Then they forgot the sauce and never asked if we liked the food. The service was bad. But now to the good points: the food was good and so was the interior. We will give it another try some time. Maybe the waitress was new and you never know... also the menu has a lot to offer and we want to try more

I read in the local newspaper about this new spot that brings Obama's favorite dish to Munich…read more Always open for new culinary experiences I planned to visit this spot with a colleague tomorrow evening. Now I was so curious that I already made a visit today. The place is definitely well chosen, being so close to the university and in one of the food hotspots of Munich. The guests are an interesting mix of the hip and creative young generation and open minded people in their best age. The typical "firsties" you find at all newly opened restaurants all over Munich and I'm not meaning this in a negative way. The Hawaiian poke was excellent. I can not compare it with the one they serve in Hawaii but I liked the mix of soft and crunchy, sweet and spicy. I had a mixture of rare tuna, salmon and octopus cubes together with shrimps, spring onions, nuts, chilies, avocado, mango, goji berries and roasted sesame seeds in a peanut sauce on a bed of rice. What impressed me especially was, that even 15 minutes before closing the ingredients were extremely fresh. They store it in quite small containers obviously causing the kitchen to prepare the ingredients multiple times per day. As a drink I chose the Peach Ice Tea by "Elephant Bay". Never seen this brand before, but liked the taste with strong peach and not too much sugar. Service was great even at the end of a definitely long workday. Being the first with this Hawaiian classic dish I would not be surprised if they would introduce another Hawaiian classic, "Shave Ice", to Munich. It is a block of water ice that is carved or shaved to snow on special machines and is then flavored with different tasting colored sirups. This would be a great dessert after a poke bowl and a refreshing pick me up during the summer. I am sure, we will see more creative ideas by the founders of this new location and I am already curious how the "Aloha Poke" will develop.

Terrible. I'm going to preface this by saying that I lived in the Pacific Northwest for 20 years…read moreand have been to Hawaii many many times. Nowhere in Germany will you find poke that's comparable even to what you'd buy at a Safeway or Foodland in Hawaii, at least if tuna is your thing. German poke is basically a salad served on a bed of rice, with a couple ounces of crouton sized chunks of fish, tofu, or meat (turkey is an option here; this alone should probably serve as enough of a warning). You can order from a menu, or build your own. I did the latter. I got a few chunks of tuna and a bunch of vegetables, served on a bed of soggy rice, with some sickeningly sweet sauce drizzled on top (honey soy?). Obviously, Germany is far from the world's prime tuna fishing grounds, so you need to lower your expectations, but the stuff I was served was disgusting: Soggy, mushy, flavorless. Yuck! The place had a fairly long line at lunchtime, which I'd attribute to the fact that Germans have no idea what poke is supposed to taste like. And I guess the bowls are very colorful, and hence instagramable. If you want to watch students take pictures of their food, this may be your place, but please don't come here for poke. You'd do marginally better at Fishbowl near Viktualienmarkt, but I think the hard truth is that in Munich, you'll have to do it yourself. Buy some tuna at Poseidon, cut it up, mix with shoyu, sesame oil, some onions, a little spice. And be glad you never set foot in this terrible store.

It was very tasty and when back in Munich I'm hoping to go back to Aloha. I loved that there was outdoor seating to sit and chill. The restaurant was busy and I managed to find seating outside.
