“We’re thrilled to be sharing the flavors of authentic Hawaiian cooking throughout Texas,” said co-founder Kimo Mack. “It’s exciting to be growing our brand in the DFW Metroplex, and with multiple locations in the area, you’re never far from the Mo’ Bettahs grindz and aloha spirit!”
At Mo’ Bettahs, guests can immerse themselves in the island culture with authentic Hawaiian-style food, using only the finest ingredients. Guests can enjoy Hawaiian staples like its traditional plate lunch, featuring their choice of Mo’ Bettahs delectable meats – grilled teriyaki chicken or steak, kalua pig, pulehu chicken, katsu chicken or shrimp tempura – paired with the brand’s one-of-a-kind macaroni salad and steamed rice.
