L&L Hawaiian Barbecue

Amazing Catering Experience with L&L Hawaiian Barbecue at Pa'ina Lãnai Food Court in Royal Hawaiian Center!Our large family is staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in three condos and wanted to enjoy a relaxed dinner together at one of the condos. We decided to order catering from L&L Hawaiian Barbecue at the Pa'ina Lãnai Food Court, and it was a great decision we made!I spoke with Jessica over the phone to place the order, and as someone with extensive experience in catering coordination, I was blown away by the exceptional service. Jessica was friendly, efficient, and thorough. She not only took my order for a small trays of Katsu chicken, BBQ chicken, rice, and macaroni salad but also followed up with a text message summary and a copy of the receipt--talk about thoughtful service! (her service was so exceptional, I asked if she was a franchise owner when I picked up the food and was surprised that she was an employee, not the owner)The food was ready exactly on time and packaged perfectly for our short walk back to the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Everything was absolutely delicious, and our entire family couldn't have been happier. We even had plenty of leftovers to enjoy throughout the day today!If you're in Waikiki and looking for an easy, delicious meal to enjoy with family or friends, I highly recommend L&L Hawaiian Barbecue. They made our evening hassle-free and memorable--top-notch food and service!

I came here to get a quick bite to eat for lunch and ordered the barbecue chicken plate. For what you get I would say it's pretty expensive but I do love the macaroni salad and with the rice and salad, it's enough to make you full. It's a simple bite, but given that it's a chain, I would preferably visit somewhere like rainbow, driving unique to Hawaii.

Basic, good food served up hot and fresh. Really sweet service. If you get a breakfast sandwich, ask them to toast the bread more. Trust me. Still a great sandwich made fresh to order. One of only 2 places I ate at more than once in my week in Waikiki, because it's close to the hotel, good, and reasonably priced.

L&L bbq is pretty good! The portion size is huge and the Mac salad is also very yummy. We got the bbq plate and it was all very delicious- a little salty and some of the meat had a "meaty" smell, but overall good for the price. Located in a food court, finding seating might be difficult and it's loud. The service was very good and the girl who took our order was nice! It's nothing spectacular, but it's fast food. Enjoyed it!

What a surprise to find L&L!!Right in the midst of Pā'ina Lānai Food Court in the Royal Hawaiian Center second floor you'd never known this area exist unless you know and gosh what you'll be missing...I believe once was Subway is now L&L Hawaiian BBQ the name pretty much says it all and if you don't know it will pique your curiosity of what it has to offer...with pictures showcasing the popular items like BBQ Mix, Chicken Katsu, Loco Moco, Musubi and what I got Saimin with Spam.Walking up to the service counter it's cool to see all the container labeling sizes (mini and regular plate) soft drink cups and can drinks available making it super easy to decide or just wanting to know. You order at one of the two registers on the left which then you're given a number (noted on your receipt as well) which then they inform you of how long your order may take...not as long as they say lol so stay close and listen or look for your number on the right side of the counter there is a large digital display of the current order.The vibe at this food court is vibrant and quite busy which is great as it provides the perfect rest stop filled with many choices including a bathroom but welcome L&L Hawaiian BBQ check out the "Shaka" local favorites!Thank you!

We ate here after a long day of travel as I suddenly craved for a hawaiian bbq. This store is located in the food court of Royal Hawaiian center. Service was fast and portion was reasonable for the price. Taste was really good. However, the bbq short ribs was alil hard, it was difficult to cut with their plastic fork. Ramen tasted ok too. The chicken katsu was crispy and flavorful. The katsu sauce balanced the flavor. Nevertheless, I recommend this place for some quick bbq fix.

Pleasantly impressed by this food court fast food chain at the 2nd floor of the Royal Hawaiian Center. I recommend the mixed plate with lightly sweet marinated chicken, kalbi, and steak. Think Korean style sweet flavored meat. You can opt for salad or macaroni salad and comes with rice. The garlic shrimps are good but fried. I was expecting the North Shore sautéed style so this one doesn't have the garlic butter sauce over the rice. It's more of an Asian style garlic pepper style shrimps. Remember to get your parking validation. Fast service and plenty of self service tables.

Not all L&L Barbecue locations are created equal. Some are really good and some are horrible. I'm happy to report that this one in the Royal Hawaiian Shopping Center is a good one.I ordered the chicken katsu plate. The mac salad was creamy. The white rice was fluffy. The chicken katsu had a crispy breading and the inside was juicy and tender. They gave a good amount and certainly didn't skimp.However, that one container of sauce wasn't enough. They wanted $2.50 for a second container. I declined. The sauce was good. It's like a sweet bbq sauce with ketchup. I wasn't about to pay that for a small container tho.

We wanted to try the, fairly new, L & L at the Royal Hawaiian Center Waikiki.Basically, all L & L's are all created equal but newly opened L & L's are on top of their game. First thing we noticed was the difference in price's compared to other L & L's in town. We just wanted to warn folks to be aware that it's higher priced.We decided on the Kailua Pork and Cabbage. The team members seem to work well together and were courteous. The orders were coming out of the kitchen pretty quick for an L & L. We only waited five minutes for our take out order. When we were handed our food we noticed it was heavy for a single plate lunch. We got our grub home and opened the container and it looked / smelled great. The portion size was huge as you can see in the photos.The rice was cooked properly and fresh. I would imagine they go through a lot.The Macaroni Salad was really good. Mac was cooked just right with a very flavorful dressing. We actually like it better than Rainbows.The pork was so moist and tender with just a hint of smokiness. The cabbage really cuts the saltiness of the pork and gives the dish a lighter flavor.So, in closing, we can say it was a really good experience at L & L at Royal Hawaiian Center. We will definitely return for other local dishes they offer.

Yummy Hawaiian Barbecue. It was a big portion one portion fed me and my two daughters. My favorite is the macaroni salad they serve in the side. Delicious!
