Delicious poke bowls a block off the beach. Is it worth the walk? Yeah I think so 😃! We got the Tofu with sushi rice and a combination spicy bowls. Delicious. And they have a nice quiet seating area outside just behind the shop.
On our last day here I finally had a chance to try Maguro Spot. We ordered a couple of medium All Hawaiian Bowls and a custom bowl my daughter made. The fish was fresh. The All Hawaiian option compared to shoyu or spicy mayo sauces showcases the fish more and you can taste the freshness. Definitely worth going here for Poke!
The line at this place was long when we last passed by. The poke is nice flavored and I had the No 3 with ahi and salmon combo on a bed of sushi rice. Also ordered spicy garlic shrimp dipped in volcano sauce and oh my Lord, It hit the spot. Do order it with a side of white or sushi rice to balance the heat. Would recommend this place. They have various size bowls available which is super cool. You don't have to feel stuffed to feel full.
A bit pricier compared to other places where you can get poke bowls. But I highly recommend giving this a try as tuna is very fresh. It is certainly the best poke I've had out of other places in Oahu. I recommend going lighter on sauces (I went with wasabi shoyu and house) so they don't overpower tuna flavour. Try to avoid mayo based unless you can't eat raw tuna without strong sauces.
Nice and easy way to get your Poke craving fixed! Order and pay at the counter then wait to be called. There is an eat-in area right next to the shop. Just order one of their specials if you are too overwhelmed to decide (like me). We ordered the A) Signature bowl and C) Chili Bomb. I preferred the signature more. The chili bomb was really spicy but good though.
We came across this shop randomly and were curious of the long line all the time at this tiny poke shop. Turned out this was the BESTTT Poke Bowls we had on the island! The price starts from $7 for Small and the amount of meats was so generous! We got $18.50 Large Signature Bowl & $12 Medium Boiled Shrimp Bowl (+ $0.75 green onions + $1.50 Seaweed Salad). The Rainbow Sauce Mix (Spicy Mayo + Teriyaki) was soooo good.
The service was fast and the food was very fresh. It was a very casual shop with some small tables on the side so you get to eat in open air watching traffic coming back and forth — definitely an interesting experience!
Highly recommended this place!
First dinner spot we ate at since we landed! Absolutely loved the food and service. Very fresh fish and great vegetarian options. Food arrived very promptly. Fabulous!
Maguro is conveniently located two blocks off Waikiki and offers delicious poke bowls at a reasonable price! They have outdoor seating available or you can easily walk back to the beach to enjoy. I made two trips here and tried the rainbow and signature bowls. The rainbow was my favorite! Highly recommend as a causal spot to grab lunch or dinner.
So delicious! I took for me a bowl with vinegar rice, all the available fish (shrimps, tuna and salmon, without any additional fees), avocado, macadamia, cucumber, spicy mayo and creamy sesame. I paid 16$. For my boyfriend that was scary to it raw fish I took teriyaki cooked salmon bowl with rice for 5$ (it is a small portion). It was for both of us our first bowl and waouuuuuh so good. I highly recommended. Thanks from France and Turkey.
My first poke bowl in honolulu. There was a line up and it oepned at 10am so we tried it!
Comparing the qty/price with what i had in Maui, so giving them a 4 star. Other than that, the food was pretty good!
