“5 Stars – Delicious Local Comfort Food & A Hidden Gem That Was Worth the Turnaround!

After a long day at the beach, my family was starving and we were lucky to find L&L Hawaiian Barbecue just 10 minutes away. At first, it looked like it might be closed—but then I spotted the OPEN sign glowing, so I turned the car around—and I’m so glad I did!

The food was excellent, full of flavor, and the portions were generous enough to save some for later. We ordered the Seafood Combo and the Rib Combo (I think that’s what it was called), and both were spot-on. Total comfort food after a day in the sun!

The cashier/waitress was incredibly kind and welcoming, making sure we were well taken care of with that warm aloha spirit. It really made the experience even better.

They also serve Loco Moco and breakfast all day, which we’ll definitely be back to try next time.

If you’re in the area and craving some tasty, filling local-style eats, don’t pass this place up—it might just be the highlight of your meal plans!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Delicious! I will be back! Mahalo“

“Love this location! Service is always incredible, the woman we always see at the checkout is so friendly. The regular size katsu plate could literally feed 4 people, and get extra sauce, it's worth it!

Shrimp is always nice and crispy, and the Mac salad is spot on everytime.

“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!“

“I’m so happy someone recommended this location. My first place I went to was in Honolulu at Walmart. L&L and food was dry and burnt and very small portion when i orded regulat not micro.
This location was so delicious and cooked perfectly and great portion size. The macaroni salad was the best I’ve had in Hawaii. I have to say they did the next home job.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Food & service were exceptional!“

“The freshest and best banh mi sandwiches and spring rolls we have ever had. Crusty rolls packed with flavorful fillings and hot and crispy spring rolls wrapped in romaine lettuce, noodles and fresh mint make this little hometown restaurant a delight!“

“service is sometimes kind of slow but it's still L&L quality food, so you can't go wrong. I really appreciate though how clean this L&L is, it's probably the cleanest one ive ever been in (and best looking walls because it's still pristine white).“
