Well I just got here. Cute and clean with nice people working here. The food is on the way but for all the poo poo reviews the place is packed. I ordered the tempura shrimp appetizer - delicious I ordered the steak bowl with white rice and steamed veggies with teriyaki - also delicious, hearty, perfect temperature and filling. So unsure why the negative review vibes but to each their own. Come get some whole food! read more

They need to bring pricing down to be competitive. It's sad you can go to Outback Steakhouse and get a meal for cheaper than a rice bowl at Rumbis. read more

Writing this review to add the gluten free options. It was hard to find exactly what was gluten free online. This is an easy to look at menu of what is gluten free. This rumbis is hit or miss. Sometimes everything tastes amazing and sometimes it doesn't. Service is always good here. read more

The food is so yummy here and the service was absolutely amazing!!! I can't wait to come back with my family

I don't think anyone has really cracked the code for island food here in Utah, and I don't think this place is going to change that. Small portions, OK but fairly average food. I don't see this place being around a few years from now.. all the workers were nice, I wish them the best and I hope to be proven wrong. I've been twice, but just didn't really like it that much. read more

Fish tacos so yummy to me!! And also the sweet potato fries are so yummy to me too and I love them!

Last time we visited we had a great choice of meats and the food was fresh and hot! We loved it and always get the sweet potato fries.

What happened to this location? We waited for over 45 minutes to get our food. Not busy at all, and we checked on our food three times and we're told it was coming out. In the meantime, 15 or 20 people came and left. Quality of the food was OK, but the service was pretty bad. That's a shame, because we like to go there often, but probably won't anymore. read more

The food was fast and delicious! The staff was very kind and the restaurant was nice and clean

Great place to eat! Love their food! Best meal is the blackened salmon! Family friendly

I was very hungry so please don't judge me for really liking my food. :-) Service was great, greeted with a smile upon entering. Food came out quickly and piping hot, the soup was great tasting almost like a Tom Kha Kai Thai style. Voodoo chicken salad and fish taco were both very tasty as well. Although I was the only person in the whole restaurant in a very busy plaza at dinner time makes me wonder how much longer they can stick around with no customers? For sure will come back when I need a quick fix. read more

Rumbi Island Grill - Voodoo chicken salad, fish taco, and tortilla chicken soup. - American Near Me - Draper, Utah

Johnathon has excellent customer service. It's a delight to come to your restaurant & see a smiling face. He is helpful and offered great suggestions. Food was Excellent. We got the Mahi Mahi. The fish was fresh and well prepared. We asked for extra sauce while eating and with a "absolutely let me bring that out for you" Johnathon delivered it. The food is worth the cost. Always fresh & enticing. read more

The food tastes delicious it's fresh and comes out quickly and I recommend it the animals fried are the best

Great atmosphere and wonderful service. I love that they employ local youth to give them a taste of work life. Chef if friendly and quick to get the food out. Try the Caribbean shrimp and chicken! read more

Voodoo chicken salad is great. And we love the sweet potatoes are awesome. Overall good choice.

I came here for dinner one cole wintry day. The guys working there were really nice. No line, and my food came quickly. The restaurant was clean. The food was good. I would totally get the pork tacos again. Rumbi bowls are good, and sweet potato fries are amazing too, but the tacos are a good choice. read more

Rumbi Island Grill - Rumbi Sweet Pork Tacos - American Near Me - Draper, Utah

Normally Rhumbi gets a 4-5 star, but NOT THIS LOCATION! They were out of Pork, so our delivery order arrived one meal shy. They claimed their phones were down and that they couldn't call to let us know. Strange how they answered the phone though. They would not give us a refund, but took down our name and number and promised to give us a voucher at a later date (any guesses on Whether they will honor that). Then we opened our meals and discovered they left the sauce completely off our salmon/prepared it wrong. The Red flag should have been when this location claimed they could not handle any special instructions such as "please leave cheese off the salad." Wow. Epic fail on food and customer service. read more

fabulous food! a long time favorite. really enjoy the customer service here as well.

Terrible food and service My food was literally chicken.. white rice .. with a cup of sauce! This is not at all what it used to be. Server was rude. The teriyaki bowls served at the high school is better. So disappointed. read more

i'll let you in on a little secret (if you didn't know already)... there's a new-ish app called 2for1 that is accessible to anyone who lives in utah. you can get buy one get one free meals or half off an order at places like rumbi, barbacoa, JCW's, roxberry, & much, much more! this is what brought us in here for dinner on a monday night just two weeks ago, there was a deal for buy one entree, get one of equal or lesser value for free. the restaurant was completely empty, so we ordered promptly and the food was out pretty quick as well. i hadn't been to s rumbi in over a year and a half, but the food was good & i had a discount so ill probably keep coming back! we both got the bowls, mine consisted of noodles, luau pork, grilled shrimp, & veggies topped off with sweet & sour sauce. we also got the sweet potato fries & my husband got a pineapple upside down cake for a treat. the staff was super generous with our portions, we ended up taking a lot of it home! read more

Great rice bowls with meat of your choice. Kids eat free with purchase of adult meals on mondays and Tuesdays after 4pm. Great , fresh food! Quick service and friendly staff. read more

I always hope "next time this place will be better". But it isn't. The service is always terrible - always understaffed, unfriendly. The food is great sometimes and awful the next. They need some new management. read more

Ordered from Grub Hub. My sons burger looked like it was made at the beginning of the day. It was cold and looked pink. The chicken on my rice bowl was off. It did not taste like freshly cooked chicken. Potentially precooked chicken. It was inedible. I am highly disappointed. Quality has definitely gone down the drain. Super unfortunate, it was one of my favorite go to places. Time to check out different Hawaiian joints in town. read more

Suuuuuuper bland. I got a bowl with tofu and I'm honestly pissed at how mediocre it was. No flavor whatsoever. I even had extra sauce and it was still bleh. Worst 11$ I ever spent. The only reason I gave it 2 stars was because it was clean and the girl who helped us was nice. Save your money and go to Teriyaki Bowl in the next lot over! read more

The Draper location is amazing! The people who work there are so friendly, the food is so fresh and delicious--you can't go wrong eating there. It is my favorite place for lunch and enjoy the happy atmosphere! Aloha from Debbie! read more

I really like Rumbi. Food is always great and I've never had a negative experience with service. Until now however. Don't get me wrong the cashier was very nice and greeted me with a warm "Aloha". But everything after I made my order was far from satisfactory. First off, the environment was disgusting. It looked like nobody cared to clean at all. Every table still had bits of food on it or was sticky. The floor was even worse with spilt food and napkins covering the floor. The food was "meh" with undercooked or under-nuked veggies that tasted watery. I ordered the rice bowl with chicken and teriyaki sauce which wasn't as good as I remember. Also, not a big deal but even the utensils weren't organized with forks and knives sharing the same cup holder. Overall, the only good experience I had from this particular location was the service. read more

Worst delivery and food ever. Delivered by Grubhub with EVERY container overturned to the point of unrecognizable entrees. The coconut shrimp tasted like it had been cooked a week ago and microwaved multiple times. Extremely disappointed in delivery and preparation considering $45 bought a sub optimal meal. read more

Really disappointed in the music choice. This place claims to be an "Island Grill" but loses the authentic feel in the atmosphere by playing country and pop music. When I eat at culturally themed restaurants, I always appreciate music that sets the tone and helps enhance the experience as if you're present. The food was decent and I'd eat here again, but I feel the music choice would make the experience much more satisfying. Playing Island or Island Reggae style music is a simple suggestion that I believe would go a long way. Sam served us our food and was amazing. He was very personable, kinda and efficient with us and everyone we saw him interact with during our meal. We'd give him 5 stars. read more

This was my first time here and I am thoroughly impressed with my food choice! I got the island pork tacos with brown rice and it was so delicious. I have found my new favorite place read more

Ok so it's Friday night and the place isn't busy because it's almost 8:30. However, it is FILTHY. Not one table is clean, even the two bars to the side of the cashier are covered in rice. Conclusion, can't eat in a pigsty :/ read more

Christmas shopping with my sister and nieces and suddenly we were starving. Same great food as always and good portions sizes so we don't feel too full to continue shipping! Issac was delightful. read more

Brutal wait time for a simple teriyaki bowl. It worth the 45 minute wait! The staff there seemed completely confused and out of sorts. Will not be returning. read more

I've spent a lot of quality time on my beloved Hawaiian islands. I miss it desperately beginning the moment I head back to the airport. Rumbi provides me with a tiny twinkle of Aloha in the midst of an Aloha-less mainland. The decor and background music at Rumbi is a exhilirating reminder of Pacific sea breezes, surf bums, and sand between your toes. They offer consistently good salads, rice bowls, tacos and platters. They have regular featured specials which I always fall for...and am usually glad I did. They're generally very tasty, and many more should rightfully be added to the permanent menu (a la Cabo Fish Tacos, yum!). A delightful Rumbi salad is my standard choice if the special doesn't get in my head. I especially enjoy the Caribbean Chicken, Aloha Chicken, and Hula Chicken salads. The dressing is extraordinarily unhealthy, but worth the extra calories because it's soooo gooood. The Mango Passionfruit Vinaigrette is my favorite. (I may or may not have been spotted ordering extra sides of this dressing in the past, pouring one entire serving on the salad and using the other serving in which to dip those "less coated" bites. Shameful.) Hubby is partial to the rice bowls, and loves the Spicy Hawaiian Teriyaki with chicken. I have to admit, it's pretty good. But for my money, if it's a rice bowl, it's the chicken bowl with their fabulous Honey Orange sauce - dreamy! Especially when you add Sriracha (the bottled sauce of proper Gods and Kings, galaxy-wide). You get the choice of brown rice, too, which makes it even more amazing. (Can I get a witness?!?) Shockingly, I've never had a Rumbi sandwich. In fact, I didn't even realize they offered sandwiches until I saw a guy literally shoving one down his throat the last time I was there. I'm pretty sure it was not properly masticated. But he certainly seemed to enjoy it all the same... I love many things about Rumbi. I love that you can call-in your to-go order and breeze by to pick it up. I love the cafeteria-type set up for ordering and paying - quicker than waiting for someone to come to you for order-taking. I love that the staff are all friendly and welcoming, and don't care that you spend far too much time at the order counter deciding what to get. I love that they offer large and small bottles of Fiji water as an alternative to the self-serve soda machines. AND, my most recent infatuation at Rumbi: Rumbi Fries! They're SO sexy! How did I miss this aspect of my beloved Rumbi for so long??? They're half sweet potato fries, which in and of itself is brilliant. Their crispy, perfectly seasoned outsides and deliciously creamy insides have smitten me. I don't even add salt to these beauties. They come with relatively tasty fry sauce, but frankly it does little to contribute to the deliciousness of the fries themselves. These may be the first and last fries I eat completely naked. The only things I have legit complaints about at Rumbi are (1) this location is such a bother to get in and out of (in a very busy area of Draper, and parking, although a big lot, is always a challenge); and (2) it seems to me that the to-go food is a lot smaller serving size than what you get when you dine in. Sufficient enough, but there really should be no difference in the amount of food you get either way, IMO. Do yourself a favor and get a little Aloha in your week. Rumbi can hook you up...a'hui hou! read more

I love their menu. Rice/noodle bowls are often just what I want. For a while, their portions got smaller (right after a price increase, to make it worse!) There must have been a lot of complaints, because they almost warrant the price again, now. today was the first time I had a Mahi Mahi plate with salad--really tasty. Love the island music and flavor to the iced tea! read more

Only have 30-45 minutes for lunch and want a great salad? I've hit this place at least twice a week for the past year. My favorites: Voodoo Chicken Salad, Aloha Chicken Salad, and the Caribbean Chicken Salad. Try the Rumbi (sweet potato) Fries for something fun or the Hawiian Teriyaki noodle bowl to carbo load before a big training day. read more
