Poke World - Cordova

Wish I reviewed their latest health score rating before visiting yesterday because it explains a lot of the things I experienced. I had never had a poke bowl, but my husband checked their website and ensured me they had ramen. Although advertised on their website and logo, this location does not offer ramen. We both got poke bowls and the first clue that things weren’t going to go well was that every other customer was only ordering bubble tea. My rice was hard, the veggies tasted awful like they were soaked in vinegar. The protein options are likely frozen, leaving the “refreshing” poke bowl experience something to be desired and completely unsatisfying. The cherry on top is now having food poisoning symptoms 24 hours later. Highly recommend sticking to their bubble tea and their bubble tea only!

Love their drink i like it

The rice was hard and clumped up. All of the meat was basically ground up mush instead of being cubed. I have never had either of these issues at any other place so maybe that's how they do it here but I'm not a fan. Also no fountain drinks, just cans of whatever you are looking for.

The best bubble tea.

I’m so glad I found a poke location! I went around 11am and it wasn’t busy at all. I got the 2 protein poke bowl and honestly they give you a great portion for the price and the Bubble Tea was half price! Will be back! I liked the fact that I got to build my own poke bowl and it’s truly is flavorful! Also got Taro Bubble Tea which was soooo good! Will be back!

Looks like dog food and taste mid

Economical and delicious

A very nice spot with an extensive menu that is a little intimidating unless you know what you like but the people are helpfuls

Staff was friendly enough. I got brown rice for my bowl and some of the rice was severely overcooked so it felt like I had rocks in my food. Decently priced but I wouldn’t go back.

Love love love poke world! I wish I still lived in cordova cause I would be there way more! Excellent bowls and very tasty milk teas!

The have sooo good doubts taste so good and this day have nice fresh ice cream

I’ve been here a million times and the bowls are on point 98% of the times. The other 2% was due to off ratios of the ingredients, but most times than not, it’s right. With that being said, the price has steadily increase, like everything else. The paper menus need to be updated because they’re off by like a dollar. So just make sure you’re cross checking prices with the mounted digital menus. The 2 protein bowl was $15.35. If you love sushi but sometimes a few rolls don’t quite hit the spot, try this spot out. I’ll stack this against Chipotle any day. See pictures to steal my order.

Really good poke and boba tea

So I used to really like this place but the last time I went the poke bowl was yucky. They use chopped proteins now....so instead of chunks of spicy tuna, it is tuna pate or mousse.
