“This was one of the best meals of my life!
I love all the ingredients you can choose for “poke your way” and they are 100% fresh.
Music and atmosphere here is amazing and service is the best, workers are so kind, especially Steven.

Absolutely recommend, if you’re looking for something healthy and tasty ☺️“

“Absolutely wonderful spicy tuna poke bowl. I highly recommend this place. We got takeout and it was ready fast. Great price. Amazing poke bowl. This is definitely a place we will frequent!!!!!“

“I had an event at Aloha NYC Lounge. The Playa Ball 2018! WE HAD SOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!! We were treated like we've been doing business with this establishent for years, as opposed to first time clients! Mr. Bosch is extremely professional! When we were scouting out locations for our event, our first choice was an establishment in Brooklyn, NY, because it was closer and it already had that 70's look. Not much decoration, if any, would be needed. However, when we arrived to talk business, there were 3 patrons and the owner appeared to not have time to talk money. So, what he did was hand me a piece of paper with the rules and what they'd need from me, shook my hand and walked away. We jumped back in the car and headed to Aloha NYC! Walking in, you could see there was definitely an event going on. Still feeling slighted from the last place we sought out, I didn't have the confidence this would go any better, because THIS owner was obviously busy! Mr. Bosch had a rap showcase happening in the back room, and he was setting up for 2 more events that would take place that evening as well! Do you know that man took the time to talk to me about my event!?! No, it wasn't a rushed conversation! He wanted to know my vision for my event, then explained how having it at the Aloha NYC Lounge would work. That young man was spot on!!!!! It was great!!!!!! We had such a wonderful time, we've decided to have "The Playa's Ball 2019" at Aloha NYC also!!!!! The place is kept immaculate! The staff are very professional and friendly! Walking in, is like walking into "Cheers!" I'm looking forward to you joining us for our next event there! Great job, Aloha NYC! ?????See you soon!!!!“

“Had a great time with a group of 7 , good food and good wine“

“I love this location! And Gian is the absolute best, speedy service and always brings the good vibes. With all these expensive restaurants opening up in the neighborhood, it's nice to have a reliable and affordable lunch option. Plus the ingredients are always on point, good selection and always fresh.“

“My first experience with poke, and Pokeplus exceeded my expectations. You are offered a surprising array of ingredients with which to build a bowl to your exact tastes. All ingredients are fresh, and service was welcoming and friendly. The location is right around the corner from 71st-Continental Ave subway station, and Queens Blvd bus service all give easy access. Unless you are already accustomed to exotic ingredients, be prepared for a surprising new and delightful cuisine.“

“My first time to Pokemoto. I was a bit overwhelmed at all of the options, but what an absolutely amazing experience! My tuna bowl was fantastic!“

“I just love this place and the food is always delicious and fresh. Yay! It is my favorite place to pick up something yummy. Bonus that the owners are lovely people - friendly, kind and happy - and I enjoy my bowl so much, I keep coming back. Stop in here, you will not be disappointed.“

“Great find. Very clean place and great food.“

“Wow, I remember coming here in the early-to-mid 2010s, when Intelligentsia Coffee was in this location. I just simply liked this Sunset House medium poke bowl, but maybe I should've customized it to get more of what I like. Still, good food at a place that's relaxing & stimulating at the same time.“

“The Spicy Ahi bowl is where it's at. Best I've ever had, decent price, very clean and very tasty. Would recommend 10 times out of 10.“

“Love quality Hawaiian comfort food. Everything is amazing! Quick grab and go food for a good price. Every order i got was full they did not hold back on filling the plates. I’ve been back a few times just because i need to try all my favorite everything’s on the menu. Highly recommend it!“

“PokeBowl station is my go-to spot for fresh, delicious poke bowls! The ingredients are always high quality, and the portions are generous. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with recommendations. Their great service makes the experience even better. Highly recommend for a quick, healthy, and tasty meal!“

“Classic corporate bowl spot. The line gets long between 12:15 and whenever you want to go, so go early. If you are NOT going for lunch during your workday you should go somewhere else! I like that they have cold and hot protein options and I like to ask for half zucchini noodles and half brown rice because I am very health-conscious. If you are not health-conscious, I am not trying to slight you but rather state my experience and feelings. Thanks.“

“Tiki poke is one of my favorite restaurants of all time, they’ve got some of the friendliest service I’ve ever received! the food is some of the best in town and walking here is always a highlight of my day. The food is affordable even for just two kids going out to hang round and the food is fantastic. The atmosphere is incredibly warm and inviting, and they make the absolute best eggs in the ramen!!“

“Very cute decor and entry than a upper level of seatings. Love the option of creating your own bowl. Pen and menu ready for you place your own order. Wasnt much service or greetings exchanged either but just got some grins. Service point vise definitely needs improvements. We created our own bowls. Love and enjoyed every part of it. All fresh ingredients. Tuna and salmon so fresh. Portion wasn't as big as my 8 yr old daughter could finish her bowl and still not full. We also ordered 2 light bulb drinks. The pina colda was really good. I always ask for less sweet and they made it. Got pineapple bits in it. The passion fruit came with jelly. Was too sweet even requested to make it less sweet. Overall we enjoy our lunch. We pay for fresh ingredients and good quality food and received it. The poke bowls were delish with compliment of their sauces. We got to try them. Definitly go back if we are around the area. Again services can improve.“

“The mood here fits exactly what I wanted for my meal. They brought everything promptly. The overall mood elevates the dining experience. The team provided excellent service and dishes arrived quickly. You'll find what you're looking for here.“

“Splash Poke is hands down one of my favorite spots.

The staff is genuinely kind and remembers me when I come in, which makes each visit feel personal and welcoming. The portions are always generous, and they really go all out with the toppings, which are both fresh and delicious.

The ingredients are always incredibly fresh, and you can tell a lot of care goes into sourcing and preparing each item. Their sauces are flavorful and add the perfect finishing touch to the bowls. And the drinks are just as delicious, pairing perfectly with the poke.

If you’re looking for a place that consistently delivers quality and a warm, welcoming experience, Splash Poke is the spot. Highly recommend!"“

L&L Hawaiian Barbecue serves up a variety of Hawaiian comfort foods from plates of barbecued meat + rice + macaroni salad to saimin (noodle dishes) to musubis and burgers & sandwiches.

picked up dinner here back in July. meant to review sooner, but LIFE.

ordered BBQ Chicken plate-- thin slices of chicken in bbq sauce. the chicken is a mix of sweet and savory. thin grilled slices of meatiness. the rice is essential bc it soaks up the bbq sauce and grilled chicken flavors. the Hawaiian style macaroni salad brings the tasty carbs of tanginess & creaminess with a touch of sweetness. the way the plate mixes flavors into satisfying umami-ness. the helping is generous and i split into two meals because there was so much of everything.

SPAM Musubi--served warm. grilled spam + rice, wrapped in crispy seaweed. this was fine. all the flavors are there. however I would stick with the bigger bites on the menu or another side order os macaroni salad.

the interior is well-maintain, clean, and casual sit-down interior. there's a decent amount of tables if you want to dine in. the staff is friend;y and accommodating. my to-go order was neatly wrapped up and bagged.

if you are looking for a different kind of comfort food, L&L Hawaiian Barbecue has got a lot of options for you. it's also nice to have a place to grab some enjoyable Hawaiian calories without a 10-hour plane flight! though, i'd still rather be in Maui or the Big Island--when are getting that teleportation thing going?? Ha“

“I love this place! The variety is amazing, the food quality is always consistent, and I appreciate that I can come here every day and still enjoy something healthy, fresh, and fulfilling. Definitely one of my favorite go-to spots in the neighborhood.“

“I think you'll enjoy this spot as much as I do every time I visit. They practice honest pricing here. The food quality exceeds what you'd expect for these prices. Service quality was great, with pleasant employees who frequently ensured our satisfaction. An impressively good visit.“

“Yummy food, and so healthy🤗“

“Poke bowl, you just won another loyal customer!

I accidentally placed my order at another location and didn’t realize it until I went to pick up the order. The manager overheard and he was so kind. He asked me to just order it again at the counter and NO CHARGE!

The manager didn’t have to do this but he took care of me. It’s windy day today and I did not spend my entire lunch time to walk another half mile one way to retrieve my lunch and come back.

Thank you Poke Bowl! It is hard to find this kind of customer care at a fast food lunch spot these days. I will be back, like always.“

“Wonderfully diverse options for use in your bowl. I tried the Korean BBQ Pork h Teriyaki Salmon over Soba Noodles. Added guacamole, seaweed salad, mango, fish eggs, scallions, mushrooms plus a couple of sauces. Very flavorful, but still complementary.“

“I've used Poke Bowl for their catering services for corporate lunch and food is always tasty. Delivery was prompt and right on time. Very easy to clean up afterwards as well since each serving comes in their individual bowl. Payment process was simple using online system. Would recommend Poke Bowl for your next event since its different from the traditional salad + sandwich combo.

Vegetarian options: Tofu and tons of veggie options.“

“I love everything my favorite drinks are the bubble tea .. can’t wait for the grand opening by Barclay Center I live walking distance..!!!!!“

“Decided to try this place out good prices, however the only bad thing was how my spicy salmon was blended up, not my cup of tea I think regular salmon with spicy mayo would’ve been better. Don’t understand why some poke places do that don’t blend the spicy salmon!!! But other than that it was good and I enjoyed the shrimp gyoza“

“got the huli huli bowl.....amazing! food is phenomenal, restaurants clean, staff a nice!“

“Poke is VERY good! Yummy to my tummy :-)“

“Poke Zest is one of my favorite spots!
The ingredients are always fresh, and there are so many sauce options to choose from. They recently added a new chicken rice dish, I tried the fried chicken version, and it was even better than I expected! Crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked.“

“delicious food. great music.“

“This poke bowl was absolutely delicious—I only wish I had discovered this place sooner! All of the ingredients were fresh and flavorful, and the service was quick and efficient. The restaurant itself was very clean and welcoming. I made my own bowl with salmon and spicy tuna, and both proteins were excellent—though I do wish the portions were a bit larger. Overall, a great spot that I’ll definitely be coming back to!“

“got the huli huli bowl.....amazing! food is phenomenal, restaurants clean, staff a nice!“

“Excellent Poke Bowls. Best I've ever had in Manhattan. I had a lot of Poke bowls at different locations and this one is the best tasting. Nice Hawaiian themed decor.“

“This place never disappoints. The food is always good; the staff is always friendly and the ambiance is always welcoming and relaxed. Recommend the smash burger; the kimchi and phili steak sandwich; the fries ( any of them ) and the Ceasars salad. Honestly you can't go wrong with anything offvthe menu.“

“YOU HAVE TO GO HERE! This is my favorite restaurant I go at least once a week. Poke is a bit pricey., but definitely worth it especially here. They have so many topping and protein options. The atmosphere is so cute! The staff is so friendly. I’m friends with everyone and the manager is so kind! Totally recommend“

“Wiki Wiki serves meals that justify every penny spent. Employees handled needs quickly, efficiently, and kindly. The kitchen delivers exceptional results. The restaurant's ambiance matches its appearance. Wiki Wiki truly understands customer satisfaction.“

“The food here speaks directly to your taste buds. The staff impresses with responsiveness, and the food with freshness and flavor. Workers show attentiveness, provide answers willingly and deliver excellent assistance. Every item I've tried was tasty. The pricing structure is reasonable for such good food.“

“Poke was fresh and delicious! Great quality and quantity for the price. Totally worth it!“

“4.5 / 5.0 - I was in Chinatown and stopped by late afternoon for a late lunch at this casual, counter-service poke spot.
It was nice and clean inside, with seating available along the walls.

I chose the Ponzu Salmon ($18+), which had salmon, avocado, cucumber, shiso, tobiko and katsuo panko.
It came with wasabi ponzu, which I asked for on the side because I do not like wasabi. The staff was insistent that the wasabi flavor was mild, but I simply do not like the flavor and ended up eating most of the bowl without it.
The bowl itself was delicious and I especially loved the flavor that the shiso added.

Chinatown isn’t the first place you’d think of for Hawaiian cuisine, but I’d recommend trying if you like poke.“

“I would strongly recommend paying this place a visit. The food is great and the service is very fast.“

“Customer service, polite and friendly.“

“As many times as I've eaten here over the years and forgot to post my original poke bowl place. Which, of course, I still eat their. Always fresh ingredients and good people working there. This is always my go-to poke bowl and will never change.Mixed greens, brown rice, 3 orders of chicken, cucumbers, kale, crab salad, seaweed, tomatoes, mushrooms, spicy mayo, sesame seed, cilantro and garlic chips.Sometimes avocado, every now and then. Try one. Trust me, you will like it.“

“The dishes here are incredible and this is my first time trying them. The workers displayed exceptional support and friendliness. The waiters performed perfectly alongside creative dishes. The place embodies local character authentically. I'll make a point to return.“

“First time & enjoyed some mango boba bubble tea & green apple. Would revisit“

“I'm absolutely coming back soon. The staff treats you well, meals taste great, and serving sizes satisfy. You know you're eating something fresh. The worker made us feel exceptionally important. Every element contributes to success at this spot.“

“Vegan chicken bowl is delicious 😋“

“I would strongly recommend paying this place a visit. The food is great and the service is very fast.“

“They say you get what you pay for! The service was excellent, the chi ginger tea and cheese was heavenly!“

“My made own bowl and it was the best poke I ever had! I used spicy shrimp and spicy salmon, cauliflower rice as a base, also spicy miso dressing. So it got a lot of spice exactly how I like! Everything was fresh and it was a perfect, healthy meal after long day at work“
