Sam Choy's Poke to the Max

Had the shoyu ahi bowl. Waikiki prices for mediocre poke. Rice was hard. Overpriced. I wish foodland poke was here. Regretting my $20

I really like the kiosk ordering method. Poke was delicious!

While the poke was super tasty, it was very expensive for the amount of actual fish I received. There were big chunks of onion in there to make it appear more voluminous, and the seaweed salad and pickled veg that it was supposed to come with was served on top of a bunch of lettuce so it LOOKED like way more was in there. Classic trick. I also got the fried chicken musubi, and while it was delicious, I ended up just eating the filling because the way it was wrapped (meat sandwiched between rice and then wrapped in nori rather than meat on top) made it so there was nothing solid to back the nori and make it easy to bite through. It was a big mess. I do like the option to buy alcoholic seltzer, though (very refreshing!). Overall, I'd rather go to another place where I can get more bang for my buck.

I hate to write bad reviews, Let first start by saying I've eaten at this restaurant many times over the past 6 years but today's visit brought disappointment and disgust. After ordering and waiting for my food I witnessed one of the employees drop the tongs used to get food out of the fryer on the dirty ground, instead of immediately taking them back to the sink she placed them back on the line. Moments later I witnessed another employee use those same tongs to prepare food for another customer. Secondly I ordered a soft drink mind you the time was 1230 and they had been open for over an hour. The soda machine was not operational and when I asked for assistance it took a long time for the 2 associates working to figure out how to make it work (poor training). They only had a couple of customers in the restaurant at the time. Once I received my order, I found the rice to be so dry that it was impossible to eat, and then the lumpia recipe had changed or the food was bad, so those were not edible either. Overall, very sad by the decline of this brand as it has been one of my favorite places for years. I will no longer be bringing my family and friends to this establishment because I'm concerned about the cleanliness of the restaurant, and with them, using utensils that have been on the floor disgusts me.

Ok poke

I wasnt happy with the soggy cardboard containers that my Togo order came in. Plastic or Styrofoam plates would have been much better for Togo orders, but food was good but had to eat as soon as I got it home....??‍♂️

What the heck was that. 20 minute wait no one there $25 for a TINY I mean TINY amount of ahi? Never again ::(

I was excited to try this, after delivering an order from here. Food was flavorful, however, the Chicken Katsu was in very small pieces, and overcooked. Almost couldn't find the chicken. I prefer the sliced Katsu. Staff was very friendly, service fine. Ordering is by kiosk and credit card. No cash transactions.

The food is ridiculously good. The kiosk for ordering is a little tricky to operate but they were quick to come over and show us how it works. Interior is clean but seating is limited. The ube butter mochi is fantastic and they have delicious, creamy ube ice cream too. Already planning my next trip

It took 30 minutes for them to make our poke and it came out looking like they had dropped the box on the floor. There was only one other table in the restaurant.

So good, I love the tuna, fresh

The woman at the counter was super helpful and the food was delicious. I ordered the poke salad w/ a side of musubi. It was gone in about 8 minutes, it was that good.
