On my quest to eat as much poke as possible, I found this spot. I tried a 3 Choice Poke Bowl with…read moreWasabi Mayo, Chili Crisp, Butter Garlic, Crab Mac Salad, and Pickled Daikon. Wasabi mayo is my favorite kind of poke, so I was excited they had it and it didn't disappoint. I also loved the chili crisp. It was very unique compared to other poke I've had. The butter garlic was good, but I probably would go for other choices. If you're in Hilo give this place a try!

Finally got some legit poke on my last day in Hawaii. Just what I had been hoping for. Went all out…read morewith the 3 choices and 2 sides and an order of the poke nachos. Definitely couldn't finish the rice, but didn't let a single bite of the poke go to waste. Very fresh and we enjoyed it all! Only disappointment was that they didn't have the crab Mac that I had seen in other reviews, but did enjoy the seaweed salad and kimchi.

All the options looked really good and the yuzu salmon was so delicious! The yuzu wasn't overpowering. I usually don't like mayo based sauces but this one was light and great! Id love to try the ahi next time. Takeout only here!

Great reviews so we had to come by! I love how they make their poke bowls with all the additions…read more I got the spicy ahi and it was good. The pickles were tasty and the sweet potato side was delicious. I'm not a huge fan an imitation crab and there was a good scoop of it so it's good if you like it! My husband got the garlic spicy ahi which was really good. If we went back, I would get that one! Ordering was very fast also. There's not too much seating but we just took it to go and ate in the car. I would try it again if we're in the area.

I was happy to get to try a couple of samples from some of the vendors and some educated me on a lot of different things that I didn't know about the island. There are multiple species that you don't ever see outside of Hawaii or often at least. Was happy to know that I'll never see an avocado of this size in Alaska, but it still made me sad because it did taste delicious.

We went on a Monday afternoon and there was a couple of people in front of us and a small line forming behind us. The employee that helped us was friendly, patient and helped us sample many different pokes, answered our questions and made helpful suggestions. I got the shoyu and Korean poke, and my friend got the Korean Marlin. Decent portions and you know it's fresh. Great place for poke bowls.

When we lived in Kona, we would frequent the Jackie Reyes there. The food was good, but for the…read moreprice, the entire experience - not even the old, nonfunctional classic car out front - was worth it. BUT, the Jackie Rey's in Hilo has now become our go-to fine restaurant in Hilo town. The building is classic. An old town Hilo bank, with the vault intact. High ceilings, comfortable tables and decore and an artistic antique wooden bar that would be a gem in the crown of any European city. The management and personnel are the most wonderful people. Always happy to accommodate you in the best way they can. After one kamaaina visit the servers will know your name. They'll make you feel welcome and that you are a part of their experience too, something that is nearly impossible to find in other town dining. They have rewards programs for kamaaina which includes a point system that gives you significant savings on your next visit. The food is first rate, from the pupus to the main dishes to the desserts. Sauced and presented in five star fashion, without feeling pretenious. We will be their peskiest and most loyal customer as long as we are in the area. Kudos to Jackie Rey's Hilo.

My wife and I went to Jackie Ray's this past Friday. We got a window table and was able to see the…read moreactivity across the street since it's was Friday downtown open market. If you dine here and are not a big person don't get a booth table as it's the most uncomfortable seating I've ever experienced. The seat is way too far from the table and I needed to lean forward and sit on the edge of the seat. I would recommend getting a table its chair so you be able to adjust yourself to the distance from the table. Server was just Ok and with them placing a water decanter on the table for refill they didn't come around as often. The decanter water has no ice so whatever ice you have in your cup to cool the water. Last time eating at this establishment was better and my only complaint was the window seats next to the picture window and the flys that was buzzing there. Only thing is again there were two big flies buzzing the windows and I had to waved them away. The doors are always shut and only when customers walk in could the flys get in. Staff should walk around before opening and get rid of them. We entered about 5:10 PM so it was opened for just 10 minutes and shouldn't have flys. Air conditioning was on but the temperature was a bit warm and a cooler temperature of maybe 10 degrees be perfect. I had the mochico Ono and it was just ok tasting but on the plate presentation was nice. My wife had the pork chops and she really liked it but said was just a little over cooked. I did try a small sample and to me it was just ok also. ambiance in the restaurant is nice and most of the staff were very attentive. The server we had wasn't and I needed to Get his attention to get my bill even though he had passed multiple times and didn't or should have noticed we were done dining. Probably not be dining again at this establishment again and do know of better dining spots in Hilo.
