    Oahu Hawaiian BBQ Mix beef chicken and short ribs with fried rice
    Jennifer H.

    Nice inside and clean tons of tables and this is my first time here I been wanting to come so I waited for a while before i decided to come after they opened. I walked in see fridge of chinese drinks so I like that. I ordered oahu hawaiian bbq mix chicken, beef and short ribs with fried rice with macroni salad...the macroni salad was ok, the fried rice was ok the strips of chicken and beef was good. The short ribs was good as well. Tons of veggies underneigh the meats. The service cashier who took my order was very nice although the bubble tea machine was not ready ill come back next time to try the drinks I got a soda fountain drink and the soda fountain machine was not working property. It was hard to get the drink out when i pressed the cup to it. I ordered for take out I will come back next time to get the bubble tea, chinese drinks and other food.

    My family and I enjoyed our visit here. Being from the islands I recognize it's very hard to find a place on the east coast that does Hawaiian plate lunch meals well. But I was very impressed with the kalbi short ribs and the Mac salad. They stood out the most. Everything else was good. I'd rank flavor and freshness of meal at a 7/10. The Mac salad and short ribs I'd give a 9/10. Great location and large space inside. I'm not a fan of ordering from a screen. But that's just a personal preference.

    While in the area looking for a quick bite to eat for lunch, I stopped by Oahu Hawaiian BBQ to try out their food. As soon as I walked in, I noticed the self-order kiosk which I really liked because it gave me time to look through each item to decide on what I wanted to order. The Hawaiian BBQ Mix caught my eye, it consisted of chicken, beef and short ribs along with macaroni salad, fried rice and broccoli. I figured that was the best item to order since it included a little bit of everything. I also ordered the Spam Musubi, which is a popular Hawaiian snack, and the Peach Berry Fruit Tea as well, which was one of their popular tea flavors. My food was ready fairly quickly and since I happened to run into a friend, I decided to dine in. The Spam Musubi was very good. I enjoyed the crispiness of the spam along with the rice and seaweed. The chicken, beef and short ribs were also delicious, very flavorful and went great with the fried rice. The Peach Berry Fruit Tea was refreshing but I would probably order less boba next time. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Unfortunately, they are located next to a nail shop and I kept smelling acetone and odor from the the nail shop while eating my food so I probably won't dine in next time but I highly recommend trying them out!

    Man, I feel bad doing this, but the newly opened Oahu is not ready for the general public. There are issues that I would like to believe are simply new store/grand opening issues, but much of it I feel goes beyond that. Let's begin with the service. When I arrived, I noticed 3 people working. They were friendly when I spoke to them, but they were a little busy as there was a good bit of customers. Being busy is a good thing, though. I immediately went to the kiosk - I knew I wanted to try their Loco Moco (I feel like I have to order that whenever I try out a Hawai'ian eatery for the first time), and I ordered an appetizer - Musubi Trio. I also ordered a fountain soda, paid and the kiosk printed out my receipt. The receipt displays your order number. The staff, when your food's ready, will call out that number so you can pick it up at the counter. That's easy enough, since I've experienced that before at Supreme Wing (at Lynnhaven, whom I believe is changing their name to Aloha Hola) and L & L (in Chesapeake). A word of advice - keep your receipt handy. If you order a fountain drink, they will ask for it before they hand you a cup. As for the interior - all the walls were red. It reminded me of Supreme's interior, but I don't think red is a color used often in Hawai'i. I could be completely wrong about that, though, as I'm not thoroughly knowledgeable in Hawai'ian culture. The important thing is their facility looked clean, although dividers were built which made the dining area smaller. The wait for my food was a little long, but I came in expecting that since they're brand new. Besides, it was a lunch rush, so things got a little crazy. After about 15-20 minutes, my order was ready, but they weren't ready at the same time. I picked up my entree (loco moco) first, then I picked up the musubi trio less than 5 minutes later. At first glance, admittedly, the loco moco didn't look all that appealing. It was apparent both the macaroni salad and slaw were runny. The loco moco didn't look bad, but the presentation was... different. The patties weren't plated side by side, rather stacked, so the gravy only covered the top patty. And, instead of 2 sunny-side up eggs, there was only one. When I tried the loco moco, the patties were overcooked. They were dry and tough, and the gravy was salty. The rice and egg were fine, but I couldn't stomach the slaw (I took a small bite and immediately decided to leave the slaw alone). I'm convinced the slaw was bought from a local grocery - it was all liquid and the cabbage was soggy and limp. The mac salad was okay, but it was just as runny as the slaw. I enjoyed the musubi trio, though. Just in case, the musubi trio is usually a protein and rice in a seaweed wrap. The Trio typically consists of the following - 1 each of spam, BBQ chicken and katsu chicken. They weren't rolled all that well, and they didn't look like traditional musubi, but they tasted good. I would say that the Musubi Trio was the best part of my meal. The staff working during my visit was super nice. They ran into an issue while I was eating - their computer somehow deleted all the orders, so they visited each table to review customers' receipts to reconfirm orders. They were already busy due to volume, but this set them back further. Oahu, in my opinion, needs work, specifically with the quality of their food. Regardless of authenticity, the slaw (and mac salad) cannot be that soggy and watery, the gravy for the loco moco can't be that salty, and its patties can't be overcooked and tough. And I can't get over how the portion sizes of the loco moco's sides were nearly identical to the loco moco itself (i.e., I prefer more entree, less sides, especially if the sides aren't appealing). I'm gonna pass on Oahu for now but thank you for your efforts! JV

    Crab rangoon

    My friend and I tried this place and we were pleasantly surprised! The service was great. Ms. Ivy and her staff were helpful with what items were popular. The food took a few minutes to prepare but was hot and a good portion of they have serval sauces to choose from (labeling the bottles would be helpful). Mere macaroni salad was probably my least favorite. Just not a fan in general. Everything was tasty. I really liked the crab rangoons (not Hawaiian but delicious). I feel like they have a petty diverse menu that includes some true Hawaiian options. The portion size alone makes me feel like I would visit again. The spam musabi is also delish! They are large too! 4 STARS. I need to find a substitute for the macaroni salad and the sauces need to be labeled. Entering else was good!

    Wow! This place just opened and it's amazing. Very nice decor and Hawaiian theme colors ! Also have private area for big parties. The service was nice and quick. They have good selection from BBQ, wings, seafood, chicken , pork, beef, tons of appetizers, Oahu dishes and OMG...they even have selection on Musubi. I ordered BBQ Short Ribs combo, and it was tender and delicious! Very tender and good size portions! I am excited to come back and try other tasty dishes. This Island girl will definitely come back!

    Katsu chicken and gravy

    Food was phenomenal!! Service was great as well! For food this good and a great price I was surprised to see not too many people there. Either way, we'll be back!

    03. Hawaiian Beef Mix
    Susan W.

    The food was solid and the service was good. I was visiting from out of town and wanted Hawaiian BBQ and this restaurant was recommended. I ordered the Hawaiian beef and short rib plate that came with mac salad, rice, and vegetables. The value was good for the portion size. I could barely finish half. The meat was seasoned well and really did remind me of my time living in HI. The Mac salad was just ok, and the fried rice and veggies were good. Overall, we were all satisfied with our meals. I've had Hawaiian BBQ at another restaurant in VB last time I was there and Oahu Hawaiian BBQ was much better.

    C1. Hawaiian BBQ Chicken

    Great food! Large portions! We got the bbq chicken and the spam masubi. Would go back again!

    Got takeaway from new Hawaiian BBQ restaurant at Loehman's - Oahu The BBQ (grilled) shrimp were delicious. The fried shrimp were basic frozen butterflied shrimp with lots of breading. Macaroni salad was delicious. Fried rice tasted like white rice with a little extra flavor. Short ribs were cut into small pieces, salty, without sweet marinade flavor of Korean style. My bf liked the chicken katsu and BBQ (grilled) chicken. It came with katsu sauce and a sweet pineapple flavored sauce.

    Hawaiian BBQ Mix Plate, Hawaiian Seafood Mix Plate, Pork Chop Mix Plate, Spam Musubi and Thai Tea
    Melissa L.

    Everything tasted great. The shrimp was breaded to perfection. Spam Musubi was delicious and Thai tea was made exactly how I ordered it! I ordered take out and everything was ready when I came in and the lady at the counter was so nice and helpful!

You would never suspect the great atmosphere of this venue from the location. But the charm of the place really isn't the story. This is the kind of place that offers a gastro pub menu and they do not disappoint with a familiar yet unique menu offering some truly great dishes and perhaps the best burgers in VB. Definitely coming back.

    We came here for Valentine's Day with a reservation for three (2 adults and a child). We were…read moregreeted warmly and seated right away, which was impressive given how busy it was. Our first table ended up being under a spotlight that was directly in our line of sight (it looked like it was meant for the specials board), so we asked to move. Staff was accommodating and got us to a better table quickly. The space itself is really nice. It was clean, rustically decorated, and the live plants in liquor bottles on the tables are a nice touch. Our server was friendly from the start and took drink orders right away. My daughter and I had sodas, and my husband ordered the Southern Charm Old Fashioned off the specials menu, which he enjoyed. The menu is on the smaller side, which we actually like. One unique detail was the option to "buy a round for the kitchen," which we thought was a really nice touch and decided to add it when we ordered our appetizer. We started with the fried deviled eggs after a friend recommended them. They were creative with three styles (classic with pickle, togarashi ginger, and crispy prosciutto), but overall a bit on the dry side and not as flavorful as we expected. We asked for Dijon, but they don't have it. Our server suggested and brought out the Baja dipping sauce instead, which did pair well and kind of improved them. My husband had the fish and chips and really enjoyed it. He said the fish was flaky and well cooked. I ordered the Union grilled cheese, which unfortunately seemed like it had been sitting a bit before being served, as the bottom was soggy. It was just okay overall and not particularly memorable for the price. The sweet potato fries on the side were the clear standout. They were crispy, the perfect balance of sweet and salty and honestly the best part of the dish. Our daughter had the kid's smashburger. It was exactly that. Service throughout the meal was good. She was friendly, attentive without being overbearing, and there when needed. The main disappointment came at the end. When our meals were served, the server actually offered sauces at the table (ketchup, mayo, ranch, etc.), and specifically suggested items like the baja sauce for the eggs and ranch to us. Because of that, we were surprised to see several charges for the sauces on the bill, especially since they were offered and recommended at the table with no mention of any additional cost. We were also charged a credit card fee, with no signage anywhere (entrance, hostess stand, or menu) indicating that paying with a card would include an extra charge. It just left an unnecessary sour note on an otherwise solid, casual meal. Nothing was bad, and nothing really stood out as exceptional, but the lack of transparency around those final charges really impacted the overall experience for us.

    We took a spontaneous trip to VB for dinner on a weeknight after seeing a reel recommending Hearth…read moreand am I glad we did! The ambiance was nice, the open kitchen with the wood fire hearth right at the entrance added a warm cozy feel from the onset. The restaurant was warmly lit but not dark. We were seated immediately in the far left dining area in an elevated booth. After reviewing the menu we settled on the fried deviled eggs and wood fire oysters for starters and the Vincent Vega pizza for dinner. Fried deviled eggs was a first for us and it was so good! The egg white was breaded very lightly and fried and the egg yolk was piped on top with a piece of smoky delicious bacon goodness. It had a nice smoky, bacon-y taste and we devoured them. I only wish you got more than 2 pieces. I think 4 pieces would be better for the price considering it's essentially one egg but I'm not complaining. The wood fire oysters was another hit for us, the serving came with 6 half shell oysters topped with breadcrumbs (light), swimming in butter and fire roasted. I think we ate these even faster than the deviled eggs lol! Would definitely get these again. The pizza also did not disappoint. If you like bacon, mushrooms and creamy Boursin cheese, you'll love this pizza. We added crushed red pepper flakes which added a nice kick. The crust is the star of the show; thin, crispy but still has body and slightly chewy. Yum! That wood fire hearth definitely makes a difference. Overall we had a great experience and will definitely be back! The staff were also very nice and friendly.

    Had dinner here last night. What a little treasure find this was. The Charcuterie board was robust…read more Awesome selection of meat and cheeses and accompaniments. The pickled garlic was an excellent addition to the board and the elk salami was fantastic. I had the steak sammy, which was a Sunday Special. It should be on the menu all the time. It was excellent. The fries were crisp and perfectly seasoned. My wife had the pork chop. It was perfectly cooked. Pork can be dry. This was not. Just well done and seasoned to perfection. My son had the steak sammy (like father like son) and his wife had the half chicken. It was all spectacular. So very good. For dessert we shared the cheesecake and the tiramisu bread pudding between the four of us. Everyone was happy. The portions were large so to go boxes were had by all. Special shoutout to Reagan our server. She was exceptional. Made the right recommendations on all things. Timed our orders perfectly and we had just an amazing time Thank you Hearth Wood Fired Cuisine and thank you Reagan for making my Father's day.
