The food. The atmosphere. The aloha spirit. One of my favorites at Aloha Express is the chicken rice bowl and my husband never skips the smoothie. So good every time. We’re excited to host our third OSM Community gathering during our Friday Networking Mixer March 6 ⏰ 11:45 AM Special thank you to Auntie K for welcoming us and creating space for connection and collaboration. We invite business professionals and community leaders who value real relationships, shared ideas, and strengthening our local economy to join us. Stronger together, bridging connections. Let me know if you’d like to attend.

Looking for a good food spot that was not a chain restaurant etc. Stumbled upon this place and it didn't disappoint. I had the Aloha plate it was really good. What's even better is Auntie K! We had a great little conversation and she was so nice and gracious towards me. Definitely saved this for a visit next time I'm in town.

Exellent Korean beef barbecue plate. Very tasty. The side in the combo well prepared and fresh. Tiny bit chewy on the beef barbecue. Will come back. Rice crispy chocolate was a compliment during Easter season :)

Only one complaint the straw on my pineapple got soggy fast. But I grabbed a plastic one.

Lots of food for the price. The meal comes with rice, steamed cabbage and broccoli, a creamy macaroni salad and the entree you pick. I really loved the pineapple smoothie. So refreshing on a hot summer day after walking Sequoia National Park.

I've had this delivered twice now, and both times, it's amazing!! Really good food, you get alot of meat and its always cooked perfectly!! The flavors are great, and I highly recommend the kalbi ribs, they are great!! Something about them and the white rice, just feels right!! If your looking for the same flavor, but no bones the BBQ beef hits the spot!! Don't be fooled, the "mini" meals are not small, they easily feed a grown adult! We always add a Boba tea, just to mix things up alittle.. great place.. I will definitely be going back!!

I love Hawaiian food and when I saw that Visalia had a Hawaiian place, I knew I had to try it! This place does not disappoint with quality of food and service. The staff is very friendly, greets you with a smile and is knowledgable about the menu. The most underrated factor about Aloha Express is that they give you a full sized cup for water - so appreciated. They also have duck sauce which I’m a huge fan of! I have tried the spam musubi, the Aloha BBQ mix, rock shrimp, Pineapple smoothie and the fried potstickers - all highly recommended. The food was so good I only thought to take pictures after I was half way through.

This place was beyond words. To describe it as delicious would be an understatement. This is the best milk tea I’ve ever had. The meal was fresh and the sauce was delectable. 10/10 highly recommend and will definitely travel the 40 minute trip to visit again. Don’t cheat yourself out of an amazing meal here.
