Nasty place, smells so bad. Service ladies not nice, idk it’s Rio area that mean??‍♀️. Reminded me in the barber shop with my son. It was my first time, and for sure it’s would be my last!

The lady in the front was eating when I walked in then jumped straight to making my money. Didn’t wash her hands or nothing. She also skimped a lot with the protein, for a total of $16 I basically paid for rice and toppings.

I work near by and go here on occassion as there are no sushi places in Rio. Fish is fresh and lots of options to select for toppings. Service is super fast and friendly.I know it's a small item but if you are gonna charge close to $17 for a poki bowl, can you at least get some good disposable chopsticks? The last two pair I had literally broke apart.

The food was good. Service is kind of minimal but a good place if you're looking for a quiet meal.

Poke DC is the best, easiest and nicest poke bowl place I have ever experienced. The simplicity makes for a pressure free experience. There are many other items on the menu which I have not even tried yet. I probably should give him the quality of their ingredients, service and just expectations in general. I look forward to going back there.

This place has gotten so skimped. It used to be my favorite place to go eat the lady today under scooped where I used to get each scoop would be super hefty these were barely filled. Got a large and a small and it ended up about 5 dollars more than posted. And I wasn’t given a receipt with my order very unhappy with how serving sizes have developed in the past year.

I need fast casual to be CLEAN - especially when they serve raw fish. So far, so pleased. The spicy tuna was too mild though. I will return .

I ordered a poke bowl for delivery with 3 proteins, brown rice and quinoa, and many toppings.It was really good! I loved having so many options that I could add to the bowl, make it taste good, and be worth the price. For the ingredients, the salmon and tuna were fresh, and the flavors were great. I loved the balance of sweet and savory sauces with the soft and crispy textures. The only thing I wished would've been better was the rice and quinoa base. I didn't really notice much quinoa, so I was a little disappointed. Hopefully they can add more next time.Overall, I recommend Poki DC! If you don't want sushi rolls and pieces, a poke bowl from here is the way to go.

They sent me marketing emails without my consent. I never gave them my email because I would never use my professional email associated with my banking and business to subscribe to advertisements. With thousands of emails I get for my business every year, I cannot deal with aggressive marketing like this. Its extremely unethical. And I hope more people complain.

I don't go here often because I think it is a bit pricey for a small bowl but the food is good. It is conveniently located in Rio area. Small place with few tables. Service was good. My husband and I got the poki bowls. I got the shrimps and tofu in my bowl while my husband got tuna which he said did not taste fresh, so that was disappointing.

Super FRESH ingredients, including the raw spicy tuna and salmon, cut veggies, seaweed, kimchi, and homemade Hawaiian sauces (honey wasabi sauce was on-point) were amazing. In addition to the clean, crisp and fresh food, the portion of the Poke Bowl is perfection. Well worth the $16.00.

Poki DC is the best poki in the DC area. So many options for the bowl! I ordered a three-topping bowl and relished every bite of the seafood, egg-avocado salad, and other fresh, delicious ingredients. Like every other restaurant in this chain, this shop is clean and offers friendly, efficient service. Don't forget to check in through Yelp for the free miso soup or mochi. This shop is right across from AMC Rio, which offers a ton of movie options.

This is chipotle but the asian version, with more selection , ironically it’s located right across the street from it, anyway Poki DC at Rio is a delightful spot for poke lovers! This restaurant offers a range of fresh and customizable poke bowls. The ingredients are top-notch, and the flavor combinations are fantastic.One aspect to note is the parking situation, which can sometimes be challenging due to the popularity of the Rio area. It's advisable to plan accordingly or consider alternative transportation options. Also its summer 2023 but their AC didnt seem to work , so they had lots of fans. It didn’t ruin the experience thoOverall, Poki DC is a must-visit for poke enthusiasts looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal. Just keep in mind the potential parking challenge, but the delicious poke bowls make it well worth the visit.
