    Side of rice
    Tom M.

    Still the reigning champ of Hawaiian food in Vancouver! Not much has changed since my last review. The food is fantastic, the service is prompt, and my takeout was ready the second I walked in. The ambiance is always relaxed but friendly, I've tried other spots in the region, but they always leave me wishing I'd just come here instead. This is, and will always be, my go-to Hawaiian spot!

    It was o.k. Great seating space. Ordering was tough, I think they should have some menus available at the door so you can review items before getting up to the counter. I ordered Mochiko chicken and Teri beef. Mochiko chicken would have been BOMB if it was cooked at a lower heat, both had great flavor. If you miss home, the food will work.

    On a rainy afternoon, we came to seek some comfort food before we joined a jumping birthday party near by. Since our objective was to grab a quick bite, Hawaiian Style grill served this purpose wonderfully. The overall restaurant atomphere was very chill. There's no music playing in the background while everyone patiently waited for their number to be called. The staff at the register was not conversational but friendly enough to make a smooth transition. I read some previous reviews mentioning bad service, however, my experience was on par with what we experienced in Hawaii. We ordered the mochiko chicken and short rib combo. Overall we liked it as the meats were flavorful and the rice was good. We were surprised to find there was a layer of rice underneath the meat, but we were ok with that since we were not in the mood for lot of meat anyways. We also ordered a Hawaiian sun (juice drink) and enjoyed it. There were a lot of variety and I really enjoying picking/trying new favors. Overall, we liked this eatery and would return again.

    I was hesitant to try this place out but decided to give them a try. Pros: Big open seating dinning area. Lots of tables and space. I liked that it doesn't feel cramped. The decor was questionable. Food flavor is 9/10. Huli huli chickens cooked perfect. Rice was cooked perfect as well. Food amount 10/10. They give you a very decent amount of food for the price. I could not finish it all. I will probably make 3 meals out of it. Prices are fair. Lots of free parking. Areas of opportunity I waited 25 minutes for my 2 plates. Not to mention I had to wait 5 minutes just to order and no one was ahead of me. There was about 7 people behind me. One worker was bagging orders and the other other one was doing something on the side. No acknowledgements or sense of urgency. Staff that was working was not very approachable. No smiles, no thank yous or have a nice day. For a Hawaiian place I did not feel the aloha. Lots of people got their food ahead of me. If I ever came back, I would DEFINITELY order ahead of time. Overall the food is very good. But how you treat customers is extremely important.

    Partially eaten top layer of katsu gone, revealing the soggy bottom half.

    I ordered pickup from these guys on the way home and I had the lighter katsu and was disappointed because: 1. The chicken katsu is soggy and not crispy. Why? a) Because they put the teriyaki veggies below the chicken katsu. This made the bottom of the katsu soggy. b) there is no proper ventilation on the top of the plate for the steam to escape. 2. The veggies are cooked in a teriyaki sauce. Why? I would've been content with plain steamed veggies. The sauce was unnecessary and to me adding teriyaki sauce didn't make it a truly a light katsu. Mac salad is soo boring. It is literally a crescent shaped tubular noodle tossed in mayo. Nothing else. Some salt & pepper or tanginess woulda been great but this has no flavor. Add it yourself. Musubi? Uh i wish you guys tossed the rice in rice wine vinegar when it was freshly made and hot to add more flavor to it. Then u can roll it. How about placing the spam in the middle of the rice then wrap it with nori instead of at the top? Try it. Or how about adding a fried egg? I am use to spam musubi with fried egg and alot of flavor. This was not it. It's not bad but not great either it just seems to be there, made. I had their katsu about a month ago and it was perfectly seasoned and but almost soggy. Mac was always boring. Today, I was disappointed with the katsu. But its nothing an airfryer and my own seasonings at home can't fix including the mac salad where I can add things to it. I hope they can stay consistent serving good quality food. They do give u healthy portions but I did order the Ali'i size which is bigger than the regular. For all these reasons, fhe earn a 2.5-3 stars from me.

    Hawaiian Style Grill is truly an excellent place to eat Hawaiian food in generous portions at a great price. Most meals can be ordered regular size or ali'i (larger/king) size. They also offer lunch specials. We live over an hour away and still regularly make the trip to eat here because it's so good. We've had everything from chicken katsu to kalua pig and spam musubi. We've enjoyed it all! The dining area is pretty expansive, though some areas are sometimes blocked off. We've never had an issue with finding an open table, though. I've noticed they do quite a few takeout orders, so this prompted me to visit their website to see if they have an online ordering platform. They do! Hawaiian Style Grill also caters. After eating here many a time, I can say in good faith that the food is delicious, and that I've always left happy. I can't wait for my next lunch here!

    Chicken Katsu
    Stephanie V.

    This place hits the spot, we can't seem to find a good Hawaiian place near us but when we found them when we visit Vancouver we were stoked! We come regularly whenever in the area. We always get the chicken Katsu plate (regular) it's a huge serving size. We love the way everything is good and the macaroni does not disappoint. The place is pretty big lots of seating and the ambiance is usually pretty relaxed. Service is good but the food takes a little while (just like at most Hawaiian places) but worth the wait or call ahead.

    This is my go to order. Agedashi & the sweet and spicy edimame. I've been here several times and…read morethe freshness of sushi has always remained consistent. We live in Portland, OR but choose to go to Vancouver, WA as this is my sons favorite sushi restaurant as he is a "sushi connoisseur." The service is always stellar & the atmosphere very calming.

    A Sushi-Fueled Saturday Success!…read more We walked in on a chill Saturday afternoon--party of four--and scored front-row parking like sushi royalty. No wait, no fuss. Service? Super speedy and genuinely kind. A+ hospitality. Let's talk food (aka the stars of the show): Caterpillar Roll - Fresh, light, and beautifully presented. The kind of roll that makes you feel like you're eating healthy... even if you follow it with fried gyoza. Spider Roll - Crispy? Yes. Flavorful? Yes. But the flavors blended into each other a bit too much--more "symphony" than "solo act." Still enjoyable, just not a standout. Clam Miso Soup - A delightful surprise! Big, juicy clams swimming in a savory miso bath. A must-try if you're into seafood. Regular Miso Soup - Classic, comforting, no complaints. Fried Gyoza - Golden, crispy, and flavorful. Honestly, I could eat a whole plate solo and call it a day. Shrimp Tempura - Massive, crunchy, and satisfying. You'll want to share... but you won't want to. Seahawk Roll (aka Volcano Roll?) - Came in HOT (temperature-wise and vibe-wise). Bold flavors and satisfying heat. Crunch Munch Roll - Smoked salmon + shrimp = interesting combo. Tasty, but the smoked salmon kind of hogged the spotlight. Final thoughts: Everything looked great, tasted fresh, and came out quickly. A few rolls were more memorable than others, but overall it was a win. We'd definitely return for another round--especially that clam miso soup and shrimp tempura!

    Came in recently and the space looks way better than before. We havent came back in a while since…read morewe been exploring other places. The new renovation definitely feels more elevated, and honestly Vancouver needs more spots like this where you can enjoy a nicer atmosphere without having to drive into Portland. Service was great, staff was professional, attentive, and overall gave off a good vibe. It actually felt like they enjoy working there, which makes a difference. I did read on their webpage that they aim to bring authentic Japanese and Korean food. Personally, wouldn't consider it fully authentic, especially if you've traveled to Japan or the mainland, you'll notice the difference. The food leans more toward American style Japanese/Korean cuisine. That being said, the food was still good and satisfying. Not authentic, but enjoyable. We would come back and are interested in trying more items on the menu. I'll update my review if anything changes.
