    Poke Combo with Kalua Pig
    Chelsea B.

    As a local here the poke was very good, fresh and was one of my favorite poke spots in Kahuku a couple of months ago. But the past 2 recent times I went, the poke has been very chewy, hard texture and doesn't taste fresh (more like frozen). Its unfortunate and I hope the consistency of the fish goes back to being more fresh.

    Got the Hawaiian poke bowl, fish was very fresh, nice spice to it. (Only $12) My son got the Kalua pig bowl (on special for $10) said it was his favorite of the trip so far. Service was fast, super good aloha vibe. Anytime I can eat outside under and umbrella makes me happy.

    I've tried everything on menu and food is always great. Good service as well. My favorite is the spicy poke nachos and squid luau/ kalua pig/ lau lau combo...

    Heard about these guys about a week ago. Wife and I went out north so we stopped on our way back. The located in the parking lot of waikane church with lots of parking. Wife and I tried the fat poi plate, the only thing was the was out of lau lau. But the food is tasty and made just right. The Kalua wasn't salty like some people make it, the squid luau was very good. Try um out and support local!

    Ahi Poke Bowl Hawaiian Style
    Amy K.

    The Hawaiian style poke was EXCELLENT! I don't usually stop mid meal to review food on Yelp but people should definitely try this place. Great flavor from the fish, a nice touch of hot sauce, a little sweetness, and good portion size for the price too. Yum

    Awesome poke bowls! Fish is fresh and the spicy sauce was winnaz. Tastes freshly made, they even add crispy fried onions on top. Super tasty! Happy PCC gained a good place to eat. Live nearby and will definitely be back

    A delicious food truck.

I would've immediately noticed that the fish is NOT worth eating. I'm starving. We are in a flash flood watch. I forced myself to give it a shot, & immediately was filled with regret as I spit it back out. It was disgusting & my "limu poke," wasn't even POKE. It was straight up mush. I'm even second-guessing if it was even ahi. I've never seen poke like that before, how it immediately disintegrated while using my chopsticks to pick it up. Not even the kine that is made to be patty style. I know it's previously frozen, but I have no idea what that was. On top of all of that there was a black hair in my poke. ** As seen in the photo ** My mouth dropped open when I saw the reviews of people raving about how good it is.... then I clicked on their profiles & saw they're all tourist, so of course they like it. As a local, do NOT waste your money. My food went straight in the trash. There's actually no good poke places on this side...even the Tamura's Hau'ula is the worst one on the island. I need to drive all the way to Kaneohe to Kbay Bros to get decent poke smh.

    This place is PHENOMENAL. I could eat here every day. I love just how insanely fresh their fish is,…read moreand also how they prepare it. My parents like their ahi katsu, while I like their mahi mahi tacos and mahi mahi plate the most. The best kept secret is their Poisson Cru-- it was so good that I wanted it for dinner the exact same day that I ate it for lunch. The service is to-go only and you order at the counter. Ken is usually the one taking orders. He's fast and efficient and will not be making small talk or smiling at the customers, but he sure runs an incredible business. There is a sign in the place that says takeout only, you cannot eat there. However, they do have benches for customers to sit on while they wait for their food to be prepared. The mahi mahi tacos take a while for them to make; so just be prepared for longer wait times if you order those. It's really worth the wait, though! Since the place is takeout only, all I can say for the ambiance is that it's focused on efficiency and cleanliness, rather than on fancy decor or a certain look.

The fresh ahi katsu, huge! 14-16oz, panko crusted and deep fried medium or well done. It is topped with a combo of sweet katsu sauce and garlic mayo all over a bed of rice and a simple pile of dressed lettuce. Always look for the second fresh fish of the day. If available, the ono done katsu style eclipses the ahi. Just the nature of the fish, it is more tender and moist. Total weight is again, about a pound. Note: Fish can also be prepared in garlic butter. It's good but come on, garlic butter vs deep fried in a crispy coating? Good selection of half pound pre weighed containers of fresh ahi poke (ahi sesame ogo, just sayin') and fresh fish filets including ahi, mahi, ono, and marlin. Go early for best selection. Inexpensive. As of November 2025, $16/regular plate. Fresh fish filets, $7.50 / lb less than Costco. Fresh poke, $10/half pound. Cash or card. Same price. No nonsense counter service. Takeaway only. IMPORTANT: they are not active on socials. Last minute closures are posted on their door. Have a backup plan of where to eat ready. All that said, the best and based on the crowd of locals every visit, word is out.

My personal favorite is the kalbi ribs. They've got that backyard BBQ taste that feels like a homecooked meal, and it's usually what I end up ordering. Simple, comforting, and it just hits. I also love grabbing food here and taking it down the street to eat at the beach. It's one of those meals that feels even better when you're eating it by the water. I just read that they may be closing soon, and if that's true, thank you for all the delicious meals over the years and wishing the team nothing but the best moving forward.

The kalbi and pulehu are just about the same cuts of meats just a different marinade and you get to choose how you want it cooked. We got it medium rare. Kalbi is more like a sweeter Korean bbq and pulehu more smoky bbq. Meat was good and tender and shrimp was a nice creamy taste. Getting a bite of everything with the Mac salad is a must! Only downside is I tried to phone order in advance knowing they would be busy but I couldn't get the phone call through. We had to order once we got there and there was about an 1.5 hour wait for our order. The area is a dead zone for phone service so although they'll call to let you know your order is ready, you may not receive the call. But the wait was expected so we decided to go hang around the beach while waiting. There was a line of people wanting to order. I'd recommend to go early in the morning while they still have everything in stock because we got there at about 10:45AM and they had just sold out of their peanut butter rolls! It is cash only as well. Sad to see the business go but happy there is a lot of locals supporting them, giving fond farewells and wishing the Papa Ole's ohana the best!

It came with two onion rings and pineapple. Beef patty had a nice smoke flavor. We also ordered a side of onion rings and paniolo. Highly recommend Paniolo; it came with crispy fries (looks like thinly sliced potatoes), bbq sauce and onion rings. I thought food was good. A few ppl in my group thought the burger patty was kind of dry. The decor was cute and beach themed. Overall, customer service was friendly when we were ordering. I noticed a few workers were going around checking on folks and having long conversations but they didn't come to us so whatever. They have clean bathrooms in the back. Plenty of parking available!
