I ate a couple of times. The site is good. They serve you quickly and the food is according to the price. They don't have table service although they do have tables so you can sit and eat your poke. What I don't like is how they have the place. The tables are not very clean and they have boxes with containers and bags of rice in the room.

Such a good deal for a fresh and delicious poke bowl. The tofu as a topping is incredible. I used to go here all the time when I lived in ballston

Super yummy and fresh, hit the spot. Ordered older pickup and it was ready in 5 min. Medium quantity, but a good serving of fish.

unless my taste buds are destroyed or something, I literally do not understand how this place has as many stars as it does. The food that i tasted had the same texture of unflavored mashed potatoes that was just drenched in eel sauce that they pawned as some house special. the food that is served here is honestly a disgrace to the vibrant and rich hawaiian community. for me to pay $25 is an abomination.

chicken tasted like it was made last week. It made my belly hurt. rice and edamame were good. The food was definitely not worth the money.

TLDR: Treat it like fast food, and you’ll have a fabulous experience!
The only fresh fast food in the world! Love that I can run in and grab something fresh in under a few minutes. Saw some complaints about quality from a year ago. I cannot speak on other people’s experience,I have been eating here within the last six months, and I have only had excellent food with quality fish here in my experience.
As far as service goes, here is my mentality: These folks are trying to make it as fast as possible, which in Arlington, when you can only park for a certain amount of time, is pretty helpful.
That being said, Ive gotten some pretty nasty looks from one or two of the servers multiple times. But that’s honestly what most food service is like in NOVA/DC area, even at nice places. No weird dialogue or shadiness, they make a bowl, I pay, we both go on our way and it’s no drama.
Definitely don’t judge the servers who are just quiet, theres sometimes just a language barrier at play, which in our region is pretty normal.
Theres two other ladies in particular who work there that are always incredibly kind and accommodating. So, you kind of get what you get in regards to service. I personally don’t judge too much on the service because I really treat this like fast food. It’s refreshing when it’s the kind servers, and just regular annoying when it’s the glaring ones.
Definitely a little overpriced, and not traditional Hawaiian style, but I dare you to find anything that’s not fried in the area for under $18 at this point. Even businesses gotta pay these rent prices.
Atmosphere is fine, Ive eaten in a couple times with no issue!

Very fresh generous and tasty bowl. I could’ve made two meals out of it but it was so good I polished it off. Got from Uber eats and arrived in record time.

I frequent this place because the value is so good - they cram so much food into the bowl, and the service is lightning fast. There’s nothing special about the dine-in experience, so I always take my food to go.

Ordered 2 poke bowls through Uber eats and they didn’t add the salmon that I added as an extra protein to both bowls (cost about $10 extra with taxes and fees). Food itself was decent
