    BBQ and Katsu Special
    Fernando D.

    This is my favorite Hawaiian spot in all of arizona! I wasn't really a fan of Hawaiin food prior because I think I tried some mid food back in my area, but this place is so amazing. There is a kiosk where you can order. I always get their bbq and katsu special for $14.99. I am able to get two meals out of it because they always stack their plates. The bbq and katsu special includes bbq chicken, katsu, and beef. All three of them are so good, but my absolute favorite is the katsu. They make it so crispy and delicious paired with their katsu sauce. Our food is always ready within 10 minutes. There are a lot of tables inside, but I like to eat outside in their patio area. Very easy parking. Definitely recommend!

    You knowwww what it isss. I was craving Hawaiian bbq again and got the usual bbq mix. Today, we decided to try their sweet potato balls. Biggest mistake ever because now we are going to get it EVERYTIME we are there hahah. It came out freshh, hot, and crispy. It was not overly sweet at all. Ten sweet potato balls for $8 or you could get 5 balls for $5. Service again super quick and efficient. It was also a nice day today so we ate at their tables outside.

    Great serving sizes, and I love that you can customize how much mac salad and rice you get for your plate depending on your preference. The staff here were helpful and very nice, and got my order out quickly. They have a kiosk to order as well as a register, so it's quick and easy. Some tables in the restaurant, but the atmosphere is not anything special.

    Maui Wowi! This place is amazing. The food is cooked to order and with great, fast service and huge portions. I ordered the traditional Hawaiian BBQ chicken, and am taking at least half of it home with me. I think I got 3 or 4 chicken breasts. Will definitely be back to this fast-casual spot.

    Great and reliable Hawaiian food. I'm not sure how authentic it is, but it is definitely delicious. The best thing is the portion sizes. You get a lot of food for around $15-$20 after tax and it is so good. I love their plate options and recommend it.

    BBQ and Katsu Special $13.99

    For $13.99 - I feel full and happy with my food decision today! Ended up here after seeing the never ending long lines at Aloha Fest over at Tempe Beach. Super short wait. It's a cute area. I have no complaints for this meaty $14 meal.

    Never been here before but I'm so glad I found it. Can I just say how much food they give you is awesome!! When I picked up the to go container to open it I did a double take on the weight. That thing was heavy. So much food. I ordered what I usually like to order from Hawaii bbq places- 1/2 bbq chk and 1/2 katsu with rice & Mac salad. Everything was delicious. Even the cabbage they put under the meat was tasty and so fresh. I loved it! Only ate like half of my food so I'll be enjoying some leftovers.

    One of my go-to places for a good Hawaiian plate lunch when I'm in town. Usually grab a plate before heading home to T-town. They've got big portions, and plate is enough to feed two people or one hungry kanak! lol. This last time I got the Hawaiian bbq mix. Sooo good! The kalbi is always my favorite! Mac salad is good too! Only thing is that I wish they'd give more rice cause there's a lot of meat in this plate! lol. In addition to the amazing food, service is also great! Food is made to order, and still comes out quickly. If you don't want to wait, you could also order online ahead of time People here are friendly and always very helpful.

    I've been looking for the best Hawaiian food in the Phoenix metro for a while and this is it. Hands down. Best quality, best price, and best portion size. How can you have all 3?? I don't know, but they did it. Now I'm just sad that it's 40 minutes from my house! I also loved the Hawaiian drinks! I got a second one for the road because I haven't seen them anywhere else.

    Chicken Combo Special
    Kiarra V.

    This place is SO good!! My boyfriend and I discovered it about 6 months ago. It is the best Hawaiian food I have found. I am very picky about my mac salad and do not like it many places, but I get it here every time. I usually get the chicken combo plate, it comes with katsu chicken and barbecue chicken. I could talk about Maui Hawaiian Grill forever!!

    Hawaiian BBQ Mix Special  SO MUCH FOOD!!!!

    Do they use msg? Is soy in most the sauce?

    I'm sorry I couldn't tell you. Your best bet is to call the restaurant directly.

Take you friends here and definitely give their hard cider a go! -------------- Food Items: - smoked brisket: it was flavorful and just absurdly amazing. Additionally, the spice blend is amazing. The meat is just super tender and hardly tastes dry at all. A must have. - sausage: I cannot speak for this because of my dairy allergen and they weren't quite sure but definitely seems great - pork smoked ends: These were absolutely my favorite. From the sauce to the tenderness and the distinct umami from the wood smoke mixing into the pork and the fat from the cut being so tender it just melts on your tongue. Overall you have to go here and this is one of my favorite restaurants, and TAKE your friends here! The ambiance is great and the music isn't too loud where you cannot hear each other!

    Always a stop when we are in Arizona. What a charming little country store! From the moment you…read morewalk in, it feels like stepping into a cozy small-town gem. The atmosphere is quaint, welcoming, and full of character. Now let's talk about the food--the smoked turkey is hands-down some of the best I've ever had. Tender, juicy, and packed with smoky flavor. And the brisket? Absolutely incredible. It was so tender it practically fell apart with every bite. You can tell everything is made with care and quality ingredients. Whether you're stopping in for lunch or just browsing the store, this place is a must-visit. Great food, friendly service, and all the small-country-store charm you could ask for. I'll definitely be back for more of that brisket!

As always, we love the BBQ here...we typically get the moist brisket, the smoked potatoes, the three bean salad...today I also added a couple of corns and their cole slaw. The food is always so good and we find very consistent. Here's where the customer service outshined previous visits...when I got there and started to order our to-go dinner, I was told the potatoes were gone and they were making more but it would be about 20-30 minutes before they were ready. I was told that someone previously had come in an purchased 30 potatoes, which I will always say...if you are going to order something that large from a restaurant, please be considerate and pre-order so they are prepared. You walking in and ordering that big of an order put the people behind you without some of their choices. No worries today...it's Mom's Day and I wasn't going to sway from getting BBQ for our dinner. I had some other things to do so left the store to take care of other business. Once back home (we live fairly close to the store), I called to ask if the potatoes were ready and after being placed on a brief hold, was told they had some ready but they were flying out the door! The young lady asked me if I wanted to place an order over the phone and decided to do that just so I could be sure we had their most wonderful smoked potatoes. I drove down to pick up our order and was met with some of the best staff, who laughed with me about the situation. They agreed about people calling beforehand when wanting that much food, apparently they also got about 30 lbs of meat as well. It's all good and we will be back when we need our Rudy's fix!

Comfortable, sorta on the dark side. Classy. As I was not driving today, I decided to try their smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent -- and the dark cherries they use are the perfect addition to the cocktail. (The glass is coated with smoke from a smoldering piece of pecan wood, and the cocktail was served with a cloud of smoke under a coaster covering the glass.) The pig sickles ( ribs) were the perfect chance to make a pig of myself. Had the two meat plate, pig sickles and barbecued pulled chicken, If you like corn, you must have the side of corn with your dinner. The barbecue beans were delicious. Our server did a magnificent job tending to our drinks, appetizer, and food orders -- despite being very busy (the place was packed! -- and seemed like she was in constant motion. Very nice individual who liked la Prices? It was expensive, but the best barbecue always is. Eating isn't cheap. It was well worth every dollar spent. All in all, it was a perfect dinner. The perfect parting gift: a small paper bag containing four small donuts, coated with cinnamon. Our bag didn't make it home... I think we've found the perfect place to bring our family and out-of-town guests for dinner.
