to the Heart of Texas

For over 70 years, L&L Hawaiian Barbecue has been a staple of island comfort food. What started in a small shop in Kalihi has grown into a global favorite, and we are proud to bring that same authentic experience to Waco. Our menu is built on the traditional "Plate Lunch"—the quintessential Hawaiian meal consisting of two scoops of white rice, one scoop of our signature macaroni salad, and a hearty portion of protein.

Guests choose us because we don't skip on quality or portion size. Whether you're craving our crispy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside chicken katsu or our perfectly marinated teriyaki chicken, every bite is crafted with care. We serve our Waco community with the same warmth that first made L&L a success, providing a welcoming spot for Baylor students, locals, and tourists exploring the downtown area.
