Aloha BBQ - Atkins Plate was dynamic and dank; not to mention--Keto af - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

I really want to support this resteraunt but Do not order the Katsu from here, it's the thinnest Katsu I ever had. Try the other Hawaiin bbq spots instead. They were very fast with my order though and location is pretty good. read more

That was short lived! After eating here a second time I'm dropping my rating to a 3. This is a new Hawaiian BBQ restaurant located directly across the street from the Safeway supermarket near Geneva and Mission Streets. I was just walking by on my way to run some errands and was actually thinking about Hawaiian plate lunch but at another establishment further down the street. The menu here is much larger than my intended lunch spot with a wide assortment of Hawaiian BBQ lunch plates, Chinese and Hawaiian appetizers, musubi, barbecue bowls, burgers, saimin noodles or chow mein and more. In fact, it took me awhile to read through the menu and decide what I wanted to try. For my first order here I had the Hawaiian BBQ Beef (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aloha-bbq-san-francisco-2?select=Opv9Llb5YwassYMNQo6Pdw#o-UR9pT5o5E_9tsaeA2VsA) plate. It is the standard combination of sweet marinated beef on top of a pile of shredded cabbage with two scoops of steamed white rice and a scoop of macaroni salad. It was quite good and very filling with the beef being leaner than most that I have had at other Hawaiian BBQ restaurants. My second visit began very annoyingly as the cash register attendant obviously did not understand his job very well. He did not know what was on the menu and how to input the items into the cash register repeatedly having to run to the back of the restaurant for assistance. I ordered 2 items and a soda and it took almost 10 minutes. The food delivery remained very fast however. Their Chef's Curry Chicken Wings (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aloha-bbq-san-francisco-2?select=Opv9Llb5YwassYMNQo6Pdw#qjvopSQ3SXhYTPsXZlqAFg) had a faint scent of curry and absolutely zero curry flavor. The wings were not plucked clean and chicken hairs were highly visible on several of the wings. The exterior was hot and crispy but the wing had very little flavor. I also ordered the Loco Moco (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aloha-bbq-san-francisco-2?select=Opv9Llb5YwassYMNQo6Pdw#Opv9Llb5YwassYMNQo6Pdw). Here they ask you how you'd like your eggs prepared, but since the worker couldn't figure out the cash register system I ended up ordering my eggs over medium. The burgers are not hand formed like my usual Hawaiian place but more like the frozen beef patties you'd find in a supermarket freezer. The gravy was very salty. They have a big refrigerator full of sodas, water or juice. You order at the counter and your meal is ready in less than 10 minutes. Everything is served in compostable take-out containers with non compostable forks and knives. There is plenty of seating for up to 49 persons. There is currently one TV with a mounting rack next to it that I'm assuming will have another TV attached to it soon. Open daily 9:30 AM to 10:00 PM. Credit cards are accepted, but there is a $3 minimum. They do catering and they have delivery with a $20 minimum. read more

Was craving some good, savory, salty food, and what better way to satisfy this than through Hawaiian food, right? I had a special deal with DoorDash in that I got free delivery, and decided to give this place a shot. Food arrived quickly (I'll give my DoorDash deliverer and Aloha BBQ equal credit for this), which was a plus. I ordered a mini Garlic Fish with Brown Rice and Tossed Salad for $7, while my dad got a Spam Musubi for $2. The pros: Good portion for a mini, lots of garlic on the white fish, which was cooked well and was offered in generous portions throughout the dish. Also, props to them for offering brown rice! The cons: "Tossed" salad was literally just pieces of lettuce (as opposed to macaroni salad, but that's to be expected when you're going healthier), and for some reason, there was this icky, thick oil that covered the bottom of the container. It got on the lettuce and the rice, and while the dish tasted good, the oil turned me off a ton. Knocking off 2 stars for that. Dad reported that his spam musubi was alright (not really sure how you can mess that up, though), but when there's other options closer to me for Hawaiian food that I've had no qualms about, I think I'll skip Aloha BBQ next time. read more

Aloha BBQ - Mini Garlic Fish with Brown Rice (extra $0.50) & Tossed Salad - Hawaiian Near Me - San Francisco, California

We order delivery from here through Uber Eats every now and then, it's always a decent meal. It can be slightly hit or miss with the quality -- for example sometimes it's a little greasier and the meat at times is more fat than protein. I recommend the BBQ Mix Plate: Barbecue beef, short ribs, and chicken, with Macaroni Salad and white rice. Pricing is reasonable. read more

I called and ordered for pick-up: mini plate of chicken katsu and regular bbq short ribs. The woman who took my order said "okay" and was just about to hang up. I asked when it would be ready and she said 5 minutes. Wow, fast I thought and she's really eager to cook my order. We picked up the food which was ready when we got there. Upon opening the boxes, the meats didn't look so good, and appeared to be cooked much earlier than when we placed our order. The katsu didn't have that crispy fresh fried look and when biting into the pieces, the batter was not crunchy whatsoever and the batter was falling off the chicken. The ribs were so thin and while they had good flavor, it was missing that slight char. Also, the mac salad was just bland. Overall, a disappointing meal. read more

I don't do this too often, but I'm finished with this place. NEVER AGAIN. The people on the phone have a hard time understanding you over the phone (either the place is too loud and/or a communication barrier). You have to shout at them and repeat your info at least 3 times. I'm told 30-45 mins over the phone, and they usually come in 1 hour. I'm about 2 miles from the restaurant. Why? Last straw? The delivery guy was late (as always) and incredibly rude this time. I answer the phone to him yelling "Your food is here! Open the door!" I sprint to my door feeling bad that I've made him wait so long, and the guy is in his car across the street. Then takes his sweet time strolling over. I sign quietly, say thank you and close the gate. Within 1 minute, the guy calls me back yelling (AGAIN!) "You forgot delivery tip!" First of all, there's no delivery charge because you make people spend at least 20$. Second, no, I didn't forget (I'm usually an excellent/over-tipper because I know what it's like to work in the food industry). You were late and rude. Then he shouts obscenities at me. BYE FELIPE. Hence the NEVER AGAIN. read more

So glad I came across this place on yelp! One of the yummiest Hawaiian BBQ joints my boyfriend and I have had!!! I got the A4 half BBQ short ribs and half garlic shrimp and my boyfriend got the loco moco. My combo dish was just amazing! Great BBQ flavor on the short ribs, but that garlic shrimp though!!! On point!! I've had a garlic shrimp dish in Hawaii and it was not like how I imagined, it was just straight up shrimp swimming in butter, disgusting!! (no, I didn't get to try the shrimp trucks there, yet). But anyways, Aloha BBQ, you can taste the garlic, greasy but not too greasy and the green onions gives it a nice flavor. I just wish they didnt give such a little amount of shrimp because I had to savor these!!! I thought they were that good! Le boyfriend's loco moco was the first I ever tasted and it was delicious! (I only had one bite) but the egg was nicely cooked!! And the plate itself was presented nicely! Its just a really heavy meal to have in the late morning. Both he and I agreed my plate was the one to get. Overall, my boyfriend and I are very happy we have a new joint to eat at where its hellla clean, reminds us of Hawaii a little, affordable and better yet, has great food!!! We will definitely be coming back!! Keep up the great work Aloha BBQ! read more

I got a takeout from here despite the mixed reviews. I still wanted to give it a try and I'm glad I did! To each their own. While some said the food is ok, others really like it. For me, I'm not amazed but I thought it was good casual food for a weekday delivery or takeout. Not to mention, the portions are generous! Please don't ever change that! Please continue to give generous portions!!! I got the combo with bbq chicken, beef, and short ribs. Instead of getting rice, I substituted with salad. When I got my food, I was actually pretty disappointed that it wasn't salad. It was just iceberg lettuce. I don't even know if it was seasoned. It felt like just eating lettuce but luckily the flavors from the meat made it taste better. I've also tried their friend chicken with gravy and man, that's the one that hits the spot. Comfort food! So bad yet so good. Overall, I like it for just a quick takeout for when I don't have food in the fridge or when I'm bored of cooked meals. read more

I ordered the half and half plate of short ribs and katsu for $10.71. (A bit pricier than the Hawaii Drive Inn) two blocks away. I waited inside and the good smell of Hawaiian BBQ did not waft. The interior felt artificial. When I received my food, I asked for hot sauce and they gave it to me in the form of packets. (Yuck) I got in my car and gave the katsu a bite. Flavorless breading. I bit the macaroni salad and it was too sour. The macaroni salad did not balance the katsu. The short ribs were already cut (aesthetically I do not prefer that unless this was k bbq). The katsu sauce is a saving grace. But knowing that a better place is down the street, I know where I will keep on going. read more

Can I get back my $24.57? I made an order on January 1st. The order went through and money was deducted from my bank account, but a few minutes later a lady called me to say they had no driver to go out and deliver. Afterwards I tried contacting both the restaurant and E24. Restaurant told me to call E24 and E24 told me to call the restaurant. Won't be ordering for delivery from here again, I rather pick up instead... read more

Okay, so I just moved and tried this place for delivery. This is the best Hawaiian food I've had outside of Hawaii. I was wondering why anyone would order the "mini" plates, but the regular was a ton of food! I got the teriyaki chicken and it was 6 pieces of thigh meat, enough for 2 nights (well, I had to make more rice). It was perfectly cooked and seasoned, not too much or too little sauce. Macaroni salad is just okay, but the rest is so good I didn't even care (and I LOVE macaroni salad). I've since ordered another few times and they have been consistent. read more

I went in to get some food. The older woman and the younger woman were really cold and rude. The combo fried rice was terrible. They ( staff) really need to treat their customers with respect and kindness. That type of service was not welcoming. I will not eat there again. read more

Yo the best Hawaiian I've ever had. I think i messed with them chain ones too much . This food tasted home cooked and much flavor. Musubi is the bomb! read more

I got delivery from here for a weekday lunch. Delivery was right on time, and service was good. Everything was delivered hot. However the food was just Meh. I got the BBQ Mix Plate, Musubi Combo, Manapua. The bbq was a just a little flavorless, and bland, and the meat itself was overcooked and quite chewy. The musubi were great, flavorful and quite big as well. The Manapua was TERRIBLE. The outside bun portion was hard like it was previously frozen and then dried out in the microwave. The filling was meh and kind of just tasted like sugar. DON'T GET THE MANAPUA. Overall, there's better Hawaiian places out there, might as well check out the Hawaiian Drive in instead. read more

How on earth that I haven't left any review here? I've been ordering delivery from this place since 2016. My always go-to is Chicken Katsu. Very tasty. They are nice to give me extra katsu sauce whenever I ask. My eating habit is to soak whatever meat with sauces. It usually takes about 40 mins to deliver to my place yet the chicken is always crunchy, soft from the inside and super delicious. Of course, there is a hit and miss some time. Well, they are not a five star Michelin restaurant so it is forgivable. Other dishes I have tried are veggies rolls, pot stickers (pretty much same as frozen dishes); combination fried rice (quite good); seafood fried rice (average); pork chop over rice; pork katsu (prefer the chicken more). A great place for a quick fix, affordable and good services read more

Came here for the first time couple days ago with my brother. It was pretty dead when we came. There was couple other customers but left after we order food. This place has good selection of food to choose from based on the big menu board that they display on the wall by the tv. Things we got were: Bbq Chicken plate, regular size for about $7.25. The portion they give you is good amount. Taste wise, its average. Beef kebob for 1.25. It was tasty. Maybe cause this place was still new, the guy who was getting out order took forever to figure out what section the beef kebob until the woman worker had to help him. Maybe cause he probably usually does the delivery than the cashier. The prices for the food we got are not bad. Your average place for hawaiian food Service was slow...there wasnt no one else other than my brother and i. A place like this should be able to make their quick even when there wasnt any other customers. It was like their phone line was more busier from those who wanted to do pick up or delivery Place is clean and has plenty of spaces to sit I am nice enough to give this place a three stars read more

My husband and i usually like coming here but never again! There was a cockroach in his macaroni!!!. We ordered take out so we didn't notice until we got home.

We didn't resolve anything because she didn't believe me. read more

After coming here multiple times, it's time I update my review. Came in to order a eat-in Chicken Katsu. The person whom placed the order for me wore a black jacket with a grey cap was wonderful. Order was placed fast and my food came within minutes. The food is still good and authentic! Very tasty and crispy. Rice tastes really really good and the portions of Chicken are magnificent! Made me happy and full after almost finishing the meal. They accept Visa, Master, Discover & American Express too. Makes it convenient for a person like me to use cards without any hassle or fuss. Good part was that you get a free water cup too! Overall, great service and great food. Coming back here again for sure! read more

They were tying to charge me $25 more than what my bill was suppose to be lucky I noticed before they charged me. They said it's happened a lot and they usually catch it. . I called to get help with my order because it wasn't made right, the owner SHERRY (she's very ill mannered) decided to argue with me for about 15 minutes about how people make mistakes and how they they are training a the cashier which isn't my problem. She asked me to send pictures my food and only wanted to compensate me the amount that was in the picture. This unexperienced girl said "Ok I'll give u new wings, ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? " The Customers always right! -Customer service 101. You lost recurring money over $8 and poor training Obviously all the staff needs training! read more

It is definitely better then the average "low quality" Hawaiian bbq like L&ls , better quality then that. Prices were reasonable, tonight I ordered from Uber eats, delivery was fast and the food was still hot, I definitely recommend this over L&l's Hawaiian BBQ. read more

Maybe they have a new cook but the hamburger steak was tough to eat , looks like it was overcook

I would've scored them zero stars...Not what I had expected, their aloha bbq taste water down, nothing special to their Mac-Salad . Nothing authentic to real Local Hawaiian style bbq... their menu is all over the place! Don't waste time trying it, if you're Polynesian... save your money and go to L&L's or Hawaiian-Drive inn. read more

Excellent chicken Katsu, macaroni salad and grilled chicken.

So my hubby and I ordered for delivery a few weekends ago. It was so yummy and fast delivery. I had Chicken BBQ he had Chicken Katsu! I was really hesitant since we could easily go pick up food from our favorite L.L. But it was cold outside and we wanted to make it a romantic night indoors! So glad we found this place it's was delicious, fast and the portions are huge for the price you pay. Sad part is now we moved to Daly City so we cannot enjoy our Hawaiian BBQ delivery service from Aloha anymore. However if we are ever back in my old stomping grounds we know where to go for good grub! side note: the popcorn chicken is worth adding onto your meal! It's really tasty! read more

This bbq is run a by super cute family! The staff is very kind although they don't speak English well. The portions are very generous and price is cheap. I suggest the short ribs and the bbq chicken.... heck get this combo! You won't regret!!! read more

I usually come here often and get good service when the regular, professional lady Karen is the cashier. My order comes out perfect each time. Unfortunately last night the newer young lady "Ting" was the cashier and ... 1. Waited longer for my order (over 15 min). 2. Noticed my order was wrong when I got home. 3. Was short changed $5. I'm not sure if it was deliberate but I do know that it is bad business to short change $$$ a regular customer. Tip: Watch out for the new workers. read more

We placed an order for Spam Musubi for a Christmas Party and paid $44.99 for 40 Servings. You would think that 40 servings meant 40 pieces, nope - wrong. They said 1 piece of musubi is meant for 2 servings. I'm confused. We also called to pick up by 5PM and when we get there, they said they didn't have the order. And then they said they would make it. Which took an additional 30-40 minutes. What's the point of false advertising and placing orders in advanced? I would rather go to L&L, Ono's Hawaiian, or Hawaiian Drive-in. Would 100% not place a catering order through phone OR online, actually don't get anything catered from them. read more

I ordered the seafood combo plate with short ribs plus a spam musubi for $14 altogether The seafood portion was good although a little small portioned. The short ribs were a complete disappointer. The taste was right, but the meat was tough and chewy plus super small portions, a lot of bone with only a little meat. The plate had two huge scoops of rice and only a tiny scoop of macaroni salad. Spam musubi was delicious. I've only ever gotten their food delivered so I've never been the the place. read more

I had a friend post a negative review about these guys under my profile which I had deleted. She was mad at the driver for just honking repeatedly when he comes up to deliver, then laughing in her face when she asked him not to do that... Only to do it again next time. I live onsite of my business... Last night my landlord/boss was pissed off as he was doing the same thing. Honk honk honk honk, instead of just calling. She's sick of hearing it every time i order (which is a lot). Now I can't order delivery from my favorite delivery place in SF unless she is out of town AND we are closed for business since the guy is literally just honking his horn outside a business and other people's residences. Thanks for ruining it delivery driver. /s it's such a shame. I just checked and I ordered here 62 times in the last 10 months. That's about $1,800 of Hawaiian food in under a year. I mean, shit. Thanks for saving me the money driver, but I obviously would prefer the food over the savings. I get cultural differences. I've lived in China myself, and some yelpers are obviously racist with their comments and impatient with language barriers. The beautiful woman behind the counter is great. The young guy behind the counter is very nice. The bigger fellow who delivers sometimes in the red vehicle is a really great guy. Super good guy! I don't want to stop eating Aloha, I just literally cannot order here anymore without risking my livelihood. Or I'd have to call and see who is delivering first and that's just awkward... I'm super bummed Still delicious enough and a good enough deal to deserve 5 stars, even though I can't order here any more :-( Don't get me wrong, you should all still order Aloha. It's seriously the bomb.com. just don't expect any sort of reasonable level of politeness from the delivery guy. read more

This place is great and i usually order here once or twice a month. The cost:size:taste ratio is the best in the city i have found so far. Here are my only qualms. -the minimum amount for ordering is $20 with a $1 delivery. Due to such affordable prices, i have to order like two entrées and an appetizer to meet the minimum. If they could lower the minimum to like $15, OR put more side items on the menu. read more

Lady that works there is really rude. Food is ok, but it's over priced. Portions are alright, but wouldn't recommend the place.
