Not good. First time trying this place. Spent $45 and I regret it 1. Chicken katsu was dry, over cooked, and lacked flavor. 2. Ribs were also super dry and over cooked. 3. Egg rolls are mini egg rolls that taste like the frozen ones you buy in the freezer section of the grocery store. 4. Crispy shrimp was in the same category as the egg rolls. Tasted like nothing more than some Gordon's frozen boxed shrimp. 5. Mac salad was ok at best, but completely warm as it sat under the warm meat. 6. The "salad" they give you is seriously just a few pieces of lettuce that sits under the hot food as well. read more

Ordered a short rib plate and received one rib and if you want to call the second one maybe a quarter of one, it was just fat attached to the bone. Called to let them know and they said this is how they come. read more

It was Terrible!! Did a pick up order an EVERYTHING was COLD!! Never again..It was gross!!

I really love the spicy chicken and it doesn't disappoint . Could be awesome if the chicken could be breast but I can't complain it's so good. 5/5 read more

Love this place, everytime we go the food is consistent and wonderful! Fast service even during lunch rush and friendly staff. Appreciated how they were being cautious during this COVID-19 outbreak too. Best crispy shrimp in town! read more

Food is pretty good and prices are great, but the sauces are just off. I'm not quite sure what flavor profile they're trying to achieve. The katsu sauce is a weird Chinese sweet and sour concoction, and the barbecue sauce is a Korean-y gelatinous duck sauce/bbq marinade-it's just strange. Overall, it fits the bill if you're hankering for Hawaiian; it's the only choice in town. read more

Good food at a good price. The portions are fair, but the sides are what take up most of the plate. The flavor was good, and the sauces for the meats pair well. The breading on the shrimp was spot on. The BBQ chicken was also really delicious. They also have Hawaiian drinks and they are really good! read more

The service was good. My boyfriend loved his food but was sad that they messed up his order. He asked for grilled shrimp and he received fried, but really enjoyed it. I had a mini meal with pineapple chicken and it was good! I think the pineapple chicken had a lot of sauce maybe a little to much. Next time I go I'll get the short ribs and katsu chicken. read more

I love their food! The portions are great. I had their chicken bbq and it is very juicy! The rice and macaroni salad that comes with the meal is perfect. I will definitely need to try their other dishes but I've been here twice and both times were great! read more

The food here is so delicious and the BBQ chicken is the best. Large portions and quick service. Employees are nice and helpful.

My dad has mentioned this place a number of times so my husband and I decided to give it a try. I walked in and got my order to go, it was fast, fresh, and the girl working there was super nice and helpful! I didn't catch her name but, she was great! We got a good amount of food and the price is great for the quality. I will definitely be going back. I'm so happy we decided to give this place a try, it's been open for a while now and I'm sad that I've missed out this whole time. I definitely recommend it! read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - Pineapple Chicken mini meal is so good!!! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

Surprised to find Hawaiian food in Lompoc, and even more surprised to find GOOD Hawaiian food! We got the fish plate and appetizer sampler. The "grilled" mahi-mahi plate was actually battered and fried but it was a LOT of fish and was so delicious! The fish was tender and flavorful with a crispy light batter coating. The appetizer sampler was OK but next time would not get as I did not like all the pieces. Anyway worth a stop if you want some good local-kine food. read more

This place has pretty good food and they give you huge portions of it. The people who work here were very friendly. We got our food to go because it was sort of late at night. I had the BBQ chicken which was delicious. There are limited choices of side options but the salad and rice were both good. read more

I work next to L&L in Goleta, so I definitely see the comparisons. However, I enjoy the options at QQ Aloha BBQ, and I really appreciate the customer service. The owner saw our 4 month old, and talked about his own 3.5 month old. The manager was exceptionally friendly and made the experience awesome. The food is filling and a decent value. I got the pineapple chicken bowl (tasted similar to a sweet and sour pork, but chicken and sweeter). Overall, I recommend this place as an alternative to L&L and I think it's a nice place to stop after some Lompoc shopping. read more

Excellent food...the shrimp, rice, macaroni salad..outstanding. Korean BBQ ribs are gristly though, but so far that was the only negative I've encountered here food-wise. The other negative is the very uncomfortable wooden benches for seating. Service is at the counter, the cashiers are friendly and knowledgeable, the price is definitely right....BIG portions for your money. Bathroom is clean and well-stocked. Parking is in the private lot and right outside the door. This place is a lovely little gem well worth trying. We have been back several times! read more

My cowokers recommended this place for lunch or dinner. It was so good I ate here twice in a row. The food is delicous comfort food. The macaroni salad is the bomb. Their prices are decent and service is pretty quick. I like that there's no other restaurant in Lompoc (that I know of) that serves Hawaiian bbq so it always makes eating here a treat. read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - #7 Crispy shrimp meal - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

Price? Fair Service? Good Food? Good Portions? Great! I like coming here when I'm lazy to cook at home. Love the beef, Katus chicken, spam musubi and etc. sooo good, night swing by tomorrow and get me a plate to go :) read more

For about 10 dollars you can get an enormous plate of spar ribs, chicken, beef, salad, and mac-n-cheese. There is enough food to split with a friend or save for later. There is a substantial amount of bang for buck here which is why I rate this place at 4 stars. Getting down to the flavor of the food, I was most impressed with the spare ribs and the chicken was succulent and tender. The space of the restaurant is small but the service is quick and efficient with the average wait time about 5 minutes per plate. I really like this restaurant but I will reserve a star for the places that really ping an all around "wow" factor. It's better than ok, its great, but not wow. read more

I've been here a handful of times and each time is pleasant. The service is terrific, the portions are great and the food is delicious! It's the perfect little "hole in the wall." Also, if you like spicy food like me you'll enjoy their spicy options! read more

This hole-in-the-wall feel restaurant quickly shot up to one of my favorite places to go in town. With the great portions, decent pricing, and friendly atmosphere, it's well worth your patronage. I personally got the chicken katsu and crispy shrimp double meat plate and I was pleasantly surprised at how well breaded / fried everything came out. DELOICIOUS (for all my Parks and rec fans)! Wife got the beef and BBQ chicken double meat plate and she was also very happy with it! Go! read more

Average but good. I recommend the spicy chicken it does have a little kick to it. The beef has good flavor sometimes can be stringy. Today I got the crispy shrimp mini meal ($6.47). It's panko coated. Nothing out of this world, but still good haha. read more

Simple food. Their macaroni salad lacks flavor. While the meat is really good and the shrimp was nice and crispy. The "salad" on the bottom was just a few pieces of ice burg lettuce. read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - Three meat plate #34 shrimp, bbq chicken and beef - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

Had dinner here on Halloween. We were the only ones in the place. I was so excited to try it because I love Hawaiian food, and having one closer than Zoe's would be amazing! Unfortunately, everything we ordered was so wrong. (Ok except the gyoza it was average.) The Katsu sauce and the BBQ sauce had some sort of just .... Off taste to it. White rice was... Rice.... And the Mac was average too, had more veggies and texture than Zoey's does, which I enjoyed. The chicken was fried wonderfully, but the beef was so fatty and tough that it was stuck in everyone's teeth. The portions were decent. I think what made the experience so bad was that the sauces were so..... strange..... Everything they served us that night required the sauces to be added to give the meat any type of flavor. So with bad sauces, we ended up with dry meat. To each their own, but I think I will take that drive to Santa Maria when I have a hankering. read more

I love me some Hawaiian bbq and this place was horrible. I got the #20 which looked great on presentation but the Katsu chicken had no flavor and had a weird taste as if dropped in the fryer straight from the freezer. The Katsu sauce made me sick, the bbq chicken had absolutely no flavor what so ever, the rice tasted over cooked, and the macaroni salad had too much mayonnaise. If they don't make some changes soon they will be closing their doors permanently. Not trying to give such a hard review but I'm actually feeling sick. read more

I don't understand the low stars here! Wow! I have travelled all over the world with hundreds of stays in Hawaii. When we walked in, it was your typical small quick serve style restaurant. However, it was immaculate! The aroma just in the parking lot was inviting. Then you walk in and BAM!!!! Delicious Bold Aroma! The food is cooked fresh to order by an obviously Hawaiian Grill Master. We carried the food home to eat. The short drive, with the wonderful aroma made us even hungrier. On first bite, I could close my eyes and imagine sitting in Honolulu's International Marketplace!!!! Bonus, the portions are huge! I will definitely go there again, and again. Recommend it to neighbors & friends. Treat out-of-town guests to QQ Aloha BBQ. I will even consider using them to cater a party!! Don't let the low stars hold you back. I am a trained Chef and know what I am talking about! read more

I normally don't review restaurants on Yelp. However, on Wednesday night I purchased food for myself and my fiance, everything was good it tasted well. At 2 the morning I was throwing up horrible stomach ache I got food poisoning from what I ate at this restaurant. On Thursday the whole day I was in bed in pain and running to the bathroom. Luckily I was able to prevent my fiance from eating this since I purchased his food for the next day for him to eat. It's Friday I am feeling better than yesterday I'm able to eat very little compared to yesterday I didn't eat anything at all. I'm just disappointed that no I'm not going to be able to eat here again because I'm afraid of that I'll be getting sick again. read more

We ordered two Kalbi short rib meals and they both did not have enough flavor. Unfortunately this was the blandest Hawaiian food I ever tasted. Even the macaroni salad had no seasoning. The rice was adequate. The short rib meat tasted like it had no marinade. I would definitely stay away from the Kalbi at this place and try something else if I ate here again. read more

The family and I have been here 3 times now and we love it. The chicken katsu and BBQ chicken are always delicious. The girls that work the counter are super nice and always welcoming. Prices are very reasonable especially for the amount of food you get. The only reason they don't get 5 stars from me is the lack of pork dishes, usually a staple in Hawaiin restaurants. Add some pork and you get a 5! read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - Family meal deal takeout - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

Went the day after grand opening. Tried calling to order but no answer. Showed up at 11:30 and I knew why they didn't answer. Everyone in town must have been there. Waited about 15-20 minutes after ordering to get my food which wasn't bad considering all the people. I got the Aloha BBQ mix and it was good. All the meat was moist and not over cooked, had full flavor, and was hot when I got it. The sides (rice and macaroni salad) were ordinary but the meat was excellent. I got mine to go but the inside of the restaurant looked nice and clean if you wondered about that aspect. Once the hype of a new place calms down I'm sure it will be even better. I will be back a few more times but for now a 4 of 5. Give it a try you will probably like it. read more

QQ Aloha BBQ - The Aloha BBQ Mix. Short Ribs, Beef, and Chicken. Very tasty - Asian Fusion Near Me - Lompoc, California

See all

Great food and service. I make it a point to stop here when I'm in the area. It's much better than the chain Hawaiian BBQ places.

Came here when they first opened, food was ok, tasted precooked and just reheated. More recently they cook everything fresh. I like the katsu chicken the best. Husband likes the aloha meal with beef short ribs and chicken. I forgot to write this review previously, but today I didn't have the best experience. I did a phone pick up ordsr, takes about 10-15 mins for pick up. I was on lunch from work. Ordered a starbucks and picked that up in mean time. Came to get my order and no where to be found. Cashier Robin stated she just threw it out. I ordered at 11:08 am, picked up at 11:25. Guess I was 2 mins late and instead of me since they take down your number and not your name to tell me your order is ready for pick-up you just throw out of perfectly good meal?. Not only was I still getting a full charge of the meal which I would assume they would discount or give it at no charge for their mishap I did not even get an apology until I said yeah let me just spend the rest of my lunch waiting for my lunch and not get to eat it she then apologized and said sorry and that was it. I went out to the car to get my cell phone so I had something to do while I waited and she did offers me a free bottle of water or free beverage which yes was nice but no need because I just picked up a coffee I would have appreciated the charge for the meal being waived or at a discount. With that being said for my experience today their food is still good I wouldn't let this one time deter me from not going back it's just unfortunate their customer service Lacks. There is another girl I believe her name is Yvette she was there when Quiznos was there and she's always a delight read more

We love this place. It's so good. We could honestly eat this everyday. You get a lot for your money!

I ordered the coconut shrimp bowl. It was awful. It was basically fried shrimp with pineapple chunks and a weird sweet sauce. Not at all like the coconut shrimp I have had at any of the other Hawaiian restaurants I have been to. It's a shame that management refused to give me a refund. I will never be back. read more

Dumping and BBQ Chicken are excellent. Friendly and helpful staff. Definitely will come back.

Price for your combo meals were okay and fair for the amount of food but the quality of meat and flavor was lacking big time!!!! The Kalbi ribs had no flavor, the beef was stringy and chewy and chicken was salty. I am hoping this is all due to being new and having to work out new business kinks. I may try again in a few weeks to give them time to work out the kinks. I have had many Hawaiian bbq's and so far L & L seems to be the best. I was hoping Aloha was going to be their competition. Please correct the meat quality and flavor and I will happily change my review. read more
