The Duluth restaurant will follow the L&L Hawaiian Barbecue fast-casual model, offering generous portions at affordable prices. Guests can expect a relaxed environment suitable for quick meals or casual dining, with seating inside for dine-in guests.
Menu and Vision
As part of the national franchise, the menu will feature signature items like barbecue chicken, kalbi short ribs, bulgogi beef, and chicken katsu.
