Our favourite place for this type of food. Absolutely delicious and very high quality food. Expensive buy you definitely get what you pay for. Will always be ordering from here.

Ordered a few times, I don't know if it's just with their beef but I always get such small portions of meat. This time I decided to order a double portion and it genuinely looked no different than the single which was frustrating since I paid extra. The food is really good, just the protein portions are questionable for the price.

I always got it as takeout. It’s arguably the best poke box in all of Canada — even in North America. From 2019 to 2021, I ate it the most, basically every week. Salmon, tuna, and tempura shrimp were my favorites. Back then, the portions were very generous and everything was extremely fresh.

Went in at 11, and got a salmon poke bowl. Half the salmon was inedible- mushy and fishier than the other. I think it was old from the previous day.

Poke box deliveres consistent and delicious Poke. The meals transport well and every time I order the experience is high quality.

The staff is able to consistently handle extensively customized poke boxes based on dietary needs and preferences.

In recent years the price has been increasing in order to maintain this quality.

Went for lunch on a Sunday and it was a great experience. Contemporary interior, fresh ingredients, and easy ordering!

I got a build-your-own poké bowl, medium sized ($14.50 after all toppings added). I got it with salmon, crab salad, edamame, red onion, kale, avocado, hot sauce, spicy aioli, pickled ginger, green onion, crispy onion, jalapeno, and furikake. All over some sushi rice, it was fresh, well-balanced, and very tasty. The avocado stood out though, because it was perfectly ripe and super smooth, definitely recommend it.

Ordering was easy, you can either order at the register or have a seat and order online via QR code. I think the QR code was better since there was no rush and you could see all the options laid out.

The atmosphere was contemporary and cute. The one thing that made the experience a bit annoying was the music. The speakers were playing some cinematic piano/movie music and it was so incredibly loud for no reason, way too loud for the establishment and made conversation a bit difficult. Otherwise, it was a nice restaurant.
