    Shoyu Poke
    Abraham K.

    A little tiny shop that has a table and 2 chairs outside. Soft drink selection. So good and no frills. Will have to come back for the Macadamia Aburi Salmon!

    Fast service with a rake out window type set up. I went during off hours so there was no line either time I went and I was able to use the one small table they had out front. This was my favorite poke in Oahu, but I ordered the same thing twice and the second time they forgot to add the spicy mayo which should have been included. It was still delicious but just a small nick in terms of attention to detail especially since I was there when they first opened so it wasn't busy. Highly recommend for a grab and go option!

    First poke of the trip! Pretty good. Got 1/4 lb each My sis and I like the wasi sabi wasabi flavor best. The spicy mahi mahi was good too. We both liked the ahi tuna over the salmon, which is surprising since my sis is more of a salmon fan. My brother also got the yuzu miso ahi bowl, but that one was a little bit fishy. Overall pretty good

    Close to hotels and pretty good poke, although it cost twice what it does in local area of town and not as fresh. There were only two workers so it took a long time to get the food and seating was limited. Limited space inside and so had to line up outside to order and wait 15 to 20 minutes even during non-peak hours. Portions were good and spice level on Spicy Sato was very good. Every extra has a charge from 50 cents for soy sauce to the same for a bag.

    I've had a lot of poke in my life, but nothing compared to this place! Ono was closed so my friends and I were looking for an alternative, and were intrigued by their "Hawaiian Munchies" bowl. They have so many different options, and even hand rolls too! I got the Hawaiian munchies bowl but with salmon instead of tuna. I've never had salmon poke like this, the fish was so bouncy and fresh I ate the entire bowl in under 15 mins. It was the best first meal of the trip!! I highly recommend, the worker was also very friendly and patient with us as we were indecisive.

    We landed in Hawaii and were feeling like a snack before we had reservations at happy hour elsewhere and stumbled across this gem. We tried the spicy ahi, shrimp, yuzu ahi hand rolls and they were all packed with flavor our favorite might've been the shrimp and yuzu ahi hand rolls. Definitely recommend if in the area.

    When we wanted a delicious and fast dinner one night, my husband and I landed here and while it's a take-out restaurant we were able to sit just outside and eat after ordering at the counter. The service was friendly and fast. The place doesn't look like much but the food is quite tasty with a range of options. We ordered shrimp tempura and a spicy poke and both were delicious. The rice wasn't as hot as we like but it didn't detract from the meal. It's on a busy street so ideally picking up from here and going in a picnic would be great. Or taking it home of course. The vibe is casual and the dishes are fresh.

    HOURS (5/5): Open EVERYDAY from 7:30am - 8:30pm! On the Main Street KUHIO AVE. AMBIANCE (3/5): It's a fast casual restaurant. Literally only big enough to order and 2 small tables outside to wait for your food or eat at if you want. FOOD (5/5): This was probably my FAVORITE poke bowl of the trip. I'm a toppings and saucy person, so you can add as much or as little as you want. They had some very unique dishes with MACADAMIA NUTS and TORCHED SALMON. Absolutely amazing! I highly recommend this place. $25 MACADAMIA ABURI SALMON (+add ginger, ikura, fried garlic): this is their most popular dish! I can see why, it's SO GOOD! I'd def make this a regular spot to visit on my trips here. OVERALL ( 4/5): This place is quick and to the point with AMAZING food & prices comparable to everywhere else but far better quality.

    First day in Oahu and we were craving some good poke. The last time we came here we tried Foodland, but didn't get to try other small spots around the area. We stumbled upon this quaint seafood spot and were very glad that we did. Their fish was soooo fresh as if they just caught it that morning! I ain't even lying. Definitely one of the best hand rolls I've had -- everything melted together from the salmon to the seafood and the rice. Tucked together so nicely. Salmon portion was thickkkkk. Rice portion wasn't too much either. Their shoyu marinated tuna was flavorful -- subtle and not salty. They had an ample amount of fish serving on a bed of rice. I like how they give you options to add other things on your bowl, but the main idea is the quality of the fish here and man do they nawttt disappoint. Fish can be tender too. Coming here like everyday of the trip...

    Macadamia Aburi Salmon!!!! Sato Seafood was on my list of places to try this trip, and it did not disappoint! First time having macadamia nuts on my poke, and it is a game changer for both flavor and texture. The salmon was super fresh and the rice was perfectly cooked. The poke is packed with flavor and the portion was just right.

    The best, unique tasting poke of our whole trip!! The aburi macademia salmon bowl here is to die for. The char mixed with the creamy sauce is so perfect. If you liked seared salmon nigiri with mayo, this is your dream poke bowl. The macademia nuts as a topping is also super unique and adds a lot of texture and rich flavor to the bowl. Staff were very kind and the food came out quickly. Highly recommend this spot!

    Small poke shop walkable from the beach. Limited seating in front of the store but would rather eat on the beach and enjoy the sunset. I got the macadamia abura sushi which comes with crushed macadamia nuts and torched poke salmon. The moment I got the bowl I could smell the torched salmon. The macadamia gives it a nice texture and buttery flavor. Rice was good and has some sauce on the bottom. Quick service ordered counter and called my name when ready. Would definitely come back for the same dish!

    I stopped and got one hand roll at lunch and dreamed about it the rest of the day so I came back at dinner and ordered more for my friends and I. The ladies there are so nice. It a small little shop where you order it for to go. The rolls taste very fresh and good. A very nice place to come when you are on the run.

This is the trifecta people want when they go to a restaurant and Herringbone has exceeded my expectations. I had the potato crusted tuna and I devoured every last crumb on my plate. The fish was cooked to perfection so much so that it melted in my mouth. It was amazing. I do not say the lightly because just two nights ago I had an "organic macadamia nut crusted fresh catch" at a ward restaurant and the fish was dry which left me disappointed.

There was one other table when we arrived, so busy-ness was not an excuse. We stood at the front while the servers talked and ignored us. After being seated, it took about 10 min for the server to greet us, another 20 min to get drinks, and then about 20 more min for the food. No sense of urgency, minimal concern for taking our order or greeting us, and he had to be reminded about a few items we ordered or asked for. It's a beautiful spot, but the service is why I likely won't be back.

Excellent…read morelocation and highly recommend walking there if you are staying close by the Kalākaua Ave. There are very limited dining area so we decided to order to go. We were also able to order online and the process was seamless. We have ordered the most expensive lobster roll, which I believe has 1/2 pounds of lobster. The lobster itself was super fresh and the texture is great. You can taste the freshness from the food and you know that the lobster is not previously frozen. Although the price is close to $80 for one lobster roll, the portion is huge. It can easily feed 2 adults. We enjoyed our experience overall but will opt for the smaller option next time haha

    Note: The prices listed are from May 23, 2026. The prices appear to fluctuate based on market…read moreprice. All rolls are served with following sides: crinkle cut potato chips, melted butter, house coleslaw, garlic mayo, lemon wedge, and Old Bay seasoning. The meat is served chilled in the bun. They have 4 "sizes" that they serve on a toasted brioche bun (~6 inch bun): - The Regular (3.5 oz)**: $36.99 - The Popular (5 oz)**: $49.99 - The Big One (7 oz)**: $62.99 - The Maine Event (1/2 lb (8 oz)): $74.99 **You can also ask for extra 1.5 oz lobster meat to this size for $13.99. You can also buy just the cooked lobster meat: 1/2 lb (8 oz) for $75.00 They have can drinks such as sodas (including Hawaiian sodas) and beer. The roll was actually quite tasty! I was able to experiment with different flavors with the Old Bay seasoning, garlic mayo, lemon, and butter. The garlic mayo was surprisingly good with the lobster. You can also throw the Old Bay seasoning on the chips if you're in the mood. The price is pretty steep which was my mistake. I don't know what I was expecting when ordering lobster in Waikiki. The lady at the cash register was less than pleasant and helpful so it makes spending that money feel a little more painful. If you can afford it and are really craving a lobster roll, this should satiate you. I didn't feel like I needed more to eat after finishing my meal. Location: The store is located in the Royal Hawaiian shopping center. You have to take a staircase from the first floor to a lower floor to get to it. You may need to ask around for directions. The restaurant is super small. Maybe two or 3 small tables that can fit no more than 6-8 people.

To drink, I had a Lava Flow (I had to) and my husband had the most delicious Painkiller - it even came with an actual syringe of rum to add to it, which he loved. I would go back for the Painkiller alone! For food, we shared a kalua pork quesadilla - very tasty - and their house salad which had a delicious passion fruit dressing and mandarin slices which was really refreshing.
