I had their beef kalbi with rice and macaroni salad the first time I was there and was impressed with the kalbi; I got the jalapeño poppers too but they were okay, not too bad and not that great, just satisfactory. The macaroni salad didn't have much flavor. I ordered the spicy tuna roll, poke bowl, and jalapeño poppers this time and was disappointed. The poppers were nothing special and I don't think I'll be ordering those again. The tuna consistency and flavor was really subpar - it was a delivery so obviously it's not the best compared to dining in but the consistency and taste of the tuna was really disappointing, like it was watery? Almost not ground up well enough. The poke bowl was the most disappointing! I think they sear or do something with the tuna in the poke bowl but the flavor was just too sweet. I had three tuna bites to be sure and had to pass on it. The bowl was really small too, and the sides in there were almost non-existent. I think if I ever order here again it would just be for the beef kalbi. read more

Coming from hawaii, it's hard to find good local food from hawaii. I found this place driving around phoenix and wanted to try. Came into the restaurant very spacious and empty. I ask the counter person for a chicken katsu all rice. Katsu was perfect, and sauce was like zippy sauce made better. read more

Very fast, very clean. Whenever I am craving a plate lunch my mind goes to Mac salad first. Their mac salad is one of the best I've tried. Their musubi is great AND they have the real sriracha. Will definitely fix your craving for a Hawaiian plate lunch. read more

Sooo back in 2015 when i used to regular this place it was delightful and tasty. Alas now, horrible. If you have hawaiian food don't, mess with a bunch of other things please. Do not eat the sushi. Didnt taste at all like it was made there. Tasted like supermarket bad sushi and smelled bad. Poke bowl, the same and very icky. Also who puts bavon bits in a poke bowl? My husband's food he said tasted like it came from a box. The spam musubi we had was very eh, spam didnt taste like it was cooked. Rice was horrible. If your gonna have Hawaiian in the title please just stick to the hawaiian. I miss the old owners read more

I was really excited to try Da Valley Grill ... a taste of the islands in the desert? Per the reviews, I was so down! Well, perhaps I set my expectations a wee bit high? Don't get me wrong, a solid spot with some classic choices a good quick service lunch if you're in the area. Everything was good but not 5 star "best I've ever had" great. Service was kind, efficient and fast but food was just meh for us. We had the following: The spicy garlic shrimp (not spicy but sweet) and the Locomoco patty had a "previously frozen" taste to it. Veggie spring rolls were crispy and delicious. So an A-Ok if in the area stop for lunch but just not that wowzy ya dig? read more

Da Valley Grill - Musubi a must as well as the veggie spring rolls. Garlic shrimp skip and mocoLoco was ok - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

It was a quick transaction [nowadays] to this local business. Ordered to-go for work, and I'm so glad this local gem-restaurant is opening & ready to serve our community during this difficult time. Thanks you for not only providing such tasty food & good value, but also keeping up our spirit...supporting each other & be kind to one another - we will get through this. Thank you for staying open & accommodating! Kudos read more

Went here today for lunch. I ordered the orange chicken and the crunch maki roll. The food was pretty good and the orange chicken was crispy which was nice. I wouldn't really recommend their sushi as the rice was falling apart and they used fake crab. Nothing wrong with fake crab but I prefer real crab in my maki rolls. I'll be back for their non sushi items. read more

Authentic, great food in a small hole-in-the-wall location. Service is great and the food is amazing. We got the Pole Bowl, shrimp fried rice, vegetable ramen and chicken katsu. The katsu was decent, the shrimp fried rice and ramen were amazing. Both were huge portions. The poke was just right. We will definitely stop in again when passing through PHX read more

Da Valley Grill - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

I used to order from this restaurant as I am from hawaii, and thought this place was decent enough to get my fix. But today, I ordered spam musubi, Kalua pig plate, and a chicken chow mein plate that not only looked like it has been sitting for a good week under a heater but tasted like I am guaranteed to get sick. We will see in a day or two. But the kalua pork was so dry that it was crispy and tasteless. If you see my picture anyone from Hawaii knows this is not what it should look like. The musubi had coagulated teriyaki sauce that molded against the Saran Wrap. I am hopeful that this place turns around. Crossing my fingers read more

This place is pretty good considering there aren't many options for Hawaiian food around. I also love supporting locally owned restaurants. They have large portions (see my picture for scale), especially if you go for lunch. I got the Chicken Katsu ($8.50) and it was pretty good. I loved the mac salad, tasty and not overly dressed. The katsu sauce tasted like A1 sauce; I think I would rather have a sweet sauce to go with my katsu. I ended up mixing it with a pineapple habanero sauce I have at home. Will probably try a different dish when I go back! read more

Very disappointing; don't waste your time or money. 1st they were difficult to Oder from. Even through we had menu numbers and exact titles they still had a difficulty time taking the Order. 2nd When we got there we went over the order again. It was like pulling teeth. 3rd even those we verified what the should have been and paying for 4 orders. When we got home and went through it we saw we were one order short. 4th to make matters worse we never got the receipt and it was not in the bags. So they screwed us for-sure. 5th One of our orders only had 7 small bites of BBQ chicken in it. I would NEVER recommend this place ever. read more

Most of the food we tried seemed very old and leftover. All the food we were served was just luke warm and almost cold when it arrived. They never even bothered to unwrap the Musubi from it's plastic wrap. The food reminded me of food from the worst budget buffet I ever went to. I tried a Bento Zip Box with Pineapple Chicken, Teriyaki Chicken and Mahi Mahi with Potato salad. Both Fried Entrees (Pineapple Chicken and Mahi Mahi ) were almost cold and when I bit into them Oil squished out and left a bad after taste in my mouth. I found both fried entrees inedible. The Teriyaki Chicken was cooked nice but was also almost cold with a not to offensive bottled cold sauce squirted on. It didn't taste so fresh but was the most edible thing on my plate. My white rice seemed over cooked and mushy and also didn't taste fresh. I kept eating the potato salad trying to figure out what was wrong with it and my conclusion is no salt or pepper was used in it. I liked that they used fresh green onions in it but I think maybe the potatoes might have been old because it really didn't taste good. Unfortunately my husband had a similar experience with his plate that was all different from mine. He had a Spam Musubi that still had plastic wrap on it. He couldn't eat the Kalua Pork it did have some fresh green onions on it but other than that it lacked flavor and seemed unseasoned and was almost cold. The most edible part of his plate was the Katsu Chicken it seemed like it was made today but was also almost cold. The rice was overcooked, mushy and not so fresh tasting. The Macaroni Salad seemed like it was a month old. The Mayo had broken down to just paste like oil and was very offensive and horrible. Approximately. 2/3rds inedible food. Approximately 1/3 edible but not so great almost cold food. Equals One star I will not return or recommend. My stomach was turning for hours I thought I'd be sick. It was like catching Da Valley Fever from Da food. 5-14-14 I appreciate that the Da Valley Grill contacted me about my exsperience. I am certain this might have been fluke exsperience since they didn't have their regular cook on. But the honest truth is if the food wasn't old it was very mishandled or equipment wasn't working right. I do appreciate their concern and are very glad they are looking in to what happened. I was hoping this would be a new favorite since I am found of another Hawaiian Eatery in the Valley and this place offers different options. I do hope they figured out what happened and I hope this was just an isolated circumstance. read more

Da Valley Grill - Lemon glass chickens! So yum! - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Everything was great! Chicken katsu, shrimp friend rice, spam masubi, all very good! We'll be returning

came by this small mom and pop Hawaiian restaurant to check it out with some friends and could not be more impressed. The food, service, and restaurant itself were all exemplary and really what all mom and pop shops should strive to be like, in my opinion. We all were able to get "combos" of 2-3 of the items on the menu, which wasn't on the menu, but the owner working at the time was more than happy to accommodate for us. She really went out of her way to give us anything we needed, and was super pleasant throughout the whole meal. The price of the food was pretty fair, and honestly I felt like I was at a friend's house just having dinner with the way she made the food and treated us. The food itself was excellent. From the musubi to the chicken katsu to the mahi mahi, I've never had Hawaiian cuisine this good, and was honestly surprised to find it in the middle of Arizona. Will definitely stop by again, and if yo are around the area, I definitely recommend giving this place a try. read more

This place is L&L but BETTER. More mom and Pop considering it's family owned, it's a neat little hole in the wall where the portions are large and the friendliness is welcome always. They unfortunately no longer serve free soup when you dine-in, my boyfriend and I were sad to see that go. The service is always great, worth a wait for higher quality food since it's cooked to order. I highly recommend the chicken Katsu, the curry chicken katsu, the spam musubi, and their loco moco, all fantastic items. read more

Today was my first time trying Da Valley Grill and I thought it was gonna be your typical hole in the wall place with great food. Well it wasn't. I ate my meal at 12 PM and since 3 PM I have been feeling sick to my stomach. I was suffering at work for two whole hours. I did not finish either of the two food items I started eating (veggie ramen and side of Mac salad) because I could tell that the taste was off. I'm glad I didn't and I threw it away because I am now home at 5:30 PM violently throwing up in my bathroom. I cannot get the taste or the smell of the ramen out of my mouth. I really wanted to like this spot because it is near my job. But I cannot write a good review for food that made me sick and made me puke as bad as this did. I am so disappointed beyond words. I had plans today after work and had to cancel them thanks to this. read more

Revisit today. Arrived at 11:40 on a Tuesday and two guys were dining. More came later. I ordered a Bento Box with Chicken Katsu, Kailua Pork and Pineapple Chicken. I added a can of soda for $9.47 plus tip. The Bento comes with rice and a side, so I chose macaroni salad this time. My lunch arrived in about 6 mins. The Kailua Pork was hot to the point of steamy. The Chickens were good, each with its own dipping sauce. There was plenty of food to fill up this big guy and I still couldn't finish it. The chicken was virtually the same for both dishes, just different sauces. The pineapple sauce was so cold and sweet, it went ignored. Still the best Katsu around! read more

Always a great hawaiian food fix! This time tried their chicken chow mien and definitely will order it again! read more

Not sure where the high ratings come from, but I would assume it's because there may be better tasting dishes on the menu. My hubs and I decided to choose here for some Hawaiian dishes, it got good reviews so I stopped by to order takeout. I ordered him the garlic shrimp and I the Loco Moco, the Hawaiian staple. While the garlic shrimp tasted good, they kind of skimped on the amount of shrimp. It was SIGNIFICANTLY better tasting than my Loco Moco, however. My Loco Moco was TASTELESS. the Hamburg patty was way way over cooked, it was hard to cut and crispy on the edges... The sauce? A gravy with ZERO flavor. Nothing soy sauce, salt, pepper, or garlic powder could do to save this dish. This was a severe disappointment. This place claims to be a Hawaiian takeout, but they can't get the Loco Moco right. They should stick with only Asian fusion, as Chicken Katsu and orange chicken are their most popular dishes, according to the gentleman who took my order. The extra star is only because the garlic shrimp sauce was very flavorful. Sorry guys, we won't be back. read more

I was craving some Hawaiian food and found this place near me. It was pretty empty when I got there except for 2 other customers. They both finished ordering and I proceeded with mine. The lady who took my order looked confused and didn't know how to work the register. After I said my order she just looked at me and now I was confused. It was a pretty slow transaction. Wait time for my food also took a long while (I ordered chicken katsu & Hawaiian Sun) but it was a quick wait time for the people in front who had bigger orders. For the most part, it was a drag just for food. I do hope others do not get the same experience I had read more

I ordered takeout from this place hoping to get some good chicken katsu curry plate lunch. If you love mac salad from Hawaii, DONT EAT IT HERE. It barely had any Mayo and it was really sweet! The curry in the katsu curry was not really flavorful as well. I'm from Maui and this place was a little disappointing for me. If youre in the area and want local plate lunch, drive the extra few minutes to go to L&L. read more

I got the Kalua Pork, Spam Musubi, and the chocolate mousse cake. The pork was delicious super savory and mouth watering served on top of perfectly cooked rice, spam Musubi is the reason I went and they did not disappoint one of the best I've had I got two. Chocolate mousse cake was good, not the best I could've gone without it. Very sweet wish it the chocolate flavor was more present. read more

Da Valley Grill - Spam Musubi - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Should have gone with recent Yelp reviews instead of uber eats star rating. Have never ordered from here before. We ordered: Veggie spring rolls, inside was just mush and not good flavor Chicken dumplings, inside stuffing was okay, but sauce that came with was ick Chicken pad Thai...most bland pad Thai I have ever had! Just tasteless mush and was made with dark meat instead of chicken breast...threw it out Lemongrass chicken...NO flavor! This was at least white meat, but was chewy and tasted off...threw it out also So, long story short, I agree with recent reviews, do not eat here unless you want bland mush. Complete waste of money!!! read more

Like many other businesses, the owners have changed and so has the food. For the better--larger menu with sushi/poke offerings. The chicken katsu is killer and portions remain humongous. For the worse--mac salad is horrible. Bland with stale noodles. Curry chicken has pretty good flavor and decent amount of chicken but way too many potatoes. Smoothies are also horrible--made with powder mix and no fruit. Artificial in every which way and not refreshing. Didn't get chance to try current version of kahlua pork but the mac salad was a deal breaker for me. No longer interested. No longer worth the drive for me. read more

So far my first visit and I'll be back. I posted a pic of my lunch and a bunch of coworkers asked where it was from and how it was and we will all be ordering this week for delivery. I had the chicken Katsu with rice and Mac salad. The sauce was tasty. I think I'm just used to the flavor of sauce from L&L but I did enjoy this. I'm very interested in trying more from the menu soon. It's tasty, totally affordable to make it somewhere we order from often. read more

Da Valley Grill - 55. Fried Noodles with BBQ Chicken - Hawaiian Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

We stopped by early on Saturday for the loco moco and the tofu cubes stir fried. The rice dishes came with a side, and we chose macaroni salad for both dishes. Flavors of our food were good - not overly salty or sweet. They asked us how we liked the eggs on the loco moco and if we wanted one or two eggs (same price) so we got two eggs over easy. We really liked the loco moco patty and gravy. The tofu cubes were stir fried with carrots, cabbage and broccoli in a sauce with a slightly spicy kick - flavors reminded me of Thai stir fry. I enjoyed the tofu dish, but was expecting white tofu cubes rather than fried tofu cubes so I should've asked before ordering. When we were almost done eating, they brought over a plate of egg rolls for us on the house which was unexpected and very nice of them. We also got one spam musubi for later, which hit the spot after our hike; we wished we bought two! read more

I love me some Hawaiian BBQ food...well more specifically chicken katsu, white rice and of course Mac salad. I went to Da Valley Grill as it is one of the closer Hawaiian food places near me. The staff was friendly and the place was really clean. Reason for the 3/5 stars was the chicken katsu didn't have much flavor and the Mac salad was a little different (not in a good way) too. I would likely give Da Valley Grill another go, but will not order the same food. read more

Ordered on Uber eats, and got the Chicken Katsu and took a bite and threw it out. It had Zero flavor and little to no flavor on the breeding. I was gooojng to get the golden brown breading but was disappointed. Also came with 3 scoops of rice and no Mac salad. The sushi delivered was hot as well.I didn't trust the sushi based on the presentation/taste of the chicken Katsu read more

I've always considered commercial Hawaiian-style cuisine as fun food - a bit unusual, fun to order and generally quite tasty. The food here is no exception. The spam musubi was quite flavorful and appealing, but there's a bit of bias on my part as I am a fan of spam. For the main course I ordered the Kahuku style garlic shrimp; it was delicious and had a really pronounced garlic flavor, just the way I like garlic-sauced dishes. It was served on top of sticky rice which was a bit too sticky for my taste. Perhaps this batch of rice was boiled in a bit too much water; that was the damper to the meal and I left most of the rice on the plate. But I finished every bit of the shrimp and the very flavorful sauce. The restaurant itself is clean and simply decorated with Hawaiian surf stuff and the service was efficient though very businesslike. read more

Now I am no expert in Hawaiian food, but my brother is pretty close to one and he really loved this place. And I have to say I thought pretty highly of it myself. Don't expect any glitz and glam. This is a mom and pop kind of restaurant. Simple. But I have no problem with that. It kind of feels like you are going to one of your friends parents houses and having dinner or in our case lunch. So like I said, my brother is a pretty big fan of Hawaiian Cuisine. When I stumbled across this place on yelp I knew I had to bring him. And let me tell you, when my 15 year old brother asked the lady taking our order if they had Spam Musubi, she about fell over. "Uh.. we do.. How do you know what that is?" As that is something not typically on their regular menu. I knew we were in the right place. I am usually not a fan of Spam (Tehe.) But this was surprisingly tasty. Charred Spam, Sticky rice, wrapped in seaweed, drizzled with a sweet and salty sauce. They had a meal where you were able to chose 3 meats and 2 sides. I tried the Fried Mahi, Chicken Katsu, and the Pineapple chicken with the sides of White rice and macaroni salad. Everything was tasty but my favorites were for sure the Fried Mahi and the Macaroni salad. I think this will become a regular stop for my brother and I on our brother, sister day dates. read more
