This is the spot!!! After hearing nothing but great reviews about this place I finally came around to trying it and it's definitely going to be my new go-to. I got the poke nachos with the creamy and shoyu salmon. It comes with crab salad, edamame, tobiko, and sauce on top of wonton chips (add avocado!). It was so fresh and not fishy at all. The salmon was cut in big cubes and they gave generous portions! The chips also didn't get soggy and weren't greasy. I'll definitely have to try their other menu options! read more

Pine Isle - Poke Nachos - Hawaiian Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Absolutely one of the best Hawaiian spots in DFW. It is a takeout spot; so, don't expect to sit down and eat inside - there are sitting outside if any are available. Workers are moving fast and doing their best to prepare orders especially hot foods as fast as possible - never had to wait too long even when I was ordering 3 different hot foods plus pokes. Even despite 25min travel time, the food taste so good. You can even ask for sauce on side, which does make your eating experience even better personally. I've tried a lot of their menu and my 3 favorites are Nacho Poke, Miso Salmon, and Mochiko Chicken. I know, you are probably thinking their poke is not even in top 3? It is good, just those 3 were even better. & Trust me with nacho poke. read more

Ever since the first time I tried this place in Dallas, I've made it a goal to have it every time I visit. It's really that good! It reminds me of Hawaii. The poke is so fresh and delicious. If you can only order one thing, you gotta try to garlic shrimp, it reminds me of the famous Giovanni's (iykyk). So flavorful, and every bite keeps you wanting more. I enjoyed the mochiko chicken, but it definitely could be crispier. If you have tried Pine Isle, wyd? Run, don't walk. read more

I honestly can't say enough good things about Pine Isle. Everything you read and everything everyone says about this place is true--it really is that good. I don't normally feel that strongly about poke anywhere in the mainland because it's just okay, but Pine Isle was the first poke-specializing place that I felt like everything tasted just like how poke tastes in Hawaii. Of course that makes sense because the owner is Hawaiian, but wow... to get a slice of Hawaii in Dallas? A true blessing. I love their poke nachos, mac salad, spicy salmon... basically everything. You have to come and try out what the hype is all about because they truly deserve the hype and more. Note that they only have outdoor seating, so it can get really hot during the summertime. However, most people I know just order it for takeout and eat it at home. Please open more locations in Dallas! We desperately need Pine Isle to come to Plano (or even Austin). read more

I really didn't expect much but was pleasantly surprised! Came here with some friends per their recommendation. I haven't had poke since moving to DFW area. They sang the praises of this restaurant, especially considering that the fish is regularly flown out from Hawaii. I ordered. It was a bowl mix with one of the salmon and tuna options. It took a bit of time. About 20 minutes. Nonetheless, well worth the wait. Alongside the poke, there was crab salad, edamame, seaweed salad, and half mix greens and rice. Everything by itself was delicious. Together... oh my goodness. I am literally salivating as I'm thinking about it. I can't write more. Otherwise, I will embarrasingly drool on my desk and keyboard. Highly recommend. read more

I am so delighted by the existence of Pine Isle!! Incredible poke, I am not surprised they sell out so quickly every night!! Their cooked dishes are also incredible, and also frequently sell out. This was become a regular takeout place for us, and I highly recommend it to everyone!!! read more

Left poke order: shoyu salmon & creamy spicy ahi w/ half salad & half rice on the side Right poke: shoyu salmon & shoyu ahi w/ half salad & half rice on the side Coming out to be $34.64 for 2 regular pokes not including tip yet. Food always hit! My boyfriend lovessss this place and we both agree that this reminds us of poke from hawaii! Order this online and it was ready for pick up right when i got there! Service was amazing. The staff are truly so kind and helpful. I was in and out within 1 minute. This is the third time being here since it's a bit of a drive. Wed probably go once a week if it was closer to us tbh! We typically like to order online since it's faster. This place is more of a takeout style shop so it's a tight waiting area which is why we togo now! There's also seating outside but very limited. read more

If you love poke, I have a spot for you. Pine Isle is a restaurant located in Dallas, with delicious, fresh-tasting poke. I came later in the day and got to try a regular poke bowl with 2 scoops of protein (creamy spicy ahi & creamy spicy salmon)! The bowl also comes with rice, krab salad, seaweed salad, edamame, ginger, and wasabi. This is definitely my new go-to for when I'm in a poke mood! read more

I'm only rating a 4 because I have not been in this location and experienced the service but ordering from here has been seamless. I always order the poke bowl with salad and rice but decided to try the poke nachos with wasabi octopus and shoyu ahi and I'm so pleased. The wonton chips on delivery where still crispy and not soggy which is a plus but the flavors within the nachos just come together no matter what protein you get. I also order the lumpia which is 10/10, I am no stranger to lumpia. I've had the musubi and the fried musubi and I recommend both but for a more fulfilling option definitely go with the fried musubi. read more

If you're in Dallas and looking for something fresh and amazing, you definitely found the spot! The food is extremely fresh and so delicious. The staff is very friendly and motivated to get you exactly what you want. The food here makes me miss Hawaii for sure! Speaking with the staff, they told me that the owner lived in Hawaii and learned a lot of these amazing recipes. Love it! read more

Ever since moving to the DFW area a few months ago, we have been coming here every other week it seems. The poke plates and poke nachos are our favorites. The fish is fresh and marinades are flavorful. Honorable mention for the fried spam musubis. We normally order ahead online and dine at the picnic tables in front of the restaurant since they have no indoor dining. They provide cold waters outside and the tables are always clean and have an umbrella attached which is a plus for when it gets too sunny. read more

My daughter wanted to hit up this place on our way home from Dallas to Houston. Mind you I am not in line to Poke on road trips.... Service was great they have 2 fish options , Tuna and salmon- 2 ways. I am not a fan of Tuna because it's a bloodier fish so it you can taste the iron and I don't particularly like the texture. (Still not a fan but it was really good tuna). The salmon had skin on which I'm not usually inclined to, but the fish was so fresh and the prep was done so beautifully that you can't go wrong- it was like butter. Don't plan to sit inside- take it to go or sit at the benches on the side of the building. I like the concept from a business perspective because they are focused on the product and customer service not having to worry about clean up bussing tables etc. they focus on their food. We got poke bowls, macaroni and the canned drink. For $16 it's a very generous portion I have to tell you, it's not a stingy serving. Haven't had really good poke in a while and I love that they are not asking you to build your bowl you can add and subtract but they know how it tastes good no decisions required read more

hey... this place is unbeatable. real down-home vibes, patient and friendly service, DELICIOUS, fried musubi is AMAZING and unexpected. fresh fish and great portions which make it totally worth the price! we met the owner bringing in supplies for the place too, kind guy! outdoor seating is lovely. was also amazed at the range of the menu. took probably less than 5 minutes to come out. please go here instead of a corporate "hawaiian" chain. will be back!! read more

Pine Isle was delicious! I got the fried musubi and mochiko chicken. Every thing is made fresh so it does take a little bit of time, so I'd recommend ordering ahead. They were also running low on a lot of items by the time I got there, around dinner on a Friday. Only outdoor seating if you're hoping to stay and eat so be prepared. My only complaint is I do wish they had pictures of the menu or something that offers a little more explanation in store. read more

2.5 I wanted to like this place, but it fell short for me. The first turn off was having to wait in line for a pickup order. Kind of defeats the purpose of ordering online. I ordered the pork lumpia that was just ok. I got the kalua pork plate. The mac salad was very bland and the rice was gross. The kalua pork is absolutely delicious. I won't return, but if you go, I highly recommend the kalua pork, just don't get the rice. It tastes off. The only seating is a few outdoor tables. read more

My friends got pine isle takeout for me after I delivered my baby. Man oh man was it good. It definitely hit the spot. I think she got me three types: shoyu salmon, shoyu tuna and spicy salmon. I loved all of them! The fish was so tender and not fishy tasting. The flavor was really good. She also got the deep fried musubi and it was amazinnnnngggg. 10/10 would recommend. Would like to go back and try the other dishes!! read more

This place definitely lives up to the hype! Pine Isle is a take-out only establishment. It's a pretty small space, but I noticed a couple benches outside. We placed a pickup order, and it was an easy transaction with the employee. We got two large poke bowl. I got half rice and half salad with creamy spicy ahi, wasabi tako (octopus), and shoyu salmon. My boyfriend got just rice with creamy spicy salmon, wasabi tako, and shoyu ahi. The fish was very fresh and the flavors were on point! My friends and I agreed that it started getting a bit too salty, but adding more rice balanced it out. I personally wouldn't do all salad because it wouldn't absorb the sauce. Friends got the fried musubi, which had a nice crunch and the same flavors as your typical spam musubi. I'll be back to try the rest of the menu the next time I'm in Dallas! read more

While the food is great and I've been here many times for a reason - I'm writing this review in regard to cleanliness. I showed up to pick up my order about ten minutes too early and had to stand in the entrance waiting. While doing so, I witnessed SEVERAL incidents of employees being careful and thoughtful about cleanliness. This isn't something I generally go out of my way to look for, but it was so evident that it was obvious and appreciated. I watched employees cleaning the top of canned beverages one by one, employees washing hands after taking drinks of personal beverages, switching gloves constantly - it was just really noticeable and I thought JT should be called out! read more

For being the newest authentic poke spot in dallas i thought it was pretty good! When we went, there was a line outside but it didnt take too long and the service was quick and v friendly! There isnt any indoor seating and there are limited tables outside infront of the restaurant fyi! We got to try both the spicy and shoyu flavors for both salmon and ahi - the ahi was really good! It def is the closest to the poke ive had in hawaii that you can find in the dfw area - the texture of the ahi was spot on! But i may have gone on an off day as the salmon was a liiittle fishy for both flavors, but the spicy salmon was better since it was covered in more sauce! But the ahi was really fresh and good for both shoyu and spicy c: I def will be back bc I want to try the salmon poke again and to try their other food items as it looks really good! read more

Pine Isle lives up to the hype - the menu and quality of the poke feels like someone dug up a shop from Hawaii and plopped it down in east Dallas. I tried the spicy tuna and shoyu salmon, and both types of fish were fresh, well-seasoned with sauce but not overly so. They also have other Hawaiian classics such as kalbi (which is very popular as an entree in HI even though it's Korean), kalua pork, garlic shrimp, and spam musubi. The portions are pretty good for the price ($16 for regular plate/bowl and $18 for large). Note that even if they display a certain type of fish, it may be unavailable: they still had some spicy salmon left in the display case but I was informed I couldn't order any because it was being reserved for online orders, which was slightly disappointing. Orders also take a fairly long time to be completed. It's largely a to-go establishment with only 1 small table inside and 1 outside. Would not recommend planning to dine in unless you're banking on getting lucky. read more

This is a new restaurant I decided to try when I was passing through the area. Similar to other Hawaiian/poke restaurants, Pine isle offer similar island-style food in the heart of Dallas. They make it to order and my order took about 14 minutes, I had to just kinda stand there since they don't have anywhere to sit. I dont like that they dont have any indoor seating. They do have picnic tables outside to sit, but when its freezing cold outside, I would need to pick up to go. I got the spam masubi, pretty basic, not much to it. I got the plate of loco moco and that gravy is gold!! I really like the flavor of the beef paties it came with it. I normally opt out of the macaroni it comes with because it taste store bough and tastes yucky, but pine isle macaroni was actually really good. I also like the salad it came with along with the dressing. Nothing wrong with getting your veggies in, but i think next time I would get a different side. don't read more

I LOVE Pine Isle!! It's always an essential stop whenever I am in Dallas. It's worth the hype and the flavors are extremely addicting. The shoyu salmon and creamy salmon are my favorite poke options. Everything I've tried here is sooo good and I am also a fan of the garlic shrimp and kalbi. Pine Isle does not skimp out on portions and I feel the price is very worth it. Always make sure to order ahead to guarantee it hasn't sold out for the day. read more

This place is very popular and it's easy to see why! The poké is sooooo good. It's as close as you can get to Hawai'i this far inland and flavor is spot on. Rice is cooked to perfection. The garlic shrimp is the right amount of garlic. Shell wasn't as soft to easily eat but I still ate it all anyways. I'd come here just for the poké again. The regular spam musubi wasn't anything special. Maybe not enough sauce. No seating indoor, they have about 3 or 4 tables outside! Parking isn't terrible either. read more

Highly recommend ordering online and picking it up due to the small restaurant space. There is really only 2 sit down tables in that area. But please be patient when you do order there since they do get overwhelmed with orders sometimes! I got the poke combo and it was pretty good for Dallas quality. I'm going to be honest though, not the best I've ever had but I still enjoyed it. read more

Probably the best poke spot in Dallas. We ordered take out and the fish was still super fresh and well seasoned. Portions are HUGE!! I got the two scoop half rice and half salad with shoyu ahi and creamy spicy salmon. Bowl was filled to the brim and the flavors complimented each other very well. We also got the pork lumpias which were decent. The loco moco portion was huge too. The gravy was a bit more soy saucey, less gravy tasting, but overall was standard. Definitely come here for the poke. They sell out pretty fast! Will check out the store in person soon. But from the pictures looks clean and tidy. read more

This place is hands down the best Hawaiian poke restaurant in Dallas-- no competition. I've been struggling to find a good poke spot to replace Don Don Poke in Plano, and nothing ever came close... until now. It's a 45-minute drive, but my sister hyped it up so much that I finally agreed to go. She actually drove there twice last weekend, but it was sold out just an hour after opening on Saturday. One of the staff members told her it's best to order online since their inventory updates in real time. We placed our order online, and it went through! Just to be safe, we also called the store to double-check before heading out. It was a long drive, but 100000% worth it. I haven't been to Hawaii, but I can tell their poke is as authentic as it gets. At first, I was a little thrown off by the price, since most poke spots I go to are around $14. But once I saw the portions, it all made sense. They did not skimp on the fish, AT ALL. I actually had more fish than rice by the end, which never happens! The shoyu ahi tuna, shoyu salmon, and creamy salmon were all incredibly fresh and delicious. If you like spicy, definitely go for the creamy version. We also tried the kalbi and fried spam musubi; both were made fresh to order with generous portions. The space is small since it's designed for takeout, with just two tables inside and one outside. Luckily, nobody was dining in on this Wednesday night, so we grabbed a table and dug in right away. The place was buzzing with people coming in and out to pick up their orders. I overheard a worker say they only make what they can based on the day's fish delivery, which explains the exceptional freshness. I truly hope business keeps booming so they can open more locations quickly, especially in Plano. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for bringing amazing poke to DFW area. Don't even bother trying other poke places to compare, Pine Isle is in a league of its own. read more

A small Hawaiian style poke joint with big island vibes in Dallas! The shop is small, they have two small tables inside and a small table outside, definitely made for more of a take out style poke joint. Poke: for bowls you can get salad, rice, or 1/2. The regular comes with two scoops of poke and the large comes with three scoops. The fish were all really nicely portioned and extremely flavorful. I liked that the cuts of salmon were thick and I even saw a few pieces of fatty looking belly in mine. Mac Salad: very creamy in a good kind of way! Spam musubi: solid choice, if you like fried things definitely get the fried spam musubi, the crunch is next level! Overall I really enjoyed my stop at Pine Isle, if I'm ever in this area of Dallas definitely worth the stop for their poke! They do have some plate options on their menu that looked really good, will have to try next visit! read more

Pine Isle is probably one of the best poke places I've had in DFW in quite awhile. The fish are in nice big chunks and the sauces flavorful; both the shoyu and the creamy (mayo) sauce. I wouldn't wait too long to get the poke since they tend to sell out towards the end of the day. Even their Miso Salmon is good. I highly suggest ordering online beforehand or else you'll end up waiting in line for 10-15mins at the restaurant. read more

I was so excited to come hear since hearing about it! I was told the lines were long and food sold out quick when it first opened. I will say this restaurant is a lot smaller than I expected, there's only 2 small tables inside and 1 table outside, and most of the space is taken up by the kitchen. I shared the Kalua pork + cabbage plate + 1/2 pound of shoyu salmon with another person and it satisfied us. The food came out really quickly too! We both really enjoyed the food itself, the small side salad and mac salad were good additions to the meat and rice, and at the end we ended up just combining the poke with the leftover rice. There aren't too many places like this in Dallas that serve the poke like this, so it's good to see! I would come back :) read more

Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 Value: 4/5 -- Delicious. Incredible poke, my favorites are the spicy salmon and spicy ahi tuna. Generous portions, and excellent customer service. They've figured out the seating situation a little better, but still only outdoor seating. I count myself so lucky that I live close to this restaurant, because whenever the craving comes, I make my husband take me IMMEDIATELY. Literally my only complaint is that the poke is QUITE onion heavy so no one can be around me afterwards. Oh well! read more

First time here & I was really impressed with the fast service. I didn't call in the order which I'll do moving forward, but the service was great & lots of Aloha! I was so happy to see meat Jun on the menu. The poke was tasty & I felt like I was back on the islands. The Mac salad was ono too, but I would prefer a little more carrots. Overall, I'll be back to try more items! Oh.. and the laulau was delicious :) read more

Really small store with 4 picnic tables outside for eating. Customer service was fine, they're quick but hospitable. I've tried the octopus, creamy spicy ahi/salmon, and shoyu tuna/salmon. Both variations of the tuna and salmon are really good, the octopus not so much but that's probably just preference. They can run out of the tuna/salmon relatively quick so don't count on getting them if you come close to closing. read more

For those pining for their go-to dishes in Hawaii, Pine Isle hits the spot. This little takeout spot in an unassuming plaza in East Dallas dishes out poke just like from the Hawaiian islands. There's some picnic tables outside if you can't wait to take it all the way home. We tried all of the poke flavors--shoyu ahi, shoyu salmon, spicy ahi, spicy salmon. Next time we'll probably make some rice at home and just get the fish because it's just so good. The fish was fresh, and the flavors were just perfect. We'd also love to try the fried spam musubi and loco moco next time. All we're missing now is a beach and some salty waves! read more

It was worth the hype! It has been open for 4 months and there was a line of people waiting for their orders outside. The inside is a small space enough for you to order and wait outside. There are about four sitting tables outside but it gets packed quick. The staff were friendly when taking my order. I got the bowl with two scoops that was spicy ahi and shoyu ahi with half rice and salad it also came with edamame pods, Imitation crab, seaweed salad, and pickled ginger slices. The portion was enough to feed 2 people. The price was great! The spicy tuna was soo good and the shoyu ahi had so much flavor. The reviews are true it's great!

When Pine Isle first came to Dallas, you could tell that we were getting quality and freshness we hadn't been used to. I used to dine with them via DoorDash a couple times a month. Their salmon and tuna, at first was very vivid, high grade, and had an incredible depth of flavor. However, my last experience a week or so ago included a poke with very opaque salmon slathered in mayo, the tuna is dull and the sauce no longer has the onion, herbs, and sauce that kept me coming back. The rice was very mushy and warm which med things even more unappetizing. The lumpia and fried spam musubi are still excellent, fortunately, but I feel like should still be able to get the same great experience across the board. Regarding extras, the wonton chips were super stale during my last experience and when you want some more crab or seaweed salad (also a dip in quality) you will only receive about a dime worth in the tiniest ramekins I've ever seen. Please bring back the goodness we were introduced to, otherwise I can't promise I'll return. read more
