I ordered a tofu poke bowl and it was some of the best crispy tofu I’ve ever had. There aren’t a ton of vegetarian/vegan options (which is normal and to be expected with poke) but this one is worth coming out for. Fresh and quickly prepared. The atmosphere is pretty good too- clean with plenty of seating. Service was fast and friendly. Only downside is it’s just a tiny bit on the expensive side.

Fiance and I tried this spot out for lunch. I was curious since I ate at Sam Choy Island Bar and Grill in Hawaii many years ago and remembered loving their food. I got the loco fries and he got the Korean fried chicken rice plate. The food was delicious!The only minor complaints I have are that the wait was a little longer than expected and the chicken wasn't crispy like the description. That aside, I would be interested in returning to try other items on the menu.

5 oz is just not very much fish, not for the price. Quality of the fish is ok, but not great. Turns out, it’s not really possible to get good Hawaiian poke in Washington. Sam Choy’s is not an exception unfortunately.
