Since you guys have no business and the food is bad, you have to complain about the food trucks. Very low move, hope your business closes soon!
Poki Bowl will no longer have my business.

Complaining about a small business neighbor when your own small business is empty every day. You don’t own the building or city block. Focus on why your shop is not busy like the others instead, so many better shops to be replaced with too.

I eat poke bowls at least twice a week so I came in hoping to try a new restaurant, visually my bowl looks like what I’d expect from a poke bowl but as soon as I bit into my bowl the fish had a rancid taste I got the ahi and salmon which are normally my favorites but god it was bad I had to spit it out after taking a bite of the ahi.
Poke bowls are fairly expensive so I’d expect to be able to eat mine without gagging but I just couldn’t stomach my bowl from here. The options were nonexistent and I ordered the large and still it was the same size as my go to places regular. I’m very disappointed, I personally rarely write reviews but if this can serve as a warning I suggest others to take it and find another restaurant.
I wasted 23$ I won’t be able to get back on a bowl that made me sick

The employee spills some of my fish,cucumbers and onions and throws them away , says oops sorry, doesn’t replace. They give tiny scoop of avocado and crab so I ask for more and they charged me for both.
The rice was hard and undercooked.
I used to really love this place but since they jacked up the price of their bowls, inventory turnover seems lower, the fish tastes like it sits out for way too long and does not have a pleasant taste.
I miss how good these bowls used to be.
They put your food in plastic containers that are smaller than the normal eco friendly ones and they are not BPA free. They have fewer options for their meats. Barely any options for add-ons as far as veggies ect. They have NO Topper options of crispy onions, sesame seeds or seaweed ect. They also charge almost $2 more for their bowl then other Poki bowls near this. If you're in the area go to another one, they're really close and much better. Don't pay more for less. The picture is a "large bowl."

Such limited options compared to other locations…very disappointing!
Good service, good food, but it's too noisy. I think the acoustics make the refrigerated machines loud and it's hard to communicate.

I came here to use my $50 never used gift card to this place. It was rejected even with legitimate receipt of purchase because the owners “changed their system” so that it doesn’t support gift cards. Upon hearing about the situation, employee Kevin said he would help, but ended up ditching the store for over 30 minutes while his colleague stayed back with us. His colleague had to call Kevin multiple times just to get ahold of him because he wasn’t in the store anymore - turns out he was hiding away from the situation, and his colleague had to step in to communicate and keep us company. Ultimately, nobody was able to resolve the gift card issue even though it’s $50 unused with proof of purchase (btw, California law states that gift cards NEVER expire). I simply can’t deal with incompetent management and disrespectful service.Not only did I leave without my food, but also with a terrible impression of the management at this place. Plus, the employee who stayed back with us recommended another better & cheaper poke bowl place down the street. There’s wayyy better options in a place like San Jose :)

This place should really get no stars as the service and food are terrible at this facility. It takes a really disappointing experience like this to be awarded with such a negative review.The only reason we chose this place was because we wanted to use a gift card. We ordered our food, tried to pay with a legitimate poki bowl gift card, but Kevin and the other server could not figure out how to use the gift card. So Kevin called his manager but apparently he is vacationing in Mexico and could not be disturbed. He called other owners and they were unhelpful too. After waiting patiently for over 30 minutes, Kevin didn't have the authority to do anything and didn't do anything for us. He hid in the back of the restaurant and was meek. As such, we left our order in disgust and disappointment. His manager, Johnathan Nguyen didn't help in any way either.I do not recommend this restaurant at all. There are much better poki bowl places with better fish, more choices for toppings, lower prices and of course, way better service.
