L&L Hawaiian Barbecue — Restaurant in Roseville

So this is the CHEAPEST RESTAURANT I ever saw as a Dasher in more than 5000 restaurants that I’ve been to & picked up orders from between the SF/Bay Area & Roseville.

I asked the cashier if I can get a cap of WATER and she said Yes you can.

I got their large cap that might cost the restaurant maybe anywhere 5 to a max of 50 CENTS (worst case). Have to verify that.

Once the owner & employee saw me he said something to his employee and this employee asked me to pay for the cap. (That CAP WILL NEVER EVER COST MORE THAN 50 cents anywhere in the U.S. worst case. So I had to pay $2.69 for a cap of water that I later felt very regretted to ask. I believe NO one has ever paid for a cap of water regardless of its size.

She later pointed to the smallest cap and she meant that one but not disclosed it when I first asked.

Such a shame! I noticed Most Asians and Indian operated restaurants treat Dashers poorly.

As a Dasher, I got some great respect & have been treated so well in white-owned, Mexican & Middle-Eastern owned restaurants. Free water WITHOUT a small hesitation, chips, salsa and snacks offered to me by many restaurants without me...

Update: So been here a few times since original review. The food has gotten way better, the front end of the house was extremely nice. They need updated seats though. I sat down to eat in store and one of the cashiers came and gave me a cup of water without asking. Do I need it? Maybe, maybe not, but to do that without asking shows the kindness of them. Definitely great food and great front end. Love this place and cannot recommend it enough. If you haven't tried them, you're missing out (and the prices are great too!)

Used to love this place. Wife wanted me to get it again and I agreed. We get our favorite, the bbq combo and well, it’s burnt. Seems they didn’t clean the grill often enough and now have burnt pieces stuck to our food. As well, I found hair in my macaroni salad. They were busy with a lot of cooking, but that is not a reason for low standards. Will have to find a new place to go to four our Hawaiian bbq fix now...

Food is fine. Just a little tip for management and the people who work their…. need to be a bit more knowledgeable about the food that’s being served in their establishment.

When people of different faiths and cultures come in and ask “what flavor is your curry”? Saying I don’t know or “it’s Japanese curry” is not an answer.

Chicken beef pork vegetarian etc etc those are “flavors”….. people of different faiths may have restrictions. So that’s why individuals may ask…. So hopefully you teach the white girl in the register and also other crew members to answer properly so they can enjoy without having doubt.

“Don’t eat it if your not sure” is besides the point. Having knowledge working at an establishment is ideal. Hope management can clarify these things with their...
