    Super combo plate with kalbi ribs, spicy garlic chicken, BBQ beef and char siu with rice and mac salad.
    Kate L.

    We went to Pacific Rim Hawaiian and Poké in Mesa last night, because they are opening up their Surprise location very soon and we wanted to try it beforehand! This might be the BEST Hawaiian food I have ever had. It was SO good. We both got combo plates: mine was with katsu, char siu, spicy garlic chicken, and BBQ beef; my husband got the same, except instead of katsu, he got kalbi ribs. It was fantastic! All of the meats tasted so good, the mac salad was delicious and everything has top tier quality and taste. But I think my favorite and the star of the show is the poké. We tried two different kinds: a half pound of Hawaiian style (right) and a half pound of fried crunchy garlic (left). OMG it was heavenly! Such fresh fish and amazing flavors. I absolutely LOVED them both and wanted to eat pounds of it if I could. I want to try ALL the flavors! They had about six different poké flavors and indicated that the Surprise location would have way more, roughly double that and I am so excited about that. They also have bento boxes, burgers, poke bowls, lumpia, spam musubi (including deep fried), and an assortment of desserts. They also do weekly rotating specials; this week was loco moco specials and there were a lot of different ones to try. Chef Blaise Aki came to our table and chatted with us and he is awesome. Takes pride in his food and his customer service (which was top notch, by the way). He is an awesome chef and his food is amazing! Such a good experience and I cannot WAIT until they are in Surprise!

    Casual vibe in this Mesa neighborhood offering Hawaiian cuisine. The cashier was helpful in explaining the menu. I tried a combo platter for 20$ offering three types of meat. Teriyaki beef, Kalbi ribs and char sui chicken. The char sui chicken stood out most. With its unique Chinese flavors. It instantly took me back to my favorite childhood Chinese restaurant. The beef and rib quality, I was not a fan of. Now the Mac salad needed a little more creaminess to it, it was kind dry. The steamed riced well it was steamed rice.The proteins lay on a bed of shredded cabbage slaw as garnish. I personally would like to see just cabbage, thicker cut and steamed. When I do have a craving for that Char Sui chicken I will be back.

    I wish I could give them more stars! If you love Authentic Hawaiian food this is the place!! We ordered their Pacific Rim combo and the Chicken Katsu, also tried spam musubi and lumpia's....all of it was so amazing!! I 100% recommend this place! They were super friendly and from Hawaii themselves, definitely the Aloha vibe you will love! We will be back! I could eat this everyday!! Mahalo!

    Stopped by for labor day weekend to get our grub on! Still as yummy as last year! My husband ordered take out and didn't wait too long! My little one LOVES the char siu!

    You never have to wait longer than 5 minutes to receive a taste of Hawaiian culture. The decorations are reminiscent of the voyager culture and the food is priced so well than you can ball on a budget for breakfast/lunch/dinner. I hate Mac salad but they do it just RIGHT

    Poi butter mochi- the last one!
    Vivian H.

    Wow, the food is delicious here! This place has been popping up in my social media feeds and I love Hawaiian style food and gave this place a try today. At 11:20am, already a bunch of people eating here and one group already walked out. I ordered the Hawaiian plate and also got a poi butter mochi. I've never had poi before but can report back that the poi butter mochi is very yummy! I did a little research and poi is a traditional Hawaiian food made from a starchy root, similar to taro, called kalo. I love taro, ube and many starchy root vegetables, so this was up my alley. I could tell from the packaging that the poi was probably a starchy root vegetable. Not too sweet at all and quite tasty! It's not like Taiwanese mochi which is my reference point and there's no filling but the sticky and sweetness suits me. I love it! And I bought the last one for today. I can see myself coming to buy this very often! I will also say that the Hawaiian platter was very well made. The mac salad is how it is supposed to be made. I've also never had lau lau, but in my culture, we have something similar (think: Chinese tamales, known as zhongzi) and it was so good, and flavorful. I also went home and did some research and lau lau is made with meat and vegetables stuffed inside taro leaves and then wrapped in ti leaves. The ti leaves are discarded after the lau lau is cooked. The taro leaves is what gives the meat and vegetables a distinct flavor. It reminded me of home, felt like comfort food for me! The lomi salmon (sort of like poke and initially I thought it was pico de gallo lol - but its salted raw salmon with diced raw tomatoes and onions) portion was small, but so good, very well seasoned. The haupia is a coconut pudding dessert, reminds me of a coconut dessert I can make. Not too sweet at all and perfect for a hot day, so refreshing! My only gripe is that the rice was on the tad dry side. Everything was so good here and I already want to come back! I'll be back to have their poke bowls and try their daily specials, the guava cake and Chantilly cake! They also have ube mochi and butter mochi too, so I will be back to try those too! The island vibes here are so legit, come give it a try! Hawaiian reggae was playing and they also bring in live music performers too. When you're missing Hawaii, do come here, your heart, spirit and tummy will be so happy you did!

    Pacific Rim Combo

    This has to be my favorite hawaiian restaurant in the valley!! My familly and I were in the area and starving!! I remembered saving this spot on my tiktok so we decided to try it out. We walked in and it was pretty full! We totally got a warm welcome and got amazing recs. I decided to get the Pacific Rim Combo because I couldn't decide what to order... this meal has a little bit of everything & wow everything was so delicious! It comes with so much food I had at least half for leftovers, it's worth the price for sure! My mom ordered the poke bowl, it was so fresh and so good!! I'll definitely have to order it the next time I come in. The service was amazing, we spoke to the owners (husband & wife) and they were so friendly which is another great reason to want to go back!

    Tried their Pacific rim combo today ($18) and my mouth was watering. The kalbi, beef, and chicken were so delicious and tender. The mac and cheese was also so good too. I usually get their poke bowl, but I am so glad I tried their pacific rim combo today. Inside the restaurant is very cozy with cute hawaiin decor. Service is very fast and efficient. They take card which is always a plus. Definitely a frequent place I go to and always crave for.

    Still the Best Hawaiian Food in AZ We went again on Saturday and, even though it was super busy with people coming and going, the food and service were amazing as always. What we ordered: * 3 chicken katsu plates * 1 Pacific Rim combo (char siu chicken + teri beef) * 1 Hawaiian plate (laulau, kalua pig, mac salad, lomi salmon, haupia) * 6 musubi * 3 containers of poi * 2 containers of shoyu ahi poke * 2 containers of Hawaiian ahi poke Every single item was on point. The laulau was moist and flavorful, the katsu was perfectly cooked, the poke was fresh, and even the poi tasted just like home. Service & Atmosphere: The owner was away at a Hawaiian Hālau event, but the restaurant still had plenty of staff keeping things running smoothly. That says a lot about how well the place is run--you can feel that everyone takes pride in keeping the aloha spirit alive. Bottom line: No matter how busy they are, Pacific Rim always delivers. The food is consistently authentic, the staff is friendly, and it still feels like stepping back into Hawaiʻi every time we visit.

    Ahi tuna tasted really fresh and clean with no iron-y aftertaste. I liked the barbecue beef and kalbi, heads up they are on the sweeter side. I would probably skip the char siu next time, but it was solid. The macaroni salad is the kind without vinegar, but it was pretty good. I would come back, probably want to try the loco moco next time or the katsu. Warning, they do automatically add a $3 water bottle to the bill which I thought was strange, so make sure to watch out for that. The restaurant is decorated with a hawaiian theme and it's a cute spot.

    NEW NAME: Pacific Rim and Bistro FOOD: Delicious and plenty of it for the price. SERVICE: Service was good and staff were pleasant & friendly!! AMBIANCE: It's a small quiet restaurant. Order at the counter and they bring the food out. This was our first visit and we'll be back!!

    Cheyenne B.

    Absolutely DELICIOUS food!! We ordered the katsu bento box, furikake salmon over fried noodles, Kal-bi plate and Hawaiian style poke. Happy to say we will be regulars!

    I was in town to run a marathon. I stopped in here to get dinner. It was easy to find on Southern Ave, across the street from Mesa Community College. Service was very nice and friendly. I ordered their Hawaiian plate (laulau, kalua pig, rice & mac, lomi salmon, and haupia). The food was good and certainly reminded me of all of my past visits to Hawaii. They even had a TV that showed clips of popular Hawaiian spots.

    Good selection of Hawaiian Sun beverages.  Must be a good kine local place.

    The year 2018 was when I was introduced to Poke by brother. However, my go to poke shop has closed…read moredown awhile ago but now I have discovered this spot, my poke cravings have been answered. What I love about this spot is that they give do not skimp out on portions; you will get your money's worth every visit. Heaps of fresh fish and as many toppings as you want. I believe that this is family-owned business and the staff are very kind. My order is usually this: Mixed greens and Brown Rice Salmon Albacore Tuna Eel sauce, Ponzu Wonton Crisp Crab Salad Seaweed Salad Edamame Masago Cucumbers Green Onion Ginger But I always try something different when I visit. Can't go wrong with how you customize your poke as you can always taste the quality and freshness. As for pricing, it can be a little pricey...averaging about $20 but to be fair, it is seafood...so you'd expect it to be pricey. Overall, I will continue coming to this location for poke. I'd rate this place a strong 9/10. Adam Nguyen Copyright 2026 - All Rights Reserved.

I've never been to a spot that, surprisingly, didn't offer mango as a topping option, so I made sure to add some to my bowl! I'd say the portion of fish was generous. Even though they only used one scoop per fish serving, they made sure to top it off, so they don't skimp around here!

The garlic shrimp was pungent, packed with flavor, and very delicious. It was prepared in a way that reminded me of the food trucks I have had in Hawaii. The garlic chicken was another highlight--super moist on the inside with a nice crispy exterior. The mac salad, unfortunately, was a miss for me. It was really runny and did not have the traditional mayo-based flavor I was expecting. The malasadas were good, but not the best I have had. They were on the denser side and I think they could have been fluffier. I also regret not getting them with a filling! Overall, there were definitely some tasty items, and I am looking forward to coming back to try the kalbi ribs or poké nachos next time.

Maybe there will be another one that opens up closer to the South Tempe area, nearer to the population center. They are located at the edge of Gilbert. I love poke. There are signature bowls or build-your-own bowls. There were only five options for the signature bowls. They each have their own marinating sauce. There are five marinating sauces. OG sauce, island fin fire, pozu, wicked wahine, and shoyu. Shoyu is your basic soy sauce. The wicked wahine is a little sweet. Ponzu is usually a little citrusy tasting. I believe island fin fire was a little spicy. The OG sauce is probably what people usually get when they build their own bowl if they're not looking for something exotic. This is what is said about their marinating sauces: The OG sauce is a bold and savory flavor. It has fresh jalapeños and fresh sweet onions that marinate in sesame oil, olive oil, rice wine vinegar and a premium gluten free soy sauce. Shoyu is a premium gluten free soy sauce. Ponzu is a citrus based soy sauce. It has fresh orange juice, fresh lemon juice, and fresh lime juice that are mixed with the premium gluten free soy sauce. Island Fin Fire is their spicy sauce. It has fresh habaneros, fresh pineapple, cilantro, honey and rice wine vinegar that are mixed with their premium gluten free soy sauce. Wicked Wahine is their sweet heat. It has fresh lime juice, coconut palm sugar, and chili paste mixed with their premium gluten free soy sauce. The below are their signature bowls: Salmon Poke Bowl - Salmon, Edamame, Corn, Ponzu, Seaweed Salad, Avocado Cream, and Tempura Crisps Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl - Ahi Tuna, Edamame, Corn, OG Sauce, Pineapple Mango Salsa, Spicy Pickled Veggies, Green Onion, Togarashi, Sesame Seeds, and Crispy Onion Chicken Poke Bowl - Chicken, Edamame, Corn, Wicked Wahine, Pineapple, Green Onion, Ono Ono, and Wonton Crisps Korean BBQ Chicken Bowl - Korean BBQ Chicken, Sweet Onions, Corn, Kimchi, Spicy Pickled Veg, Green Onions, Togarashi, and Sesame Seeds Vegetable Poke Bowl With the build-your-own bowl, you can get three scoops of protein. You can also get a mix of either one rice and spring mix, or both rices but no spring mix. You can choose between brown rice or white rice. There are eight different meat options. Ahi Tuna, Salmon, Spicy Tuna, Tofu, Chicken, Octopus, Spam, Korean BBQ Chicken. There are six different options for Mix ins. Furikaki (sesame seeds, dried seaweed and sea salt), Edamame, Corn, Sweet Onion, Jalapenos, OG Veg. I would probably do all of these except for the jalapeños. You can select up to eight of their toppings. Mango, Pineapple, Cucumber, Pickled Ginger, Pickled Veg, Scallions, Seaweed Salad, Extra Seaweed Salad is $2.00 Spicy Pickled Veg You can add on a premium topping for two dollars each. Avocado $2.00 Surimi $2.00 Masago $2.00 Kimchi $2.00 You can get up to two finishing sauces. Avocado Cream - Fresh avocado, fresh lime juice and mexican crema. Wasabi Cream - Wasabi, Togarashi seasoning and mexican cream Togarashi - Their version of Spicy Mayo. Jamaican - Jerk seasoning and mayo. Ono Ono (vegan) - Their vegan finishing sauce. It is Frank's sweet thai chili mixed with cilantro, green onions, chili paste and ginger. You can get up to nine crunchy toppings. Sesame Seeds, Chili Flakes, Sea Salt Crispy Onions, Roasted Garlic, Nori Strips, Tempura Crisps, Wasabi Peas, Wonton Crisps, Chili Oil. Of these, I would probably do the crispy onions, the roasted garlic, the Nori strips, the tempura crisps, the wonton crisps, and maybe the chili oil. Usually quiet inside. Sometimes service is slow. I couldn't pick a favorite. I liked all of their signature bowls. I usually got one of the below: Salmon Poke Bowl, Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl, or the Korean BBQ Chicken Bowl.
