This place is my absolute go-to for good food at a fair price with great portions! There's not a lot of options that fulfill all 3 of those qualities anymore. And if that wasn't enough the manager (who I think may be the owner?) is such a kind man who always makes me feel welcome whether I'm doing takeout or dining in. Once we were gifted free ice cream bars on a hot day because he saw we'd walked to the restaurant. And the another time I was doing takeout and he'd forgotten to add the extra side of coleslaw, we don't realize it until we were home and so didn't go back. we're regulars here so he must've known he'd see us again and to my surprise the next time we ordered (weeks later) he still remembered and gave us a free side of coleslaw! It's the kind of service that only comes from small businesses like this one. So if you like Hawaiian BBQ PLEASE come support and try this place out! read more

While trying to find a gas station to grab some snacks, we happened to drive by Oahu Hawaiian BBQ. We were so excited because we absolutely love Loco Moco and were equally excited to see that they served it. We went and got checked in at our hotel and placed an order through Grubhub for delivery. The wait time for delivery was about 30 minutes which wasn't too bad. Our food arrived and we couldn't wait to dig in. The first disappointment we found was that our egg was very undercooked. The white of the egg had a "snotty" look to it. We took the most undercooked parts of the egg off and then dug in. The second disappointment for us was that the rice tasted and felt like it had been sitting uncovered all day. Granted, it was around 8:30 when we ordered but I still expect to get fresh ingredients. The burger patties were not very well seasoned but were overall decent. The macaroni salad was really good and wish I had double portions of it. The coleslaw was good, creamy with a little bit of sweetness. Visually, the dish looked really good, but the overall flavor, texture and freshness just wasn't there. Would I try them again but dine in with them? Absolutely. I feel it is worth giving them another chance. read more

Oahu Hawaiian BBQ - B4 . Loco Moco - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

I came looking for Charcoal Chicken, but saw that they had moved and Oahu Hawaiian was now there. So I decided to check them out. I grew up in Hawaii, so I can't pass up a plate lunch... Lol. The owner was nice. He answered my questions. There's a kiosk you order from when you walk in. There was no one dining in, but there were several pickup orders. I was going to get the chicken katsu, but I saw a chicken kids meal for $7, so I got that and beef gyoza. For less than $15 that was a great deal because I got a good amount of food!! The gyoza was hot and fresh. They were very tasty. I should have gotten more than one order. Lol. The chicken was pretty good as well and it came with a tasty sauce. The chicken was a good texture, which I appreciated. Because I'm picky about chicken. The Mac salad was a little bland but I still enjoyed it. It was creamy and complimented the chicken. I think my meal was good and so was the service. Definitely check them out!! read more

Oahu Hawaiian BBQ - Oahu Hawaiian BBQ Mix beef chicken and short ribs with fried rice - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

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. read more

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! read more

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 read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

Oahu Hawaiian BBQ - Hawaiian BBQ Mix Plate, Hawaiian Seafood Mix Plate, Pork Chop Mix Plate, Spam Musubi and Thai Tea - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Nobody likes a bad review, but unfortunately it has to be done from time to time. The location of Oahu was easy to find with ample parking available. The decor was minimal but clean looking. It was entirely too hot in the establishment today (outside the heat index was 103) it was almost unbearable to eat in. My kiddos chose a spot to sit at and the smell of cigarette smoke was so strong, as if there's smoking inside the office near the tv and where the restrooms were located. The wait staff was nice and brought our food out individually- wait time wasn't long at all. The kids made chef kiss faces for the chicken nuggets and fries (perfectly salted). I ordered a chicken mix platter and to me the macaroni salad wasn't the best. The noodles were too cooked and the sauce was runny (as others have suggested). Unfortunately the dish tasted pretty bland. I will say the fried rice was the best thing on the plate - me and the kiddo shared the generous portion given. Sensory info: past reviews suggest there is smell of acetone due to the business next door, we didn't experience that as much as we did the strong smell of cigarette smoke. The music wasn't loud so having conversations was easy. For us, it was sensory hell with the mixture of the inside temp and smell of cigarette smoke. Best! read more

I went here with some friends and they wanted dinner one night before we stopped for ice cream. I want to say it was pretty good but I had some time to really think about it. It's doing a bit much as a place. It's definitely stretched a bit thin and offering a lot on their menu, but nothing was incredibly memorable. For the table I got the beef gyoza and we did finish it but I don't think it was anything crazy delicious. My friend got their beef and rice along with some macaroni salad, which I thought was great and seasoned well, but nothing truly exceptional. They also ordered the spam musibi and it was a rather large portion. I think that was a good benefit for that location is that the food portions were large for the amount that you are paying for it. I think this place is one of those locations that can get by and is good to try once, but any more than that and I can't justify spending the amount of money it takes to ear out here for it. read more

2nd time ordering from here. 1st time we ordered take out chicken katsu & loco moco. Chicken katsu was cooked to perfection! Portions were big, which is a plus! Presentation looked nice, Mac salad was decent and the rice was good. Loco moco was ok. Ordered katsu again for the second time and the chicken bbq mix plate. Katsu was just like the first time. Tasted great, portions still the same and Mac and rice was good. The bbq mix plate was good. Taste was great and only if there was a little bit more kalbi. Other than that, this place has replaced L&L Bbq as my best Hawaiian BBq place here in Va. my only advice is to stay consistent with the quality of the food and the portions. read more

Good portion, but I ordered the bbq chicken and it's just teriyaki, not Hawaiian BBQ. Good Chinese food.

Oahu Hawaiian BBQ - Coconut shrimp, fried rice, broccoli and macaroni salad. Crab ragoon app - Barbeque Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

The use of the words "Oahu" and "Hawaiian" is offensive to my Hawaiian family heritage. I'm from da island and this is NOT the local plate lunch dishes that I grew up with nor eat whenever I go home to visit my kanaka ohana. I ordered the "Hawaiian Curry Chicken"; first of all, if this was authentic to the Chicken Curry plate on da island it would NOT be listed with the word "Hawaiian"; the chicken used looks to be Chicken Katsu, and came with the curry sauce In a separate container. An authentic island Chicken Curry is cooked as a stew with chicken, carrots, celery and sometimes potatoes. At least the curry tasted like "island curry". The side of what I suppose was "Stewed Cabbage" was NOT authentic as it was dry and bland. The Mac Salad (which is a usual "side" on island plate lunches) is watery, there is no potato mixed in, and is made with the wrong mayo. Even the rice which is a staple of "local" plate lunches, is not short-grain rice and was dry. I think that it is safe to say is also the same rice used for their over-priced "Spam Musubi" (which on the menu, did NOT look like a "local" Musubi). I had the Takoyaki Ball which was actually delicious... but is NOT a typical appetizer on island plate lunch menus. This restaurant is very similar to "ALOHA BBQ" on Princess Anne... a mainland Asian restaurant posing as a "Hawaiian" food restaurant... SHAME. read more

Overall I was pretty happy with service and food. My family and I went here after going to 2nd and Charles. I ordered loco Moco, kids ordered spam masubi and boba drinks and hubby ordered coconut shrimp. They used some pretty big shrimp and gave a good size portion for the price! And the spam masubi was good too. Kids like them. Unfortunately the boba drinks didn't have any of the boba in it cuz they were still cooking when we ordered but the drinks weren't bad! I do which they had more Hawaiian flavored drinks in the bottled drink section but they did have other Asian drinks which I was ok with. The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 is because the loco Moco was not what I was expecting. The meat on the loco Moco was burnt and dry and there wasn't much gravy on it. I at least like the meat to be covered in gravy which sadly was not the case when we tried them. But I did like the Mac salad! And we will probably still go back when we r close by again read more

Ordered with Uber eats so I can't speak on staff or ambiance-but let me tell you--the food spoke for itself. Piping HOT out of the bag which says a lot considering the driver made another stop... Mac was okay but we got enough off the apps alone! Chicken katsu was heavy picking up so the portion size is generous to say the least My only gripe was the spam musubis price but when I saw and tasted the product -ZERO complaints! read more

The Cole slaw was not edible. Just nasty. The macaroni was ok. Spring rolls were slimy on the inside. The meat on the loco moco was just not that great. I'm not sure it was just over cooked and tough. I've been to Hawaii many times. Very disappointing read more

Good sized portions - bbq meats are tasty. Seems more like a nicer but casual fast food place than typical sit down restaurant. Mastsuba(?) with spam, rice and seaweed wrapper are our go to snacks now. read more

I almost didn't try this place because of the yelp reviews. I'm glad I ignored them and tried it anyways. Went here before noon on Sunday. My kids and I ordered through the kiosk. I like ordering through a kiosk because I can see the things I want to change (type of rice, veggie, etc) The soda machine wasn't working correctly and the gentleman that was sweeping, helped to get it going. Seemed like a switch or something needed to be flipped. We got our food and we were all impressed. I got the chicken katsu. Chicken was nice and crispy. Mac salad was spot on. My younger son got the sesame chicken. He really enjoyed it. My older son got the katsu curry. Curry isn't my thing but he said it was spot on. We really enjoyed Oahu Hawaiian BBQ. It's down the street from some after school activities that my kids participate in so I can see myself picking it up on a night when I don't feel like cooking dinner. read more
