What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Uahi Island Grill is praised for its delicious Hawaiian comfort food with a trendy twist, fresh flavors, and friendly service. Many rave about the poke, Kalua pork, and unique cocktails. While most experiences are overwhelmingly positive, some reviews mention inconsistencies in sauce flavor or a slight saltiness in certain pork dishes.
"Absolutely amazing establishment! Initially went because it was on the Triple D TV show, but now I'll continue going because of the food. Super friendly Staff and Amazing Food! Everything was perfect and flavorful."

"One of our favorite restaurants we visited on our trip to Oahu! The kalua pork was a favorite between me and my boyfriend—we found the pork to be tender and juicy while not overly oily. We also loved that the kale had a bit of a crisp to it.
The poke was alright, the fish was fresh but the sweet and spicy sauce was a bit too sweet and thick for my liking.
Don’t miss the ube colada either, it was delicious!! We dream of this place constantly now."

"Bucha Highland Grill: A Casual Dining Experience
Bucha Highland Grill offers a straightforward dining experience that hits some marks while falling short on others. The happy hour specials were disappointing, with minimal discounts that didn't excite.
The menu shows promise, particularly with the teriyaki cheeseburger - a satisfying option that rates a solid 7.5/10. It's filling and tasty, if not extraordinary. The orange duck confit proved to be another highlight, earning a respectable 7-8/10 rating.
Service stands out as a strong point. The staff is friendly and attentive, working in a notably clean and comfortable environment. The restaurant seems well-suited for casual dining and appears accommodating for larger groups.
While not a culinary destination, Bucha Highland Grill provides a reliable option for those seeking a no-frills meal. The menu suggests potential for variety, and the overall experience suggests it's worth a return visit - especially if you're looking to try something different next time.
Recommended for diners seeking a dependable, unpretentious meal in a pleasant setting."

Uahi Island Grill’s garlic ahi ($20) is the best and closest alternative to traditional Pilipinx (pork) adobo that I’ve ever tried. I seriously wish more restaurants would offer this dish!. Come here for Asian-fusion comfort food with an island twist.
