Hawaiian Restaurants near Whittier, CA

“Always a pleasure to write a 5 star review, this is definitely worth taking my time because the customer service was above and beyond, food was great and during a hot day it was definitely refreshing to walk in for my lunch.

To comment on portuon its a scoop just like everywhere else, i did see reviews in portion, but they are good, dont let that stray you away from trying this place. I've had poke from all over and definet3worth the drive and worth the try.

Hughly recommended.“

“I’ve been to other Ohana’s it’s always been a good meal, this place isn’t any different.I just had 4 spam musubi’s and 2 chicken musubi’s. All were delicious and filling for the lunch hour. I weil suggest “easy rice” for less rice and the chicken/spam were cooked/sauced perfectly.I’d definitely come back and try their other menu items.“

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

“I’ve been looking for a poke place and happened to find this little place. Went there once and the gentleman was very nice and helpful in the selection. My husband and I tried it at home and it was spectacular! Came back today and they were so generous in the quantity. I could say the best poke place I’ve eaten! If only I could afford eating at this place everyday, I would!“

“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.“

“Very nice people working here! Three of us came in, had the bbq mix, Korean short ribs and battered shrimp. The beef was a lot of gristle and couldn’t eat it and one piece of chicken was pretty tough. The rice was good, macaroni salad good although unique. The Korean ribs were good. Staff was nice and helpful! $1 to refill your soda on fountain or you can buy can or bottle soda. Interesting concept.“

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

“it's a friendly place with alot of happy smiles, it's food is great! best Hawaiian food I've tasted in a while... u can usually catch the owner at the shop and is always willing to talk to u as if u are part of the family.“

“I love poke bowl as it is so fresh and healthy for lunch/dinner. I like the premium ingredients you can find here with all options customized to your choice.I put:1. Spicy tuna2. Salmon3. Scallop4. Seaweed5. Crab meat6. Crunchy garlicAnd so many more delicious ingredients! The big bowl is good to share with 2 people.“

“All day breakfast and great prices!“

“Great food, cool decor Cozy.“

“What an amazing dining experience! The service was superb—attentive without being overbearing, and our waiter made great suggestions on the menu. We started with the spam musubi, which was surprisingly delicious, and followed with a perfect plate of huli-huli chicken. The food was fresh, flavorful, and a true taste of Hawaii. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, with tropical plants, soft lighting, and beachy accents. It felt like we were dining in a Hawaiian paradise. I will absolutely be back to enjoy both the food and the atmosphere again!“

“For someone who adores beef, their beef bowl is da bomb, big and juicy just the way I like it. My boyfriend also had the big bros house special and I honestly don’t know which is best cause the sauce is heavenly.“

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

“I LOVE coming here whenever I'm in the area! I got the spicy beef and some spam musubi along with a Thai tea. The spam musubi is to die for, I finished one so quick I was confused where it went ?

The spicy beef was so savory and tasted like home, and the Thai tea tastes legit. They have green tea too which l've had before and is perfect! Sweet but not too sweet.

The owners were super sweet and the ambience is so cute, very Hawaiian themed. I have no complaints at all!?️❤️“

“I stopped coming here a couple months ago because of the rude cashier and decided to order today. I called to make an order to go and the same cashier Anna answered. She put me on hold and after a minute I heard it hang up, after she left the line busy because it wouldn’t even ring. It’s always the same girl giving us terrible service but that was just the cherry on top. The younger guy cashier was there when I pulled up and honestly saved it he’s very nice otherwise I’d never come back here again. Everyone at my job that comes here said the same thing too.“

“Staff was very friendly and generous with their portions. Some items cost extra, so be aware. The food was delicious, and the staff was patient with us in selecting and recommending items, since it's been a while since we've had poke. Will come back here again when we are in the area.“

“Nice and fast service!!! 😉“

“Delicious bbq Hawaiian style chicken with rice and macaroni salad 😋“

“Clean, Neat, Great community and work ethic“

“Poki Bomb offers an exceptional poke experience! The ‘Two Scoop Protein Bowl’ allows for great customization with a variety of fresh and flavorful ingredients. I loved the Spicy Tuna and Salmon as my protein choices, and the addition of imitation crab was a perfect touch. The wide selection of sauces, like the Spicy Ponzu and Korean Spicy, added just the right amount of zest. Toppings like crunchy garlic and Furi Kake made the bowl even more enjoyable. Overall, the quality and variety make this spot a must-try for poke lovers!“

“The food can be hit or miss sometimes… But the last few times we went there in August 2024, my salmon and scallops were very fresh! My kids also enjoyed their tuna. I love that they have quinoa and brown rice option and they are very generous with their portion. I feel that small size (two selections) is more than enough..

It’s quite small with a few tables but most people order to go. If I’m not mistaken, there is always infused water which is very refreshing especially in the summer.

I with they were a little more consistent in the freshness of their food. But, overall, it’s our “go to” when we want something fast but not junk food.“

“This food is fresh every time all day. Good selection. Not just all chicken entrees like other places. Cream cheese wonton is awesome. Chow main is the bomb. Check it out hombre.

Kid-friendliness: They have a kid combo. Comes with ice cream. In other words.this is a family oriented restaurant. You'll like/love them. They Nice“

“Best poke ever!!!“

“This place rocks, I go here generally every couple weeks if I can and the food is always delicious. The teriyaki beef bowl is what I get most often. The meat and rice are well cooked and their sauce is one of the best I’ve had. Their portions are pretty generous and sometimes enough to save for a small meal leftover. I also often get either the kalbi or beef ribs on the side and I love both of those too.
The second you walk in you know the place is legit, there’s the sweet smoke of great barbecue in the air and the people at the counter are always so nice, I’ve never had an issue with service. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone!“

“This spot is inside a business park so they close at about 1:30pm, but, this is the best poke I have ever had. The poke here set the bar for my other poke restaurant visits.
I like the way you pay for it first then they call your number and you can pack your bowl with extra toppings. It is well worth the price and wait in line!
Been a customer here since 2018. ?
The staff is super friendly too and they also have delicious gyoza.“

“Great food and good service. Nobody ever seems to eat there just pickup. My go-to place for Hawaiian BBQ but they also make a cheeseburger and fries that are really good. Their prices are reasonable, especially because they serve very large quantities. Just a single plate is two meals for me and I'm a big eater. Highly recommend.“

“Very Delicious! I will definitely eat there again 🤤“

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

“Long over due review. Vinnesa is such a sweetheart! She was incredibly helpful when taking my phone order and made sure I was 100% satisfied. Thanks to her customer service I will continue to come to this location even though I have one closer to my house! Give my girl a raise or a promotion or something! She definitely deserves it 👏🏽 💓“

“We found this place because we were in the area and gave it a chance. It's a traditional Poke spot. You write down what you want on their little menue sheet hand it to them, when it's ready you go up pay and pick it up. The food was pretty good. Tasted fresh. The dinning area was decent and clean, we chose to eat outside because thier a/c was a bit to cold for us. The service staff needs some improvements. They answer questions as if the customer is annoying them, it was hard understanding what they said because they all talk under thier breath 🤷🏼‍♀️ when asked to please repeat, they get annoyed and repeat it in a tone. Aside from that this spot is a good place for lunch.“

“I was visiting my mother and decided to get something to eat and liked the reviews. They are the nicest people and amazing customer service. And don't get me started on the food wow. The portions are generous and the prices are wonderfully affordable. Please go and support them you won't be disappointed.“

“I have a gluten allergy & they misheard my order, but the fixed it with a smile! They also clean the “ordering area” after each patron & tried to give me a refund for the amount of the dish I ordered! Their fried fish and shrimp plate looked amazing, but I just couldn’t eat it. It was kinda sad. This place was great & made fresh to order!!“

“Cozy. Yummy. Friendly. An absolutely great family vibe. Cost effective. Delicious. A great staff. Privately owned. Listening to Perry Como while eating delicious macaroni, salad and chicken Katsu has never been so enjoyable. Make sure to say hello to the folks when you’re here!“

“Get there! Great breakfasts, coffee, & Portuguese sausage….“

“The food is excellent. The staff is friendly. I highly recommend it. Inside is clean. Only problem, and it's not their fault, it doesn't smell good outside. Unfortunately it's their location. So be prepared before you arrive. But I can bypass that for the food.“

“What can I say, the food there is excellent. All the plates are affordable and you get a lot of food (tastes so yummy). The staff are polite, and respectful and the chefs are excellent. If you want some delicious Chinese Food or Hawaiian Grill, I highly recommend this establishment to everybody.“

“Was in the area and saw this poke spot was close. I stopped in and the food looked really fresh and there was plenty of people inside and it was only 11:30. I ordered the large with 5 scoops and it filled me up. If I’m back in the area I will definitely have to stop and eat again“

“First time here. Place looks a little rough but the food is good! Best teriyaki chicken I have had. Idk what they did but man this stuff is great. It's better than other Hawaiian places and even Chinese places. I'm surprised, will return.“

“Brings back memories. I lived in Hawaii and eaten at L&L Hawaiian BBQ many times. So my expectations were a bit high and displaced did not disappoint. I ordered the mixed grill and it was delicious. The meat and macaroni were excellent. The white rice was white rice. Definitely taste at the food I had in Hawaii. If I had one negative view, it would be the price, $17 for the plate, but I guess it’s a sign of inflation in this economy.“

“It’s food and quench’s hunger! 5 ⭐️“

“I rarely write reviews unless the experience was really bad or really good… This place is probably my favorite poke spot around now. Definitely coming here for my poke even though I live 20 mins away. Very nice people and generous. That’s how you get the people to come back. Thai tea was the best I’ve had (and I drink a lot of Thai tea). ?“

“Me and my wife moved to La Habra over 9 years ago and we found Hi barbecue shortly after we moved there it is our favorite place to get chicken teriyaki with vegetables the best we've ever had the staff is kind and friendly and they always make sure your order is “

“The food is delicious �“

“sooooo good!“

“Wonderful place! Staff is super friendly. I got a regular bowl with salmon and purple rice. The sauce was really good and the selection of toppings and fish. Highly recommend of you like poké

Vegetarian options: Its mostly fish so great for pescatarians but not for vegans.

Parking: Plenty of parking spots

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp up to the door of the restaurant and the inside is pretty open too.“

“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!“

“I was there on Sunday, I have been here numerous times but today my family decided they wanted to try it out. At arrival we were greeted by 2 guys, then Jose greeted us and seeing that we were really indecisive he offer us various options, but he also recommended their new grill fish aloha. So we ordered some and he was not wrong when he said it was pretty good, thanks to all the kitchen staff and thank you very much Jose for your help and patience. I really recommend this place ask for Jose he will help you with all your questions. Keep up the good work Jose.“

“I had lunch here with a friend the other day. My friend considers this to be one of her favorite restaurants. She likes the food, and the atmosphere. I agree with her; it was good. I had the Chinese salad. It's a bed of lettuce with shredded chicken and fried wanton wrappers as croutons with a teriyaki sauce. If you are a fan of Hawaiian cuisine, this is the place for you.“

“I ordered 6 medium poke bowls to celebrate with family unfamiliar with this place and was amazingly surprise with the proportions of food and the quality of taste as well.
The Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee was delicious as well. Excited to try other dishes in the future?“
