You order first then find a table and the staff will call your name for the food. The workers were patient with us even though we took a while to figure out our order. We ordered one Huli Huli chicken to share between the two of us. Chicken was sweet and slightly charred but still juicy on the inside. Sauce was also slightly sweet and tasted good with the soft rice. I liked the sweet corn but the macaroni was just okay for me - not too much taste (but personally not too big of a fan of cold macaroni anyways). We also got a spam musubi (taste is as you would expect) and a shaved ice (ube, mango, and melona). It was tasty, with sweet syrup that coated every inch of ice. I'd say one main is enough to share between 2 people if you decide to get dessert or a spam musubi as well! Would visit again :)

Id honestly get it again for the presentation and dino rib. 7/10. * Ramen donut ($10) with kimchi (+$2) ~ this was super crispy and cheesy the kimchi added a nice flavour and spice to it. If your a fan of cheesy ramen noodles then this might be for you to try! 6/10. * Sweet chilli & mayo on a stick ($16) ~ it was crispy and tender and the chicken was juicy. I really liked the combo of the sweet chilli and mayo. Not to mention this was huge! 7/10. * Dynamite Sushi hot dog ($18) ~ this was insanly huge! And it was so crispy and flavourful i loved the crunchy exterior and the crab meat. The spicy mayo was also a nice touch of spice to it. Its huge though i recommend to share as it can he heavy! 7.5/10. * Overall pt.1 was a success it was all delicious and yummy. I cant wait for more of this night market series and to share all the goodies with you all!

When you enter, you realize why, the entire place is extremely dark with very limited lighting. At first, it was hard to see, but after my eyes adjusted, it was a wildly decorated tiki bar. They even had frequent "thunderstorms." I sat at the bar because the tables were very limited. The bar staff seemed like they have been there a long time and were extremely helpful when navigating the large menu. The drinks were amazing and well crafted! The nachos were a huge portion, even for being the smaller choice. Everything was excellent, and it was a great experience!

Also, it's a good idea to come after a hearty meal to fully appreciate the alcohol. As you step into this bar from the bustling streets of Vancouver, you're instantly transported to a humid, tropical paradise. The theme is all around you, and you're suddenly in Hawaii, ready to order a mai tai. We began with the mystery bowl, and each bowl comes with its own unique song and flair, making it a fun experience. Whether it's the fire, the smoke show, or the lights flashing in the background as everyone turns to see what you've ordered, it's all part of the show. Besides the bowls, be sure to order your own drinks, as they have something for everyone. Their menu is easy to read, so you can already picture the drink you're about to enjoy. Overall, this is a wonderful place to celebrate a special occasion with their whimsical drinks.

For the record - I've been to Hawaii several times but never had Poke there - to my utter shock & horror! Anyway, my bro said it was the kinda looking gas station you avoid just like in the movies. Well was he ever stunned - walked in & towards the back - Poke for sale. He really hesitated but was so hungry. Good thing he caved in cause he described it as the best Poke he ever had till today! Hawaii is the originator of Poke. I'll be honest I've been a bit slow to the Poke trend. I've tried it a couple times before but what caught my eye & my appetite this time was the sandwich board outside Westcoast Poke, advertising its daily specials. My gosh the Dynamite Poke absolutely tantilzed me. Flavours were 100% on point & delivered pure joy & happiness in mouth! Most definitely top marks for WCP! Bravo for freshness, presentation & cleanliness! I've tried the Coast Poke & thoroughly enjoyed it as well - Dynamite (Prawns) Coast (salmon). Oh one last thing - it's pronounced 'pow-kay' not 'poke' as in - I poked the bear. So say it right when you order it ok!?! Keep in mind that when you walk into most Poke shops, there is a strong pungent smell of the raw fish that's served. Trust me don't go with the urge to run away, cause the taste of Poke is absolutely a hit in all the right ways. I'm going to try & make 2023 the year I go hard at healthy eating via lots of Poke! I'm going to give up on ice-cream, donuts, chocolate, alcohol, cigar smoking etcetera ... ok staaaaaap! No way Jose! Who do you think I am!?! LOL! As it's year end I'll wish everyone a Merry Christmas & plenty drinks on New Year's Eve - celebrate, celebrate, celebrate! Salut & best wishes for 2023!

Patient and friendly staff, that they take the time to explain the menu to you. Very generous portions (especially with the avocado). Lots of toppings to choose from. For example, crab salad and seaweed salad had a spicy and non-spicy option, which was my first time experiencing that on a poke menu personally. My order: Coast: my favourite of the 2 bowls I ordered - it's super saucy (burnt miso chili oil & garlic aioli sauce). The highlight was the fresh Atlantic salmon, and I really enjoyed the mangoes. The sweetness from the mangoes really ties the bowl together very nicely with an extra layer of flavour. Aloha: Ahi tuna in a lighter shoyu sauce, with seaweed salad & avocado. They also offer custom bowls, and currently have a rotation of "Poke of the Day", which is $10/bowl from their Signature selection (not sure how long this promo lasts though).

There is a big parking lot, or lots of 3hr street parking. We arrived at golden hour and there was nice lighting and views at the window. They also carry some cute merch! Food came out quick unlike what previous reviews said, but I didn't like that one entree came out much earlier than my partners - so naturally I waited for her's and by that time, the uni sauce had kind of thickened up a bit too much and the pasta had clumped a bit. Croquetes were tiny - $8/ croquette. They were nice and crispy, but the tomato sauce tasted a bit plain. Would I return? If I was in the area, but I wouldn't go out of my way, and definitely not without a reservation. I think its a bit overhyped on social media.
