tako poki!?

Haven't been in Hawaii for years and I miss the food the most. So I'm wondering where is a good place to get some good tako poki?

"Poki Stop" in Waipahu...The owner of Poki stop was a former chef for Sam Choys restaurant. There poki is pricy, but the freshness and taste makes up for it "Voted #1 Best of the Best"

taniokas is closer to pearl city in waipahu & poke stop is closer to ewa beach in waipahu. both at opposite sides of the spectrum & poke stop is the best! used to work there back in high school!

Tanioka's is right across the Jack in the Box in Waipahu and its right beside the 711. You cant miss it it has a nice big Ahi sign.

+1 for poke stop. I also think En Fuegos is pretty good but Star in Ewa Beach is hit or miss.

Wouldn't think tako is that fattening considering the texture and the fact that's it's boiled.

Of course, I could be wrong since squid is so calorie and cholesterol-laden haha.
