Love this place! The food is on point and huge portions. I have also ordered trays of food for various family gatherings and also yummy. The staff if always friendly and helpful. The restaurant is very casual with mostly carry out orders. The chicken, short ribs, and Mac salad.
Great place in a small plaza. Food was delicious and tasty! Prices were reasonable. Cashier was nice.
Hawaiian Drive Thru is hands down my favorite Hawaiian place for authenticity and taste. Don't let the name fool you--there's no actual drive-thru, but trust me, you won't mind once you taste their food! The portions here are incredibly generous, and the service is always speedy. I usually call in my order, and it's ready by the time I get there, or I dine in and wait about 15-20 minutes. My go-to is the 2 meat combo plate with BBQ chicken and chicken katsu sauce. I sub out the rice for fries and always get an extra scoop of their delicious macaroni salad. Their Spam musubis are perfect for a quick, on-the-go meal. My daughter loves them, and they're her favorite snack and meal because of how filling they are. If you're looking for a place that combines great taste, generous portions, and fast service, Hawaiian Drive Thru is the place to go!
Great place for Hawaiian plate lunch! Stopped in with my friend the other week and I got the Short Rib Plate, it came with two slabs of meat, two small scoops of rice and mac salad. Everything tasted good. I think it's better quality than L&L for sure. They also offer smoothies and Hawaiian shave ice on their menu, it's looked delicious but I didn't have any room! I wish I tried their Lava Flow haha I now have regrets not getting one!
Service was quick and kind! Always a great sign for me, we came for a quick dinner after work. The prices kinda scared me but it's within the expected rate for san jose. Nonetheless the portions were very hefty and the to go box was PACKED. Everything tasted good, the bbq ribs could use more marinade for my taste but my boyfriend enjoyed it. It wasn't tough at all and the katsu was sooo crispy. Their menu also had korean food options. I got a spam musubi, I wish they had put more sauce on that as well. But it was still a solid musubi. The hot dog looking door handle was very cute and silly.
ALOHA! For the Silver Creek/Evergreen area, this place breaks the mouth for Hawai'i food. Been to the islands a couple times and I say this is true to the island flavours. Also, it's mad value fin terms of food for the price you pay. It does take 10-15 minutes for your food to be made fresh to order, but you can call ahead or doordash an order for pick up. Parking wise, it's a little tight, crowded, and always stow away your stuff in your car. Trust me brah, the food is ono here.
This is our go-to spot for Hawaiian food. Parking here could be a pain depending on the hour you go, The staff is really friendly and fast. Got the protein plate with less carbs. This is plenty of food and enough to feed 2 people. They also have different types of masubi. This is a great, affordable spot to get a quick meal if you're in the area
Two dishes I absolutely love from here! That's their KRIPSY KATSU CHICKEN & their yummy teriyaki chicken! The katsu chicken comes with an amazing sauce on the side to dip your chicken in. It's so good I highly recommend. The crisp on the chicken is 10/10! These dishes come with a side of steamed rice & Mac salad which is pheeeeewwww 10/10 my favorite side! It compliments their proteins very nicely! Service is good. It's pretty quick and straightforward. The location has indoor and outdoor seating. They will normally be playing some sort of either sport or something on their TV. So far I only have had amazing experiences with this location. I personally think it's the best Hawaiian food in the Bay Area.
Spur of the moment lunch choice on a Saturday at noon. Shared Chicken Katsu platter, Korean Shortribs platter, cheeseburger combo, and fried chicken wings. We dined in, and it took maybe 15 minutes before our food was ready. No issue. Many people take their food to go, and there were a few people waiting for their placed orders when we walked in. The food was hot and plentiful, and yummy! Of course, we brought home leftovers! I need to eat here more often!!!
