    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!!!
    Cosette R.

    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.

I don't remember everything that was in it, but I know it had mango and strawberries. The only downside was that it melted super fast. By the time we got back to the car, there was already juice collecting at the bottom of the cup. Even with that, it was delicious. I ended up finishing the whole thing, which I definitely wasn't expecting. It was so hot outside, and it ended up being the perfect refreshing drink.

Sometimes you crave a quick pasta meal but think your only choice is a sit-down restaurant. Pasta Stories is a fast-casual spot in the Tokyo Central food court. The process is simple: step up to the counter; order and pay on a tablet device; and grab a seat in the food court. They'll call you when your meal is ready. I tried the "Osaka," spaghetti with Wagyu beef meat sauce. The pasta was al dente, and the sauce was flavorful but lighter than most restaurants--less salty, with more subtle flavors. Browsing the menu, you'll find all the meals competitively priced compared to fast-food combos. However, each bowl is made to order and leans more toward scratch cooking than the processed fare you'd get at a fast-food restaurant. One last thing: I tend to avoid ordering pasta to go because if the kitchen isn't careful, ithe pasta keeps cooking and soaking up moisture during the commute. That's not a problem here. When they know it's a takeout order, they adjust their cooking and package the pasta nicely. The bottom line is you won't end up with soggy pasta when you get home.

    Pasta Stories is a food stand located inside Tokyo Central at Pacific Coast Hwy & Hawthorne (close…read moreto Rolling Hills Estates). Each pasta is inspired by a different region of Japan and this is one of the few places in Los Angeles / Orange County that serves fast casual Japanese pasta. [Parking]: Plenty of parking spots within the parking plaza. [Ordering]: Customers place an order via a kiosk and pick up their order at the counter. [Menu]: The most classic pasta is Napolitan Spaghetti (Yokohama). Yelp's top highlighted dishes are Wagyu Beef (Osaka), Seafood Pasta (Ehime), and Matcha Cream (Kyoto). *** "Kyoto" Matcha Cream (Chicken - $15.50) & "Osaka" American Wagyu Beef Meat Sauce ($15.50): I personally liked Kyoto better than Osaka as the Kyoto pasta tasted a bit creamier with the matcha cream. Osaka was not bad, but it was not my favorite flavor profile. Each portion was just right so don't expect any leftovers to bring back home. *** Honestly I can see myself revisiting here and cycling through their menu. A solid Japanese pasta spot for anyone to stop by without breaking the bank.

It's literally like eating grandma's food when youre a young child. The spicy tuna came out first and we were shocked at how delicious the fish was. There wasn't a lot of rice which I appreciated and that fish had a bit of a kick. Pair that with some wasabi shoyu and you're tasting some real goodness. The spam musubi was solid with the furikake. My only gripe was that it had a bit too much rice which could have been better balanced with a thicker slice of spam. Regardless, it was solid. Now the star was the chicken combo. Boy oh boy, that Ladybug Fried Chicken was amazing. The batter had so much flavor and added to the juicy chicken. Pair that with you salad and mac salad.. oh my.. youre tasting a slice of Heaven! Fair warning, there is some grinded celery in the mac salad, so if youre allergic then let them know. Otherwise, that aroma of celery added so much depth to the mac. I can't emphasize enough, there is so much love in the food and the servers take gooooood care of you. It was also amazing to see how much attention to detail the owners put in the restaurant. There is ladybug decor all throughout the place and hand drawn papers from customers. It was really neat to see how much love they receive from their customers.

My total before tip/tax was $12.50, which is amazing for the quality and portion! Other than base + protein, the bowls also come with pickled veggies, kimchi, broccoli, and a side of their green (cilantro jalapeno) sauce. The wait was reasonable considering they were also finishing up a pretty large order when I came in. All of the flavors worked so well! I was particularly surprised with the green sauce-I've had it with so many other cuisines but never thought to pair it with Korean food. The bowl was filling while still feeling healthy and nutritious. I will say the spicy chicken really isn't spicy (the kimchi is much spicier by comparison), so I would love for spice levels to be ramped up a bit.
