I dont LOL at the portions from L & L Im not a frequent visitor of L & L Hawaiian Barbecue. Last time I ordered a plate there, probably a couple years ago. Unbeknownst to me, family thought to pick up dinner here and I was pleasantly surprised. Chicken katsu- One of the, if the most, popular dish, the chicken katsu was just as I remembered. Thin cuts of chicken fried with a crispy, crunchy coating. I eat a similar plate from Yasai, and L & L has the edge on the quantity of chicken. Of course, Yasais plate comes with spring salad, sumi salad, a veggie skewer & rice. However, L & L piles on the starches with 2 scoops of rice & a scoop of macaroni salad. I tried the katsu with guacamole at home, at it was a winner! BBQ chicken- Did I mention these are eaters size portions? Me, Rodney, eat lots. Me, Rodney, hungry for more. Me, Rodney, asks "Are you gonna finish that?" Also with 2 scoops of rice & a scoop of mac salad, the chicken was tender, basted with a flavorful sauce. Hearty & filling, the BBQ chicken plate wont let you go hungry. Although this occasion was take out, I have dined at this location before. I remember the inside having an unorthodox layout, with the registers in the middle of the building, as opposed to near the entrance. Service has been okay, with the wait time being bearable to "Cmon, already. Wheres my order?" A few tables to dine inside and outside, I wouldnt come here with a large group. Parking is in a private lot at the Cerritos Promenade. Spaces fill up fast during peak times, so you may have to park by Leelin & Island Pacific. For some stick to your ribs, I need a nap food, L & L Hawaiian Barbecue does the trick. I dont have the urge to stop by all the time, which is probably good for my weight, but I do enjoy the food here. The tastes good, the location is local & the prices are comparable to other eateries. So, yeah, Ill be back. Just, maybe a long time from now. Recommend! NOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM

My only gripe with this location is the setup of the restaurant. They made it so their kitchen and counter is in the middle of the space, so its open in the front by the door, and then narrow in the "ordering area." So, navigating from the front to the back of the restaurant can be a little annoying when having to move around a line of people waiting to order food. I always love getting the BBQ combo of short ribs, beef, and chicken. Always marinated well, and just the right tender. It can be a little frustrating at times, because sometimes the meat they serve up is very fatty, so the actual amount of meet you get on the short ribs or beef, can be less than what you actually see. I would definitely come back here.

Cashier asked if I wanted onions to be added to my bowl meal, I said yes. In fact - no onions. Waited for my order 15 mins. Interior and all chairs are pretty dirty (black dirt on chairs doesnt add appetite). My first and last time here.

My favorite plate lunch, L&Ls mix bbq plate , beef teriyaki, kalbi, bbq chicken, scoop rice and hawaiian style mac salad over chopped cabage is full of flavors.

Best place for local Hawaiian BBQ. They have also gotten so much faster at getting the food ready ! BBQ chicken is the best!

First time here and I ordered the eggs and spam. The eggs had black bits from a dirty grill, completely in appetizing.

Takes about 15 minutes to get your order. The food is fulfilling but the service is not so great.
