We went for the first time and the food is quite tasty. I ordered the Bento Box. The bbq chicken needed some extra seasoning. But the katsu chicken was excellent. The fried fish and bbq pork were also very tasty. My husband really enjoyed his laulau and kahlua pork. I tried the kahlua pork and it was very good. Then we went back to order some of their fresh malasadas. They are delicious! SO GOOD! The sugar was a bit skimpy - so we had to add some extra. But amazingly good. read more

I had never eaten here before. I love the Hawaiian food in Marysville but I have a lot of door dash gift cards, so we went looking for a place to have food delivered somewhat late on May 10th. The online menu asked what two sides you want with the Loco Moco. It showed a plate with two burgers, two eggs on a large bed of rice plus gravy...and what looks to be macaroni salad for 13.75. It asks what you want for your first side. It asks what you want for your 2nd side. I am guessing you get 2 sides with the rice/burgers. I was not real sure. So I asked for 2 sides of macaroni. It asks for mini or 2.50 for regular. I am thinking they will give you reg. side macaroni for 2.50 more. I go back and ask for mini. I do not need that much macaroni. Very disappointed to open the take out container to find zero rice and one small burger with an egg sitting in gravy and 2 sides of macaroni. They need to make this more clear. You only get 2 burgers and eggs if you add 2.50 (regular size). If you choose mini its not for the size of the sides but way less meat. I believe the photo and wording were very misleading. We also ordered Mochiko Chicken....Macaroni salad and broccoli, also a mini. I had it once before, somewhere else, and loved it. Ordered a Hawaiian Chicken BBQ plate, again mini and 2 sides. Did not like either of them. Hawaiian chicken BBQ was like a chicken thigh flattened with soy sauce maybe...no sweetness etc. They both kind of tasted the same. My 2 adult kids barely ate any of it. This was a real treat for us on a very sad day and it was not what we were expecting.....The macaroni salad was just ok...if I added salt. Said We could save 15% with ordering more so we ordered the won tons. They did not come with sweet and sour sauce but sweet chili sauce. I did not care for it at all with the fried won tons. I will not be ordering from again. read more

This place is pretty good for the price if you're ever craving Hawaiian food! It's very similar to L&L Hawaiian BBQ. It's also a lot closer than having to drive all the way to Marysville for Hawaiian food. The portions are generous and each meal comes with sides and a free drink! The inside is pretty casual and designed for quick dining. The staff are also friendly. read more

Absolutely worth the price of admission!!! Juicy chicken and beef, along with the macaroni salad, just... CHEF'S KISS!! Cannot recommend this place enough, everything is good, my boys especially love the Spam Musubi (I mean, who doesn't?!). Everything we've ever ordered is delicious and have not had one bad thing ever. I know, I know, I'm gushing and hyping this place but I think it deserves to be a definite "Must Try" on your list. Happy eating, -Fj read more

Island Hawaiian BBQ - #3.Hawaiian BBQ Mixed Plate w/ Spam Musubi - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

I'm a sucker for value and Island Hawaiian BBQ might be the definition of value. The photo of the family pack and malasadas really spoke to me, so I ordered the same. Leftovers for days! Reminds me of the Hawaiian drive in spots that serve up affordable, heaping portions. Came to pick up my order and they offered me a drink which I thought was super considerate. I didn't have hands so didn't take them up on the offer, but that left a strong first impression. I also really appreciated the low carb options, definitely a solid spot after a gym session or for some protein. Small Family Pack - six heaping scoops of rice, mac salad, a side of fries, and then tons of meat. The chicken katsu was solid, breading was on the softer side but still tasty. Slightly on the dryer side but comes with lots of katsu sauce. Was tasty without sauce, as long as a bev was close by. BBQ beef was juicy and delicious with the sweet marinade. BBQ chicken was the leaner option to balance out options, providing high protein. Chicken could be more tender but wasn't too rough and plenty of teriyaki sauce provided. Malasada - under a dollar per malasada, these weren't out of this world, but still tasty (after all, it's just fried dough). Dough was fluffy and soft on the inside with a great crispy outside. Good amount of sugar coating, but I think they bounced around during transport so some inconsistency. read more

Came here for lunch after driving by this place multiple times. I've been looking for a good Hawaiian place because the others I've tried just weren't very good or had small portions. This place really packs the food enough for two meals! That is what I was looking for! Got the bbq mix combo with white rice and macaroni salad. The plate was delicious! Especially with the katsu sauce they have. They also had a free fountain drink with purchase as well! The food took a bit to come out which is great because you can hear the grill in the kitchen. Definitely will be back to try other combos! read more

Island Hawaiian BBQ - 3. Hawaiian BBQ Mixed Plate - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

I came in with high hopes and was excited to see a Hawaiian barbecue close to my work. I was not disappointed! I had the garlic fish which is, in my opinion, one of the harder dishes to get right in this type of restaurant. They made it beautifully! With big chunks of garlic and perfectly seasoned! The service was quick and efficient. The seating area is simple and meant for quick dining. If you're looking for Hawaiian Barbecue, you NEED to try this place out! read more

This place is very similar to L&L Hawaiian BBQ, both in menu and cooking style. For those from Hawaii, you'll love the katsu with the Hawaii style katsu sauce which is sweeter than the Japanese version, and my favorite of the two. They are the only ones that do Hawaii style garlic chicken so I'll be back here to get my fix. The portion sizes are very generous and the cost is incredibly reasonable. Will definitely be back to try out some other dishes. read more

As a Hawaii native, I can confidently say that Island Hawaiian Barbecue serves up the most authentic Hawaiian food I've found on the mainland. Every bite transports me right back to the islands - these flavors are the real deal, not some watered-down mainland interpretation of Hawaiian cuisine. The portion sizes are absolutely generous. You definitely get your money's worth here, and then some. What really sets this place apart is their outstanding customer service. Tonight we ordered takeout again, It's clear that the owners prioritize taking care of their customers - it's that genuine aloha spirit that makes all the difference. Every family meal from here ordered on UberEats feels like home, which is exactly what you'd expect from authentic Hawaiian hospitality. And let's talk about the prices - they're phenomenal! You're getting restaurant-quality, authentic Hawaiian food at prices that beat most fast food chains. The value here is unbeatable. Pictured is the small family meal, there's a lot of food... we ordered the same thing tonight. While I haven't had the chance to dine in at the actual location yet (I've been ordering delivery/takeout), the food quality speaks for itself. I do want to visit to get a feel for the ambiance (I'll update when i do!) If you're craving authentic Hawaiian barbecue with huge portions, friendly service, and incredible prices, Island Hawaiian Barbecue is your spot. Mahalo to the owners for bringing a taste of the islands to our community! read more

Island Hawaiian BBQ - Small Family Pack with a size order of Malasadas! - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

First time customer, ordered the LauLau/Pork combo and BBQ Chicken plate...LauLau was very dry and somewhat tasteless the pork also didn't have much flavor and was also dry, cabbage had an odd taste did not like, I did like the mac salad...Wife had the chicken plate and she did say it was very good but she would have preferred that the chicken skin was crunchy instead of limp. Authentic pork should have some of the fat drippings and somewhat salty with the hint of smoke infused into the meat, LauLau should also be moist, smoky and taro or spinach leaves should enhance the meats read more

Eco-conscience is not a priority for this new restaurant. They use plastic containers for both dine in and take out. Our party of 3 ordered various entrees and apparently the kitchen did not mark them. I observed 4 people at the front counter opening and closing each container numerous times. It appeared the staff were still trying to figure things out after 1 month. They eventually set them on a tray with napkins and plastic utensils. This was slightly redundant since there was a counter with sauces, utensils, and napkins so most guests (like us) thought we had to help ourselves. The teriyaki sauce was very watery. The food was ok. I liked the red bean sesame balls. Nice that they offered free fountain drinks. The plastic containers and wasted unused utensils did not sit well with us. We will not return. read more

Island Hawaiian BBQ - Plastics containers are used for dine-in - not a good practice IMO. - Hawaiian Near Me - Everett, Washington

We tried this new location Friday night. Really great staff and very friendly. Surprised that I left my change for a tip. Probably not a big tip kind of neighborhood but wanted to show my aloha. On that though they were not so hip to some pigeon slang for praise just nice young Asian folks. I ordered mochiko chicken (my usual lit ness test of a Hawaiian place is Saimin but I changed up). My wife ordered bbq beef. Both the mini variety which was plenty with a tad of leftovers for us. The chicken really tender juicy with a nice breading finish. Her beef was good however a bit dry but that's what happens to thin sliced beef cooked this way. The Mac salad was good but not "the best". Kim chee side was good however small. This is a great setup that should do well at very affordable prices! They included free Hawaiian juices which was a surprise! I usually buy these cans to drink at the beach after free diving to rinse my mouth of salt water but goes good with this food. I wouldn't call this the best ever but a very clean nice well run option in this area! We will be back this summer in the way to the Muk ferry for sure to try other dishes! read more

Yayyyy! So happy to discover a close by Hawaiian place for lunch near my work place. :) Came here with my coworker for lunch and we left stuffed and food coma out. Located in a strip mall area, this place is pretty easy to find. Parking is aplenty and service was pretty quick! Things to note: Food Options: A nice variety of food and combos! Stamp card: If you order the plates options, you can collect stamps to get that next free meal :) Food: Tried the Portuguese sausage musabi and the garlic chicken. Musabi was very tasty with a light gravy like texture sauce. ---As for the garlic chicken, love how crunchy the chicken pieces were! Sauce came separate but wasn't as garlicky as I thought it would be. Mac salad = yum yum and honestly, couldn't finish half of my portion since it was filling and big. ---Had a chance to sample the kahlua pork bowl and overall, it was tasty with a slightly saltier and charred flavor. Can't wait to come back again and try out more new dishes! read more

I was craving barbeque food. I found this restaurant on Yelp when I was in the area. As soon as I walked in I was surprised. There were a lot if people inside! That's a great sign. The staff was so nice & friendly. I noticed they just had big orders and it's lunch time, so the wait time was quite long. However, I'm happy because the food are pretty good. The portion is big. The price is reasonable. I believe because all of these reasons, people are keep coming. Recommended! read more

We ordered Togo. To me, the Kalbi was too salty. The portion was good. Lots of meats (mixed grills). read more

I came in here around 4:30 on a Saturday, it was like I witnessed the calm before the storm. I ordered with no problem before people started coming in and out, ordering lots of food. As a first timer, that gave me good vibes and showed how many people liked it. I got to try an assortment of different things (pictured) and really enjoyed them. I would definitely recommend their garlic chicken (fried.) The woman at the counter who took my order was very sweet, I was grateful her kindness and patience as my friend and I figured out our order. When I left, the staff thanked me for coming in. I really appreciated how friendly they were. I can't wait for them to open up a location in Lynnwood! read more

First time coming here, the price alone was shocking. I feel like a lot of other hawaiian style restaurants jack up the prices. I got basically two meals for under $20. The musubis were great, maybe a little rice heavy but nothing major. And the beef bowl was filling. Service was normal nothing memorable but they got my order right and gave me a free drink! read more

If you're looking for a no frills Hawaiian BBQ place with big portions and reasonable prices then come here. It reminded me a lot of the random Hawaiian Plate lunches you can get on Hawaii with a pretty big menu. While not amazing, it definitely is good and fulfills that craving. They are also currently giving away free drinks too. Great addition to the neighborhood. read more

First, the girl working the counter was very nice! The restaurant was really clean and comfortable. I ordered the chicken katsu and the chicken katsu musubi. Both were just ok. The plate portion was really big. The katsu sauce was really thin and tasted ok. The musubi didn't have much flavoring and the Mac salad had way too much mayo. I wish the katsu sauce tasted better and wasn't so runny. Epic part, they give you a free drink from the cooler! read more

Another new restaurant in Everett AND it's Hawaiian food? Heck yes! We couldn't decide what to eat and while searching on DoorDash for something different than the usual, I came across Island Hawaiian BBQ and realized I had never seen it there before. As soon as I realized how close it was, my husband and I instant decided to try that for dinner. The menu has lots of options and it was hard to decide so we ended up getting three meals to go. There were a couple people in front of us but the wait wasn't too long. We were even offered a couple of free drinks since they had just opened, so nice!! After we got our food and got home, we dug in. Everything was delicious! The Bento (combo 4) included BBQ beef, BBQ chicken, chicken katsu, fried fish, and spam. The box probably weighed 3lbs minimum, it was a ton of food! It came with a few different yummy sauces on the side that I forgot to take a photo of. The Garlic Chicken was perfectly fried and super tender, the sauce came on the side was AMAZING. The Loco Moco was standard but in a good way. We would absolutely get any of what we ordered again. Even my husband who doesn't usually like mac salad loved theirs! The food was so on point taste and price wise. Great service and super clean inside as well. Living less than 5 minutes away will be dangerous for us. Can't wait to try more! read more

There isn't a Hawaiian in sight but the Island Hawaiian BBQ spot hits the Aloha right on the spot. All their food selections were on point and nothing tasted too off from traditional Hawaiian plates. I'd say everything tasted really good but didn't blow the doors with amazing. The staff were extremely friendly and the portion sizes are very generous. The place is really clean. The restrooms and dining area was well kept. They have a condiments area that was kept organized and clean as well. All their food selections sauces, cutlery and napkins were stocked and they have plenty of options on the menu to satisfy your Hawaii. I got the spam and eggs. Everything was cooked to satisfaction. The over easy eggs were a little too cooked but they did a good job with it for the most part. Katsu was really good. Good cuts or chicken with a perfect breading. I'd say the edamame could have used some sea salt but that was done good as well. Veggie egg rolls were solid. If there's another gripe. Hardly any filling in their crab wontons. Extremely disappointing. Like a teaspoon of filling. Very sad. Musubi was packed with rice but rolled well with just the right amount of teriyaki sauce in there. A solid 4 stars. A couple of misses but the entire staff seemed like family and they treat you like theirs as well. If I'm in the area I'll definitely give this place my business. read more

I come here often and I have tried most of their dishes and they are fine. Good portion for the price. except for the poke. If you are pacific islander or hawaiian you will be disappointed. You see They soak the tuna with soy sauce instead of sesame oil and idk if it was chili powder or chili flakes but it was awful, I had to throw the rest of it. And this is what you get for $11 poke. read more

These folks are the real deal. I got a #4 Bento Box and it transported me back to O'ahu! The food is great and the portions are generous. One meal gave me enough food for THREE meals! And I don't have a skimpy appetite! I loved the malasadas too, just the perfect note to end on. They even gave me a free drink with my meal :) The service was so kind. They were willing to answer questions, were super nice when I came in. I felt welcomed immediately and everyone seemed happy to see me! The inside of the restaurant is very simple but a great place to stop and grab a bite. Clean and well-organized with some nice music playing. I'd love to stop by and have lunch here again! read more

Having lived in Hawaii for 11 years, I find myself occasionally finding a good Hawaiian BBQ place for comfort and often left with a hint of disappointment UNTIL I FOUND ISLAND HAWAIIAN BBQ! I ordered the large low carb (cuz girl can't choose and this combo seems to allow me to try the most) and it was very generous portions and very tasty. Service was also very nice, I was greeted and ordered shortly. The wait wasn't long at all, and I left very excited (b/c even the smell was right). The place is simple and clean, and reminded me of similar places in Kaneohe area. I'll definitely be back... probably very soon... and I can't wait! read more

So happy to have a plate lunch place in Everett. A coworker recommended so we have it a try and so glad we did! Ordered the chicken lover, mochiko, katsu, and bbq with rice and Mac salad And the chicken cutlet plate. Their katsu/cutlet was really good, juicy & crispy, bbq chicken was well flavored. The mochiko was a fillet style and I've never had it that way, it had good flavoring but was maybe marinated too long as it was a bit strong. The mac was a bit firm for me but taste was good just a bit on the salty side. We will definitely be back to try their other menu items. read more

*DELIVERY ORDER* Giving 1 star because the loco moco was really just "meh" and 2 stars for the short rib seafood combo. She said the short rib was "okay" and the seafood was "okay" MAYBE we'll give it another try in-house, but delivery was really not worth it. read more

First of all, THANK you for opening in Everett so close to me. I have been here so many times since they have opened last spring. The first week I think I came back at least 3x. I love the Beef plate and malasadas. Their mac salad is really good too. My kids love their spam musubi. We will for sure keep this in our rotation! read more
