Finally made it in for lunch!…read more I love the decor & vibe! Super cute, family friendly (small play area for kids/games) place!! You order and pay at counter then pick your plate at window to left of register when ready. Drink station in room to right of register. You choose your size plate that comes with rice, chosen protein(s) & a side. We each got a small plate ($12.99) that comes with rice, one meat, one side, & aloha sauce. The HAWAIIAN CHICKEN was delicious! So juicy and flavorful! Rice was good. SWEET & TANGY SALAD was good but average (good choice of lettuce mix. Dressing is like a tangy italian). My Mom's GARLIC BUTTER SHAVED SIRLOIN was the bomb. The MACARONI SALAD is good but needed a little something in my opinion - maybe some fresh green onion on top. The aloha sauce is good. We will be back to try more!

Overall: 3.7/5 [dine in]…read more Looks like your average fast food joint but the service was better than expected. The cashier who helped us was really nice and gave off small family business vibes. Ekolu Plate ($18.29) + Teri Steak ($1.99): We got the Da Big Boy plate to share which comes with 3 meat choices, rice, and a side. We went with pulehu chicken, katsu chicken, and teri steak with white rice and mac salad. The katsu chicken was the best, followed by the teri steak, then the pulehu chicken. If I come back I would just get the katsu chicken plate. The teri steak was okay and the pulehu chicken was lacking flavor, though it is probably the move if you are watching what you eat. The mac salad was addicting and did not feel or taste heavy at all. They were also nice enough to let us try all their sauces including teri, katsu sauce, spicy mayo, and yeobo, but none of them really stood out. P.O.G. Juice ($2.99): They charge this as a 22 oz regular fountain drink which is a great deal. P.O.G. stands for passion fruit, orange, and guava and I am not sure if they make it in house but it was really good and one of the best juices I have had in a while.

They have the "mini" as well as regular; me being small, I always go for the mini portions of chicken curry katsu or the loco moco.

You need to try Mo' Bettahs. We started going in the last few months and we have enjoyed the food…read more Freshly cook on the grill Teri Chicken, wonderful Kula Pig and Chicken Katsu. The pork has great flavor but make sure you get the pork from the pan juices. The Mini plate has plenty of food. You get 2 meats and 2 sides. I get rice with mixed vegs. Trying to be healthy. You order at the counter and pick your food out which is in front of you. Then pay and have a seat. They are a Hawaiian theme restaurant and the food is supposed to be as well. Never been to Hawaii but I like what Mo, Bettahs does.

Rating: 6/10 Date Last Visited: 7/12/2026…read more We ordered the Three Protein Create Your Own Bowl ($14). I got mine with salmon and tuna, and would definitely recommend the salmon over the tuna. The fish itself is decent, but the toppings were a bit lacking. They tasted a bit artificial/canned, but it's understandable for the price. The portions are decent and I think you get what you pay for, but overall I've had better poke. I can't speak on the Hawaiian BBQ tho. Overall, I would recommend if you want a quick casual poke bowl, but would not go out of my way for this.

The food is consistently good, and the location is very convenient, which is why I keep coming…read moreback. That said, this location seems to struggle with employee turnover. It often feels like there are new staff members who are still learning the ropes. Everyone I've interacted with has been polite and friendly, but the lack of experienced employees shows in the overall service. One area that stood out to me was the night supervisor's management style. Every interaction has felt very rigid and impersonal, with little warmth or customer service. It comes across as overly controlling rather than supportive, and I can imagine that type of environment contributes to the constant turnover. I genuinely enjoy the food, but I think this store would benefit from stronger leadership, better employee development, and a greater focus on creating a positive experience for both customers and staff.

I usually steer clear of chain restaurants, but the Waco location of L&L Hawaiian BBQ proved why…read moreI'm glad I made an exception. This franchise stands out above the rest in freshness and flavor. Everything tasted like it was made with real care, not just cranked out. The staff were so friendly and accommodating!! I ordered my go to choice, the Mix Grill Plate, and it blew me away. The meats were perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, and served in generous portions. As for the macaroni salad? It's hands down the best I've had at any of their locations I've visited. It was creamy, well-balanced, and the perfect complement to the hearty plate. If you're in Waco and even slightly considering it, just go. This location sets the bar high.

Alright now, this place is a gem!…read more I work with someone who raves about this place, and I finally decided to try it. Walking in, the young lady at the register was so sweet and pleasant. I had an online order and arrived a bit early, she politely let me know there would be a little wait, and I did not mind. I would, much rather wait, than walk in twenty minutes early to see my food just sitting there. It is a small space, but one that comes with warmth. What I chose: Mixed Plate Teriyaki Beef - The first bite, YES! The meat was seasoned so well, I was afraid the teriyaki sauce would overtake the flavor; it didn't. Both, the sauce and the seasoning complemented each other very well. The beef was thinly sliced and free of fat. I can't stand enjoying a bite, and out of nowhere, boom, a piece of fat. I'm not a beef person, but I'm so happy I tried something different. Hamburger Steak: I couldn't wait to try this, it's delicious! The patty is plenty and well seasoned; it isn't heavily seasoned, but well seasoned. It was juicy and not dried out, which sometimes happens. The gravy was perfect, and went perfectly with the meat patty. Next time, I will ask for more gravy and onions. I love grilled onions with meat patties. With my order, I asked for steamed veggies, but received rice instead. I don't eat rice often, but this is the one time I was happy with the mishap. I had a small bit with the gravy and patty, delicious!! Sides: Mac Salad and Rice - I didn't order rice; instead, it should have been steamed veggies. As I said above, the rice ended up being a great mishap; it was perfect with my meat patty and gravy. The mac salad, sadly, I didn't like. It wasn't horrible, it just didn't hit the right taste buds. Chocolate Mac Nut Cheesecake: I only tasted a spoonful of this, but it was good. I wouldn't get it again, for me, it was too sweet. They do have another cheesecake, which looks like a plain cheesecake, with a sauce on top. That, I will try. Spam Musubi: There seems to be more rice than what I am used to, so I cut it in half, and it made for the perfect bite. This was more than enough food; I have plenty to take to work for lunch and will have more to enjoy for dinner. I am so happy I visited. I will definitely visit periodically for a hamburger steak, and I am anxious to try their panko shrimp. Add them to your list, it is a must!!

They get a lot of online orders so they were busy with that, but I didn't mind because I was checking out the menu. I got the bento box and it was delicious. A large bed of rice with everything else sat upon it, I was pleasantly full afterwards. I grabbed a guava cake to take home and it barely made it home because the cake was DELICIOUS. I love guava and their confection was perfection. I seriously still think about it and can't wait to come back and try it again. I also got the wings, which were crispy and super favor full. I also got to try the butter and pumpk

There are a few spots around that are Hawaii-inspired, but nothing compares to this. Honestly?

I went with the Fried Fish and Teriyaki Chicken. The fish was crispy and the chicken was tender. Yum! Every plate lunch comes with cabbage, mac salad, and rice. Broke da mout! Huge bonus! They have a drive-thru. You don't even have to get out of the car to get a quality plate lunch. We will definitely be back. Mahalo nui loa!!

Although there was an employee behind the counter, her responsibilities do not include order…read moretaking. There was a kiosk for that. Even though the employee had yet to interact with me, I am prompted for a gratuity. The photos showcasing the menu items were not helpful. For instance, the photo for the Kalua Combo showed a chicken dish and Kalua Pork. When I was prompted for a chicken item, there were no photos. I could not select the chicken shown in the entree. Unlike the online menu which included Teriyaki Chicken, I only recall BBQ Chicken and Chicken Katsu as options. Fortunately, I opted for the Chicken Katsu. For my beverage, I chose a Hawaiian Sun canned drink. My order was served within 9 minutes. The service already did not match the gratuity. When I asked about my drink, I was pointed to the display case by the kiosk. Sadly, beverage delivery was neither one of her responsibilities nor included service. On their menu, "veggies" was included in various entrees. Veggie would have been a better description as the only vegetable was cabbage leaves. The cabbage was placed underneath the chicken and pork. The water from the cabbage caused the bottom portions of the meat to be soggy. Due to being breaded, the chicken was not as affected as the pork. Of the items served, I enjoyed the macaroni salad the most. It had plenty of flavor. The Kalua Pork which were not soaked in cabbage juice had an okay taste. Not only did the breading on Chicken Katsu provide flavor, it protected the chicken meat from being soggy. While a fork was served with my food, I had to grab a knife from the dispenser. The Chicken Katsu could have been eaten with a fork alone; the cabbage would have been difficult.
