We had the salmon lover and the garden bowl. For both they were missing half the ingredients, this included vegetables and fish roe. The garden bowl seems like a good vegan/ vegetarian option but it just a glorified 5 ingredient green salad. The salmon lover had a bad ratio of ingredients that just didn't mesh properly. The ingredients seemed fresh but all the portions were off. So you are ordering 3-5 ingredient bowls for $15. Overall a complete rip off and terrible experience. I would never go back or recommend this to anybody else. Please save your time and money by staying away from here.

Nice bright space with large poke bowl portions. I went for the first time recently, having been to another local poke spot many times. While I enjoy both places, this one definitely won on portion, which was my main complaint about the other one (too small). A very nice surprise!Order at the counter or on their self-order screen. Counter order-taker was friendly and cheerful. Food came out within 5 minutes and I sat at a table in the window. Was the only one dining-in, although they were doing a decent pick-up business.I ordered the spicy bowl and it was excellent. It comes with a generous portion of spicy tuna, spicy kani (crab stick) and spicy shrimp over rice, cucumbers, jalapeño, seaweed and tobiko. It looks like the have a nice selection of appetizers, as well. I will try that and bring the family next time!

Came in during jazz fest to grab bowl. One staff lady was disgusting and rude and told me to grab my own chopsticks when I asked for some, and then grabbed them and held them out like I was a kid. Literally watched her smile and hand another customer chopsticks right before I had my food ready. The food was decent, but I'm not a fan of people who pick what customers to be decent towards. I will not be back. Felt humiliated.

First time trying this spot and it was amazing! Portions were more than perfect and everything was fresh (we went around 3pm on a weekday). Out of the many places that I’ve tried, this one is coming out on top! Will definitely be coming back here when I crave a salmon poke bowl.

I love this place - I order from it at least once every week- however my last order , the amount of food they put was down by at least a third. Hardly any of the protein and too much rice. Definitely a bit disappointed. Food was great though but definite reduction in portions.

WARNING: The "GF" soba noodles are not gluten free. We talked to the owner and looked at the noodle package, the package shows wheat flour as an ingredient. The owner says his distributor told him they're gluten free, but packaging doesn't lie. Several people have requested they update the menu, but they have not yet. :(
This is one of my favorite lunch places, so it's a bummer to see they do not take gluten free needs seriously enough to change the menu.
Original review: Love this place! Great poke. I appreciate that you can get avocado without paying $2 extra like I see many other places. The sweet Mayo sauce is great!

Great place to have a bite ! Great taste, great service and great location ! Highly recommend !

They're very fast to fulfill orders. Quality of food is good and portion sizes are on the larger side.

Used to be good when they first opened, not so much anymore. Fish isn't fresh, avocado is over ripe and they skimp on portions and toppings. It's also pretty expensive for what you get.
