First Look: Hi-5 Poke and Sushi on International Drive

We were invited to check out a few dishes at Hi-5 Poke and Sushi on International Drive (located in the same plaza as Backstage Billiards, near Premium Outlets). The menu features a list of poke bowls, bao buns, wings, and more.

Here are Our Top 4 Things To Try at Hi-5 Poke and Sushi:

1. Hi-5 Poke “Nacho”

Wonton Chips, Hi-5 Poke Ahi Tuna, Fresh Avocado, Cucumber, Red Onions, Fresh Jalapenos, Spicy Mayo, Sesame Seeds. This was my favorite dish because I am a sucker for chips, raw fish, avocado, and spicy mayo. I would go back and order this over and over.

2. House Made Bao Burgers With Chicken Teriyaki

This was my friend’s favorite dish, it was pleasantly unique and surprisingly good. Traditional Asian sliced bread packed full of chicken teeming with a summer slaw. It’s also made from SCRATCH every morning. We tried our burger with chicken teriyaki but I am already looking forward to coming back and trying it with pork belly next time. The chips were delicious. They take a lotus root, slice it, then fry it.

3. Cilantro Garlic Lime Wings

Asian style wings. Great flavors and crispy. What more do you need? Highly recommended.

4. Build-Your-Own Poke Bowl

The flavor profile of the bowl and consistency of the rice a bit different than what I am used to. I wish the rice had a bit more vinegar in it to make it a bit more firm. I am willing to give it another try.

The owners have a background in design and you can tell by the way that they’ve put together their store. It is a cute, fun, laid-back Hawaiian themed spot that has a lot of potential. Best of luck, guys!
