Generous portions of Hawaiian & Filipino eats, including poke & kalua pig
























"After closing for the storm, Grind Wit Tryz, an Alberta Hawaiian restaurant, reopened on Wednesday only to see sales down 95 percent, with mostly neighborhood customers coming in." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden

"Serving from noon until supplies last at 2017 NE Alberta Street, I note that GrindWitTryz is offering kalua turkey with stuffing, rice, and other sides and treats for free; donations can be sent to Venmo @grindwittryz808." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden

"This Alberta Hawaiian spot is known for its massive servings of kalua pig and ono chicken, served with rice and mac salad in a to-go box straining to stay closed. For a party, it’s best to grab an order of poke nachos on wonton chips, plus dishes like meat jun and garlic shrimp. Specials here are usually stellar, be it a corned beef loco moco or lechon kawali. Find it on delivery apps or for takeout." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden

"This food cart-turned-Alberta destination serves generous portions of Hawaiian classics as well as creative interpretations of quintessential dishes — like “Hawaiian nachos,” wonton chips topped with poke and kalua pig. Plus, the restaurant also offers the occasional Filipino special, such as a recurring halo-halo, which translates to “mix-mix” and describes the frozen dessert’s parfait-like layers. Menu specials are posted on Instagram, so keep an eye out over there; otherwise, a combo plate of ono chicken and garlic shrimp is sure to please." - Jenni Moore

"One of the participating restaurants, Grind Wit Tryz offered between $100 and $1,000 in matched funds to support donations to the northwestern branch of the National Network of Abortion Funds as part of the Instagram-matching campaign that Jojo organized." - Alex Frane
