Ordered dinner for pick up while in the area, turn around time was quick. Lots of seating in the shop, which looked bright and well maintained. I made my own poke bowl but I think you don't need all the extra toppings to enjoy the poke here. The fish was great, I had a mix of the salmon and tuna. I am a mac salad lover so I got a side of theirs, but it had an interesting pineapple flavor to it that threw me off. Not your run of the mill macaroni salad so be warned. I'm excited to come back and try more of the traditional Hawaiian dishes. read more

Aloha Alley - poke bowl - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Great neighborhood spot. I've stopped in for lunch and had the loco moco. For a little perspective, I travel to Maui once a year so I've had some really incredible Hawaiian food so I might be a tougher critic because I really think the loco moco was good It just wasn't the traditional dark gravy that you get when you are in the Hawaii Hawaiian islands that side as a standalone item. I think it is super good and would highly recommend going and trying it out. read more

Must get tuna poke again!! We went near closing time and the nachos were sold out. So sad. I was excited for it but i got tuna poke and omg the sauce is crack. I would eat a tub of that alone on rice!!! Definitely getting it again in future. Loco moco is good but not my fave. Pog juice is pog. read more

Ordered lunch to go to enjoy at a local brewery and was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the meal! My husband and I shared a spam musubi (yummy, sweet sauce on it) along with the fire dance salmon which was good quality and flavor, and my husband really enjoyed the seasoning on the rice, too! We also opted for the Mac salad which was soooo good. Noodles cooked perfectly and delicious sauce too. It was packed inside when I went to pick it up, so that further shows me how quality aloha alley is! Def will be back. read more

Aloha Alley - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

My friends and I went to Aloha Alley to grab dinner around 7:30pm on a Friday. One of my friends and I are from Hawaii, and I asked the cashier if anyone on the staff was from Hawaii, and he said the chef was. The restaurant probably operates more on takeout, but there are a few tables where you can take your takeout and sit down, which is what we did. There were three other parties at the time, and it is a no frills ambiance. We ordered the tsunami nachos ($14.99), loco moco ($16.95), butter garlic shrimp ($16.95), big kahuna plate (kalbi, teri chicken, longanisa) ($24), and POG ($5/each - they had BOGO). Overall, the food was fine, and if you're from Hawaii and desperate, you can satisfy your craving. The tsunami nachos (ahi) were honestly the best thing, albeit the least authentic. The flavors were spot on, and I thought the wonton nachos complemented the fish more than regular chips would. For the loco moco, the hamburger was dry and overcooked. The garlic shrimp had a mild version of the flavors you would experience from a shrimp truck back home. Everything in the big kahuna plate lacked seasoning, and the kalbi was tough and chewy. The POG tasted very natural, but I was expecting a Hawaiian Sun or similar canned drink for nostalgia reasons. Again, the food is fine, and the prices are appropriate for the area. I just went in expecting to have a taste of home, and the flavors didn't live up to my experiences. read more

Aloha Alley - ahi poke (large 16oz) - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I've never had Hawaiian food but I wanted to try it for a minute. I pulled up to aloha valley. It's in dumbo a pretty good area. They specialize in poke and Hawaiian food so I ordered the big kahuna. Where you get a good mix of everything. Rice, 3 Meats, and macaroni salad. Plus I got a side salad. Priced at $24 but they pack it out with protein. I like how they add sesame on the rice it adds a nice crunch. There's chicken, steak and I think pork. I really wanted to try this Hawaiian mac salad. It's different from how Caribbeans make it but it compliments the meal. After eating everything, it fills me up but doesn't leave me sluggish. It's a pretty good meal. Customer service was straight forward. Shout out to the guy who helped me. Food didn't take too long. I would definitely come back to explore the Hawaiian flavors. read more

We stopped by after walking around DUMBO for a bit and I always love Hawaiian food so I'd figure we give this place a try. It was alright but nothing to write home about. The fish and flavors of the kamikaze nachos was good but the wonton chips were hit or miss. Some were too oily and not crisp enough. Some were too hard that it hurt my teeth to bite into. The spicy garlic shrimp flavor-wise was also good but we're never fans of places that keep the tails on the shrimp. It just makes it harder to eat. The restaurant itself is nice though and maybe the poke bowls and other dishes are better. read more

Aloha Alley - Kamikaze Nachos Spicy Garlic Shrimp - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Located in Dumbo, just a short walk from the waterfront, Aloha Alley is a laid-back spot offering traditional Hawaiian dishes like musubi, poke, loco moco at reasonable prices. The portion sizes were generously large. The teri chicken was excellent! It was tender with a delightful balance of sweetness and tang. The macaroni salad was the perfect side for this dish. It also comes with furikake rice. I have never had it before, but it was a savory and unique flavor profile. Service was also fast and kind. It was refreshing to find a reasonably priced restaurant in such a tourist-heavy area of Dumbo. read more

Aloha Alley - Teri Chicken - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This is a good spot for the Dumbo residents since it's a great choice for some yummy food in the neighborhood! This is more of a takeout spot with some seating to relax and chill with family or friends so I think this is more affordable spot if you're in the area as a tourist or a resident of Dumbo. You order at the register and you get your meal in the back. One of my friends went to Hawaii and said that this wasn't as authentic as she would hope but I didn't know as I never been. I got the big kahuna which was a whopping $24 which was pricey for what it was in a take out kind of spot with to go utensils and containers. My friends got the loco moco and didn't have too much to say about that one. I like having a side of mac with my bbq but I felt like for the price I rather just go to FOB as it tastes very similar to Filipino bbq and we would get more sides. I got the spam musubi to go and I think it was just okay. It's quite overrated on Instagram but I still think this is a great option for people to have if they're in the area as Dumbo is filled with extremely pricey food and we definitely needed a spot like this. I don't know if I would go out of my way to eat here again but it was good to try. Maybe if I was back in the area I would try their poke next time. read more

What a fun find! My husband and I ordered from here for the second time today and we just love how fresh and delicious the food is. The poke nachos are divine! Crispy wontons as nachos with fresh ahi, chopped jalapeños + pineapple and topped with sauces that only elevate the dish. It's such a good blend of crispy fatty goodness. I got the fire dancer salmon poke tonight and that was really as fresh and flavorful. The cooked bowls aren't bad either but the Mac salad doesn't compare to other Hawaiian spots-it lacks that certain something. Regardless, it's such a fun spot to order from. read more

Aloha Alley - Tsunami Nachos - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I came by with a friend for a post-workout meal in DUMBO. It's a nice, little Hawaiian spot for a casual dine-in or grab to-go and enjoy at Pebble Beach. You don't find Hawaiian food often in NY, so this is a nice treat with a variety of plates, musubis, poke, and nachos. Between the two of us, we shared the Longanisa Musubi Combo ($12), Kamikaze Nachos ($14.99), and BBQ Surf & Turf ($16.95). The combo also came with a POG drink, which was good but not sure I'd pay $5 for it. The musubi was OK, nothing all too special really. The surf and turf was nice to try both the chicken and shrimp, but I wish we could've picked a different flavor for the shrimp. The favorite was the nachos, which is the perfect order to share. Next time I'd have to try the poke and their garlic shrimp to really compare to Hawaii. Otherwise, glad to have this spot in Brooklyn. read more

Obsessed with this new Hawaiian spot from the Em Vietnamese team. Came for a casual dinner one night and ordered the musubi combo (pork longanisa and POG), and the Teri chicken bbq (comes with mac salad). My favorite items were the mac salad and POG. Pork longanisa was also excellent. Would try the poke next time. Shave ice is also apparently coming soon - fingers crossed! read more

As a fan of Asian grilled meats in general (viet porkchop, kbbq, etc.), the big kahuna bowl hit the spot. Iced matcha latte and POG were also great. Musubi was a bit messy to eat and I feel like there wasn't enough longanisa in it but ofc still such a good quick comfort food. I have to try the 1 protein poke next time (not custom bowls) for the true authentic Hawaiian experience. read more

lovely fast casual spot for Hawaiian foods right by the DUMBO waterfront. The menu is slim, but it has some of the hardest hitting Hawaiian items. I tried their loco moco plate, which is made with beef patties and two fried eggs, as well as rice and macaroni salad. the flavor of the gravy was really savory with a bit of sweetness. the service was friendly, though getting the food to go required a bit of a wait. the interior is simple and there is some limited seating inside. I recommend! read more

Aloha Alley - Taunami Nachos & Spicy Garlic Shrimp - Hawaiian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

When you walk in, you're warmly greeted with an "Aloha" that instantly sets the tone, just like being on the islands. The style is casual and welcoming. Every dish had so much flavor Below are some of the dishes we tried Barbecue Teri Salmon I'm usually not big on cooked salmon, but this one was a game changer. Perfectly grilled with a sweet, not-fishy flavor that made it so enjoyable. The macaroni salad was creamy with a nice crunch, pretty sure those were bits of carrots in there. Simple and comforting. Aloha Salmon Poké This was so smooth and fresh. The salmon was high-quality and paired perfectly with sweet onions and little chunks of mango. The shoyu ponzu added a nice tang and the furikake rice tied it all together. Not a lot of places on the mainland offer poké a la carte without turning it into a bowl and I appreciated that simplicity focusing on the fish and the flavor. As close as you'll get to real Hawaiian poké without getting on a plane! Butter Garlic Shrimp Perfectly cooked, just pink enough with a satisfying bounce when you bite into it. The breadcrumbs added a nice texture, and I swear there was a hint of coconut in the seasoning that I absolutely loved. Comes with rice and macaroni salad for a complete experience. Spam & Longanisa Musubi Tried both versions (they come with egg) and while the classic Spam Teriyaki is my favorite salty, savory, and nostalgic,the longanisa version was a fun twist. Sweet, garlicky sausage flavor that gave major Filipino breakfast vibes. Great grab-and-go snack for New Yorkers or tourists on the move. Kamikaze Nachos Such a fun surprise! Crunchy wonton chips topped with Aloha Salmon poké, mango, scallions, and sauces. Loved the mix of textures and flavors, the sweet mango and spicy mayo combo was fire. Lumpia A Filipino classic that never misses. Crispy, golden pork lumpia served with sweet and sour sauce. Always a win. Overall, this spot is bringing bold, authentic flavors in every bite. Whether you're missing Hawaii or just want something different and delicious, you won't be disappointed. Definitely will be back. read more

Personally, the food was very lackluster. My friends and I ordered the Aloha salmon poke 8 oz and the flame dance salmon 8 oz, so for the price we expected something really phenomenal but it was just ordinary. For the same price, I'd recommend you go down to Atlantic and head over to Pokébowl station where the portions are so much bigger and there is more variety in vegetables and drinks. read more

Tucked away on a side street near Timeout Market, Aloha Alley is an excellent option for Asian fusion food! Aloha Alley has fresh poke bowls with generous portions of fish, and tasty nachos made with crispy wonton noodles. So creative! The service is great, very friendly and efficient. And the restaurant is cozy with a half dozen tables and Hawaiian decor everywhere. I would recommend coming in for a healthy casual bite with small groups! read more

This place really lives up to its hype imo. the line was out the door and I think everyone had the same idea to get this place for lunch. I think they're relatively new so their service was a bit chaotic, but with a crowd it was expected. there was plenty of seats inside to grab and eat which was nice. the poke was super fresh and made to order which is so nice to see. they had so many ingredients to choose from which I appreciate and it also meant my poke was exactly how I liked it. the platter was also delicious, but the rice was a bit soggy? mushy? we weren't too sure why, but the meat was charred and flavored amazingly! the mac salad was so good as well. the POG was refreshing for all the food! read more

Was super excited because saw this place on TikTok and the price + fish quality were both great but I wouldn't travel all the way to dumbo for it. You order beforehand online and the wait said 30-40 mins but it was ready in 10. We tried all 3 of the Hawaiian style fishes and I honestly liked all 3 of them and they paired well with the rice (wish this was softer) but the fire dance tuna was our favorite. We also got the tuna nachos which were good but I wouldn't need it again. I didn't like the Mac salad but my friends did, and the matcha was actually really good! read more

10/26 -- nice casual Hawaiian-Filipino spot, you order at the counter and there's several tables you can sit at. I thought service was great. - salmon poke and rice: BOMB! Salmon was creamy and fresh and buttery, my tongue was in heaven; and the rice??? They put crack in that furikake topped rice... I was obsessed - furikake fries was ok, a bit too sweet for my liking and was soggy bc of the sauce - loco moco was ok, the beef itself was solid and the pasta was also great, the rice was just distractingly too gingery - lumpia was perfectly crispy and flavor was spot on, probably some of the best lumpia in the city read more

A cute little Hawaiian spot serving up high quality dishes in dumbo. More of a casual spot with about 6 tables inside, I could imagine taking food to-go and eating it by the water! Came here on a Sunday with a friend for a mid-day meal (around 3:30 pm). We opted to split a few dishes and got the following: - Longanisa Musubi Combo: I wasn't sure about trying this vs a typical spam musubi, but I'm glad we did! The longanisa was nicely cooked and I felt like it was something different. Would definitely order again. - Kamikaze Nachos: The nachos were fried to perfection with little air pouches that only come from a solid bath in oil. The nachos were also topped with salmon poke and had a ton of flavor. Delicious but definitely decadent and I would only get when sharing with a friend (or ideally multiple friends!) - BBQ Surf & Turf: Solid but nothing novel about it. Came with rice and macaroni salad. If you are looking for a classic hawaiian plate this will do it. - POG juice: I'm not a big juice drinker, but the POG was solid. Overall a tasty meal with some hits and no misses! The only nit I have is that our food took a while to come out-- I noticed people who ordered after us getting their food ahead of us (and it was the same dishes). read more

So happy to have this new restaurant addition to DUMBO. It replaced a sushi restaurant that used to be in this spot. Aloha Alley is a Hawaiian poke and bbq, fast, casual restaurant. Nice and clean inside with cute decor. Not sure if it's because it's a new operation and they're still adjusting but service is slow here, especially if you order kitchen hot food items. If you just want poke, it's quick since it's all prepped already for your selection. I only had the pork lumpia and POG drink from here so far, and the food and drink are delicious. I've heard great comments about the food here from others though, but only complaint is the wait time. Hopefully, they sort out the kinks soon. read more

The food here was very tasty (loved the POG juice) and Kenny was also helpful with the recs!

Wow! The food was incredible. If you can find a time that this place is not busy... you scored a jackpot. The poké was so fresh and the portions were HUGE. We ended up sharing because there was just too much. I got a Fire Dance Salmon and the fries. (ONE OF THE BEST FRIES I'VE EVER HAD!) A lot of flavor and perfectly crisp. Not pictured, but I got a lemonade too. There was something special about it. It is a must try! I took a sip of the matcha, and I kinda wish I bought one of them too. All the drinks are good! Service was on point. The owner actually delivered and spoke to the customers when we visited. It was so nice to see how much care they put on the food and experience. They recently opened so they are fine-tuning the supplies and delivery. Overall, there is something really special about this place. I think it goes to show by the constant flow of customers. I think ordering ahead is the best way... We really lucked out, but as soon as we ordered, the place was packed! Food was delivered quick and brought to us by the owner himself. A+++ P.S. Try the salmon teriyaki/musubi. I took a bite and ordered three to go! Worth it. read more

Stopped here for a quick bite while in dumbo. I wanted something light and refreshing and this did the trick. This is a Hawaiian poke and bbq spot with a great selection of choices. When I entered there were a few people there who were still deciphering on what to get from the menu. I opted for the poke combo which included 3 poke tacos and a drink (also allows you to save 50 cents if you were planning on getting a drink and taco separately). I went with the salmon poke tacos which had chopped mangos, sweet onion and cucumbers with a ponzu sauce. I waited about 10 minutes and my meal was ready for pick up at the counter. The crispy shells added a nice crunch to a typically soft poke meal and the tacos were generously filled. After 3 I felt like my savory appetite was satisfied but I wasn't overly stuffed. For my drink I opted for the hibiscus refresher which wasnt as sweet but more flavorful for a drink. My friend ordered the POG which was the passionfruit orange and guava drink -more on the tart side but very refreshing! The staff was super friendly and gave us extra napkins as well and the place itself is cute with Hawaiian themed decor and seating for 20 people or so. read more

Poke is good, would come back for that. The big kahuna plate I wouldn't get again. The short ribs were tough and fatty, the chicken was just ok and I got a teeny tiny sausage as well that tasted good at least. It's also annoying that the only way you can order the short ribs is in combination with two other things...I found that unusual. I had my hopes high and traveled from Manhattan to come here and I think it was just average. You be the judge read more

I just want to say that the 5 stars this place has on Yelp is very, extremely, truly deserved. The food is amazing. The serving size is more than generous. And the staff accommodated a last minute switch up after my husband made a mistake and ordered the wrong nachos and paid already (switched from Kamikaze to Tsunami because I'm a tuna girl). Nacho chips were delectable and I was just obsessed with the crisp, the tuna, the mayo, and everything else. I didn't take a picture of hub's Big Kahuna plate, but even though I remember the beef and longanisa being just ok, the chicken teriyaki is just so *chef's kiss*. Surf and Turf also is thumbs up from me. A gem in Dumbo and I hope to come back again! read more

Took the kiddos to Brooklyn Bridge Park and walked to a nearby spot for lunch. We kicked things off with the Kamikaze Nachos to share--crispy, flavorful, and a lighter twist compared to the usual heavy nachos loaded with meat, sauce, and cheese. The salmon was especially fresh and well-seasoned, a definite highlight. For our main, we tried the Big Kahuna plate, which was great for sampling--Galbi Short Rib, Teriyaki Chicken, and Longanisa. Each had its own flavor profile and complemented the others nicely. For drinks, we got two refreshing options the kids loved: Matcha and Aloha Lemonade. The Aloha one stood out with its use of Calamansi. My kids loved the bright citrus blend of lemon, lime, and orange. read more

So excited to have this new Hawaiian BBQ & poke spot in the neighborhood! I stopped by and tried the loco moco--absolutely delicious. The homemade mushroom gravy is next-level and pulls the whole dish together perfectly. You can really taste the care they put into their food. Service was fast and friendly, and the space is super clean and welcoming--a great spot for a casual bite or takeout. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying their poke next. If you're in the area, definitely give them a try and support a great new local business. Highly recommend! read more
