    Loco Moco and Chili Garlic Chicken
    Peter T.

    I don't know what happened but the food here was gross, not sure what it was but years ago this place was amazing, the gravy for the loco move was disgusting, the chicken was cooked well but the flavor was weird, I also ordered the ahi poke and even that wasn't up to par from what I had years ago. And the outdoor tables there were disgusting.

    The fried chicken here is bomb. It's so flavorful and tatstes so good honestly probably top 3 fried chicken I've ever had. It's a small little store inside is cool has pictures of customers on the wall. The service was okay the girl in the front came off a little aggressive rather than welcoming kinda seemed like she wanted us out asap but other than really good chicken.

    I wish they had half rating options. The spicy garlic CPC is a must. Docking half though because sometimes the chicken isnt as juicy and sometimes (like yesterday) it's super moist. Their poke is surprisingly good too and I typically get it when I can. Super traditional tasting.

    Shrimp plate and garlic chicken
    Arcadia W.

    I came here 30 minutes before they closed, which wasn't the brightest idea but I needed something quick and close. I ordered a plate of the garlic shrimp with a side of the garlic chicken and the shrimp was great. The sauce and rice had wonderful flavor, but the star of the show which was the garlic chicken was not fresh. Unfortunately, the chicken tasted as if it sat out for quite some time. It had a very hard and stale crunch, not an airy crispy crunch that I was hoping for. I'll definitely come back to give them another try during the middle part of their day, hopefully next time I will get fresh chicken.

    The ahi tuna poke bowl is massive. This is large. Comes with rice, squid, and seaweed.

    I didn't think a shopping plaza occupied predominately by Target and its parking lot would feature some amazing Hawaiian food on the outskirts of this space. Located in a tiny sliver of a space in a row of other small businesses is a delicious restaurant serving some incredible Hawaiian food better eaten to go or on your car (yes, on, not in). This is Da Hawaiian Kitchen. Interior Inside is a small hallway leading up to the counter. There is a lot going on with multiple pictures on one wall, hand written menu on the other, and a large whiteboard with more menu items behind the register. It's a lot to take in so you'll have to take a moment to orient yourself. Once you decide what you want you'll order the food, pay, and wait outside for your number to be called. Seating There is no interior seating and outside only has two picnic tables with umbrellas to provide shade. If you're lucky you'll get those seats, although the umbrellas only cover so much. You'll see lots of people taking food home or eating on their cars where there's shade from a tree just a little ways away in the parking lot. Price For Hawaiian food, it's a bit expensive. For example, their popular fried chicken sandwich, the CPC Sandwich, is $8.64, their Loco Moco is $17, and their plate lunches can range from $16-24. Food I found all the food to be filled with flavor and fresh. Even though you see their poke on display when you receive it the fish is tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Served over rice and the sweet and briny flavors become accentuated bursts of tastiness in your mouth. The CBC Sandwich is crispy, rich in flavor with their spicy garlic sauce, and the brioche bun just continues the whole package of tastes. The different textures all work well, just as the different flavors do. It is harmony in each bite. The crispy crinkled fries are also a wonderful textural bite. Seasoned with salt and this will remind you of afternoon's after school with friends while listening to KROQ. Make sure to ask them for sauce to dip it in. The Loco Moco is massive and delicious. An island favorite, their version is memorable as they actually season their beef patties, an oversight many other loco mocos are guilty of. Smothered in their brown gravy over three scoops of rice, a combo macaroni/potato salad, and eggs anyway you like this is an island dish that'll fill you up completely. Verdict Da Hawaiian Kitchen is a great choice for looking for that fix to your Hawaiian food craving. Delivering on all fronts, from flavor to texture, you'll leave happy, satisfied, and full.

    Small hole-in-the-wall business! It wasn't too busy when we ordered, but the wait was about 15-20 minutes. The food is very fresh, though I'd say the fried chicken was a bit too sweet for my liking. I really enjoyed the spam musubi and macaroni salad.

    Chicken was mid at best. A bit pink inside
    Ray H.

    Food was not good IMO. I came here for the spicy garlic chicken it was barely edible. Chicken was a bit pink inside. There is a couple of people here posting their chicken plates not being fully cooked. The rice and mac was average. There is no inside seating. Only two picnic style tables outside in the hot sun. Customer service was good but i will not return. Food rating 6.5\10

    Spicy garlic chicken
    Zar N.

    This place is cracking good!!! Hands down best fried chicken!! Spicy garlic is the best flavor. I got 2 pieces meal and it can feed 2 people. Chicken is huge!! Really love their macaroni salad. They have a few tables outside for seating. Plenty of parking. Very friendly staffs. Definitely will go back when I'm in the area!!

    I've been craving local food and went looking for a place that had combo plates and found this one. We arrived maybe 20 minutes after they opened so there was no line and we received our food pretty quickly. They do not have seating inside, but they have tables with umbrellas outside. When it's hot like it was today, going early and sitting under the umbrellas really help. Loco Moco: it was standard but I ordered the eggs over easy and one egg was over hard and another closer to over medium. Combo Plate with CPC (spicy garlic) and kalua pig: the CPC was soo crispy and good. Not spicy at all though. If you like Zippys KFC, you'll like the CPC. The kalua pig was dry and a little saltier. Their Mac salad is unique, better than the traditional Hawaiian Mac salad imo. & the portions were a decent size. I'd come back and get the CPC again. I also saw they had poke so I would try that next time. I do wish they had more options, but still decent for what they have.

    Spicy Garlic Chicken Plate with all mac
    Kimberly P.

    [ Food ] We ordered the Spicy Garlic Chicken Plate and the large Poke Bowl (traditional); the chicken was good and moist, but the poke was so salty... The mac salad was decent. The food was pretty pricey for what it was. [ Service ] Customer service was alright. [ Parking ] There's ample parking in front of the shop.

    8.6.25- chili peppa chicken with two scoops of rice and potato Mac salad
    Kim I.

    We will make the drive to this hidden gem because of just how delish their food is. We came back from Kauai not too long ago and craved chili peppa chicken from when we had it there.. this did not disappoint in anyway. The spicy garlic shrimp was mouthwatering and I'm so glad they have it daily. Service was excellent, our gal was so sweet and giving us tips on what to order. We had to get the large lilikoi juice and the homemade reece's peanut butter cookies and mac nut cookies, my goodness was that so rich and soft. The area around it has only two tables outside with shade so really it's a more grab and go spot but hey still worth the drive. We will be coming back as often as we can when we are nearby

    CPC Boneless Chicken
    Jennifer T.

    The lady who helped us out was very nice and friendly! She was patient with us as this was our first time here. The food was amazing!!! The chicken was so crispy and had so much flavor. I usually don't like wasabi flavored things but the poke was really good! The worker let us sample the different kind of pokes that they had as well (which is a plus in my books). I would definitely be back!!

    Big J.

    The chicken had a great, crunchy skin that was packed with flavor. The meat itself was decent and well cooked. The rice was nice and warm--neither soggy nor undercooked--. The mac salad was decent as well. Overall, the food was not bad at all. If I'm in the area, I would definitely stop by again to try something else on the menu Yesah

    I like buy your ishiki garlic sauce. I live in Oahu. How can I get some?

    Oh gosh, I don't know but I'm sure if you call the restaurant they would be able to help you with that. Sorry

My cousin recommended this place to me during my last visit to Huntington Beach. He was very positive as well as satisfied with the food and the service of North Shore Poke. Their overall service was undoubtedly very good, but the taste and quality of the food were the only aspects that left me disappointed! I went to North Shore Poke Co. for lunch on March 28, 2026 after my visit to Huntington Beach. The place was moderately crowded the time I got in. The interior is nicely designed, capturing a traditional Hawaiian vibe. I chose the custom poke bowl - a small bowl with Rice and Salad, topped with three Hawaiian sauces (Traditional Shoyu, Spicy Mayo, and Spicy Shoyu), along with Ahi Tuna, Salmon, and extras like Cucumber, Masago, and Furikake. I also added Fresh Spicy Tuna and Seaweed Salad, which cost an additional $4.50! What disappointed me most was being charged for the Seaweed Salad, as many other poke spots typically include it as a complimentary topping. Their service was fast, and my small poke bowl was served within 5 minutes. The portion size felt underwhelming, considering the price I paid. The taste was also below average. They claim that their fish is "Fresh", my poke bowl unfortunately didn't reflect that. Most concerning of all, the Fresh Spicy Tuna seemed spoiled and had a very unpleasant smell! When I informed them, they promptly replaced the Fresh Spicy Tuna with Blue Crab. But by that time, I had lost my appetite due to the incident and could barely finish my poke bowl. North Shore Poke Co. might be one of the top poke spots in Huntington Beach, but I would still rank The Poke Place in Rancho Cucamonga and Ahipoki Bowl in Rialto well above it. Most likely I'm not coming back to this place again!

I always order the #6 with the short ribs, chicken, macaroni salad, and rice. Normally I get double macaroni salad because it's hands down my favorite part of the meal. The macaroni salad is so good, perfectly cooked with that ideal al dente texture, creamy, flavorful, and well seasoned. I could honestly eat a whole bowl of just that. The short ribs are delicious too. Whatever marinade they use has amazing flavor and the meat is always tender and satisfying. The chicken itself is pretty simple and doesn't have a super strong flavor, but it's always cooked well and pairs nicely with everything else on the plate. Overall, it's just good quality food all around. I usually order delivery, but this was my first time actually going inside for pickup. The restaurant had a really cool atmosphere and everything looked clean and organized. There were customers dining in, a few people waiting in line, and the employees were working efficiently as a team. The pickup process was quick and easy. I walked up, they asked if I was there for pickup, I gave my name, they repeated it back, handed me my food, and I was out the door within minutes. I've tried other Hawaiian BBQ spots before, but this one is by far my favorite, which is exactly why I keep coming back here instead of going anywhere else. Definitely looking forward to my next order. Highly recommend if you want flavorful, satisfying Hawaiian barbecue.
