    Beef Yaki Noodle
    Gloria G.

    The place is located off foothill and Cerritos in Azusa across from Azusa Pacific. It is small inside but does have at least 4 tables. I saw the reviews on Yelp but I wanted to try it myself and my family, I ordered the family meal - 3 meats : beef short ribs, teriyaki beef and sweet and sour chicken; 1 app : chicken wings ; 2 sides : rice and macaroni salad. I wasn't sure how many it would feed so I ordered chicken fried rice, beef yakitori and a chicken teriyaki/ katsu plate. Everything was so good and freshly made. My family - grandkids are fussy but they really enjoyed everything. You know hard it is to feed kids especially vegetables but these dishes were a hit with them all! Excellent for a family of 5 adults and 3 children- we still have enough for tmws lunch!

    I had a good experience at Louis's Hawaiian BBQ (Azusa). I ordered the Chicken Katsu with Curry Sauce ($12.99). It's HUGE portions, well-prepared, and satisfying! I left full & happy. I arrived at Louis's Hawaiian BBQ (Azusa) on Tuesday (around 10:54AM). Parking is bad. The private lot is busy and cramped. Luckily, I found an open spot. Customers can order at the self-service kiosk or counter. Staff is professional and hardworking. Staff also happily answered my questions. According to Staff, the Lunch Special offers less food than the ordinary menu. My meal took 11 minutes and 44 seconds. Good pace. I appreciated the Chicken Katsu with Curry Sauce ($12.99). The Chicken Katsu is very crisp and crunchy while not being too dry. The rice and macaroni salad are clean and tasty. And the portions are very BIG! This affordable meal can easily feed two people. There's also genuine effort in this food. If I had to nitpick, the curry sauce is a little too salty, but it's comforting. Regarding ambiance, Louis's Hawaiian BBQ (Azusa) is clean and cramped. There's four shiny tables and one counter. There's also no restroom; rather, there's a bottle of hand sanitizer near the kiosk. I appreciated the clean windows and well-swept floors. There's still visible passion in this small business. Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Louis's Hawaiian BBQ (Azusa). It's refreshing discovering a Hawaiian BBQ location with integrity. If you're searching for affordable, large portions, this is an easy recommendation. 4.6 out of 5

    Teriyaki Chicken plate with white rice and Macaroni Salad
    Emily R.

    I wanted to try a new food spot and decided to take a chance on them. I ordered a teriyaki chicken plate with white rice and macaroni salad as sides. Everything was delicious, I will definitely come back here again recommended it to others. 10/10 (forgot to take a picture because I TORE that plate up) Update : bought some again was craving it so bad, here's a picture of the chicken teriyaki plate with macaroni and white rice!

    Supposedly the bbq chicken plate. (Tasted a little like curry and not like any other hawaiian bbq I have ever had)
    Becca L.

    NOT HAWAIIAN FOOD! Ishould have checked the latest reviews. Disappointed on both the bbq chicken and katsu chicken plate. Fired rice was old and crunchy, Mac salad didn't resemble or taste like hawaiian. The kicker is that the bbq chicken was stir fried in pieces and there was no katsu sauce for the katsu chicken. Definitely not coming back.

    Chicken & Beef Bowl
    Alma A.

    Flavors were so good in comparison to other Hawaiian bbq spots, but there were certain things that dropped the ratings for me. I started eating my chicken and beef bowl and realized how much the bowl is full of rice. There's not a lot of meat and for the price it is, wasn't exactly worth it. The aloha plate caused a family member to have diarrhea, which I saw in a previous review as well. One and done for us here.

    Kiosk ordering.
    Kevin M.

    Louis's Hawaiian BBQ is a nice little mom and pop joint. I found them searching on Yelp while I was checking out areas to each during lunch time. The location is neighboring to the well known Louie's Liquor in Azusa. Louis's Hawaiian operates with kiosk ordering right when you enter. The staff is kind, but there is a bit of a language barrier. Nonetheless, I felt welcomed the entire visit. After I ordered, the food was delivered quickly. They had mini bowl options for around $10-11. My order was the chicken katsu curry mini bowl which came with rice and mac salad. My first thought were WOW. The mini bowl seemed like a regular size in comparison to the portions served. The bowl came with a side container of curry which paired well. When you pay $10, but the food looks like you can easily have paid more, then its a great place in my book. I highly recommended Louis's in Azusa if you want a Hawaiian food for an affordable price point. They are a solid 4/5 for me and I hope more customers by to eat.

    If you're looking for really good and decently priced Hawaiian food in the Azusa area, this place is it!! It's conveniently located right across from Azusa Pacific University. The place is clean w plenty of seating. My 3rd time here tonight and i see now that this place does not get the traffic it deserves. The cashier does not speak English well, so it takes a long minute to place my order. However, she is always super nice and friendly. I've had the chicken & beef combo and chicken katsu, and tonight I tried the short ribs plate which was deliciously marinated. I love the little tiny cup of peanuts they give as a side. The prices here are much lower compared to other Hawaiian bbq spots I've been to. Let's support local businesses and show this restaurant some love!!! Food is delicious, portions are big, so I'm definitely coming back here when I'm craving Hawaiian food, and you should too, if you're ever in this area!!

    Mix bbq
    Kelly W.

    Ordered for take out and it def exceed our expectations! We got the mixed bbq plate, mini curry chicken plate and chicken musubi. The mixed bbq plate comes with beef, chicken, and kabli. Each plate comes with rice , Mac salad and veggies. The meats were all very tender and had a good bbq flavor. The Mac salad had bits of tuna mixed in and was flavorful. They packed all the sauces on the side which was great for me since I am not a sauce person. Overall we would def order again from this place because everything we had was great!

    Receipt for Dine In
    Chris B.

    Was driving by and decided to try. First off they have a kiosk for ordering. The kiosk was simple to use and made payment easy. I made my order for dine in and of course my order was prepared for take out. Not a big deal. I ordered a couple of appetizers for my first time. Spam Musubi and fried chicken wings. The Order came with a few sauces, hot sauce, sweet and sour and a homemade sauce which was also sweet. The fried wings were hot out of the fryer and a great crisp and a good balance of saltiness and crunch. The Musubi was also very good and tasted fresh. The food took a little longer than expected since I was the only one eating at the time but it wasn't too bad of a wait. I will definitely go back and try a plate lunch. Prices are reasonable, and although the food I ordered didn't blow me away it was fresh, made to order and was very good. Give them a try!

    Came here after the renaissance fair in Irwindale, hungry and ready to chow down. We were able to place our order through a kiosk and received two free canned drinks due to meeting a certain amount paid. That was nice! Sat down and waited for our food which did not take too long, maybe 15 mins. Everything was hot and portions were plenty. The kalua pork doesn't taste like the ones we're used to but it was still good. It was more of a Chinese version which reminded me of my mom's cooking. The lady there was super sweet and never rushed us. Most people who came in after us, placed togo orders, but we dined in because it was hot outside and they had the A/C running. The place was clean overall and had casual interior. Great spot to stop by if you're in the area. All our food cost about $53.

Wouldn't consider myself the biggest fan of BBQ and this certainly more of a craving that's once in a blue moon. For parking, it's located in a plaza with ample parking. Went close to noon on a weekend and needed a brief wait before ordering. There is ample seating inside and some had great natural lighting as well. Water, utensils, and to-go boxes are self-serve. American Express is accepted here. I was a bit peckish when visiting, so got a tray full of items such as Prime Brisket, spicy Mac & cheese, potato salad, coleslaw, cornbread, and the pickles (free). The spicy Mac & cheese had a good kick but was not too spicy. Coleslaw and potato salad were pretty solid options. The brisket and the cornbread were my personal favorites. Brisket was a savory profile that I expected and the cornbread had a good sweetness that added to the meal. However, you cannot go wrong with ordering any of these items. The brisket was ordered as 1 lb, while all the sides were single serving side. The portion size was well beyond two people and had a bit of leftovers. It could have been better to get 1/4 lb less brisket or one less side item. This was certainly a nice random discovery and I'd definitely come back again. Thumbs up from a casual BBQ fan!

The pick-up process was very smooth and they gave extra peppers, cheese, etc. Even before I got to try the pizza, I knew it was going to be AMAZING based on the smells that took over my car.

My personal favorite was the chili paneer since it had a slight spice kick. For the waffle fries, I highly recommend to enjoy that early on, as it gets soggy over time. My friends also had great remarks about the flavors. Looking forward to giving this place another try in the future!

Unfortunately, it turned out to be the worst restaurant experience we've ever had. While we were waiting for the rest of our party to arrive, our waitress offered to bring us cornbread. She never mentioned there was a charge, didn't ask how many we wanted, and simply brought out two orders. Since she offered it and never explained it was an extra charge, we naturally assumed it was complimentary for the birthday celebration. Things only went downhill from there. The rest of our group was given a hard time at the front because they didn't know the exact name the reservation was under. We were also given grief for placing birthday presents on a chair at the end of the table, a chair the staff had placed there. We were told the chair was interfering with the wait staff, even though it wasn't blocking any walkways. It seemed like every interaction came with unnecessary attitude. Once we were all seated, our waitress seemed to have a chip on her shoulder from the start. She never brought out our ranch-style bread, rarely refilled our drinks, and repeatedly reached across the table, passing plates directly in front of people's faces instead of simply walking around to serve them properly. When our dinners arrived, our empty salad and appetizer plates were still sitting on the table. We had to ask her to clear them just so we had room for our meals. If we needed anything, we had to catch her as she hurried past our table because she never stopped to check on us. She would keep walking while we tried to ask for what we needed, so we had to quickly rattle everything off before she disappeared. To top it off, she was openly talking about our table to the guests seated behind us. It was completely unprofessional and made us feel uncomfortable. The level of service was disappointing from beginning to end. When my bill came, the total didn't add up correctly. I politely pointed out the discrepancy, but instead of checking it, she came back with the menu to prove I was wrong. Ironically, the menu proved she was the one who made the mistake. She even tried telling me I was comparing the menu price to a receipt total that included tax. I had to explain that the tax was calculated separately at the bottom of the receipt. Rather than apologize, she walked away and sent the manager over. Thankfully, the manager immediately recognized the error and corrected my bill. By that point, my family had enough and just wanted to pay and leave. To make matters worse, they were told they couldn't pay until everyone at the table had received their bill. The food didn't make up for the service, either. It was hot and humid inside the restaurant, the burger was as tough as a hockey puck, they were out of beef ribs so we settled for pork ribs that were mostly fat, and the steak lacked any flavor. To top it off, the restrooms had a strong urine smell, which only added to the overall poor experience. The only highlights of the evening were the company we were with and the Costco birthday cake we brought ourselves. I had read the recent reviews before coming and hoped people were exaggerating. They weren't!!! I wanted to give this place another chance because of the great memories we had at the one in Colton, but sadly, those memories are all that's left. If you're thinking about making the drive because of nostalgia like we did, I'd recommend reading the recent reviews first. I wish we had listened. We won't be returning. Thanks for a horrible birthday experience, Sundance & staff!
