About This Place

Nestled along Katy Freeway in Houston, Pokii Eatery offers an inviting gateway to the vibrant flavors of Hawaii right in the heart of Texas. As a premier Hawaiian restaurant, poke bar, seafood, and sushi destination, this spot seamlessly blends fresh, ocean-inspired ingredients with a welcoming atmosphere that invites both casual lunch-goers and devoted food enthusiasts.

The culinary experience here is anchored by their impressive lineup of signature poke bowls — each a colorful, flavor-packed tribute to authentic Hawaiian cuisine. The Big Kahuna bowl stands out as a must-try, delivering silky, fresh Ahi Tuna bathed in Pokii Eatery's Signature Traditional Shoyu sauce, a taste that instantly transports you to sun-soaked shores. For those who crave a fiery kick, the Texas Dynamite bowl amps up the heat with crispy shrimp tempura and a distinctive Habanero Heat aioli, a boldly seasoned creation that perfectly balances spice and texture. The sweet-savory notes in the Miso Surf bowl provide a delightful counterpoint, proving that versatility is key to Pokii Eatery’s menu.

If you’re drawn to classic Hawaiian comfort food, the eatery’s Hawaiian BBQ offerings don’t disappoint. The Loco Moco marries tender grass-fed hamburger steak and free-range eggs over steamed rice, smothered in homemade Hawaiian gravy — a soulful bowl of pure comfort. For something lighter but no less satisfying, the Chicken Katsu features a perfectly panko-crusted chicken cutlet, crisp cabbage, and creamy Hawaiian Mac Salad, all complemented by your choice of mild or spicy curry sauce, or the house gravy. These dishes echo the deep culinary roots and warmth that define Hawaiian cooking.

Beyond the food, Pokii Eatery’s atmosphere is relaxed yet polished, making it an ideal spot for a quick lunch or a casual dinner. Customers consistently highlight the friendly, knowledgeable staff who not only assist in navigating the diverse menu but elevate the dining experience with genuine hospitality. As one guest shared, “Tommy made everything so easy… my bowl was bomb!!” The clean and organized interior, combined with efficient service, lets the focus remain where it belongs — on the vibrant, fresh ingredients and bold flavors.

Refreshing beverage options, including CocaCola classics, Diet Coke, and unique offerings like Strawberry & Cream Dr. Pepper, complement the meal perfectly, providing crisp, effervescent balance to the rich and spicy flavors of the bowls.

Pokii Eatery genuinely excels at transforming simple, fresh ingredients from the ocean into memorable meals packed with authentic taste and care. Whether you’re a poke aficionado or new to Hawaiian cuisine, this eatery invites you to dive into a culinary journey that feels both adventurous and comforting — a true feast for your senses and your soul.

    I’ve meaning to try this place for the longest but something always came up and boy I was missing out. Customer service and staff are super friendly and ready to answer any questions about the menu. They have such a variety of fresh foods for you to choose from. Sauces are made in house. We had the chance of trying the burrito style poki (shrimp tempura & spicy tuna) and the Texas Dynamite bowl(spicy ). Portions were pretty big compared to other poki places I visited. We tried Hawaiian Sun made of guava and passion fruit. Interesting juice, a little sweet but not too much. We also tried the Big Wave golden ale, pretty good light beer. This stablisment gets: 10/10 Taste, 10/10 presentation, $$/$$$ price, 10/10 atmosphere, 10/10 service, 10/10 overall experience ‼‼‼

    Fresh, delicious, healthy option! Pokii eatery has a relaxed ambiance. There are great combo options for the poke bowls. Great option for a quick lunch. The location is clean and organized. Staff is friendly and I’ll definitely be coming back. I highly recommend especially if you are a sushi or sashimi lover!

    The ingredients are super fresh and flavorful, and I absolutely enjoyed my poke bowl. Plus, the website for online ordering is simple to use! I had spicy tuna and spicy crab - both were what I would call "mild" spicy. They made my tongue tingle but I'm someone with a low tolerance for heat and I would consider the amount of heat in my bowl to be exactly what I like. If you like it hotter, you should probably order the spicy condiments in addition. If you're looking for a recommendation, get the ponzu sauce and the furikake!

    Nut allergy friendly: There's even an option on their app! Portions of fish were very generous, but it felt like it was not as fresh as other poke that I've had. Order was followed very well for a custom bowl and their special bowls looked very nice as well. Vegetables tasted good and the pickled vegetables were not too intense.

    Small Poke spot that offers seating inside and outside. Not a very comfortable environment to eat in, I would suggest ordering takeout. The ingredients were fresh and tasty. There was a good selection to choose from. Prices are very reasonable. Service was excellent. Highly recommend.
