| - Golden Hawaiian BBQ specializes in- you guessed it- BBQ. They offer marinated and deep fried meats in chicken, beef, pork, fish and shrimp. Vegetables don't really exist here except for the small slivers of carrot in the macaroni salad and the small chunk of cooked cabbage that comes with the lunch plates.
They offer single meat, combination meat plates, and mini meals. I went with the kalua pork and chicken combination. It came with a large scoop of white rice, macaroni salad, and a small wedge of cabbage. The chicken was thigh meat, marinated and grilled, and was tender with good flavor. I loved the earthy grilled taste of it. The kalua pork was decent. It was a large portion with smoky salty flavor. There was something about the texture that I didn't quite like 100% though, like it was slightly stringy/dry tasting despite being soaked in broth. The rice and macaroni salad were good sides to go with all the flavorful meat.
My order was made in a few short minutes. I washed everything down with a soda from the help-yourself soda fountain. They offer Pepsi products here, and the condiment section is right next to it with tartar sauce, ketchup, hot sauce, etc.
The combination meal was so hefty I could only finish about half of it. I'll have delicious leftovers for dinner tonight!
