Hukilau

The BEST Hawaiian food EVER. So authentic and fresh tasting. Highly recommend

We love coming to Hukilau. I tried something new for dinner - spicy chicken katsu and fried oysters w fried rice. Spicy sauce was basically sriracha. I would prefer the plain ole katsu sauce for next time. Fried rice was delicious.

Fantastic food, fantastic service, and an atmosphere that left a little to be desired. The building was easily missable, and the dimly entryway made it seem like it was closed. However, the food and service more than made up for an underwhelming dining area. The waiter was very knowledgeable and gave his own personal recommendations as well as popular choices for things to try - so that we would get the most bang for our buck. We all shared the Hukilau Pupu Platter, and we chose the popcorn chicken, fried shrimp, and Portuguese sausage. We also added some Spam Musubi. By far, the popcorn chicken was the best appetizer that we tried! For my entree, I chose the (grilled) Mahi Mahi plate, and it was delicious! I have also added pictures of what my family ordered: the combo plate with chicken and teriyaki beef, the Hukilau Fried Rice, the Loco Moco, and the Poke Bowl with Ahi Tuna. I highly recommend checking this place out!

Very good food...loved their Fried Saimin( noodles) good stuff!..🌺😎🤙Aloha

I love Hawaiian food and I have been craving it lately. My cousins @jedijoey10 @hello_xtine invited their friend @alesandnails and Mr to enjoy a meal at @hukilau_sanjose. We got the Kalua Pork Cheese Fries to share, it was so yummy! The pork was seasoned perfectly and the fries were extra crispy. I want to say the twice fried it. We all got our own entrée, Hukilau Poke Dinner, Loco Moco with beef patties, Aloha Chicken Adobo, and Spicy Fish Tacos. The food portions were huge and generous! Every thing was tasty and authentic. They also has a Hawaiian Tiki Bar special on drinks for Happy Hour for 50% off. The drinks were strong and sweet, which were really good. Definitely coming back here for more food. 📍Hukilau on Jackson St. in Japantown of San Jose, CA. 🌺🎴 @hukilau_sanjose

Tasty food, relaxed atmosphere. Would come again! Aloha chicken adobo was a lot “lighter” in flavor profile compared to Filipino adobo. Ginger fried chicken not a favor I would have thought of but very good!

Oh man rum rum and more rum plus the drinks menu is amazing Try skeleton key

Authentic Hawaiian comfort food. The luau plate has a great combination of classic Hawaiian barbecue dishes. Portions are pretty big so come hungry or prepare to take home some leftovers.
