I see why this place is empty, its cuz the owner here in Isla Vista is so rude plus always giving the wrong items and flavor , look away and don't stop...

AC was broken when we went. Which makes me question a sushi place with not good quality air. It was more pricy than average poke places I go to. I would give it a 6/10

Great food, very friendly staff members, always excellent character. They charge reasonable rates and the food quality is very good. Highly recommended.

Rice was hard and dry. Fish was OK. Toppings meh, charge extra for avocado and they only put on 2 small slices.

Staff(only female) refused to serve me while I had my certified service animal with me(In my arms) refusing to see his card or acknowledge that he’s legally certified. Highly displeased with the food and service here.

None of the food was properly seasoned, the rice has no taste. The only food I liked was the spam mususbi but the spam already comes seasoned.

Fish wasn’t good quality and rice was alright. Not worth going to for the poke.

Don’t often review, and didn’t think you could do a poké bowl badly, but definitely the worst poké I’ve had. Still edible, but pretty bland and badly seasoned. Don’t consider myself a picky eater either. Like others have said, staff totally unenthused (doesn’t seem like a great place to work). D tier poke bowl.

Order a bowl on doordash. What a disappointment. The rice was 80% of the bowl and it was sooooooo dense. It was like a brick of rice. And they only included 1 packet of soy sauce. It was such a shame because the salmon and the tuna was not that bad but wasn't enough to help me with the brick'o'rice. Cant understand how you can ffff an fffffing poke bowl like that.
I just paid $20 for a half empty poke bowl... Really disappointed. It was supposed to be 3 base (2 salad and 1 noodles) + 2 protein (tuna and ceviche) + toppings (cucumber, masago and crispy onion). .. but just looked so sloppily put together and like someone ate the other half of my order.

Edit: Modifying this review from 2 to 3 stars as the owner contacted me and it seems to be an honest and sincere effort to improve, and I understand it can be hard to run a small business during the COVID situation (and always). :) I did not take any compensation to improve this review. (I can't anyways as I don't live nearby. :P)

Best poke ever. The catered for us at work and the food couldn't be any better. Meals were wrapped individually and the food was beyond tasty and fresh. Mike, the regional manage is helpful, accommodating and generous. The staff is friendly and very efficient. I highly recommend this place.

I go to this place once a week. The food is amazing, service is outstanding and you can just taste how fresh the food is. Such good quality! I highly recommend this poke restaurant before ANYWHERE else. Do yourself a favor and try PokeCeviche!

Man, the food here just tasted bad. Great service, very fast to get my order done, but the overall quality of the food really made me regret buying it. The rice was really soggy, the crab salad was really dry somehow...I would not eat here again.
