Ipo Bbq
Lots of places to eat in Poway. Looks like Ipo Bbq is the only independent Hawaiian restaurant.
I tried the beef short ribs. Regular size order came with 3 ribs and 3 scoops of rice. Rice was moist and had a mild flavor. Ribs were tender and nicely marinated. The quality of meat is higher than L & L which I found chewy but I prefer the flavor of Island Style Cafe’s version.
I also tried the lychee slush. Ice had bigger chunks than I prefer. Sweet lychee flavor was kinda like lychee but different from eating fresh lychee.
So far Ipo Bbq has my favorite Hawaiian food in Poway.

I like to take photos of beautiful things like rain falling into puddles. Photos were mostly taken on a Fuji XE-2. Starting 9.9.2016 most photos are taken on a Fuji XT-2. Subsequent photos were taken with an Iphone 13 Pro and an Iphone 15 Pro Max.

It wasn’t bad.

Yum! I love that this is a mom-and-pop place. Lots of mainstream and big-box chains otherwise in that area but some local flavors are appreciated. I’ll have to give them a shot next time I’m around there.

I’m always looking for alternatives to the big chains. Another plus is it’s near the Poway farmers market so I can get some fresh produce before lunch.
