    How did I not get the MEMO? This Local Girl only found this place out recently and it's "Thee Spot" in the area! Don't let the name fool you! This is my second time ordering the Ginger Chicken Plate within the past week. Comes with 2 scoops rice and a scoop of mac salad but we subbed out the mac for extra rice, "YES!" & choke ginger, "Yes you heard me!". Let me tell you, they are very generous. I absolutely love the balance of ginger to chicken ratio in every bite! And let's not forget the Rice! The portion is satisfyingly huge. And the 'Regular' is worth the amount you're paying for. Most importantly the flavor is Onolicious! Another go to we couldn't resist at a second round within the same week is the Hamburger Steak Plate with teri sauce! It also comes with a great portion of 2 scoops rice and 1 scoop mac with 3 delicious homemade hamburger patties with a generous amount of teri sauce that has kikoman taste which is bomb. Our son ate half the plate faster than usual, and that tells us how good it really is! Anytime we're near the Salt Lake area, trust me you'll find us back here again! The price is good and the food is better!

    Atmosphere was fine, few booths, clean, great friendly staff. I got the special : Chicken Catsu and Ribs. The chicken was so good! The ribs were mediocre and wouldn't get again, but the BBQ sauce on them was very good. Got 2 pieces of Fried Shrimp (menu doesn't show as side order, but just ask) and it was also very good! Mac salad was good but it is everywhere here on Oahu, and comes with plenty of white or brown rice (just tell them which). Definitely recommend. Please"LIKE" my review if you found it helpful.

    You know, this place is pretty good. I got the mini lemon chicken and it was a great amount of food for the price. Very competitive with larger local food chains. The taste was good all around. Good mac salad when I usually don’t really go for mac salad, and the lemon chicken was pretty good too. The chicken itself had a great tasting breading. I felt the lemon sauce was too sour though. I also got a malt and while expensive for the size, it was still pretty tasty.

    I had the garlic chicken plate for $12.50 (only comes in regular size) it was good and I think you get what you pay for however I was kind of bummed because I wanted a malt shake (something they’re known for) but I just couldn’t bring myself to pay $7-8 for it. They have great plate lunch options but I would t go out of my way to come back.

    Great short rib and bbq chicken. Laulau was also really good. Don't miss out on their chocolate malts!

    Good place to buy some local food. Prices are decent. Had to stop by again after the covid re-open. Food still very good.

  • 4/5 Allison R. 4 years ago on Google
    Good food and the portion sizes are huge. Prices are great, especially considering how much food you get. The workers are pretty friendly and offer quick service.

  • 2/5 Alexander Van M. 1 year ago on Google
    Cheap, but not worth the price. The chicken and white rice were the only halfway decent things I had. The shrimp had no seasoning whatsoever. The macaroni salad was sub par. The fries didn't have a grain of salt on them and were extremely inconsistent in texture. Some fries were unusually hard, and others shattered like plaster when bitten. I have only had one experience with this place, but I feel these other reviews must be manufactured based on the lack of care that was put into my meal. Moreover, the chicken and shrimp that I ordered was the staff's recommendation, so I had an expectation that it would be somewhat good. I was, however, sorely disappointed.

    I had plans to vacation in Oahu and so a local friend of mine had given me a list of places she likes to eat at, including Stadium Giant Malts & BBQ. She mentioned that this place made some of the best wings. My husband and son are BIG TIME wing lovers, so we had to go. She was definitely right. The wings were so good. Even my daughter and I who are NOT big time wing lovers couldn't have enough. The seasoning was perfect! We also ordered the chicken katsu and mixed meat plates, which were ALL very delicious. The mac salad was very simple, which we personally appreciated. I assumed the chocolate malt was going to taste like a Wendy's frosty, but it was so much better. Tasted like a blended fudgesicle. So much more refreshing... especially in the Hawaiian heat. The only downside is that there was no seating inside due to covid, but found some tables in front of the nearby Jamba Juice. If you have plans to go to the Aloha Stadium, check it out! Right next to it!

    Didn’t love the taste of the food. Nice staff with HUGE portions. Also no indoor seating which was really inconvenient.

  • 4/5 johnathan r. 1 year ago on Google
    Okay... Little rundown joint, kind of sketch looking. Wanted BBQ and Google reviews said the place was good. This is NOT a Texas BBQ kind of joint. This has to be an island thing with Asian flare / influences. Ordered Baby Back Ribs plate and there was no indication these things had ever been on / near a BBQ. More likely steamed or slow cooker. And they had a brown gravy like sauce over them - NOT a traditional ketchup/ vinegar based BBQ sauce. Served with rice and macaroni salad. Couldn't eat in the place so ate in our car. So? Good or what? Verdict - not bad... I wasn't thinking I would like them, but they weren't bad. Gravy / sauce had a good taste and meat fell of the bone and was tasty. Not my favorite BBQ experience, but not terrible either. Got a lot of food for the money. Wife had a cheese burger - wasn't too impressed. Time to get meal was slow and her food sat waiting for mine too come up. Out the door with two medium pops was $30. Probably wouldn't go back on purpose, but if I were in the area might try it again. I like dives and I like surprisingly good meals.

  • 4/5 Kevin K. 1 year ago on Google
    The prices were great and they give large portions. This was our first meal after 10 hours of flying so we were really hungry. Not sure it quite lives up to what we hoped for, but it was still very good.

    Good reliable little bbq joint. Everything's been good so far. Hibachi chicken was great and huge portion. Curry and lau lau were good as well.

    Amazingly delicious food! Lost a star because of no dine in. Definitely good price for what you get. 1/8/21

    Great pulled pork sandwich and plate lunch. Healthy portions and low prices.

  • 2/5 Bryan D. 4 years ago on Google
    Decent portions and prices, but ultimately we felt the food and flavors fell short of what others experienced. I had the beef curry and while the meat was nice and tender, it was lacking in flavor. The combos come with "salad" which in this case was a few pieces of lettuce. The mac salad was mostly mayonnaise and the pork was one note - salt. Ultimately there are better BBQ places to get lunch.

  • 4/5 Vanessa J. 2 years ago on Google
    The food here is so so, but the chocolate malts are AWESOME! One of my favorite treats on a hot day

  • 4/5 Daniel N. 8 months ago on Google
    The fried chicken wings are really good and the price was even better especially considering how big the portions are but the shakes are so expensive compared to everything else. Seems like a solid choice for lunch or dinner if you’re in the area but wouldn’t go out of my way to go here.
