Hawaiian Restaurants near South Pasadena, CA

“The Canoe House has great food, a creative menu, and a fun, tropical-themed atmosphere. We enjoy having lunch or dinner here with friends and family. They also have a good-sized meeting room if you have a group.“

“This place has the BEST spicy pork I have ever tasted!!!!“

“My experience with the Pokeball was great the only thing that was missing was Ginger for my salad I didn't ask for any but I would have assumed that they would give me at least one to two small packages to go.

Service West okay did they didn't acknowledge me as soon as I got in but it looked like they were a bit busy my visit was about 15 minutes and I took my food to go.

Overall the young lady that was helping me was very kind and attentive.“

“First time visiting Ono. Food was OUTSTANDING!! Chicken and beef platter and a mixed fish plate. Will be back!“

“Good food big portions. Fast service.“

“The food is an upgrade from Ono Hawaiian BBQ. Treat yourself American! Shootz!“

“Love the place 👍👍👍🙏😍 Feel like I’m in Hi“

“Went today because we’d heard this place has amazing food. There’s a reason they’re called “Top Restaurant.” Not only is the food delicious and fresh, but the people we met there were so kind and welcoming. Must-try spot if you’re in Pasadena!“

“My husband and I tried the poke bowls and were absolutely blown away. Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. A huge plus is that you can mix and customize your bowl exactly the way you want. As a chef, I truly appreciate this level of quality and attention to detail. We highly recommend this place and will definitely be coming back again!“

“mac salad! nice n firm, but not too hard w pieces of potatoes“

“The food was authentic Hawaiian and delicious!😋 The Char Siu pork and fried rice was so tasty and my husband loved the Komai breakfast too! 👍 Even with Covid restrictions, the staff were very friendly and efficient! 💙“

“WOW! Amazing little shop with even more AMAZING food! Had the Superman Burrito and Old Pa Musubi and both were out of this world. Super fresh and so tasty. This is my first time trying this place and it blew me away. I will be coming back with out a doubt. Keep up the great work Straycat team!“

“So tasty, fresh, clean and healthy as one would desire from Poké. Gourmet selection of super fresh proteins as well as all the toppings to make it exactly as you want. I’m definitely going back.“

“This place is amazing! Only place I will ever go to get Poke! The food is always fresh, staff is nice and the prices you can't beat!!“

“Aloha Stacks is a popular Hawaiian-style breakfast and brunch spot known for its large pancakes and spam masubi. It's a family-owned chain located in a tiny plaza at 10300 Lower Azusa Rd in El Monte.

We came very early morning to grab some breakfast. Customers will
need to order on the counter before seating down. Dinning area is neat, spacious with a relaxing atmosphere. We ordered drip coffee, OJ, Avocado omelette and Blueberry Pancakes. Coffee was mediocre in taste except for the fresh juice. Foods were great and tasty. Service was spot on. Staff were assiduous and professional. Prices are competitive. Parking was easy. Overall, I enjoyed an early breakfast.“

“This is a very clean location the workers are kind, great customer service, great food. Love this place.

Parking: Lots of parking

Kid-friendliness: They got high chairs I believe and coloring pages for kids.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have tables for the disabled.“

“Awesome first experience! The traffic on Eastern had me turn into this food court. I've been to the green olive but decided for the Benton box at Poki N Roll. The tempura was lightly breaded and crispy. The portion of chicken and rice was very generous and I liked that the chop the chicken. Paola was very warm and welcoming. Thank you so much to the BOH and FOH for the great food and service. I'll be back to try other menu items.“

“Fish was fresh and flavors were great. Love that they separate the warm rice from the cold poke when you get it to go. The only thing I’d say is beware if you add cucumber: my poke container had a lot of liquid at the bottom from the cucumber salad, which created a bit of an unpleasant texture to the rest of the ingredients that were also at the bottom of the container. But overall, I really enjoyed it!“

“never been disappointed� food and service are pretty much excellent�“

“Well, to be honest I went to pick up a meal for someone. I tried so hard to find the building but could not. I drove around a lot, then I notice a food vehicle. I saw the name of the company I was told to go to, so I jumped out and ran over to a man close to it, and he notified me that the food service vehicle he was in was where I was to pick up the food I was there to pick up for their customer. He was so very, very helpful to me that I was thankful to have stopped at the right place. I must say that the person I told I would pick it up for loved and enjoyed the food a lot. So, now I know where to go, and I am always very impressed with excellent customer service, which I did receive there.“

“Aloha Catering has an amazingly epic ambiance with cool decor and festive for holidays. The patio is very spacious and hands down best Hawaiian local joints in LA. Most Hawaiian restaurants are in Soith Bay OC San Diego and Bay Area. Fortunately we are blessed on Los Angeles to have a venue such as this.“

“17.99 for a bowl that looked small at first but I was mistaken after eating purple rice. Enjoyed the poke, tofu, and all fixing choices and sauces. Staff is very friendly and patient at explaining all the variety of choices. Will be back again“

“The food is pretty much the same as locations I visited in in Maui. Although a bit heavy on the carbs, two scoops of rice and Mac salad. The grilled chicken and beef was pretty good, not excellent but good for the price. The interior of the store is cramped hot and not completely conducive to a pleasant dining experience but I'm sure most people take food to go“

“Uh huh! Found my Poke Place in LA.... even the rice is amazing!“

“Such a good experience !
I'm thankfull I got to meet that lady during my short trip in LA. Such a breath of fresh air and a lovely experience.
She is patient and welcoming and the food is great ! I mean, just enter the shop and you'll know you'll be eating good tonight.
The portions are huge for the price too. We did 1 serving for both me and my sister, it was perfect. ▶️ 15$ ! That's it !
If I lived here, this would be my go-to for sure.“

“Best #poke hidden inside a market. #TheBomb“

“The food is very good here. It's way more than a notch above fast food. Prices are more than fair. I could be wrong, but the interior looks almost the same as Shakas did. ... My salmon was cooked to perfection. We'll definitely be back.

Lots of Dodgers love in the place! 💙⚾🧢“

“Incredibly top-of-the-food-chain grade wings from Banh Mi Cafe. Lemon pepper and Thai Chilli flavored ones were Chef’s kiss. Truly a blissful experience. The Garlic Soy Sauce Spring Rolls were not deep fried, more Summer Roll. That one was a sad emoji face. But the Wings overpowered the disappointment of the spring rolls.“

“Love their teriyaki burger on lettuce wrap. Delicious!“

“Heard about this place on theskedge.com and it was good timing, because I was really in the mood for poke. It was pretty delicious. I had some salmon & tuna, with seaweed salad, etc. Not expensive at all either so I definitely recommend.“

“food was fresh, fast and delicious. so glad I went there today“

“I love that they give a lot of free stuff. I call this the one stop shop because we ate, talked and played games. They actually have pretty good games there. I brought 4 friends now and they all loved it! Maybe I should get a commission, hee hee!“

“What a gem! This place has delicious food for an amazing price. I paid $12 for a plate worth two meals. Unbelievable! You will not find a place in LA in 2026 with food this good for such a steal. They even had Siracha and the staff is super friendly.“

“I wanted to try this place for the longest time. The No. 44 filled me up, as well as satisfied my taste buds.“

“Been coming here for about 6 years and it’s still my favorite poke spot. The fish is always fresh, the portions are great, and it tastes just as good as it did the first time I came. I’ve tried a lot of poke places around LA County and always end up comparing them to this place.

You can tell it’s family owned because they actually care about the quality and consistency. Nothing fancy, just really good fresh poke every single time. Definitely worth supporting local businesses like this.“

“Kevin and Eric are the proprietors and they deliver great poke dishes! Love the food. Love the atmosphere.“

“I love ❤️ poke! Every time I go there I’m greeted with a smile and all the workers are so friendly. They’re also very accommodating with any special requests.“

“If you plan on wanting to eat at home, definitely order ahead..Wait for Pupusas is usually about 20 minutes. The people there are very nice, they have reasonable prices, and I feel like they are consistent with the quality of their food( at least for the last 5 years that I've been going).. my go tos are usually Pupusas de queso con jalapeño and bean and cheese, oh and the loroco ones. Plus an order of yucca frita with chicharron.“

“Friendly customer service“

“If you from Hawaii, born and raised like me, then you know you need da kine grindz thats like back home.

Let me do this in proper English now.
I had the chicken musubi..
and it stay ono! Ok. Hawaii talk coming out. Da buggah stay mean!

I also got the Hula Guava pie, and its like a giant poptart, but with guava in it. That's super ono too!

The food is like back home and I eat at a lot of restaurants back home in Hawaii, and ate in multiple restaurants in different countries, and the mainland.

So if you from Hawaii and try the food, you know you know.
This food is super ono!
I will be back.
Mahaloz! 🤙🏽🌺“

“Had the fish combo (with shrimp) - was so delicious. The fish, the sauces, the flavor. Top tier. PLUS the girl working was a joy. So kind, attentive & helpful. Highly recommend the fish - I had the crispier, thinner one - but will be back to try others. Loved it here“

“love the taste.really good“

“Clean, Neat, Great community and work ethic“

“The cashier is always so nice!! And the chili oil is amazing. I can only get the chili oil at this location always my go to for something quick! Sometimes they are very busy the line gets out the door sometimes but that just means the food is 👍🏼 definitely recommend if your in the area“

“Never had pokē before, it was really good. Very friendly staff.“

“I love poke in general. It can be tricky to come across a good poke place. I haven't had poke in a long while because of this.
I got salmon, spicy tuna, albacore, and scallops for my protein. White Rice base. Carrots, edamamae, mandarins, cucumber, this soft-crunchy combo topping that looks and tastes like stuffing (actually really good). I didn't know what sauce so I got spicy mayo and this combo the server recommended.

It was all excellent. Loved every bite. Fairly priced and servings were good.“

“my 1st visit. i will return for more!“
