Since it is located on the 5th floor of Kamppi Square and has floor to ceiling windows, the views are reeeeal nice. The boyfriend and I came for lunch at 11:30am on a Friday and were seated without a reservation after we placed our order and paid at the counter. I tried the Kalua Pork & Tiger Prawns (14€) while the boyfriend went with the Salmon Teriyaki (15€) after reading the glowing reviews on here. The Kalua Pork dish was super tasty and had more broth than I was expecting; I was glad it came with a bowl of rice. The salmon was SO moist with a teriyaki sauce that wasn't too overbearing! Needless to say we finished both our dishes without a bite to spare. The portions are medium-sized. If you come starving, it may not be enough to make you feel 100% satiated. However, the sophisticated atmosphere and unique & flavorful dishes made Hoku a great experience.

On dinner-time you have to make a reservation if you are coming with big groupie or 2 people. For 1 person...

Better than some ramen places in the States. But also, not as good as some places. It's basically a…read more"good ramen quickly" sort of place... but I guess all ramen technically is? I came here with the intent of getting take-away. Then I thought, the inside is nice, maybe I can just sit... but I wanted take-away, because I was on a roll with my writing and couldn't interrupt that process. I love the fact they will separate the broth from the ingredients if you do take-away. The cutlery (namely the spoon) isn't great for ramen, but you take away what you can get when you get take away. The spicy one isn't very spicy to my palette, but the flavor was good. Didn't love everything in the bowl, but overall I thought it was pretty good and I would likely eat here again.

I tried their Korean fried chicken (KFC) and I'd say it is quite "interesting"... it just lacked the sweetness and crispiness that you would expect from the genuine one but it took an edge off of my craving for real KFC at least. However, the portion is HUGE for a 10 euro dish ; It comes with 5 whole chicken wings and your choice of coconut rice or egg noodles. I barely finished half by myself. The noodle was just plain and tasteless. I suspect they just boil it without any seasoning. It was also a bit too soggy since it's not cooked to order. I gotta mention that the kimchi was actually spot on and authentic-tasting! I would recommend this place for a quick and cheap eats if you happen to be hungry while in Kamppi.
