I've heard the rave about this place for awhile, and now recently being pregnant, I couldn't go with out diving in as I drive pass this place on a regular basis! We ordered the short ribs, perfect balance of salty goodness, the pulled pork sanwich, succulent, sweet and great sized, and the yakisoba bowl with chicken as the noodles were cooked perfectly! There is no question we will be returning much sooner then later! Did I mention the prices are unbelievably fair??? My only wish was they had a dish with pineapple or perhaps tropical smoothie options!
The Best There is!. Wild Pineapple has great chicken teriyaki. It is not gooey like their competition.There is no heavy-handed sauce. A small cup of sauce comes with it. The taste from the marinade is subtle, and the pieces of chicken are crispy but not burnt. It comes with rice, I don't go for heavy salads so I am waiting for a nice Asian cabbage slaw to be included. But I think the place is the best around. (I've tried Hawaiian places in Portland, also.)
I found their prices very reasonable and the Kalua Bowl filled me up. I'm a rice lover so I appreciate the difference between high quality and low quality rice. The rice in the Kalua Bowl was great - dense but fluffy. The pork was tender, sweet, and savory, not a ton of salt (which I appreciated). I recommend this place. I will be going back to try the Poke!
