    Salad mix with 2 portions of salmon & 1 tofu
    Mimi T.

    I was craving something healthy so I ordered DoorDash pickup since I saw it as option. I didn't realize the store was closing less than 10 min so I rushed over and arrived 7 min after doors closed. I felt so bad because I saw the employees were cleaning and tidying up. Thankfully I had cash to tip as an apology but the employee was very kind about it. I got the large bowl with salad only with 2 salmon/1 tofu portion, Serrano peppers, sliced onions, sweet corn, edamame, spicy furikake, onion crisps, shredded nori, spicy Serrano aioli, ponzu fresh light. It was very fresh and perfectly balanced. I will avoid the peppers next time because it was really spicy for me.

    Spicy ahi added salmon

    I did an order for pick up and everything was ready to go when I got there - no wait time. All the Pokeworks look the same, clean set up, you can see all the food. All of the meats tasted very fresh and I like that you can adjust the amount of sauce you get. It was super easy to order everything through the website.

    the $1.50 avocado portion was very small and underwhelming sad single scoop. the photo of the avocado online does not look like the scoop of avocado that was provided. was easy to order online. the macaroni salad was good.

    Low quality & long wait. The rice was mushy like oatmeal and cold, the seaweed was soggy, and the whole burrito was falling apart. Glove hygiene was questionable. I took a couple bites then threw it out. Will not return

    Rating: 3.5-4/5 Not the best but pretty good. Their toppings are tasty but they could use more variety and have bigger portions of meat.

    The saddest sushi burrito I've ever seen
    Ryleigh N.

    Updating my review since Pokeworks reached out to try and remedy the station, which I always appreciate. I tried going for the sushi burrito again at this location -- It was a flop for the second time. I can't give them anymore chances on this one. BUT their poke bowls are always super delicious and fresh, so I have stuck with that instead. Never been disappointed with that choice. It's nice that they have multiple locations throughout the city, so if you have their app, you can accumulate points and rewards quickly. I will say that depending on who prepares your food, you might get shorted on your portions. Poke can be pricey and sometimes it's disappointing to pay almost $20 for one meal and still feel a little hungry after.

    Spicy Ahi
    Gustavo R.

    Good portions & plenty of options! Poke is definitely expensive.. so you want to make sure if you're getting it that you're getting a fair amount! At pokeworks, we definitely got a fair amount. I believe we both got normal-sized bowls. Spicy Ahi (Customized) | 7/10 I changed things up... but this bowl still had the bones of what it once was! It was good - the tuna, a bit salty. My girlfriend also said her tuna was a bit salty - so it isn't the sauce. Definitely not that spicy. Decent bowl!

    The service was amazing coming from Secil by his kindness and consideration. He made my bowl just how I wanted it and was very generous on the sauce. I will keep coming back for his service!

    Came at around 2pm on a Sunday and it wasn't very busy at all, but it should've been. The food here…read moreis fantastic!! It took about 15 mins to come out. Everything we had was flavorful, delicious, and all the meat was moist! I can't wait to come back and I'm sad it took me so long to find this place! Highly recommend!! Service was helpful and friendly. The restaurant felt very clean, spacious, and modern with a lot of natural light. They brought our food out to our table and gave us napkins and utensils, so we didn't have to get up and get them ourselves. Absolutely a great dining experience! The portions are also big! My bf and I each got a Hawaiian Favorite combo and couldn't finish them. The entrees are easily two servings for me, so it's a great value! The containers the food comes in are microwavable too, so extra bonus points for easy reheating! If you do manage to finish an entree in one sitting though, you will be stuffed! It wasn't mentioned on the menu, but there's steamed/sautéed cabbage under the meat. It looked a little deceiving because I thought it was just a huge pile of meat, only to find cabbage under. Thankfully, I love cabbage and appreciated that there were veggies to balance the heaviness of all the meat. That being said, there was still a lot of meat, just not as much as it looked like at first. They also give you little containers of sauce depending on which entree you get, which really enhanced the meal. If you get bbq beef or chicken, you get a delicious, sweet, Hawaiian bbq sauce. If you get the chicken katsu, you get a sauce that resembles sweet and sour. If you get a combo that has both bbq meat and chicken katsu, you get both sauces. I poured the sauce over the rice to season the plain white rice, then poured the rest on the meat even though it didn't really need it. BBQ CHICKEN: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in small to large chunks. BBQ BEEF: Moist, flavorful, and delicious!! Comes in thin slices. CHICKEN KATSU: Moist! Fresh, crunchy breading! Tastes better with the sweet and sour-like sauce provided than on its own. KALBI SHORT RIBS: Delicious! Moist! Has fatty bits, unlike the bbq beef, which I really liked! Very similar, if not the same, flavor as the bbq beef. MACARONI SALAD: Delicious and flavorful! Tastes just like potato salad.

    $6.99 for a lunch combo special, including a drink. And on weekends? In 2025? Impossible! That's…read moreeven cheaper than most fast-food places. And yet you can get it here at Maika'i Hawaiian BBQ. There are 9 options for this value menu, which includes options such as fried shrimp and BBQ beef! For this lunch menu, you get a 'mini meal' which includes some sort of meat, about 1/3 cup of rice, macaroni, cabbage and a soft drink. Much more than we expect for this measly price, and enough to fill the tummy. And it was yummy to boot. We tried the BBQ beef, chicken katsu and curry chicken katsu. The last two options are essentially the same except for the sauce that they provide. This is a self-service restaurant, and the ambiance is very pleasant, with a big open space and high ceilings. Staff was friendly when we had questions about the menu. Very glad we discovered this place. We'll be back.

My BMP calamansi margarita was distinct in its tanginess. Tried the veggie lumpias and brussel sprouts. The lumpias had tangy dipping sauce that might have been dominated by calamansi. More tang than savory. The brussel sprouts were standard but had a good portion. I tried to detect whether they used fish sauce but I couldn't tell. Ordered the daing na bangus (milkfish) as my entree. They gave me the whole fish and it threw me off that it was mostly deboned since I kept looking for the bones with my tongue and teeth. Fish was nice and crispy and the dipping sauce was more savory than what came with the lumpias. The garlic rice that came with the dish was smoky from that wok hay. Probably could have used a little more soy sauce for flavouring. My favourite dish was the turon dessert (fried bananas) along with the ube ice cream. The coconut sauce they used seemed more like caramel. I haven't eaten much Filipino food so I wasn't sure how authentic the dishes were. I was expecting a little more intensity in the flavours, and I don't know if it was toned down for their customers. There were around ten customers that night. The inside was beautiful and they have a two level patio that is perfect for nights like these. The service was very nice and the kitchen was faster than I expected.
