    My friends and I stopped by Lilo's during our Oregon road trip and enjoyed the gigantic portions of food the restaurant had to offer. We arrived just before they were going to close, so we got the food as takeout and ate it outside on their picnic tables. I particularly liked the macaroni salad, but there was also plenty of meat and rice in the meal as well. I wish the sauce was a bit stronger, however, I know I tend to enjoy food with stronger sauces, so don't let my judgment prevent you from giving this place a try.

    One of the best!!!

    Once in a while my wife and our kids will take a drive from Happy Valley, OR to eat this amazing food! i've tried multiple Hawaiian places but this place has a special spot in our hearts. Very delicious food not salty and not bland just perfect!

    It's like the best mix of American style bbq with Hawaiian style sides! The bbq is not overly saucy and perfectly done. Get the steamed broccoli!! The perfect balance

    A snowy winter day in da Hood had us craving a sunny lunch. Let's go to Lilo's. Universal expectations for any style BBQ joint is the meat needs to be moist & tender and memorable sauce. Kaumaha sad to say pulled pork was way dried out dude. 2oz of BBQ sauce is not going to soften it up. At least the employee was nice enough to give us an additional 2oz though he said he was supposed to charge for it. With dry bread to sandwich it made it to dry to eat and had to open it up and fork it. Rice was soggy :( Mac salad creamy but no flavor. Coleslaw had a crunchy snap but tasted just like the mac salad. Flank Steak was better but a bit dry also. Reggae music in the background might not be exactly a Hawaiian vibe. C'mon give me some Honolulu ukulele not Caribbean. Mahalo & hui hou.

    If your going in warmer weather they have outdoor seating next to the smoker that they use to make this delicious food. Great portions for the price would recommend for anyone needing a pick me up.

    Stopped here for dinner on a day trip to see Herman the Sturgeon at the Bonneville Fish Hatchery. It was an extra 21 miles to get to Hood River from the hatchery and worth every mile. Each of the four of us had something different covering the meats from pork to chicken to beef and they were all excellent. The sides were great, the portions were large, the service was fast and friendly, the experience was ideal. Try the POG - pineapple, orange, guava - drink, too!

    Having been to Hawaii several times, maybe I just have too high a standard. Food - well it was edible. The pork was dry and tasteless, how does one mess up rice? I also ordered extra pineapple, which they did NOT include in my order. Service - fair, basically indifferent. I don't think he wanted to be there, but he wasn't rude or anything. Prices - average, but not a good value based on the quality of food. Parking - plenty of parking.

The brisket was very soft and the ribs fell off the bone but the tiniest cup of bbq sauce I've ever gotten with takeout was not very flavorful. The rub on the meat was dry and had large mustard seeds. I left the ordering to my spouse and he came back with just 4 slices brisket and 5 ribs - no sides - for $44! Maybe the sides make a difference? Maybe moving here from Memphis makes a difference? When you've had ribs there nothing compares! Either way my vote is an hour and 45 minutes on a Saturday is not worth the wait.

Never had a refill offered the entire time there nor did anyone around us. We got up to pay for drinks and leave that's food when our food came out and hour later. So, it was thrown in To-go boxes, no bag, no utensils, no paper towels, the pulled pork sandwiches were burnt on the bottom bun and cold and stale on the top bun. The meat was dry and cold, the sandwich had mayo even though the waitress told us it did not also the menu didn't show mayo in the ingredient list. The Mac and cheese was old mush looked like it was a week old. The waitress was on her phone and the cook just looked like he had nothing to do. Won't ever go back there.

Everyone else is already finishing up their drinks and meals. Wanting just one drink after a long day, I head to the bar! My wife asks me to get her one too. Here's where it gets bizarre. Kickstand has a bar...well, it looks like a bar. But what I found out is that it's just for looks because it doesn't act like a bar. I thought ordering two cocktails and paying for my drinks would be easy, like it is at every bar in town. But the bartender, I mean employee standing behind a bar, asked if I was with the large group. I stated, "yes, I was." Then she proceeded to tell me that the drinks would be on someone's tab. But I showed up late...I don't know what's happening. I don't know who's paying for the "tab". I just wanted to buy two drinks and walk away. But that wasn't allowed at Kickstand. Then another employee walks up and attempts to take my drink order. Super confused, I tell her the employee standing behind the bar just took my drink order. And then we proceeded down the tab conversation again. The second employee said because "we" were a party of 8 or more, I couldn't pay for my own drinks and I they would have to put it on the party's tab. But again, I don't know who owns the tab. If it was the woman having the birthday, I didn't want to add to her bill...on her birthday. Then they suggested I "could just Venmo" the party girl. No! I want to just order two drinks and have Kickstand take my money. Why wouldn't they just take my money?! The place was dead tonight, other than the 5 or so small daycarel families, sitting at their own tables, that made up the "party". I canceled my drink order and walked away out of protest and principal. When asked if I was with the big party, I should have said no I guess. Lesson leaned for next time, if there is a next time. Kickstand, you're so difficult and frustrating!!

The food was delicious; each of us ordered something different and everyone was very happy with their meal. I got the salmon fish and chips, and it was SO good. I'm so used to fish and chips being made with cod or other white fish, so this was a fun change. Despite being a pub, this place is family-friendly. The kid's menu was perfect for my little nephew, and my sister was very pleased with the quality of his burger meat and the fact that you can sub fries for veggie sticks for kiddos. You don't see that sort of thing very often. We had a great time!

We decided to sit inside, please be aware that it might be a bit cold depending where the air vent is located in conjunction to where you're sitting. The service was okay. My husband ordered his burger with bacon but it didn't come with bacon. However, we were charged for the bacon on his burger.

They have a nice patio area with a few (4-5) tables that are covered. We got there super early and opted to sit outside since the weather was so nice. The service was fantastic and our waitress was super friendly. We discovered that she has ties to KC so I always love that. I started with an Adeline blackberry sour. It's pretty to look at and so delicious to drink. Sours in Oregon are hands down the best. I wish we had more of it in KC but I highly recommend that you get sours and ciders if you're in the PNW. For lunch I ordered the Club Sandwich: Sweetheart ham, hickory-smoked turkey, Tillamook white cheddar, Applewood smoked bacon; topped with lettuce, tomato, chipotle mayo. It normally comes on sourdough but I swapped it out for ciabatta. First off, it's a HUGE club sandwich. Lots of meat that had amazing flavor. Not some sad deli sandwich at all. The ciabatta had great chew and complemented the sandwich perfectly. No complaints here! Did I eat it all? Yes, and that was a great plan because it kept me going for the next 24 hours that ended up being a cluster that resulted in no food being available. Sandwiches come with chips or a garden salad but I opted for a different side with an up charge. Let's talk about the Oregon Blue Salad: spring mix, dried cranberries, honeycrisp apples, Rogue Creamery Oregon Blue crumbles, and maple candied walnuts; tossed in an apple cider vinaigrette. So GOOD! You can get it by itself and it would make a great meal. Everything was so fresh. Again, not a single complaint. If you are ever in the area, please stop in. Everything was amazing and I can't wait until I return. Double Mountain is on my list to come back to! Highly recommend!
