Pretty sure they’ve closed their doors, but this used to be my go-to spot for poke in Allston.
The appeal was simple. They were incredibly generous with the protein. They never skimped on the fish, and both the spicy salmon and tuna were consistently solid.
My only gripe was their aggressive edamame ratio. By default, they’d load the bowl with an insane amount of beans, which completely threw off the flavor balance. I eventually developed a ritual of picking most of them out before even taking a first bite. Easier than remembering to ask them to leave it off I suppose.

This is a restaurant located in a food court. It is self-service, and the food tastes good. You can conveniently place your order through a kiosk.
Parking: Parking is available at the Chinese market's parking lot, and it is free.

The phone number is wrong.
You go and order with a screen, which makes it very clear and easy, and then they make your bowl very fast. It is delicious! The atmosphere is like you are in China, I guess. Nice!

Located inside Super Market 88. The ingredients tasted really fresh. i feel like the bowl is a little rice heavy (i would’ve preferred more goodies instead of rice). Their sauce was delicious though!
Best price for quality & quantity I can find in the Boston area for poke. Recommend the eel, yuzu miso mayo, and fried garlic/onion/lotus as standout addins in addition to the rest of the good stuff.
Vegetarian options: Great for a pescatarian but it'd be really overpriced for a vegetarian or vegan.
Parking: Park at Hong Kong Supermarket - it's worth popping in there anyhow
Wheelchair accessibility: The only door without stairs is the main supermarket entrance on the parking lot side

YUUUUM. The fact that you can get a medium bowl (2 protein!) for like $16 is amazing. I built my own bowl and some of the options were extra but the screen to order is very easy and clear and the guy making my food was super nice and did a beautiful job. Definitely hitting this place up again next time I'm up there ???
Traffic is crazy to get there but it's worth it when you know what to expext.
Vegetarian options: Plenty on many menus
Kid-friendliness: Visually appealing
Fresh and tasted great !
