    First time coming here, and it definitely won't be my last! To know I have this amazing spot locally is such a bonus. I met the lovely staff and the owner of Ahola Poke yesterday, and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. They were also very helpful when it came to ordering and explaining the options. I got a poke plate, and to say it was delicious is an understatement you really have to come and experience it for yourself! The rice with the tuna and spicy mayo together was SO good. I also tried the oyster special, and it was such a great combo! Definitely a new local favorite!

    Chicken Jerky
    Sue O.

    The poke was great. I got the ginger ahi and the spicy salmon (which was not very spicy). They were both fresh and flavorful. Unfortunately, everything else was really bad. The chicken looked like it was fried in the morning, cut into pieces, then refried in the afternoon. It was so dry, tough, hard, and inedible. I wish I had looked at it before leaving, because the meat was grey, and you can see that it was old jerky like chicken. Also, the rice had lots of old, hard pieces like it sat in the rice cooker for days. You can see in my pictures clumps of hard, brown rice pieces as well as the dry chicken. So sad since I saw the chicken picture here, and it looked nothing like what I got.

    The food is absolutely fantastic! The food had such a fresh, authentic Hawaiian taste. We were in Carson area and did not know what to expect but were pleasantly surprised by this spot's great combo deals and fish quality. The taste is better than the Americanized versions of poke. As for service, it was a 10/10! Thank you Gabriel and Issey (apologies if I did not spell that right) for being very friendly and welcoming! As new customers, we got to taste test a few poke options. The three must try flavors are the Cali Roll, Spicy mayo, and Hot Crunchy Garlic poke. If you are chasing that authentic Hawaiian, specifically Maui, quality flavor: THIS IS THE SPOT!!! Everybody knows that hole in the wall spots invest in quality and connection with their customers. This is exactly the experience we got. Thank you, Aloha Poke and Grill!

    Solid Poke spot. The staff were lovely and helpful. It's a small spot with only two tables but plenty of parking. It was like being in a local spot in Oahu again. The chicken was overcooked in the Katsu and the teriyaki unfortunately...but the flavors were good. My daughter loved the spam masubi!

    We were in Carson for their Philippine Independence Day celebration and before we went home we found a delicious poke spot we decided to try! Aloha Poke & Grill. It's a small spot, but they give big portions at an affordable price! My fiance ate in the car and really enjoyed our food. I will say I wish we were offered options for sauces for the regular salmon -- as usually I get salmon with ponzu or something that I can pour into it, but we got soy sauce packets so that was ok! The oyster sauce ahi was verrry good, so good that my fiance kept dipping his ahi limu into mine because he wanted a little more pop of flavor to his. Would definitely come back if we were in the area!

    Service was great. Very friendly. However, the poke was just ok. Portion size was very good. Parking semi sucks and is a bit awkward.

    Picked up lunch at around 11:45am on a Monday. Called in my order, so it would be quick. Double bowl. Cali roll. Sweet chili. Crab and seaweed salad for the the toppings. $14.51 total. What a steal! It obviously isn't Hawaiian poke, but it was good and was great for the price. I ended up going again on a Tuesday. They gave me a free drink. Would recommend this place!

    Best poke in the South Bay hands down!!!

    Best poke in the South Bay hand down! Ponzu and spicy mayo are elite! Fresh, dense poke! Great portion for the price!

    Ahi limu with rice and seaweed salad as the topping

    The whole atmosphere was just like home. The lady at the counter was nice the food the vibe everything about this place was 10 out of 10. The portions are big for 13 bucks. You get what you pay for and it ends up making you want more which is what I did. I got an ahi limu Poké bowl with rice with the toppings. I did seaweed I finished it in under three minutes went back in and ordered again. This place needs more recognition. And if you want a sweet treat, they're also doing an Ube with empanada or if you just want like regular ice cream they have a freezer that has multiple flavors. I saw one of them had mango. One of them had Ube and if you don't want to go to seafood city, they also sell some lumpia my overall verdict of this place 100% would come back. This is my new poke spot.

    good poke spot in carson!! the spot is might be easy to miss as you drive by but there is enough parking spaces. the establishment is pretty small so i'd recommend take-out orders. the poke was fresh and it's pretty good considering the price point and the portions that you are getting.

    Tried the Kamaaina plate and was surprised to see the amount of food! The laulau and kalua pork was good. Just the Mac salad was too Mayo-ie and poke was a too salty for me. I still would come back and give it another shot since I see Mondays have a great poke special!

    Portuguese Sausage
    Russ L.

    A newly opened Hawaiian-style poke with a Filipino influence. A small establishment, with a couple tables set up inside. I can imagine most of their business is take out. Food : They specialize in Hawaiian-style poke. I ordered the two flavors poke bowl with regular spicy tuna and with the ginger flavor over two scoops rice with furukaki. This is a big and heavy plate. The two flavors is big enough to share. The poke could use some work unfortunately. The spicy poke was too salty and too much sauce and not allowing the freshness of the tuna come through. Same with the ginger flavor except it was too sweet. They need to let the natural flavor of the tuna be the center and not be heavy of the sauce/flavors. Bonus points for free toppings: I had seaweed salad and ginger. Breakfast : Portuguese Sausage Breakfast with two eggs and rice. The Portuguese sausage was just too salty for my taste. Next time, I'll order longanisa instead. Three STARS for the service. The auntie that was at the counter was friendly, and warm. Also the portion size was very generous and the price is affordable. You get your money's worth. I will come and order something else next time. Let's continue to patronize small business in the area.

One was shoyu, and the other was limu; both had umami flavors. I was so glad that the shoyu didn't have a hint of sweetness and that the limu wasn't too salty. The savory seasoning/marinade and cool temp made the poke a very satisfying and refreshing meal. I also asked for rice and mac salad for my to-go plate, and those were solid complements to the poke. It's a chill, fast-casual place with Hawaiian tropical decor and a few dine-in tables. The plaza it's in is kinda small and janky, but at least parking is free. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd love to drop by for their poke.

We made the drive out to Torrance just to check it out and take home the Paradise cake for a birthday celebration. I would liken the experience to being at a Hawaiian version of Porto's. We loved their lava bulgogi kimchi udon and Hawaiian mixed plate, although the mixed plate could use a much bigger scoop of rice (we ordered an extra scoop on the side $2). Their dessert selection is robust, with options ranging from cakes and pies to cream puffs and mochi donuts. There's something for every sweet tooth! Highly recommend for a special celebration or just a relaxing day out! There's also an option for getting on the Yelp waitlist online so you can get ahead of any wait. :)

This spot is small, casual in the best way, the kind of place where you walk in stressed from work and walk away knowing the food will comfort you. The moment you step in, you get that "bro, relax" energy. No crazy décor, no weird mood lighting, no host judging your outfit. Just good food, good vibes, and the faint spiritual presence of someone whispering "aloha, braddah." It's the type of place where you can roll in wearing gym shorts, flip‑flops, or your "I woke up late" face and nobody blinks. Service here is like being adopted into a Hawaiian family you didn't know you had.

They hand you your food like they're handing you a blessing. I swear one plate winked at me. Listen... the food is delish. The kalua pork and beef is so tender it should come with a warning label. The teriyaki chicken tastes like it was marinated in the tears of happy island angels. And the mac salad? Bro... that mac salad could solve arguments, reunite families, and end global beef. Portions are generous, like "I didn't need all this but I'm absolutely finishing it" generous. Miguel C.
