First off, I have had one positive experience, but this experience left much to be desired and it…read moredemonstrated a clear lack of care, consistency, consideration, professionalism, pride in the product and just WOW, DISAPPOINTING . To allow a plate to exit your establishment in this CONDITION was unsatisfactory & disappointing. I felt like I got scraps from a trashed kiddie meal, there was no thought given to this. The food was not cooked all the way. Fish was limp. Fish was as small as my thumb. The shrimp were tiny, dry, looked like they'd stayed under lights too long. I mean, the macaroni and rice are pretty simple, you got that in bulk. You can slang that all day. So why didn't anyone take time to AT LEAST make the fish and shrimp shine??? Regardless if the meal is a deal or not, what we receive is a reflection of each person who you touched that plate, WHO SERVED IT AND WHO looked at it, decided it was fine and put it in a bag to be delivered to someone who spent their money for food! Energetically and overall, this was SAD AND unfortunate. I gave my report on Uber already as one star: Maika'i Hawaiian BBQ (10311 North Eldridge) Thank you, Court, for your feedback.

Came at around 2pm on a Sunday and it wasn't very busy at all, but it should've been. The food here…read moreis fantastic!! It took about 15 mins to come out. Everything we had was flavorful, delicious, and all the meat was moist! I can't wait to come back and I'm sad it took me so long to find this place! Highly recommend!! Service was helpful and friendly. The restaurant felt very clean, spacious, and modern with a lot of natural light. They brought our food out to our table and gave us napkins and utensils, so we didn't have to get up and get them ourselves. Absolutely a great dining experience! The portions are also big! My bf and I each got a Hawaiian Favorite combo and couldn't finish them. The entrees are easily two servings for me, so it's a great value! The containers the food comes in are microwavable too, so extra bonus points for easy reheating! If you do manage to finish an entree in one sitting though, you will be stuffed! It wasn't mentioned on the menu, but there's steamed/sautéed cabbage under the meat. It looked a little deceiving because I thought it was just a huge pile of meat, only to find cabbage under. Thankfully, I love cabbage and appreciated that there were veggies to balance the heaviness of all the meat. That being said, there was still a lot of meat, just not as much as it looked like at first. They also give you little containers of sauce depending on which entree you get, which really enhanced the meal. If you get bbq beef or chicken, you get a delicious, sweet, Hawaiian bbq sauce. If you get the chicken katsu, you get a sauce that resembles sweet and sour. If you get a combo that has both bbq meat and chicken katsu, you get both sauces. I poured the sauce over the rice to season the plain white rice, then poured the rest on the meat even though it didn't really need it. BBQ CHICKEN: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in small to large chunks. BBQ BEEF: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in thin slices. CHICKEN KATSU: Moist! Fresh, crunchy breading! Tastes better with the sweet and sour-like sauce provided than on its own. KALBI SHORT RIBS: Delicious! Moist! Has fatty bits, unlike the bbq beef, which I really liked! Very similar, if not the same, flavor as the bbq beef. MACARONI SALAD: Delicious and flavorful! Tastes just like potato salad.

We drive all the way from Pearland to enjoy our favorite dishes: chicken katsu and chicken BBQ…read more Honestly there are places closer to us, that we won't name, but they just don't hit the way Aloha does. Their macaroni salad is absolutely creamy and full of flavor. It tastes so authentic that I always get an extra scoop. We don't mind the drive at all because the food and the service is absolutely worth it. They are always so sweet, attentive and kind. We always dine in and enjoy the decor and the vibe. They have a variety of canned drinks but honestly you have to try the Hawaiian sodas. They have a wide selection but I always get the passionfruit. So delicious and not overly sweet. It's pretty quiet and honestly they should have more dine in business because of how spacious the restaurant is and because of how sweet everyone is. But don't be mistaken, they get plenty of online orders because they are always busy with door dash. We love supporting good businesses and this one is definitely one we love showing support to. So if your looking for some really good food, make the drive to Aloha

The mac salad, which was what I was craving most, was honestly the worst part and one of the worst versions I've had. I'm not a fan overall. To be fair, it was decent value since I got a two-for-one special, so the price helped. But would I go back? Probably not. If I'm going to eat heavier food that isn't exactly healthy, it needs to taste really good, and this just didn't deliver on flavor. If I'm starving, I'd rather wait and get something better.

From the moment I walked in, the girl at the front did not seem friendly or welcoming. I honestly felt uncomfortable even asking for condiments because of the attitude, but I finally did and she still seemed irritated while helping me. The disappointing part is the food itself was actually really good. The spam musubi rolls were a hit with both me and the kids, and the Kalua pork was flavorful and delicious. I hate leaving reviews like this because I know everyone has bad days, but customer service really makes a difference for me. Sadly, I probably won't return based on that experience alone.

Didn't know this place existed, just happened to pass by it one day, so we decided to try it…read more Plenty of parking outside. Nice Hawaiian atmosphere with decor. Soda machine wasn't working and the ice tea was empty. Staff was friendly and let me exchange my ice tea for a canned soda. Took a lil bit for the food to come out. Meat was very flavorful and portion was very generous. Comes with a side of macaroni salad and rice. Spam masubi was on point. Pricey place but the portions are generous. Would recommend to try at least once.

The way you direct yourself towards customers outside the ordering register desk... it's amazing!! You have the customer service lots of places lack!! Honestly, if the owner is seeing this??!! He deserves a raise and much appreciation because he does put value to your place! Now.... The food was good! We had been looking for a Hawaiian bbq place like Cali and we found that Houston had an L&L so YES YES had to go try it out here in Houston!!! I ordered the katsu plate and the bbq ribs plate and ofcourse had to try the musubi chicken!! The katsu chicken is super crispy and the crunch was really good, dip it in the volcano sauce which I mixed with the sweet sauce..forgot the name lol I also ordered passion fruit drink! They were ok, I would love to see chunks of fruit!! Would be amazing The sauces are always great! And one new one we saw and enjoy a lot!! Was the VOLCANO spicy super spicy sauce but loved it, mix it with other sweet sauces and you got a tasty tangy sauce Ambiance is chill, would love to have some background music!!! That would be great!!

This is my 2nd time visiting this cute Hawaiian styled cheese store in Spring…read more They have expanded and still offer free cheese samples and even a few items such as homemade chilled. Cheese on sourdough. The owner is so friendly and she knows customer service, could not resist buying a few Hawaiian items from her . She shared her roots were from Switzerland although she had lived in Hawaii .( hence the name of her shop ). Could feel the Aloha vibes and will return next time in Old Town Spring.

As a true Yelper, the word FREE and SAMPLES always stand out…read more Walking down old spring town and browsing the cute shops, I came across a sign of free cheese samples. As I do enjoy the charcuterie gives I made my way to Big Island little cheese. I was greeted by the sweetest ladies, Monique and Tamara. While other customers finished shopping I browsed @ the store and view all their cute gems. As I make my way to the cashier side Monique offer the cheese samples and they were all delicious. They have soft and hard cheese. Some are unique, all tasty. Smoke Gouda was my fave although it seems like the Wasabi might be the most popular here. They also have delicious and I mean delicious soft serve pineapple ice cream. Has such a delicious pineapple flavor and melts right in your mouth. They even have cheese classes.

My BMP calamansi margarita was distinct in its tanginess. Tried the veggie lumpias and brussel sprouts. The lumpias had tangy dipping sauce that might have been dominated by calamansi. More tang than savory. The brussel sprouts were standard but had a good portion. I tried to detect whether they used fish sauce but I couldn't tell. Ordered the daing na bangus (milkfish) as my entree. They gave me the whole fish and it threw me off that it was mostly deboned since I kept looking for the bones with my tongue and teeth. Fish was nice and crispy and the dipping sauce was more savory than what came with the lumpias. The garlic rice that came with the dish was smoky from that wok hay. Probably could have used a little more soy sauce for flavouring. My favourite dish was the turon dessert (fried bananas) along with the ube ice cream. The coconut sauce they used seemed more like caramel. I haven't eaten much Filipino food so I wasn't sure how authentic the dishes were. I was expecting a little more intensity in the flavours, and I don't know if it was toned down for their customers. There were around ten customers that night. The inside was beautiful and they have a two level patio that is perfect for nights like these. The service was very nice and the kitchen was faster than I expected.

There is a QR code on the table and you go to the counter to order them. Sadly, the drinks were 50/50 on our table. The Spaceship Lullaby and Prickly Pear were misses. The Saturn and Portlight were great. This bar is def. good for a group hang out but it is a little loud. Parking is free but limited out front.

I love chosing busy days and times to try a business, it shows what they can keep in stock, how well they know their community and busy hours. This location at 1:30 (the time we actually got to order) was not sold out of any item on their menu. What we ordered: - Beef Ribs - Glazed Pork Ribs - Sausage Link: regular and cheddar - Brisket (sliced) - Bacon Mac & Cheese - Potato Salad - Duck and Sausage Jambalaya - Peach Cobaker - Banana Pudding over all Review of the whole place, 10/10. Line was organized and had available water for the heat. Servers out to offer beer and water and to pass out menus and explain the process of how this place works. Servers inside were constantly cleaning tables and available to get to go boxes and lids if needed. The meat was literally fall off the bone tender and juicy. Everything was Smokey and flavored wonderfully. My number one: the Mac and cheese! I dont know something about an amazing side took me away. Most places can't do a mac the way i like it, but the cheese stayed moist and creamy and the noodles were tender. the flavor was phenomenal. all of the meats were tender and fall off the bone and juicy. I have no complaints About any bite I took! Other than maybe taking too many bites XD. Would absolutely recommend if your visiting the area or live near by, go get some excellent barbecue.
