    Good number of options
    Lorenia W.

    This was my first time and my teen's second time. She was adamant that the family give it a try and we're all glad we did. We wanted simple healthy and flavorful, something different than the typical unhealthy fast food places, and reasonably priced. We got exactly what we wanted and left satisfied! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable when explaining the menu. They also have two stations to order yourself. Molokai w/veggies Kilauea Kids plate Mixed plate Soft serve The inside itself is very clean with a spacious sitting area. Music isn't too loud and it's bright. Including the parking lot.

    Hawaiian Bros Island Grill is fine, though I wouldn't call it "great". Placing an order was quick and easy, but not particularly friendly. No "hello", no smile. Nothing. Once ready, my Order was incorrect. No apology, but it was resolved quickly. Question: How much rice is needed as a side when the meats are already served on a bed of rice? I realize it's "traditional ", but seems like overkill. The Honolulu chicken was tender and good, but too sweet for my personal taste. The Luau pork was flavorful, but too salty. Macaroni Salad was simultaneously bland and too salty. I'm not sure how this is possible. There was a $0.50 upcharge for a Pineapple Skewer (not grilled) which was roughly equivalent to a single pineapple ring. (To substitute rice) Best item on the plate, but should have been included without the up charge. The Dole dessert (not described as "Dole Whip") was free with an account creation.. The Twist (1/2 pineapple and 1/2 "Tropical ") was light and refreshing. The portion size was more than ample. The facility was neat and clean with ever- so- slight Polynesian theme. Metal chairs were uncomfortable, but I doubt they'll be replaced anytime soon. High ceilings and all hard surfaces made for acoustics so loud, I couldn't hear the music over people's voices. Overall, HBIG was fine, though I'm not sure I'll be rushing back for more.

    On a fast food scale, the food is a 7/10, on a Hawaiian bbq food scale it's a 5/10. I don't want to be harsh on this but it's just flat compared to different Hawaiian bbq places. The food looks lifeless and the tastes are purely okay. The taste of the macaroni salad was half creamy and half pepper.

    Stopped here for dinner with 15 other people, they have 2 kiosks to order on and there was one person at the register. She was super friendly and kind! Didn't seem overwhelmed with the amount of people in there she was happy as can be and helping everyone. I got the Hulu Huli chi Ken and it was so good! The chicken was tender and good flavor! I liked the restaurant decor too very pineapple vibes. It was a good spot! This is my first time in Phoenix and I'll def come back next time I come.

    Classic - Mixed Plate with Huli huli chicken and luau pig

    In my opinion this spot is pretty underwhelming. The food was sub par and won't be coming back. The chicken was really chewy and the pork lacked any flavor. The rice was ok and seemed fresh, but sort of weird they pile it under the meat and then more off on the side. Mac salad was not seasoned so that was disappointing.

    We were visiting from California and found this little gem. The exterior is really new and sleek and so is the interior. It was a Monday night, so a lot of people were picking up orders for takeout, but we dined outside, where there were plenty of seats. The cashier was exceptionally sweet and helpful. She showed us how to order on the tablet and was really engaging. We ordered two combination plates and a smaller one-item plate. One was with the huli huli chicken and luau pig and the other with the Molokai and Honolulu chicken. We also got the dole whip. I think it was strawberry, but it was delicious. Our favorite was the signature huli huli chicken. Our least favorite was the mac salad. It didn't taste like the Hawaiian mac salad that we are used to, so that was the only thing that could use some improvement. We came back two days later because we liked it that much and also picked up souvenirs.

    Hawaiian Bros Island Grill I very much like the local business and will support as much as possible. Have driven by many times seeing what the old Schlotzsky's restaurant on 44th St and Thomas Rd Spam Masubi meat was on the thinner slice of spam and was slightly dry on a slab of sticky rice. Overall portion was on the smaller side. Huli Huli Chicken inside substituted the scoop of rice for another scoop of macaroni salad and was charged an additional $1. Chicken had alot of sauce which was a bit much for me, macaroni salad was slightly runny liquid wise, could not tell if it was caused by the mayo. Again seemed like all portions were on the smaller size. Honolulu Chicken was another plate meal on the smaller portion size. I would think they might do what other new restaurants do, initially when they open up give generous portions and then later scale down, if they scale down from these portions it will not be a great deal left. This restaurant's meal plates are all chicken, would expect at least some Galbi Short Ribs or other meats. Good luck on your continued business

    This was my first time trying Hawaiian Bros. Upon entering, I was greeted with an "aloha" by the cashier and was given help on the menu and what to order. I ordered the Hulu Hulu chicken plate, which is teriyaki chicken that comes with rice and macaroni pasta salad. The chicken tasted SO good. It could have been a little hotter temperature-wise because within a few minutes it was kind of like warm, but it was really good nonetheless. I gobbled it down in a matter of minutes. I really liked that there weren't any fatty/gross parts of the chicken. It came with an extra teriyaki sauce. The inside of the restaraunt is a great vibe. They play island music and the furniture and decorations are Hawaii-themed. I can definitely see this place becoming a go-to for comfort food!

    We had a VERY good experience here! Friday night, not busy, quick service, friendly staff and DELICIOUS food! We got the Huli Huli chicken which is honestly the most authentic Huli Huli chicken I've had, which says a lot considering I used to live on Maui. We also had the Kalua pig and Honolulu chicken. All 10/10! The rice was cooked perfectly and the veggies were yummy. And to top it all off we got the Dole Whip twist which was incredible! I highly recommend this place!

    The portions of the plates are smaller than what I expected. It was good, pretty standard food. I subbed one of the rice scoops for vegetables and it was an additional $1 charge. The worker was super nice and very friendly. The store is super clean and has lots of indoor and outdoor seating. At the end, we were able to enjoy a free dole whip by leaving a Google review. ig: @cravingswithcat

    I was craving Hawaiian food But didn't want to drive all the way to Ono. Hawaiian brothers has a drive thru option. Wonderful. I ordered the Molokai chicken. Good portion size and comes with a side of macaroni salad and rice. Chicken had good heat and flavor. The macaroni salad was good but I think I like Ono's better. I look forward to stopping here again soon

    Disturbing ingredients totally unnecessary to choose poisoning Americans. Do better. Its a choice.
    Jessie Z.

    Was hoping and thinking this would be a healthier option for "fast food." I mean: grilled meat, rice, veggies, what seems wrong? Looking at their sauces is scary sh**! Wth is "anti-foam" ingredient??? I just can't bring myself to come back knowing that this is the type of marinades and god-knows-what-other-garbage they support??? No thanks. Also, make sure u check your orders to be certain they included everything that u paid for. Taste wise, it's a solid 3 stars, but now I want to throw-up knowing I ingested so many chemicals. Sorry, HI Bros, but this is a disgrace to the culture and the owners need to re-eval their products. Corporate America proves again to value poisons over quality and safety!

    Saw this place on TikTok and heard it was on Tripple D.. that's awesome so I had to give it a try…read moreand boy let me tell ya it don't disappoint at all. I had gotten a plate with shrimp and there Mac salad and pineapple and man oh man it was amazing! It's right in Mesa and if I would recommend a restaurant it would be here! The service is amazing and the place look great too. 10/10 in my book. Best Mac salad ever!

    My wife and I have eaten here several times in the past without major issue, and we keep going back…read morebecause we generally enjoy it. This past Sunday, Mother's Day 2026, I stopped in around 3:45 to pick up dinner with chicken teriyaki, beef bugolgi, tempura shrimp, white rice, and green salad. It was the only meal of the day that we each ate from the same establishment. After I ordered, I heard the guy cooking complain to the cashier girls up front that it would be awhile, but they didn't repeat the concerns to me, so I didn't pay it any mind. Overnight, Sunday night/ Monday morning, my wife and I both became violently ill. I think maybe that chicken that was gonna take too long to cook, wasn't cooked all the way. It doesn't matter how many times I've eaten here in the past without incident. That was an absolutely terrible experience, and I won't risk it happening again, just because the cook wants to get out of work early. I will never eat here again.
