16 Best Barbeque Restaurants near Wailuku

“Greg was an amazing guy. Talked to us the day before and let us know exactly where he would be. Found him today and loved the food! We are from Texas, so know good BBQ, and this was incredible. Highly recommend! Great guy, great food made for a great experience. 5 stars!“

“Food was amazing! Highly recommend the seafood pancake, bulgogi+japchae, kimchi fried rice, and the kimchi fried rice.

Service was excellent. Very attentive and friendly.

Parking: Parking is in a covered lot right in front of the restaurant.“

“Love eating here the food is always spot on, yummy & worth the money. I like how I can order my food & within 5-10 minutes it's finished & cooked & ready to eat. This is in the mini mall area kind of next to the Wailuku Post Office down the road from Maui's Famous Tasty Crust.“

“Absolutely Amazing – Teriyaki Chicken & Nutella Explosion Rolls Heaven!
Wow, wow, wow! This place blew me away! First of all, the teriyaki chicken was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had on Maui - perfectly grilled with great flavor. It was savory and slightly sweet, with the perfect balance of teriyaki that left me wanting more. And just when I thought it couldn’t get better… I tried the Nutella Explosion rolls. Talk about heaven on a plate! Soft, gooey, and perfectly spiced with a generous swirl of Nutella, they were the ultimate sweet finish. I'm coming back to try all the sweets and the BBQ burger. 😁“

“Probably the cheapest restaurant on the island! I check in late in my airbnb and they were nice to serve me even though they were about to close in 5 mins! I got the honey walnut shrimp and it was pretty good! Not as crunchy but still how I like it.“

“Decided to try this place out instead of going to McDonald’s which is in the same parking lot. Ordered two of the breakfast plates. One with corned beef and the other with bacon. Both came with eggs and white rice. For the 2 breakfast it was about $14. Which is the price it would have been for about one breakfast across the parking lot. The service was quick as there was only one other party ahead of us. The decor is kinda sparse but there is plenty of seating. Overall the food was good especially for the price.“

“I know what you might be thinking when you see this place. Should I really bother trying to get genuine BBQ in Maui? Will this really stack up to a Carolina, Memphis, KC or Texas joint? Surprisingly, yes.

These folks know what they're doing, are super friendly, and their BBQ is legit. They're using local wood in their offsets too, so it is a unique experience compared to other places.

Can't go wrong with their ribs and I loved every side I tried, with the Mac n Cheese being a standout.“

“Great loaded cheese curds. The smoked pork was delicious“

“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.“

“Almost missed the location but we were happy we made the uturn. Got an order of chicken and an order of ribs. Chicken was great, first time trying huli huli chicken and was impressed with the flavour. Cooking over charcoal hits different and makes the flavour. Ribs were good, not overly seasoned but I like tasting pork.“

“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.“

“Try it and you will love it“

“These are good people!!!! We were traveling through and our water bottles were empty ... there were no public water dispensers and a nice employee from here offered to fill our bottles for us ? what a sweet generous and kind employees you have! Thank you!!!“

“Outstanding restaurant that many locals frequent. Owner recognized my accent as a Canadian tourist and we shot the breeze for a few minutes of his busy day. Large portions and good prices make it a hard to pass up. Already tried the location in Kahului, but this same meal better prepared and less salty. Mahalo ??“

“Great meal and friendly service. It's nice to have a local restaurant that features local food at affordable prices. Please keep your establishment one of my favorites to go to. L&L always has a consistent delivery of tasty meals and their quality is superb.“
