Ordered a salmon poke bowl to go.... Got the bag home to discover no utensils and NO SALMON. Huge disappointment.

Old lady don't even want to put the right amount of meat, guess because is close to chipotle? ?was good but hear me out 15% tip 4.45$????? the amount of money these people make just because men feel embarrassed about not tipping is wild.

My girlfriend and I were there yesterday evening. Upon walking in, the place looks okay. When you get to the service counter and look behind it, the first thing you notice is that it looks like the inside of a storeroom, which really made me wonder about the cleanliness and standard by which they prepare their food. I'm telling you that behind the service counter looks like a garbage dump. Then you notice how unprofessional things are there. The worst was that there was a child sleeping on top of a counter top right behind the cash register. Grandma was having a personal phone call on speakerphone with her dirty bare feet propped up on a chair...yes...right in the food service area. I really thought that when you buy into a franchise, the parent company requires a certain level of ambience and professionalism. Any other Poke Bros establishment that I've been to has some level of decor and professional furnishings behind the counter. Not here. What we saw looked more indicative of one of those old, dirty Chinese restaurants that is family owned. YUCK! I will not be dining at this establishment again.

Poke Bros; as of today, you have gained a new loyal customer. As is characteristic of my comprehensive posts (obviously keeping things concise is not my forté), this one may seem lengthy; I implore you to read in its entirety. There were so many incredible facets to this eatery, I will have to simply begin by highlighting the top 5.

1) incredibly fresh ingredients that appeal to a variety of consumers, including those that adhere to alternative dietary lifestyles.
2) ease of customization; the options are (almost) infinite; whether you'd like something slightly sweet yet savory, or filled with spice (clearly indicated in the detailed, well-designed menu alongside clear-cut pricing; +5 points for aesthetic appeal) , there is truly something for everyone at Poke Bros (including the more health-conscious eater).
3) Incredibly welcoming, tranquil atmosphere; music was calming and at a reasonable volume for those wishing to carry out a conversation over a delicious meal, ample lighting, serene decor; there was an element of Feng Shui to the floor plan that I deeply valued as well. ?
4) Perhaps this should have been at the top of my list; pricing. Unfortunately, Poke Bros is slightly overshadowed by Chipotle in terms of customer-base in my opinion (comparatively, pricing is analogous to that of Chipotle, with heartier portions, healthier options, fresher ingredients, and an overall better dining experience); this could be due to the fact Chipotle is just across the way with a much larger setup, more signage, etc (I included a photo in the attached media demonstrating how easy it is to overlook this true gem simply due to location constraints; State Farm is to the right, Jimmy Johns' to the left, several other sub-par eateries strewn about).
5) The expedient, friendly service. The attendant I spoke with was extremely professional, yet cognizant of incoming customers. How she managed to make me feel comfortable while piecing together my ridiculously meticulous bowl (perfect portions, presentation of meal (10/10) is beyond my understanding.

Additionally, the single-user restroom was impeccable (just as the rest of the eatery; incredibly clean and well-maintained, tactful utilization of space) and included an eco-friendly air dryer as opposed to paper towels; such a mindful choice (+7 points for enviro-friendliness). The highchairs were stacked a safe distance away from the dining space, yet clearly displayed for necessary use (+5 points for kid-friendliness).

Thank you, Poke Bros. Discovering such a lovely establishment truly felt like a win for this Local Guide. ?

Vegetarian options: I rarely highly recommend eateries to the vegetarian community; however, this one exceeded the mark. While the menu is not completely vegetarian, there is truly a large vegetarian selection of toppings/ main course replacements. Perhaps my favorite aspect of the meal was the crisp freshness of vegetables included, as well as the hearty portions.

Dietary restrictions: Well in this regard, Poke Bros truly exceeded my expectations. Not only was the vegan Lychee mochi a "must-try" (no taste jeopardized at the expense of ingredients here), but everything felt so incredibly customizable; you can even substitute rice (white, brown, or sushi) which acts as the base of the poke bowl for salad; or split the base into half-portions, if you so desire (based on your level of commitment/ individual dietary lifestyle undertakings). I was incredibly impressed with this aspect of the dining experience.

Parking: The parking lot is a part of the complex itself (not specific to just Poke Bros) but considering this phenomenal eatery is situated in between other (slightly more popular) spots, I'd implore you to venture outside of your comfort zone next time you feel inclined to opt for Chipotle/ one of the other surrounding eateries.

DO NOT EAT HERE

I walked in to pick up my order and someone behind the counter was changing a baby’s diaper next to the food prep area.

They put extra scoops of fish without asking me if I wanted them and then charged me for them.

while my bowl tasted good and the sauces were quite delicious, the portions are extremely skimpy especially for the price. not to mention, they must have used low quality or old fish since several of my family members and i had food poisoning upon eating it.

Poke Bros is tucked back in a tiny side strip mall off 22nd Street. The place is very clean and ingredients are fresh and replenished throughout the day. Service is fast and things are nicely packed. The dining are is pretty decent. The seats are wood and can become uncomfortable if you sit there too long.
My bowl had a good amount of tuna and a combo of brown rice and salad greens. The ginger coconut dressing is very good. Everything is made in house daily! There’s a good variety of fresh fish and a nice variety of veggie and sauce choices to please every palate!
Parking can be a little tricky but they do offer additional parking farther down.

This location lacks quantity, sadly a very light bowl compared to the other poke bros locations but fresh products.
