L&L Hawaiian Barbecue is a restaurant concept that focuses on Hawaii-inspired comfort fare and hospitality. It began in Honolulu in 1952 as L&L Dairy, and the L&L Hawai‘i brand was established in 1976 by Eddie Flores, Jr., with partner Johnson Kam, expanding into an international franchise centered on Hawaii cuisine. Today the brand operates more than 200 locations across 15 states and Japan, serving as the mainland and international extension of Hawaii’s dining traditions. 

The business sits within the food and beverage services industry and is anchored in Honolulu, Hawaii. In 2026 it opened a new Texas location at Joint Base San Antonio–Randolph, reflecting ongoing expansion of its U.S. footprint. During the same period, industry trade outlets highlighted recognition that Entrepreneur Magazine named L&L Hawaiian Barbecue the top Asian food franchisee in the United States for eight consecutive years.
