11 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Makawao

“Food is AWESOME and they give you a lot! Friendly staff!“

“The best chicken! All the bbq was delicious.“

“The BEST food on the island, hands down. I was in serious need of some food that warmed and comforted my soul, and Sol Brothers delivered. The brisket is out of this world, and very good portion size. Would 100000% come back and recommend to anyone, if you are like and was circling the food truck lot indecisive, go with Sol.“

“The former Pearl's Korean BBQ is now Won's.

MENU:
Mix of Korean & local Hawaiian entrees.

FOOD:
Chicken Katsu
While this is far from being a Korean dish, it's what I was craving. The two slabs of chicken were breaded and deep-fried to a golden brown, and laid out on 2 scoops of steamed white rice. You can choose 4 banchan sides, in which I got mac salad x2, bean sprouts, and potato mayo. Their katsu sauce is too sweet, which is why I always do takeout so I can use my Kagome-brand sauce from home lol.

Man Doo Kook Soo
This is a Korean version of ramen but was anything but. The rice noodles were a bit overcooked and didn't have any chewiness to it. I like them as a somen dish but not as a noodle soup. The broth was clear, very subtle in flavor, and tasted similar to egg drop soup. The bowl was topped with 4 good-sized pieces of soft mandoo with a tasty pork filling, egg washed shredded pork, and cooked white & green onions. Temperature was hot but not searing. Better than pho but it'd never dethrone a ramen in my world, lol.

SERVICE:
The workers were welcoming and friendly. I got my order in about 10 minutes.

OVERALL:
Bang for your buck! They'll do well here.“

“Simplicity of ordering. Attentive cashier, even with a slight language barrier, awesomeness of that he really display his attentiveness to learn and understand customers. Clean dinning area. Huge menu options. Food cooked immediately after ordering. Mini plates, and regular to go plate size. GENEROUS PORTIONS, thank you! Food flavor did not disappoint. Spacey dinning area. About a merchant shop door away, outside is an outdoor seating area. Adequate parking. This visit .. well I went two days in a row, I had the mini portion Meat Jun twice. They also serve up Banana Lumpia! Get some. I'll be back! Thank you for everything Kings BBq in Haiku. -Rowena“

“I have to admit, I was little hesitant to try this spot inside the swap meet, but boy, am I glad I did.

I had the combo plate with ribs and chicken, and it comes with a side of white rice and corn. I also paid extra to try their kimchi.

Everything was tender and flavorful.“

“One of the best mixed plates I had on the island!! Me and my group all loved kings bbq during our trip to Maui. The owner kai is so great and we came back multiple times during our stay. 🌺

Our favorite bites were definitely the mixed plate with chicken katsu and the beef short ribs. Comes with Mac Salad and Rice and the Mac salad was an easy 10/10!! We also tried the spam musubi, chicken low mein, and the banana egg roll which were all so good.

Location is also really great right across from the beach making it a really good option to grab to go and eat with a view 🌅 All the food we got was also really affordable which is why I easily give it a 5 ⭐️“

“Catered for a family lunch at Maui Heritage Hall. We ordered enough food to feed Kauai, according to some relatives who attended. We had a wonderful variety of dishes and everyone enjoyed all of them - esp. the leftovers to take home! Try the Roast Pork - it is really good!“

“One of our must-haves when we go. It's been awhile since we've been, but they're in a little building now instead of just the tents over the trailer rotisserie so that's cool..food was delicious as always. Our party of 6 did a combo of chicken plates, rib plates, and combo plates and everyone was happy. Service is fast and there is plenty of parking in the lot next to the building.“

“This has become our favorite place to eat in Maui. We eat here every trip but this time we came back 3 times!! Two favorites, coconut shrimp with sweet potato fries AND the mahi mahi (I now prefer this over Paia Fish Market’s) it was so tender and the sauce served with it is out of this world!! I actually got and extra sauce when we left to eat with our steak the next day. It was that good!! The owner is the sweetest and her gift of creating delicious food is next level. Cannot wait to come back!“

“Staff is great, never had a bad experience. Food is really good, mahalo to the cooks, it's a what you pay for situation and it's a lot better than what would be considered acceptable and the price is right. There's indoor and outdoor seating and it's in beautiful kihei so no complaints. Keep in mind, not all L & L's are created equal and we have the best food of all the ones on the island here in kihei.“
