Alicia’s Market is a great local restaurant in Honolulu, Hawaii. They serve all the good stuff. Get more details here: http://migrationology.com/2012/08/hawaii-food-alicias-market-honolulu/
For years now one of my absolute favorite restaurants to eat at in Honolulu is Alicia’s Market. I first came here a few years ago with my cousin, and we immediately loved the food selection they had. For anyone who loves properly local Hawaiian food and just Hawaii comfort food, Alicia’s Market is about as good as it can get. The restaurant is actually more of a convenience store, so it hardly looks like a restaurant from the outside. But once you park and go inside, you first walk through the aisles of convenience goods, which includes things like cans of SPAM and a selection of beverages, and then you’ll see the glorious cabinets of poke (raw fish), and to the left you’ll see the beautiful roast ducks and roast pork, and char siu, and all things meet. The menu is actually quite expensive, and over the years I’ve been able to sample cost quite a few of their dishes. But still I haven’t tasted everything, though I’m pretty sure everything is pretty good.
If you’re feeling in the mood to eat Hawaiian food, they have a delicious Hawaiian plate that includes poke, kalua pig, laulau, poi, among other things. They’ve also got the full range of Hawaiian plate lunches, a good selection of different poke (raw fish Hawaiian style), and finally that beautiful cabinet of roasted meat – everything I’ve had so far at Alicia’s Market is fantastic. On my latest visit to Alicia’s Market, I decided to order a combination plate, where I could choose the meet I wanted plus a few dishes to go with it. I decided to go for the roast pork, which I had never had there before, but which I had been eyeing all along. I also got some of their sweet onion poke, and a little side of kimchi, all paired with a few scoops of rice.
Alicia’s Market is only a takeaway restaurant, so they have no seating. You can either eat right then in your car, or you can drive somewhere to eat of course. I decided to head back into Honolulu, back to Ala Moana beach park, and find a nice place to sit there and eat. Unfortunately, while I was sitting by the beach, the flies started to attack my food and I, so I decided to just eat in the front seat of the car.
The plate lunch was incredible, the cubes of roast pork were nothing short of remarkable. There were incredibly fatty, but the crispy skin was insane. It was one of the crispiest pieces of pork I’ve had in a very long time. You definitely should not eat roast pork very often as it’s extremely fatty, but wow, occasionally it can be incredible. The sweet onion poke was pretty good, not quite as good as it had been the time before when I went. It was still good but I wished I had gotten the limu poke – has some seaweed in it – and that looked better the day I went. The kimchi added a nice final touch to the entire plate. Anyway, the food at Alicia’s Market in Honolulu, Hawaii, is awesome, and it’s a great place to pick up a hearty Hawaiian style meal before you go to the beach.

Damn, I miss home. Been living on the mainland for too long.
I’m not trying to be biased but no one tops Hawaii cuisine! I currently live on the East Coast and they treat poke, sashimi , sushi like it’s some luxury food. Most are overpriced and the rice tastes old and the fish is okay. But, it’s different in Hawaii. I can go to pretty much any market and it’s fresh and always ono, reasonably priced, and generous with the portions. My mouth is in bliss! I’m glad it’s a staple in Hawaii. The mainland can’t beat the quality of the fish here. But, that’s my opinion
If there's something better than crispy pork, I don't know what it is.
Merci beaucoup!
The combination i never knew i wanted
Think Das the fastest I seen you eat! Gotah love Hawaiian food! Aloha brahdah

Jizz face with the crispy pork 🥴
Wow, want so much meat.. Enjoy your meal..
We ate here a few yrs ago. It was AMAZING! The problem is you can only eat so much at once. So… yes multiple visits is the best advice! We went to a park and ate it!
Yes this place is da bomb
That opener… makes you sound like an alien visiting this planet for the first time… lol
love watching your new vlogs but i come back to these olds ones. bloopers was great wish you still add bloopers to your newer vlogs 😂 food always delicious
Ying, she is an amazing woman. I think Ying was quite annoyed with that beeping sound but still the way she told Mark to take out the key…was very soft.
Yes!! The crunch of that crispy pork skin came through on the microphone soo clear, makes me want crispy roast pork soon.
I prefer my tuna cook!!!
Overreaction just like his over describing food the food looks good but he makes it hard to finish watching the video..
TANIOKAS WAIPAHU

arson fire yesterday at Alicia's Market – out of commission…
Mark, I like your videos. But with all due respect, I totally disagree with you on your evaluation of Alicia's. Please see my comment on yelp. Their service is totally disgusting.
This guy keeps chewing with his mouth open and making orgasm sounds I’m gonna slap his face!!!
"Take out the key." hahaha
everything is his favorite food in the entire world.
You should be fined for provoking your viewers into heavy jealousy with your eating presentation. Great job!
Your reaction face was cute for awhile but now I'm kind of weirded out by it lol. Do you though good job.
Mark, you look like you live here in Honolulu. You ordered one of my favorite plates, yeah, delicious.
You should go to Helena's
Why do I torture myself watching these?! #D.R.O.O.L
That first bite of pork was orgasmic.
