Grindz - Aloha Poke

Step into Grindz – Aloha Infused Poke, a bright, family‑owned poke bar tucked into the heart of Monrovia’s historic Foothill Boulevard district. Open daily from 11 am, the shop greets guests with reggae rhythms, palm‑tree murals and a scent of fresh sea breeze. The menu lets you build your own Hawaiian bowl: choose from a Small Bowl (one scoop), Medium Bowl (three scoops) or Large Bowl (five scoops) and layer premium ahi tuna, salmon or tofu with crisp greens, mango, avocado, edamame and pickled ginger. Signature sauces include Sesame, Thai, Traditional and Spicy Mayo, each handcrafted in‑house. Vegan diners can enjoy tofu‑based bowls and the same vibrant toppings. The interior combines reclaimed wood tables, bright teal accents and a communal “Aloha Wall” where guests leave positive notes. Dine‑in or order online for quick pickup; the website rewards program offers free bowls after ten orders. Grindz also provides catering for office lunches and weekend picnics, delivering fresh poke to the Highlands, Arcadia and Kincaid neighborhoods. Prices range from $9 for a single‑scoop bowl to $18 for a fully loaded large bowl, making it an affordable taste of paradise. Friendly staff are happy to recommend the “Aloha Classic” – a Medium Bowl with sesame sauce, pineapple, and a drizzle of honey‑lime. Whether you’re a poke aficionado or a first‑time explorer, Grindz promises a heart‑centered, flavor‑rich experience that captures the spirit of Hawaii right in Monrovia.
