Good food like always! Friendly staff. Would have given them five stars, but the place could have been cleaner, especially the soda machine! Don't forget the sauce, it makes the meal. read more

Aloha Island Grill - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

In the past, the food and price were decent, now, they've gotten too greedy and are outrageously over priced for the quality and amount of food you get...over $10 for a tiny baby bowl of chicken...ridiculous. Hopefully they can do better and I won't be back till their quality and amount of food match the exorbitant price they charge... better yet, just don't charge so much because it's not worth it. read more

Had my first BAD experience with Aloha today but it was really bad. Crew was not wearing masks and they messed up our order. When we called to explain that to them they were rude and said we were wrong. Like we can't tell the difference between pork and chicken. The placed also smelled strongly of human pee. We won't return to that location again. EVER! read more

Highly recommend!! Wonderful food, huge portions, and fast delivery with Door Dash. Will definitely order again. read more

Crazy as it is, I came here for the Hawaiian Musubi. It was just as I remember it on the north shore of Oahu. The staff makes you feel welcomed and happy to be here in this kid friendly place! read more

Incredible service always, they're always so nice and quick at this location! Lava bites are great 10/10 read more

Friday night and only one cook. We did see another guy smoking outside (on break, maybe). Had to wait ten minutes for the Lava Bites to be made and then they came to the small plate all in a bunch together; they were greasy, oversauced, AND there was beef mixed up in there. Mac salad was floppy and had too much mayo or whatever in it. On the plus side, the Kalua pork was excellent and I didn't get any gross fat blobs in the portion (I like last time we ate here well over three years ago). Front counter guy was really nice and professional and he did tell us when we ordered that there'd be a 10 min wait on the lava bites. And that lava sauce is mighty tasty. Overall experience however was mediocre and we'll probably wait another three years before coming back. read more

I gotta say, just moved to Spokane and came across this place. WOW...1st off the mac salad (local people can be brutal) was soooo ONO!! That is Hawaiian for yummy! I ordered the garlic chicken... aside from it being a little bit sweet DAYUUUUM I'm going back for more. Braddah Errol was a little generous and gave me small kine sample of the kalua pig and teri chicken and those were really good as well. By the way I asked for a small (mini) plate and the portion was substantial. Definitely going back and I do recommend this place. Thanks again braddah Errol for making this Hawaiian boy smile on Aloha Friday!! P.S. the lava sauce (spicy) is amazing! read more

I got the Kalua pork and it was really good with sauce in it! The portion size was good for me but it was a little overpriced. I'll probably be back for more, though! read more

Don't bother with the drive through. All the crap they would never dare serving to a sit down customer gets loaded and thrown out the window. Call to ask what happened. New people messed up the salad and chicken must have gotten over cooked. Resolution. Tuff shit try again. Nope. read more

Portions are getting smaller. Used to be 3 scoops of rice now only 2, and the container even seems smaller. The mac salad at the Francis location is always soupy, the other location's is way better. However, Aloha has lost my business because of the shrinking portions, and $21-22 for some chicken and rice is no longer worth it. read more

The teriyaki chicken and rice with mac salad or pea salad is to die for!! I put a little teriyaki sauce or Sriracha on the rice. The chicken is SO tender and delicious. The space is small so I usually get my food to-go. read more

Sigh. I have loved Aloha for many years, however now that we live closer to one, we began getting it more often. Unfortunately we have been increasingly disappointed with both the food and the service... The employees have not only messed up our orders multiple times, they have also tried overcharging us twice. They honestly seem pretty high half the time...And seriously what's with the sauce fee? But you can literally bathe your food in it for free if you order inside?! I'm finally venting tonight because our teriyaki chicken is absolutely burnt and there was a long blondish gray hair in my food. Two stars is generous at this point. read more

Decided after watching an episode of Diners Drive inns and Dives featuring Loco Moco we had to find some and fast! We decided to head to Aloha Island Grill for some traditional Hawaiian breakfast. We live about 10 minutes away so they were nice to take our order over the phone. We couldn't find the breakfast menu online anywhere so she talked us through our options. My husband got the Moco Loco with Portuguese sausage and I had the traditional burger patty. The food was simple and delicious! Great gravy, two eggs for a medium sized portion cooked your way, cheese, rice and green onion. We will be back! read more

Aloha Island Grill - Breakfast menu at the Francis location only. - Hawaiian Near Me - Spokane, Washington

The teriyaki chicken is the most juicy, flavorful, non-fatty chicken I've ever had and when me and my husband order this we get it as early in the day as possible and are able to eat it all day long with getting the big plates! So absolutely mouth-watering good! read more

Recently opened sister location to the one on Monroe - bigger, a few more places to sit and dine. Friendly wait staff. Food wasn't prepared like it is on the islands, aside from the mac salad - which is similar. Kalua pork (overly salted) seemed more like smoked pork shoulder/pulled pork (vs steamed pork in banana leaves) and the teriyaki chicken was like smoked chicken thighs that had been placed on the grill to heat prior to serving - VERY overcooked and mealy/mushy in texture. The dark meat chicken should be toothsome and freshly grilled. Chicken katsu look like small fried dark meat "nuggets" vs a deep-fried thigh patty. Half-plates at $7.00 - $7.30 give you a fair portion of meat, a scoop of rice and a scoop of mac salad vs fruit salad (in yogurt) vs pea salad. It wasn't expensive by any means, but ~$20 after tax and tip for two half-lunch plates and one small drink seemed like there are better and tastier alternatives elsewhere. read more

Not that I have ever been to Hawaii or have their food, I claim that this place does a pretty nice job of feeding me so. The Place: Small, stereotypically decorated, does the job. This location has eat-in seating but no "high"-chair because all the tables are equipped to bar stool height. If you're going to get a high chair, get a "high" chair to fit your seats. Parents, be prepared to either have your child(ren) on your lap or staring at your knees. The Food: Delicious, different, and fresh. I love the 'Lava Bites' even though it takes about 8 extra minutes, I don't care - they're so worth it. It's like Hawaiian hot wing sauce on crispy bits of chicken! Their sides are salads - macaroni, pea, or fruit. The fruit salad is really good and something I like to give to the kid since they use fruit chunks. The Staff: Friendly, helpful, and fast. They like working there, it's easy to tell. read more

Five stars for the chicken. Fresh, tender, flavorful.... ADDICTIVE. Two stars for the sticky floors. read more

I've had a love/hate relationship with Aloha Island; sometimes their food is great other times not so much. Tonight was by far the worst experience I've had, and I will not be back. We ordered 8 plates and all were messed up. Charred, burned food and mushy rice that looked like it was recycled from leftover plates with bits of food mixed throughout. They shorted us a plate, and when we called them they said they would give us a couple free plates for messing up the order. We drove all the way back and they gave us the missing plate but not the two free plates on the house. read more

Normally, even though its pricy its pretty good. However, the serving sizes change all the time. I've been disappointed before with them but continued to go because I love the Mac salad. I think today is the last time I will spend $20 for a small to go box of food here. read more

Sadly disappointed, my lady and I came in on a Sunday around 1 and this was our first time here. I asked and got told by a few buddies of mine that this place was amazing. We get there, go inside and it smells like burnt food...i order the Aloha burger and my lady gets the beef small plate. She said it would take a minute (totally fine) we are patient people. She calls us because our food is done and I go get it, it looked decent. My burger was burnt, her food was burnt. The rice was good, we finished half of it with chard in our teeth, we dont like to complain, but when we do it's real. read more

My Hawaiian food experiences are as follows... Being forced to try poi (library paste) years ago, and seeing 'plate lunch' offerings on food/travel channel shows--and commenting on how unappetizing it all looked. Well, on first taste, it winds up being pretty good to me. You've had this food before. You and your high school/college buddies at 4AM after bingeing, and winding up in some random kitchen. All the exotic ingredients for the Loco Moco are there in the pantry and fridge. Rice, brown gravy, eggs, and some protein delivery system (meat, usually burger patty). Yup. It's total drunko-stoner food, and I ate every, starchy rice grain bit of it. They also have some very good house-made sauces, and their Lava Sauce was not too terribly hot, with absolutely great flavor. The two young gals taking care of everything seemed to genuinely enjoy working there, and were very helpful. An interesting--and good--new dining experience for me in our metro... read more

This is one of my favorite places for lunch or a quick dinner, this place is very much a mom and pop shop, I have meet and spoken with the owners. Both are born and raised in Spokane. I like the food here, from the teriyaki chicken to the garlic chicken. They do good burgers too but your really missing out if you get one. The mac salad is the best hands down with a bit of lava sauce on top. The fruit salad is also really good, reminds me of grandma used to make. Service is good and the staff is quite knowledgeable and can help the first timer find something they'll like. Portion size is generous and with a coke free style or beer you've got options for drinks. As far as the other reviewers saying that the food is inconsistent or not always good, they should remember that this is a local business not a chain restaurant. The cook preparing the food is not always the same one day to day. Variances in taste and texture should be appreciated as they imply originality and character. read more

Holy crap. My girlfriend made me go here. I've never loved her more. The teriyaki chicken and beef were good. You, obviously, have to like teriyaki to like these dishes, but if you do, you won't be disappointed. But what you really need to try is the garlic chicken. Dear god that food was amazing. Like, I'm drooling as I'm typing this just thinking about it. I can't even describe it all that well other than to say it was the food embodiment of awesome. If you die without eating this dish, you have never really lived. The place is tiny and a little annoying to get to, and extra sauce is surprisingly expensive. Hence only four stars. But try the garlic chicken. Dear god. read more

This is my most favorite place to drive in order and take the food home. I always know what I'm getting is going to be the best .They have fantastic pea salad , macaroni salad ,fruit salad not to mention their meats are always delicious I'd recommend this place to everybody. I also need to mention portion sizes are big, and the staff has always been so friendly. read more

Prices are a bit high but it's so delicious, we can't help but eat here atleast once a month! The chicken teriyaki & beef teriyaki is to die for! I love the tropical fruit salad & my husband enjoys the pea salad. Great Hawaiian teriyaki restaurant! read more

Ordered small plate of garlic chicken with Mac salad . THE MAC SALAD WAS FROZEN ROCK SOLID. Actually unedible this place has gone to shit not worth 20$ for a couple bites of chicken and shitty Mac and cheese. The one on Monroe is 1000x better read more

I stopped in for lunch while my truck was being worked on. The food was delicious and the service was awesome. They acted like we were best friends. Having never been in before, the guy suggested a#2 small plate. It was more than enough food...teriyaki chicken, rice, & Mac salad. Like i said, the service was fast and friendly. I will definitely stop in again. read more

I arrived shortly before closing time at Aloha Island Grill. I needed a huge amount of food to serve a family of four. They treated me great!. The staff gave me the works. It's not often that I feel great about what I purchased. This was a very fair price for a large amount of food. It was delicious and very meaty. I had a difficult time telling the meats apart because they appear to be cooked for long amounts of time. Very tender and delicious though. We ate like kings! read more

Called in an order from the online menu and when We picked it up, we were grossly overcharged. Spoke with the owner, he was very rude, condescending, and asked me where I work. Very, very unprofessional! Do not support! read more

Leave it to this dump to "f" up a mother's day. My young daughter wanted to treat her mother to Mother's day dinner. She goes to this rip off of a restaurant and orders 3 $15 dollar large plates. She comes home with 3 small. So for a $45 dollar bill she received 6 scoops of white rice, 4 scoops of macaroni salad in a side box and 3 small meals, 2 Katsu chicken breast and 1 teriyaki beef about 3 oz. Aloha maybe had 8 dollars in the plates, and I am being generous. I have been to Maui about 30 times and never paid this prices for good food. Food sucks and the value is even worse than that! Last penny they will ever get from me and anyone else I can tell about this "S' Hole read more

This is my new favorite take-out restaurant! Ever since I found it, I've made a habit of going at least once a week (more if I can!) Everything is really fresh and made with quality ingredients. The teriyaki chicken is the best in town. The chicken is so tender and the sauce is excellent. I get it with the pea salad, which is very good. My husband orders the lava bites, they are too spicey for me, but he loves them. read more

I used to love this place but they really shake you down hard for tips these days. Used to be there was just the tip line on the receipt. No big deal there. But then they switched to using an iPad to run credit cards and now they really put the screws to you. There's a whole screen just for putting a tip, and last time I went the minimum value you could select was 15% of your order. No joke. Anyway I refused to tip last time since the minimum amount was three bucks and change. Guess what? My food tasted like crap. They didn't even put any teriyaki sauce on the chicken. It could've just been a coincidence that they picked that particular order to mess up, but I doubt it. Forget that, I'm done with this place for now. I guess it's still fine if you've got some cash on you. read more

This used to be one of my top go-to places for a quick and tasty meal. I don't know what is going on with Aloha these days, but the quality has really tanked!! The last two times I've gone they have given me the wrong order. I didn't realize it until I got home. When I called to tell them, they were unapologetic. Not a way to treat a customer that you want to return. They also have a lot of new employees, which I think is the problem. They are unkind and seem annoyed with everyone who walks in the door. With that being said, my biggest complaint is the drastic change in portion size. I used to share a big plate with my husband, no problem. Now a big plate is about 40% less chicken and almost completely filled with rice. Ugh. Well, Aloha, it was fun while it lasted.... Unfortunately I can no longer recommend you to anyone... read more

First impression on driving up to the restaurant is not good. The restaurant is small and not well maintained or clean. When I walked in, I realized the place is so small it had only 2 tables inside, which were both dirty. The place has a poorly placed heat pump that blows freezing cold air directly on you while eating. I ordered the teriyaki chicken and a musubi. They were out of tea, and ran out of musubi, so they had to marinate more. So I got a Diet Coke instead, and the meal came with macaroni salad. The chicken was awful. It was grisly and hard to chew. The flavor was just edible. The salad tasted even worse and I couldn't finish it was so bad. I won't be returning. read more

This is such a cool spot. When they are busy you are crammed into a teeny tiny lobby but the food is really good. I stay traditional with the teriyaki chicken. And I've stayed traditional since high school (2010). *Insert eye roll here* The pea salad is super good too. The only thing I don't love is I drive down Monroe on the weekdays to work in the morning, they empty smoke into the air that just smells like burnt food and it definitely feels like it shouldn't be so gross but it is. I'm no expert and I'm sure it's harmless but it bugs me. I'll still be back for food though. read more

Good was sloppily made. Got the spam musubi and the rice was over cooked, seaweed was overly soggy and not well put together. If you're going to go to aloha grill go to the one on Monroe. The workers there do a much better and thorough job! read more

Great food! Loved everything: teriyaki chicken, mac salad, fruit salad, and noodles. Friendly service.

My bf and I have been coming to aloha island grill and always enjoyed the food, given that the rice sometimes can be a bit mushy. But everything else has good flavor. Our last experience was horrendous. We ordered a large plate and was asked if we wanted mac salad or fruit salad with our order (the plates only come with these options not the bowls, this is important later). We were given a small rice bowl. When we informed them of the mixup, they proceeded to argue that we were wrong and told we have to pay an additional $15 if we wanted what we originally ordered. It was very poor costumer service especially after the staff whispered under their breath explicit language. We requested our money back and left. read more

question. Why do y'all never ever ever ever ever have fries? and stop hiring morons, you guys always get my orders screwed up. ‍ so annoying when you come home to something you weren't expecting. from now on i will sit there after i get my food and make sure i have everything i ordered and paid for. This is about the 5th time you guys screw up and i know i'm not the only one. so frustrating!! read more
