My favorite poke in Honolulu. Haven't had it in years but I still think about it. The spicy salmon is to die for.
What more can I say that hasn't already been mentioned? Alicia's Market has been highly recommended to me for several years and I finally had the opportunity to check it out. It is a family-owned business that specializes in poke, char siu, and roasted pork.Overall, I thought the food was solid! Poke was tasty with good flavors, along with their char siu. However, I wasn't a fan of their roasted pork. The skin on the pork wasn't as crispy as I hoped for, it was appetizing but nothing outstanding to me.All in all, Alicia's Market is worth trying out. The market is quaint with no seating, more of an order to-go spot. Parking can be tricky as it shares it's parking lot with several other business. Staff was nice and service was fairly quick.

This is a must go whenever me and the bf are in Hawaii. This trip we tried many other poke places and it has been decided that Alicia's IS THE BEST. We love the option of half meat and half poke combo. Our go-to is spicy ahi with roasted pork or wasabi masago ahi with char siu. But really spicy ahi is amazing it is a must try. Come early because they sometimes run out of the delicious spicy ahi. Super fresh and quick. Only thing I would say is I wish they offered pickled onions or something tangy on the side.

For a little hole in the wall local market it just doesn't get any better. The Poke selection is utterly amazing!This is your one stop spot for local food at reasonable prices. You have to try the smoked Turkey Tails. One of my Island friends asked me to try it and I have been hooked ever since. This is a great find run by a small Hawaiian Family. I absolutely love this place

Delicious poke, we always go here to get our poke fix whenever we're on Oahu. We always get the scallop and abalone squid and roast pork. Last time we came though the rice was undercooked but other than that the poke was still very good.

We come here so often I didn't realize I never left a review before! We always get their bowls, with all kinds.Today we got the salmon and spicy ahi it's good satisfied my hunger! Also the li hing slush with icecream is our go to! Favorite slushie float of all time!!!They are also so nice here and they are super quick with service! It's a small shop, not like before when it was big but it's same great foods and service!!!

Delicious surprise that your mouth will thank you for! Great find! Never would have thought to combine poke and pork belly, but it's amazing .Meat + Poke Bowl (chose the Pork belly + Wasabi Masago) which came with rice on the bottom. Very filling. .Pastele are similar to the concept of tamales and also shaped like a tamale at this location. Not a stew. Has masa and bananas and wrapped in banana leaves Parking could be tough because the lot is a bit small
One of my favorite spots when visiting Oahu. A lot of variety of poke with ahi, salmon, octopus and crab. My wife and I really enjoy the shoyu ahi and octopus. Don't skip the char siu and roast pork either. You can get a rice bowl with some meat and poke.
By far the best poke on the island. Everything is made perfect and so fresh. I love every single one of their options. Ahi, tako, anything. A must have is the slush with scoop of ice cream. I always get passionfruit but there's 3 other flavors that I don't know about because I can't get over how good the passionfruit slushie is. The one thing that is the only detraction is the rice can sometimes be a little dry. Maybe I come too late sometimes.

Came to check out the hype. Good food over all. Only complain I had was the kalua pork. It was so salty. My whole family couldn't enjoy it. May be just the batch. We were thrifty after. Poke was on

Stopped by here for some poke on the go. Very small place for takeout only. I got a combo of Tako and cha siu. It was quite disappointing because the cha siu was so dry, it was like jerky. It was so hard to eat that I barely touched more of it. The tako was tender which was good but it was quite salty.Not sure what happened to my meal since they have good reviews - my husband also wasn't a fan of the items he got in his bowl either.

This is a family owned market that specializes in poke and roast meats, specifically, Chinese roast pork and char siu. As Nam Fong's last day is tomorrow, 9/24/23, we were on a mission to locate a suitable replacement for Nam Fong's tasty, moist roast pork. So, we did a taste test between Alicia's Market and Asian Mix Chinese roast pork and char siu. Between the two Chinese roast pork, although they were both moist, Asian Mix was tastier and had a better crunch on the pork skin. The char siu comparison was hands down Asian Mix for flavor and texture!The reason Alicia's Market got 4 stars was due to the poke selection that this market offers. Don't be get me wrong, the Chinese roast pork and char siu was decent and worth trying. However, the poke takes center stage with flavor, especially the scallop wasabi poke.We tried the wasabi spicy scallop poke and the shoyu sweet onion poke. Both were delicious and if you're willing to spring for the scallop poke at $29.95/lb., you won't be disappointed! Just be aware that the ahi is fresh frozen not fresh, therefore, the fish texture is mushier compared to fresh ahi.
