    Their service was so friendly! Our food was made so quickly and it was tasty! I got the Garlic Spice and Cali Hawaiian. My favorite was the Cali Hawaiian.

    my boyfriend found this spot by chance and we couldn't believe how good the poke was! the poke is definitely more authentic unlike a lot the businesses in the area. i always get the garlic spice flavor and highly recommend it if you enjoy spicy food! :)

    I wanted to try this poke after I read others review but the fish quality is not as good as people describe. I tried spicy garlic and spicy mayo with both ahi tuna and salmon. both were salty and I tasted fishly smell. But the service was great and friendly and they gave me free sample to try another flavor! I might went on a bad day but I don't think I'll go back.

    Delicious poke from the nicest people! It was so good I came two days in a row. I tried their sweet&spicy with tuna and salmon and their spicy mayo salmon and I really enjoyed having both flavors in one plate. The spicy mayo is definitely spicier than what you would get at other poke places around but so yummy and flavorful. Less expensive than "build your bowl" style poke bowls with more fish as opposed to toppings. I can't wait to try more flavors soon :)

    I have been waiting for this place to open after many years. They used to be called Poke Etc. Located in Cerritos. This is the only poke place I have been consistently going to in SoCal. I would always get their poke bowl with spicy mayo salmon and cali Hawaiian tuna. I believe those are the best flavors there for me. The cali Hawaiian is very creamy and spicy mayo has an addicting salty taste. Their fish always tastes fresh and chewy for me, the perfect texture. They are run by a mother and son duo, the mom is very sweet and nice, the son very handsome and charismatic. I highly recommend 11/10!

    Aloha plate

    Would like to gatekeep but also need everyone to try this place Got the aloha plate which comes with kahlua pork, rice, and one flavor of poke. I got spicy mayo salmon and a side of seaweed salad. Service was great! They gave me a small sample of the sweet & spicy flavor and it paired perfectly with the spicy mayo . Everything was so good and fresh! Can't wait to come back and try all the flavors. They are located in the Action Sales parking lot across the street from The District next to the construction site.

    Ahi and Salmon Poke

    The poke quality is top tier! Great quality and flavor of fish and even better sauces! Owners are super nice! Definitely recommend and new go-to spot for poke

    This spot is so delicious! The fish was fresh and the pork had a smoky, yummy flavor. The sweet and spicy tuna was my favorite!

    We're so glad they are so close to where we live! Their poke is so fresh and reminds us of Hawaii. We usually get spicy mayo, cali Hawaiian and just recently tried the sweet and spicy. It's all so good and flavorful. Seaweed salad is great. Staff is so friendly. We will be coming back often!

    The day of my visit was last Sunday 2/15/26. I discovered this Hawaiian food truck on youtube from youtuber Rockstareater. The food truck offers poke by the pound or half pound, poke bowls, and plates. The two types of fish used are Salmon and Ahi with as many as 20 different poke flavors. I ordered the Halona Plate which comes with one scoop of white rice, one scoop of poke I chose sweet and spicy, a generous portion of kalua pork and one piece of lau lau which is kalua pork and salmon mixed together into a leaf and cooked. All came out to $18 and change. The customer service was excellent. The truck was ran by a young man and a older woman I believe to be his mother. She walked us through the menu and her son recommended the Halona Plate and even gave us a poke sample of CA style. Overall the food was good. Poke was fresh, rice was moist, and pork was flavorful. I did like the flavor and taste of the lau lau by it was dry. I probably wouldn't order it again. The mother mentioned they had a brick and mortar store in Artesia/Cerritos but converted to a food truck due to increasing rent. I would return and recommend.

    Some of the best birria I have ever had! I really love the consistency of this location and the…read morefact that they take phone orders makes it even more convenient to plan ahead. The Raza box ($25) and monster box ($35) are my usual go to menu items, as they have an assortment of tacos and quesadilla. The taco is made with one corn tortilla that seems to have been dipped in consome beforehand and have a good amount of cheese and birria ratio. The quesadilla is packed with birria meat and the consome is the perfect pairing for all the items. I've seen specials occasionally on Instagram so it's worth to follow their page to get updates on their food truck status. Their location recently changed and it's in a not so convenient part of the business park, but the food is still great and their communication with customers should help with any new updates. I also recommend the green salsa, it has a slight kick and great flavor!

    Wow! I am in love with this birria truck. First things first, the address on Yelp is not the right…read moreone. They're not there anymore. They're at 16592 Hale Ave, Irvine. By the District. Make sure you go to the right location. There's plenty of street parking. It is a truck, so no seats or tables, but that's not an issue, just eat in your car LOL. Now the food....one of the best birria I've had. I ordered 2 crunchy tacos with cheese. They were sooooo good. Perfect amount of cheese, meat and the tortilla was crispy just how I like it. The consome, wow! It was very flavorful, tasted like actual consome. Other places it'll either taste like too many condiments/spices or watered down. This one though was 100% consome. I don't dip my tacos, I sip on my consome, so I did add a little lime, but still was able to taste how good the actual broth was. I didn't try the green salsa, but my bf liked it, he said it wasn't spicy. The red one, I did try, and it was perfect for me. It has a little kick at first, but then it's not too bad. Really good salsa though. Highly recommend the red for the tacos. They also have Mexican sodas, Coke, Sprite, Jarritos, and I forgot what else. The service is great. Didn't get his name, but he was really nice and friendly. We just went yesterday, but planning on going back today.

    This year's 6 to 6 event at the Orange County Fairgrounds seem to have less vendors both on the…read morefood side and on the product side. The plus side this time around is that they have a completely covered area to eat your food. Picnic benches are laid out with a full awning. Parking is still great. Prices have gone up for both the tickets and parking so be prepared to pay $15 for parking and $15 to get inside. Services dependent on what vendor you buy your food from some will accommodate the request and others will not. Of course if there's no accommodation to the customer, they've lost my business.

[Parking]: $15 per vehicle for on-site parking just to enter the OC Fair & Event Center. [Admission]: Our party purchased the same-day tickets and paid a $16 per person entry fee. [What to expect]: The market was approximately half food vendors and half arts / crafts / gift vendors. There were solid craft and gift vendors, but not too many art vendors. The food was extremely overpriced ... a simple appetizer = at least $15+ & a filling meal = at least $25. The only real positive? There was a mahjong area that offered free lessons. The performance stage was alright. [Food]: Our party ended up getting only 6 pieces of soup dumplings (aka XLB) from Dumpling Dream for $14 and a cup of gelatea from Boutcha for $7.20 (one of the most affordable and best item to get at the market). [Conclusion]: If I ever come back to 626 Night Market, I would probably stick with the Arcadia location as parking is free and the admission fee is slightly cheaper. I am still having a hard time digesting the fact that getting into the market cost $30+ before even buying any food if I come here alone and I would also need to spend another $25+ just to feel like I had eaten a legit meal. I am good with this one-and-done visit.
