    Luv Hawaiian BBQ, cafe
    Nora O.

    Very nice local Hawaiian cuisine, very similar to what we had in Kauai, Poipu and Oahu Beachside.

    If I'm in Huntsville, I'm coming here. I love them!! It's hard to find Hawaiian food anywhere near me. The food is always fresh and the service is always nice.

    The long piece is beef short ribs. Lower left is Hawaiian bbq chicken. Lower right is Hawaiian bbq beef. All marinated, all good natural tasting without needing added sauce--especially not overly sweet southern bbq sauce. Worthy unique flavors and casual place. Only thing is the short ribs take a fair bit of chewing~~if you've older teeth it's extra effort. Flavor still good!

    The food here is amazing! Legit Hawaiian food in Huntsville! Service was great, we had our food minutes after ordering. It was obviously cooked fresh. We ordered the "mini-meals," but the servings were still big enough for us to take home leftovers! Will definitely be coming back again.

    The food delicious and the atmosphere was Hawaiian themed! We ordered the BBQ mix plus the Katy chicken and shrimp. Both plates were great. This place is worth the visit.

    It was ok. The interior is island themed and they play Hawaiian music. The portions are good sized and the girl working the register was nice. The crab Rangoons were solid. The best part of the meal was the macaroni salad. It was perfectly seasoned and creamy. It was the highlight and I wished I had gotten a second scoop. One thing that is a major problem is the amount of styrofoam that they use even if you are dining in Every bit of dinner was served that way. It's such a bummer when there are better options. It's enough to convince me to never go back.

    We ordered Luv Hawaiian BBQ for delivery through DoorDash yesterday. I've been wanting to try it since they opened a couple of months ago, and I'm happy to say I enjoyed their food! I can't speak to service or atmosphere, but I can only conclude they made our order promptly, as it was delivered to us within the delivery time we were given. Our order was correct. I wish they'd included some of the sauces and stuff that I've heard they have on a bar inside the restaurant, but in their defense I had no way of asking for it through DD, so I can't really fault them there. I'll just have to go try it in person next time. We ordered the chicken combo (BBQ chicken + chicken katsu) and I believe the Hawaiian bbq mix (whatever it was called, it came with bbq chicken, bbq beef, and bbq short ribs). Each plate came with two scoops of rice and one scoop of macaroni salad. Everything was good, but I was surprised to find I liked the bbq chicken best of all! Flavorful, super juicy chicken thigh meat with a nice little bit of crust. The katsu was a little chewy but the breading was flavorful and stayed crispy. Rice was maybe a little mushy but it was very plentiful! The Mac salad was super creamy and paired perfectly with the meal. The vegetable garnish was just shredded cabbage but by that point I was pretty full anyway! Hubby's meal was also good. The short ribs were VERY tasty, though a little small. The beef was a touch dry but quite yummy flavor-wise. I would order from them again and I look forward to visiting in person!

It was extremely tender and melts in your mouth! You don't need a knife because it falls apart on its own and it was seasoned to perfection. The smoked wings were delicious as well and paired perfectly with the white sauce. The mac wasn't the greatest but I enjoyed the potato salad. The Texas toast was a great addition and was perfect for creating a little bbq sandwich. My total came out to around $32 which I felt was a bit pricey when I had paid but after getting my plate I realized how large the portions were which totally justified the cost. At most BBQ restaurants I usually finish all my food but here I had left overs so I basically got 2 meals out of the one plate. Another thing I liked is that they have a variety of sauces and they aren't stingy with them. Overall this is a great spot with friendly staff that provides wonderful service. The food is delicious and the restaurant is clean and well decorated. I will definitely be back! I was told that Boarhog's is the best BBQ in Huntsville and I can now confirm that as true!

    This! Place! Needs! More! Hype!…read more Okay, back to typing normally. Kar's Char is a relatively new Texas-style bbq place inside of Lowe Mill. It occupies the full restaurant space that used to belong to The Veggie and belonged to Happy Tummy before that. It's to the left of Piper and Leaf as you face P&L from the parking lot. I only belabor this point because some folks do have a hard time navigating Lowe Mill and no one should miss out on giving this place a try because they can't find it. I saw a few posts about Kar's Char when they first opened and have had them bookmarked since then. Recently, I was in the area after work around 2 PM and looking to kill some time before a doctor's appointment. I was feeling hungry and figured why not give them a go and enjoy a little time at the Mill while I waited. I arrived and took a few minutes to look at the menu. I am, admittedly, freakishly obnoxious and snobby about barbeque and was determined to have a positive experience, so I decided not to play with fire that day and instead decided to order one of their burgers, which I'd seen a few people rave about online. I selected their hatch green chili cheeseburger and placed an order for that. It comes with one side and I decided on macaroni and cheese. They have bottled drinks available next to the register and so I grabbed a water out of the cooler to round things out. My burger was cooked fresh just for me so I had a few minutes to hang around and take in the fun, nerdy, classic Lowe Mill ambiance. This is a truly local business and they seem very dedicated to supporting and uplifting their fellow businesses in and around the Mill. The service I received was incredibly kind and welcoming -- they really do seem like lovely folks here. My burger came out piping hot and cooked perfectly, with slightly crispy, charred edges and a juicy center. It was a delicious burger, slightly spicy but nothing scary, and I especially loved the chili lime aioli -- added a nice creaminess and moisture. To my pleasant surprise, the soft, lightly toasted bun held up to all the goodness pretty well! Next time I will probably ask for no pickles -- I found their flavor a little overwhelming -- but I am also hot and cold on my feelings about pickles so your mileage may vary! I say keep them on if you're a big fan, and take them off if not. :) The macaroni and cheese was enjoyable but not as good as the burger. Next time I come I will probably try out a different side. Overall, 4.5/5, with extra high marks for the hatch green chili burger and the charming, welcoming staff/owners. I'll be back to try the actual barbeque, and certainly to have another burger!

    Those who know BBQ often say, "For best BBQ in Alabama, go to Big Bob's." It's not just the best,…read morebut also the inventor's of Alabama Style BBQ, which is particularly notable for the white sauce that's served here and was invented by Big Bob. Big Bob founded the spot back in 1925 and only recently passed away, giving the business to his children. The place is an institution of the state and is packed on weekends. Prices are from an era that's now long gone, making this not only incredible BBQ, but also a steal for the money. I mean, who sells a BBQ pork sandwich for under $5 in 2026? Many staff working here clearly have been around for a long, long time. So, one might ask, what should I get at Big Bob's? For starters, the chicken wings. Likely the best smoked wings to be had anywhere: just the right amount of smokey profile while being tender and juicy. True perfection in something that's hard to master. Next, one of the samplers is not a bad idea. Pulled pork is truly state of the art, winning many competitions around the South. Ribs are fall off the bone and delicious. Brisket is good, but a low fat version that might or might not be to someone's taste. Hand cut French fries and baked beans as a side, and finally, life is all set. Sure, if one gets more adventure, the ice box cakes are wonderful also, with the coconut varietal being a standout. Stop by, enjoy and leave with bragging rights for having tried something truly one of a kind.

I have been eating Big Bob's BBQ my whole life. The quality and taste of the pork shoulder, smoked chicken, and Brunswick stew I recently purchased was very very disappointing. We ordered 2 pounds of pork shoulder. The meat had no taste. I couldn't detect hickory smoke. The pork was burnt and very fatty. The accompanying vinegar based sauce was not seasoned like previous times. Basically it was vinegar with little seasoning. 1/5 The smoked chicken, my favorite, was dry. I wondered if it was leftover from the previous day. The seasoning wasn't very good. 2/5 The Brunswick stew was not good. The recipe has changed. It tasted sweet which was off putting. I do not remember Brunswick stew tasting sweet. The quart of stew had 10 tiny pieces of potato and a few corn kernels. I saw some pork meat floating in a strange red colored broth. I remember when stewed tomatoes were in the stew. Not anymore. The soupy stew did not taste very good. 2/5 The potato with pulled pork was ok. The sauce given was a thin vinegar base that had little seasoning. The potato was the best thing I ate from Big Bob's. 3/5 I am thoroughly disappointed with the quality and taste of Big Bob's pulled pork, smoked chicken and Brunswick stew. I will return again. It will be a while though. I can't get this visit out of my head. This feels like a bad Twilight Zone episode. I really have enjoyed the foods from here in the past. Sadly, not this time. 2/5
