Poke Restaurants near Lihue, HI

“This is the best Poke on island, I have gone to most of the others, but I kind of just went once. Lawai'a though I keep coming back to. Their best stuff is the bottom row of poke, it is their most unique flavors, and all really good. Their smoked fish is also really good. I also often get their hot food, which changes constantly in selection, their fired chicken and salmon belly is tasty.
The staff is friendly, when I got some ama ebi from them to cook, when I came back for poke they asked about what I did with them.“

“The food was exceptionally delicious and the choices were varied. There were six different preparations of poke. I chose spicy ahi and green onion ahi. Stellar range of flavors. The staff were friendly and very willing to explain the differences in preparation. Highly recommended!“

“Fresh & flavorful poke! 5 stars for atmosphere because this is way more than just a food truck because the location is right in front of this artisanal warehouse with local vendors beautifully displaying unique wares, everything from art, pearls, soap, & pretty textiles. It has a coffee shop, gathering space warm vibe. Very cool.“

“This food truck is the best place for poké on Kauai! Charming relaxed atmosphere, DELICIOUS food at affordable prices, all next to an open building with great shops. Corn hole game for the kiddos set up near the covered seating area. All 8 in our group agreed that this was the place to eat! Visited 2-3 times during our stay. Highly recommend!“

“We just enjoyed a delightful dinner that was too tasty for us to stop and take a picture. We had the teriyaki chicken and the grilled ahi. The service was over the top and the patio was perfect. Thank you! You have fans from Texas!“

“We found this place on Google and it was delicious! It's a great place to eat adjacent to the ocean. I got the fish tacos that were out of this world and hubby got the shrimp tacos. Said they were also delicious. They had Coca-Cola which also gave them bonus points in my book and brought our tacos to us at the picnic tables. Also bonus was they were open at 1030am as we were hungry!!!“

“Staffs are friendly. This is my first time to visit. U basically tell them what u like and they will suggest you which combination you would order. All of the items look so good. I always wanted to try sesame Poke Ahi, sesame scallops, kimchi, stuffed chicken and pork Lau Lau with rice for my husband and I. Love all of them! U can tell they have good quality of food and prepared them well in order to keep them fresh! Highly recommend! Love this Hawaii food! 👏👏👍“

“I told my wife we were going to a food truck that I had read about for lunch. She was a little skeptical, but said sure, let’s go. So glad we did. The food was so delicious! And the portion size was so generous. When you are on the south shore of Kauai, please don’t miss this gem.“

“I had the ahi poke bowl. It was delicious. We enjoyed eating at a picnic table with our friends. Very casual. Very relaxing.“

“Great place, get there early , usually there is a line but it moves fast.“

“Stopped in on a Sunday afternoon (not hotel guests) specifically for their Ube Flows... delicious! $18 each.

Also ordered a couple nacho appetizers - decent but probably wouldn't order again.

Service was very friendly and attentive. Gorgeous atmosphere, plants, scenery. Nearby free parking (if you can find a spot).“

“The food was delicious and some of the largest portions in the area for the money. Entrees were close to $20 per person which was significantly cheaper than a lot of other nice dining options nearby. A couple things that were less than ideal was that they didn't see our reservation that we made through open table and when we got there we had to prove to them that the reservation was made properly on our end. Also they were out of salad and fried fish as-well as a few other things I cannot remember. Overall I would recommend this place and go here again just temper expectations of a seem-less process to dine.“
