    Three words. Broke Da Mouth. Ono grinds. Good grub! Friendly staff. Small venue. Order from cashier and they bring the food out to you. I loved the island jams they were playing. Made me feel like I was in Hawaii. Definitely check out this spot! Garlic chicken fo sho!

    Combo with kalua and garlic chicken
    Jason C.

    Love the food here. I ordered the kalua cabbage and spicy garlic chicken combo. I really love that they substituted steamed veggies instead of rice. The kalua was flavorful and juicy. The smoke wasn't super strong. The garlic chicken wasn't spicy at all but it was tender and crispy on the outside. Over all I thought it was a great value. Food was great and service was excellent.

    Love the food here - check out the specials - great central location, awesome staff, nice outdoor patio with tvs - lots of seating and parking is right outside! The food is savory and really good! Plus priced right

    Garlic chicken & seared tuna plate
    Caroline L.

    Quick easy lunch or dinner spot bringing the spirit of the aloha state. It's conveniently located near Costco and a ton of stores on St. Rose parkway. They're consistent and quality is always good and fresh with flavorful dishes. We really like the variety of combo plates and the Hawaiian drinks which are so fun to choose from! I discovered a new drink I've never seen before called green tea lychee. I highly recommend the garlic chicken as one of your plate options that's flavorful and downright addictive. Service is friendly and efficient, and even ordering on DoorDash is easy. Overall the authentic flavors in a chill island setting is comforting and relaxing with a sip of Hawaiian Sun. Recommended Food: - Plate - Garlic chicken & seared tuna are my 2 choices that comes with rice and macaroni salad

    Super awesome staff! So kind and great when I had questions about the menu. Ramen was great and so was the poke bowls. Will be coming again!

    Staff are little pushy and seemed rush but I'm sure that's helpful during lunch rush. There is a huge menu and shared space with bowlogy so poke, and açaí options as well as the grill options. I had the bbq salmon and it came with three sides. Huge portions, could've easily shared with someone. Huge Hawaiian canned drink selection as well. The inside is a modern trendy vibe, clean space, with a lot of seating.

    Garlic Chicken Plate

    Second visit to the 9th Island Grill, and we were much happier than our first visit! Still got carry out food, but much happier with the choices and results! The staff continues to be amazing - friendly and helpful! This time we tried the Garlic chicken plate - crispy and very tasty. The garlic sauce can be a little sweet for our taste, but the chicken itself was great; and the extra crispy chicken skin makes this dish! Also got the Loco Moco - the eggs don't travel great all the way home, but the dish is very tasty and serving size is huge! Lastly we tried the Tonkatau Ramen - this was good even taking it home! Definitely have more dishes we want to try, but the service and food we reckon this trip makes us want to go back soon!

    Loco Moco Plate
    Debrah D.

    Visited again on a Sunday night to give it another shot as Josh invited us back to make things right. We decided to dine in and got the chicken katsu, seared ahi tuna plate, tonkatsu ramen and the loco moco along with 5 Hawaiian Sun drinks. My kiddo was bummed as the egg on his loco moco was already cracked. Doesn't matter to me but it may for others as it did for him. Other than that, my kid enjoyed the loco moco and I liked the roasted garlic garnish. My partner said his ahi tuna steak was stringy and didn't enjoy it. I thought it was alright and quite enjoyed the tangy flavored mustard dip. The rice was dry but not hard like last time. The tonkatsu ramen was flavorful and they give a good amount of chasu but the meat was tougher than I like. My other kiddo finally got to enjoy the chicken katsu and said it was good but thought the katsu sauce was ketchup. Our free entrees that Josh comped us were the chicken katsu and loco moco. Thanks for making it right, Josh! The dining room was clean and the two servers were friendly. We noticed that most parties coming in were getting açaí bowls. Maybe we'll stick to the chicken katsu, loco moco and try açaí bowls next time.

    We normally get Wills from a different location in Henderson but sometimes I don't pay attention…read moreand order from this location instead. It doesn't really matter because the food is good at both locations (this one is just slightly further than the other one is for us.) Wills makes me really nostalgic because this is what plate lunch tasted like when I was a kid, growing up in Hawaii. Don't get me wrong, the places with the new trends and flashy food are great but sometimes you just want good food and a memory and Wills will definitely give you that. I appreciate that they have sales a lot. I love when they do buy one, get one with musubi. If you're lucky they do this deal with the chicken musubi too (my husband doesn't eat pork.) The food may take a bit longer to come out but they make everything fresh. The serving sizes are large (even if you get a mini) for the price point and I love that. The shop itself is clean and the menu is nicely organized and easy to read.

    I'm just going to say it upfront, this place is not about aesthetics at all…read more The inside is a little run down, nothing curated or "cute" about it. I even noticed small drips on the wall that looked like sauce stains, so yeah...not the kind of spot you come to for ambiance. BUT. The food? Absolutely makes up for it. I saw a steady stream of DoorDash drivers coming in and out the entire time, which already told me this place is popular for a reason and after eating, I get it. The food is really good. Like, seasoned all the way through, flavorful, not dry, not bland everything just hits. The chicken was juicy and tender with that perfect grilled flavor, and the portions are generous. The rice was fluffy, the mac salad was creamy and balanced, and everything together just felt like a solid, satisfying plate. No shortcuts, no watered down flavor, just good food done right. Vegas has a LOT of Hawaiian BBQ spots, but hands down...this is one of the best, if not the best I've had out here. So yeah, don't come here expecting vibes. Come here because you want a plate that's actually worth your money.

Place is showing zero pride. This was our favorite go to spot off strip that we visit every time we come to Vegas and that we recommend to everyone. This trip I brought my mother and bragged about it on our drive. She refused to order anything there as soon as we walked in. So there were No ribs today and they don't know when or if another location they will have them?? Spam musubi is premade but did not look great once opened. My son took one bite and said it was disgusting- No musubi sauce and tasted like it has been sitting for a while. Like just make them fresh if they're gonna sit all day. I also decided to haphazardly order a very sad and pathetic side of Mac salad that didn't taste like anything. 2 OG musubi and a side of Mac salad for $11 that went straight into the garbage. We Debated coming back on a different day on this LV trip to see if it's an off day but not sure I can after seeing how dirty it was and that they are ok to sell crap to loyal customers. This is so sad and disappointing! Hope they can bounce back because the food truly was so awesome.

Everything that we have tried was perfection!!! We have got the Wagyu Menchi Katsu Burger, which comes with fries in the cute little tower. Great presentation. It was delicious, very flavorful. Katsu is very tasty, nice texture, and good quality meat. Their Katsu's are crispy, tender, and cooked to perfection, but my favorites on the menu are : the katsu curry and the menchi katsu burger-both packed with incredible flavor. It's a MUST TRY! Overall: Pricing is reasonable for the portions and quality. Staff are very courteous and hospitable. Highly recommend Kiyoshi Katsu House for anyone craving high-quality, authentic Japanese comfort food! Thank you Chef Mark for this wonderful dining experience!

Here's why this ended up being a one-star experience for us: They call themselves "Manila BBQ," but there was no barbecue available. They also advertise as a seafood grill, yet there were no seafood options during our visit. There's a $4 upcharge for lechon belly, but no other pork dishes were offered--no pork adobo, no lechon kawali. If you're charging extra for a premium item, there should at least be other standard pork options included. So instead of 20 dollars it was was $24 per person.  Drinks are not included in the $24 price. Overall, the food quality was mediocre and didn't justify the cost. There's an automatic service charge of 18% for a party of plus an additional 3% credit card fee. We don't mind paying more for good food and a satisfying experience, but this just didn't deliver.
