    Hope S.

    Found this hidden gem thanks for Yelp! Located inside of Da Crabshack with no signage noted in the main entrance of the restaurant. Came around 1 pm and they had some poke selections left. Offered samples of a few styles of poke. Spicy ahi was 10/10 as the fish was buttery and there wasn't too much sauce. The candy sasago was a sweet flavor with a hint of spice, def something different. Must try hidden gem in Kapolei for good quality fresh poke. The 2 choice was $20 including the watercress & imitation crab salad.

    Candy Masago and Spicy Ahi
    Cainan S.

    Food: We ordered a 2 choice poke bowl with spicy ahi and candy masago. It's served on a bed of sushi rice with watercress salad and imitation crab. The candy masago lived up to the name with a sweet soy flavor and the spicy ahi had a nice kick to it. I really liked how the sauces were on the lighter side so you can really taste the quality of the fish. The only thing that would've made it better would be more side options and a stronger flavor for the sushi rice. Other than that it was great. Service: The guy was very nice and let us sample multiple choices before we ordered. Price: I've noticed that the price of poke has gone up everywhere lately so expect it to be pricey, but the quality of the fish is very good and fresh. The 2 choice poke bowl came with a decent amount of food so I'd say it's worth it. Ambiance: it was confusing at first since its located inside of a crab restaurant, but it's a grab and go counter type place.

    Located inside of The Crawfish & Crabshack is this up and coming poke spot. When you enter the restaurant, they are located on the back left side. I saw them all over social media and had to try it out and was not disappointed whatsoever. They have different types of poke every day which you can see on their IG page. You can either get one or two choices. If you don't want a poke bowl and rather order by the pound, you can do that as well. The poke bowls come with rice, one or two choices of poke and a crab salad, and a watercress salad. I opted for a two choice (hawaiian style and spicy ahi) and all watercress salad. The fish was very fresh and the flavors are really yummy. The watercress salad is a winner, especially if you like watercress. It is tossed with tomato and cuttlefish in a shoyu sesame sauce. So so delicious! It is take out only and when ordering, you are surrounded by the noise level of the actual restaurant which is not too loud at all. The two guys who helped me, whom I'm assuming are the owners were super friendly each time I went. I would most definitely recommend this place for their poke and poke bowls!

    Two choice poke bowl and sashimi

    Got a two choice poke bowl, garlic bomb and old school sesame. Nice to have a change of pace from all the same poke places with the same flavors. Really nice staff, they offered free samples and their house shoyu, which was killer. Fish was extremely fresh, tasted amazing. You can tell that the owner cares about his business, and if you have the chance to check them out, you should. Inside of da crawfish and crab shack.

    Found this place off of instagram and decided to check it out since I live in the area. It's located inside of crab shack. It was about $40 for two poke bowls. The fish was really fresh which is awesome but other than that it didn't really have much flavor. I got the Hawaiian style and spicy. The spicy had no spice and the Hawaiian style was just okay. My husband got the shoyu and one other choice. Can't remember the name but it was sweet. The sides (watercress & crab salad) were included which was nice.

    If you love supporting local then add this business to the top of your list. A true ocean to table operation, Da Poke Boyz don't mess around when it comes to freshness, quality, and taste of the poke they serve. The guys making your poke are the SAME exact guys catching your fish, cutting and cleaning it up, and running the entire operation--24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Hard working, humble, dedicated to their craft, and passionate about serving up 'ono poke for the people, what more could you ask for? Don't judge this business by their size--they're a small operation but definitely a mighty one. Serving up bold flavors, Da Poke Boyz truly know how to make a good poke with flavors any local person can appreciate. You can expect classic pokes like spicy ahi, and shoyu, BUT DON'T SLEEP on their specialty and not your typical supermarket poke flavors. I'm talking taegu poke, crab, and watercress salad! I stopped by on Super Bowl Sunday and the guys were WERKINGGGGG; sooooo busy, but still so friendly, helpful, and sooooo patient. I ended up walking away with a couple pounds of poke because I just simply could not decide what I wanted.... So I got almost everything :P The prices are fair, flavors are 'ono, and the service was friendly. Located inside Da Crabshack--Kapolei, if you're on the West side, I cannot recommend this place enough!

    Finally a GOOD poke place on the West side!!! Located inside Da Crawfish & Crab Shack. Service: the guy at the counter was extremely helpful and nice when we were trying to figure out what poke to try. They have a pretty good selection of poke and you can tell that its FRESH. the flavors were really great too!! If you're ever craving some poke while on the West Side, would 100% recommend!!

    Dapokeboyz is located inside of The Crabshack in Kapolei Shopping Center. They serve the freshest poke in the area, sourced from Laakea Fish Company. They have a variety of poke that is made with sushi grade fish. They also have combo plates where you can choose two types of poke, and it comes with crab salad and watercress salad. I HIGHLY recommend DaPokeBoyz.

    Candy Masago
    Nicholas A.

    Fresh and filling! You do pay for what you get... it is on the pricier end... but for the quality, it's worth it for most... i got two kine... Cold ginger was apparently a must... and that's for certain. Candy Masago was a little sweet. I really enjoyed the sides, crab salad and surprisingly, WATERCRESS SALAD! I was shocked to see that i enjoyed it as much as I did. I'm pretty sure there was fresh cuttlefish too. I will also say that I enjoyed the smoked tako poke more than i expected. I am not much of tako or smoked items, but that changed my mind for sure! They did it right, a bit chewy... but very flavorful! I loved that the pokes weren't drenched in the sauces and so you can really taste the freshness of the poke! Small space since it's inside of Da Crawfish and Crab shack, but service is friendly and quick! If you looking for fresh, flavorful, and closeby poke spot in Kapolei, come on out!!!

First, the actual plates aren't close to the portions pictured in prior reviews. We ordered the Smoked Chicken which was more like "Skimpy" Chicken soaked in vinegar. The Pork Adobo was drenched with "sweet/sour sauce" which left a lasting aftertaste in your mouth. The Pork Ribs were actually the closest to previous pictured plates - tasted like "salt and vinegar" instead of "salt and pepper" - still skimpy (little meat covering huge bone inside)! Their "garlic noodles" had so much garlic that I'm sure that Vampires and Draculas will stay away from me for a week. The rice tasted like "day-old refrigerated" rice which was microwaved. I becomes solid if not eaten immediately. So shame. I can't imagine the other selections are any better so I'll just refrain from returning again. I would not eat this food even if you gave it to me for free. I believe you'll get a bigger bang for your buck by using the BOGO coupon at Loco Moco Kapolei located in the same mall.

    Wow 10/10 experience! We came here for my birthday dinner and it was truly an unforgettable dinner…read more We were staying at the Aulani right next door to this restaurant and walked right over. We requested a table near the ocean and the view was amazing! The restaurant is outdoors with a nice breeze. The food and service were amazing. While this is a pricer restaurant, it was well worth the price. Everything tasted delicious. We ordered more than was is pictured.. but the seafood tower came with fresh oysters, crab, lobster, shrimp, dips, and more. Wow this was SO fresh and good. We ordered the Lobster Pot Pie to share and this is a dish that is a must. It was flavorful, had good chunks of lobster, and the star of dinner. Entrees were the filet mignon and lobster mash potatoes. The filet was yummy, but wow, the lobster mash potatoes.... They did not skimp on the lobster. Big chunks of lobster! The drinks were also so refreshing. The waiter sang me a happy birthday and brought out a bday dessert as well. It was just the perfect dinner for our staycation.

    Came here for a fancy anniversary dinner with all our kids…read more The service from start to finish was absolute 5 star. We got seating outdoors with a gorgeous view and watched the sunset as we dined. Our drinks were made well. All of our food was good and we enjoyed it, although nothing we ate was memorable. I understand that this is a highly rated restaurant at the four seasons but I did find that some of the menu items were priced pretty extreme and a lot of the food although very good did not meet the expectation that came with the tab. Overall we still had a great experience. Our waitress was so sweet, the setting was so gorgeous. Weather was beautiful as well.

Siamin was maybe my favorite dish, smokey the noodles extra al dente and the pork was flavorful 9.5/10. Pesto Gnocchi was pillowy and soft and the pesto sauce was light and flavorful and was one of the few vegetarian options. I would get again 8/10. Side of broccoli was spicy and zesty 9/10. Cocktails were also very nice way to start. It's a tradition to always hit the minkeypod when in hawaii and will continue. Don't forget the pies! Overall, definitely a touristy vibe but pretty good quality overall.

    Came here while staying at Aulani. We weren't too hungry yet and mainly got appetizers and drinks…read moreduring happy hour. Majority of the appetizers we got were good. - truffle fries..well...their truffle fries and cant really go wrong - taro dumplings (i forgot if thats what we got but they were good but not blown away either) - corn chowder was good - brisket pesto pizza? (Im overdue with the review so forgot what pizza it exactly was) but i remember this was good. It was in the happy hour menu is all i can remember. - wings but unsure about the goat cheese dip. I prefer plain ranch - the kids pasta was good. Well, one kiddo loved it while the other didn't. So it depends on preferences on this one. I will say i did taste it and it was meh... - another kiddo got the shoyu noodles and its plain. So if you got a simple palate plain jane child, they will like this one. For drinks, it depends on taste and preferences. I was bummed on this one. Mainly looking fwd to the drinks and it didn't satisfy my tastebuds. It was too twisted, fusion, modified etc. i prefer a mai tai a plain old fashioned mai tai without the fixings. The orange foam was too strong it overwhelmed the dark rum im used to and prefer. So i decided to try the ube rey instead which was much better but still not as much to my liking/preferences. Went back to Aulani a but bummed and decided to get another at Aulani the next day instead and I will say, i liked it better as it followed the more traditional way of making it. So if you prefer traditional ways, this may not be for you and if planning to drink, simply keep with the simplier generic drinks, wine or beer. If you prefer to try different ways and flavors, then you will love this. Service was great and our server was attentive at all times. Thank you. Ambiance was good but outdoor seating may be a bit of a nuance due to flies swarming around you often. The swinging table fan helps but are still annoying plus the tropical heat also didn't help.

    Underrated local dinner spot…read more The entry to this restaurant is so easy to miss because it's so narrow and it blends in so well with everything. I don't know if they want to keep it hidden, but I guess you could consider it that. We went in on a Saturday night with reservations and I highly recommend it since the place was full when we went in and more people kept wanting to come and eat. Service was great from beginning to end, I especially love that everyone accommodated my stroller and my baby. There were four of us and we each got something different, but to start I highly suggest the steamed shrimp and pork wontons and the lechon style Brussels - I would've double-ordered those for my entree if I could have! For entrees we ordered the garlic noodles, misoyaki butterfish, seared catch-of-the-day, and the burger. They were all amazing, and after we all started letting each other try we started making our own "flights" because everything just hit different spots and flavor profiles. In summary, this is one of those places that doesn't care about aesthetics, the decor is casual, but the food is soooo ono. They focus all their energy on food and service, and that makes a winner winner chicken dinner in my book.
