“10/10. Do not come here unless you’re prepared to ruin Hawaiian food everywhere else forever. Everything I’ve had here is straight-up criminal. The Death Row Plate is my go-to, a stacked sampler loaded with Hurricane chicken, Korean fried chicken, and poke that will knock your balls clear across Pacific Hwy. Also… the grilled shrimp plate?? Absolute menace. I could eat 100 of them like candy and still be looking around for more. And the mac salad that comes with every plate? Should be illegal. I’m pretty sure it violates at least three laws. To top it off, the owner runs this place solo, in there every day, grinding, serving every plate herself until she sells out. And she sells out every single day. She’s born and raised Oahu, so you’re getting so you’re getting the real deal, no mainland shortcuts, no watered-down flavors, just straight island heat. Hours: 10–2…..Translation: show up early or cry in your car. 🫳🎤“

“We had Noho's cater our wedding and it was definitely the right move! Super flexible, took care of everything; Their team came to the venue vans loaded, set up, served, cleaned up... it was all included. We had them do our bar too and they did custom his/her drinks for us too. The team is incredibly nice and super flexible. We found out later that they actually filled everyone's water before dinner too. And of course, everything was delish. Our 'ohana was raving about the food. If you're looking for a taste of home for your event this is it.“

“First time here and we will definitely be back again. My husband and daughter stopped in for some shave ice. Not too long after, my daughter accidentally dropped hers, leading to lots of tears. The person working came out, unbeknownst to us, with a replacement and reassurance. Thank you, it was very kind.“

“ALOHA ON A PLATE
I’ve made my Hawaiian food truck tour of Tigard and can firmly say Paradise Grindz is THE BEST. The Hawaiian Plate can feed two and is an excellent value providing a great mix of their scratch-made items. My family of four dined here for $50 with tip and left with full bellies.
If you are a lau lau fan, this is the best spot for housemade goodness wrapped in legit taro leaves. The garlic chicken is also fantastic and great if you’re craving a flavorful fried chicken. Poke is well seasoned and a great touch with the paradise bowl.
Mac salad is also a fave and perfect compliment to their dishes.
If you have young kids, this is the perfect pod to visit when it’s hot because they have a water fountain for the kids to play in.
Family that opens this spot is lovely and the keiki are so sweet.
Try these grindz and be sure to spread some Aloha.“

“By far and away, my most favorite eatery in Portland. Fried rice spam bowl is my favorite!! But their Kahlua pig and Shoyu chicken are top notch too. Friendly staff, and safe space. Mahalo Plenty.“

“We’ve been wanting to try this place for a couple months now and finally made it in. The owner was super friendly and the food was delish! There’s a handful of options available, and they have a bunch of sauces to pick from. I got the Maui Girl plate. I definitely recommend!“

“This is, hands down, the best local style plate lunch restaurant in Portland. The garlic shrimp is my go-to, but everything I've had is ono!!
Portions are generous. I almost always get a couple meals out of a single order.
I recommend GrindWitTryz to everyone I know and they're never disappointed!“

“I purchased lunch for my team at work and every one of us couldn’t get enough. To quote one person “it’s like a flavor party in my mouth!” Is an understatement. All of the flavors were perfectly paired, and not overpowering with one or the other. I can’t wait to get more!“

“It’s always so nice to come to this place. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service is friendly, and everyone always welcomes you with a happy smile.
The drinks are amazing, and the way they present them is such a big part of the experience. There is always something fun and surprising, fire, creative decorations, or unique presentation details. It really makes the place special. They have very high-quality rum and other alcohol selections as well. Thank you so much for always creating such a great experience! 👌💯“

“I have always loved this place and it's hard to be too disappointed. The food today surprisingly wasn't as good as usual. The spam was burned on one side and uncooked on the other and the orange chicken was dry and chewy. Ultimately I still love this spot and I like the location.“

“The ube dessert and spicy tuna onigiri are delicious and the guys that work here are so friendly and helpful. They gave me recs on where to go and what to check out in Portland which I appreciated. I came back here multiple times during my short trip from Bend. l plan on coming back next time I'm in the city!“

“A real gem in the university district! Having been to Hawaii and eaten authentic plate lunch I can assure you the other reviews are incorrect. The restaurant is clean and spacious. The food is prepared well, tastes excellent and is priced very reasonably for the large portions. Something hard to find in the area. Another rarity is the owners take the time to get to know their customers. You can expect to be asked if you want "the usual" if you dine more than a few times. It is refreshing to see hard working small business owners still making it work.“

“I go here about every 4 or 5 months with my gma and have for many years. We only get the Poke bowls as theyre her favorite. Though they were better 7 years ago, that isnt rly that big of a deal for me compared to how hard it seems to get thru a line if there is one present. I tend to find myself limiting my changes to 0 between me and my gmas bowls just to ensure a line doesnt form. The process takes significantly longer than something like subway, and the other items are overpriced. But for a small Poke bowl I guess there arent rly cheap options outside a quality belt sushi style restaurant.“

“I got into kava this week, i don't like weed and I don't like alcohol. I can't bear to stand the residual effects afterwards. So I had been looking for something for a while that could offer some sort of anti anxiety properties. And so far, my kava journey has been nothing but positive. You can go here and buy thirty two ounce growlers for thirty three dollars. It's a very positive vibe environment as well. And I appreciate the staff, does that work there.“

“I tried for lunch one day and went back with my wife the next day so she could try. I will say first time I got the Macho King sauce it was not as spicy as I led to believe, but the next time it was hella spicy. Delicious either way, but may be a Russian roulette situation so be careful! The fries and whatever orange sauce they provide with them are outrageously good too. Very friendly staff.“

“Amazing catering experience. Super great Hawaiian cuisine and the delivery & set up(customer service) was exceptional. BTW, the sauces are super good! If your looking to host a party, don’t miss out on what the Local Grind has to offer.“
“Never written a review before but gotta share that this was super good. Honestly better than it needed to be and I’m thrilled about. I had the kalbi chicken with Mac. The dish was simple, no frills, but the cook on the chicken was excellent. The flavor was delish. Even the rice was perfect.
Thanks so much.“

“I love this karaoke spot. The decor is Hawaiian Lua Lounge themed with comfy booths and chairs, big tables, and 2 bars to order from. The food is tasty but the tiki drinks are the star of the show here.
My only complaint is that it's so popular on the weekends it may take 2 hours before you get to sing anything. Still, always have fun here. ^_^“

“I highly recommend their chicken! I ordered all four types Honolulu, Kilauea, Huli-Huli, and Molokai regardless of the flavor the chicken was delicious. Each piece was tender and filled with flavor. You can taste a piece of the islands in every bite.“

“This Hawaiian Cuisine lover is always looking for the next best thing in Hawaiian eats, even when traveling to other cities across the country. This time around, while visiting Portland Oregon, my wife and I discovered Da' Hui Hawaiian Bar & Grill nestled on Foster Road, it offers quite an array of known and some less known island cookery. Some of their offerings include supposedly Portland's Best Kalua Pork, the likes of Hawaiian Style Chicken, Lemon Chicken and many, many other dishes ready to entice you. A few of us stopped in for a bite and I must say, none of us were thoroughly impressed! One of my fave dishes – Loco Moco in all its simplicity, I thought lacking. I had their Loco Moco consisting of grilled and lightly seasoned (somewhat bland) beef burger patty served over rice, topped with 2 sunny side up eggs (which can’t be made wrong), with grilled/sauteed onions and totally smothered with a less than respectable brown gravy, then served with an okay macaroni salad! Although everything we tried was just okay, I found it nothing to write home about. Not bad, but not great either. It’s just a place to get your adequate Hawaiian on!“

“We had our Company Christmas party at Ohanna Hawaiian Cafe and everyone that worked there was so gracious and helpful. We had a mix of ages and everyone found something to their liking on their menu. The food is fresh, delicious and huge servings. I had the Kahlúa pork with mac salad and white rice. So flavorful and filling. All our team and their family had a great time and we celebrated the holiday in style 💕 Thank you Ohana 🙏“
