Little pricey but very good for what it was. Boyfriend and I both got the salmon and ahi bowls and the lychee drink is soooo good. The service was quick we went at 5pm.

Poke over salad
Saha S.

I was really craving poke but wanted something light and not over rice. I liked Poke Waikiki because they had an option for poke over salad. It tasted delicious and there were lots of nice contrasting flavors and textures, and it felt pretty healthy too with the salad.

#3 Ahi n Salmon Signature Bowl Small - so fresh and delicious
Jessica W.

Just as good as I remember! Impressive poke bowl for a food court! The only bummer is they don't have fresh ginger.

Poke Waikiki is my one and only choice in this food court today. I was not expecting so much flavors from the small bowl. Next time, I'll probably choose the Large instead of Small. The server behind the counter was so nice and courteous. They are pouring a lot of Aloha into the whole lunch experience. Honolulu Hawaii, we love thee!

The customer service was amazing though , Aside from the exceptional food, the staff at Waikiki were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They took the time to explain the different options and flavors, making sure that every customer felt comfortable and satisfied. Their genuine warmth and attentiveness added to the overall dining experience. It's delicious and satisfying with all the flavors and feels so healthy would get it every day if I lived here . It's in the Royal Hawaiian food court where you can validate parking or I just walked here from my hotel .

Pretty solid poke located in the food court at the Royal Hawaiian shopping center. Everything was clean and tasted great

Salmon and Fried Chicken

Fresh. Simple and good. I only tried the salmon, so I don't know about their ahi tuna.

I just had lunch here and I thought it was excellent! I had the #1 and the poke was fresh and the mochiko chicken was tasty without being overly salty. All the vegetables were fresh and the rice was definitely a higher quality than your typical takeout. Additionally, the staff was very friendly and helpful. I will be going back for sure!

Medium Ahi n Salmon Signature Bowl
Alan D.

My group wanted to eat something quick nearby and there was the food court located near our hotel. With so many things to choose from, I settled on this poke place to try. Salmon and Tuna: They have more of a preset menu, and I ended up choosing salmon and tuna. All the toppings were also displayed to choose from, so I chose for all except seaweed. Overall, it was not bad. A bit expensive being $20 for a medium bowl, but still tasty. The fish tasted fresh to me, but the amount was a bit small to pay for that. Still, the toppings and everything proved to be a filling meal. Overall, I can see myself coming back here again

Ahi Poke bowl + mochiko chicken bowl
Kelly N.

Found this spot while searching for a quick lunch in Waikiki. Was sad that Ezo Giku was gone, so yelped a few spots, and was impressed by the 4 stars. Friendly service with the staff kindly waiting for us to decide on the options, and appreciated the half mayo/half spicy mayo option. I confirmed that I still don't like raw fish, sadly, but I enjoyed the crunchy mochiko chicken alternative, and my poke-loving family members said they would come back, hence the 5 stars. It definitely hit the spot since I was missing my veggies on vacation. My only negative comment is I felt it was a little too salty. So might ask them to skip the furikake (seaweed/sesame seed/salt topping) next time. P.S. A warning on the Lilikoi Lychee Hawaiian Sun: not a fan--lychee was too artifical tasting, so will go back to my strawberry guava/ guava/ lilikoi/POG faves.

One of the best pokes I ever had. It seems like everything is fresher on the island. I ordered the ahi tuna/salmon combo poke and it did not disappoint. Add some more fresh ingredients and sauce it up nicely and you've got a poke bowl of excellence. Service was awesome and the place has a cute island vibe to it. Definitely coming back for more.

Jaimee S.

What a beautiful array of colors. To be quite honest, this was the most beautiful poke' bowl I have ever eaten! It was also one of the most delicious too. The freshness of the fish didn't go unnoticed and I loved that it was different! overall it really stood out to me above a lot of the poke places on the island. The service was great as they were very accommodating and helpful. I really loved its location sitting right in the malls foodcourt and my husband and I ate every bite! We will definitely be back again when in the area

Good option to put on the list for poke bowl besides F**dlands and I will give Ono higher score for…read morethe freshness! Price wise it's also decent and ordering process is swift. They occasionally offer salmon as well! Obviously the dining ambiance is prolly the downside as it's a simple outdoor patio in front of the venue, but hey it does the job! We got their combo of Wasabi Ahi and Spicy Salmon, both of which we really love. I might like the sauce from the other well known place tad better, but would say this one was certainly delectable!

I've tried quite a few poke spots around the Bay Area, and the quality of the fish here in Hawaii…read moredefinitely stands out. - The spicy ahi was easily my favorite. It had great flavor without overpowering the freshness of the fish. - The wasabi ahi was also good, but be prepared for a strong wasabi kick that definitely clears your sinuses. - I also tried the Hawaiian ahi, which was a little too mild for my taste. - The miso tako ended up being my least favorite because it leaned much sweeter than I expected. Next time I'd probably go with the shoyu instead since I was looking for a bit more flavor. One thing they absolutely get right is the fish itself. It's incredibly fresh, buttery, and almost melt in your mouth tender. Compared to other well-known poke spots, I actually preferred the quality and flavor of the fish here. The only reason I'm taking off one star is the rice. They use regular jasmine rice, and I really think sushi rice would make a huge difference. Since poke is essentially fish and rice, the rice should complement the fish instead of feeling like an afterthought. Service was quick and straightforward. You tell them what you want, they build your bowl, you pay, and you're on your way. The shop itself is very small with no indoor seating, just a couple of outdoor tables, so I'd consider this more of a grab-and-go spot than a place to dine in. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the freshness of the fish alone. With sushi rice, this place would be even better.

The staff is friendly but make sure you're ready to order when you get to the front of the line. As fast as I could state my order (1: size, 2: base, 3: poke), I tapped to pay, and they were handing me my food with a friendly "mahalo" that also translates to, "there are hungry diners behind you in line." Pro tip, if you choose the 2-poke option, you can try more flavors! I was introduced to this spot by a colleague who lived here for two years. The menu is delightfully brief. They're focused on one product and do it exceptionally well, the kind of local food experience I'm grateful to find when I visit someplace new.

So many good poke places on the island but the ginger poke here is one of a kind. The flavors are…read morestrong and salty so make sure you have some sort of vessel to eat the poke with, rice, chips etc. Usually our go to is to grab 1/2 lb of spicy ahi and ginger, it's around $40 but well worth it to smash that craving. The service is always fast and friendly. Definitely swing by for a delicious poke bowl with all the fixings! It's a quick grab and go window so it's super convenient, I usually just park at Safeway and walk across the street. Support local friends, enjoy!

The restaurant was pretty cute both outside and inside, and I could tell it draws a good crowd for football games, which is a plus. For the poke bowls, we got the Spicy Shoyu Ahi, Furikake Salmon, and Ultimate. Overall, they were pretty good and decent bowls. I liked that there was a condiment bar at the end to add any toppings you wanted. The fish was fresh and well seasoned, with no fishiness at all. I just wished there was a bit more white onion for crunch, but it was good regardless. The Fish and Chips were really good. The fish was super crispy, the meat was firm, and the fries were nicely fried. The tartar sauce or maybe more of a lemony aioli, was the star. It wasn't your usual tartar sauce; it had a homemade lemony sweetness that made it delicious. My only complaint was that the batter came off the fish pretty easily, which made it a bit tricky to eat at times.

If you want to eat-in, there is a cozy eating area outside the shop that seats 10 total guests. 1/FOOD: Ali'i has the best poke on the island. And they've won awards for their some of their creative recipes like their Kaffir Lemongrass poke. Other mainstays we love to get are the OG Limu Ahi poke, Seasame Sea Asparagus poke, and Yuzu Shiso Ahi poke. Honestly, you can't go wrong. You can get the poke by the half-pound or over sushi or hot cooked rice. The hot cooked rice is honestly the best way to eat it, because it doesn't interfere with the rich flavors. You can get two kinds of poke over rice for $18, and one kind for $14. 2/SERVICE: Super chill and friendly staff. The owner talks story and loves his customers. It can get really busy with a line out the door, but it usually goes quick (2-3 minutes per person max) unless there's a big family order. 3/LOCATION: it's in a small strip mall with limited parking. You can park on the street too. There is eating area inside for 10 people. It's usually not too crowded, because most people take it out.
