I honestly can't say enough good things about Pine Isle. Everything you read and everything everyone says about this place is true--it really is that good. I don't normally feel that strongly about poke anywhere in the mainland because it's just okay, but Pine Isle was the first poke-specializing place that I felt like everything tasted just like how poke tastes in Hawaii. Of course that makes sense because the owner is Hawaiian, but wow... to get a slice of Hawaii in Dallas? A true blessing. I love their poke nachos, mac salad, spicy salmon... basically everything. You have to come and try out what the hype is all about because they truly deserve the hype and more. Note that they only have outdoor seating, so it can get really hot during the summertime. However, most people I know just order it for takeout and eat it at home. Please open more locations in Dallas! We desperately need Pine Isle to come to Plano (or even Austin).

I really didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised! Came here with some friends per their recommendation. I haven't had poke since moving to DFW area. They sang the praises of this restaurant, especially considering that the fish is regularly flown out from Hawaii. I ordered. It was a bowl mix with one of the salmon and tuna options. It took a bit of time. About 20 minutes. Nonetheless, well worth the wait. Alongside the poke, there was crab salad, edamame, seaweed salad, and half mix greens and rice. Everything by itself was delicious. Together... oh my goodness. I am literally salivating as I'm thinking about it. I can't write more. Otherwise, I will embarrasingly drool on my desk and keyboard. Highly recommend.

I am so delighted by the existence of Pine Isle!! Incredible poke, I am not surprised they sell out so quickly every night!! Their cooked dishes are also incredible, and also frequently sell out. This was become a regular takeout place for us, and I highly recommend it to everyone!!!

Left poke order: shoyu salmon & creamy spicy ahi w/ half salad & half rice on the side Right poke: shoyu salmon & shoyu ahi w/ half salad & half rice on the side Coming out to be $34.64 for 2 regular pokes not including tip yet. Food always hit! My boyfriend lovessss this place and we both agree that this reminds us of poke from hawaii! Order this online and it was ready for pick up right when i got there! Service was amazing. The staff are truly so kind and helpful. I was in and out within 1 minute. This is the third time being here since it's a bit of a drive. Wed probably go once a week if it was closer to us tbh! We typically like to order online since it's faster. This place is more of a takeout style shop so it's a tight waiting area which is why we togo now! There's also seating outside but very limited.

If you love poke, I have a spot for you. Pine Isle is a restaurant located in Dallas, with delicious, fresh-tasting poke. I came later in the day and got to try a regular poke bowl with 2 scoops of protein (creamy spicy ahi & creamy spicy salmon)! The bowl also comes with rice, krab salad, seaweed salad, edamame, ginger, and wasabi. This is definitely my new go-to for when I'm in a poke mood!

I'm only rating a 4 because I have not been in this location and experienced the service but ordering from here has been seamless. I always order the poke bowl with salad and rice but decided to try the poke nachos with wasabi octopus and shoyu ahi and I'm so pleased. The wonton chips on delivery where still crispy and not soggy which is a plus but the flavors within the nachos just come together no matter what protein you get. I also order the lumpia which is 10/10, I am no stranger to lumpia. I've had the musubi and the fried musubi and I recommend both but for a more fulfilling option definitely go with the fried musubi.

If you're in Dallas and looking for something fresh and amazing, you definitely found the spot! The food is extremely fresh and so delicious. The staff is very friendly and motivated to get you exactly what you want. The food here makes me miss Hawaii for sure! Speaking with the staff, they told me that the owner lived in Hawaii and learned a lot of these amazing recipes. Love it!

Ever since moving to the DFW area a few months ago, we have been coming here every other week it seems. The poke plates and poke nachos are our favorites. The fish is fresh and marinades are flavorful. Honorable mention for the fried spam musubis. We normally order ahead online and dine at the picnic tables in front of the restaurant since they have no indoor dining. They provide cold waters outside and the tables are always clean and have an umbrella attached which is a plus for when it gets too sunny.

My daughter wanted to hit up this place on our way home from Dallas to Houston. Mind you I am not in line to Poke on road trips.... Service was great they have 2 fish options , Tuna and salmon- 2 ways. I am not a fan of Tuna because it's a bloodier fish so it you can taste the iron and I don't particularly like the texture. (Still not a fan but it was really good tuna). The salmon had skin on which I'm not usually inclined to, but the fish was so fresh and the prep was done so beautifully that you can't go wrong- it was like butter. Don't plan to sit inside- take it to go or sit at the benches on the side of the building. I like the concept from a business perspective because they are focused on the product and customer service not having to worry about clean up bussing tables etc. they focus on their food. We got poke bowls, macaroni and the canned drink. For $16 it's a very generous portion I have to tell you, it's not a stingy serving. Haven't had really good poke in a while and I love that they are not asking you to build your bowl you can add and subtract but they know how it tastes good no decisions required

hey... this place is unbeatable. real down-home vibes, patient and friendly service, DELICIOUS, fried musubi is AMAZING and unexpected. fresh fish and great portions which make it totally worth the price! we met the owner bringing in supplies for the place too, kind guy! outdoor seating is lovely. was also amazed at the range of the menu. took probably less than 5 minutes to come out. please go here instead of a corporate "hawaiian" chain. will be back!!

Pine Isle was delicious! I got the fried musubi and mochiko chicken. Every thing is made fresh so it does take a little bit of time, so I'd recommend ordering ahead. They were also running low on a lot of items by the time I got there, around dinner on a Friday. Only outdoor seating if you're hoping to stay and eat so be prepared. My only complaint is I do wish they had pictures of the menu or something that offers a little more explanation in store.

2.5 I wanted to like this place, but it fell short for me. The first turn off was having to wait in line for a pickup order. Kind of defeats the purpose of ordering online. I ordered the pork lumpia that was just ok. I got the kalua pork plate. The mac salad was very bland and the rice was gross. The kalua pork is absolutely delicious. I won't return, but if you go, I highly recommend the kalua pork, just don't get the rice. It tastes off. The only seating is a few outdoor tables.

My friends got pine isle takeout for me after I delivered my baby. Man oh man was it good. It definitely hit the spot. I think she got me three types: shoyu salmon, shoyu tuna and spicy salmon. I loved all of them! The fish was so tender and not fishy tasting. The flavor was really good. She also got the deep fried musubi and it was amazinnnnngggg. 10/10 would recommend. Would like to go back and try the other dishes!!
