Find Your Aloha

In surfing, a point break is a surf break where the shoreline extends out to sea. In landlocked Plantation, Point Break is a new restaurant that “highlights the best of Pan-Asian cuisine from surf beaches around the world,” according to Memphis Garrett, Garrett Hospitality Group founder.

“We want to give our guests an eclectic mix of dishes with the freshest fish and ingredients, all with an affordable price point and casual atmosphere,” says Garrett, whose original concept, Poke House, opened in Fort Lauderdale in 2016.

The restaurant group recently opened the fast-casual eatery that features fresh fish daily. Menu items include Hawaiian snacks such as Spam Musubi with Seared Spam, Sushi Rice and Nori and Kings Hawaiian Sliders. The specialty ramen and rice dishes run the gamut from Seafood Curry Ramen to Hawaiian Fried Rice with Spam, Grilled Pineapple, Furikake and Egg.

If you’re a sushi lover, there are plenty of signature rolls including: the Kohola Roll — seared salmon, avocado, cucumber and lava sauce; Dragon Roll — coconut shrimp, cucumber, avocado and bang bang sauce; and Hawaiian Roll – tuna, pineapple, seared Spam and nori.

Poke bowls can be customized or you can enjoy those on the menu such as Venice Beach California – salmon, sesame soy blend, white rice, salsa verde, cucumber, seaweed salad, cherry tomato and crispy onions; and Jumunjin Beach Korea – forbidden black rice topped with tuna, house kimchi salad, sesame seeds, house kimchi sauce, rice pearls and toasted cashews.

Don’t leave without trying the Hawaiian Malasadas and Pocky Biscuit Sticks.
