A home cooked meal is really what youre paying for here. The family that runs this shop are so kind and polite. The food is delicious and made with love. I adore this "hole in the wall" hidden gem. You cant go wrong stopping here. read more

I tried Maui Rose about two years ago at a gathering. It was a catering order and it was good enough that we asked where they ordered from. However, I went in today to place an order for a small gathering and the entire interaction was so odd. When we arrived, there was a man and a woman packing orders and they said it was to-go only. They blocked off the entrance and asked what we wanted, but we took one look around the inside and left. There was clutter everywhere and it just felt off. We looked up the health score feature on Yelp and saw they were recently closed due to some health code violations. We realized this place has frequent instances where they are closed because of this. I absolutely do not recommend. read more

Maui Rose - Japanese Near Me - Anaheim, California

The place was closed when I stopped by for the first time. I saw a loose dog inside barking at every person that walked by. I don't think having a loose pet in a restaurant is hygienic when the place is closed. You don't know what the pet get into or if it's potty trained. Left me not wanting to ever try this place. read more

Sorry, this place only gets 1 star from me, but I gave it 2 stars because the woman working alone was nice! This place is super messy,if you want to say it correctly, it's 'dirty'. I've never seen anything like it. It was small and poorly maintained. I'll never be back! Thanks. read more

5 stars for the great customer service. I wouldn't say this is a restaurant as much as it is a large kitchen and you can order your food to go. The words Maui Rose is almost misleading. You'd expect a Hawaiian restaurant, but it is mainly Korean and Japanese food. They have spam musubi on their menu, but a lot of the rest is Galbi, tempura, katsu, and various types of sushi. The dining tables were all pushed together to use as a counter to make homemade kimchi by the owner. I didn't get the name of the owners but they are husband and wife. I was really impressed with the lady and when her husband came in after she gave us our food, he spoke with us. He said when he first came to the US from Korea, he landed in Hawaii and made that his home, briefly, then joined the US Army. I was super impressed. As we waited and looked around, it seemed that they mainly do catering services, hence why she had so many bulk packages of kimchi and containers. The lady also gave us a huge portion of her kimchi to go, for free. We thanked her for her kindness and thanked her husband for serving our country. We got unagi (eel) and Galbi. They don't have fountain drinks but they do serve cold soda in cans. read more

The food was great! So yummy and so fresh! Different types of meat, tempuras, salads, are so good The owner was super nice ! Must go for yummy bbqs! read more

Maui Rose - Pork katsu - Japanese Near Me - Anaheim, California

The Food is deceit, the service was as expected, and the environment look like a traditional Mom & Pop's Korean restaurant.

As a self proclaimed katsu fanatic, I can say with confidence that this place is bomb.com. The tonkatsu was lightly breaded and fried perfectly...tender yet crispy. The highlight (for me) the katsu sauce. Tasted homemade and even had ground toasted sesame seeds on top. I don't know what Covid has done to other restaurants, but I get jipped of sauce every time I order a katsu. Not only did this place drizzle their delicious sauce on the katsu, they even gave me an extra container without me asking. Also the udon, sushi rolls, bulgogi, techi bulgogi, kalbi, etc. looked dank and their prices are reasonable, portions large. It's a mom & pop and just do worth a try. read more

Maui Rose - Shrimp crunch roll - Japanese Near Me - Anaheim, California

* I love their sesame chicken and the cabbage almond salad * I like supporting local businesses and this is one you should give a try. The restaurant is small with about 7 tables, but most people order to go. They have bentos, salads, teriyaki bowls, noodles and also have party platters. They deliver but you have to order at least $25 or $35 ... I need to double check that. Overall, the owners are nice, the food is always consistent and the prices are fair. read more

Maui Rose - Bento with spicy pork and sesame chicken - Japanese Near Me - Anaheim, California

Well I tried to walk-in and eat here around 330pm on a Thursday afternoon. When I walked in there were buckets of raw chicken and other poultry sitting on tables while they were mixing sauces . I'm not sure that prepping all the food were customers eat is alway a good sign . I wanted to try it but that initial reaction kill it . I gave 2 stars only because it was supposed to be good food I can't rate the food but good luck to everyone else read more

If you come here, proceed with caution. CHECK YOUR RECEIPT before paying. They tried to over charge me on several items that were labeled completely incorrect, and when I brought it to their attention they told me "prices have changed". They tried to charge me for several salmon dinners when I ordered 2 rolls and chicken friend rice. Also after bringing it to their attention they wrote a hand made receipt out for me with no itemization, just amounts that contradicted their menu IN RESTAURANT. Sketchy!!! Walked out without paying and without food, absolutely not. read more

This place is Fire. Reminds me when i spent time at the actual Maui in Hawaii to where the food taste good. I got the Teryaki Chicken plate with rice . Great Menu choices here tho. I also got the Beef and Chicken plate with rice and vegetables. Food taste real fresh as if you are really in Maui. Nice smell in the kitchen. Workers and owners are cool. I will be back again. read more

My family ordered 3 chicken bowls and 1 chicken/beef bowl and the food was cold in all the bowls. Such a disappointment.

It's a small shop but the lady making the food and taking orders is super sweet and fast. This is a hidden gem. I've had the salmon, pork cutlet, and udon. All good and decent prices. read more

I walked in and put a to-go order around 4:30pm. the shop is very small, but the tables were nice and clean. It was a hot day, but inside was nice and cool. The owner was very sweet; I put in my order: the #55 Kalbi short ribs / pork cutlet combo and a teriyaki chicken plate. The order went in fast, you could smell that the food was going to be good. I liked that my Kalbi ribs weren't covered in sickly-sweet sauce. it was bright and acidic and the portion were very nice. you could taste that the pork cutlet was fried in fresh oil -- it tasted very clean. and my father really liked the chicken teriyaki. I thought my order was very good. I'm excited to try more food from them soon. read more

Ordered a plate of the spicy chicken to-go. Not spicy at all :P but nonetheless it was DELICIOUS and generously portioned for the price! I'm usually not a fan of alot of teriyaki places' side salads but theirs was so good and the dressing paired nicely with the teriyaki chicken (I'm a fan of hawaiian food so it was similar to Mac salad flavor). Will definitely eat here again!! read more

There prices are not what they charge you, I've been a loyal customer for so long and since they been under new management you can tell the huge difference in the environment and food. I asked the lady why she was over charging me and she couldn't even give me a answer. Horrible they lost a good customer read more

The food here feels like home away from home. The tempura is light and flaky and we also tried the pork belly kimchi fried rice, which was delicious. The portions were huge so we took the rest home. There was a sign saying they sell kimchi and if it's like the side dish we had, would be so tasty read more

Very kind staff and authentic cuisine, delicious food. 10/10 experience would recommend to anyone looking for a quick bite

I took my family of 10 there when I visited from Hawaii. Every one just loved the foods. They were fresh, delicious and generous. The service and price were wonderful. I wish they move to Hawaii so I can go there regularly. My family members who live in Orange County became an instant fan and have already become regulars. Money so well spent!!! read more

I will forever keep supporting this small business till I die ! Haha . they are best and hands down the best mom and pop shop around the corner . They are extremely nice, clean and super fast on orders. I have been going here for the past 7 years since I lived around here and not once have I ever been disappointed. I highly recommend the chicken teriyaki bento box! And any sushi plate you want to get it, it's all so good! read more

Everything we had was so good! The taste was very original and no MSG! I know because when I have MSG food, I get very thirsty and tired afterwards. The service was excellent as well. Very welcoming. I wish I took a picture, but missed my chance. I will definitely take my friends next time! read more

After the disappointment of discovering that Eat My Bowl was closed, this placed showed up on Yelp. Well I guess we'll give it try. :l While it was by no means bad, nothing was fantastic. For $10, I got full off of the combo that included miso soup, rice, salad, kalbi beef, chicken katsu, and crunch roll. It was all good, but nothing really to write home about. When one orders shrimp tempura udon, one normally expects at least 2 large shrimp tempura inside of the udon. Maui Rose Hawaiian BBQ however does not see it this way and only serves one singular shrimp tempura with the udon. It wasn't even that big. Needless to say we laughed in a nervous WTF sort of way. Its kind of far away from where we are, so I wouldn't see us returning because of the distance, and the food wasn't mind-blowing like other places we've been to where we're willing to go the extra mile to get it. Oh well :l read more

place is a mess, food is horrid. the too-bad lady who was working there seems genuinely nice....

Fast food type restaurant, kinda like L&L, but Maui Rose service was sloooow and the food wasn't all that. I had the shrimp tempura udon, the broth was bland and the rest didn't have much of a taste. I also ordered a crunchy shrimp tempura roll, it was way better then the udon,but I have had better. The young girl behind the counter was friendly... Btw, I'm not a big fan about L&L either. read more

My go to Japanese place for the last couple years. Owners are friendly, pricing is good and food is always great and plentiful.

Definitely my favorite place to go for good fresh Japanese food that's inexpensive but doesn't compromise its quality. Service is always friendly and welcoming. They don't skimp on portions either. read more

Picked up a tempura sushi roll today and it was cold. Disappointed in the quality. First time coming here and probably my last.

i freakin love this place! They did a party platter for my baby shower and it was so amazing and beautiful and affordable. Their teriyaki is top notch, but my ultimate favorite is the unagi bowl! They have basically everything you could imagine on a comfort food japanese menu (not super traditional, but they got all the basics and they do it well). i'm drooling just thinking about it and think i might get some now lol read more

I ordered 2 Medium Chicken Bowls, A Jalapeno Bomb, and 1 Sushi Roll for only $28.28. The bowls come with sides of steamed vegs and both the Jalapeno Bomb & Sushi Roll came with a side of eel sauce as well as wasabi/ginger. They also threw in a FREE order of gyoza/potstickers for me! For the amount of food you get from this place, the price cant be beat. Only thing I would say is the Roll was okay and the Gyoza dipping sauce was rather bland. Cheers! read more
