🌺No one in Orange County does Hawaiian food better than Matiki Island barbecue. Tell me I’m wrong?? Let’s fight about!

Holy fish balls! in Redondo Beach was the freshest poke I have even had. And their portion sizes are ginormous. They offer an authentic taste of Hawaiian poke, emphasizing freshness and simplicity.

Their menu features six varieties of pre-marinated tuna, including “original,” spicy, Cali Roll, wasabi, shoyu, and a tofu option for non-seafood eaters.

Each poke is served either plain or over rice with a side dish, allowing the quality of the fish to shine.

Be aware that tuna is the only fish that they serve. There’s no shrimp. There is no salmon, there’s no octopus or any other fish. The only other option is tofu.

03/25/2025

The added 15 new items to their menu. One of the new items are chicken Shawarma pitas. It’s a little like a Caesar salad with chicken Shawarma and a pita. Pretty good for a 10 PM snack.

also, the cheesecake factory in Redondo Beach is on the water. And it’s so beautiful the workers really hustle at this location.
