Bamboo Grove Hawaiian Grille

I chose to come here for my birthday with my family. It wasn’t quite like I remembered. The food was good but the atmosphere and service was lacking. It didn’t appear busy but the server seemed distracted and not efficient causing extra time from taking our order to delivering the check. She missed charging us for beers but when but acknowledged it to her to fix the bill. The server was nice. The atmosphere in the front seating area is awful as they have cool lightbulbs making it look grey and unappealing. I hope to be back again to enjoy what I used to enjoy.

Such a disappointing experience. We’ve been here plenty times before and the service and food have reminded us of our years living on the island. We brought our family from Australia here this evening and the staff working were beyond disengaging and truly just outright rude. Food was terribly sweet. No one checked in on us after serving and seemed more interested in wrapping up the evening. Mind you it was 6:30pm. Can’t say I’ll be back or recommend.

Generous portions for the Large plates. We got 2 to share among the 4 of us (2 kids and 2 adults) and had a bit left to take home for my lunch the next day. The food tasted pretty good and the service was great.

We loved this place up until our visit today . We were paying our bill at the counter and noticed the tray full of cooked chicken just sitting in a tray on the floor and workers just walking past it like this is a normal thing that happens ! We will not be back for this reason alone !

Bamboo Grove: The KINGS of screwing up your orders.

I have never seen a place mistake each and every order I’ve ever placed with them, until I started placing with Bamboo Grove. Genuinely simple instructions fly right out the window with these people. They scream incompetence, or they simply do not care.

It cost me an eye-watering 42 dollars for a large combo platter and a spam musubi - for that price, you should expect some level of care in their service, but no - they forgot my spam, and doubled the mac salad when on the receipt I asked for NO mac salad because I am lactose intolerant- this is the sixth order of theirs that I’ve received, and I kid you not, only one order has actually ever been 100% correct - otherwise I’m given the wrong size, or given nothing at all, or they mess it up in some other miraculous way.

The wait and distance and cost to receive this food is pain enough, but the fact that after an hour of waiting for the delivery to arrive, it ends up being entirely wrong, is utterly frustrating.

Wrong orders happen from time to time, and I have patience with restaurants when this happens, but what patience should I have for a business that has gotten it wrong 5 out of 6 times?? This is not some “accident” this is their behavior, this is their work ethic, or lack thereof.

Zero stars. - I’d give them much higher if they could get it together - I have never been this frustrated with an establishment before

Super nice Hawaiian style food I had the pork with rice and macaroni. Pork was excellent The servings were generous for the price. Could have used more selection in sauces.

I don’t remember the food that much but one thing I’m reminded about is the amount of smoke that billows from your building every morning.

I’m not really sure how this is possible. I don’t know what y’all are doing in that kitchen, but please stop burning the food so I can walk my dog in peace.

Huge Portions, great vibes and environment. Great cocktails and the Chicken katsu on Thursdays is life changing.

What a hidden gem! Easily the best Hawaiian food I’ve had on the mainland. Always easy to find parking. I’m amazed this place isn’t busier. The Shoyu Chicken is especially delicious.
