Ordering can be done online or from tablet at the store. We liked Grandma's Empanadas best with its delicious ground pork and Puerto Rican spices. Pollo Loco was slightly dry and more one-dimensional. The crust was thin and super crispy. Also tried Guava Quesitos from "Kona Sweets Bakeshop" they had at the counter and were glad we did: guava and cream cheese in puff pastry was match made in heaven. Other goods from "Kona Sweets Bakeshop" are also available at the cafe next door.

Between the two of…read moreus, we split a plate with three scoops of poke -- umami ahi, furikake sea salt, and spicy salmon, along with mac salad, coconut ube and white rice with furikake, eel sauce and soy sauce. This all came out to $31.30 after tax, which is almost the same price as their large plate at $35.00, with two fewer scoops of rice. Of the items we ordered, the ube coconut was by far my favorite. I am definitely coming back again for more of this. I've never had ube in this format before, but the mild sweetness of the potato came through, and I enjoyed the chunky mashed potato texture. The next item I liked from the plate was the mac salad. I can't remember the last time I've had mac salad with this much black pepper sprinkled throughout it. The black pepper brought an unexpected amount of heat. Additionally, I thought the noodle were cooked perfectly. In most mac salads that I've had, the macaroni has been cooked far too long, but that was not the case here. I also appreciate that the mac salad was not drowned with mayo, another flaw I commonly see with this dish. Although the poke here is fresh, and the pieces are nicely cut -- all uniform in size, I thought the poke was a bit too salty, and needed to be enjoyed with the rice. The rice itself was a bit on the mushy side. Overall, we had a pretty solid meal at Paakai Poke & Deli. If you're in this area, stop by for the coconut ube -- you won't regret it.
