Huge portions. Really solid Katsu. My wife and I shared and still had leftovers. Super friendly staff and good service. The pea salad side was super fun and hadn't had something like that before. Get extra spicy sauce! read more

This used to be a great place to eat. No more. Rice must have been made yesterday as it was hard from being old. They then used that rice to make the spam musubi and used on one other spam small plate. It was just gross. Mac salad recipe has also changed and had more runny mayo than pasta. On top of all of the bad food the prices were too high. $66 for 5 spam musubi and 2 small plates.... read more

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY The place was very unsanitary looking and feeling, no one used gloves to prepare the food and the chicken was rather chewy. The other reviews really played me, I was expecting some good hawaiian bbq and was very disappointed, couldn't even eat the meal. It looks extremely unappetizing. Also the prices were insane for the amount of food you receive. To add positivity, the white rice was good. read more

Holy crap, I used to love this place but prices are out of control! A half plate of teriyaki beef and large soda was almost $24! And, it wasn't exactly amazing, and neither was the customer service. I've been going for many years, but this was the last time. read more

Aloha Island Grill - Menu - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

I moved away from Spokane to the east coast in 2018 but I still dream of aloha island grill every day. They only have one single hawaiian bbq place in the DMV(and it recently opened) called l&l hawaiian. It doesn't even come close to comparing. The only other 'hawaiian' spots are just poke bowl places that don't count. I wish this place would get big enough to spread throughout the country because it would be very popular here! The kahlua pork and teriyaki chicken were the best and I tend to be picky about fatty weird pieces in meat. What really made this place special was the big portions for a lower cost, the fact the food was made in a tiny little drive thru hut in a parking lot, and they have the BEST options for sides. Sides usually are a hit or miss with me but the hawaiian peas and mac salad was always amazing. Whenever I see that one of my friends is stopping by Spokane I always recommend it. My favorite drive thru food place in the world 10/10 recommend don't ever change !! read more

Went to the Aloha Grill on Francis tonight. I ordered the Mac Salad to be "on the side". Not as a side because my son is allergic. Like it can't be in the same container. When we pulled up it was all in one. I asked her if we could put it into a separate box. the young lady at the window told me there's nothing she can do to put it on the side. I got the confusion but then she became really rude to me and shut the window on me. I didn't ask for a "side of Mac salad", I asked for it "on the side" somebody needs to educate the servers. And for $20, we literally had one tiny little thing of chicken and the rest was rice and macaroni. Completely disappointed. I've been going to this place for years, but this was a horrible experience. Won't be going back. read more

I decided to give it a second chance but change location. I've tried both and they all have managed to burn the beef. To the point you can't even eat majority of it. Ordered a big plate thankfully I Checked my food in the car to see I was missing my macaroni salad and had to go back won't be back! Great customer service but just not for me. read more

I currently live in Hawaii. I have searched high low for a Mac salad as good as Aloha grill in Spokane. Confused as hell how Spokane has the best Hawaiian Mac salad I've ever had in my life - but I can't deny it . 10 stars. Would do filthy things for the Mac salad . read more

Food was pretty solid. Ordered and by the time we got there (12 mins away) our order was ready to go. Definitely don't eat in since there's basically only tables outside and it's in kinda a rough part of town, but take out was great and the guy who made our food was super friendly. read more

Food is fine, I like the convince and how fast the food is ready. Not the best teriyaki I've had but totally not the worst. I personally enjoy the char on some of the chicken, it's not too overwhelming and gives it a smokey flavor. The white rice was a bit mushy like it was cooked with too much water. Mac salad was fine but the potato bits were kinda frozen. It's okay for a togo quick bite that isn't exactly fast food. Service is what it is, you can tell they're busy and probably don't want to be there. Not much ambiance as it's a little shack and made for Togo lol read more

The cleanliness of the establishment had me a little worried but thought we'd give it the benefit of the doubt. Bad decision! Do NOT waste your money here. The prices are high and the food is terrible! Our teriyaki chicken was burned so bad most the chicken couldn't be eaten. read more

Aloha Island Grill - #2 Small Teriyaki Chicken Plate Lunch - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

A bit pricey for overall experience. Small establishment but the food was decent and wasn't a long wait. Wouldn't go out of my way for the grindz. read more

I'm not sure how people can give this place 1 star. It is by far the best! The service was amazing! We make it a point to stop every time we are in town! Best teriyaki ever! Try it with the garlic sauce, it's fire!! Keep up the great work! read more

Eeewww. The place was filthy. I don't know how long it had been since they cleaned their grill. I could taste it in the food. We ordered one beef and one teriyaki bowl. It came in an 8oz cardboard soup container. After we payed, we were told it would be 8-10 mins for beef. We waited outside because of the strange odor emanating from the establishment. When I got it home, it was dry and overcooked or mixed with burnt remnants from the grill. Overpriced and gross. $23+ for 16 oz of food that was majority rice. Won't be returning!! Check their health score. Less than stellar. read more

The food, overcooked, should not be called although grill should be called the messy grill. The service is done by a bunch of guys that are unshaven and look like they're clean the ambience. There's none walk-in outside eating. I couldn't believe the place. read more

Disappointing. The Mac salad is just macaroni and mayonnaise. I ordered teriyaki beef and there was no teriyaki? Just beef. This is the first yelp review I've ever written this is how disappointing it was. Ino loa read more

We had the #2 Small Teriyaki Chicken Plate Lunch with Hawaiian Macaroni Salad. So delicious. Add a little lava sauce and you won't regret it! So good. This local is pick up only in cold weather months. If both of us are there, we can get the large and split it. I usually will get an extra Mac salad if we are splitting. read more

Aloha Island Grill - #2 Small Teriyaki Chicken Plate Lunch with Hawaiian Macaroni Salad. - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

First of all, this place is so DIRTY!! I put my hand on the table and it's sticky, same with the chairs. I can only imagine what the kitchen is like. Second of all, we called to place a group order and were quoted one price. Then when we called to confirm on the day of, they recommended that we change the order from two clamshells to one pan because it would be cheaper. Okay, sounds great. When we picked it up, the one pan was almost FOUR TIMES THE ORIGINAL COST. Why on earth did they recommend that we change our order to make it "cheaper"? Unfortunately, my dad picked it up and paid, not knowing we were quoted MUCH less at the beginning and they didn't do anything to remedy the issue. read more

I hadn't been to Aloha Grill in awhile and it sounded good. Their Teriyaki Chicken rice bowl is tasty. And I always recommend the macaroni salad - delicious! Their Katsu Chicken and Spam Fried Rice are also really good. They also have a breakfast menu and I've been wanting to try the Loco Moco. Their several other breakfast options as well. Two convenient locations - one on Monroe and one on Francis. read more

DELICIOUS. I have been going to Aloha for years and I was heartbroken when I saw all of the horrible reviews saying how it's changed and isn't as good... WRONG. I went last night and I can still say this is one of my favorite guilty pleasures. FOOD - I get the regular plate with chicken teriyaki & Mac salad. YUM. This is the most tender, delicious chicken. Some of my rice was slightly mooshy, but I think it's just from sitting in the sauce & I may have gotten the end of the batch, it was still delicious. My fiancé got the Katsu chicken w/Mac salad which he said was yummy too. Also highly recommend the lava sauce. AMBIENCE / STAFF- look people, this is not fine dining haha. It's a grab and go, small, hole in the wall spot. Don't expect a 5 star experience haha. The staff was honestly a little rude on the phone, but when we got there they were both really nice and had our order ready right away. PRICE- my biggest qualm is the price. It's pretty expensive for a take out place, but considering you get enough for 2-3 meals and inflation it's not the worst. Overall, I always enjoy my meal from aloha and I will keep coming back!! (: read more

Adorable tiny place at Monroe location. Outdoor seating. Friendly staff. Teriyaki chicken had good flavor but had been over cooked and was dry. The Mac salad was okay, but I make it better... mayo, apple cider vinegar, sugar, grated carrots. The rice was sticky, and mushy. Ick. Oh, and the pea salad with cashews? There was not one cashew in it. read more

Girl in the front with glasses was rude and was no help when I asked about the menu since I've never tried it and to top it off she had lice in her hair the kitchen was filthy and disgusting. They were on their phones instead of cleaning up. They guy cooking was friendly though read more

Terrible and rude service. They dot have their menu up to date and overcharge you for a described plate but then tell you the sides are not included as pictured. When asking about it they tell you theres nothing they can do after you already paid them. Not even a solution was offered. I wouldnt order from here again. read more

Paid $23! Super skimpy on the chicken. Basically paid for macaroni salad and rice. I order the larger portion and it was only two tiny chicken thighs. read more

Aloha Island Grill - Great food but ridiculously skimped on the chicken. Paid $23 for the large portion and only got only got two tiny chicken thighs - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

Ordered teriyaki chicken. Flavor was "ok" but when I pulled out a large piece of chicken skin, and then another smaller piece of skin, both part of the entree, I lost my appetite. Prices reasonable and serving size ample, service efficient, no indoor dining you either take home or eat at a picnic table outside restaurant. In fairness the description says delivery or takeout. I give a zero on ambiance picnic table in a dusty parking lot next to busy street. read more

Aloha Island grill is my favorite place to spoil myself with. Their food is absolutely delicious, and while the prices are a bit steep, I personally think it's worth it. My favorite is the teriyaki chicken, with white rice, macaroni salad, and extra of their (delicious) teriyaki sauce. Service is very friendly whenever I go. I so recommend dropping by for lunch whenever you can. read more

Average Hawaiian food, the meat could have been flavored more but was alright for a delivery meal. The macaroni needed extra salt and pepper added at home for flavor. read more

Someone needs to update their menu, prices have gone up A LOT since the menu was posted. Didn't realize it until we left and looked at the receipt ... I was so excited to eat some familiar dishes from back home but it wasn't even close to local Hawaii food! Rice was mushy and watery, premade patties for the loco moco, high prices and little meat.. Plate was mostly filled with rice and Mac salad. Chicken katsu was more like chicken bites, over cooked and hard when you bite into it, kalua was really salty teriyaki chicken was shredded. I'll never go back and feel like we wasted $100 for 3 plates and 1 side.. read more

this location recently failed a Heath inspection for rat poop in the basement where all the food is kept, none of the employees have food handlers certification. The walls are peeling off. From my experience, both Aloha Grill locations are far from sanitary, and is a red flag for the Heath district. food poisoning calls are nothing new for the manager, bill. save yourself the visit and the stomach ache. read more

Aloha Island Grill - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

I wanted to love this place, heard great things, but I have tried it a couple times now and it's ok for my taste buds. If I'm in the area and want an island fix, I would stop. I'm just driving out of my way to go there. Pulled pork was dry each time, the sauces helped, but I'm kind of purist when it comes to pulled pork and don't want the sauce to take over the pork flavor. Again it's good, would eat there again, but wouldn't go out of my way...hope that makes sense to y'all! read more

We love going here only stipulation is they're not open for lunch. Which I love a good lunch spot this would be it.

I know this place has been loved in the past so I decided to try it. When I walked in, I couldn't believe how grungy the place was. The one worker that handled the food had dirty clothes on and had no sign of any sanitation anywhere. It was disgusting. I proceeded to order food but couldn't even eat it after seeing the conditions inside. Eat at your own risk read more

I thought it was pretty gosh dang good. I got the katsu catsu fried chicken plate, Mac salad and rice. Didn't disappoint whatsoever- in fact it was pretty Fn good imho. I will be back . read more

I love the mac salad. I think the teriyaki chicken is overly sweet and the garlic chicken needs to have more garlic flavor. The portions are huge, which is a plus. Overall I would come back for the mac salad. read more

Great spot for some take out!! Staff is very friendly, food is fast and so tasty! I'd highly recommend anyone to come try it out!

This place is AWFUL. It's not very clean and the service is terrible. This food is not even close to real Hawaiian food and it's SO expensive. Do not go here if you're looking for real Hawaiian food. The macaroni salad and pork are a joke. read more

The children probably have cooked. Most employees would rather dismiss you disappointed if you want a scoop and serve dinner then go here. It you value quality than spend you're money elsewhere I'm genuinely disappointed read more

Food was wonderful, portions quite large, and the staff was very friendly, happy, and helpful! We will definitely return!

While we have loved the food and have been going for years, we now go to the other location because this one has gotten beyond straight up nasty. The last few times we've been it looks as though zero effort has been put forth to cleaning anything at all. Not even attempted. We ended up trashing the food from this location too. Just so dirty and gross. read more

This place used to be a favorite, but has become such a let down. The quality has been dropping significantly. We got the 5 piece spam musubi, big plate with katsu chicken and big plate with teriyaki chicken. No sauces were given to us, and when I asked for sauce they made a stink out of it. They only give 2 sauce per big plate now, when before I've gotten like 10 for this same order. When I asked for sauce they only gave me 2 teriyaki and 2 katsu, which is not as many as I should have received even by their new standards. The 3 guys working seemed totally inept, were unorganized and unclean, and made this a terrible experience. The pea salad had almost no sauce to it thus little flavor, and the mac salad had way too much mayo. The katsu chicken was dry and over cooked, tough like a brick. At least the spam musubi was good. Aloha, do better, like you used to. Until there is a turnaround, you've lost a couple customers. read more
