“Great little independent restaurant. The world needs more unique places like this. If only people could tear themselves away from McDonald's and other gross corporate dumps and try something new once in a while.The service was very good. Yeah, they were in the back working when I came in, but they came out right away, so I can't see why anyone would feel the need to complain about that.They were out of a couple menu items this last visit, like their açaí, but it's all good because they have a varied menu and good prices. The interior is decorated with custom art pieces. Just go, ok?Vegetarian options: Açaí and all that implies... several rolls are meatless (avocado, daikon, and so on).Dietary restrictions: Easy for a gluten free person to eat here.Parking: Tons of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicapped parking very nearby. A wheelchair could easily roll in. Flat floor layout; no steps or stairs. Spacious, private bathroom.“
“Wife and I were ecstatic upon hearing that Ululani opened shop close to home. We experienced it first in Maui. Other shaved ice shops in Maui and Waikiki couldn't hold a candle to Ululani. Fluffy ice and their syrups taste organic and not too sweet. Our four year-old approved on his first trip to the Hollywood location. This is the best Hawaiian shaved ice by a Maui mile. Hope they stick around long term.“
“Interior is small but parking is decent, and I think the food is hit or miss depending on what you order. But for the most part the fried chicken katsu is a good option; the bone in fried chicken that others seem to like was a little dry for me. There is a catering menu and seemingly they are a good option for gatherings. The owners work here and are very sweet Asian couple. They will always smile and engage in conversation with you. Top Restaurant has been in business for a long time so they are doing lots of things right!“
“Stopped at the Burbank location during the wine walk in November and it was amazing and just what I needed. The fish was fresh and I got the burrito and usually I get the bowl but I wanted to eat and walk and it worked out great and tasted fresh and “
“I usually go for the short ribs (which are phenomenal), but I thought I’d try the grilled garlic shrimp for a slightly healthier option. Unfortunately, like the other review said, it’s pretty nasty. They should call it “slightly battered jarred garlic shrimp” instead. The mac salad is delicious though.“
“I was in the area and looked up Poke. Poke LouLu came up. The reviews were good so I decide to try. I agree this Poke Bowl was tasty. I too wanted more after I finished. This place has been open for 4 months. I'll come back when I'm in Burbank again inside is clean and service was pleasant and informative. Thanks for dinner“
“I love poke bowl as it is so fresh and healthy for lunch/dinner. I like the premium ingredients you can find here with all options customized to your choice.I put:1. Spicy tuna2. Salmon3. Scallop4. Seaweed5. Crab meat6. Crunchy garlicAnd so many more delicious ingredients! The big bowl is good to share with 2 people.“
“Our server was top notch, very aware of our table....a joy to have as wait staff! Food was incredible, prep was top notch, portion sizes were varied. General atmosphere was tiki lounge lite, a fun, Cali casual/island theme very comfy. Bartender knew her way around mixology....no complaints!“

“I decided to try this since my husband was having lunch in his hospital room and this was right across the street in the same building my hotel is in. The poke was fresh and delicious. The service was quick and friendly. The place was also clean which is very important to me.“
“I had the breakfast plate with fried chicken. The breakfast plate comes with 2 eggs and choice of sauce (either sweet sauce or teriyaki sauce). There's a lot of food with just this dish. The chicken is covered in batter and you can choose how you want your eggs cooked. The chicken was good and the entire dish was decent. When you park and you're entering the restaurant there's a sign that says 'macadamia pancakes' so I definitely added the short stack (2 pancakes) to my meal. I had a few bites of the pancakes so I can enjoy the fluffiness and taste of the dish. The pancakes were huge and topped with cream and macadamia crumbles. Really tasty. Of course, I wasn't going to finish this during my visit and I took it home. After eating the chicken the following day I decided it was very oily because of the batter and the way it was cooked. The pancakes were still okay. I'm a little saddened because I really thought I would be wow'd by this place, but I wasn't. It wasn't bad or anything I just higher hopes. I would still come back and try the other items on the menu.“
“I came through because I have walked through this little alley with friends and always see this tiny little cat-logo sushi shop. I came by on a whim expecting some fast foody simple rolls which would have been fine. But I was surprised when the salmon roll came out, and it was immediately obvious the fish was really nice quality and the roll looked as good as some of my favorite sushi restaurants. Very impressed!“
“Aloha Catering has an amazingly epic ambiance with cool decor and festive for holidays. The patio is very spacious and hands down best Hawaiian local joints in LA. Most Hawaiian restaurants are in Soith Bay OC San Diego and Bay Area. Fortunately we are blessed on Los Angeles to have a venue such as this.“
“I has the salmon truffle bowl and everything that came with it was fresh and delicious! They were even nice enough to give me a small sample of the truffle salmon to try before I ordered to make sure I liked it! Service was great and food was amazing...I will be going back to try the Ramen!“
“Super solid poke spot - the fish is fresh and they give you a HUGE portion for the price. They charge extra for certain random toppings which I didn’t love, but overall the value for the price was very high. The staff was slow and seemed overwhelmed, but that’s my only complaint.“
“This place is absolutely the best. We now have two Hawaiian bbq restaurants in the same small area. This one has the hometown feel. It's the one that is family owned and worked! They don't have fancy leis but they have a huge menu, and really good food! If you want the hometown feel.. and yummy delicious food.. come try the best Hawaiian bbq in South Pasadena!“
“Patio Seating/ Dog Friendly!I’ve been coming to this spot for over a decade! They were around even before the movie! =) Fast forward present day- I wanted my niece to try Hawaiian BBQ. She’s been to Hawaii but now that she is older and her palate has changed, I knew this was the spot to take her for our monthly get together!Hawaiian BBQ always has a place in my heart! Growing up in Hawaii the BBQ was a staple, so simple; BBQ, rice, mac salad and a can of Hawaiian Sun!Got the katsu, short rib, BBQ and seafood combos! Of course, she wanted musubi so we got that and it came with 2 for the order, with the drink total came to $95! But dang, the rice to meat ratio was sad ?? rice is cheap… why not load up? Maybe my expectations are too high? LOL but its rice….cant shake the portion out of my head also, the mac salad can use a upgrade– missing star.Parking: Parking behind the building, in the front and structures all around. For guaranteed parking the mall is your best option!“
“Generous portions, tasty food, awesome topping selection, great price, and very attentive to our daughter’s allergies! We will definitely be back.Vegetarian options: Tofu option for protein, lots of veggie toppings.Dietary restrictions: Our daughter has allergies to dairy, nuts and eggs. They made sure to note it on her order and took care not to cross contaminate.Kid-friendliness: Fun atmosphere, attentive to our daughter’s allergies and she really enjoyed filling out her order slip and picking out all of her own toppings.“
“This place is awesome! We got the Poke Nachos, Kailua pork tacos and Kailua pork "sammich" and everything was really good. Even the Musabi was probably the best I've had. The place has a cool vibe, and the service was friendly and fast. Definitely check this place out sometime if you're anywhere near the area. Thanks for the recommendation Georgia! We'll be back.“
“I think that categorically this is "inauthentic" poke but good lord is it amazing anyways. Extremely filling, very tasty, and I love how everything besides protein is complimentary. A bit expensive for my taste, but I do come from a place with a lower cost of living. The masago is incredible.“
“One of the best poke spots to come to if you're in the area!! They have a variety of sauces that you could combine to make your own special sauce, i really recommend the sesame shoyu and miso honey for that sweet and savory taste!! Their service is fast and their employees are friendly and very accommodating, the atmosphere in here is calm and welcoming and is perfect for getting work done.“
“Ok so far so good good service it's 12:41am and they still cooking I like that about this place ordered a nice meal chicken combo Hawaiian BBQ there making it fresh can't wait to taste my food the atmosphere is nice and clean so that's a plus so far so good I don't understand why some people complain and say that it's bad my experience is so far a good one just waiting on the food to see if it's good or nasty it smells delicious can't wait to taste the food ....................... (A few minutes later) now it's 12:58am tasted the food it's delicious I do recommended“
“Love this Chinese fast food joint, their fried rice, chow mien, orange chicken, and spicy fish always hits the spot! I use to eat this everyday but obviously I was slowly killing myself, great food tho!! The donut shop across is delicious too!Parking: Parking is shared by the plaza, but security there is nice enough to help/guide you safely.“
“Ono opened relatively recently in South Pasadena, conveniently off the 110 fwy. It is a chain that specializes in fast casual Hawaiian food like chicken katsu and spam musubi. It is nice having a Hawaiian restaurant near the Pasadena area, though I wish they had my favorite Hawaiian food loco moco. I'm still trying to figure out what the island white fish is (tilapia, rockfish, etc), so if anyone knows feel free to lmk!“
“Hands down, the best Poke place I have eaten at. I travel for work and I love Poke and I try to visit local Poke restaurants where I'm visiting. The large selection of seafood and toppings makes for a great meal. I love the spicy tuna, the shrimp and scallops. I usually get two scoops of crab meat and add avocado, edamame, cilantro and spicy Poke sauce. I never get tired of eating it. Co-workers say it is the best Poke restaurant they have ever eaten at. They have pretty loyal clientele. You can order online, although I have never done that, and pick up your order. There isn't a lot of seating and it's a large long table in the center and a section against the wall where you can sit and eat. Seating is usually available and most people I noticed take out their order. The parking lot is small and you can usually find parking on the street if necessary. I totally recommend this place. The owner is nice, the management is nice, the step is incredibly friendly and it's just a pleasure eating really good healthy food at this location.“
“The team of this Rosemead Ono Hawaiian BBQ is a clean, safe and outstanding atmosphere, which allows customers sit and eat like you’re home.As you enter, you and your family are greeted with a smile…The crew and the manager team members are energetic, and full of life, and happy to serve you.Antonia who’s a member of upper management is a great person, who will ALWAYS go out of her way, who will go above and beyond!!!“
“Small spot that you'd pass everyday without knowing it's there. Decided to try it for lunch one day after walking by and I'm very thankful that I did. Upon entry you are greeted by a clean space with few tables and nice individuals at the front. There are lots of toppings to choose from and a great selection of different fish. After creating my bowl with the help of the worker, I took it to go to eat back at the office. The fish quality is one of the freshest I've had in the area and the pricing is very comparable to others you find within Glendale. Won't bat an eye next time I am in the mood for a good poke bowl!“
“Generous Servings, High quality seafood, and fresh vegetables!! Better than every other poke bar for 20 miles. Healthy Ponzu sauce! No excess sugar!(The bowl sizes have gotten a lil bit smaller recently)Vegetarian options: Tofu proteinDietary restrictions: Easy Meal for Keto or Pescatarian! Base choice of brown rice, white rice, or full salad.Parking: Only 2 parking spots in lot, plenty of steet parking just off Colorado Blvd.Wheelchair accessibility: One low step up, but there is a handicap parking“
“Poke Me is a gem! Every bowl is bursting with freshness, and the flavors are unmatched. The staff is friendly, making each visit feel personal and warm. Portions are generous, leaving you satisfied every time. It's not just about eating here; it's the whole experience that keeps me coming back. If you haven't been to Poke Me yet, you're missing out. Truly a top spot for poke lovers!“
“ALL ABOUT POKE A poke chain, I will be back to get more from!:) Feels like FAST FOOD minus the GUILT AND FRIED STUFF, with a lot more color and flavor :) Delicious I got the SPICY TUNA, SALMON ALBACORE, and soba noodles with salad. YUZU PONZU SAUCE + Sweet CHILI sauce they said you can mix up to 3 sauces free. *Honestly I wish I added a creamy sauce ! Definitely going with spicy mayo next time I pretty much got all the veggies and fruit toppings that were free :) fruit being tangerine and pineapple Overall I liked the portion and taste :) 7.5/10 for me Follow me for more food trips "LIVING WITH LUCI"“
