    I love Ishihara Market so much that I drove out to them a few times during my 5 day stay at the island. You can tell I was obsessed with them when I was willing to drive 90 minutes one-way to get some of their poke. Summarizing their Poke in 2 words: Cheap and Good I love the fact that this is a local supermarket and they keep their prices reasonable. There is a large selection of poke available and I am delighted with some selections that I can't normally get elsewhere. Besides my normal Ahi Poke, I loved their marinated raw crab and Wasabi Tako. The staff was very patient as I tried to order a 1/4lb of everything available to sample. Definitely come check out this spot if you are in this part of island.

    Love this spot! Not only can you grab groceries, but they have great poke you can purchase. The last time we went, the deli had to close early due to staffing issues, but the staff was super helpful in directing us to another place to grab some lunch.

    I recently tried the poke bowls at Ishihara Market and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. The ahi tuna and kimchi shrimp bowls were both flavorful and well-crafted. The market also offers a good selection of food, including a variety of poke options. Not normally what you expect as a tourist - for your poke yumminess. We chose to eat at a picnic table across the street, which worked well for a quick lunch. Overall, Ishihara Market is a great option for those in the mood for some delicious poke.
