    Adobo Fried Rice Omelette
    Saleen M.

    My husband went here the last time he was in Vegas & was raving about it so we had to go! Just a short Lyft from The Strip. They serve many sweet & savory Hawaiian dishes. Adobo Fried Rice Omelette: This was the dish my hun was raving about & I was so excited to try it. The dish is huge! Sadly, the adobo fried rice lacked flavor & I wish it had more sauce, or at least a side of it.

    Awesome Hawaiian restaurant with incredible Loco Moco, Saimin Noodle soup, Mac salad, breakfast spam musubis with egg, Hawaiian drinks and other Hawaiian favorites. Prompt service where they bring the food out to you and also [[HIGHLIGHT]]spacious interior with plenty of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommended!

    Chicken Katsu

    Very disappointed. I ordered a chicken katsu plate, drink, and musubi to go. After getting home, I discovered my mac salad was missing. When I called the restaurant, I was brushed off and told I could come back to get it. The missing item wasn't even the biggest issue it was the lack of concern and customer service. If a restaurant makes a mistake, the least they can do is acknowledge it and make an effort to resolve it. Instead, the inconvenience was put back on the customer. Not impressed with how this was handled. Will never eat here again and there are far better Hawaiian food places to eat with better customer service as well

    Char siu from the wonton min had a mild sour smell. Didn't want to risk it so I took it all out and didn't eat it.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice restaurant right outside of UNLV.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You order at counter and they bring it to you. I was craving saimin so I came here and got the wonton min. It's a big bowl, the saimin was cooked right, but the char siu was not right. It was cold and had a wee bit of sour taste and smell, so I took it all out and didn't eat it. I didn't want to risk having to run to the john later on. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, place is clean, service is good and the lumpia Shanghai is always my favorite too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Used to come here a few years ago and the food was so good. Greeted as soon as you walk in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Good music playing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Well the food was as good as I remember! I had the Aloha Plate. Jammed packed with flavors. My husband was looking at his saying that's a lot of rice, but it was so good he ate all of it as I did with my food.

    Aloha Plate

    Having a Hawaiian friend has its perk sometimes, as they are able to show you some cool local spots like this. I was craving for some good Hawaiian food, and I'm so glad my friend was able to show me Aloha Kitchen! The Food: I went with the Aloha Plate. This includes Teriyaki Chicken, beef and chicken katsu. When I got the plate, it was huge and packed with food. The meats were delicious, cooked very well and I instantly got that feeling of being back in Hawaii enjoying some good food. If you're looking for something that will leave you satisfied and in a food coma, definitely get the combo plates. The prices were pretty good for what you get as well! The Service: Service was good. Was greeted when my friends and I walked in. Ordering process was simple. You just walk in, order at the front and pick a table to sit at. Food came out in a timely manner as well. No complaints at all. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Atmosphere: Nice and clean, with plenty of seating. Not much to say or noteworthy that stood out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, a 5/5. Everything here was great. I highly recommend giving this spot a try. I'll be back again for sure.

    This is a must stop every time I visit Las Vegas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great ambience, the food is delicious, the price is amazing, and the staff is just wonderful.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I was not impressed with the service nor the food but it was late and they were open. Ordered the garlic chicken which was just badly grilled chicken with a garlic gravy sauce. We went to Generation Kitchen earlier in the week and was so spoiled. They set the bar high. This was more Flipino than Hawaiian.

    Fried Saimin
    Marites D.

    Aloha Kitchen is a great place for Hawaiian and Filipino food. You'll find them at University Square on Maryland, next to Riva's Mexican Grill. There's good parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Atmosphere is laid back and casual with ample seating for a table or booth.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Placing an order is done at the counter. Lumpia Shanghai ($8.49) is a fantastic snack, they give ten pieces that are excellent and crunchy, served with a nice sweet chili sauce. Fried Saimin ($12.49) is very filling and delicious! Noodles are nice and chewy. It has charsui pork sautéed with celery, cabbage, carrots, scallions, and egg. They sold out of Leche Flan. So I opted for Macaroni Salad ($3.99) which is tasty and also good. Service from Yoo and Kimmy is welcoming, friendly, and courteous.

    Eh short ribs.... Pass
    Joseph W.

    The service here can be a little better. Not getting the aloha experience. The fried chicken and chili was pretty good. I ordered a side of the short ribs and they were thin and expensive, $14.50 for 2 slices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Aloha used to be great but with matiki down the street it's no contest. A Hawaiian bbq place should smell like bbq and smoke.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Won't be back as too many better options.

    Missing food from home so had to come here for breakfast and get the Adobo Fried Rice Omelette. Kids meal was pretty nicely portioned considering the price; fries were hot. Will definitely be back. Food came out fast and really hot. Service bringing food to the table was really nice.

    8/4/25 Affordable Hawaiian food that is straight forward and will fill you up. I got the 2 Meat Combo w/ Spam & Corned Beef Hash! Nothing memorable but definitely got the job done. I like Aloha Kitchen.

I had ordered the poke nachos and 2 entree meal with katsu dynamite and furikake Korean chicken. Honest review because y'all deserve the truth. The poke nachos was pretty good I'd say 8/10. The chips stayed crunchy! If it wasn't so saucey I'd might rate it a 9/10. But because they drenched it in too much sauce it got too sweet & I couldn't finish the rest. Had to pick out all the chips that had too much sauce. I'm would order this again but maybe I'd ask for light sauce or sauce on the side. Both the katsu dynamite and the furikake chicken, I'd give a 6/10. Honestly maybe even a 5/10 They both were too saucey. It wasn't enjoyable at all. I would NOT get these again. However, I would come back & give this place another shot but most definitely will be try something else next time.

    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.

Things were still getting together but I have faith they will get back to their normal flow. Food was tasty as always. Had the beef ribs and the kalua pig today. The Kalua pig was a very tasty version. One of the better ones I've had in town for my taste. Not too smoky, felt like it was roasted for a long time. The meat was still intact but tender. Ribs were as they always are. The only thing today, was that the boxes didn't feel as full as they normally do. Only got 4 ribs today and they weren't all that meaty. The pig dish wasn't full to the brim either. Also, prices have gone up from the menu, so seeing higher prices (totally understandable) and less food was a little disappointing.

Frank's macaroni salad wasn't the absolute best I've had, but it was genuinely good--surprisingly better than Zippy's, a true Hawaii staple. The loco moco was excellent: the eggs were perfectly cooked, bright yellow and so delicate they looked like they'd break if you stared at them too long. You get two juicy hamburger patties and two generous scoops of rice, making it easy to stretch into two solid meals. The spam musubi was fresh and still warm (we ordered right at opening at 11 AM and picked it up by 11:30). They added a touch of teriyaki sauce between the rice and spam, which I'm usually not a fan of, but it actually worked really well here. The salty, grilled spam still shone through. The spot itself is a classic Hawaiian BBQ cafe--simple, no-frills, with a mix of sit-down tables and to-go boxes flying out the door. You could tell they had just opened but were already deep into the lunch rush. Even so, service was impressively smooth. We were quoted about 20 minutes, but I walked in, hit a short line, and was back out the door with piping-hot food in under five minutes. I'll definitely be coming back for some Hawaiian comfort food.

His cousin couldn't stop raving about the food, so we decided to check it out for dinner last night. We ordered the Crackhead Chicken and Da "OG" Beef to share, and I also got a Spam musubi I had been craving. The musubi was HUGE and really hit the spot. We also ordered a side of Crackhead Chicken without the spice for our 1 year old, and she LOVED it. Normally she throws her food, but this time she actually ate it and kept making the cutest "yummy" faces the whole time. The moment I took my first bite of chicken, my reaction said it all. The flavor was INCREDIBLE! It had a perfect balance of sweetness from the coconut and a nice kick from the spices. Everything worked so well together, and the chicken itself was unbelievably moist and juicy. I also loved that the meat was served over the rice, allowing for all the juices to soak in. The rice was soft, flavorful, and just as satisfying. The macaroni salad was hands down my favorite compared to any Hawaiian BBQ spot I've tried. I also had a few bites of the beef, which had an amazing flavor and just the right amount of char to elevate it even more. The only thing that didn't stand out to me was the coleslaw, but we found out later that you can substitute for extra macaroni salad for an additional 50 cents. We will definitely do that next time! Overall, we had a fantastic experience and will absolutely be back whenever we are in the area. One quick note for parents: there are no high chairs available, and we even searched the entire food court. Since it's inside a casino, it's understandable, but just something to keep in mind.
