We were craving poke and this place was great! The service was fast and friendly. They explained how to create our bowl. We both went with the 3 protein choice. There were so many choices to choose from! And the portions were so big I wasn't sure we could finish our food, but we didn't let all that good food go to waste- we ate it all and wiped our plates clean! We will definitely go back to try different versions of combinations and their sauces soon.

I eat here all the time and generally am pretty happy with it, but the service that I received tonight was absolutely terrible. Ordered 2 bowls from Uber eats and they both barely had any meat, and had no sauce at all. I have ordered both in person and via Uber eats literally dozens of times and I am acutely aware of how this meal is "normally" made. I mean I literally order the exact same thing every time. They totally skimped on everything and then didn't even put the sauces I ordered on it at all, which made it taste like crap. I don't mean like a small amount of sauce, it was literally zero. Basically just a half full bowl of dry rice with some veggies on top and a hint of meat. Okay, so they screwed up the food, it happens. What was unacceptable and why I'm bothering to leave a bad review is that as soon as we got the food, we immediately realized it wasn't made correctly, so we called and explained the situation (before even eating it) and asked if we could bring the food back to have it remade or refunded. They told us it wasn't their problem and we have to take it up with Uber. As if Uber is the one who screwed up. The guy said all of the sauce must have absorbed into the rice, riiiiiiight. What garbage customer service. All he had to do was be like sure no problem come on in and we can remake it or whatever. Instead he was a jerk and told us to take it up with Uber. Grabbed a pizza instead because the bowls were not what we ordered. I guess I should consider myself lucky that the pizza place didn't forget the sauce and only put cheese on half the pizza.. cuz that's basically what happened with the poki bowls.

Fresh and flavorful. They have all the basics you need to make a great bowl! As a sweet bonus they now have a boba bar!

I love this place, it's the place I eat weekly and the rice is always hot and the toppings are always great.
However, recently they changed from the bowl to the white styrofoam containers for to go and I am not a fan of. It's very unstable when putting it on a seat, since it slides around and risk spilling. The sauce and the seaweed salad clings to the lid and when I open the box the sauce flicks out, which dirties the table. The bowl that they used to have is neater, since you can put the lid under it, but for the styrofoam container, it takes up space and you have to work around it.
It's a 4/5 for me, the food was fantastic, the staff are friendly and efficient, but the container brings down a star for me. Hope the bowl comes back one day.

I ate here recently and had a good experience. The food was fresh and delicious. I thought the portions were very generous for the money. We'll definitely be back.

Satisfied with our bowl and the generous amounts of fish and toppings we received. Our servers were friendly, which is often not the case with poki poki employees so this might be a spot we'll head to more often!

The food here is always fresh and delicious. The serving sizes are a bit on the large size but that’s fine by me. Poki Poki never disappoints!

Tables are dirty and sticky, the owner should replace them or sand them and rebarnish...this is a turn off point for me.
