I was there last night 2/7/23 first time . The person filling my bowl did not stop squeezing on the spicy sauces when I said "STOP" , "THATS FINE" 0, "THATS ENOUGH"!. TOO MUCH spicy mayo and sweet and spicy sauce. He just kept squeezing.
I knew at that moment it wouldnt be good. Sure enough I get home $18.00 +2$-tip. And I take one bite and throw it away. I thought about washing it off the fish and throwing away the rice . Gross .cold rice, the tuna ahi was mooshy. No dinner for me.
I'm upset. It's way too expensive. You can't see what you're ordering . 10 people behind the counter. THAT I think is weird and Uncomfortable.

I will not go back but if only to get a refund $20.00 for my bowl of over spiced mooshy tuna, 1gram of seaweed, 1/2 pinch of crab, and with cold rice. Blagh.
I love poke but not in a congested crowded tiny kitchen noisy and 10 employees gawking at you will you consider ordering what you cant even SEE.. there was a woman with a baking sheet of fish using a torch to sear the tuna leaning over a sink.. that was weird. Seard is in a pan not with a crembrule torch..
I'd like my $20.00 back please Today
I love POKÈ on 1st in LB.

I have been going to Poke Pola almost monthly since they opened about 8 years ago. This is the restaurant I return to more than any other. The quality of ingredients and the flavors never cease to amaze. The staff is always friendly and quick. There is no poke in the world than I'd rather have than Poke Pola.

The spice Factor is REAL. Spice be spicing. Judge each chili emoji seriously ?️ because they are not messing around. Good overall though.

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids sized poke bowl.

I love this place BUT I always order online ..went on person today and I saw they don't wear gloves and I saw a guy hand handeling the ginger with his bare hands ..he could have been disposing of it but non the less its unnerving plz make the workers wear gloves for good measure non of them was wearing and they handle food closely

Wonderful food and great staff. I work on the same block and I have to say that this is a wonderful option both for lunch and dinner. The build your own bowl style is super customizable and there is a lot to choose from. Very filling for a good price.The owners are great people. Kind hearted and friendly. Glad to support local business!

I wanted to like this place but I feel like there are way better options around. The girls working there were friendly. A regular bowl with three small scoops of protein costs $20. It was just alright.
