    Extensive choices on the menu board!

    Too busy eating to take photos of the delicious food! Our multi-family group tried almost everything on the menu -- and enjoyed it all. Proteins were all tasty, the Macaroni Salad and Island Spring Mix were great, Veggies were fresh, Guava Pie was yummy, etc. Friendly service is a definite plus and the dining area was clean and well-organized. Highly recommend!

    This is a go-to every time we visit Big Bear because there is nothing else like it. There's just a…read morevibe here with super friendly staff, funky music and even funkier decor. You're part of the fam as soon as you walk in through the giant shark mouth. It can be a little overwhelming for a first time visitor with its mix of regulars and first timers. There is a winding line that jumps across the main aisle when it gets long, and sometimes goes out the door on busy days. Just ask anyone and they'll help you figure it out. They all had that same experience their first time in this non-traditional order system. The bro behind the bar will invite you to order a drink while you wait in line to order your food, which you can also do at one of the kiosks after the line jump. When you get to the front, you order from one of three giant screens you scroll through to pick your food and drinks, pay with your card and wait for the staff to tell you your order has washed up on the beach. I've tried several of their bows but have settled on the Pele bowl, usually with a cucumber base and only one scoop of rice. They have beef, chicken and ahi in a wide variety of flavors, and again, if you're not sure, ask a staff member and they're happy to help you through the process. They have small waffles as a base option but I have not tried those. I'm sure they're good. There is a reason they're consistently ranked one of the top restaurants nationwide -- yes, poke on a mountain top -- unlike anywhere else you may have it.

    Since my last visit they moved into a new location which is a big upgrade! It's a super fun, quirky…read more(you literally walk in through a shark's mouth), awesome tropical vibe and has way more interior and exterior seating than their old location. When you enter, you order on a touchscreen and then they'll call your name and/or number for your drinks first then your food and you walk up to the counter, get your food and then sit wherever you want - like at In&Out! I highly recommend getting their smoothies since they are DELICIOUS! Think tropical blended drinks but without the alcohol. So refreshing and you can still do the curvy drive up/down the mountain! Their poke bowls aren't as amazing as I remember sadly. They are a little too over the top in terms of strong thick sauces and bold overpowering flavors. Their pulled pork bowl was still yummy though despite all of their rice in all of our 3 bowls being a little undercooked (I prefer the fluffy sticky rice) So 5 stars for ambiance, 5 stars for service, 5 stars for drinks and 3.5 stars for food imho. Too bad I can't give 4.5 stars.
