“Amazing food, excellent service, and friendly staff. The soup dumplings here are one of my favorite foods in the valley. We keep coming back for the soup dumplings and the pineapple chicken, but the cumin chicken, lamb skewers, and everything else we’ve had are all top notch. Even when they are busy, they go above and beyond to make you feel taken care of and well fed.“

“The Maui Hawaiian grill has some really good food. Their barbecue plate was awesome and they had some delicious Kahlua port. This place is way better than Ono's. Not to mention their portions were huge. And their Hawaiian Mac salad. It's the real deal. So if you're missing the islands and you want to taste come on down you don't want to miss it.“

“Seriously, now I need a Google rating option to give a 7 star review. Not kidding. How has this place been here for 6 years, owned by neighbors and I didn't know about it? This trip was life changing, no joke, here's why.The owners, Jacque and Demetrious ("D") are about the nicest, most warm, welcoming people you could meet. Their genuine passion for their restaurant shows in the extraordinary cleanliness of the entire place, the comfortable, chill, modern, light, homey atmosphere they created, the absolutely shocking, mind bending, high quality, taste, flavor, and love in every bite of their amazing food. For. Real. Read on!We tried some of everything on the menu, seriously, this review covers it all! Smoked chicken was moist, white meat, steaming, soft, flavorful, smoked perfectly and was awesome. Now, dip it in the Alabama White sauce, and it's over the top! Alabama White sauce you say? Ya, never heard of it either. It's insanely good, incredible. That's just one of the 8 home made sauces they offer! Ya, 8! Now I've been to dozens, maybe hundreds of bbq restaurants. Nearly all have a good sauce, or two, maybe even three, but that's rare. They are usually a spicier version of the first or an attempt at a different regional style. I swear, every single sauce here is fantastic, homemade, delicious, totally unique from the rest (how is that possible??) and amazing on virtually everything. A palette of sauce flavors I've never experienced. Could not be more sauce-impressed.Okay, more food. The pork belly and rib tips are insane! They glisten in the meaty, sweet, light sauce but the smoky flavor of the meet and fat steal the show in the best way. They are the best I've ever had anywhere. The brisket, oh man, the brisket! Bark? Who needs it when this brisket is sooo moist, tender, soft, smoky, absolutely perfect! Smoked in mesquite to absolute perfection and hand carved for each order. It's H.E.A.V.E.N! The pulled pork is ridiculously great! I've never had it like this. And I make it, in my own smoker, for 40, 50, 70 people at a time. The pulled pork here is better! It has light Caribbean jerk seasoning and with the smokiness of the meat and it being the juiciest I've ever had, it's the absolute best. I feel like I've been reborn and tasting all this bbq for the first time, it's ALL soo good!Sides. The Mac N Cheese, each twist is chewy, cheesy, gooey and insanely delicious, I liked the bowl! The beans, oh man, the beans! Check out all the pics I posted. See the glossy, bourbon color on those beans! They are gently smokey, meaty, fantastic. The sweet potato fries, mmmmm, lightly crispy, warm, soft on the inside, fried to perfection and delicious in every sauce, or by themself!!Ok, wing time. I'm ruined. I've had the same favorite wings for 15 years. All that changed today. Got the Arizona Spicy wings and the Tiger Stripe wings. Insane! Nuts! Both of them! Know why? Because the wings themselves are cooked 3 different ways before being sauced! Smoked, fried, finished on the grill! What??? Big, meaty, juicy, flavorful, crispy, saucy, oh man! Best. Wings. Ever!This is the best bbq in Arizona, seriously. I've had them all, I've done competition bbq, every dish here is mind blowing! I don't know how, but it's true. And no, I wasn't drinking! :-)How is it possible that every dish here, and no joke, we tried them all, are awesome?!?!?! How is it possible the owners are so friendly, kind, fun and cool? How is this place so comfortable with cool events like whiskey and cigar nights, Mexi-Que nights, jazz & R&B music nights,.... it's been here 6 years and I'm just hearing of it?I'm just glad I haven't spent another day not knowing of Word of Mouth Grill. My plan is to go often! I honestly can't recommend this place highly enough!Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly with atmosphere, food and drinks.“

“OMG, the food I ordered from Nedus Kitchen was huge, 100%delicious one of the best Nigerian meals I've had outside Nigeria. The portion size reminded me of Jevnik, a plate can feed 2 persons. The food was great, very spicy too. This is a great place to order and have a taste of Nigeria. Anytime I'm back in Arizona I will be there to order.“

“I'd like to start by saying Texas Roadhouse has been a favorite of mine for years. I've been a happy customer for years! Food has always been great as well as the hospitality. Today was a game changing experience. I've never been so mad about poor service and poorly cooked food. It would have been different had I been treated like a customer and not a number. To top ot off, they didnt offer any kind of compensation for the poor service or the poorly cooked meal. I will still continue to go to Texas Roadhouse but not on Warner.“

“Brian is an absolute badass!! His food is phenomenal, and he is very professional. He gave an explanation and speech that made the experience very special for our bachelorette party. I cannot reccomend him highly enough for a truly authentic and delicious experience. He even cleaned after! I wish I could re-live it!“

“This is one of the roomier KBBQ places meaning there is actually some elbow room at the tables and in the walkways. The meat selections are great, however most orders come for two even if you’re a table of 4+ so make sure to double up on some orders if you want enough for everyone. We laughed at making the mistake of ordering shrimp only to have 2 come out on a plate. The sides are so-so and also small portioned so order up on those. Their kimchi is decent and the kimchi stew was great! I forgot which type of pork (marinated)I ordered at the end but it was one of our faves. Also the little cat bot that brings you plates is cute and fun! Oh and the Tteokbokki wasn’t what I expected - it was slightly crispy with a different style sauce than the normal soft rice cake in the spicy sauce but still a fun side. Also, my only wish is that they add the fish cake side dish like other KBBQ. I’m a junkie for the stuff and it wasn’t within their offerings.“

“I am originally from Hawaii and thought that the price was worth the amount of food served. The food was quite good, but it was missing the subtle flavors that would have made it excellent. It likely may not matter to those who did not grow up with these dishes. I, however, will still return regularly, as it is close enough for my taste, for my fix of Hawaiian dishes ("local food" as Hawaiians call it).“
