First of all, you’re better off making your own poke bowl.

The build your own plate comes with your choice of 4 toppings and a charge for each additional topping. The toppings were cut fresh per customer, which is new. You can choose one protein, but they only have tuna, tofu, or imitation crab and edamame for extra charge (?).

My honest review: I’m not sure what I ate, food tasted bland, plain, and unappetizing that I couldn’t even finish it. The place needs to be cleaned, and it’s so awkwardly quiet in there. No public restrooms it looks like but beverages were sold.

Had 3 people in front of us. TOOK 40 minutes to make their food. None of their food was pre prepped. Don't get me wrong. Yes it's nice to see ingredients chopped fresh, but not when there's 1 person working on a busy Saturday.. and on top of that, we finally get to the counter, and THE POKE RESTAURANT RAN OUT OF RICE for my girlfriends bowl.. and this is after they make my wrap. Was planning to stop here to get quick to go food and ended up being here an hour. Food is good. But I do not think we will be returning.

Ula’s has unreasonably slow service for a Poke restaurant. I can appreciate your bowl being custom made; they chop all of your ingredients for you. However, it takes 30 minutes of waiting in line, then another 15 minutes waiting for a poke bowl to be made. Ula’s, please invest time into prepping ingredients to make assembly easier. Grabbing a Poke bowl should be quick and painless, but your process is extremely inefficient. They also ran out of rice for the poke bowls at 3:15pm. They took my order and didn’t tell me they ran out until after they finished my boyfriend’s wrap. As a local, the location is so convenient when you’re running out to the beach. There is so much potential here, but the service is very disappointing.

Went here earlier today for lunch. The gentleman on staff was super friendly and informative, and the bowls were delicious. Hope to return in the future!

We picked up lunch to-go. They were very friendly and wonderful. We ordered poke bowls with rice and ahi but forgot to take pictures ? they were very generous with the toppings and everything was fresh. If I ordered again, I would ask for a little extra on the sauces. It’s a smaller location and there were several people inside, so it was a little noisy and overstimulating, but not a big deal. We plan to go back to get some ceviche next (the poke and ceviche shops are connected with a pass through and it appeared that you could order both options from either side, but we didn’t walk in the “ceviche” side).

A really great place to get a poke bowl. The portions are so generous and the boys working the counter that day were great. They were helpful with suggestions since it was our first time there. They even let us split a meal since my boyfriend is on a low carb diet. They've got the perfect options for low carb. Only thing, the place is cute and tiny, so not a lot of seating. But if you get the chance to sit in, you'll meet a lot of people walking through. Take out a must!

10/10!! Was looking for vegan options in the area and found this great place!! Their tofu bowl & vegetarian ceviche were to die for. Super friendly staff, you pick a protein (we got tofu & black beans) and 4 toppings. The place is also super cute, they play nice music :) Definitely vegan & vegetarian friendly!!

It was actually very good but way too much lime. It messed with the flavor. But I would try and and let them

Legitimately couldn't eat it. Ordered tuna, received tofu, and being someone who does eat tofu it was very bland, along with the rest of the ingredients. Service wasn't great either.

Vegan options galore!! Tofu, black beans, and chickpeas are all protein options! Sauce options are: fsu sauce, sesame oil, soy sauce. tons of raw veggies available too! Very delicious, highly recommend.

Vegetarian options: Tons of vegan options!

They said they could do an ahi sub also, using beets, which sounds interesting!

Horrible place they kicked us out for having drinks from another place even though we did buy food from them. Horrible experience do not recommend and if you do do not bring drinks from other places.
