    Veggie Rolls
    Amelia C.

    Service was truly excellent. They start you with complimentary pork rinds. I ordered the garlic chicken BBQ bowl and it was really flavorful. This dish had a pit more teriyaki influence than I was expecting but still delicious. Want to come back here to try other things on the menu. Very large portions. Casual ambiance that is perfect for a lunch outing.

    WOW. Price, value, quality. From Top to bottom Hawaiian Style BBQ is a 5 star restaurant. I ordered the 2 meat plate. Hawaiian Chicken and Short Rib with a side of Hawaiian rolls, cabbage kimchi, and macaroni salad. Everything I had was amazing. My girl ordered the pork plate. I personally liked the pork more than the short rib, but my girl preferred the short rib. Everything was flavored amazingly. My new favorite restaurant in Augusta.

    BBQ COMBO PLATE LARGE (marinated grilled chicken, beef teriyaki, beef short ribs). White rice and macaroni salad.

    Driving through Augusta for vacation and decided to stop here. MAN! This was the best ever! Everything was excellent. Fast and friendly service and we absolutely cleared this plate. Big portions! But it was excellent. I've never had macaroni salad that good. We might even go back on our way home haha!

    Walking into Hawaiian Style BBQ in Augusta felt like stepping back onto the islands. I was immediately greeted by a warm, friendly mohine who made me feel right at home. Hawaiian music was playing in the background, setting the perfect vibe. I've visited Hawaii many times, and I can honestly say this is one of the best Hawaiian restaurants I've been to on the mainland. Period. Food: They started us off with chicharrón (pork rinds) that were seasoned perfectly--crispy, flavorful, and I'm pretty sure they were made in-house. Absolutely delicious. I paired my meal with their lilikoi party punch (with rum), and it was phenomenal--sweet, tangy, refreshing, and not too strong. For my main plate, I ordered the Hungry Hawaiian lunch plate, which included Korean BBQ short ribs, kalua pork, and Hawaiian BBQ chicken, with rice, mac salad, and kalua cabbage. The portions were enormous--easily enough to feed 3-4 people. I ate half and still had plenty left over. * The kalua pork was tender, juicy, and full of authentic island flavor. * The Korean BBQ short ribs were cut perfectly, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and clearly marinated for at least 24-48 hours. * The BBQ chicken was smoky, juicy, and absolutely spot-on. Service & Ambiance: Service was outstanding--attentive, kind, and welcoming. My server, Shonnalynn, was one of the best servers I've had during my entire stay in Augusta. She was attentive, genuine, and truly made me feel at home. That level of care elevated the whole experience. Hats off to the kitchen as well--Ms. Megan, the chef, is one of the better auntie cooks I've had the pleasure of tasting from here in Georgia. Her flavors, execution, and authenticity brought me right back to the islands. The atmosphere overall was pure kamaʻāina (family-style comfort), making you feel like you were eating in a Hawaiian home. Extras: For dessert, I tried the banana fritter, deep-fried hopia-style, dusted with powdered sugar and drizzled with caramel. It was the perfect sweet finish. Another nice touch: the menu also features Filipino dishes, which shows how the owners beautifully blend Hawaiian and Filipino culture into their food. Final Verdict: This is hands-down a must-try spot in Augusta if you're looking for something beyond southern food. Hawaiian Style BBQ delivers authentic island flavors, generous portions, and heartfelt service. I'll absolutely be back--and I 100% recommend it to anyone in town. Mahalo!

    First, the waitress was very welcoming and kind. Complimentary pork rinds came out, what a tasty snack. I got the 2 meat combo which comes with 3 sides. The pulled pork was very salty, but these are soy sauce based bbq sauces. Teriyaki beef was yummy and those sweet potato fries were definitely handcut! This is one of the better places to eat in the area.

    First food stop in Augusta for the Masters. The great reviews weren't lying. I would give it a solid 4.5 / 5 stars. Worlds better than an L&L and surprisingly good for a smaller town in Georgia. The complementary pork rinds were icing on the cake. The decorations were fitting with Hirie playing in the background. I joked to my uncle to order a drink and show his Hawaiian ID. The food was very good. Mac salad hit the spot and the kalbi was great. The kimchi sides were a nice touch to balance the rice. I saw the adobo on the menu and was bummed we weren't there on the right day to try it. I'll try to work our schedule around when we visit the Masters next time.

    Great food and customer service. My friend was visiting Augusta, so we decided to try this place out and we both thought it was decent. The grill chicken bowl with rice was a clean meal packed with protein, yet extremely savory because the chicken was grilled and marinated well. You can also customize the bowl by choosing two meat choices and the option to add or remove vegetable options. They also give free fried pork skin as appetizer, which was nice. The cons of this place was the price. We both thought it was fairly expensive and my friend thought the kimchi wasn't that good. The bowl looks pretty small, but it's actually packed with rice and really filling. If you like fresh kimchi, it's not bad, but if you like the fermented kinds, this isn't it. The staff was very friendly and helpful in explaining to us first timers on what a Hawaiian bbq is. Definitely will be back!

    Aloha from Oahu, Hawaii! Very blessed by the service here. I haven't eaten real Hawaiian food since leaving Hawaii and this has been the closest I've been able to get to home. The hostess, server and chef were all very kind and allowed me to sample the poke before committing to making a full order. My partner and I both had the poke bowl, 2 choice of protein: garlic chicken, and bbq chicken. 10/10 The serving size is big and worth it. We also had the musubis and it was spot on! Just like home

    I'm a BIG fan of all things Hawaii, and this place brings the aloha spirit to Augusta, GA. This food made me feel all the feels and took me back to the foodtrucks on Kauai. The service was excellent and the reccommendations were on-point. The portions are huge, and there's no way you'll leave hungry. I got the BBQ chicken and my husband got the kalua pork. If you do nothing else, don't sleep on the lumpia appetizer. Made from scratch and delicious! You absolutely MUST try their mai tais, because they're so affordable and come in the most adorable, quality tiki glasses! If you are like me and want to take a tiki glass home, they're only $15. It is a little hot in the restaurant, so if you're temperature sensitive, grab it to-go. Otherwise, pull up a chair and enjoy some 5 star Hawaiian cuisine!

    I am so excited to discover this place! I live in Columbia, SC and I'll gladly drive an hour to satisfy this craving. I've lived in Hawaii and I'm from California and I've been saying for ten years that I miss Hawaiian BBQ and we don't have it. I can't believe it's in Augusta! We got Mac salad, Kalua Pork, rolls, rice, cabbage, and lumpia. It was all delicious. It's pricey but you get a ton of food, so sharing is a good idea. The ambiance is relaxing and gives some Hawaiian vibes. Service was good! I can't wait to go back.

However, when it comes to the main event, the experience can be a bit of a mixed bag. The marbled brisket, while promising in cut, fell short on execution. Served noticeably lacking in heat, the meat suffered in texture, resulting in several sections that were tough and required far more chewing than proper low-and-slow barbecue ever should. Fortunately, the sides completely saved the plate. The potato salad was well-balanced and creamy, and the baked beans packed rich, hearty flavor. To cap it off, the signature cornbread muffins--served as two bite-sized, sweet delights--were absolute perfection and easily the highlight of the meal. While the brisket needs better temperature control and tenderness to justify a return for the smoked meats, Jim 'N Nick's still delivers if you're there for top-tier sides and legendary cornbread.

    First I'll discuss the food (excellent), then service and comfort (pretty good), and finally move…read moreon to other factors (amusing but also disturbing). I've been disappointed by too many barbecues, even in the South where they are known for the genre. Patriot Smokehouse restored my faith that great barbecue must still exist. I got a 2 meat platter with two sides. Since I was camping I also ordered an extra meat and two more sides to go. Plenty for the lunch and two more meals the next days. All the meats were very good to excellent, fork tender but not falling apart, lots of smoky flavor and visible "bark". And each meat had a completely different spice rub, which I learned were all designed in house. I have a lot to cover so just a few words on each: Pulled pork: a good mix of mostly chopped with not much shreds; lots of flavor even without adding sauce. Brisket (the 2nd of my two-meat platter): tender and fork-cuttable, a bit too thinly sliced for my liking. Baby-back ribs: maybe the best I've ever had. No disagreeable gristly parts, and with an unusual "hammy" flavor (maybe from brining?) Sauces: they have 4 sauces, and they bring you as many as you request. All invented in house. A tomato-based, a mustard-based, a vinegar based, and an extra hot&spicy. I tried all but the vinegar and liked them all but especially the mustard. Now the sides. Potato salad: the potato chunks were not overcooked, a bit mayonnaisey but excellent due to the tanginess and bite of the mustard and who knows what else? Fried okra: well, I had to try it, and if you're determined to eat okra (rather than use it to thicken a gumbo) then fried is the only way - and they nailed it. Baked beans: sauce thick, sweet, and smoky, not the best not the worst. Garden salad (don't judge me; I needed some greens): nothing special; just iceberg lettuce, sliced tomatoes and onions, with shredded cheese; choice of dressing (I had Italian) Quantities: All sides were of reasonable size. The 2-meat platter wasn't balanced though; more than enough pulled pork and not enough brisket. The ribs: a half rack (how many is that - 6?) Other foods: The pecan pie was excellent with sufficient pecans on top, a filling that was not oversweetened, and a good crust. The strawberry pie: not what I expected. It wasn't a fruit filling but more like a mousse. Good for what it was, but I wouldn't order it again. Surprisingly they do not sell cornbread. Drinks: Lemonade, sweet tea, or ice coffee all come with the meal. Free refills on drinks. I got lemonade which was a bit weak but not too sweet. I don't think they serve alcohol. Service: Took slightly longer than I expected but she (cashier, waitperson, mother of the two chef brothers) did come by with a drink refill and kept me updated. She was pleasant and answered my questions about the restaurant's history and other things when asked. Ambience: first thing that struck me was the smoke. The first time I stopped by (to check it out for the next day as I had just eaten) they must have had a slight smoker malfunction because it was visibly wafting through the room - but not too thickly. Ahh, wood smoke and meat drippings; enticing! That's when I knew I had to come back. The room was concrete floored, wood trim stained by years of smoke, plank tables with clear vinyl coverings. Real silverware was provided and plenty of napkins. There was a TV but it was small and the sound was off. It was playing "Fail Army" the whole time which was fun! The music was alt-country, old rockabilly, and bluegrass; a nice mix. I should stop now but I won't. On to the "other factors". As you can guess from the name "Patriot Smokehouse" there's a theme here. American flags, "Don't Tread On Me", and the waitress/mother was wearing a silly red/white/blue hat and a shirt saying "God, Country, and Freedom" or something to that effect. The symbols abounded, covering the walls. It wasn't all cliché though. A poster titled "Weapons Of the American Revolution" provided at least some interesting reading, and a cartoon of a chicken, pig, and cow titled "Cluck, Oink, Moo" was cute. But then there's the sign on the front door "Lawfully Concealed Weapons Are Welcome Here". That sign is not a joke. Of course they are - and that's fine. But do you have to spell it out in big bold letters and offend those who might be uncomfortable about this? Some compassion would be appreciated. The newspaper review on the wall described it as "unabashadly patriotic" but that's not patriotism - it is jingoism. Want to make America great? That takes compassion, empathy for people different from yourselves, and humility. Judging by the theme here I don't expect that a move to "greatness" if it happens will start here. But I loved the food, enjoyed my conversation with the mother, and the people watching. I'd unhesitatingly come back and recommend it wholeheartedly.

Please put a sign in the window on the closed side. When you pull up to the entrance, you'll smell the smoke from the grill in the air! There's also a huge grill out front that you simply can't miss! I was quickly greeted upon entry. I ordered 2 rib plates with potato salad and a pint of hash, smoked wings weren't available this particular day. Since I've gone back during lunchtime, specifically to try these smoked wings. Unfortunately, they were closed both times. I should have checked their hours prior. Located their hours on their FB page. They're open 11-5 Wednesday-Saturday. Onto the food...The ribs and potato salad were ok or unremarkable to me. I guess I'm a little picky, but I didn't see a smoke ring nor taste the smoke at all. Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I did go a little late. Maybe the ribs were warming awhile. Not sure, but I'll give it a try earlier next time along with the smoked wings and update my review as necessary. My husband and I both really loved the hash and rice!!!

I came at around 3pm but it's advisable to come earlier when they open at 11:30am cause the food sells out fast! They have ribs, chicken, turkey wings, pork chop, and so much more. I got the smokehouse chicken with hash and rice with mac and cheese. The chicken is smoked to perfection and you get good flavor all the way through the whole piece of chicken. It's really tender too and tastes even better with the bbq sauce. The chicken has the best smokey flavor that I've never had anywhere else before. The hash and rice is also really good with lots of flavor and not too salty at all. The Mac and cheese is great too. I don't know what they put in it but it's delicious. The mango lemonade is perfect to wash everything down with (just a little too sweet for my preference). I definitely want to come back again to try their ribs and pork but I need to remind myself to come earlier so everything won't be sold out by the time I get there. I wish i knew about this place earlier because they seriously have good legit bbq. Also wish they had a sign in the front of the restaurant so it's easier to find. But hey if you know you know.
