“Been craving PokiTomik since I saw a post on TikTok and made it my mission to stop by next time I was in Westwood. The stars must’ve aligned since I found parking right in the front of the store! That’s a rarity in Westwood! Upon arrival I noticed the place was surprisingly empty. Not sure why, especially after you read my review

George helped me figure out exactly what to order and he was so incredibly sweet and helpful. Since I was starving, I opted for large bowl that included four scoops. I chose tuna, salmon, and two sweet salmon scoops I loaded my bowl with cucumbers, seaweed salad, Masago, mango, Imitation crab, as well as a few sauces.

Let’s just say I was incredibly happy with what I ate. The fish was very fresh and the bowl was delicious. Will definitely be back for more as I’m curious to try the burritos!“

“Sweetfin Poke in Santa Monica delivered exactly what I was craving—a super fresh, flavorful, and satisfying meal without the heaviness. I stopped in for a late lunch and built my own bowl with spicy tuna, bamboo rice, avocado, pickled shiitake mushrooms, crispy onions, and their creamy togarashi sauce, and every bite was spot-on. The fish tasted incredibly fresh, the toppings were vibrant and varied in texture, and the portions were generous without being overwhelming. The space itself is bright and minimal, and the service was quick but friendly—they helped me navigate the menu and offered great suggestions. I also grabbed one of their sparkling yuzu lemonades which was the perfect balance of tart and refreshing. It’s clear Sweetfin takes pride in quality ingredients and thoughtful combinations, and it’s the kind of place you can go multiple times a week without ever getting bored.“

“Delicious poke, fast service, the cafe has uncomfortable stools, it is impossible to relax and enjoy visiting the cafe. We took a small portion of poke and it was enough to eat. The cafe menu has very tasty ice cream in the form of macarons, but the refrigerator with ice cream is behind the counter and we accidentally saw this ice cream. Maybe it is necessary to move the refrigerator to a more visible place for visitors. I recommend“

“Walking into this place the first thing you will notice is that it is very simple. There are six stills that line two of the walls with a communal table in the center. I am warning you ahead of time that the tables and stools are not tall people friendly.
Moving on, this place is not for people who have no patience. However for those of you who appreciate the time it takes to make great food then you will be right at home.
I got the Tonkotsu with pork belly and opted for the very spicy level. There are layers of flavor in this broth. The noodles have a great chew and the more I dug through this dish I discovered more spice. It wasn’t spicy for me but it was enjoyable.
I also went with their pork belly bun. It had a great flavor and it was incredibly tender. My final choice was the edamame and that too was perfectly cooked and seasoned.
For those of you who appreciate flavor over ambiance this is the place to go.“

“This is one of the pricier poke places but for good reason. Their tuna and salmon is wild. They have lump blue crab and toro and hamachi. And many more. Several kinds of fish eggs. The choices are the best in LA when it comes to variety and quality and that’s not even starting on sauces. Truffle mayo. Furikake rice. So many options and so good.“

“Large plate is pretty filling so come hungry. The crab salad is a great add on if you're lookin for more protein. Sauce option: Ponzu + Spicy Mayo + Sriracha = 👌 btw. this place is Keto Friendly“

“Pick your base, protein and fresh veggies. Fresh, and Delish Yumminess! 😋“

“I like it...that flavors s awesome ..!!!!...“

“Soo tasty! I loved the OG Ahi Tuna. So fresh and the sauce on top was really good. Although I got my food to go, I’d eat there with the beer taps and all!“

“This chain is amazing! Food is always super fresh and serving is good size there are a lot of options especially great for lunch those who want to eat light or be full. If you are vegan or pescatarian this place is great for you too We have options for everybody.“

“The poke bowl was amazing! Yum!! Ramen it was so so. Other than that! I'm going back 😄😄“

“Omg, so good!! So fresh!! Broth was amazing, I wish I had more noodles, next time I’ll add more noodles!! Ramen Ramen Ramen❤️❤️❤️😁“

“Great Food. Price it's right.“

“Sushi was fresh and delicious! I got the incredible roll and it was fresh, full of flavor, and thoughtfully made. Reasonably priced and generous portions- wonderful fish to rice ratio. The service staff were very friendly and accommodating. I’ll definitely be back again, great for take out!“

“it was a nice surprise in our neighborhood. staff friendly .fish looked fresh and great presentation welcome to the neighborhood“

“Best Poke and friendliest staff in AZ!!“

“It was our first time trying Ramen and the cashier was awesome enough to help us choose. We chose the spicy ramen and it was not disappointing! It was just enough spice to make it flavorful. And it was enough to fill the tummies of two ladies and then some. I was kinda bummed that there isn't much of a varieties when it comes to ordering. Only about 4 to 5 options.“

“Food was very good. The ingredients were all fresh and tasty. Service was great!“

“A great spot for poke! The fish is fresh and there were plenty of choices for how I wanted to customize my bowl.

Staff were friendly and service was quick!

The restaurant was clean and tidy with a nice atmosphere, I have already come back a second time and it was just as good! 😊“

“I was chaperoning a weekend high school convention and needed to grab a quick bite for dinner. Found Poke Bar, just a mile away. Perfect! I grab Friend and we set off to get some dinner to go.

We ordered the small bowl ($16.43) with white rice and medium bowl ($18.49) with half rice and half salad. The small bowl came with two scoops of protein while the medium came with three scoops. I got spicy tuna, salmon, and albacore. Appreciate all the various toppings they offered! It was a hefty and satisfying poke bowl. I was hungry and ended up finishing the entire bowl!

Owner was super nice and patient, as Friend and I were also picking up orders for other people and had to verify what they wanted for their toppings. To top it off, owner was a former Key Club member in high school, which was the convention I was volunteering for!

Good amount of seating inside. Not too many parking spots in the plaza, so I can see it being a challenge when the plaza is busy.“

“The best POKE place in town. Try the Mango Bowl......Great!!!!“

“Good portions! Would like more variety of toppings but it’s cool. Thanks poke tiki!“

“Yes so good Poke Bar delicious 😋 see you tomorrow 😜😋“

“I ate at SanSai in Chatsworth today . I had miso soup, salmon plate with brown rice and steamed veggies. The food was excellent. The restaurant was very clean. The owners are friendly and hard working to make sure every customer is happy and satisfied. They have a wide variety of food. They also have Sushi which is very popular. They also do take out orders and large orders for take out for parties and any event. I strongly suggest you try this restaurant. You will not be disappointed!“

“Has the best poke around the area by far! Tried another poke place near there and instantly regretted it so if you’re by the area always pick this place! They offer really good portions and the fish is always good. The only complaint is now they’re offering a coffee and matcha and if you don’t know how to make it just don’t sell it. Got the ‘matcha’ iced latte and was served a glass of milk with green tint it was just sad. Who orders matcha to drink a glass of whole milk?“
