@Brandon L. Your picture is very fitting. I bet the monkey in your profile picture matches your demeanor and intelligence level.
You have a brand new profile with a single review that you created just to take a picture of my returns, post it, and respond to my comment?
Yeah.... you really sound like an "actual customer"
Yet, no one found your review as helpful besides me.
Did they?
You're obviously an employee or manager there; being so invested to actually take a picture of what a customer returned, post it, and actually consume the returned bowls of spoiled ahi.
I'm sure it's totally normal for a random customer to take pictures of returned food items to a restaurant and actually eat it, right? (Sarcasm)
Btw, Thank you for posting the picture of the bowls that I returned. That way everyone can see it.
I'm pretty amazed that you can post what's obviously spoiled meat while thinking this "will prove me wrong" while being completely clueless that you just supported my complaints by doing so.
All while being incredibly ignorant, smug, and insulting about it.
I have eaten Poke my entire life growing up in Hawaii and I have an Asian mother.
I've eaten ahi from many different locations from Hawaii to NYC. I've eaten different grades of ahi from the grocery store type (which is still pretty good in Hawaii) to fine dining ahi (A significant increase of quality and tase).
I have never once seen any of those places try to sell poke this low quality and OLD!
The fact the you can look at what you posted (and I returned) and think, "Hey that looks okay and I'll actually eat it!"; tells me that your stomach is made of steel and your head is filled with rocks".
Marinade doesn't turn the meat that dark!!!
Of course it would look and taste okay, to someone who is completely unaware of what fresh and good quality ahi should actually look and tast like.
That's why they soak it in shoyu Marinade!!!
You think it tastes fine Because your TASTING THE SHOYU MARINADE....
What's really crazy is your gas lighting. I was still polite and respectful, while I was returning the bowls.
Which is more than I can say for a business that would try to increase their profits by selling old ahi and risk getting their customers sick.
For a meal that costs almost $40?!?! They shouldn't even be giving it away for free, let alone charging the price they did for it.
You posting the bowls really just supported my claims.
I'm pretty sure it's your complete lack of common sense and experience of what fresh ahi should actually look like; that's causing your rude, and ignorant smugness.
Your train of thought is actually pretty funny; posting what's obviously old poke and then pretending that it's fresh is actually laughable.
Being incredibly rude and insulting as a way to support your claims of the poke being "just fine", is hardly enough to ignore the picture you posted AND of what I returned; of what's obviously old ahi meat.
Although the new bowls were the correct color, the quality was still sub par. Especially for the cost.
Here's a thought?
How about insuring that your restaurant serves better quality product and not try to shame someone (who has common sense) for not wanting to get a food borne illness?
The only thing your post accomplished is making yourself look absolutely ridiculous and mentally challenged; by posting what's obviously OLD AHI MEAT.
You can laugh at my claims all you want. It doesn't make you look less ignorant.
It certainly wouldn't make anyone (who actually knows what quality ahi should look like) ignore the picture you posted or the other customer reviews that said the EXACT SAME THING.....
Their food never got you sick? Really?
Well read through the reviews of the people that it did get sick!!!!
You very sad, ignorant, ill mannered, and intellectually challenged troll. read more
