Faka’s Island Grill

We love their crispy spam Musubi and sweet chili garlic shrimp! Usually we'll order ahead and pick up since it can take a while. I haven't loved their fries, but maybe it's just not good for takeout since it's soggy by the time we get home. It's a great spot for when the Hawaiian food craving hits!

I love me some Island food and you can find this place inside of the Enclave food court! I got the chili garlic shrimp mixed plate with braised pork belly! It comes with rice and mac salad! The shrimp was delicious and the pork was really good too but honestly the pork was a lil salty. Mac salad was a pretty standard mayo based mac salad but nothing too crazy. Service was great but wait time for food can range up to 10-15 mins depending on how busy it can be over there. Give this place a try!! Overall meal 8/10

Nook is one of my favorite coffee spots, so I'm at the Enclave quite often where Faka's is.I ordered the following:Chicken katsu: different from Japanese katsu, but still pretty goodspam musubi: very goodFaka's is a fast food storefront and there is plenty of seating indoors and outdoors.I look forward to eating there again.

Got the Katsu Salad with the sesame garlic dressing! All I can say is the katsu chicken was legit!! Moist, tender and flavorful!! I enjoyed every bite of the salad the dressing was amazing. It is a SWEET tasting dressing so if you're trying to avoid sugar you might wanna pass. The only negative thing was that there was a hair in my salad. They don't wear hair nets so...I will be back. My friends enjoyed their shrimp ( they keep the shell on it) and spam musubi. Lots of smacking' and finger lickin' at the communal table.

Kinda ono! This Hawaiian spot is fairly new to the Enclave in Gardena. The hubby and I picked my nephews up from out of town at the airport. So we decided we would eat somewhere local to us in the South Bay. Their first meal as greater LA visitors would be a pork/grilled cheese sandwich and chicken katsu. For beverages, they went to Faka's neighbor just across at Boba Break. Nephews liked what they got. This was hubby's second time here. He had the pork belly plate the first time which was his recommendation. This time he did the katsu as did one of the nephews.My pork belly plate was delish! Texture is a little different than what I am used to which is homemade by a friend who make its crunchy.Even w/the soft, noncrunchy texture, my plate was tasty and generously portioned. Was still tasty as leftovers a day or two later! Mac salad was creamy and delish.It's pay at the counter and they call your name when your order is ready.Faka's is good! Not quite my favorite Hawaiian spot in the South Bay but, I would score them 3.5 and round down to 3. Would be back at some point to try again!

I could eat at Ono Hawaiian everyday and my husband has since tired of Hawaiian food. We went here and he said this place blows Ono Hawaiian out of the park and I have to agree!! The food was delicious and perfectly seasoned, the pickled onions were not just decoration but perfectly pickled! The ube leche flan was my personal fave so much so that I nearly got a second serving!! Highly recommend and the guy working was very friendly too!

I am missing Hawaii and definitely looking forward to my next vacation to the beautiful islands. Thankfully; I don't have to miss Hawaiian food too much because the South Bay definitely has their share of ono Hawaiian food spots. My most recent Hawaiian food spot discovery is Faka's Island Grill at The Enclave.Faka's Island Grill Torrance location is their second location in California; with the first being in Santa Ana at the 4th Street Market. This spot brings all the Hawaiian feels as they offer Mix Plates, Musubi, Sandos and more.In traditional Hawaiian fashion; I chose to get a plate via their Pork Belly Plate ($15.45) with a side of Hawaiian mac salad. I also couldn't resist getting a side of Crunchy Spam Musubi (2 for $7.45).The Pork Belly Plate was overall ono. The pork belly itself was lean; which I liked. I had been hoping for a more crispy pork belly but that was not the case for this plate. It was still good though. I also liked their Hawaiian mac salad. It was creamy and flavorful.The Crunchy Spam Musubi had crunchy panko spam, rice, nori wrap along with sweet and spicy sauce. I thought it could have been more crisp but overall I enjoyed this too.I'm always happy to see a local spot offering island flavors and ono dishes! I'm happy to see Faka's Island Grill now at The Enclave. They're celebrating their soft opening now and looking forward to seeing (and tasting) more dishes in the future here.

I had this spot one time and loved it. The second time was today, what a nightmare! They first said it would be 25 mins, it's been 45 and now they informed me that they ran out of rice for the pork belly meal. Super unprofessional, I'm sure this is a poor management issue, how do you run out of rice at an island grill spot?

Came to the Enclave to cowork and wanted to give this Hawaiian place a try, unfortunately it missed the mark for me. This is a food court in development so some of the stalls are empty, but it was still pretty busy and lots of seating available. I got the spam musubi and loaded fries with chicken katsu. Spam musubi - spam slice too thin- not enough sauce- rice fell apart- seaweed was really soggy even though I picked it up right after they called my name. I thought I had bit into a napkin but it was the seaweedLoaded fries- weird combo with the cheese and furikake- fries were soggy and somehow also stale when we ate them (we literally ate them on site!)- chicken katsu was ok, it's breaded chicken thighThey don't call your name very loudly so I was standing nearby.Overall I would not come back. They look like they just opened so I'm surprised the food was done so poorly.

Garlic shrimp is amazing!!!One of my fav spots in the area. Food is always delicious. My go to is usually the katsu or Maui shrimp. The sweet chili garlic shrimp is meant to be eaten with the shell so I was always hesitant to order it but I finally tried it and I'm so glad I did. The shrimp is fried and dipped in this garlic butter sauce that's so good and eating it with the shell it was so crunchy. The Mac salad they started doing something different to it and it was CRACK. Friendly service like always the guys usually remember my order. They are usually busy but they get the food out so quick.
