Poke Restaurants near San Mateo, CA

“The staff are very generous with their portions. Even when buying a small bowl, they get as much salmon as they can with each scoop they add to your bowl. Ultimately the quantity you get from a $18-$22 bowl is massive, especially for a poke place.

Not to mention the house salmon is delicious, and their sauce game is on point. Always get at least 3 sauces!“

“A pre-flight tradition with veggies (and fish!)

My friend loves this place, and over time, it’s become a little tradition: a quick dinner here before I send her off to SFO. I’m not exactly what you’d call a vegetarian (far from it!), but hey—this is a poke spot, and fish definitely isn’t a vegetable. Still, I always follow my friend’s lead and pick kale as the base. By the end of the bowl, I feel like I’ve eaten a year’s worth of greens… in a good way. 😄

This time, I also tried their signature (I think?) taro chips—and I liked them! Crispy, slightly sweet, and a nice change from the usual sides.

Simple, fresh, fast, and now a sentimental favorite. Looking forward to our next “see-you-later” dinner here.“

“Healthy, tasty, fresh poke with kind and respectful servers. 5 out of 5 recommend! I like this place.“

“Really good food and very fresh. If you get a poke bowl as long as there's no line the service is fast. You have to place your order through a piece of paper marking everything you want even if it's only one item. The prices are a little costly but that just seems to be businesses across California nowadays.“

“Defintely Poke'd Out after the lunch. Ordering method is broken down nicely and listed down well in the menu. It goes like Base + Poke + Mix-in + Sauce + Add-ons. I have chosen the medium sized bowl where I got 4 scoops of poke instead of mentioned 3, all the sizes get additional scoop as complementary. Chose couple of miso shrimp and spicy crab(it was spicy indeed) scoops. Tofu medley was not that great, tough to satisfy vegetarians or vegans. I felt the quantity was overwhelming for one person, small would be more than enough. Priced around $20 for the medium, it's on the expensive side, but the diverse selections make it recommendable. Note that it’s only a to-go restaurant.“

“Amazing poke’ ! Incredible service! Awesome owners! Cool Asian sparkling water flavors! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“A big shout out to Danny.

I previously ordered the Chips and Dip which I love. Originally, I was concerned about how spicy the Aioli was but to my surprise, it was just right. I can't speak as to the atmosphere, but I want to recognize Danny in the South San Francisco location. On October 4, I placed an order with Truffle Poke Bar through Grubhub. I ordered three items, the mango (which is delicious), an order of Chips & Dip and an extra order of the Aioli Dip. Of the three items two were delivered. I immediately reached out to Grubhub and spoke with a supervisor who refused to refund my money for the missing item stating I received too many refunds. I then reached out to Truffle Poke Bar and was contacted the following day by Danny who said he would make things right and that I could order $20 worth of food. Of note is that he agreed that Grubhub frequently misdelivers order. He emphasized with me in that Grubhub refused to issue a refund for a less than $5 item.“

“It’s so yummy 🤤 and the food is so fresh“

“I frequent this place because it is nearby and is one of the few places still open later at night past 9pm when I am off work. I like that there is a good balance between the ingredients, and the salmon always tastes fine. I recommend large because that is enough food for 2 meals, so you get a much better deal for a few dollars more.
It's also really nice to be able to use the paper to choose your order, that way there is no anxiety about taking too long to order or holding up a line. I've never even seen a line here, maybe because I come late night.
There's always an empty parking spot or multiple spots right in front, so it's super quick too. I think it's because of how quickly the staff makes the bowls and from how you order by writing on paper, so nobody has to wait long.
The staff always seem pretty nice, friendly, and patient.
So in my frequent times here, I've never had a bad experience.

Parking: We've always been able to park right in front when we come at night.“
