The new Boulder franchise location is co-owned by Matt Coty and Jazmin Brooks and has a capacity to accommodate more than 200 guests.
L&L is known for offering guests Hawaiian-style barbecue.
Its menu offerings include Barbecue Chicken, BBQ Beef Bowl, BBQ Cheeseburger, BBQ Chicken Bowl, Chicken Katsu, Lighter BBQ Chicken and Lighter Garlic Shrimp.
The restaurant chain will also serve The Plate Lunch, a lunch combo plate consisting of two servings of rice, macaroni salad and a choice of protein.
Plate lunch, also known as “the state food of Hawaii”, dates back to wage labourers in 19th-century sugar plantations and pineapple fields, who brought rice and other leftovers to work in tin containers.
According to the company’s website, lunches were often shared, resulting in a harmonious mix of home recipes from Japan, China, the Philippines, Portugal, Korea and New England.
L&L Hawaiian Barbecue was established by Eddie Flores and Johnson Kam in 1976 and started as a successful chain of drive-through restaurants in the Hawaiian islands. It was introduced in the US in late 1999.
The restaurant chain currently operates 224 restaurants in total.
