Hawaiian Restaurants near Bellevue, WA

“Amazing food and vast serving !!! I totally enjoyed the experience.“

“Good stuff!“

“Ordered my short ribs which came with the Mac salad. The food was amazing and the Mac salad was great! Highly recommend this place and will surely be back.“

“I had the evergreen bowl and it was wonderful!“

“My wife and I have been coming here for years and it’s our favorite poke spot. The fish is almost always spot on and the one time it wasn’t, they made sure to remediate the situation without any hassle. Most of the staff are friendly, but special kudos to Leo for going above and beyond with his customer service!“

“visited for the first time with my boyfriend yesterday and we were very surprised with the flavor and quality!! the tuna and salmon were delicious and the young man making our bowls was very nice! would come here again, as the price is very reasonable compared to other poke shops!“

“I should've known that if musubi is in their name and logo, to stick with the musubi through and through. Spectacular flavor all around regarding the musubi, but the poke? A slight disappointment which didn't even taste as fresh as your staples like FOB can be“

“Side quest for Hawaiian food is always comforting, and Kauai Family Restaurant is the spot for it. They’ve got all your Hawaiian favorites on the menu. I ordered a couple of the combos and some katsu—everything was solid. Some items were a bit on the salty side for my taste, but still enjoyable. It wasn’t too busy when I went, so the food came out pretty quick. The vibes inside really made you feel like you were in Hawaii. Definitely check their hours before you go, since they’re mostly open just for lunch and early afternoon.“

“The food is very good And they give you very good service but they are doing something very wrong with the employees. I have friends who work there and say that the tips left by customers are not given to the workers. If customers leave tips, they would have to make sure where the money they make with that money goes. They would have to talk to industrial labor so that they report that they do not want to give them that money. some do not speak for fear of losing their job but it is not fair what they do in that place with the workers“

“This has always been my time favorite restaurant in Seattle! I love that I can order some fish tacos or tortas to-go, especially in the summer when it’s just so pleasant to eat outside. I love the fusion of Mexican, Asian, and Pacific Islander cultures in the food because it represents the cultures in Seattle, especially south end.“

“We used Buddha Brudda catering for our wedding at Treehouse Point in July 2025. Not only were Drea and the entire team incredibly easy to work with leading up to the day, but the food was FANTASTIC, and the whole dinner service and bartending staff were so kind and accommodating the day of.

We worked with Drea to customize a menu that fit our needs, which included family-style service instead of buffet, which worked beautifully for our small group of 20 guests. We also opted for pre-dinner appetizers (charcuterie cones, egg rolls, etc) and late-night snacks (sliders, mac salad cups) for our overnight guests, which everyone LOVED!!

Keep in mind they do not do linens, plates/cutlery (beyond bamboo/plastic) or glassware, but were extremely accommodating by picking up/dropping off our rental order from a nearby events company. It was a HUGE help and one less thing for us to arrange.

Our guests absolutely loved the food - all of the appetizers, dinner, late night snacks, and on-the-fly sangria the bartender made with wine/tea/lemonade was fantastic.

I highly recommend Buddha Brudda for your catering needs if you want a relaxed, yummy, yet elegant dining experience!“

“I cannot even begin to explain how excited I was for this meal. I may or may not have had a little wine and a gummy (as one does), so the vibes were already high. I ordered the Chicken Katsu Curry and the Homemade Hamburger Steak with Gravy, and let me tell you—both were absurdly good. Like, offensively delicious. I usually roll my eyes when people say “amazing” too much, but here? Yeah. Worth it.
Let’s talk katsu. Instead of breast, it’s made with thigh meat—an absolute revelation. Juicy, flavorful, life-changing. I had to sit down (and yes, I was already sitting). But here’s the kicker: the leftovers. I reheated the curry-soaked katsu in the air fryer and it became next-level. The sauce seeps into the breading, then the air fryer brings back the crisp like magic.
And honestly? The real move is to fry it again after the curry hits. Re-fry. Trust me. The sauce-infused breading turns into this glorious crunch-meets-savoriness situation that’s borderline unfair. I would order this dish again just for the leftovers. Delicious the first time around, but the remix? Absolute perfection. 10/10, would air fry again.“

“The owners are truly kind, grateful people. The food is fresh- I had a Poke bowl with Salmon and avocado, and it was FULL of good flavor. My kids were crazy about the BBQ Chicken- awesome portions and fantastic sweet/smoky flavor! My wife tried the Yakisoba, and loved all the vegetables. Very solid value for the buck- this is a great place to check out. Glad we made the drive from Woodinville!“

“We always enjoy L&L. Would recommend to anyone that enjoys something new and a good old hamburger.“

“Amazing food and vast serving !!! I totally enjoyed the experience.“

“They had a 2 for $4.99 deal on spam musubi, which is exactly what I needed at 10:30pm on a Thursday night. Salty and sweet from the teriyaki glaze on the spam, it was great. It’s a nice place to hang out, with a couple retro game consoles to play. I will definitely be coming back to try their ramen and rice bowls too. Being just a few steps away from the light rail stop is very convenient.“

“Up until now, the only authentic poke spot that I found in WA was Ono Poke in Edmonds. I was born and raised in Hawaii so I don’t enjoy any of the inauthentic build-your-own poke type places. I was pleasantly surprised by this spot and would definitely eat here again!

The poke plate was $22 so after tax and couple bucks tip you’re looking at like $27. It seemed expensive until I started eating and noticed how much poke there was. Very fresh, seasoned well, so good. Unfortunately their Hawaiian poke had no limu which honestly sucks. And it was super heavy on the onions, which was a plus for me. There’s major construction in the parking lot right now but it was still easy to pull in and park. Come support this local business and keep authentic poke in WA!“

“Very good poke. Fresh and they had all the things I like to add in. We will go back.“

“I felt so strongly that I had to leave a review, I've eaten here once, and I had the katsu burger, which has TWO KATSU PATTIES, which was awesome. I'm usually a fan of the mountain of lettuce shreds but for the price? That was so worth it.“

“I recommend if you haven't gone go to the archive spot it's beautiful in the summer to sit outside with the killer view of downtown Seattle but this time I went to the Columbia City one and the food is exactly the same really good haven't been there in a while and it makes me wonder why I wait so long to go back because their food is great always consistent always delicious“

“Our goto special burger place“

“I've been a weekly customer since this location opened a few years ago, so I'm long overdue for this review. I can confidently say that this is the best Just Poke in the greater Seattle metro area. First and foremost, the staff are extremely friendly and courteous. Their lunch rush occurs in the heart of the biggest corporate building in Seattle, and they always handle it with kindness and efficiency. I usually order the build-your-own bowl, and I can't recall a single time I've had issues with my order as they were making it. The portions are more than enough for a filling lunch. The ingredients always taste fresh, and I can tell that the staff take extra care to maintain a clean kitchen, reflected in the food quality. Compared to other Just Poke locations in Seattle, the Columbia Tower location is just a step above. I've got no complaints, and I look forward to continue being a loyal customer for years to come!“

“Buddha Brudda has been my initial and favorite Hawaiian food experience. I'm in love with the macaroni salad, I always want extra. The servings are large and worth coming back to later for another meal. The food tastes so good. I'll be getting it again soon for sure.“

“I like this place. Really good place to go if your really hungry and tired. The food is super fast. You will maybe have to wait a few minutes at the most as they make it in front of you. You will have to wait until there is a place for you to sit and eat it as there is no seating inside to enjoy your meal. There is a nice square outside if its not raining that might be a good place to eat. The poke itself was very good. The ingredients tasted very fresh and they also have miso soup which I appreciate alot since I love miso soup. Definitely check this place out if your in need of a quick bite to eat but want something healthy“

“The platform I placed my order through had cancelled my order while I was on my way to pick it up (the store confirmed they had even opened/accepted the order on their end). They still made my order even though it had been refunded.

I will definitely be coming here to spend my money directly in the future to avoid any mishaps like that.“

“Easy to reach and quick to serve Poke Alice is a great spot to grab some lunch.

I got the Aloha Crunch and it was the perfect amount of food for a satisfying meal while also tasting pretty awesome.

Would definitely go back to try other things on the menu!“

“This place is awesome!!! I ordered online, and when I arrived my food was all ready to go and packaged nicely! The staff are friendly and professional. Good atmosphere; they play music which is nice. The food is good too; great quality ingredients for a relatively affordable price (when it comes to poké.)“

“Delicious poke for a great price, staff was super knowledgeable about gluten free options and very friendly and helpful!

Dietary restrictions: All dietary restrictions were clearly marked on the sauce menu, staff was very knowledgable about which things were gluten free and made sure to keep gluten items away from our food“

“Real beef and chicken pieces. Enough for two meals. Perfect sauce and perfect salad dressing.“

“The pike place bowl did it for me and then some!! I had half of my bowl in the restaurant where I got to people watch, then picked up up target ordered upstairs and finished the rest of my bowl on a bench in the park just north of the plaza. I have absolutely no complaints about the bowl. If the service was a little better I would've rated this bowl a 5.“

“My first visit was pleasant. Easy to use self order and pay stations. The poke bowl I ordered had plenty of food and was made with delicious ingredients. I will be visiting again.“
