Hamburger steak was awful. They don't use same pattie as the sandwiches. Ordered a mini and got two smaller pattie's that were probably pre-cooked several hours ago. Should be made to order! Like biting into rubber. Wth!!! Ate one of the pattie's and dumped the rest. $11 wasted. read more

Chicken from the Katsu Curry was dry and chewy. Chicken from the Eggplant stir fry: every piece burnt on one side, unappealing and unappetizing. read more

Ordered a bbq burger and fries , it was $8.50. The burger had a sour smell and the fries wasn't worth $4. I get more value and better quality at Diners upscale in kalihi. read more

The food is disgusting. Found out that it's under a new owner thought he couldn't do to much change but I am wrong food is disgusting. We have been dining here for many years this is no longer a place to eat. Yuck.....,,, read more

There portions is amazing for the price and the flavor OMG! One of our favorite places to dine every time we come to Oahu..

Food was okay. But the customer service could have been better. I was standing in the register area ready to place my order while the cashier took her sweet time talking to her co-workers and totally ignoring my question about their menu. read more

Great customer service, was greeted upon entering Workers was polite and nice Great Wait time it was only about 5-10mins Fresh food, got 2 Teri burgers, Fries and Got a Mini Curry Plate Definitely will come back to this location. Thank you read more

This place is pretty good. Best of the Loco Moco BBQ franchises I've been to. I always get the spicy dip chicken with greens instead of mac salad and rice. read more

Have not been to this Loco Moco location in quite sometime. Ordered a mini loco moco and it was not good at all. The hamburger patty was dry and tough, gravy was salty and macaroni salad had so much mayonnaise and had an off taste. Although their prices have gone up, their food quality should not go down. That leaves a very bad taste in the customer's mouth. Very disappointed and will not be returning anytime soon. read more

Very quaint place.. local food for the local cravings.. good prices, portions are decent and delicious!! Been here a few times and it never disappoints!! Service is friendly and courteous.. and I know that when I'm in the area again I'll probably stop in again read more

LOCATION: Loco Moco Drive Inn in the Kapolei Shopping Center between Fantastic Sams's and Napa Auto Parts. There is lots of free parking right in front the store and all around the shopping area. SERVICE: It was a Sunday when we ordered two regular and one mini take out plate lunches at 11:35am and received the order at 11:50am. Their signs indicate foods are cooked when ordered. The menu is listed on three monitors that appear to be very busy and confusing. TASTE: We ordered a regular size pork cutlet plate lunch, regular size hamburger steak plate lunch and mini teri plate lunch. The pork cutlet plate came with two scoops rice and macaroni salad. The pork tasted overcook, was cut up in pieces and was topped with gravy. The mini teri plate came with one scoop rice, macaroni salad and a thick slice of cabbage under the meat. Some pieces of the meat were overcooked and cold, all were topped with teri sauce. The hamburger steak was given away therefore, not able to give a rating. PRICE: The price for the regular size plate lunch is $10.00 each and $7.95 for the mini plate. Taste and price = not going back. read more

I've been going to Loco Moco since they open, many years ago. Loco Moco, Hamburger Steak, Chicken Katsu & the Burgers are definitely my go to. This morning, I ordered a breakfast plate with fried rice & a grilled cheese sandwich. I made a mistake ordering my breakfast plate with fried rice, it was the kind of fried rice you would normally get at a chinese restaurant. Just rice with carrots, peas & celery (no meat). Then I was disappointed when I opened the wrapper to my grilled cheese sandwich was made with wheat bread :( I was never asked what type of bread I wanted, but isn't it always made with white bread. This review is just about the food. The customer service is always great when I go there & I will still be a loyal customer - I just won't order fried rice lol. read more

Loco Moco - Barbeque Near Me - Kapolei, Hawaii

The people are very welcoming. They have a wide selction of food. We love there burgers and or loco moco, hamburger steak. Best fries. I admit we've had some not so good experiences last year. Seems they've been working heard on making changes according to past given critiques. We didn't like the fish or mix plate ( which we threw away shortly after) about a year ago. Maybe keep items they are known for and eliminate where nec. read more

My favorite is the Chop Steak plate. Lots of stir fried vegetables. The beef is tender. Dad's favorite is the Mochiko Chicken plate. The chicken is slightly sweet and tender. Tisha's favorite is the garlic chicken. The chicken is sweet and savory. They give big portions in their plates. I always enjoy the Strawberry Slushy float. It has a great sweet strawberry flavor. Staff is friendly and helpful. They bring our plates and drinks to our table. read more

Wandering around Kapolei after a long day of shopping, I was pretty hungry. As "the bag carrier" I knew what I was getting into. Push the cart, carry bags, and park the automobile. I kind of threw out there that I wanted something local plate lunch style, so the girlfriend Yelped up Loco Moco Drive Inn on her new phone and off we went. It's located in on of Kapolei's first strip malls. A small little place that is a bit gritty, but those are the best places to find great local food, right?! I ordered one of their meaty specials that had bbq beef, bbq chicken, and a kalbi rib. It comes with a side of mac salad and two scoops of rice. The chicken was really tender and nicely flavored. It was light and not "old" tasting like some restaurants pre-cook their food. This one tasted like it was fresh off the grill and seemingly it probably was. The kalbi ribs were just as tasty, the only drawback being that I got only one. It really left me wanting one more at least. The bbq beef wasn't too good. This one was tough, over cooked, and did seem like it had sat a bit. I also had a sample of my girlfriends mochiko chicken and it was pretty good as well. It had a light mochiko flavor, but was nice and crunchy. Overall, I would definitely stop by again. The parking is plentiful in the strip mall lot. read more

Been searching high and low for a proper cheeseburger, this place really came through. Fries were on point as was the chicken katsu.

I went back to Loco Moco Drive Inn after 9 month and the inside looked totally different, which made me think I was at a wrong place! It is completely renovated with nice seating and illuminated brand-new menu on the wall. The food came out very quickly and the girls at the counter were very nice. They are open early and the only good place to eat I found so far in Kapolei. I definitely will be going back often. read more

This is the second time I've been here. The first time the service was terrible, empty restaurant and waited a couple minutes to take my order. On top of that they were out of kimchi for the kimchi fried rice when there's two grocery stores right next to them. This time same thing! Two girl in the front working cashier with their back turned and I had to wait a couple minutes for my order to be taken. I got the kimchi fried rice combo with spicy pork and the rice was mush, no flavor of kimchi, and I don't even think they fried it on the grill. 16 bucks down the drain. read more

service is always fast and friendly. they are one of the few places that still offer a chopped steak plate!

Was looking for a place to get eats, was about to go for KFC when a local directed me to Loco Moco. For me it's a Day 4 on the Island as I'm here in vacation from England. Best food I've had since I got here! Fantastic! They would have got 5 stars had I not been accused of being an Australian. Definitely somewhere I want to eat from again before I ship out home. Thank you for a great Hawaiian Experience... Andy. Wiltshire, England read more

I stopped by to get a quick bite to eat at 9:30a on 5-16-18. I ordered the teriyaki steak burger deluxe. They charge extra for deluxe (tomato, onions, and lettuce). Everything was $6.00. I enjoyed it. My teriyaki burger deluxe was juicy with the mayonnaise and tomato, onions, and lettuce on a small bun, but they gave me a lot of teriyaki and it was made to order. I will be coming back again to enjoy another burger in the future. read more

I liked this place up until I got a "Kalua pig w/cabbage" mini plate for my son. It literally had no meat in it. It should have been called a Cabbage plate. I'm actually really pissed that they think they could actually serve this to customers, or was it just my plate?!? Also the visible pieces of "meat" was more fat. Good thing I had a chicken plate so I could share with him. It's ridiculous! I'm not going back to this place anymore. read more

Customer service here is always good. I love that the cashiers walk out your plates to you! ;) They have the same menu as any other loco moco, but not all foods are cooked the same =| Example: their garlic chicken is horrible!! I always can't seem to remember which loco moco has the better chicken and I always end up getting the garlic chicken from here forgetting that THIS is the one that's horrible! The chicken isn't really chicken! They give you pieces of fried skin soaked in garlic sauce. There is hardly any meat! And if there is meat its rubbery and hard! They might as well name this plate "crispy fried garlic chicken skin" As I sat there eating skin, I heard a lot of people ordering the garlic chicken. Maybe they like it that way but I'd rather eat pork grinds than that!! read more

A reliable meal. Kinda pricey but still decent for the food. I like their options better than I like the ones at L&L. And they also have dessert options so you can round everything out. Food is always made to order. read more

Came here for a quick late lunch... the staff was very friendly & greeted you with a smile. What you see is what you pay hmm that's great! The prices are reasonably price. Order at 147pm the wait is kind of long for food on the down side... but understanding since they were people before us, but it seems to me that it looks like only one cook but the food came out in a timely manner and delivered to the table =) I got the mochiko chicken (mini plate) with a small raspberry ice tea it came with decent amount of chicken to rice and mac salad ratio. The taste was yum, the chicken wasn't dry or burnt it was fried to perfection. The mac salad wasn't to bland or overly dressed in mayonnaise but it wasn't the greatest. But no complaints Dad got the fried chicken mini plate he said it was good Mom got the mini garlic shrimp and she devoured it, u had a piece and it was good I mean you can't compare it to like Northshore but it was good For three people 25.50 that's not bad I'm full and satisfied enough said will be coming back if I'm lazy to cook or need a fix of chicken lol read more

I actually give them a 2.5 star . They lost the other 2.5 due to the rudeness of the customer service worker. The first time I ate from there I ordered from door dash . The food was plentiful and delicious. I was out one day and I decided to go there and grab lunch. The prices were great , the food was delicious and plentiful again but the lady at the front attitude stinked (if that's a word). Here we go again. I 'was currently on quarantine so I decided to get food delivered from DoorDash. I chose to have Loco Moco. As I was reading the menu I had a question about a chicken special so I called the store . First of all when the lady picked up the phone she didn't say anything. She didn't even acknowledge the fact it was loco moco. She just put the phone down for close to a minute then picked it up and said " thanks for holding " . In reality she never asked me to hold. When I asked her what comes with the chicken special. She told me there isn't a chicken special then she started naming flavors of chicken and said u can have those. Then I asked her for future reference when u do have the 5/8 piece chicken special does it come with anything. This time she aggressively told me that they don't have a chicken special and started naming flavors of chicken again ...therefore I commenced to tell her well maybe they should look into that because DoorDash is advertising a chicken special on their menu for u . She said in a very stern manner that they don't do DoorDash and they don't have a menu on DoorDash as I tried to explain to her "yes they do" she insisted talking over me telling me that we don't have DoorDash and there's no chicken special. Therefore I abruptly hung up. Maybe I'm in a twilight zone or something. I could've sworn I not just seen a loco moco menu on DoorDash but have ordered from there. Bless her soul. read more
