L&L Hawaiian Barbecue Hawthorne Reviews
Unlike the L & L on Century Blvd, this restaurant serves hot food. It was so quiet and peaceful. I truly enjoyed my meal. A pro is you get your bang for your buck for a reasonable price. I've been to other places and the portions are ridiculously small. 😬 I'd definitely eat here prior to shopping at Costco. 😊
The food is amazing! Employees are nice and the atmosphere is very spacey. Great place to chill and eat Hawaiian food.
Went here for dinner for the first time ever and I’m super glad I did - the portion is HUGE and the woman at the counter was very sweet. The katsu did take a while to come out, but that’s because they made it fresh. Absolutely divine. I will definitely be eating here again.
Had the fried fish plate and it was excellent. Everything was fresh and tasty. Not premade so you have to wait for them to cook it, but it was worth the wait.

Great service every time I come!! Food is always hot and never cold
The food portion is excellent here, and service is quite nice.
Ordered a big order for 4th of July and everything was made on time and we delicious! Big hit!
Small location, big flavor! Staff here are very nice - this is a fast food style restaurant, so no table service. The food is delicious, you just try their spam musubi! Takeout is quick, but there are five tables inside to eat at.
So delicious! My whole family enjoys L&L, and we’ve sampled just about everything on the menu. Wholesome freshness and authentic flavor. Generous portions, choices of sides, and lots of sauce! Reasonable prices and friendly staff. What’s not to love?
Order was made very quickly, in around 5 minutes. The food was tasty, and well portioned. Usually don’t eat Hawaiian food but this one reminded me of other Hawaiian restaurants I’ve been to in the past. Just wish I had ordered macaroni, maybe next time.

Good food and plenty of free parking. It is also close to the LAX Airport which makes it convenient for y’all to stop by on your way there or on your way back to y’all’s city if y’all are just dropping off someone. Price is very reasonable. They also have exclusive restroom just for the customers, I just hope they can make it a lil bit cleaner. They have friendly service but their food takes a lil bit long and limited seating inside. Aside from that no issues. Definitely recommended!
Not what I was expecting in terms of quantity, but it tasted fine. Lunch rush was slow, but they got the food right so I'm not mad. They have all the accoutrements of Hawaiian, including the soda. Higher price point than I'm used to for Hawaiian. Go to rutts if you can.

The food is good just to expensive 🫰
Haven’t even tried the food yet but not impressed with the service. Norma has No Customer service skills. She wasn’t even finished with my transaction and she stepped away to show something on her phone to her coworker. Rude. Probably won’t come back.

L&L on Rosecrans has good food and portion size but the sauces are extremely watered down. When asked, the host claim sauce not watered down. The sauce is an important part of meal. I will not be returning to this Rosecrans location as other L&L locations have good sauce.
This place must have got a new owner because their portion size been getting smaller and smaller while price keeps increasing. Their portion size is significantly smaller compared to other locations. If you've been to one on Normandie and Redondo beach, you know what I'm taking about. I go here sometimes because I work nearby but I don't think I'll be going back. If you're gonna increase the price, keep the portion size the same. And their chicken katsu barely has any chicken. All breading.

I'm from Texas. Stopped in to eat and ordered a short ribs plate. They upcharged me 2.00 w/o telling me. Then I discover it doesn't even come with a drink!!! Side portions were minimal at best. I then ordered a small fountain drink. $2.92!!! I spent 17.58 plus 2.92. Crazy!! NEVER COMING BACK.
Food was disgusting. No flavor and sauce was watered down. Wasted $20
Recent orders from here food has not been good. This last time I gave the food to my dog. Embarrassing especially when this place use to be good every time.
Two weeks ago I went to this location and ordered their chicken teriyaki. Soon after I suffered from food poisoning. I should’ve known better after I noticed a wet mop smell as soon as I walked in. Never coming back here again.
