    Strawberry Matcha Latte (Oat Milk)
    Kyra K.

    I was so looking forward to grabbing matcha with Donna O. and Jackie K. I had heard good things about Cooke Street Market, but had never been. Glad I finally got to try the infamous matcha! The cafe's interior is so cute--lots of wooden furniture, fun merch, colorful decor, and a local feel. A lot of folks are coming to talk story, work, or study. There's a decent amount of seating from couches, communal tables, and more. It's a popular spot to hang out or grab-and-go. Our group of four all got different drinks. I got the Strawberry Matcha Latte with Oat Milk. Oh my gosh, this drink was huge! It's bigger than my head. There were lots of strawberries, and the matcha was high-quality and so vibrant. It took a while for it all to mix, but it was a real treat to drink! My Dad loved his Oatmeal Cookie Latte, and the others had refreshing drinks. Highly recommend coming for drinks here. They also serve various Japanese foods and small bites, which sounded good. Cooke Street Market is located in Imperial Plaza. There's free parking in the Imperial Plaza parking garage; bring your ticket, and they will validate it. Come for the drinks and a relaxing time!

    Came to Cooke St for their BOGO strawberry hojicha/matcha. I love the strawberry puree that they use because they use real strawberries that adds a nice chunky texture to the drink. This isn't the best hojicha I've had, but the strawberry puree makes up for it. These drinks are huge, so it's a pretty good value especially with the BOGO deal. I love how friendly and efficient they are, especially when they are getting a ton of drink orders during their special. There's a handful of tables inside, as well as outside. Definitely recommend coming here for their strawberry hojicha!

    Cooke Street Market has the BEST strawberry matcha latte I've ever had in Honolulu! I need to come back for their poke bowl, which I heard is amazing, but I stopped by for the BOGO deal that they're doing this week and I definitely don't regret it! The strawberry purée inside the latte has chunks of fresh strawberry that paired perfectly with the strong, aromatic matcha. Vibe: There's lots of indoor and outdoor seating. The perfect spot to sit and chat with friends. The staff are so quick and very friendly! They also sell bags and trinkets on the side of their store.

    I took advantage of Cooke Street Market's 10th Anniversary promotion! I ordered a Strawberry Matcha Latte with Oat Milk and a Hojicha Matcha Latte with Oat milk. With the promotion, both drinks cost $10 something, total (including tip). I was fortunate that there was no line at the time I entered the Market. My order was made fresh and ready for pick up within 5 minutes. I was hungry so I also ordered a side of chicken Karaage. It was delicious and tasty. Perfect snack with my matcha latte. Service with a smile and efficient here! Ample seating and tables are available here. No inside bathroom, however, outside bathrooms are available. Side notes: Strawberry Hojicha Latte: Uses roasted green tea (hojicha) for a bold, nutty, and earthy flavor profile that balances well with the sweet strawberry chunks. The signature Strawberry Matcha Latte at Cooke Street Market in Honolulu features house-made strawberry syrup/puree (containing real fruit bits), high-quality Nagata Chaen matcha imported from Kyoto, Japan, and a choice of milk (dairy or oat milk). It is known for being not too sweet, creamy, and layered. (HONOLULU Magazine)

    I ordered a strawberry matcha latte with oat milk and a garlic lover's salmon and ahi bowl. The strawberry matcha latte is one of my faves and best consumed with oat milk in my opinion. As for the poke bowl, it is one of the pricier poke bowls I've purchased in a while but it was really good nonetheless. As a garlic lover I especially enjoyed the crunchy garlic pieces with my poke. I went around lunch time and service was really quick. Lucky for me there was an open street parking stall when I went otherwise not sure where I would have parked. If I had more time I would've stayed to enjoy my drink and food there as there are plenty of tables inside to enjoy your meal.

    Parking: street parking in front and validated lot parking available Service: take out Ambiance: cozy setting, with a couple of seating options inside the cafe. Be sure to check out their instagram as they have specials every once in a while (BOGO) Food: one of my favorite matcha places. would recommend the strawberry matcha and strawberry hojicha. it's not too sweet and they use real strawberry chunks in their syrup.

    coconut milk matcha latte and strawberry matcha
    Diana K.

    Such a cute spot - tons of local art and little trinkets you can buy. I definitely want to come back to try their homemade spam and food I got the matcha latte with coconut milk. Loved the size (she's big!) but the matcha itself wasn't hitting for me. It wasn't strong enough and didn't have the umami-ness I hoped for and tasted a bit watered down. Could've been the milk choice though because the coconut can overpower.

    Hands best strawberry matcha on island, love the fact that they use fresh strawberries! Also a great spot to get some work done while enjoying my drink.

    2 Strawberry Matcha Latte, Hibiscus lemonade
    Linda T.

    Love cooke street market for their BOGO matchas! However the matcha today felt a bit less concentrated than usual. My drink is on the left and my friend's is on the right. Mine is whole milk and hers is soy but theres still quite a difference between matcha amount and flavor. Overall my drink was rather bland

    Food/(Drinks): 5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 5/5 I wanted matcha so decided to stop by Cooke Street Market. I found parking on the street. The inside is aesthetically pleasing and gave a "homey" feel to it. Ordered 4 drinks: hibiscus tea-ade, strawberry matcha, strawberry hojicha latte, and their Valentine's Day Special: Be My Matcha. The hojicha latte met my expectations as I wanted more of an earthy matcha drink. The hibiscus tea-ade was refreshing with the lemonade inside. Their strawberry matchas are sweet and delicious. I would recommend coming to try this place!

    Street parking & a parking garage behind the building also! It's a nice place and the workers were efficient even though there was a lot of people waiting. June special BOGO strawberry matcha or hojicha is a steal! Even though i prefer matcha the strawberry hojicha was better. Strawberry matcha could be stronger matcha flavor. Strawberry matcha 7/10 strawberry hojicha 8/10

    I was on keto diet until I ate at Cooke Street Market... I ordered a Poké bowl, and as soon as I saw it, I knew I had to eat everything! The fish was so fresh and how can you have poke without rice? Was it worth the cheat? Yes definitely, and there was no regrets! Cooke Street Market is such a cute little shop. They have so a handful of seats as well as cute merchandise. The staff is also always so friendly too! In addition to their Poké bowl, they have a handful of different café drinks. Their strawberry Matcha looks super good and I'm definitely gonna try that the next time. I believe there is parking in their building however, there's also metered street parking right in front. Whenever I'm in the area, I always have a craving to go to Cooke Street market.

    :( Not good.

    Was super excited to try this place since a friend recommended their matcha drinks. I ordered the iced matcha milk tea. It was not bad but not good either. The girls working were so nice though! I got the ginger chicken and miso salmon. Ginger chicken was lacking the ginger flavor and sauce, but the miso salmon was so buttery and cooked to perfection!

    Do they have validated parking?

    There's a two hour validated parking if you park in the building. Very tight though. There's also street parking in front of it if you can find one.

Off the Hook delivers consistent, high-quality poke bowls (trays?) in the heart of beautiful Manoa Valley. I've been coming to Off the Hook since it opened way back in 2018. While the prices have steadily increased, the delicious poke has remained the same. For poke bowls, you have several options to consider: 1) Mini or regular size 2) Rice option (white, brown, sushi, or green salad) 3) One or two choices of poke At this point I've tried almost every one of their poke offerings, and they are all fantastic. You cannot go wrong with whatever you choose. However, I'd say 95% of the time I stick with the Cold Ginger Ahi and the Spicy Ahi. These are guaranteed hits. I also really like the Wasabi Furikake Ahi. Lastly, makes sure you load up on their free toppings! Masago, tempura flakes, and scallions. Yummmy!

    Going with the Hawaii Only signature bowl at Maguro Spot is easily the smartest play on the menu…read more While most tourists default to the standard spicy mayo or classic shoyu, this combination relies on traditional Hawaiian ingredients and textures to make fresh ahi truly shine. ​Flavor Profile: Balanced and bright. The soy-based sauce lets the clean, buttery quality of the fresh raw ahi take center stage without masking the natural taste of the fish. ​Standout Textures: The real star of this bowl is the inclusion of crisp sea asparagus and toasted macadamia nuts. The sea asparagus provides a fresh, salty crunch, while the nuts add a rich, buttery bite that elevates the whole dish beyond a standard poke bowl. ​The Base & Mix-ins: Loaded with limu (seaweed), furikake, and fresh greens over warm sushi rice. The contrast between warm, lightly seasoned rice and chilled, high-grade tuna is spot on.

SHOYU ONION AHI POKE BOWL (REGULAR) - 13.85 + 6.85 for a slab of uni on the side The bowl was pretty simple, just fish + rice, plus my side of uni. I slurped up the uni immediately, and it was fresh, creamy, and bursting with umami. It was off to a good start, and I'd most certainly pay for that again. The shoyu poke was marinated lightly, so it wasn't too salty. The fish was fresh, but I didn't think it blew my mind. Overall, though, this was a decent portion of poke for the price. I wasn't too familiar with some of the other ahi poke options, but in hindsight, I think the Hawaiian Limu Ahi would've been a better choice for me. The seaweed mixed into the poke would've given me more of the umami burst I was looking for. Maguro Brothers is easy and convenient. I can see it being the go-to poke spot for grabbing a bowl and taking it to the beach.
