Being born and raised in Hawaii, it's rare to find Hawaiian food in the South. When I heard about Kalani's Hawaiian Style Restaurant, I couldn't wait to drive from Dothan to Phenix. It was a two hour drive, but it was well with it!! The food was so ono😋 (delicious) that it took me back home for a minute! We'll be back for sure! Mahalo!

Teriyaki chicken and rice plate were amazing! Thankful to finally have a Hawaiian style cafe in the area. The pork plate could have been less salty but nonetheless a great first experience. I am confident I will be back. There were particularly two ladies that were very personable and I appreciated. I was impressed especially with the one that came out from the back each time smiling while delivering customer orders and thanking them for coming in. This is excellence and inspiring to see. I would love to see the men around there follow their great example. Congrats on your new restaurant and keep up the great work! We’ll continue to support 💫

Very nice staff first & foremost. I started light, with only Hurricane Fries, but I'll be back to experience a few more of their offerings. Very good & a welcome change.

This restaurant is incredible and I had to drop a review. I came across the bridge to try it based on a recommendation from my followers. The customer service was incredible and the food was spectacular. The portions are very generous and the price isn't bad. Easily a 10 out of 10 experience and will be returning back very soon. Very happy I finally tried this Gem in Phenix City.

Came for dinner and was absolutely blown away by everything. Not only is the restaurant impeccably clean, the staff was very friendly and the food was out of this world!! We got the spam musubi and it was my first time trying it, SO SO SO GOOD! We also got the chicken katsu, teriyaki beef, and pork for the kiddo. Everything was hot, flavorful, and amazing. We will happily be back 100 times over! Definitely in our “out to eat rotation”!
