Hawaiian Restaurants near Des Moines, WA

“Great quick Poke restaurant when you're in a pinch for time or want your food quickly and want to hang out. The Des Moines location is gorgeous since it's fairly new. The poke bar is clean and very organized. I asked the person working what she recommended and she said the Rainbow bowl was their most popular, so I went with that. She was very quick putting my bowl together and ringing me up. Recommend if you want quick high quality poke with great service and off Pac Hwy 99.“

“A small restaurant w/ not much seating but thats ok, it has the essence of small famiky business w/ great food, customer service. The food was delicious, great flavor prepared well ( I ordered a whole other meal to go). I wouldve given it a five but my ribs were a lil dry but had great flavor to them so i still devoured them lol. Personal preference i wish the kimchi had more spice to it (but thats my personal preference)The portions for price were big and filling. The menu was big and i cant wait to go back and try more plus the breakfast menu.“

“We ordered the loco moco, ginger fried chicken, and kalua pork for dining in. Everything was great except the fried chicken which was way too sweet...tasted like candy. If they would reduce the amount of sugar in the marination and batter it would be perfect. But I woud be back again for sure!!!“

“Love the place at first , don’t go now. Small portions and prices increase Good bye“

“Fast and friendly service . Very clean restaurant , with good Hawaiian music 🎶 . Food was delicious!! Will most definitely come back .“

“Came in for lunch to a modest looking family owned establishment. Greeted by nice lady at the counter where we ordered some poke. Friendly service, seems like a small family operation with maybe two people running front and back. The meal came out when it came out but we weren’t at all in hurry. Generous portions and quality of fish surprised me for being all the way out in Kent. Looking forward to definitely come back 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!“

“My husband and I stumbled across this place in Federal Way. It was really good! I got a bbq chicken "mini" lunch plate and hubs got a cheeseburger combo. Portions were very generous. The chicken was really good and more than I could eat. Mine was chicken, rice, and Hawaiian macaroni salad. SO tasty! There was extra sauce, but it was so good it didn't need it. My husband's burger was nicely char grilled hand formed and big. Delicious crisp crinkle cut fries - More fries than he could eat and a soft drink - all for around $8.50! Mine was 10.00 or 11.00 (I think.) The place is not fancy at all but it was clean and pleasant, pretty much like a teriyaki place. The staff were all nice. Great Hawaiian plate lunch, great burger (so said hubs) great price. We'll be back. There are lots of other options to check out. I think it's a chain or a franchise but it was quality food.“

“It’s a warm local eatery with the Aloha vibe. Comfort mixed foods pulling from Filipino, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Portuguese and The American palette which make the Islander meals hit the spot. Warm season is coming, hit the patio. This is just like the mom and pop eateries on the islands.“

“I have been to about six or seven L&Ls. This is by far the best experience, costumer service, and food out of every one I have been too. If you like Hawaiian food check it out. It feels more like a mom and pop restaurant compared to a corporatetized version of Hawaiian food. If that makes sense.“

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

“This is one of my favorite poké spots. Short of making it myself, this is my go-to. Delicious, high quality fish with all the fixings you could ask for. The helping of fish is ample and consistent. This place also doubles as a boba shop! Can't recommend enough for my poké fans out there. Try the house shōyu and dynamite combo for your bowl 🔥

“I was there to pick up my food, and as always, the food was fantastic! I can always count on them for a delicious meal. However, I had a bit of a disappointing experience with the service this time.

When I arrived, the young lady at the counter seemed a bit off. There was no acknowledgment when I walked in, and when I asked her a question, she didn’t respond with any words—just handed my food to me. It felt a bit cold compared to the usually friendly atmosphere I’m used to there.

I hope this was just a one-time occurrence because I really enjoy their food and the vibe of the place. Looking forward to my next visit, and hopefully, the service will be as warm as the food!“

“We went to this restaurant last night for dinner. The decorations when you come in makes you feel like you are on vacation on the island. The food was amazing (I had the poke bowl). The service was great. And everything in general was perfect. Totally recommend it if you are in the area“

“This place has RUINED all other local chains for me.

I came here for the first time yesterday afternoon (a Saturday) and got a salmon poke bowl. Let me tell you — the *density* of flavor in every bite ?? There’s nothing else like it. Nothing. 294739/10 flavor, gold star, wow

The person who helped me was fast too — very efficient.

My only sad comment is that I went to their website and confirmed that this is their only location…. I live 30 mins away and was only in the area for errands and now I HAVE to go back here because of how *magnificent* what I ate yesterday was.

He also hooked me up, that was a hefty portion of food.

I’m not being dramatic when I say this puts some local chains to shame. Those places are so bland and stingy with the fish (isn’t the fish literally the point?) in comparison.

Parking: Parking was fine, they have a large lot“

“Really nice workers! Great food!!“

“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.“

“I crave this place! I've eaten here using DoorDash and it was still so so good. I love to build my own bowl - choose my base then add all the toppings and sauces. I always pay extra for macaroni salad avocado. Yum! Oh... And don't sleep on the Fruikaki Chex Mix. It's a must have!!“
