★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Elliot Dill · Feb 2026

I've been here many times since it opened. The last two times in the prior 2 months I've noticed a big drop off in quality. I just got the lava chicken and it was drowned in a watery sauce. The chicken was poorly cut and had lots of large fatty pieces that were not edible. The macaroni salad was edible. I ordered the buttered mochi dessert and it was stale, hard, and tasted awful (I've had it many times before). I had one bite and spit it out. I let the nice young girl that took my order know about the mochi and she just said "The mochi is bad? Ok" This was a meal where I find myself wondering if I should try dinner somewhere else to get the taste out of my mouth. I will skip for a while and hope they get back on point. Used to be delicious.

As a long time L&L fan, I hate to give this score. Upon visiting this location, I got the BBQ mix plate and the spam musubi. The only redeeming item was the macaroni salad. The BBQ chicken was flavorless and on the dryer side. The BBQ beef was rubbery. And I think the spam musubi wasn't freshly made. The spam and rice felt dried and didn't see any teriyaki sauce, as if they premade it and reheated it in the microwave(that is the time I experienced that from an L&L). I truly hope they turn it around.

L&L is one of our favorite places to eat. We’ve eaten at other L & L locations frequently and have never had an experience that isn’t 💯. Full of Aloha. Service is warm, loving and kind. Our experience tonight, on just their second day of operation, was no exception. Great food! Awesome service! Food was fresh and tasty! I was a bit hesitant as we had to grab our order To-Go (I rarely do takeout anywhere) and it was still so tasty!! Portion sizes and pricing spot on! Large menu with multiple options to accommodate the pickiest of eaters. Welcome to Boulder, L & L 🤙 We are stoked to have L & L as our new neighbor in Boulder! 100/10 will eat again, frequently…going to need to step up my workout routines to support my plate lunch habit!
