Never had a bad experience here and love time they help the community by accepting EBT for those who can not offer more to go out and eat. The five stars is all for their staff remember Angie. So sweeet quick be proficient. Will be back read more

I ordered the 2 ribs and katsu combo. It was well worth it and it was a ton of food. The katsu is very thin but the flavor for both the ribs and katsu were great. The people working were very friendly and the lady helped explain the menu. Very small local vibe and seemed like a lot of regulars were coming in and out. What I loved most was the different sauce choices they had, I tried a bit of everything and they were all different and flavorful. Can't wait to come back. read more

Want friendly staff? Want a bunch of sauces to choose from? Want yummy and pretty large portions? Beef ribs? Bbq chicken? Bomb macaroni salad? Scoops of rice? It's all here! read more

Came here for some Kalua pork. Boy was I disappointed for $17.00 the portion was tiny compared to l&l or Hawaiian bbq. The pork was dry the Mac salad was bland. I won't be coming back anytime soon. Service was good food came out under 15mins. read more

I have to say that I was disappointed. The quantity was weak and the beef was not good at all. I liked the macaroni salad. I don't recommend. read more

This is by far the best Hawaiian bbq I've ever had. So tasty!!!! Makes your mouth water.

Food: 3/5 Compared to other Hawaiian bbq like aloha, protein portions are much smaller about 1/2 of what Aloha gives you. Price are also much expensive here for the portion. Staff: 2/5 Staff was not friendly at all. When I asked for extra sauce she just threw them into my bag seemingly upset at the request for just a few extra sealed hot sauce packets read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside and the area is a pain but the food is always good. This area of the center and especially this restaurant is ALWAYS busy. That usually twigs you all you need to know about the food. Everything is made fresh so it can take a long time to get your did. This seems to be the case for most places that do Hawaiian BBQ, but this spot is actually worth waiting that long. Everyone who works here is friendly too! My go to is the BBQ chicken and shrimp combo, but the katsu is Asiago very good and I can't say I've had anything here I don't like. read more

Love the food, the price, the staff. Overall great experience every time I come here. Will continue to come back always. Parking can be a little hectic now because of a new restaurant that just opened but I don't mind it. read more

My partner and I are regulars here as it is near our apartment and in a plaza right near our local Target. Walking into the restaurant, you hear the grills hard at work preparing chicken and short ribs alike. The smell wafts in the venue as you wait for your food to be cooked and it's such a treat. I usually get the #1 Hawaiian Chicken BBQ plate ($13.99) with extra Mac salad and my bf orders the Loco Moco ($16.49). Typically, you're in and out of here unless it's busy like around dinner time. You won't wait more than 15 minutes as they're very quick on serving the food out fast and hot. Overall, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Definitely makes for a great meal and reasonable pricing for good Hawaiian food. read more

Used to be a 4 or 5 star rating, but they have hiked up their prices tremendously. $15.99 for a chicken combo platter is nuts. Service is always great, staff is always nice, attentive, and fast. It's very late 90s decor in here and could do with some remodeling but hasn't been done yet. Summer time gets really hot, looks like they've added a mini split in the last few years but it's not cooling down the space at all. Better for takeout. read more

Found this and had to see what they had to offer based on reviews. I ordered almost everything, so when I come back I know what not to order. Items go from worst to best in my opinion. 1. Fried shrimp - meh don't bother, way too much breading. 2. Spam musubi - honestly, mediocre. Don't waste your time. 3. BBQ combo mix plate - This was delicious, bbq beef and bbq short rib was good. I substituted bbq chicken for pork and that was pretty good as well. Never been to a hawaiian bbq place that had bbq pork. Everything went well with rice and macaroni. 4. Pork lau lau and kalua pork with rice and mac - So flavorful. 5. Loco moco- This was the best item that I highly recommend. If anything ask for extra gravy and no cabbage and carrots. The hamburger patty tasted like it was homemade and well seasoned. Really wish they had more gravy so I can mix everything up with my rice....and just get my grub on read more

I had the chicken katsu bowl and spam musubi. I liked the portion size of the bowl because I ate the steamed vegetables and some of the chicken for dinner and ate the rest for lunch on the next day. The meat tasted tender and delicious. Combined with the rice and katsu and teriyaki sauces, I enjoyed my meal a lot. I don't have any comments this time about the service and ambience, but Maui Hawaiian BBQ serves solid takeout. read more

Oh yeah....we checked out all 3 Hawaiian BBQ place in the area and this place is the winner. We need our meat to be tender and flavorful. This place delivers! The musubi are stuffed and have the right amount of sauce and saltiness. Granted, the stores is dated but thats how you get great food for the price. read more

Food is amazing and even have spam musubi $1.49 on Thursdays. The woman on the counter is very friendly and and the smell of the food when you come in makes my stomach hurt for hunger lol. read more

Maui Hawaiian BBQ - Spam Musubi special on Thursday - Hawaiian Near Me - Fullerton, California

Incredibly delicious and tender meats, friendly and fast service. Small shop in the corner, so I usually order to go and enjoy at home.

I don't usually put down reviews. Never have I been to a Hawaiian bbq mix and me not like it. RARE. But I got the bbq mix. Everything was good until on of the meats smelled and tasted like hotdog. Like a smell coming from the hotdogs you buy at the store. Man I was So disgusted. Idk what it was but I never smelled meat like that before. I don't think I will Be going to This bbq mix anymore. read more

If you're dinning for your lunch, make sure you call at least 20 minutes before your lunch. The staff moves as quickly as they can. But, because they're in high demand it takes a while for the cooks to prepare your food. Which is pleasing because your food is made to order. Can't complain there, I appreciate that. The staff is chill, friendly and helpful. I just started a new job over here. So I came here for lunch today. Parking is accessible and plentiful. So, what your eyeballs have been speeding for! The food is really good. The portions are more than enough. They actually have some new combos they offer. Which I like because I don't want to always eat Chicken. I order the Short Ribs and Fried Shrimp. I will tell you, the Shrimp is a little bready but you can peel off excess breading. It isn't a big deal. The Shrimps are still a decent size and the marania sauce is fire! The short Ribs, Rice and Macaroni salad is bomb! Listen, I don't get paid to write these reviews. But the food is good, the restaurant is clean and the staff is nice. You're welcome, enjoy! :) Oh... The Spam Musubi are a $1 on Thursdays limited 15 per person!. *Drops Mic read more

So if you get a mini meal for a kid it's literally a $2 discount and you get half the food. I would have just paid the $2 read more

Maui Hawaiian BBQ - Regular size and half of that is the mini(kids meal) but only a $2 discount smh - Hawaiian Near Me - Fullerton, California

I stopped by today 05/09/23. You can always be sure to get good, hot, consistently fresh Hawaiian food here. The customer service here is always great. I stop by at least twice a month for take out. I have noticed the prices have gone up on alot of my favorite dishes but it's so good I keep coming back. They do offer indoor and outdoor seating. The only thing I would probably suggest the place needs a small face lift / upgrades on decor / AC units. But other then that it's an all around great place to stop by for food. They also do accept phone orders which is great because they are constantly busy. read more

Maui Hawaiian BBQ - Right side view of register. - Hawaiian Near Me - Fullerton, California

I had catering for my Sons Birthday party and the price is right and the food was great. My guest enjoyed the short ribs and the BBQ chicken. I got two Medium and both had 25 pieces of course the ribs are a bit more on the price. The tray came with meat on top of vegetables. My guest was satisfied and I have happy my husband didn't have to grill. read more

I'm biased since I'm from Hawaii but take that out and I still think it was mediocre. I ordered the chicken combo ~$10 which is chicken katsu and bbq chicken. The cutlet was so thin and not much chicken. The katsu sauce was way too sweet. I was also expecting the bbq chicken to have a basic teriyaki flavor but there was no flavor at all. It just tasted cooked. The only good thing was the Mac salad. read more

The food is delicious, it can get busy at times and you will wait for a while but not too crazy the portions are good I always get the mini meal which is perfect for me! I've had other Gawain bbq spots but this one is my favorite read more

Food is sooooo good!! I keep coming back every time I'm in the area which is monthly. Yum yum!!

This is our go to Hawaiian take out spot! Definitely a hole in the wall, and not modernized like its many competitors. However, I am Hawaiian and this is exactly how Hawaiian food should be! Even looks like how many hole in the walls look like on the islands. The food is phenomenal, the staff is friendly, and the portions are generous. 2 plates feed myself, my husband, and my grandpa. If you are dining alone, the mini meals are perfect portions, which I have ordered on a few occasions. My husband's favorite is the traditional BBQ chicken plate. I am a fan of the mahi mahi! Best tarter sauce EVER. It's worth 50 cents to get extra. The fish is always crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. The cabbage is always cooked to perfection. The macaroni is the best I've had! I order 2 scoops macaroni, one scoop rice. We will forever be fans of this amazing Hawaiian island BBQ. read more

Food is fresh and tasty. Clean restaurant. Friendly staff. Huge portions. I got the chicken combo and spam rolls. So good.

I bought food for my cousin and self, we asked for a Styrofoam plate replacement because the one I had was punctured from bottom and my Teriyaki sauce was leaking. The Lady Carmen (she said that was her name) didn't want to give us another, she said we had to pay for the new styrofoam plate. I didn't mind paying but as a customer that just paid (with card) close to $40. It was a little upsetting because we were eating at restaurant (not as if I left and came back) and wanted to not have it leak all over my car. I ended up calling a number that was online. The other lady ( at Brea location) said her name was Naomi was very nice and I spoke to her in regard of what happened, she took my number down and said she would give my number to a Supervisor and give me a call back. It really sucks that I ended up taking my food in a leaking "container" meanwhile. read more

Maui Hawaiian BBQ - Menu - Hawaiian Near Me - Fullerton, California

Ok food and fast service. My lack of one starts is due to the food's variance from one day to another. Some days the food is great and some others is almost not edible. The rice and macaroni always seem to be good but the chicken it's either too old or too long in the frier. read more

Kalbi Short Ribs, BBQ Beef, and Mac salad, all not good. Both the ribs and BBQ beef tasted really weird. Not sure if the meat was bad or just their sauce. I couldn't finish neither. The Mac salad tasted like straight up mayonnaise, nothing else. I added some salt and hot sauce to it but that didn't help. The only decent thing they had was the rice and the BBQ chicken. The location itself also wasn't very clean. read more

10/10 service! Ordered family meals and spam musubi over the phone on July 4th and the person taking my order was so helpful and courteous! Payed over the phone and picked up and the same person gave amazing service. Kudos to her!! 10/10 food! Ordered for my daughter and her teenage friends and they ate it up! Portions were HUGE. I really enjoyed the mild volcano sauce and all the sauces. Also loved the free pickled jalapeños too! Overall - would definitely order here again for a large group! read more

No Aloha fo dem. One The wait was ridiculous long time ova a half-hour. I was hoping it was worth the wait. Nope. Food was tasteless. Definitely needed the "sauce" (order extra). How you can screw up rice? Spam musubi sad. We ordered the Hawaiian Bbq with beef, kalbi ribs and chicken. (Chicken was ok) comes with 2 scoops aloha(rice) and mac salad. And two musubi. Neva again cuz. Price was ok but you get what you pay for. Atmosphere soso. At least they played some Hawaiian elevator music. read more

Came here since we were going to Costco / sprouts and wanted something quick to eat. We came in at 7 and beat the dinner rush. We ordered the chicken combo which has chicken katsu and two chicken steaks. It also came with two scoops of rice, bed of veggies and macaroni salad. This was a pretty good deal at $10, and more than enough food to split between me and my friend. The food took about 15 min to come out. They have alot of sauces to choose from, my favorite was the spicy volcano sauce . The restaurant is a little grimey inside but that's ok since the food is good. read more

Good and affordable. Ordered a medium tray of short ribs and I wasn't disappointed. In a easy location to find. I can't really say that it was amazing but it was still pretty good. Hope to try other options on the menu next time. read more

I gave their Brea location 4 stars, as we had ordered from their catered menu for a big party last year and their food was awesome. I typically go to this location (Fullerton), as it's closer to my work, however the last few times I've been there, the food has just been average. The attached photo shows the BBQ combo plate, which comes with BBQ chicken, kalbi and BBQ beef, with rice and mac salad. The portions are big, but their meat is just okay. The last time I was here, I ordered the hamburger steak, which is a hamburger patty with gravy on top of rice. The cashier/hostess told me it will take 10 min to cook, and she was right. When it arrived, the meal itself looked terrible. It looked like there were small chunks of bread in the gravy. I couldn't quite make it out. When I bit into the hamburger patty, it was way over-cooked and I had to get a knife in order to cut it. I've had their loco moco before, which I thought would be the same thing without the egg, but this meal seemed to have a different patty and different gravy. This location is somewhat small, with maybe 8-10 tables inside and outside. It's located in a strip mall near Target, so there is plenty of parking. This used to be my go-to Hawaiian local food place for lunch, but it may be time to search for an alternative. read more
