Ali’i Fish Company Torrance

Was in the area and saw this place while driving to another destination. Decided to give this place a try. Did the Spicy, Hawaiian and Yuzu Salmon. The flavors were mostly good. The Spicy was a tad salty. Did I taste miso in it? I did not care for the texture of the salmon. Citrus typically cooks the protein so while the flavor was good I didn't like the texture of the salmon. I would say the quality and texture of the tuna is good for being a previously frozen product. It's interesting how people don't know the difference between fresh and freshly prepared.

Came here on a Sunday night to takeout ~15 minutes before they closed and they had already cleaned everything out and wouldn’t take my order.

Fresh and authentic. The freshest poke we have ever experienced. Not cheap. You are going to pay for all that freshness, but man, you owe it to yourself to try this place at least once in your life. It tastes like fish just pulled out of the ocean and cut on the deck of a boat, and then thrown into an amazing poke recipe right before your eyes. I would drive to Torrance from Long Beach any day of the week just to have this again.Staff is warm and friendly.

Got the Onion Limu Ahi (soy sauce with onion) and Lava (spicier mayo). The poke here is premade meaning you can't customize but the flavor of the sauces are able to marinate into the meat more. The soy sauce poke was a bit salty to eat on it's own but would be good with salad or rice. The Lava was slightly spicy 1or 2 on a scale of 5. Pretty good overall. Might come back for the other flavors.

The seasoning was average, but the rice was dry and hard. It's great that you can mix it up with salad and rice! There was also a generous amount of tuna.
