Our Story

Bringing island recipes to the desert.

Ohana BBQ started with one goal: spread a little bit of aloha with every plate. What began as family recipes — homemade teriyaki sauce, slow-marinated kalbi, hand-wrapped musubi — turned into a truck that shows up at festivals, block parties, and backyards across the Valley.

Every sauce is made in-house. Every plate is built the same way it's been made for generations: rice, protein, mac salad, and a whole lot of ohana. No shortcuts, just island flavor done right, one stop at a time.

This food literally made my week. The Mac salad deserves 3 Michelin stars. This food was by far the best truck I've ever had!!

Ohana BBQ catered our party for 80 and did a wonderful job! The food was delicious and plentiful! They accommodated special diets like gluten free. Highly recommend them!

Their Hawaiian chicken Teri bowl is fire! I scope them out anytime at the festivals near my place and usually eat there at least 2x!

These folks take food truck to a whole new level! … the smell was divine, the truck was sparkling clean, and the people were friendly. … The chicken was cooked perfectly and the teriyaki was flavorful but not overpowering. … We'll watch for them at future events and I suggest you do too.

This food hits the spot! Def reminds me of Hawaii and the closest you'll get to Hawaii in terms of food without actually being there. This place is doing it right!
