Aloha Express Hawaiian BBQ

Fast, fresh and friendly. We wanted fish on a Friday and this place did not disappoint. Reasonable price for the amount of food. We each had enough for leftovers. Rice was perfectly cooked. Fish and shrimp were lightly breaded and simply flavored. Counter service was fast and the table service was just as quick. She explained what each meal was and the side sauces to go with it. They also have a catering menu that is very reasonably priced. Restrooms were incredibly clean and accessible. Table and window bar seating was relatively comfortable. If the weather was nicer we would have sat outside.

My visit to Aloha Express Hawaiian BBQ was awesome! Went to the counter, asked a couple of questions, and decided on the Chicken Katsu...I'm glad I did not get any appetizers. The meal they serve is HUGE and as you can see where I separated the chicken from the rice & pasta...there's a bunch of food. The chicken is moist and tender, with a crispy crunch from the breading. I dipped in the katsu sauce and what a combination...the sweet with the chicken was perfect. I really enjoyed this dish! The fried rice...cooked perfectly and plenty of it. The pasta salad is very interesting, and I knew immediately what made it different and special...the addition of tuna. I could not finish this meal and there was plenty to take home. Notice the cake counter...these are all made locally and look delicio

PLEASE READ!!! • The food is absolutely amazing. • The staff, incredibly friendly and inviting. • The atmosphere of this location is happy and welcoming. From the decor, to the beautiful Hawaiian music quietly being played in the background. Occasionally they have people who come and play live music. Unfortunately I've missed it while placing take out orders, but hope to see it soon. Every visit to this location, the feeling I get when I walk through the door is like I'm being welcomed by friends. My favorite dish is the Hawaiian chicken. If you are unsure what to get, I highly recommend the mixed barbecue plate. Don't forget to try the ube cookies, they're delicious! * If you have read this far, I really appreciate it. Each location I review, I visit them at least three times depen

Finding authentic Hawaiian BBQ outside of Hawaii can be a quest, especially in Tennessee, where the genuine flavors and positive beach vibes often get lost in translation. However, this spot defies the odds, delivering an exceptional experience that starts with its authenticity and fresh products.

The house-made sauces elevate the experience further, with their specialty sauce being a standout that perfectly complements the dishes. What truly sets this place apart is the atmosphere. The

OMG... how did I stumble upon the old owners of another restaurant I grew to love!!! They now own this fabulous spot, which is the ONLY Hawaiian BBQ in middle TN. If you haven't tried it, get over here.....you won't be disappointed. Finger licking good, with great portions. Enough for leftovers to enjoy later!!! Yesterday I had their short rib plate that includes white rice (fried for a small upcharge), cabbage + broccoli, and macaroni salad, served with a side of yum yum and teriyaki. Run on over here.....come check them out. Another location coming soon I hear! The staff is supper friendly, the cooks throw down, and the establishment is great for dine in or carry out.
