Got this delivered and it was fantastic. I am not use to having the fish and rice separately but I love it. The spicy tuna was especially good.

This spot is pretty good. The bowls can be a bit expensive, but I love that their portions are quite big. I do only tolerate going to this spot because it is open later than Poke Etc and they have a variety of fish here.

I have come here once where the fish was smelly and I did not come back for a while, so just a warning. Your experience may vary.

I wanted poke. Parking is kinda hard to find initially. It’s better to park near the Ralph’s in that huge parking lot.

Nothing stands out here. But clean enough to return.

Quality of the fish is fresh. So many options to make your poke bowl just like you like it. Perfect.

Usually good food and service. But if the time says your open until 10, you don't close 9: 30.2 star until that changes

It did have a fishy smell when myself and some friends walked through. We still gave it a try tho. We got home to eat. Unfortunately, the poke bowl did not taste fresh at all and there was no flavor to it. We end up tossing our bowls in the trash and had to go back out to go get something else to eat = (

The Poke bowls are always delicious. Although I feel like the sizes of the bowls/containers have gotten smaller from when I first started coming here about a year ago. And depending on who is serving you, you'll get more than others.

I'm reading all the comments about the fish being old and the place being smelly.
I have been coming here since just opened. I will agree it has a fishy smell when you walk in, and it feels stuffy. However, my bowls have ALWAYS been fresh and delicious. I get tuna and spicy tuna. The servers are very kind. Then again, I am really quick with my order, like an assembly line. For as long as I have been going and for the 3 times month I've ordered, I am impressed with their consistency in quality and their service.
I will also acknowledge that there are some items like: avocado or a protein they will run out of occasionally. But who cares! I'd rather them need the fresh ingredients than them overstock and have it there for days!
#6 sauce extra spicy please!

I’ve been to one of these locations closer to home but stopped by since i work kind of close to this location. The poke was ok, but i did notice that the milk tea i ordered was out. The staff gave me thai tea to replace my choice of drink. This kind of made me question the freshness of the food, but I have been really craving some poke for a while. I noticed that the drinks did not taste fresh. They taste have been sitting in those canisters for days. I wouldn’t order from here unless You’re really starving.

Make you own poke is great. Just need to feed the right ingredients to make much better then the first try. Trying is an excellent experience.

I ordered food from this location on Postmates. When it was dropped off the lid was opened and inside my food was a fly! A disgusting fly just walking all over my food and it couldn’t even use its wings. Don’t know how it ended up in my food but I’m hoping this is a rare occurrence. Tried calling the store number but you can’t even leave a message! This is ridiculous

They do good work here. Good portions, tasty fish and wonderful service.

I have been to poke places where they cut the fish into tiny skimpy portions, where the soy sauce I added side was the only resemblance of flavor in the whole dish and the vegetables were old.

These guys take their job seriously and I've never gotten a bowl that wasn't delicious.

I usually get the medium bowl with half brown rice and half spring mix. The spring mix is fresh and the brown rice is cooked well (you'd be surprised how many times I've gotten undercooked or burnt brown rice at other places). The medium comes with 3 proteins. I get the tuna, albacore and cooked shrimp. The albacore is lightly seared, the tuna is thick and the shrimp isn't all rubbery. I get all the toppings (except jalapeno, its too spicy 4 me) and the #2 sweet sauce. I get the crab salad and seaweed salad for my 2 sides. Always add avocado for a dollar. My fave garnishes are fried onion and garlic, furikake (a little salty so be wary) and sesame seed.

Tried the Thai tea and boba today. Boba was a little mushy so probably wouldn't do that again but the foods delicious.

First timer here. Thank goodness my expectations was lower therefore I wasn't totally disappointed. The poke was fresh and was very bland. I'm from Hawaii, so I prefer the traditional poke style. Two stars because the service was friendly.

Been a loyal customer for some time but be very mindful about your online order and check before you leave, for a $32 meal (x2) too many mistakes have been done (and often) where your portions are extremely thin and inconsistent (it's a hit or miss), and missing toppings even if you pay extra. Extremely disappointed. Time to look elsewhere.

Great food with Amazing unsweetened green tea. Tried the spicy tuna. Now that I know that they have spicy mayo, gunna get the original ahi tuna and mix it with the spicy mayo just like how hawaiian markets have it presented.

This place has been there for 2 years and I just came to know of it. Food was good. Very clean place. Good and pleasant service. Recommend it.

One of my favorite places to go for lunch as a somewhat healthy alternative to fast food. It's never busy here, and the poke and miso is delicious!
