I was given the chance to try Ali'i Poke, and I came away very impressed. The food is fresh, actually made fresh multiple times per day to ensure freshness.This is true Hawaiian-style Poke, and it is absolutely delicious. You also have the option to try different pre-made styles of Poke bowls, or you can create your own for a unique and delicious option.The shaved ice was an unexpected and delicious treat with many flavors to choose from. The shaved ice I had surrounded a scoop of vanilla ice cream and was incredibly delicious!
Poke was delicious. I had the Pele and my wife had the Maui. The Pele was very spicy as advertised, the ginger was very flavorful, and the proteins were great. The Maui was slightly sweet and very refreshing, the cucumbers were particularly goodOur server was very nice and patient with us, my only knock is the Hawaiian ambience is a tad over done, but it's better than no ambience at all.All in all a great meal!
Staff is very friendly and a joy. It was out first time here the poke bowl was delicious and fresh. We also tried a few samples of their shaved ice. Oh so good. Unfortunately I was too full to order some but I would definitely come here for just that treat.
The staff was so friendly and the options were really good! I really enjoyed the food and the service they provided. The options they provided were beyond expectations. I got the marinated salmon, the flavor of the salmon was good however it didn’t taste marinated. The toppings available were great quality and I found out they make most of their sauces are made in house. Overall the poke was really good! The shaved ice was also amazing. I got the classic and would totally recommend getting this, very large portions and the quality of the ingredients also delicious.
Wow. What a great surprise. I don't think of sushi as a meal and I heard that Poke was like a deconstructed sushi roll, so I never gave it a chance. My loss. This was really good. But the description I was given, nails the flavor. I tried mine with octopus which I never tried in sushi, but I enjoyed it. There are several "proteins" to choose from, but all are seafood. These go over a bed of rice or lettuce (or a mix of both). Then a variety of veggies and sauces. It all came together nicely.For dessert they have HUGE bowls of saved ice with sauce and fruit. We had the strawberry and it was very refreshing.
I was already a huge fan of this place since I had gone to their downtown location many times already. I made my own poke bowl with spicy tuna and brown rice as the base. Of course, I got all of the toppings. All of the flavors and textures came together perfectly. I got the miso soup on the side, plus the matcha shaved ice. I expected the shaved ice to be an afterthought of a dish, but it was also a hit! The matcha had such great flavor on the shaved ice and it was topped with chewy balls similar to boba. The most surprising thing about the shaved ice was the little scoop of vanilla ice cream in the center of the shaved ice. I can’t wait for summer to pick up another one.
One of the MOST amazing Poke spots I've ever had outside of Hawaii - definitely amazing for Indiana standards. It was as if we were back in Hawaii again!They have several protein options to choose from, and a wide array of toppings (w/o limits! Big perk). We each had a regular bowl, which has 2 scoops of protein. The proteins we recommend are the spicy tuna, marinated salmon, and the tako (octopus, and it definitely tasted great! Don't be freaked out by it :) ). The toppings offer a lot of variety, but the seaweed salad, scallions, edamame, avocado, and onions are ones you should not miss out from! Must-get sauces include Unagi Sauce, Creamy Miso, and Spicy Mayo. Final garnishes must have sesame seeds and shredded nori - they add so much flavor too. A regular bowl gave us a more-than-full stomach of healthy food for only 13$.Their shaved ice w/ ice cream were also a great dessert. We got the Hawaiian delight, and it had pineapples, fruit flavoring, condensed milk, and a generous scoop of ice cream hidden under a mountain of shaved ice. Despite some potential brain-freezes and chilled-teeth, the shaved ice served as a wonderful desert.Overall, I must recommend Ali'i Poke. The quality of food for both poke and shaved ice are amazing, and very similar to what one may get at Hawaii. Whether you are a local or a visitor, come grab a generous meal at Ali'i Poke.
way to much crab salad for three slivers of cucumber, miso soup has 0 flavor an the bowl was sloppy. Disappointing to say the least.
We love Ali poke and were really happy when they opened one close to home. Fresh poke, great service, clean and spacious restaurant. The store here also sells Hawaiian shaved ice which my kids enjoyed!
Poke is basically sushi in a bowl. It's fresh and healthy. I enjoyed this restaurant and will be back.
