50 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Kailua

“We visited Easyque recently and I’ve been craving the food ever since!! Absolutely everything was delicious! 😋 😍“

“Great place to eat after a day at the beach. You can sit inside or go around the side and find several tables in the large hallway. I prefer the hallway as there are a lot less people and it’s quieter. The restrooms are near the hallway as well. K and K is better than L&L.“

“Went to the new location in Kaneohe and the brisket and pulled pork was anazing! I'm giving them four stars because the wait was an hour long wait and my elderly parents were tired and famished by the time food was ready.“

“Great food. Cool atmosphere. Awesome shakes.“

“Was starving after spending the day at Lanikai Beach. Always great food at L&L. You really can't go wrong. I had the seafood platter with the bbq chicken and it was perfect. Cant wait to come back to Oahu again and stop by here to complete a perfect day at the beach. ALOHA!“

“Quite honestly it was one of the best food experiences of my entire trip to O'ahu, even though it was just an emergency dinner after a very long hike - I was very hungry. The place has a local climate attached to it with friendly people you can talk to and listen to their stories. Prices are really good for the amount of meat you get and its very tasty. Only the mac n cheese wasn't that great for me but I guess it's just not my thing.“

“Wanted some Island food for a quick lunch before heading to beach. The menu was varied and plentiful. I got the lau lau pork (first time) and it was good. Husband got seafood plate with chicken katsu. The amount of seafood was same as the katsu (he’d hoped more seafood, given the name). Said the seafood was good, katsu was better.“

“Delicious! I will be back! Mahalo“

“Simple, shareable, strongly spiced food, reasonably priced but will make you want to drink. Cozy, maybe 10 tables total. Bonus points for being open late but that will mean rowdy tables. Party room next door overwhelms the ambiance with skull-numbing, throbbing bass. Limited parking.“

“Delicious smoked brisket, pork & beef ribs, homemade sausage and sides! Friendly personable staff in a Great location. Stop by soon, you won’t be disappointed. mahalo“

“Hands down the best Japanese BBQ on the island! We’ve tried many Yakiniku both in Hawaii and LA but this was by far the best quality! Not only the quality of the meat but the service was excellent. You know when the vibe, food, and the people are good, it’s the best experience you can get. Highly recommend this place to try!

Our favorite was the Premium beef tongue with green onions and the intestines!“

“Delicious! I will be back! Mahalo“

“Every time I come to Oahu I make sure we eat here at least once. This time it was our first stop off the plane. My cousin's wife is an Oahu native and recommended this place, she nailed it! So good! The best kimchee I've had since my aunt used to make it for us when we were kids.“

“Love this place Foods great Great service Awesome“

“Reasonably priced, great service and they put lots of food in the plate lunch!“

“Friendly service, great food, wide variety - always hot and fresh.“

“Best garlic shrimp I’ve ever had! I’ve been to 15+ eateries ordering the same dish on the mainland and the Hawaiian islands. The guava fried chicken and Lilikoi Pie were epic too! �“

“Best chicken in Hawaii 🔥🔥“

“My family and I was in search for dinner tonight. I did not want to go too far from where we were staying at (Ritz Carlton) and my 90yr dad could not walk too far. I found Topped and ordered three meals - shoyu chicken, kalbi, and bulgogi meals. We brought them back to our hotel to devour them. The food was very delicious and flavorful. The shoyu chicken was thick and tasty. My dad really enjoyed the kalbi. The side salad and corn was a good balance. Thank you and recommend this place!!“

“Service with a smile. Tasty ribs for the soul. Oh yea, the beans were superb! Bozie Jones BarBQ is located on South King Street across the street from St Mary’s Episcoplal -the church with the huge red cross on the front. Bozie is opened 12noon to 6pm, Thursday through Sunday. Yum yum eat em up!“

“I’ve had L&L and many other variations, but this is the best Hawaiian BBQ I’ve tasted, full stop.Ordered the BBQ mix plate and chicken katsu, and every component - from the rice and macaroni salad to the meat - was perfect.Don’t hesitate, just go here.“

“Food & service were exceptional!“

“My boyfriend (Drew) and I picked up dinner here last night and the BBQ beef sandwhich was amazing!!! We love how the spice of the sauce wasn't too spicy. The pickled daikon and carrots complimented the spice and the beef was cooked to perfection.

We were very surprised by the mung bean tapioca pudding. We were not expecting to like it. Overall, it was not too sweet and had a good flavor to compliment the BBQ Beef sandwhich.

Great spot for lunch or dinner! Fast & great service 🤙“

“If you’re looking for genuine Korean flavors, Moobongri Soup & Yakiniku is an absolute must-visit. As an English speaker, I found the staff to be incredibly welcoming, and the menu was easy to navigate, making the whole experience seamless.The highlight of the meal was definitely the Soondae (Korean blood sausage). It is hands-down some of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly textured and packed with savory flavor. Whether you get it on its own or in the soup, it’s clearly prepared with care and tradition.The broth in their soups is rich and comforting, and you can tell they simmer it for hours. Every side dish (banchan) was fresh and tasty, adding that perfect authentic touch to the meal. Whether you're a longtime fan of Korean cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place will not disappoint.Great food, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!“

“We saw this place food truck place on Instagram and noticed, so we decided to check it out. Let me just say, wow. This place is amazing.

We tried the Bonito Smash Plate, which is basically an everything platter, and it easily fed three of us with extra to take home. Everything was so good. Even for a food truck lot, the whole place had a great vibe, the staff was super friendly, and the food really hit the spot.

The go-to move is the garlic shrimp with extra sauce on the rice. Honestly, that combo alone is worth the trip. We also tried the BBQ chicken, smoked meat, and kalbi, and everything was packed with flavor.

Highly recommend this place. Great food, great people, and definitely worth going out of your way for.“

“self rotating skewers were so delicious and fun to watch. side dishes were amzing too“

“The spicy pork feet were absolutely delicious! It was honestly the best spicy pork feet I’ve had in Hawaii. The flavor was amazing, and the perfect balance of spicy and savory. The staff were also incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend this place! 😊“

“Excellent experiences at BBQ town. They star of the show for us were the Teri beef burgers. Such an explosion of flavor in your mouth. Also pictured on another occasion was the short rib mini plate which as you can see is enough for at least one meal if not two. I called ahead for both our orders and picked up. The staff is super friendly. The prices are extremely reasonable. Definitely recommend visiting!“

“The food was so good! Ok, there's no indoor dining and the outdoor dining is really rough but during our meal there the locals seemed to love it and for good reason. This is what I imagine authentic Hawaiian BBQ for the working man is like. When you go to a BBQ place and see the orange construction either shirts, is probably going to be good and it was. The girl at the register recommend the beef short ribs and they were amazing. My wife had the teriyaki chicken and it had amazing flavor, though a bit overcooked, I still finished it if for her gladly. My only warning: one dish is plenty for two hungry people! We were getting ready to head to the airport and didn't want any to go to waste, so we have half to a mother with four teenage boys. They were 😊. Definitely will return next time we visit the island.“

“Tasty as the name says. All the veggie sides are very tasty and they give you a generous amount. I ordered the bbq chicken and loved it. The overall cleanliness of the restaurant can be improved. But overall very good. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal in Kaneohe side.“

“We ordered 2 trays of shoyu chicken for a fundraiser and everyone loved it! Will definitely order from Richie’s again.“

“So delicious! Huge portions for relatively cheap prices. Staff were very friendly with quick service!“

“Wow…we loved our meals. We stopped here by quickly on our way from Waikiki to the airport, and easily found street parking. The vermicelli bowls with lemongrass chicken & tofu (and a banh mi with pork + chicken) were so fresh, so filling, and really high quality. Delicious Vietnamese iced coffee. The service was kind, as well. Highly recommend for a relaxed & high quality meal!!“

“Wow I drove past this place many times, shame on me for not stopping by for a bite. Today I was just looking for breakfast and maaaayyyynnnn the breakfast combo!!!

$9.59 bucks in ward is awesome, which included 2 eggs, 1 spam, 2 pocho sausage, 2 links, and 4 bacon.!!!. Most places would probably cost 15-20+ bucks for that.

Not to mention, it was only after my order was almost done I see a sign for $1 adder for fried rice, shucks. Definitely going try that next time. I forgot to ask for over easy when I grabbed my bag and was like oh no don't be scrambled haha. We'll it seems to be standard as over easy it was, so if u want scramble be sure to ask.

On top of the deal my food was out in a few minutes behind one small order and a large order, so gray job on quick time.

Inside is your normal plate lunch seating area. There is also metered street parking along the north bound lane of Cooke St.

They have a good size menu, and I definitely will be back to try some of their other food. For now I found my go to breakfast spot in ward area haha!!!“

“Genuinely the best roast duck & roast pork we've ever had. Some restaurants either get roast duck/pork right or they don't at all. This place absolutely does it right.

We got the roast duck with tripe & roast pork with pig stomach bentos. The duck & pork was juicy through & through. Pork was perfectly crispy without trying to cut the roof of my mouth. The sauce that comes with was flavorful without being too salty.

The tripe & pig stomach were both amazing as well & not too chewy or tough. Staff was friendly & service was quick. We almost passed on this place but so glad we stopped by!“

“If you are looking for some Cantonese BBQ while in Honolulu, you must stop here and pick up some of this guys meat. I got a half pound of BBQ pork (char siu), half pound of roast pork (siu yuk), and a half a chicken (see yao gai). All of the dishes were well prepared, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection! You will not find anything to complain about when this meat is in your mouth! I went for dimsum at a nearby stall, and chanced upon Meimei. I took a chance and I discovered a master! Please visit here and enjoy! I will return!“

“The freshest Poke on the Eastside, hands down! Mahalo“

“Our fave restaurant in Waikiki. We ate here on our first night, had our first American Thanksgiving here & made sure we came back on our final night. Food & service was amazing every time!“

“Lamb skewer shop. A restaurant that serves grilled food. It's delicious ~ I like that it's close to Walmart. Good for a quick drink. Revisit 2023.Absolutely delicious ?Cheap and delicious. The alcohol is cheap and good! 2024 3/31 Happy Easter. It's good to have a break.“

“Never disappointed whenever I see an L&L. I can’t resist the good old loco moco. The perfectly prepared beef patty, rice, and egg over easy that’s covered in gravy. The service is always quick and smooth.

You won’t regret a stop here 🤤“

“Chogajip is one of those late-night, old-school Korean spots in Honolulu. It’s not trendy or polished, but it fills a very specific role: big portions, strong flavors, and comfort food when you want something heavy and spicy.

If you grew up eating Korean soups or want something closer to Korean ajumma-style cooking rather than modern Korean fusion, this place makes sense.“

“but watch out for da guy begging fo money..I offered him half moom or pok hash n he declined food only want money..forget that..“

“I've dined at many L&L restaurants in Hawaii but this was my first visit to the location across from Whole Foods. There are lots of tables for diners, many are hidden around the corner from the drink dispensing station.

I ordered something I get at a number of L&Ls ... BBQ Cheeseburger combo (a deluxe BBQ cheeseburger, a LARGE bag of fries, and a drink); all for $12.50.

The burger contained lettuce, a thick slice of white onion, and a slice of tomato. Yum! The fries were crispy ... None were soggy ... Yay!

What can I say? I was impressed!“

“Excellent Korean BBQ! It was recommended by a local- great service and delicious food, great quality, decent portions at a decent price! Need reservations by calling restaurant.“

“The food is amazing and the service is always with Aloha 🥰“

“We both like chicken katsu so usually go there once a month. This place has the best chicken katsu that I have ever tasted out of all the L&L's. The chicken is not overcooked and tender. The katsu sauce is very different than many other places. The service is great“

“Always love ordering take out here at Ono Korean bbq. I'm craving kalbi today. Always quick and friendly service.

Vegetarian options: You can order just the side dishes as a plate mix. They will let you chose 4-5 side dishes items. I love their broccoli and bean sprout side dishes. They also have plain tofu as side dish.

Parking: There's always plenty of parking. We never had a time where we would go looking for parking.“

“We opted out of our reservation for the dining room and ate in the bar. Didn't catch the bartender's name but she was wonderful. The Mai Tai was great and our food was delicious. It was a thoroughly enjoyable meal.“

“The owners and the staff were very kind and friendly and very accommodating.
They clarified about the ingredients and made sure if we have any allergy restrictions and made sure we got the vegetarian options!
Highly recommend for all BTS and K-drama fans!“

“Came in and ordered Teriyaki beef Saimin, mini Loco Moco, Salmon burger with a side of fries, and a mini Chicken Katsu. Very delicious, the chicken was crispy, salmon was cooked well, noodles in the Saimin were not over cooked, and the Loco Moco was great! Highly recommend stopping in here!
We dined in, the A/C could be a little bit colder inside.“
