Clean and tasty! Scott at the front was super helpful and I could tell the general manager cared about the place. It was quiet but they were doing a lot of business. read more

Let's lei it on thick. Get it? Lei? Like a flower lei? Okay okay, I'll stop. The exterior caught my eye but this is one of the place where I should have kept driving. The tiniest scoops of the world saltiest mac salad is served here. I regret buying an extra serving of that mac salad because it was too salty to eat. I could feel my arteries hardening by the second bite. Dean and Sam Winchester would approve of this place because no ghosts would be around in a three-block radius. The kalua pork was okay but that Honolulu chicken is a hard pass. As for the $1.99 white chocolate macadamia nut cookie? It was okay. I wish it was warmed but it is what it is. The ASU area has way too many good eats to for me to stop by here again. It's a one-and-done for me for sure. E kala mai. read more

For starters, I was pretty satisfied with my portion sizes contrary to some other reviews on here. The Pineapple BBQ sauce and siracha was good but I hate to admit everything else was pretty mid. The Mac salad had too much mayo, the noodles were over cooked and the absence of any crunchy vegetables like carrots or celery were missed heavily! This just tastes like a mouthful of warm mayo, not pleasant at all. The meat was just okay. I couldn't tell it was grilled. It had no grill flavor, you could've told me it was baked and I would've believed you. Also, a tad too sweet for my liking. I hate to say it but there are far better options for Hawaiian BBQ in the area, hell I'd rather get teriyaki chicken at Panda Express down the street. Unfortunately, I have no desire to come back to this place. read more

Hawaiian Bros Island Grill - Classic - Mixed Plate - Hawaiian Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

I'm never in the ASU area so even though I had just picked up lunch, this place called to me. I was sold by the typeface and exterior but I really should have trusted the Yelp reviews. Never in my life have I been so disappointed by Hawaiian BBQ. I shared a plate with Honolulu Chicken and Kalua Pork. We bought an extra scoop of macaroni salad on the side along with a macadamia nut chicken. I was so surprised by how small the portions were. Even with rice underneath the entrees, it was still pretty meagar. The meats themselves were ovely salty. The macaroni salad was also insanely salty. I appreciated the black pepper in it but where were the vegetables? As for the cookie, it was a standard cookie. Nothing you have to get but still a decent sweet treat. Order at the one out of two self-service, wait for them tho call your name, and pick up your food at the pick-up window. There was one guy by the front that will assist you if you need help. One and don't. Not for me. read more

The food was fine, but this is far from real plate lunch you get in Hawaii. Mac salad was dripping mayonnaise, no carrots no taste of onion or vinegar, just noodles and mayo. Flavors of the chicken were ok, but it just felt lackluster. read more

One of my rare Ubereats adventures.. Pretty good.. got the Chicken and The Luau Pig.. the Macaroni.. and the rice.. everything just went together so well.. I'm told the Spam is the go to dish.. that'll be next time.. I'll definitely make a point to actually eat there.. read more

Regrettably slow but food is good. My pulled pork was like all fat--ugh. Chicken is standard teriyaki nothing special. Redeemable by way of two-for-one deal via Uber Eats. read more

This place always comes in clinch when we aren't sure what to eat. But to polish everything off, the macaroni salad here is the best you can get anywhere read more

It's a no go for me. For the price point, portion size was super small. The chicken had good flavor but was severely over cooked and dry. Not to mention, the green onions were missing. The macaroni salad was swimming in grease and hot. I won't be back but was glad I gave it a try. read more

Located inside of "Tempe Food Court", a ghost kitchen "food court", we ordered 3 places. This was one of them. The food wasn't bad, actually. The Honolulu Chicken was decently seasoned, and the chicken was high-quality. The "Luau Pig" (pork) was on the fattier side. I agree with previous reviews that describe the mac salad as "runny". Not sure I've ever experienced that before. read more

I have picked up food here twice on lunch, and both times have been good. Food has been made well, and it's been served out quickly. It's in the white building that says Let's Eat, and it's got other places in there, so it's just kind of a food pickup place. read more

Beckham was super helpful and amazing to talk to. He seems to really care about his job which is nice to see! The food is amazing and it's very easy to just pick up and grab for lunch because it is always so fast. Love this place! read more

First time trying Hawaiian Brothers. Mixed review for the Mixed plate. The Honolulu Chicken & The Molokai Chicken were tasty but overall too saucy. The rice was ok. The Mac Salad was so runny. I thought the reviews I read were exaggerating. Never had such runny Mac Salad. There are definitely better plate lunch places in Phoenix. I'm glad I used a coupon to buy it. read more

Jessi was an amazing help! He was truly the best! Great customer service. The food is so fresh and good as well. Highly suggest!

Not bad for a fast-food Hawaiin restaurant. Food was tasty, and a nice presentation. Requested no onions and the "greens" placed on top of the meal consist of a few vegies and giant slices of onions. Was easy to take off, but not necessary. Ordered the Mixed Plate item. The Hawaiin Pulled Pork was delicious! The chicken, tiny, over-cooked pieces. The standard macaroni salad side dish was watery. Could had been better overall. The to-go order was called in and we were advised they "are working on it right now" but it wasn't ready for pick up for another 30 minutes. Over promise but under deliver. If no other options, may try again. read more

Delicious. Fast service. Clean establishment. We order from here at least once a month

Great food and great service. order taker / cashier took the time to explain the menu. Food is healthy and a great price for lunch. read more

I absolute love the food, but the only problem is that this is the second time that I received my order with a thick bed of rice underneath the chicken. The large chicken plates are not cheap (even with your special offers) so when I receive less chicken because the compartment where the chicken is supposed to be was half filled with rice I was quite disappointed. The meal already comes with rice, so there no need to put a layer of "filler" so that I get less chicken. That's deceptive as well as as dishonest when I have ordered before and received straight meat with the rice and Mac salad on the side. read more

Well, we tried it tonight while in town. It's definitely not Hawaiian food, more like teriyaki chicken with added sugar and salt, like that's literally all you taste. The mac was literally mayo and ranch base. Not what we expected and will not be back. If you're looking for Hawaiian food, this is not the place. read more

My partner and I always order the same order every time, but we noticed a location change! The new location is nice, and a little further into Tempe than the last location. It looked like there's an area to sit inside now, which is new feature that the last location did not have. The new location also has dole whip options, which we will be sure to try next time! The food was the same, it was great as always. We always order the combo plate, Luau pork w/ Honolulu chicken, and extra Mac for both plates. The service was fast, both of the employees who assisted me were very helpful and kind, we will be back soon! read more

Great food! They had free food which is so helpful staff was absolutely amazing and so nice and welcoming.

My friend recommended Hawaiian bros and I have to say I wasn't impressed. I think the most stressful part was realizing that there were no cashiers and I have order from the kiosk. Then I was quite unsure about the pickup situation. I ordered the Large - Kilauea Chicken with a side of veggies. The Kilauea chicken wasn't much flavorful in my opinion. I liked their version Mac and cheese. My side of veggies I expected to be in a separate container, it was just thrown into the container. For it being a large, this meal wasn't a large serving. My friend said the Hawaiian bros in her city, the large Kilauea chicken can be two serving sizes for her. It was such a let down since my friend really recommended their food. read more

great customer service! Loved was amazing. Can't wait to come back! The decor was also cute!

Hawaiian Bros is a decent place if you are in the mood for something quick and flavorful, but it does not fully live up to the hype for me. The food tastes good and the ingredients seem fresh, but the portions can feel a little inconsistent and the price sometimes feels higher than what you actually get. The service is usually friendly, and the restaurant is clean, but it is not a spot I find myself craving often. Overall, it's not bad, just not amazing. read more

It's inside a ghost chicken. The Mac was cold and a little hard, tasted like it's been sitting out for hours. The chicken was surprising good and pork was meh. There was rice but it was too oily. Eating the mix of rice chicken and pork was not good due to the amount of oil covering the food. Things couldn't mix will due the oil overpowering everything. I didn't finish the Mac and sharted halfway through the meal. DO NOT EAT HERE, I just ruined my nice chair and boxers.

The food is not good at all , the best thing you can do is close your doors the only thing I had you could eat was the rice

Well that was disappointing. Food was actually good...don't Uber eats it though cost you 17.00 in fees and tips. I asked for extra sauce didn't get it. I ordered 3 different meals and they didn't even label them...they all look the same so we have to taste test to figure it out??!! That's just not smart... read more

Horrible customer service won't tell you if food is delayed won't tell you if they don't have items and then they expect you to contact the customer to tell them they don't have the items after making you wait 20 minutes read more

went to the new restaurant at paradise valley we each got a plate total 22$ wee had tender but dry teriyaki chicken. it was not fresh grilled. it was very over marinated in their sauce. chicken was dark brown it seems it was cooked thrown in sauce refrigerated overnight then reheated to serve. the menu is very small. so this should of been a home run not good read more

The worst Hawaiian food ever! The plates did not come with vegetables so I had to order them on the side. Big mistake!! They were not fresh and so hard I could eat them... the sticky rice was only sticky because it had too much water and was over cooked. The Mac Salad was awful!!! They Neva drained the noodles and all the water from boiling was still there... I hope the meat I was real chicken it appeared to have been soaking in the sauce it was made in. I got two type of chicken but they both tasted the same... Never again read more

My husband decided to try this spot on a whim and I am glad he did! He loved it so much, he brought a plate to me at work. I had the Huli Huli Chicken combo and it was amazing! It didn't even require any extra sauce. I was also a huge fan of their macaroni salad because it didn't seem to have too much mayonnaise and it was well seasoned! They serve up food quickly and the staff was friendly. A great spot to grab a quick bite at a good price. We will be back! read more

Unfortunately, this will not last unless they make some changes quickly. The order process is slow and is confusing. There was 1 person ahead of me in each of the self-serve lines and the manned register. The order screen does not do a great job of explaining the items. It took me 3 minutes to wait to place my order. It then took another 16 minutes to get my food. This was at 12:21pm, the restaurant was not that busy. Nearly 20 minutes to get food in an establishment that should have taken 5 minutes. As far as the food, meh. The rice was dried out, the macaroni salad was the worst example of Hawaiian macaroni salad. It was a ton of mayo and black pepper, that's all you could taste. It was not good. I ordered the Honolulu Chicken, the flavor was decent. Although, I'm nervous the chicken was not cooked completely, the texture was very suspicious. I will be able to tell in a few hours if it was. Quite a sad review for a place that has only been open for such a short period of time. I don't foresee going back anytime soon. read more

Small portion servings, the mixed plated was not two meat, only one. Under the meat was full of rice. Taste is 6/10, the rice was not cook perfectly- it was cooked soggy, and starchy. Meat wasn't cut evenly, the macaroni pasta needed to cook more, it doesn't taste "Authentic ". The teriyaki sauce was watery and not the expected thick sauce texture. Overall: Food taste: 6/10 Quality: 4/10 Presentation:2/10 Will I recommend this? NO. read more

The SPAM musubi tasted like generic spam, like Tulip or something. Spam musubi is really hard to mess up, and this was horrible. Yeah it was marinated, but the sauce didn't taste good either. (Hint: use reduced salt SPAM, and equal parts aloha shoyu and c&h sugar, marinade the spam in the mixture then fry spam) The chicken, basically all variations of teriyaki chicken. They have a "hulihuli" chicken but these guys don't know what hulihuli chicken is. Poor flavor with the Mac salad too. People need to stop looking up Hawai'i recipes and trying to make and sell plate lunches. This is NOT what plate lunches are like and will give people the wrong idea about Hawai'i food. I would not recommend this place. read more
