After the usual, frustrating, enervating, yearly slog, called the tax preparation process, (paying nearly $40.00 for the online "convenience" of Tax Act) I ended up with zero rebate, no chance to e-file (for some reason), and needing to print the completed returns. (because a Microsoft update ruined my printer functionality years ago) In the same shopping strip as Staples, is a Hawaiian BBQ. They offer a Loco Moco that beats any of the others I've had. It is a rare treat to eat here. The last time I did, (my first time, actually), was shortly after Covid brought on isolation. Today, I decided to reward myself. The Loco Moco was as good (and as BIG) as I remembered it. It is a bit more expensive than most Loco Mocos, but twice as big and definitely worth the price. (nearly $20.00 if you get a large drink too) This Loco Moco gives you two large, very beefy hamburger pattys, (with brown gravy) two large eggs, two scoops of white rice, leafy cabbage, and a large scoop of macaroni salad. Make sure you have an empty stomach! Of course, the place has other menu items; staples, and a few specialties, but The Loco Moco is my personal favorite. Otherwise; the place is kept very clean, the drinks are from a self-serve dispenser, (refills are thus, not a problem) and the staff is professional and friendly. Took the sting from the tax grind off a bit. As Agent Dale Cooper once advised on the 1980's TV show Twin Peaks: "Treat yourself to a present everyday." For me, today's present was a Loco Moco at Aloha Hawaiian BBQ.
I've stopped in on numerous occasions over the years and have observed lack of enthusiasm with customers and customer service is fairly absent. It's a disappointing experience, however, I still return for the food. The food PORTIONS are GREAT for either multiple meals for one or sharable with another person. My personal favorite meal here is the Katsu chicken? plate which includes a scoop of macaroni, scoop of rice?, and cabbage . Nice work with food quality consistency?, however, a slight adjustment with the cashier's engagement with customers and I believe you would see a noticable difference in business?.
Picked up two meals for my sister and mom in L.A. I forgot to pack enough sauces, but they seemed to enjoy it. A lot of food given...Will visit again after my fast.
Above average taste. Reasonable price and generous portion. Clean. Far from my place, but this is the place I go when I am craving the Hawaiian BBQ.
Went in about 7:30 ordered 2 orders of the beef masubis and 2 sides of curry. They were training a new miss at the register and she accidentally charged me for spam. They said my order was done 9 minutes later only to have the main miss training catch it saying he was suppose to have beef. The cook argued with her and they fought back and forth. waited 20 minutes until 2 minutes after close before I got my order, inwhich the trainee said she checked it and it was correct. Got home and only half the order is beef the other half spam. Make matters worse they are closed and refusing to pick up the phone now... going back and expecting at least a refund or a remake on the order
My wife's favorite food place and I agree it has the best Hawaiian food ever best place in California for Hawaiian BBQ
Good place. Huge portions. One meal feeds at least 2 people. I just wish they would put the dine in food in different containers because the foam one was super full and it was so hard to eat from. Also, the cashier lady was on video call and super loud. I felt that this action was so inconvenient to do at a work place where people come to have a meal in peace. Nobody wants to know her private life details! I don't understand that video call trend with people, not taking into consideration all the others around them.
I like to go with friends to this place with my warmest recommendations. I visit this place often. I get very good feedback from my friends. The the cooking is yummy and the team is efficient and cooperative. Whenever we eat in this place we enjoy a delightful time. warmly recommended.
Friendly service, great value for the price! Quick.
Delish and huge portions!
