Poke Restaurants near Waimanalo, HI

“Some friends and I wanted to check this place out met the owner, awesome guy, super friendly, welcoming. We ordered breakfasts and the poke plates, I really wish we took pictures to show the beauty of these plates but it looked so delicious that we all dove into our food right away and I shit you not, it was even better it looked. The poke was spot on, could not taste fresher then if it swam out the ocean into your mouth! If can, give this spot a try, it did NOT disappoint.“

“Hidden gem of Poke, definitely sushi grade sushi in this poke as every bite was silky. Every bowl is mixed to order so the fish is not over marinated like grocery store poke.

Definitely, the best poke bowl I have ever had. Worth a stop on the 2nd floor. Super nice people.

Quiet place with dine in, don't let the environment fool you, these people know what they doing.“

“We were in Hawaii for 8 days and ate at Poke Fix three times. The food is great, the people are friendly and they get you in and out quickly. I would recommend them to anyone.“

“Amazing little hole in the wall poke shop. I got the yuzu shiso ahi poke bowl and it was sooo delicious. The rice to fish ratio was also perfect.

The place isn’t super obvious to find, but the location on Google Maps is accurate. The seating is very limited, so you’ll likely want to/need to take it to go.

Highly recommend!“

“So delicious“

“I went here after climbing diamondhead, the only reason it’s not five stars is simply because of seating and location , the portions were well sized so you don’t overeat, and the miso was so good even on a hot day. the tuna was fresh and the servers were sweet !“

“There is seating and you can bring about four or five people per table. There’s also seating outside. It’s a really cool area of dying with family, friends or coworkers and also there is parking lots of parking right behind. It is literally connected within the storage building. literally it is located across McKinley high school’s football field. It is such a jam. They have really good fish there. The ambience is calm. It’s pretty quiet and next-door they have other high-end restaurants. This is a really good area to be in if you want to hang out with people visiting and or just bonding.“

“Paradise Poke is a fantastic spot for fresh, flavorful poke made with high-quality ingredients. The fish is incredibly fresh, the toppings are plentiful, and the sauces perfectly complement every bowl. The friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere make every visit enjoyable. It's a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Hawaiian poke in Honolulu.“

“The poke is good. Somewhat expensive but portions are generous. Aimed towards Asian/pac islander diet so a healthy portion of rice. Mainlanders might find it too much. Sushi is fresh. Got it a few times. Surimi(imitation crab meat) is good. The scallops are good. It's a full meal in a bowl. Small bowl is not much less than the regular bowl in size and price but you get to choose 3 proteins in the regular bowl. Good and consistent quality. Might have to fight for outdoor seating as it gets packed.“

“the best 👌 super friendly and everything on the menu is bomb yes yes and yes“

“ジンジャーのpokeが特に素晴らしかった✨️✨️✨️凄くご飯に合うので丼で食べるのがおすすめです。“

“The best to ring in the new year, ran into a bit of a snafu trying to pick up my order, (no fault of theirs), she went above and beyond and still got my order! I love them and what they represent. My go to for the freshest poke on the island hands down! My friend Chef Adam Tabura recommended them and the rest is history! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Hubby saw this eatery on a local show so while in Fort Street Mall, we popped in. Loved our poke bowls, will definitely go again!“

“Stopped by during the weekday lunch rush and was super impressed! Even with a bit of a line, it moved really quickly, and I had my order placed in about 15 minutes.
I went with the XL poke bowl with tuna and salmon in a wasabi shoyu base. The fish was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and incredibly filling. Fast, friendly service and great quality. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m near Waikiki!“

“Very good poke. Reasonable prices and blocks away from the beach I wan they weren’t 4500 miles away from my home but it will be my first stop next time back Mahalo FIVE STAR POKE“

“We got 2 poke bowls today! So delicious, fish is so soft = high quality 10/10 recommend“

“Hidden gem, I love the sweet potato with the spicy ahi here. I’m from Oahu and haven’t had a favorite poke spot besides places I’ve been on Big Island or Foodland, but this place is an easy favorite. The guys who work here know their stuff haha, you get so much food too and the cost is worth it for the quality.“

“It is very delicious and fresh and the combination that one needs The best El mejor que he probado“

“If you are looking for the best poke on Oahu, K.Bay Bros Fish and Ice is the spot. The quality is unmatched—the fish is incredibly fresh, the cuts are perfect (great texture, no stringy pieces), and the flavors are perfectly balanced. Everything we tried was just ridiculously good. Highly recommend stopping by!“

“Hubby saw this eatery on a local show so while in Fort Street Mall, we popped in. Loved our poke bowls, will definitely go again!“

“Looking for late night food? Hnl Poke is the spot late night bar food! I got the nachos and steak plate. Nachos was ok I paid a additional $3 for kalua topping. The Steak had good sear and seasoning. In total I spent $30 still cheaper than Zippys“

“Incredible flavor & huge portions! I had the Garlic Parmesan Crusted Ahi over brown rice. I’ll absolutely be back!“

“Kimchi fry rice is amazing and the poke is fire, definitely on my list of top grinds.“

“I ordered the popular spicy poke bowl, and it was delicious! The fish tasted fresh, the ingredients were flavorful, and the spicy sauce had just the right amount of kick without being overwhelming. The portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh. Service was quick, and it made for a great lunch. I’d definitely come back the next time I’m in Honolulu.“

“Friendly fast service, fresh fish, great prices!! My favorite is fancy sashimi bowl. I was able to purchase uni from Hokkaido!!“

“Their hawaiian plate was so Ono & the portions were big. Highly recommended.“

“We had two experiences with Redfish over our 4-day trip, as it was in our hotel (Wayfinder). The first experience was better than the second.
The first was dinner. We got a poke flight (California, Roll, Hawaiian Salmon, Ginger/Scallion Hamachi), cucumber zuke, a side of rice, and a burger with fries. We were able to use our hotel welcome drink tokens to grab drinks from the pool bar. All of the food was delicious and I was so happy that I got to have Foodland poke without leaving my hotel! Our server Molly was very nice and attentive.
The second time was a lunch. We got the poke flight (same options), cucumbers, and rice again. This time, everything was salty, as though someone had salted liberally during plating. We got through it with lots of water, but I did feel compelling to tell our server in case anyone else was to have a problem that day. I didn't request a refund or anything because I understand the poke is made fresh every day, and probably by a different person each time.
In all, I recommend Redfish, and would like to return to try items not on the poke menu.“

“This is a not a dine in place, pick you poke or hand roll, order, pay(card only) and head on out. There are a couple of small tables outside though. Food was delicious, service was friendly. If you're looking for a chill spot to hang, this isn't it.“

“I had an amazing breakfast here and would definitely come back! The guava smoothie and mango smoothie were both incredible—fresh, refreshing, and easily some of the best smoothies I’ve had. The loco moco was packed with flavor and cooked perfectly, with a rich gravy that brought everything together. I also tried the fried rice with eggs and sausage, and it was just as delicious. The portions were generous, the food came out fresh, and everything tasted homemade and high quality.

The atmosphere was welcoming, the service was friendly, and the entire experience was fantastic. If you’re looking for a great breakfast spot, this place is definitely worth a visit! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The freshest Poke on the Eastside, hands down! Mahalo“

“very filling. yum. like the salmon bowl.“

“Awesome food and cocktails“

“The Food is Phenomenal – Get Here Now!
The food here was absolutely fantastic, but the service is what really sets it apart. You can always judge a place by its staff, and these guys were not only recommending everything I ate but bragging about the rest of the menu. They even let me sample a few things—it’s clear they’re proud of what they’re serving. They mentioned the grand opening is coming up shortly, so do yourself a favor and go eat here before everyone else finds out how awesome it is!“

“Fresh catch is the best! Reasonable prices too“

“Heard huge hype about this place - the staff was not that welcoming or helpful to my questions.

The fish is good but not as fresh as some of the other poke restaurants I had in the area .

Still a solid option to get a good poke“

“Fresh tuna and salmon! It was super fresh and delicious! I enjoyed their sushi and it was so so affordable! It was such a great meal :) I would love to go back again next time when I visit Hawaii. I highly recommend this place if you love sushi. It was great and they have plenty of seats and it was a clean and nice food hall. ❤️“

“The freshest Poke on the Eastside, hands down! Mahalo“

“I love everything about the poke here. Poke bowls are one of my goto takeout meals. I love it here becausd they have an option for sushi rice. For me, poke bowl aint bowling without the right rice. The tuna is crazy fresh. The variety is also A+ its just so sad that in this economy eating out is a rarity for my family and i.“

“Never fails. You think the place is closed, you open the door and theres about 8 people standing room only, waiting for their orders. The girls work fast at slicing your fresh sashimi for salads, bowls and bentos. Frying salmon or ahi belly and hamachi Kama. And don’t forget about the laulau with kalua pig and lomi salmon plate. Why not ask for a side of poke. Always sooooo ono. Enjoy 😉“

“Great service and super friendly with great food! Made daily and great choices. Must try it and you’ll love ❤️ it!“

“Great sushi spot in Kaimuki. The sushi here is incredibly fresh and full of flavor—it’s clear they take pride in using quality ingredients. The menu offers a great variety, from classic rolls to unique specialty items.

The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the service is quick—perfect for a takeout spot. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous, making it a great value for the quality you get.“

“Currents Sushi & Sake is a standout spot for fresh, well-executed sushi in a clean, modern space with great vibes.
The unagi avocado bowl was excellent—glazed eel with a nice char, perfectly ripe avocado slices, sesame seeds, and a generous pile of green onion over seasoned rice, plus a solid hit of wasabi. The rolls delivered too: the spicy tuna-style pieces with green onion and tobiko had bright, clean flavors, and the salmon roll topped with crispy bits and sauce had great texture contrast. The fried bites (served with lemon and dipping sauce) were crispy and satisfying as a side.
Service was smooth, the dining area feels open and comfortable with nice lighting and ocean-themed details, and the overall experience was relaxed and enjoyable. Portions were generous and everything tasted fresh. Highly recommend if you’re craving quality sushi and sake in a welcoming setting. Will definitely be back.“

“Found this small restaurant as I walked around the area. Prices have increased from the menu I saw posted on here. Most are three dollars higher. There is a small seating area and I suppose you can eat there but this seems more like an order and go type of place. Food is decent. I found the portions to be spot on. I couldn’t finish my bento box and I took a bite of the poke bowl my wife ordered. Both were good. Fresh stuff. I’d recommend for sure.“

“Aloha Bowls and Tea is a food stand style restaurant located in the Hilton Hawaiian Village complex. The poke bowls are pretty good and they also have boba tea and other drinks. The place is a bit pricey but convenient if you are staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel.“

“If you’re craving a fresh, flavorful poke bowl right in the heart of Waikīkī, Poke Waikiki delivers a delicious and satisfying experience with quality ingredients and quick, friendly service. Located inside the Royal Hawaiian Center.“

“Tucked away in the corner of a busy plaza, Honolulu Sushi at Ke’eaumoku feels like one of those rare hidden gems you almost want to keep to yourself—but it’s way too good not to share.

From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed so warmly—the owner is genuinely one of the nicest people you’ll meet, making the whole experience feel personal and inviting right away.

The nigiri sushi was hands down some of the best I’ve had—incredibly fresh, perfectly balanced, and crafted with so much care. Each piece just melts in your mouth, and you can truly taste the quality of the fish.

And the tempura? Absolutely flawless. Light, crisp, and not greasy at all—exactly how tempura should be. Every bite had that perfect crunch without overpowering the ingredients.

What really makes this place special is how it combines amazing food with heartfelt hospitality. It’s not flashy or overhyped—it’s just genuinely excellent.

Don’t let the tucked-away location fool you—this is easily one of the best sushi spots around. A true must-visit, and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Food was amazing.full of locals. It’s upstairs and around a courier. Definitely worth going to.“

“Incredible poke for a decent price. I’ve been disappointed with a lot of the food in this area , but paradise poke has finally made me go WOW! So yummy, fresh and fast. The people working here are also wonderful and so helpful when ordering.“

“This is the first poke spot I’ve ever seen in a Walmart. I always have to grab my poke bowl and tai tea with boba. There food and service is always good. I definitely recommend this place. 😊❤️“
