Hou Fish Market

This place is amazing! We ordered different types of sushi, and they were all delicious. We also had the chicken teriyaki, and the chicken was really good. The only thing missing was a baby seat—they don’t have any high chairs for babies. The price was fair for the quality and service they offer.

Amazing food. We came back for the second time since last trip. Their seared salmon bowl is the best. The fish is fresh and one of the few places near Waikiki that provide decent indoor seating.

Clean, new-ish place with lots of parking, lots of glass which is helpful since they are in a bit of a dark corner under the Public Storage building. Had a hard time finding the place. Park in in lot for the big Public Storage building off Kapiolani across from McKinley High School. Go around the right side of the building, past the AT&T store and it's in the corner. Friendly service. English is not their mother tongue. Poke is good quality. Price is about average.

There is seating and you can bring about four or five people per table. There’s also seating outside. It’s a really cool area of dying with family, friends or coworkers and also there is parking lots of parking right behind. It is literally connected within the storage building. literally it is located across McKinley high school’s football field. It is such a jam. They have really good fish there. The ambience is calm. It’s pretty quiet and next-door they have other high-end restaurants. This is a really good area to be in if you want to hang out with people visiting and or just bonding.

Excellent poke. There isn’t much to say: The rice is well-seasoned, the sauce is tasty, and the fish is both tasty and generous. Portion size is perfect, in my opinion. Smoothie was good, but the paper straw disintegrated too easily. Environmentally-friendly but not very usable.

High quality sushi. Amazing sear on the cooked pieces. 10/10. In Honolulu and need wallet friendly, tasty pieces? Come here over everywhere else. As an Asian I know what good sushi is, and this is it.

Relaxing and nice interior. Delicious food. I got the spicy tuna bowl. Great signature Milk tea also. It was all great and peaceful environment.

An unassuming nice little restaurant with quality fresh food. We enjoy their salmon bowl and assorted sushi and sashimi. Nearby street parking free on Sunday.

​Rating: Our vendor had catered lunch for us by them yesterday and they absolutely crushed it! The vendor ordered 4 large sushi platters and everyone was impressed. ​The variety was excellent and the presentation was beautiful--you could tell right away that the fish was incredibly fresh. The taste was spot on and exactly what we were looking for. ​It's great knowing they have convenient locations in both town and Waipahu. This is definitely going to be our go-to spot for future catering. Highly recommend if you need fresh, high-quality sushi for a group!

Food: I had a sukiyaki bowl with a tuna roll costing a little over $20. I left satisfied having room for dessert but not at all starving feeling hungry. Flavors were as expected for the items I got. Service & Ambiance: Service was fine. I called ahead the day before because I was concerned about seating, and when I arrived the staff had already set up a table based on my request, which I appreciated. Inside seating is limited, with about 10-12 seats total, while the outside has around three tables with 2-4 chairs each. Ordering and payment is done at the counter, but they will deliver the food to you at your table. Water cups were provided upon request with our order, though the cups are small and there's no self-serve water station. Tables are self-cleanup it seemed, and all food is served in disposable containers. Overall, this place feels more geared toward grab-and-go rather than a full dine-in experience.

Had the spicy ahi poke bowl with sushi rice. The ahi was fresh and cut nicely, with a mild spicy kick that wasn't overpowering. Sushi rice was warm and decently seasoned, which paired well with the fish. Portion was filling and everything tasted fresh. Nothing over the top, but solid and reliable if you're in the mood for a simple poke bowl. I'd order it again.

I had a late lunch with my hubby here this past Wednesday. I got the chirashi bowl $22.95 and he got the teriyaki chicken bowl $16.95. We also shared a brown sugar milk tea $6.95. The chirashi bowl was great. The fish was firm and fresh. The fish slices were thick. They had sushi rice instead of just white rice. It came with three slices each of hamachi, ahi and salmon. It had two slices of egg and squid and a piece of shrimp. It was topped with ikura. I didn't try the teriyaki chicken bowl, but it was on the smaller side for the price. The brown sugar milk tea was also very good. It was creamy, refreshing and not overly sweet. I will definitely be back for another chirashi bowl.

Big fan of seared salmon bowls...I was actually in the area running errands at South Shore Market place. I was craving a seared salmon bowl and was looking forward to going to Ocean's Taste but they were closed. Looked on Yelp for the next best thing and found this place! I have been to the location in Waipahu and I will say this location is equally as awesome despite the smaller space. I dined it and ordered the seared salmon bowl, which was amazing. I was the only person inside but there were a handful of people coming in to pick up their takeout order or placing an order while I was eating. I parked in the Self-Storage parking lot behind the building (orange roofs) and then walked around the corner to Hou Fish Market. This place is a bit $$ but worth it. I would come again!

I recently ordered from Hou Fish Market and had a fantastic experience! I tried the Aloha Platter and the Sashimi Salad Platter, and both were absolutely fresh and flavorful. The sashimi was melt-in-your-mouth quality, and the variety in the Aloha Platter made it perfect for sharing. The online ordering system was simple and intuitive, making the process stress-free. Pickup was quick, and the staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the overall positive experience. If you're looking for fresh seafood with great service, Hou Fish Market is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommend both platters!

Takeout lunch from Honolulu, Hawaii... My friend and I needed lunch before a movie. We chose Hou Fish Market because it was relatively close to the Consolidated Ward Theater and had free parking in the Self Storage lot around the corner. Service was efficient and polite. We decided to take our food to go instead of dining in (there's outdoor and indoor seating) because we had some time to go somewhere else for bubble tea. We were the only customers on a Sunday afternoon! I ordered the Aloha Bowl. Everything tasted fresh and looked colorfully beautiful! The ahi, salmon, avocado, crab salad, ginger, and seaweed salad were all tasty. I didn't need to use shoyu because the sushi rice was seasoned well! I would return!

There is plenty parking in the back. Love that they have online ordering. We got the Kapiolani platter. The torched garlic ahi and salmon nigiri was the best thing in the platter. I wish there was more. Sushi tasted good. My husband wished there was more spicy ahi on the California rolls. Will be back to try the bowls!

Hou Fish Market has great poke bowls! My go to is their seared garlic salmon bowl. It always tastes fresh and love the torched pieces of salmon covered in yummy garlic mayo!!! Definitely recommend ordering online so that it's ready when you get there. There's also a bunch of tables inside if you prefer to eat your bowl right away :) Parking is in the back - same lot as the storage and AT&T so it's never an issue!

Tried this poke bowl place for the first time today after my work meeting. We picked up a mix salmon deluxe bowl and the dragon roll. This place was pretty popular for takeout because as I was deciding on what to get, 2 people came in to pick up their food. After I finallllyyy decided on what to get, we waited for a short while and the food was ready. We took it back to the office to eat while we continued working and it was the perfect lunch work meal. My poke bowl was fresh and had a generous amount of shoyu ahi poke, crab salad, cucumbers, avocado, and salmon. The poke was lightly seasoned with shoyu and didn't overpower the other items in the bowl. Surprisingly, I liked the crab salad too. There are plenty of open tables for people to dine in and normally, we would have if we didn't have to work. The staff was friendly and patient with me while I was deciding on what to order too.

I've been wanting to check this place out since they opened as they were located right across my alma mater. I finally made my way with Emily R. when I was visiting Hawaii. It's located in the building where the Public Storage and AT&T reside across of McKinley High School on Kapiolani Blvd in Ward. There's a parking lot with ample stalls in the back of the building on Kamakee St. There's a small dining area in the shop where they'll serve you. It was kind of confusing as it seemed like a takeout spot and sit anywhere that's open. Not too sure. But Emily and I were both served by one of the workers. I got their Seared Salmon Bowl with Crab Salad (extra $2), and the portions were beautifully assembled and huge (peep at pics)! What a deal for the amount of food we got, I would say! I don't think the fish was the freshest but still very good as the seared mayo with the unagi sauce added soooo much flavor, YUM! The crab salad wasn't overly mayo-y either, giving the perfect balance to the heavy unagi flavor. It was quite good that I came back another time during the another trip to get it again because I was craving it! It also helped that they opened quite early as well. Overall, a great place for a decent priced sushi, sushi platters, and kaisendons/specialty bowls. Would love to come back to try their spicy ahi bowl in the future. There are a lot of competitions around the area so it's definitely based on preference!

Dec 26, 2025 excellent, tasty and fresh sushi and bowls, platters, etc. fast, efficient and courteous service right price! clean and bright interior, welcoming free convenient parking good locations variety of choices five stars out of five!!!!! healthy, non fattening (but if you prefer, how about some gelato for dessert *****

The poke bowls at Hou Fish Market are very good. They are made to order using fresh Fish. I like it here, not only for the selection, but because there is inside and outside seating, free parking behind the storage facility and a dog menu! I didn't have my dog taste test it, so she can't give it a review. Maybe next time. Along with the usual poke bowls, there are platters, udon, and salads. And, there are lots of drinks... milk teas, fruit teas, and smoothies.

Got the seared salmon bowl and nan let me just say that it is unlike anything I ever tasted before! Truly unique and amazing! If u like cooked salmon and poke, it's a perfect combination of the two and the sauce is creamy and savory. Definitely would get it again! 5 stars! I also got the spicy tuna and milk tea boba $20 combo. I believe the $20 combo only applies to just those two combined. But I will say both were above average for their category and for the price, I wouldnt mind getting it again. There's plenty of seating inside and outside and you can park in the back where the storage parking lot is. Love the place and will definitely come again :)

Hou Fish Market is a great spot to grab a quick, fresh bite of fish. To me, it's similar quality to Domo Cafe but they have more variety plus the seared salmon bowls that I love. I placed an online order and it was ready in 15 minutes tops. I love that they're open on the later side which is rare for a poke place. I got the seared salmon bowl, which comes with a generous portion of salmon and their addictive garlic mayo, seared just right. There's seating inside plus a variety of Asian snacks and drinks to supplement your meal. I will definitely keep coming back here! Next time I need to try their milk tea, I've been meaning to try it and saw that they offer a combo deal with a spicy ahi bowl.

Best sushi in town! Their party-size platters are amazing--super fresh, beautifully arranged, and perfect for gatherings. The portions are generous, the flavors are clean, and everyone at our party loved it. Great service and great value. Highly recommend!

Got a pretty basic sushi combo. The fish was fresh and delicious though. This place is always relatively quiet (not it a bad way) and the employees are friendly. I'll definitely be back again

Ambience is simple but food is packed with flavor and very good quality and very fresh! The Sukiyaki udon was flavorful and rich without being greasy-beef were tender and udon noodles were cooked just right-bouncy. Good value! The aloha bowl-very fresh salmon and tuna, and rice was cooked well too, the only thing is i wish it had more fish. Passionfruit green tea was very refreshing. Passion fruit tasted good without tasting artificial, and had floral notes too and citrusy because of the lime slices. Service was fast! Parking at Home Depot area.

Reasonably priced, very fresh poke bowl, had the spicy tuna bowl and I will be back, 6 stars out of 5 . Truly local place , check it out

Clean, new-ish place with lots of parking, lots of glass which is helpful since they are in a bit of a dark corner under the Public Storage building. Had a hard time finding the place. Park in in lot for the big Public Storage building off Kapiolani across from McKinley High School. Go around the right side of the building, past the AT&T store and it's in the corner. Friendly service. English is not their mother tongue. Poke is good quality. Price is about average.

I love how fresh and clean the sashimi is at Hou Fish Market! I thoroughly enjoyed my sashimi (tuna, salmon, hamachi) salad this evening! So Oishi and satisfying, and I also enjoyed the fresh & crispy salad with miso dressing too. I'm on a keto diet, so this meal was perfect! Loved it from beginning to end, and I can't wait to come back again very soon! Mahalo nui loa!

Tucked away on the maki side of Kapiolani Blvd and Kamakee St this sushi restaurant has small indoor seating area and slightly larger outdoor eating area. Geared more towards takeout orders the selection is quite extensive with reasonable pricing although it does add up quickly when you are Ono for some fresh sushi. Service is speed is reasonable for the limited amount of staff available during our visit on a Sunday evening. The sushi dishes tasted fresh, although at the prices I'm sure it's previously frozen Ahi, a good selection from regular sushi, rolls and bowls are available. Only soda and some smoothies milk teas with or without boba are available, if you want any alcoholic beverages you'll need to BYOB. Friendly service, great selection, and reasonable prices to satisfy that sushi food fix I would recommend this location especially prior to any events being held at the Blaisdell just across the road.

This place has become my go-to for a quick and easy dinner. The workers here are friendly and there's something on the menu for everyone. They have poke bowls, salads, teriyaki bowls, udon, and more. I tried a couple of different things but I keep going back to their seared salmon bowl. I'm usually a spicy ahi girl but their salmon is so tasty and fresh. They even have a variety of different drinks. I only tried their mango smoothie so far and it is so yummy! There's a bunch of parking in the lot but it's close enough to me where I can simply walk. I can't wait for my next bowl :)

Hou Fish Market offers an extensive menu of salads, fish bowls, maki rolls, nigiri, udon, and platter meals - they also have boba available. We came here to grab a quick lunch, ordering a Mix Hamachi Deluxe Bowl, a Sashimi Deluxe Bowl, and a Hou Fish Platter that came with 32 pieces. While the portions are generous, the fish was just okay - it could have been more fresh, as some had a fishy taste/odor to them. Staff were friendly, and the ambiance inside is super casual. +not-so-fresh fish

Staff was really nice but quality of the fish wasn't great. Most pieces had next to no flavor. Wouldn't go back unfortunately

Where can you get a sashimi platter without reservations on New Years Eve? That's right, nowhere...except here! Thank goodness not too many people know about this place yet because I was able to order a sashimi platter with 27 pieces (see pic) over the phone on New Years Eve for $52.95 Better quality than Kozo, Aloha Sushi and other similar "fast food" sushi places. I also ordered the nigiri combo, udon set, and teriyaki chicken bowl too. Great place to grab quick meals. Online ordering wasn't working so I had to call to place the order. I would order again from here for my next party.

2nd time ordering Hou Fish Sushi Platter - 32 pieces. Great quality nigiri and decent prices! Mahalo!

Reasonably priced and decent poke spot in Kakaako. My favorite is their garlic salmon, hamachi, tuna, ebi nigiri set (2 pcs of each for $15) - the fish is all slightly seared and some pieces are topped with a glaze or mayo. Love the contrast of the warm tops with the room temp sushi rice beneath. Definitely a nice change of pace from the usual poke over rice if you're looking for something a little different. The udon was disappointing, the broth was so light it was nearly tasteless, but the noodles cooked well. Would def pass on the udon next time. Service is good but can be a little slow during peak times so would call ahead if you can, they run a busy takeout side. They also seem to do a lot of large platters for parties and offer specials/discounts on their website.

Been going here for the past 2 years and it is my absolute fave. I get the Hou Melody Bowl (shoyu) each time. Unfortunately prices have increased in the past two years, but i think it's worth it considering it comes with ahi, hamachi, AND salmon. My favorite shoyu poke bowl on the island.

We passed by Hou Fish Market so many times and finally decided to try it! Located right by the AT&T and Public Storage facility, this shop is unassuming and truly a hidden gem. We order sushi platters here and they've never failed to disappoint. The fish quality is fresh and the sushi rolls are always packed. I always place my orders using their website. It's helpful that you can order ahead too, especially on the weekends and holidays when they tend to get busy.

We visited Hou Fish Market on a whim since we were in the area, and I was surprised to see the huge variety of poke bowls, sushi, sashimi and udon. We got the Hou Melody Bowl, Rainbow Roll and Torched Salmon Bowl. I really liked the torched salmon, because of all the charred flavors and fattiness of the salmon pieces. The Hou Melody Bowl had way too much shoyu that it was practically drowning in it, and the Rainbow Roll was okay, nothing special there's a few tables inside and outside, but since it's a little sketchy outside I'd suggest eating inside or taking it to go. You can park at the Self Storage parking right behind the shop.

Delicious and good quality sushi for a casual fast kine setting!! We tried the deluxe salmon and spicy ahi bowl (added seaweed salad for $2). It comes with crab salad and avocado. Tamago nigiri is hubby's fav so he had to get that (said it was good). The spicy ahi was really good quality fish- melts in your mouth and not covered in overpowering sauce and mayo. Salmon was fatty and fresh. Spicy ahi inari we're also yummy! BYOB. Dog friendly. Parking galore. Really nice service and they make your order fresh. All wonderful things that get this to a 5 star rating.

I stopped by Hou's Fish Market on the way to having a mini picnic with my fiancé. The service is quick for grab and go. We waited around 5 minutes or so for them to put together our seared salmon bowl. There's indoor or outdoor tables to eat Parking is convenient too in the lot where the storage is. The fish here is pretty fresh and good tasting and portions aren't too bad. I love that the sushi rice isn't piping hot. Personally, I hate when hot rice cooks the poke, but the rice isn't NOT warm either, haha. I would come again if I'm in the area!

First time here. My wife had a hamachi poke salad ($17.95) and I had a salmon poke salad ($16.95) with optional crab salad ($2). They came with avocados and a sesame dressing. The portions were very generous and tasted extremely fresh and delicious at a very reasonable price. Plenty of free parking in the back behind the Public Storage building. Very small restaurant with a few tables inside and outside, nothing fancy but comfortable. Order at the front counter. The workers were very courteous and helpful. Didn't see a restroom. We frequently eat at different poke restaurants where we're from and Hou Fish Market is one of the best we've ever eaten at. We will definitely come again.

I ordered their hamachi kama with spicy poke and my husband ordered their beef sukiyaki. I crave hamachi kama and not that many places makes them. Im impressed that this little sit down or take out place even offers it. I highly recommend this place. So ono! Also we did for here and the staff bought our drinks (strawberry banana smoothie, and calamansi juice) they were super good as well. Oh as for the beef sukiyaki it was really good. Do not let this small take out joint fool you, highly recommend.

I have ordered the sushi deluxe platter twice within the last month for two different occasions. Both times, people have come up and commented "this is the best takeout sushi I've ever eaten." I agree, so HOU FISH MARKET on Kapiolani is my Fav for takeout sushi platters for the time being. The quality of the seafood on top of the rice is better than what you get elsewhere. Prices are reasonable and service execution has been spot on. I just call it in and it's ready when I get there. It's a beautiful, clean little outlet with a convenient parking lot. I'll need to try the Waipahu location closer to home next.

A place to get affordable poke bowls. It's next to the high school so a lot of high school kids come here too. Their fresh was fresh, but I wouldn't say it was of the top quality. The prices were very reasonable. It's a good stop to get your sashimi fix at a good price point. The staff were friendly too and the food came out quickly. There were tables inside and a few outside too if you want some fresh air. Their menu was quite extensive for a small shop like this. They got nigiris, rolls and soup noodles too! It might be hard to find at first. It's tucked in the back of the small plaza but it's the corner of Kapiolani and Kamakee St.

Came here for an early dinner with a friend one day and I'm glad she recommended this place! We both got the seared salmon bowl with a side of crab salad. For the price and the amount, it's such a good deal! At the end of the meal, we were stuffed! There's a few seats to sit and eat inside. The service was fast and good. The worker was very helpful answering our questions since it was both our first times. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a good hole in the wall spot.

We ordered a sushi platter and it was absolutely marvelous. Super friendly service and it was ready on time. We would highly recommend their convenient location and very yummy sushi.

A good lunch for us. We purchased the seared salmon bowl and carried it home. There is alot of mayo on the salmon would be the only caution, at least on our bowl. The price and quality was pretty standard. Overall good for a quick bite! They also exist on UberEats :) One thing I didn't see on the menu that they offer is a seared ahi bowl, but it is an extra $1. For what its worth, in my experience they offer a lot of discounts that come and go monthly, so ask at checkout and they might have something to knock a few $$ off!

Thank you for a delicious meal and lovely service! Great atmosphere. Fresh fish and salad

I first heard of this place because of their Valentines special. I begged.... or coerced... or manipulated someone to get me their Valentines special (see photo). I would have never known this place existed if it wasn't for their Valentines special. I just wish they would have their valentines special as their regular menu item. LOCATION: Off of Kapiolani Blvd., across McKinley High School, next to AT&T PARKING: You can park in the AT&T and Self-Storage parking lot. There's always lots of parking in this area. SERVICE: The girls that work here are so sweet! Wish I could put them in my pocket and take them home with me haha COST: I'd say their poke is about average price and affordable. FOOD: The quality of their fish is pretty fresh! The consistency of their rice was spot on too. Their store also has tasty drink options which I forgot to pick up when I was there. Their bowls and bento options are really good! Also, the store has some tables inside and out that you can use to enjoy their food. I'm really glad this place popped up, because its at a convenient location, away from the mall traffic and the quality of their fish is good. Definitely coming back here again.

I walked half an hour to and from my job to finally try one of their poke bowls. I've actually come here twice so it's a good time for a review. Back in December, I believed I ordered their Aloha Platter because I remember the seared nigiris. Perfect size for a group of 12. I remember the fish being fresh and still tasted fresh after sitting on the dining table for a hot minute so that's good. Last week, I wanted to kill time at work so decided to make the journey to get a poke bowl. I opted for the seared salmon bowl because I love ordering that at other places. Hou Fish's seared salmon bowl isn't my favorite compared to others I've tried. It's good, but I think the unagi sauce is too sweet for my taste. Regardless, the salmon was still fresh and buttery with every bite so that's a plus. The sear was great and even but idk, I couldn't get past the sweet unagi, but that's just me! I'd recommend this place if you're ever in the area. I see the other reviews that they have dog options. Love that concept! Hopefully next time I come, I can run into some doggy customers or even bring my own.

My sister highly recommended this place after randomly finding it one day after she had missed the bus and really wanted to go back so we ended up all going for dinner together at around 7pm. Having had some bad luck with sushi/poke at some other highly rated (and pricey) places on the island, I was a bit skeptical. However, I was very very wrong! This place has some insanely good quality fish at a very reasonable price. I've always been a salmon lover over tuna just because salmon is usually a lot more buttery and smooth than tuna is but the tuna here was surprisingly really tender! I also always say that the sushi rice will make or break a dish and the rice here did not disappoint. It was seasoned very well and complimented the fish perfectly. We ended up getting the Mixed Salmon Deluxe Bowl with the spicy option and the Seared Salmon Bowl and both were extremely delicious! We also ended the night with Jasmine milk tea with regular sugar level that was freshly brewed. The boba was nice and soft and the flavor of the drink was light but tasty and definitely on the less sweet side. Highly recommend coming here for some insanely delicious poke! I'll for sure be coming back especially since it's close to where I live!

The day before Thanksgiving where I get to cook traditional foods, such as Turkey, stuffing and so on, I figure I would like to treat myself to take out. I was intrigued of this place after seeing a partnership advertisement on Instagram. I pre ordered online about a week ago for a hamachi donburi (I really loved) I added massago (orange fish eggs) and Hou Fish market pre-mixed the raw hamachi with shoyu-wasabi. I was kind of let down with the ohana platter I ordered. Presentation was up and service of getting food on time was on point. I just thought the sushi rice they used was not well marinated. The shrimp tempura used in the dragon maki with unagi on top and tempura roll with spicy ahi on top was mediocre. What I feel could of been better was the tempura being more crispy. Upon getting home and enjoying dinner with family. The bites were more on the soft chewy side. Not sure if they leave their shrimp tempura out that day due to being busy with a lot of orders. What I really enjoyed was the garlic torched Mayo on the ebi nigiri. California maki with the imitation crab was also delicious. I kind of wish they used a Cali maki as a base instead of the tempura now. They also made the portion well. I would suggest to eat sushi same day. After parking in the lot behind of the restaurant (near the self storage), the place was easy to find in front facing McKinley High School. They have a cozy space for patrons to dine in. Furniture is on modern side and vibe is causal. While I came in to acknowledge I was there for my pick up there was two people eating who looked like they were enjoying their sushi order. This restaurant has many options and so I would like to try again on a time where it's not a holiday. Like I said the hamachi was bomb! The clerk who also made the platter came up and handed me my order in hand. That was very thoughtful.

Spicy Ahi Bowl! YUM! Decided to try this out today and they did not disappoint.. First of all, Portion size Reasonable! Salmon Bowl was absolutely fresh but my favorite is the Spicy Ahi Bowl. Service was amazing! Ambiance was cute and very clean! A lot of tables to sit inside or dine outside as well. Great place to study and enjoy Milk Tea + Boba ~ They have many options, fresh ahi and lots of beverages. Highly recommend trying this place if your in the area! Located next to AT&T & Storage. Lots of parking and such a convenient location.

Hou Fish Market is located on Kapiolani Blvd, right by the Public Storage. There is a free parking lot in the back of the building! I live close to this location so I usually walk over. The shop is pretty small - just a few tables inside & a few more outside. It's also very clean inside! We do takeout from Hou fairly often. We really like their seared salmon bowl. I like to add extra ikura on there because.. why not? lol. We also really love their gyoza. The gyoza reminds me of how my parents used to make it so maybe it's just nostalgic. Anyways, the dipping sauce is vinegary which I like (add some chili crunch.. extra yum)! Recently (Labor Day), they had a free dog sushi special! Lol. I made a takeout order for some salmon & ahi sashimi for myself, & a salmon sushi for my doggo, Hina. I can be picky with ahi sashimi since I've been burned too many times with fish that isn't fresh :( but luckily both the salmon & ahi tasted great. And Hina definitely enjoyed her meal too!

Look did you know there's a fresh newbie here and I don't mean just the fish. Hou Fish Market occupies what used to be Wave Tea which I was sadden and had no idea had closed but did you know they also have tea here as well? They do have an impressive list of Milk Tea varieties including several types of fruit teas including my personal favorite Mix Fruit Tea, if that's not your cup of tea they also have Honey Calamansi Lemonade, Passion Fruit, Strawberry and Lemon Sparkling Water and these don't even cover the grab and go drinks...oh they got Smoothies as well!! Well their menu is just mind boggling so I kept it simple with their Spicy Tuna Bowl which consists of white rice (which I think is sushi rice as there's a slight sweetness) topped with sprinkles of Furikake and tuna fish with spicy sauce and drizzle of unagi sauce (way too sweet in my opinion that I couldn't taste much of anything else) which I will pass on the next time. Don't let this "fish market" fool you they also have udon, shrimp tempura, and several other non-fish rice bowls (unagi, sukiyaki beef, and Teri chicken) as well as salad topped with your favorite proteins. Go little as two pieces of Inari sushi to a full platter here you can find something for everyone, well everyone but for keikis. It doesn't stop from poke or poke bowl they do serve them in just about every shape and sizes from nigiri to maki sushi even a fun donut shaped. Well speaking about shapes it's not just for hoomans this dog friendly biz has yummy fun bites for them as well salmon, chicken or tuna rice in an adorable donut shape treat though their site shows bear shape...hmmm! Kaka'ako has grown to be dog friendly as many places has welcomed them and here it's no different, follow them on Instagram @hou_fish_market for the latest of everything including a link to their site where you're able to order online at https://houfish.com Sushiholics roll on in and have a rice day!! Thank you!

UPDATE: September 2023 All the prices went up a buck or two. I get it that their pricing went up, but now its approaching $20 for the larger bowls and I'll probably go elsewhere to get full if I'm really hungry. Pioneer Saloon Kakaako is nearby, and I'll probably go there as their fish plates excluding ahi are still $16
