Okay, for some reason this year, the places I think about and crave all the time seem to be poke/raw fish places And this is definitely one I've gone back to multiple times. The price and quality are both really good here. I don't even normally like raw fish or poke that much, but I like the poke here! My go-to is the Souza Special. Honestly, I love the variety you get, and I also like that they let me do half sushi rice and half salad for when I'm trying to be a little healthy Actually, writing this review is making me want to go again. I've also tried their Poke Hurricane Ahi, spicy ahi, and I think the Maui Onion Crunch. Everything I've gotten has been good, and this place has definitely become part of my regular rotation. The only downside is the parking. It can be a pain since there are really only two stalls, so it's almost a two-person job...one person orders while the other deals with the car It's definitely more of a grab-and-go kind of place. Anyways, if a place can get someone who doesn't even really like poke to keep coming back, I think that says a lot! read more

We got the Souza Special, poke nachos, and some poke by the pound. The fish was really fresh and everything tasted so good. The poke nachos with spicy ahi were one of my favorites too. Definitely one of the best places to go when you're craving fresh fish and poke. read more

Tried Souza's Fish House for the first time a couple weeks ago. And it was so good that we had to make a trip back the following week! The first time we went was because my boyfriend had ordered their Kona crab poke. It was delish! The shell is harder than the crab they sell at Foodland, but the meat of the crab was tasty! A little sweeter and the kimchee sauce had the perfect flavor. Both times we went I had their trio donburi which comes with akami, chutoro, salmon, hamachi and ikura. It also comes with some little sides and sushi rice. All the fish toppings on top are to die for! I literally kept saying "mmmm" and doing a happy dance lol Their sushi rice is a little on the sweeter side. We also tried their cold ginger poke and spicy. Both were amaaazing. Can't wait till we go back again! And this time I think I'll try a different donburi and diffferent types of poke. Staff is super nice and friendly. They make your order pretty fast even when they're busy. But the only hard part is their parking. We had a really hard time finding parking the first time we went so it would be best if you have someone drop you off and wait in the car somewhere until you get your order. It's a small place but there are a few seats if you wanted to eat there. read more

My new favorite poke spot on the island! The cold ginger ahi poke is so good and unlike anything I've ever seen anywhere else. Went here twice in one week! The Souza special sashimi plate was good with very high quality fish but I think I prefer the poke. Their imitation crab salad is also very good. The house special was less flavorful than the Maui onion crunch and cold ginger poke. All were tasty but the cold ginger poke is definitely our favorite!! There's not really much parking so bring someone who can hop out and grab the food. read more

I couldn't deny all the photos of the fresh fish! Was expecting to splurge a lot of $ but the price is really reasonable esp for the chutoro/otoro which is usually hella expensive for just the fish itself. Got the chutoro/otoro and trio deluxe donburis, as well as 1/4 Spice Hurricane and Maui Onion poke... SO GOOD AND SO FRESH. The sashimi had such vibrant colors with a nice thick cut. Both donburi's were filling. I actually preferred the chutoro over the otoro as the otoro was super buttery imo but that's just me. Fish overall was 10000/10! Limited parking but was able to park down the street and walked. It was a little busy and we had to wait maybe like 10-15min for our food but it's well worth it. read more

Coming off a long flight from Chicago, I wanted good local and non-touristy place that served fresh poke and this was the spot! I had a 2 poke combo plate and took a whim on choices because they had so much to offer. My brain has fireworks upon the first bite and I finished the whole thing in no time. It's a small, to-go designed place with very limited seating. The service was excellent as they were so patient on my first time visit. I would 100% recommend this place over and over again. read more

We picked up the Trio for a quick lunch. The sushi rice was a little sweet for my taste, but the fish was really fresh and everything else tasted great! They only have a few parking stalls and the surrounding area is pretty crowded so parking might be an issue if you are stopping by by yourself. Overall a great place for poke bowls and sashimi donburi's and will definitely be going back. read more

Souza's Fish House - So good!!!!!! - Poke Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Takeout spot. Delicious and fresh fish can be found here for an affordable price which is RaRE these days... it's in an unassuming area in Mapunapuna surrounded by auto shops, dealerships, etc. if it wasn't for yelp or google I would've never found this place. I tried the Laotian flavor poke bowl. It's pretty good but my favorite is still their chirashi bowl coz that's when the fresh fish flavor could shine. The cuts of the sashimi were amazing, no stringiness and just full of fish fatty goodness. I'd say the quality was comparable to some omakase places! Went in there at 10:30 and I wasn't the only one lol. That gotta be a popular spot! It's such a great spot to stop by when you drop off your car at the dealership. Can't wait to eat there again. read more

Absolutely AMAZING experience with Souza's Fish House every time! My family and I honestly cannot say enough good things about Souza's Fish House and how incredible our experience was having him be part of our wedding day! He has also catered sashimi for my father in-law's birthday and his work just never disappoints which is why my mother in law wanted to order from him again for our wedding. My in-laws actually surprised my fiancé and I by getting Souza's Fish House for our wedding, and we are SO grateful they did. We had a beautiful sashimi setup prepared for our guests, enough for up to 150 people, and not only was everything absolutely fresh and delicious, but he went above and beyond and threw in extras for us! That was such an unexpected and thoughtful gesture, and our guests absolutely loved it. It was definitely one of the highlights of our wedding for cocktail hour. We had so many people come up to us throughout the night telling us how amazing the sashimi was and the overall presentation. When you're hosting a wedding with so many guests, you always hope everyone enjoys the food, but it was so nice hearing so many compliments about it all night long! Beyond the food, what really stood out was how kind, accommodating, and generous he was. You could genuinely tell that Ryan cared about making our experience special and wanted to make sure we had more than enough for our guests. That kind of service and aloha means SO much, especially on such an important day. He surprised us with our own heart shaped sashimi platter that we were given at our sweetheart table so we wouldn't have to worry about missing out on what our guests got to enjoy. It was the most thoughtful addition and we truly appreciated it! We are incredibly grateful to our in-laws for gifting us this experience and to Souza's Fish House for helping make our wedding even more memorable. The fish was amazing and fresh, the generosity was beyond what we expected, and the entire experience was 10/10! If you're looking for fresh, delicious sashimi and someone who truly goes above and beyond for their customers, we HIGHLY recommend Souza's Fish House! Thank you so much for being part of our wedding day! We will definitely be recommending you to everyone we know and look forward to ordering through Souza's Fish House once again! read more

I was craving poke nachos and came across Souza's Fish House in Mapunapuna. Although it was a bit of a drive to get there, I was determined to go based on all the 5 star reviews. And let me tell you, it definitely lived up to all the hype! This is a little hole -in-the-wall in an industrial area. There's only a few parking spots in front, so you'll need to find street parking if you're not one of the lucky ones. Upon arrival, I was greeted by the friendliest employees! I ordered the Poke Nachos (2 choices) for $20. I chose the Shoyu Ahi and the Hawaiian Salt Ahi. I asked if they could separate the poke from the chips since I planned to eat it later on, and they kindly put the poke in separate containers so I could keep the poke cold in my fridge. When I finally dived into my poke nachos, it was so delicious! I combined everything together and it was one of the best poke nachos I've ever had. The fish was so fresh and they were generous with the poke portions. I would highly recommend this place for poke, and I will definitely return soon to try some of their other items! read more

This place is a hidden gem! Don't blink while driving down here or you will miss the tiny parking area they have. They do have a couple of stalls in the front but other than that it's street parking. That being said, the garlic ahi poke and Souza Special I had were delicious. It was fresh and the perfect amount of rice to fish ratio. We also called in our order while on the way there and it was ready to go by the time we got there 10 mins later. The shop is clean and bright and I will definitely be back again. read more

Decided to finally give this place a try after seeing it a few times when driving by. All the fish here is Sooooo fresh. The flavors are all on point. Parking is small in front but there's some street parking. You only come in quick anyways. Great costumer service and they threw in some miso soup for us and it was a rainy day so it was perfect. They're awesome. They can torch the fish if you want, I had them torch salmon because I'm pregnant. Yeah sad I couldn't fully enjoy it but I am definitely coming back for the little nibbles I was able to taste. I'm already hooked. Lol They also got come little desserts in the fridge for purchase and cute hair clips I was so tempted to buy. Hole in the wall spot glad we found it. read more

Souza's Fish House is a hidden gem. I finally, got a chance to stop in. It's located in the Mapunapuna area. Parking can be challenging but it's worth the wait to find one. Staff was very friendly. As busy as they were, they manage to greet us as we walked-in. This place is for takeout orders only. We had the Hurricane Bowl and the Spicy Ahi Bowl. It looks like the proportions are small, but the dish was deep and had a generous amount inside. I gotta say it was super flavorful and tasty with the crab salad on the side. There was a seasoned cuttlefish on the side which was superb. All their fish is served fresh. That's what makes it sooo good! I will be back to try other items on my next visit. read more

Another 5-star experience! I wanted Poke again and went back to Souza's for a Spicy Ahi Poke Bowl. The sides are consistently good, and their Spicy Ahi Poke is unique - I can't put my finger on it, but it's different from other Poke places I've tried. The texture is smoother, fish is fresh, and there's some kind of umami that hits the tastebuds soooooo good! read more

Souza's is a hidden gem for fresh sashimi and poke at a great price. Located in Mapunapuna in the old Kau Kau Grill location, the shop is suited for takeout and probably gets busy during lunch. They offer a variety of sashimi donburi as well as fresh poke, and what really stood out for me was the quality for the price. You can get their "Souza Special" don which includes ahi, chutoro, otoro, salmon, hamachi, and ikura for $27. That is the higher end of their selections, with other combinations of fish being cheaper. My favorite of this combo was actually the chutoro, which was extremely soft and had the perfect amount of marbling. The otoro was on the firmer side but was also excellent. I also got some spicy ahi poke to try, and it had a nice depth of flavor. The freshness of their fish really shines through. Even the sides that come with each bowl are elevated. I especially loved the crab salad and their homemade taegu, which used the more stringy type dried fish and had a sauce that tasted like honey gochujang. While waiting for our food, I saw that they also offer sashimi platters, custom sushi cakes, and a poke nacho bar that can be hired to pop up at events. Prices were on point too! Come here for super fresh fish that outdoes many of the more popular spots. read more

Wow for a little fish house in Mapunupuna this place is awesome! I honesty believe if you don't expect much you won't be disappointed, ha ha I really need to rethink that philosophy. Seeing several check-ins on Yelp then reading the reviews I've been trying to get in but couldn't get there early enough to be assured parking or a fully available menu. Since they're closed Sunday & Monday I felt Tuesday would insure everything would be at its best. I arrived at 10:00 just at opening and scored one of the two parking stalls fronting the business. Walking in it's very small inside...no tables, strictly takeout. I was first in, placed my order for the Fish House Chirashi, half pound of Shoyu/ginger Ahi poke and half pound Spicy Ahi. Waiting for my order to be put together a duo of HPD officers came in wanting to order but were unsure. I was impressed that they were able to try several different pokes and the owner Ryan told them they could make it spicier or less spicy as they wanted. That's good to know. So I took my lunch home and ran off to finish my morning errands. About 1:00 I grabbed the Chirashi and a pair of chopsticks, opened the box and started eating the best sashimi ever! Loved the sushi rice, the scoop of crab salad, the tasty condiments and both the ala carte pokes which I actually bought for g-son Wes who said the same thing I said.....tastes like it just came off the boat. I recommend this place, I'm sure it's busy during work hours in the industrial area so get your orders in early. They're only open 10:00 to 3:00. Wish they were here when I worked in the area. read more

Takeout lunch from Mapunapuna, Honolulu, Hawai'i... Souza's Fish House popped up several times on my Yelp app as a Hot New Business. I was curious, drove over, and found free street parking since the stalls in front of the shop were all taken! This is a cozy, clean, takeout only place. The cashier was efficient and pleasant! I ordered the Trio Deluxe with Otoro, hamachi, salmon, ikura, and akami on a bed of sushi rice and decorated with an imitation crab salad, wasabi, takuan, and a konnyaku/gobo salad. The fish were fresh and firm. The imitation crab salad was a bit odd and the sushi rice was inconsistent - soft, in some places and a few harder grains of rice in other places. There were spots of plain rice and some areas had more flavoring. I might return for the chirashi bowl or a sushi platter. We shall see... read more

Souza is a newest poke store opened on Mapunapuna Street. I drove there at 10am and they're just opened. The store wasn't too big but it's very clean. There are few parkings outside the store as well as street parking. I order Souza Special. Although it costs $27 b it definitely worth it. The sashimi was so fresh. I believe they're using high quality of fish. All the sashimi were melted in my mouth. Highly recommend. I also order spicy ahi poke. It's pretty spicy for me but it's so fresh and delicious. There are different kind of poke you can choose. The funny flavor was Chinese Black and Pepper Ahi Poke. I will try it next time. Don't miss this place. Love it! Good food & good services. read more

Legit fresh and quality sushi, sashimi and poke! The staff are friendly and work quickly to serve up the plates after you order. We got a trio of the 3 types of ahi and a Souza special plate and a half pound of Maui onion crunch ahi poke. The quality of the fish is outstanding for a hole in the wall. The otoro was fatty and melted in my mouth. The chu toro was also very good. The sushi rice is good and I like how they add a few other things like takuan and daikon for texture and crunch. The Souza plate has a good variety of fish and I'll say the best things were the salmon, otoro and ikura. Their Ikura was better than a lot of high end sushi restaurants serve!!! So firm and bursting with flavor. They have fresh wasabi you can get on the side. One of my pet peeves is the "high end" poke shops giving you the cheap-o trash packets of wasabi with your $30 plate. This place steps it up with actual wasabi. This is a semi indulgent way to treat yo'self without breaking the bank. It's not cheap but it's worth it... read more

I've been hearing a lot of great things about Souza's Fish House, so I had to stop by and finally try their poke bowl and it definitely lived up to the hype. Parking in the area can be a bit tough, but there are a few stalls right in front of the shop which helps if you get lucky. Just looking at the poke selection, you can already tell the quality is there. I went with a two choice bowl with Hurricane and Maui Onion Crunch. The bowl also came with crab salad, taegu, and sushi rice. The fish was incredibly fresh honestly some of the freshest poke I've ever had. Both flavors were excellent, and now I'm already planning to go back to try more of their unique options. The only thing I'd change next time is getting regular rice instead of sushi rice, since I'm not a big fan of the texture and sweetness, but I'm still glad I tried it. Souza's is easily one of the top poke spots on Oahu in my opinion, and definitely worth a visit if you're a poke lover. read more

Inexpensive but great quality raw fish in the form of sashimi platters, donburi, and poke. Note: This is a composite review from several visits in late 2025. Sorry no pics. Nothing get's in my way when I'm craving raw fish ie, eating the donburi in the nearby Home Depot parking lot three minutes away. Sashimi and sliced fish for the donburi of excellent quality and proper grading. Natural, not treated with gas. Nicely cut into relatively even slices. The donburis come complete with either a decently seasoned, slightly too wet sushi rice or better yet, plain white rice, and the requisite ginger, takuan, wasabi and shoyu. The "Fish House Chirashi", a combo of akami, chutoro, otoro, hamachi, king salmon, ikura dn hokkaido uni is good intro for just $35 BUT why not, indulge on the good stuff, a chutoro / otoro donburi add ikura and hokkaido uni for just $38. Very well made poke. Trying the familiar "Hawaiian style ahi", recently made (fish is not slimy from being in contact with the shoyu too long), kiss of sesame, and just the right amount of sweet Maui onions. If you see any variation with "Laos" in the name, get it. Fish sauce and spice make everything nice. You're welcome. Local kine friendly service. Some seafood available for grab and go. Party platters available. Advance notice is required. Parking sucks. It's Mapunapuna. Go early or with a wingman to drop you off and pick you up. Great grindz at a great price. read more

Saw a friend post the Souza Special on their instagram and I had to try. Highly suggest putting in a phone order as a lot of people come here. Fish quality is top tier and the fish cut's are chef's kiss. If you're thinking of sharing a sashimi plate... don't. I had one for myself and a friend had ordered one to share with her other half and it left them wanting more. Their spicy ahi is delicious and not over powered by all the seasonings. It was just enough. I would however ask to go light on the unagi sauce as it was too sweet for my liking. Already have came back for more and will def come here whenever I need a sashimi pick me up. read more

I finally got to go to get the fresh sashimi. Small little shop but as soon as you enter, you feel a positive vibe. It's bright and the menu boards are all up. There is a showcase with all their poke to the right of the cashier. Went in early to beat any lunch rush for I didn't want that. Got their trio lunch bento with sushi rice on the side. I also added 1/2 pound of spicy ahi. The poke was delicious and not stringy. The flavor is delicate not too too spicy, but who doesn't own sriracha at home? The bento sashimi was absolutely phenomenal. My elderly parents shared one bento so the price was perfect for two! Even if you were to eat this fish for one, it's a good price for the quality of fish you get. I will definitely be ordering my sashimi platter for Christmas Eve as well as poke. I know it's going to be a hit and everyone will enjoy it so so much. Although it's tucked away in Mapunapuna, it's worth the trip!! read more

I saw Souza's fish house all over Instagram so I had to check them out. Honestly, I thought I've had some pretty good poke but this is some next level stuff. I went once and now I take all of my partners there when in the Mapunapuna area. Each one of them are blown away by the variety and quality of the fish. The flavors they mix are next level and this is the only place I've been buying poke from for the past few months. My go to is the Lao style and salty hawaiian style (can choose either sweet or salty). Their donburis and Souza special are solid too! The staff is always super friendly and knowledgeable about the flavors. Although parking is rather limited there is a good chance you can find some street parking near. Go check em out.

We got the poke nachos with spicy ahi and Souza special. The fish is super fresh. The only thing that threw me off was the they use tortilla chips for the nachos.

Hands down the best poke & sashimi on the island! The fresh premium fish here is better than many high end restaurants. I accidentally stumbled on this place that's only been officially open for around 3 weeks! It's in the former Kau Kau Grill location. It's been a while since I've got excited about a new place. This is my lucky day! I ordered one of the suggestions given which was the Souza Special that was similar to their Fish House Chirashi without the Hokkaido Uni making it less expensive. It had Akami, Chutoro, Otoro, King Salmon, Japan Hamachi, Zuke Ikura. Everything was awesome. Notable was the fatty & buttery Otoro that melted in your mouth. the Chutoro was also pretty good with the balanced marbling. You get a choice of sushi rice or white rice or toss salad plus shoyu, ginger, wasabi, & takuan. You can tell from the cuts and presentation that this was done by an experienced fish cutter. When I opened my takeout box, one look and I knew this was a winner! The super friendly service is amazing. It's run by local people who are helpful with suggestions and provide samples to help you decide. It's take out only but there's a few benches outside to sit on. There's around 3 parking stalls. It's not cheap but pretty reasonable for premium quality fish. Also notable is the impressive catering menu selection. From what I read, this business started out as a catering business for several years. Souza's Fish House is my new favorite fish place! If you love fresh premium sashimi & poke- this place is a must! Go now before this place gets discovered and becomes super busy. I'll definitely be back! read more
