Accessible Hawaiian comfort plates with friendly vibes and generous portions; best bets are katsu, loco moco, and kalua pork, while combo meats can be salty or dry; counter-service wait times vary.

The verdict

L&L Hawaiian Barbecue delivers solid casual dining with strong food quality anchored by exceptional chicken katsu and loco moco, though consistency challenges on multi-meat combos and saltiness prevent a higher grade. Friendly, welcoming service and a clean, inviting space with Hawaiian character make it a reliable neighborhood choice, but it lacks the execution polish or distinctive appeal of grade A establishments. Fair value and loyal repeat customers confirm solid performance within the casual counter-service category.

One caveat: Combo plates are frequently reported as overly salty or dry and lighter on protein
