Alicia's Market

Ngl...ive seen this place before, but never entered. Today, my coworker recommend this place for their delicious meat & poke bowl. I thought it was going to be another poke place so I wasn't thrilled to go... When visiting the place, it looked shabby with terrible parking. Regardless we circled the block, parked illegally (lol) and went into the restaurant. The restaurant had a simple layout. Order on the left, then walk to the other side to pay. No seating area, take out only. I got the meat & poke bowl (roast pork & sweet onion shoyu ahi poke over rice) paid and left. We drove 20 mins back to the office and when i tasted my food, surprisingly the roast pork was still very crispy and salty. It complimented my shoyu ahi poke and rice. I liked it very much though their wasn't as much sweet onion in my bowl as I thought. I've had some delicious poke serve simple and made into unique combinations. Of my top 5 poke places like foodland, off the hook and alii fish market. This place is easily on my top 5 favorite places for poke.

Poke looks like previously frozen cuts. It’s the same as what is was before but it’s just not our liking. Most of the poke selection is “sweet” tasting. I tried the “spicy ahi and spicy salmon”, it’s sweeet. The masago wasabi has a little bite, spice which is okay. The “Kim Chee cucumber” is a different sweet flavor, and not “namasu” flavor if that’s what they were looking for, interesting, but not our liking. Poi texture is solid, paste, interesting, maybe freshly pounded, dry, not our liking. Boiled peanuts same tasting, per Myron. Good. Tako in package is a sweet and smokey flavor. Okay. Almost like cuttle fish but when you open package it’s Smokey smell. Char siu is good, tender. Spent 66.96$, see picture.

The roast pork was life changing, you NEED the mustard they offer at the counter. I got the meat+poke bowl with roast pork and the wasabi masago ahi. The portions are generous, the staff is nice. Next time I’m on the island i will be back. Cannot recommend enough.

Forgot to take pics. My recommendations Spicy ahi poke, all poke, crab mac salad, roast beef, charsiu ribs, roast pork, musubis, pork hash, pickled limu, turkey tails, the list goes on.

Came here to grab lunch with my family. Very good sign that locals were lining up. Overall very quick and prompt service. The combination of poke and roast pork was amazing flavor and texture wise. Would definitely come back. A little bit far away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist area but worth the trip. This is a grab and go place so don't expect you know a sit down experience. We took our lunch to the botanical gardens a little bit of a drive away and enjoyed it there

SO SO SO SO SO SO GOOD! Everytime I come to Oahu I try to hit Alicias Market and I finally was able to align with their hours! We ordered half a duck and a bowl with crispy pork & poke. Everything was so fresh. I'll definitely come back any time I am on the island! No seating, more of a grab and go! They do run out of certain items throughout the day so try to arrive sooner than later. There is usually a short line but the staff is very efficient and gets you through the line very quickly!

Awesome locally owned family run shop. The poke is THE BEST you'll find on the island, hands down. We also grabbed some marinated crab and dried aku(ahi jerkey. Highly recommend the Poke combo bowls with a meat, can't go wrong with the char siu or roasted pork belly. Our only regret is not stopping by sooner so we could have had it more than once on our trip.

I like that it’s a quick, chill, quick in and out, and the food is GOOD. I got the roasted pork bowl with abalone poke and was more than happy with the portions and price. Even the leftovers still tast good, especially the ahi tuna. If there’s no parking, take a loop, and there should be one once you come back.

We came last year and since December they have opened up. The third generations is getting it back to running like we remember. The roast pork is excellent and crispy. The bbq pork was good but not sure if I would get that again. I like the bbq pork rib I think better. The poke was good the sweet onion one. Maybe because I like raw onions. The wasabi wasn't bad but I like it elsewhere better for that taste. See my photos lunch in the car.

Alicia. I love you Now I'm not sure if that was the nice lady helping me behind the counter but she was very patient for my friends visiting who were taking their time. She let them sample everything and was such a polite Sauces on each style of poke were the perfect amount. A lot of places put wayyyyy too much mayo on their spicy ahi and this was a coating of that. All you need when you have great flavor and great source of fish Hidden spot on a backroad. Get yourself there NOW

Alicia's Market was our first stop right when a landed from the Philippines. We arrived around noon and parking was simple. We were greeted by young man behind the counter with smile at that piont we immediately felt welcome. We order the following: Meat+Poke- Roast Pork with Masago Wasabi Ahi Poke. Absolutely ONO!! The roast pork a that perfect crispy skin and moist. The poke was fresh and tasty. It has a nice wasabi kick. Meat+ Poke- Roast Pork with Sweet Onoins Shoyu Poke. Delicious!! 2 Choice Poke Bowl- Spicy Ahi and Masago Wasabi Ahi Poke. Super fresh and delicious. Service was fantastic and so friendly. I highly recommend. Overall Alicia's deliver's the Poke craving and the roast pork craving. We will definitely be returning when we come back.

They recently opened half the store, since the fire. I cannot wait, when it will be fully opened, with a full array of poke, plate lunch, okazu, frozen food, barbecue marinated meats, grocery story. Ahhhhhh, Heaven, lol! Lunch time is crazy, but workers are fast and efficient! Call in your order, to beat the lines. Everyone is always welcoming and nice. Everything is clean and brand new. I just can't wait for it to be at its full Glory! If you know, you know. See you there!

Go to Alicia's every time I visit! The crispiest roast pork with a good portion of meat and great variety of poke. Pricing is in line with most other poke establishments but this is the only place you'll find a meat combo option! They also offer a large assortment of local brews.

Meat and poke. What more could you ask for? Both are top tier - all are good, cannot go wrong. Parking is limited. Their spicy tuna is not your typical mayo based - it's their own take and very delicious!

We ordered ahi, salmon, red bbq, macaroni salad, and grilled salmon. Everything was amazing, including the macaroni salad. My all time favorite poke place and would definitely come back! Highly recommend

Awesome food, clean shop, bad parking. The service is straightforward and quick, which I appreciate because when I'm hungry I just want my food asap. My favorite is the combo with crispy pork and wasabi ahi! Hands down the best. This place is moderately priced but well worth the price when you consider the high quality of the food. Although parking is available right in front of the business, the number of stalls are limited and it can get very busy during regular meal times. The ambiance is reminiscent of a convenience store, which half of it is one. Really good food!

I like the turkey tails and the masago poke. Found out the owner is a Michigan fan and they have a big helmet sticker on the wall from when the team visited. Go Blue!

Went back to Alicia's and this place doesn't disappoint! They reopened the store 2 weeks ago and now you can come in here but drinks, snacks, and their yummy poke and meats! I ordered their roast pork and wasabi masago poke bowl which was delish! My co-worker got their charsui and roast beef combo. You gotta try their yummy potato Mac salad too. They also sell Alicia's Market stickers and merch too!

OMG!! UNBELIEVABLE TAKE OUT FOOD!! The service was fast and convenient. I wasn't sure what I wanted for lunch so ordered the futukaki salmon with lemu poke and rice and the other was the same with white sweet onion poke. A side of pork hash that was fantastic! The amount they provide is super filling and some of the best Ono grindz on the island!! Check it out!!

Glad to see Alicia's opened up as a bigger space! Customer service is great and the food is amazing! If I was closer to eat it more often, I would be a happy fat kid hahaha . Don't sleep on this place!! Ono grinds!!

It's so frustrating when you try your best to make it before they close only to find... that you are a few minutes too late. It has happened to me a few times as I land and I try my best to rush there only to be disappointed. I really just want that meat + poke combo, specifically my favorite, roast pork with sweet onion shoyu ahi. Oh the mac salad also. That perfect bite of rice, pork, ahi, and topped with a bit of mac and hot sauce is what I dream about. The charsiu + wasabi masago ahi comes pretty close as another combo, but the roast pork has a special place in my heart. I think I'm batting .200 right now for my combo bowl average.

We always try to come to Alicia's Market whenever we are in town. The Char Siu pork was a little tough. The Tuna was a little salty for our taste. But we would still love to come back to try more choices that we have not tried yet. Everyone should try Alicia's Market for their poke.

Came here to try the poke, and was not disappointed. The fish is so fresh and so tender, and the pricing is pretty reasonable. My favorite is probably the Wasabi Masago Ahi, but their Limu Ahi was also very good. If you like octopus, their Sweet Onion Tako was enjoyable too - not too chewy for octopus. I also tried the Ponzu Salmon, which was not bad - the salmon was a bit on the chewy side, but I still enjoyed it. It's a small space, so you definitely need to take it to go and eat elsewhere.

Alicia's roast pork is the best (even more than Wah Fung's in Manhattan Chinatown). We reminisce about it and come from across the country to get a bite of its audibly crunchy, caramelized, and juiciness! Poke itself is not as delectable as specialized shops around the area but it is still good alongside the saltiness of the pork. We, like many other patrons love the lilikoi slushy with li-hing topping. Its sweetness is balanced by the savouriness of the li-hing and strikes a marvelous little ride to flavortown. They also offer it with ice cream for about a $1.50 extra. The mac salad is excellent. A little on the peppery side and more sweet. It's got little cubes or potato in it that add a texture switch up. Price point is pretty good! We shared a combo bowl meal, slushy, mac salad, for under $25. This joint is exclusively takeout and they're fast and make food fresh. Whether you're stopping by pre/post flight or just dropping by for lunch, it's the move. All staff here are so wonderful and friendly. I love supporting family owned businesses because of the personal touches and warmth. We were greeted and treated like family. Alicia's is truly a gem that cannot be recreated anywhere! We loyally return here and with every trip to the island.

Spicy pastele and spicy poke plate is a winna! Service always good. Prices are wild but whose aren't these days.

Havent been to Alicia's in years. We were in the area and I decided to go there for lunch. Not how I remembered. Inside in VERY small and you now have to wait outside if there are at 3 people in there, thats how small its gotten. Im assuming this happened during covid, not sure. Everything is printed on their door on how to order, that makes it easier. But honestly its so busy, it makes it feel kinda rushed. The wait was way over 20 mins to order and another 15-20 our food. Food was delicious, but for the wait, I expected it to be hot, especially my roast beef. Portions are put in this bowl and for the price it was okay. Please dont get me wrong the food is delicious, but if you're on crunch time or expecting bigger portions for the price, this is not for you. The Poke was good as well.

A little disappointed in today's meat/poke bowl today. I had the wasabi tobiko and roast beef combo. The roast beef was sooo tough. I had to spit out the pieces that were inedible. That was disappointing especially for the price. But on the plus side, The poke was good. And even had a bit of smoked tako on the side which was good.

I came here after a friend recommended this spot, and I can see why it was so hyped up. Located along a strip of other shops, the parking lot can be a bit small and it may be difficult to find parking if it's busy. This shop is strictly a grab-and-go spot, where they only allow 2-3 people in at a time as the space is VERY tight and both take and give your order inside. If you come at a busy time, you might have to wait in a long line, but fortunately, the line tends to go pretty fast. Wait time for your order after you give it to them is minimal. I ordered the char siu and roast pork bowl, and it was delicious. Definitely comfort food and a great portion size, they give you plenty of meat. Their rice is on the stickier side, which I absolutely love for meals like this, and the perfect amount. Both the marinade for the roast pork and char siu were spot-on and delicious, and I could eat it forever. I'm not sure the meat (as in when it was cooked) was the freshest as it was pretty dry and the skin wasn't as crispy as I would have liked, but I didn't mind as it was still good. Highly recommend.

My bf and I came to Alicia's Market after we hopped off the plane as it is close by to the airport. We were recommended this spot from a friend. It's a very small market located in what looks like a bunch of apartments and parking is very limited. We got lucky as a car pulled out of the parking stall on the premise. We got even luckier that was no line because it started to build a bit after we got our food. To say the least, I thought the food here was decent. Nothing in particular really stood out. I ordered the combo for 2 poke: wasabi masago tuna and ponzu salmon. My bf ordered the half roast pork (siu yuk) and spicy ahi tuna. The wasabi ahi tuna poke was by far my favorite out of the 3 we ordered. It had a nice kick! But eventually, all 3 of the poke got a bit too overwhelming because it was so salty. Not sure if it was marinated too long but it was salty. I also thought my bf's roast pork was overly salty too and a bit too fatty. I've had better roast pork so I was not impressed. It also didn't seem fresh - it wasn't warm and the skin wasn't crispy. Not the first meal I was expecting unfortunately. We had to go to Walmart right after to buy water to help quench our thirst from the saltiness.

If you are hungry after landing at Honolulu airport, why not get into Hawaii mode and grab some poke. It's a quick drive down Nimitz Hawaii on the way to Waikiki. I usually request a limu poke bowl (small amounts of seaweed for flavor). The fish is always fresh and they have several varieties. On my most recent trip, I was starving, so I got a one half roast pork bowl. The pork was crispy, tasty, with a moist interior. The market is a hole in the wall but the service is great. Expect a line but it goes quickly. There is a small parking lot in front. Many locals rotate through so that tells you something.

A friend recommended this place to check out. Parking can be really hard to find given the lot is super small and the rest is street parking. The store is a small shop that allows 2-3 max people in at a time. The workers are nice and quick. There's usually a line but it goes by fast. I ordered the half roast pork, half spicy ahi tuna. This was my first meal after landing so I was excited to check out the hype, however, it fell short after the first bite. I was starving so the first bite was a good one, but then the roast pork got extremely salty and was full of fat. The spicy ahi tuna was decent but there are better poke places in Honolulu.

I keep coming to the same spots when I visit Oahu, so on this latest trip I wanted to make it a point to at least try a few new spots. My friend who is from Oahu recommended Alicia's Market and specifically the roast pork. When I pulled up in my car and the place was about as local looking as it could possibly be, I knew we were in business! Decided to go with the meat and poke bowl. Obviously picked with the aforementioned roast pork for the meat, and went with their popular wasabi masago ahi for the poke. I can see why my friend was imploring me to go. That roast pork is SO GOOD! The meat is succulent, and the skin provides amazing flavor and crisp. The wasabi masago ahi was so tasty. It had been a while since I have had true Hawaiian ahi, and eating this just made me remember why I love eating ahi here. Service was great! Everyone in Oahu is always super friendly, and this was no different. They explained the setup and made their recommendations. Really great folks here! Alicia's Market is definitely going to be on my Oahu list going forward.

What more can I say that hasn't already been mentioned? Alicia's Market has been highly recommended to me for several years and I finally had the opportunity to check it out. It is a family-owned business that specializes in poke, char siu, and roasted pork. Overall, I thought the food was solid! Poke was tasty with good flavors, along with their char siu. However, I wasn't a fan of their roasted pork. The skin on the pork wasn't as crispy as I hoped for, it was appetizing but nothing outstanding to me. All in all, Alicia's Market is worth trying out. The market is quaint with no seating, more of an order to-go spot. Parking can be tricky as it shares it's parking lot with several other business. Staff was nice and service was fairly quick.

Alicia's Market in the heart of Kalihi is always a must!! Located southern part of Kalihi, straight down Mokauea, pass Nimitz Highway and you should be able to see the Alicia's Market sign on the left. Bruhhh their roast pork and poke combo is killaz. I got the roast pork and sweet onion shoyu ahi and got the wife roast pork and the wasabi masago ahi poke. I enjoyed mines, as she did hers. It's only take out, no dine in. Unless, you dine in your car outside the store, more better eat em fresh yah. It's like grab and go, you walk in and the poke display is right there. Menus visible every where and so much options to choose from. Employees were nice, as is any other business, right when you walk in "hi, how can I help you?" Lol. But yah, you gotta try Alicia's. 10/10 recommend. Would we come here again? Yes.

If you're craving Poke and in Kalihi, stop by Alicia's! It's a hole in the wall off of Mokauea Street. There's no seating area anymore so there's a line outside to let 2-3 guests in at a time to order. I tried their shoyu poke, crispy pork, and snagged a fresh kulolo. Drool. It was pricey, but super delicious! There's parking in the front and side street parking also. Definitely check them out! Happy Eats

Alicia's Market is one of those hole-in-the-wall eateries that mostly locals know and patronize. They specialize in poke, other seafood & roast pork. I am a vegetarian so that leaves me with Kulolo, boiled peanuts, and slushes to consume. I've only ever had their slushes & they are good.

Not at all worth the overall 20-30 min drive from the resort, depending on what time you hit traffic. The food was just like Liliha Bakery, on how every islander is raving about that these are their main two go-to spots. Well expectation didn't match reality. And while it did fill me up, it was only because I didn't want to be wasteful. I hate when I purchase something, only to immediately toss it directly in the garbage. It must be a thing on the island, where everyone wants to big up every small local chain, that's nowhere near any of the shops or restaurants near the main tourist traps. All stars deducted.

Stopped by and ended up getting a roast beef plate with masago poke and boiled peanuts. Al though the roast beef was bloody and lacked flavor and the masago ahi poke cubes were hard.... Let's give it up for the BEST BOILED PEANUTS EVERRRRR!!!! Well ok the flavor is BOMB however it needs to be boiled a tad bit longer.

Alicia's takes you back a few decades to what Hawai'i used to be! This spot is the epitome of a "hole in the wall", taking you back to what Oahu was in the 80's. Granted that it's now takeout only, make sure you have a place in mind to enjoy the food. Speaking of the food, I went with the Roast Pork Belly and the Char Siu Ribs combo bowl. The roast pork had great crispy skin and the meat was moist. The char siu ribs were exceptional. Also had the Mac salad which is quintessential Hawaii! Service was quick and the kid running the register was friendly and awesome!

We come here so often I didn't realize I never left a review before! We always get their bowls, with all kinds. Today we got the salmon and spicy ahi it's good satisfied my hunger! Also the li hing slush with icecream is our go to! Favorite slushie float of all time!!! They are also so nice here and they are super quick with service! It's a small shop, not like before when it was big but it's same great foods and service!!!

There was a line when we went to visit, but so impressed by how quickly the line went. There was a nice lady taking the orders outside, and theyll call you up once your order is ready. It didnt take long at all! Roast beef was flavorful and tender and the charsui was well seasoned! Definitely get their baked salmon and cream slush! Always a must when we are in Oahu!

First time trying Alicia's Market, and the poké bowl was top-notch 10/10. I would definitely recommend the roasted pork and wasabi masago ahi poké bowl. I love the fact that Alicia's does meat+poké bowls. The roasted pork skin was crispy and the meat was moist. The wasabi masago ahi was also just as good. The interior space is a bit small, but their service is like a well oiled machine, quick and efficient. I ordered, paid, and received my food in under 2min. I'll definitely be coming back.

One of the best poke places on the island. It never disappoints. This is a must try. They serve lunch bowls with different options, poke only, poke and meat with rice. They offer options such as Char Siu pork, duck, etc. and other sides (Mac salad, pickles, seemed salad).

I heard a lot of good things about this place so I came to try for the first time during lunch hour. It's a bit small in the store and limited parking so I would just come early if you don't want to come when it's busy or if you want parking. The workers are so friendly and quick. I enjoyed the service I received here. I ordered the meat + poke bowl. Reasonable prices. I got the roast pork and spicy ahi poke -- it was WAY better than I thought it was gonna be. The pork was so juicy and the crunch is crispy! One of the best roast pork's I've had. The spicy ahi poke wasn't really spicy, which I liked, because I don't like when it's too spicy. The ahi was so tender and fresh! I loved it! I can't wait to come back again and try other things! SOOOOOO ONO! Highly recommend!

Long line but it was quick to get food. There was a lot of variety of food. I inhaled my other food so didn't get a picture of it. There's no dining. It's pick up and move out the way kind of place. It was really crowded even though people waited o

Delicious surprise that your mouth will thank you for! Great find! Never would have thought to combine poke and pork belly, but it's amazing .Meat + Poke Bowl (chose the Pork belly + Wasabi Masago) which came with rice on the bottom. Very filling. .Pastele are similar to the concept of tamales and also shaped like a tamale at this location. Not a stew. Has masa and bananas and wrapped in banana leaves Parking could be tough because the lot is a bit small

The food was amazing! Roast beef was 5/5. Perfectly seasoned, tender and cooked to perfection. The roast pork 4/5 was flavorful also but the skin could be crunchier. Some of the pieces were but not all. Siumai was good 4/5. The poke was just what I needed. Sweet onion Shoyu was 4/5 but was good. To be fair, I have a sensitive taste to salty food. The spicy ahi was 5/5. I'm glad we had a long lay over in Oahu to try this place. The service was exceptional. Everyone is courteous and friendly as well as efficient. The ambiance was ok considering it's a grab and go place. Nowhere to eat their onoliscious food. We will definitely be back again when we're in the island.

So ono! I never thought about pairing roast meats with poké, but here's Alicia's Market doing it and doing it well. We tried this place on our last trip and knew that we had to come back. This time, it was even better. We both got roast pork as our meat. The meat is juicy and the skin super crispy. Full disclosure, I'm not usually a roast pork fan but theirs have a right amount of fattiness and leanness for me. The limu poké had lots of limu and was tasty! The market is small and fits 4-5 ppl at one time. That's why you'll see a line outside the door. But service is fast and the bowls are made right away.

A hole in the wall with super fresh poke and fantastic meat choices. I chose the meat and poke bowl with limu poke and roast pork. It was super fresh and very tasty. The crispy skin of the roast pork made it seem right out of the oven. The meat was tender and juicy with no bones! The containers are smaller than they used to be pre-covid with the portions still filling you up!

Really good poke. I really liked their crab poke it was the right amount of spicy. The crab just slides out of its shell. So tasty. I would definitely come back again.

if you like your poke on the sweet side - here is the place to go. I didn't realize they only had previously frozen fish - so if you don't mind that then they have some pretty tasty sauces I love hokkigai but wasn't a fan of their version, too sweet and tangy. the imitation abalone was pretty good. I used to love their roast beef/pork poke bowls but haven't tried it this past time - it was actually my first time going to this side of alicia's so there were a lot less options. I would try again to do some poke pork bowl - maybe not the poke itself for me personally. service was nice and fast. ambiance - hole in the wall, which that part I love - and clearly other people love it because the line was long.

This place is amazing. Parking can be hard to find (we got lucky when we arrived but there was a line of people waiting to park and waiting to get in by the time we left). Best char sui pork I've had on island thus far. It's cooked perfectly, flavor is great. The price per pound is a steal too. The roasted pork was okay to me. I'm a huge texture person so I didn't like the fat/ extra crispy skin personally but the flavor was incredible. Dipping it in the shoyu mustard, chefs kiss perfection, but sadly I wouldn't get it again just based on my own texture preferences. The poke here is hands down my favorite. Thick chunks of fish, flavors are powerful without over powering the fish. My favorite part: they don't give you 3/4ths a bowl of rice!! It was the perfect amount of rice vs poke. $12.95 for a bowl was a steal too. I've had bowls up to $22 and they have not been as good as this place. It's a small family owned LOCAL business. You have to take your food to go but honestly we didn't care. This is my new favorite spot on island. You won't regret coming here.

Our first stop for poke in Oahu! Limited parking spots and there's only takeout available! We ordered the wasabi masago ahi and spicy ahi with the furikake rice. The spicy ahi was our favorite- a little sweet and mild spice with just enough tang! So good with the rice. The fish was super fresh.

Still one of my fave places for a poke bowl but it's kinda pricey now. Oh well, that's the price for fresh fish. Just won't stop here often anymore, but it's still worth the stop if you're in the area! They're back in their old spot now but it looks a little different. Poke was good, roast pork was okay.

Their tip jar is so cute: raising money for Disneyland for their little girl. I truly hope it is fundraising for her trip to Disneyland! Anyways to the food: The potato Mac salad, I wish it was real crab and less peas. Otherwise it's still delicious! Almost made me want a bigger portion, but with the poke bowl, it was enough to be just right kinda full. The lime calamasi drink - skip the ice cream. It made it way too rich and overly sweet. I loved my poke bowl. I didn't have enough rice(!) haha. I got the green onion ahi and the ponzu salmon and all delicious! Tasted fresh. Nice chunks of fish. My SO got the sweet onion tako and the wasabi masago ahi which I thought were good. However I wasn't a big fan of wasabi in general so I'm not the best judge. He enjoyed it tho!

We stopped by here right after we got off the plane and we started off our trip strong. Alicia's Market primarily sells poke and house prepared meats, and the texture of their poke is amazing, like no other we tried on Oahu. The flavors of the poke were great, and my personal favorite was the shoyu ahi because of the hint of sweetness. The dishes paired well with the ling hing (sour plum powder) slush that we also got.

Stopped by here for some poke on the go. Very small place for takeout only. I got a combo of Tako and cha siu. It was quite disappointing because the cha siu was so dry, it was like jerky. It was so hard to eat that I barely touched more of it. The tako was tender which was good but it was quite salty. Not sure what happened to my meal since they have good reviews - my husband also wasn't a fan of the items he got in his bowl either.
