Alicia's Market

Kalihi, Honolulu

🏆 Local Market Legend

9.6/ 10

Good to go

Alicia's Market is one of Oʻahu's true local institutions.

Opened in 1949 by Alicia and Raymond Kam, what began as a small neighborhood grocery

evolved into one of Honolulu's most beloved destinations for poke, crispy roast pork, char siu,

roast beef, and classic local comfort food. Today it remains family-operated and is widely

considered one of the island's essential food stops. Alicia's Market

Unlike a traditional restaurant, Alicia's is a market-style takeout counter where locals line up

for freshly made poke and roasted meats before heading to work, the beach, or home for lunch.

a poke shop or neighborhood market, it's a living piece of Honolulu history

and classic comfort food. If you want to eat like a local rather than a tourist,
