Kiawe Island Bistro is a small, welcoming restaurant with Hawaiian music playing. The teriyaki chicken bowl and musubi are popular choices, with perfectly cooked chicken and tasty teriyaki sauce. The spam musubi is a highlight, tightly wrapped in seaweed. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring orders are correct, and the atmosphere is clean and inviting. The head chef provides consistent, amazing food that often makes guests want seconds and thirds. Dishes like the Loco Moco and Kalua Pig are flavorful and generously portioned, giving a true taste of Hawaii in Vancouver. Customers enjoy the friendly service, great music, and delicious food, making it a top spot for Hawaiian and local cuisine. Recent reviews mention the Furikake garlic chicken as bomb with an awesome fry and beautiful sauce that is not too salty or sweet. The grilled Japolo chicken is perfectly juicy with a nice char, and many fans love the island BBQ, lechon, and chicken teriyaki special, praising the outstanding dishes across the menu. The service is some of the friendliest around, and eating here often feels like being back on Oahu, thanks to the delicious food and welcoming atmosphere. Visitors also recommend trying the Shoyu chicken, which is described as fantastic, and appreciate the staff’s willingness to customize orders, such as adding extra avocado to Poké bowls.
