The poke bowl featured fresh, high-quality fish with great texture and flavor. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and the portions were generous. The veggie bowl was equally impressive--packed with fresh vegetables, delicious toppings, and a variety of textures that made every bite enjoyable. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, perfect for a quick lunch after exploring Waikiki. The staff was friendly, and the service was fast. If you're looking for a healthy, satisfying meal with fresh ingredients, Maguro is definitely worth checking out. We'd happily come back on our next trip to Hawaii!

The spicy limu wasn't spicy at all, next time we would ask them to add more spice to it if possible! The wasabi bowl had a kick that we were looking for. Most importantly, it was fresh and delicious! The food came out pretty quickly and we were able to snag one of the small tables outside.

It was love at first bite for me with musubi and onigiri, so when I saw a spot dedicated to this deliciousness you better believe I made a point to go there! I ran even faster when StaciLei, Yelp Hawaii's amazing Community Manager, told me it's a must and gave me her list of greatest hits and must not miss items as a guide! Now I've had a lot of these in my life, and I must say, Iyasume are easily the best. See musubi and onigiri have humble origins as a quickly made homespun snack or on the go lunch, and when you spot them in the convenience environment they're often a giant ball of rice with a tinge of protein or seasoning for flavor. At Iyasume, these are culinary adventures, stacked with ingredients, all in handheld form, and the variety they offer is IMPRESSIVE! Of course musubi starts with the classic, SPAM. I had to order the kimchi + spam, shiso + spam, and unagi + tamago + spam, all of which were awesome (even the next day!). Onigiri here are actually layered with ingredients, so you get them in every bite, unlike the convenience store versions! They have a HUGE menu, and I went with spicy mentaiko and salmon, spicy mentaiko and ikura, ikura and salmon, and tuna mayo curry, all of which were great. I LOVE that they make these to order. You can see the line in the back hard at work, and they're very fast. You're sure to encounter a line when you arrive, but don't be scared, it moves quickly. I only had to wait about 5 minutes for mine to come up! Well worth it. Reasonably priced. Very filling. A taste of Hawaii and Japan in one place that'll have everyone smiling!

Didn't really interact with staff as they didn't offer to help while I viewed the items and I selected my items fairly quickly. I found purchasing four musubis very affortable. Finding parking was tough and expensive in the area. Not the restaurant's fault and probably drivers are not the bulk of their business.

Any of their poke that is spicy, I get. This place is a personal favorite of mine because of the Fireball and Firecracker... spice is life! This is definitely a place that I recommend to people who are going to Oahu for their first time. The ladies who work at this location are a hoot. They're so chill, funny, patient, and hard workers. They let you sample and make sure you get your food. This place sees consistent business, we were there eating our food and always saw customers coming in and coming out. This location isn't really a 'sit-down' place but you can nibble on your poke for a minute before you take off. Inside is small, but clean, and you'll find a picture of Guy Fieri on the wall. The parking is not the easiest so pray for parking before you come :)

There are other similar businesses all set up in this space and it seems like a great place to hang out with your friends or meet new people! My friend and I ended up having a conversation with another tourist who is from Australia. The sweet yuzu glaze salmon was a bit fishy tasting but the yuzu flavour was really nice. The original garlic shoyu ahi was less unique in terms of taste but the fish seemed fresher. I think I would give this place a 3.5/5!

The shop is located downstairs in a food court-style area with shared seating nearby. If it's your first time, be aware you'll need to walk down a flight of stairs to find it. The menu has a huge variety of poke, which is great, although it was a little overwhelming deciding what to order. Ordering itself is quick and straightforward. I ordered a regular bowl ($18) with the tako limu, spicy salmon, and shoyu tuna. The biggest thing to consider here is the value. At $18 for a regular bowl, I expected both exceptional quality and bold flavors. While the fish quality was excellent, the seasoning didn't quite match the price point for me. Shoyu Tuna - Unfortunately my least favorite of the three. It lacked seasoning and tasted fairly plain. They do provide soy sauce packets, but I personally don't expect to have to season poke myself at this price point. Madako Limu - Easily the standout. The octopus was cut into generous chunks, giving it a great texture, and it had the most balanced, flavorful seasoning of the three selections. Spicy Salmon - The salmon itself was fresh and buttery, and I liked that it included masago for added texture. However, despite the name, it wasn't spicy and the overall flavor was pretty mild. One thing I can't criticize is the quality of the fish. Everything tasted very fresh, with buttery texture and no sinew or chewy pieces, which speaks to the quality of the seafood. Overall, I can understand why people come here for the freshness of the fish. If you prefer lightly seasoned poke that lets the seafood shine, this may be your style. Personally, I was hoping for more flavor to justify the price, so while I'm glad I tried it, there are other poke spots I'd choose first.

Typically, I like a salad base. I forgot to say earlier because they had already stacked my bowl with the sushi rice base, but I asked the cashier if I could get a salad base with unagi side sauce instead. They were accepting and said they could stack the salad on top. I didn't get the unagi sauce in the moment, but I wasn't upset either because I enjoy salad without sauce too. To my shock, they remembered I asked, found us, and brought it out to our table! 20/10 service, 20/10 poke
