text: I love Poke Express and they told me I should try 808 Hawaii Mixed plate.  I had gone there once a year ago and had a bad experience. I entered and asked if I could order just meat. (I had a party to go to and had plenty of time, I was willing to wait.) Anyways, the lady working literally started yelling at me that I need to order stuff like that ahead of time. (A simple, no would have done.) So I walked out and vowed never to return.  But, since I enjoy the atmosphere and food at Poke express I decided to give 808 another chance.\n\nFood: Very average plate lunch with below average portions.  I ordered the Kalbi and garlic chicken.  Personally I did not enjoy how they served the Kalib. It was sliced up for me. I like Kalbi in part because I like ripping the meat of the bones. Also, they asked how I wanted it cooked and I replied rare (I was impressed this was even an option.)  It came out very well done, so well done that it ruined a nice cut of meat. The flavor was ok, but nothing special.  The garlic chicken was average, nothing special at all.  The mac salad was above average. The rice was very disappointing, it was very dry; nothing like buck shot rice to ruin a plate lunch!\n\nService:  The short girl at the counter has to go. She must have been having a bad day. She seemed very irritated when I asked the price of the Kalbi and acted upset she had to look up the days price.   \n\nI went with my cousin and her friend both who are white, I am hapa.  Anyways they ordered before me and they girl at the counter didn't know they were with me.  So when we say down, they brought both of them their plates.  I have never seen such small portions!!!  Serious a Mini plate and every other local food place I have been is bigger than what these girl got!  They ordered Kalua pig and teri beef. Literally looke like a half scoop of rice, a half scoop of mac salad and maybe a have cup of the meats they ordered.   When I got my plate 15 minutes later, I had 2 big scoops of rice and a huge scoop of mac salad. My meats were very small portions. I don't know why my plate was so much bigger than theirs. I hope it wasn't because I looked hapa and they don't.\n\nOverall: The food was below average, the portions were very skimpy, and the service was anything but the spirit of Aloha. They need to take lessons from the cousins at Poke express on service and portions.  If I want local food, first choice cook it myself. If I am too lazy, I would take any other place I have been over this place.
