. The Katsu's are tasty and super crispy! Reminds me of places I've been in Hawaii and Japan. They have some fun selections for beverages and dessert. It can get crazy busy but worth the wait.“

“Awesome people, served delecious barbecues, love it.... I highly recommended. Lol“

“Food was delicious and tasted fresh. Wish it came in a larger portion. I got two scoops (1 salmon and 1 tofu). Service was friendly and place was clean. I would come here again. Bathrooms could have been cleaner.

Plenty of seating available.“

“Absolutely delicious. Best Hawiian food I’ve had since being on Hawaii, 10/10. My new go-to! Good job guys!! I got the Seafood combo platter delivered, the Kalbi (short ribs) was seasoned to perfection, shrimp was fried perfectly, and the fish katsu was also seasoned perfectly, and had a nice crunch to the crust. You can really tell they put love into the food. Mac salad was very good, just added a pinch of black pepper (personal preference). Mahalo!“

“Everyone in our house used to like poke. After we found Poke Chop, we LOVE poke! They have so many options of fish and sauces and toppings. I’ve never found as big of a selection. My daughter would eat here every day if I’d let her. There aren’t many places in Hillcrest where a family of 3 can get dinner for around $30, and be totally stuffed, and not feel blah afterwards. The fish is always really fresh. The only thing that could make it better is if they added mango, mmmmm. We try to eat there as much as possible because it will be a very sad day if they close. (It’s a reality in the Hillcrest restaurant business ☹️).“

“Loved this place! The food was great. The service was amazing. The owners are super friendly.“

“Food is great, they have great quality poke.

Couple of notes: the staff today was rude, just not friendly overall 😞 very disappointing

There's still no indoor seating and the place is still set up for Covid. So plan to eat outside if you come here.“
