I was in a rush when ordering food online. Realized I ordered it from Mauna Loa and not Oha. Was really disappointed in the overall quality. Food was flavorless and their portion of short ribs was stingy. I got the combo with chicken katsu, I would say the quality and quantity was the only real positive thing about my meal.
I don’t typically like macaroni salad and will request to omit it or replace with rice, so I was happy to see that they offer a cabbage salad instead (although it wasn’t great).
Will definitely continue to go back to Oha in SR

Saimin was terrible. Raised on saimin so disappointing. A number of menu items non-local names: poki?? Kalua pork?? Lau lau always has pork in it unless you say otherwise.

Our visit to this Hawaiian restaurant was a dream come true! The service was outstanding from the get-go – our server was personable, efficient, and really helped us navigate the menu with great suggestions. We had the seared ahi tuna and a Hawaiian-style burger, and both dishes were packed with flavor and freshness. The ambiance was exactly what you’d expect from an island-inspired spot, with beautiful wood accents, lush plants, and a peaceful atmosphere that made us feel like we were on vacation. I’ll definitely be back for more of this authentic Hawaiian goodness!

Wow these guys are the real deal! Today I ordered chicken katsu with cabbage salad (instead of Mac). You can really see the care the chef puts into the food, so finely prepared, the rice was perfect, and the salad was fresh and so crisp. Mahalo!

Mauna Loa Hawaiian BBQ is a good spot for some Hawaiian BBQ. The service was decently quick, and the food was delicious. I ordered the Mauna Loa combination plate that came with beef short rib, chicken katsu, and BBQ chicken. All three meats were tender and tasty. They also have a wide selection of alcohol.

Great food. Excellent coconut shrimp, large portions, very good kalua pork. Quick, friendly service. Small, clean, casual place. Can be too warm on hot days. Good for take-out or eating in.
