I enjoyed my chicken combo, especially the katsu. The bbq chicken was okay, but I definitely needed to add sauce on the back end to make it more flavorful. The staff was friendly and welcoming to our large party! Even though we all individually ordered at the counter at separate times, they were smart and waited for all the orders to be in before making any of our food. This ensured that the first person that ordered wouldn't have gotten their food before our last person arrived and ordered. Small parking lot, so think about carpooling if you're coming with several people. Overall, solid place for a casual, value meal with plenty of offerings! Will definitely be back to try other things.

Loved the food. The service was good as well as fast. It's tastes like the food we had in Hawaii!!read more

Visited during the And More Atlanta Market…read more I should have made reservations, but I was hungry so I just took a seat at the bar with my colleague. The bar isn't very big, maybe 10 stools in all? The place is very dark and dimly lit with tiki vibes. The bartender was very slow to greet us and give us drink and food menus. Ordered the original Mai Tai and it tasted awful, second drink was a TZ Swizzle much fruitier nicer and light. My colleague ordered the stir fry and it looked tasty. I ordered the edamame pot stickers with shishito peppers and falafel salad. The pot stickers came fried which I wish the menu would have specified but they were tasty and the shishito peppers in the yuzu sauce were delicious. The salad was brought to me without the falafel on top so I had to struggle to get the bartenders attention to let him know and waited some more to receive the four falafels on a separate plate. Once I began eating it I noticed the salad was also very dry, it's so dark I couldn't notice at first until I started to eat it. Then I requested more dressing. To be honest eating at the bar was probably not the best choice because the service was slow as he was slammed making drinks and the bar top had such a huge thick lip it was hard to eat over your plate, so much sauce dripped on to the bar edge because it was so far away from me.

Find them at feativals , farmer's market etc. For this mothers day we sought the truck but the were promised elsewhere. So went to Pele's pit to order a platter. Same owners with the same food. Not exaggerating when i say it is by far the best Hawaii themed food i have ever had. We got the chicken and pork belly with mango slaw and rice. Every bite was delicious. Capped it off with their desserts. Ube banana pudding with Oreos. Sooo good. Jeasica is amazing. Very personable. Felt like i was ordering food from my baby sister. Very caring and considerate.

Hubby selected the tofu bbq bun and it was very good. Not very spicy despite the $1 upcharge for the spicy sauce. I selected the salad rice bowl with gently just fried with a crunchy crust tofu. Hold the mayo for me. Good portion ! With the combo meals spring rolls and drink included. Spring rolls were hot and crunchy but basically empty. Would not order those again. Beverages were $3 ala carte which is a ripoff. So , bun and bowl were winners, just bring your own drinks ....

I was surprised to find out that an L&L Hawaiian Barbecue location opened in Smyrna. I'm from SoCal…read moreand my parents were born in Hawaii, and L&L has many locations in both places, so am very familiar with L&L. Martin decided to drive us here to try out the Hawaiian food. Parking was easy to find in a free parking lot shared by other neighboring businesses. L&L is in one end of a retail building, and people have to go up some steps to get to the entrance. If steps are challenging to L&L customers, they can park in spaces on the opposite end of the building where there aren't any steps. Counter service was friendly and quick. L&L is in a small space, awkwardly set up, so that if there's a line of customers either waiting in line to place their orders or waiting inside for their food, they're standing right next to the tables. It's not enjoyable to be sitting at a table eating a meal while customers in line are standing no more than 2 feet away checking out what's on your plate. There were at least a couple of tables outside on the side of the building, meaning you have to take the steps down to get to that area, or, if you're physically challenged taking the steps down you'll have to go all the way down to the other end of the building, and walk (or roll) where cars are driving (no sidewalk along the parking lot) to get to the outside tables. While we were eating, the line of people waiting to place their orders grew to about 15 (which included 2 families), and the standing room only area inside quickly got very crowded and noisy. I felt the food was pricey for what we got. I ordered the bbq beef plate and Martin ordered the kahlua pork with cabbage plate. The teriyaki sauce on the bbq beef had a bold flavor, but it was was very salty. The kahlua pork tasted bland to me. Both of the plates came with 2 scoops of steamed white rice and a scoop of macaroni salad. The scoops of rice were generous, and the macaroni salad was very good. We don't live close to Smyrna, so I'm concerned about visiting again with the limited sitting space available inside, especially since the weather isn't always conducive to sitting outside to eat a meal. That plus the overall higher prices do not provide any motivation for us to return.

I wasn't expecting much from this place but it was the perfect gem. I wasn't expecting much able to make a last minute reservation online and we were seated immediately. The waiter was professional and so friendly--he literally knew every little thing about each dish. He provided some great recommendations and we decided to order the lobster crawfish wontons, the crispy beef, the drunken noodle with scallops and lobster tail, and the sticky ribs. I easily could have eaten all the wontons myself and the drunken noodles came large lobster tails and plenty of scallops. I ate these so fast that I forgot to take a picture. The crispy beef was a little bit on the sweeter side but it was the perfect amount of crunch and sauce that paired well with the vegetables and jasmine rice. I also really enjoyed the ribs--they were very tender and flavorful. It came with collard greens which I didn't enjoy as much but the other dishes were so good and I ate so much that I didn't mind. I also saw plenty of couples celebrating milestones together so it definitely makes for a cute night out if you're in the area looking to have a nice dinner with your partner. I hope to be back to Atlanta soon so that I can indulge again.

It was a Friday night, so it was pretty packed when we first got there. We put our names down, and then grabbed a drink at the bar. There was outdoor seating that was available, so we grabbed a seat. We were then notified that our table was ready. It wasn't even 20 minutes, so this was great. The host took us to two seats at the bar. SOS is such a cool island type of vibe. They have so many different tiki cocktails that you can choose from. They are mostly made of rum, but they have a few other ones that are made with different alcohols. Me and my wife both got our own drinks. Hers was a special Valentine's Day themed drink that was on the menu, and mine was one of the tequila/mezcal tiki drinks. Both tasted really good! The presentation was just as good too! You aren't limited to these though, it's a full bar, so you can get whatever you want. They also have a few food options, but very limited. Our bartender, Heather, was super nice as well. My wife had asked (when I went to the restroom) if they did anything for birthdays, since my birthday was a few days prior. She did this cool fire presentation and gave us two little slushie shots. Awesome bartender for sure! SOS is a great place to go for some really fun drinks. It's good for groups, but keep in mind that they do get quite busy on the weekends! I'll definitely be back.

All the drinks were very fun and taste great and range from smooth to STRONG. The attention to detail put into crafting the drinks is very admirable. I can guarantee your drink will look exactly like how it's depicted on the menu. If only I could remember the names of all the drinks I tried....oh well. What I do remember is that they set the Mai Tai's on fire so that's pretty cool. Service was also great. S/O Charlie! Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area. You're welcome!
