Where do I even begin? I absolutely love this place. I have visited countless times and it never disappoints. If you're a poke fan and haven't tried Pokehana yet, you're missing out. It's a must-visit whenever my sisters are in town, and it's definitely one of my top picks for poke in Central Florida.
For my custom poke bowl, I always go for white rice as the base, double salmon (sometimes I get salmon/tuna), with Maui sauce, seaweed salad (I forgot the mango this time), pineapple, pickled cucumbers, edamame, masago, and green onions. The quality of their fish is outstanding, especially in comparison to many places in Central Florida. They offer an excellent selection of toppings, and while online orders are limited to a maximum of six toppings, in-store you can go wild with as many as you want. There are a couple toppings with an upcharge, avocado and surumi salad.
Their Hula Chicken plate is also unbeatable. When my boyfriend and I visit, we usually order two custom bowls and a Hula Chicken plate to share because it's just that good. The Hula Chicken plate features white rice (you can choose a different base if you prefer), grilled Hula Chicken topped with spicy mayo and eel sauce (I think), and mac salad (or you can substitute it with two toppings of your choice).
Don't miss out on their Spicy Tuna Ono Nachos--so delicious! Crispy fried wontons are topped with spicy tuna, drizzled with wasabi crema and spicy mayo, and garnished with jalapeño slices, shredded nori, and green onions.
For dessert, we usually get their haupia pie and butter mochi. Both are fantastic, but if you have to pick one, go for the haupia pie.
Also, they have pineapple cream soda at their soda fountain, which you won't find anywhere else around here (from what I have seen).
Everything from their poke bowls and hot plates to the nachos, tacos (with crispy rice paper and your choice of filling), spam musubis, and acai bowls (which I haven't tried but I bet are great) is delicious.
The service is always fantastic--friendly and welcoming. The interior is vibrant and colorful with a Hawaiian surfer vibe.
These photos are from my latest visit. We took our food to go, so the spicy nachos got a bit messy on the drive home. I'll make sure to snap better pics next time!
