Best poke on the island! This is one of those if you know, you know places. The food here is really good! In addition to the best poke, they have delicious Filipino food.When it comes to poke, my favorite is the Kaarie. It is a masterful blend of ahi, cucumbers, imitation crab meat, and avocado, with the typical spicy sauce. When ordering a poke bowl, I usually get the two choice option. For my second poke, I either get the Sweet Areya Oyster Poke (Oyster Sauce) or the Shoyu. The Oyster Sauce one is similar to the shoyu, but a little bit saltier.When it comes to the cooked food, my favorites are the chicken adobo and two of the noodles (chow fun and pancit). The adobo is very tasty, however, it does have bones (my kryptonite). The chow fun is tasty and not as oily as traditional Chinese style chow fun and the pancit is just as you would expect it--traditional and delicious! Oh, and I cannot forget to mention the cascaron. So delicious! If you are not familiar, cascaron is a Filipino donut made of deep-fried ground glutinous rice, grated coconut, and sugar (thanks google for the formal definition). They are round and about the size of golf balls. They come with 4 on a stick, so you can share with a companion if you are feeling generous. Great dessert after a poke bowl! The aunties that work here are extremely nice. The store is tucked away in the small strip mall behind the Waialua Public Library. If you are out on the North Shore, this place is certainly worth a visit if you want to treat yourself to some seriously tasty poke and Filipino food.

Small little store, friendly family style. Bought 3 plates and each plate comes with a drink of your choice at a reasonable price. The poke was very fresh and spicy the kind i like. Ribs and chicken was a bbq style with smoked flavor. Will be back on my next drive to waialua.

The Deluxe chicken play on Thursdays, Wednesdays. Or for that matter, any day of the week is over the top and they have the best pokey. On a wahoo used to be super at had the most best pokey. But not anymore, it's the Wailua general store. Don't visit the North Shore without stopping at the Wailua general store.Local favorite

Always delicious Fililpino food and fresh poke. Very friendly service. Reasonably priced food. I will be back again next time I'm in the area.I ordered the hot food combo (pinakbet and pancit) this time. They were both very delicious. It's a lot of food, so I was able to have it for two meals.

This is my favorite poke place on the North Shore. For the price, you won't find a better deal in terms of quality and flavor. I got 2 types of tuna for only $11! The ladies were so nice in the store. Wish I could come everyday! The tuna is so fresh!This is a grab and go store so there are no tables, but you could easily drive to the beach and enjoy your food!

Absolute jewel of a find for us tourists. We saw them barbecuing in the parking lot and couldn’t resist trying the bbq chicken and pork stick. They were both incredible! We swung into this little strip mall to do laundry (fair warning most machines are broken) but now are stocking up on meat for our campground tonight :). Great service too. Highly recommend!

If you are on the north shore you will miss out if you don’t stop at the Waialua General Store. The food is so good and Rudy and family are so friendly!

I really hate giving bad review.....but it was a huge disappointment despite the raving reviews! That was the only reason I came here on the first place.I ordered half a pound of poke here. The fish did not tasted fresh when I first bite into it and low and behold....I had a really bad case of food poisoning that evening. Cold sweats, stomach pain, you name it, I have it.
