North Shore Poke Co. (we close early when we run out of fresh fish)

  4.5 – 357 reviews   • Hawaiian restaurant

Social Profile:

North Shore Poke Company is a family-run business entirely dedicated to creating mind-blowing amazing Hawaiian poke that opened in March 2012 in Huntington Beach, CA. Just one block shy of Main Street. North Shore Poke Co is Orange County’s first restaurant dedicated to just fresh Hawaiian style poke. It was while serving in the Coast Guard Chef Shawn Gole caught the Poke bug and wondered why even Hawaiian restaurants on the mainland were overlooking this tasty fish offering. While on Oahu, Shawn on his days off would venture up to the North Shore to surf, hang with friends, or grab some local grinds in Haleiwa. The North Shore was his happy place and created North Shore Poke Co to fill that love with no one better than his lady Morgan

Skip the lines on Main St!
This poke spot is fire
They practice Aloha ✨
The food is authentic poké style—think Maui Foodland, but in Huntington Beach downtown! I get the tuna/salmon combo with all my favorite add-ons.
The fish is FRESH—so check the hours because once they sell out, it’s gone for the day!
Pro tip: Ask for furikake on top of the rice! It gives it an added layer of depth, complexity, and umami flavor.
Parking can be tight—there’s metered parking in front. Definitely throw a few bucks in and don’t risk it! If you do a loop around the block, there are a few green 24-minute parking spots that they don’t monitor the exact time on. There’s also a parking structure one block up with plenty of spaces.
Service is fast and attentive, often made by the owner himself! Thank you, Sean!!
Good vibes, good views, good food, good people!

Excellent service, friendly, helpful, quick. You build your own from the menu (which is a video display with tape used to show changes. Why they didn’t update the display???) I must have done it wrong. I had a 2-fish poke bowl with brown rice and teriyaki. The flavor was blah. Not bad, just blah. I don’t know how to make a poke bowl so this format didn’t work for me. I’ll ask for more help next time.

FOOD SAFETY ISSUE: DO NOT EAT HERE

There are a couple problems with this place that are serious food safety issues.

1) There was a BONE in my Poke (Picture below). Anyone who eats sashimi or Poke knows this is a serious food safety issue and can choke or kill someone. I showed the bone to the manager and he said “We do the best we can but sometimes bones remain”. Unacceptable!

2) All the Salmon has skin and fat left on its edges that gives it a bitter taste. I have eaten Poke in a hundred places and never seen this. Manager didn’t take this complaint seriously either!

3) They say their fish is “Fresh” but they don’t follow standards to make it sashimi grade. Anyone knows that you have to keep fish at certain temperatures for certain times to meet sashimi grade criteria!!

Many more complaints as well but this was the most important issues. I am not going to eat here again for sure.

This place is the best poke in Huntington Beach! Run by a veteran surfer and his wife, they are some of the kindest souls who take the time to get to know you. Morgan has had my order memorized for years The poke is fresh and there’s countless toppings and sauces to choose from to make the tastiest concoction you can imagine. Try it with coconut Waimea sauce with a teriyaki drizzle! This is my weekly spot

Over the years prices have JACKED up but I think it’s still a killer deal to get their half pound of poke + a side of salad or rice OR take it home and have an amazingly delicious poke meal with your own homemade sides. The staff are super friendly and I don’t mind the price when I’m in a poke mood!

Update: BEST POKE IN CALI

Best poke bowl I’ve ever had, This place is absolutely amazing! I asked for the chef to surprise me, and I chose ahi and salmon for my fish. Morgan and Sean do an outstanding job of making you feel warm and welcome, even when they’re super busy and shorthanded. I should have come in a long time ago. They have earned a lifetime customer right here. Highly recommended.
