Grindz Poke - Brea

overcooked and watery rice just wayyyy too much rice in the bowl in generali got a medium bowl and the ratio of fish to rice was just so offfish was OK, I would not recommend this place.

Sorry this is long but worth the read: I truly should have checked the reviews before coming here. I was excited to find a Poke place close to my office but it turned about to be a sad disappointment. I should have known the second I walked through the door... there wasn't a single person in line (during the lunch rush) and it smelled a bit funky but I thought little of it. Most of the fish didn't look good in the containers but the salmon and tuna looked fresh so I opted for those. The topping choice was dismal but whatever. I used the restroom just after ordering and that was the writing on the wall. It was extremely dirty. I would not recommend this place to anyone. They have a lot of work to do... I think it's time for a rebrand. Now onto my first bite! The salmon tasted horrible and I threw the bowl away immediately to prevent any chance of food poisoning... and that's that :(To the owner: I think you can do a lot better. Consider taking a trip to other poke restaurants for some inspiration :)

Cassie took my order she is so sweet! The place was empty when I came in, I tried this place once before and it was pretty good! I'm not a big poke bowl person but needed something healthy to eat today. So decided on this, I got one protein, salmon and white rice with spicy crab, spicy mayo, onions, scallions and some fried onions for some texture, also some cucumbers and ginger! Very simple but delicious bowl, the salmon was a tiny bit on the fishy side but I still ate almost the entire bowl. I got my bowl quickly they have inside seating. Lots of parking it's near Albertoson's and a bank. I would come back here it's not my first choice but the service was amazing so that makes me want to come back again. Thank you for fantastic service and my delicious poke bowl.Have a beautiful day :)Aloha

Some of the best Poke I ever had! Was not impressed at first. Place is small but clean, menu is modest, prices high. And the scoop they use to retrieve fish is so small it might as well be a thimble. I got their "Medium" with 3 thimbles, their large is 5. Tuna, spicy tuna, and salmon; brown rice; all the toppings plus extra seaweed, and house sauce. Delicious!

I love to eat poke and there's a ton of places around town. I didn't do my research and came here spontaneously. Unfortunately, the scoops were really small and the portions were small overall. That's really the big point for me when it comes to poke. I wouldn't come here again unless that changed.

There's a guy in here. I don't know if he's the manager or white. He was excessively rude to me. I ended up just having to use the restroom. He explained to me that it's for customers only and I apologized kindly. He then proceeded to be excessively rude to me and state that it's a liability. I told him that I can give him a dollar or something for using the bathroom. He then proceeded to tell me. Oh you can't just walk into people's homes. And we are closed, it's literally a minute before they opened, and the guy was excessively rude, and I he was appalled at his behavior I didn't understand what the issue was. I simply went in to use the bathroom. I told him I would not hold him liable for anything but I seriously do not recommend this place because It did not even leave a good taste in my mouth to even give them business

My husband and I got very sick yesterday after eating here. Too bad, since we used to come here quite a bit. Everything looked fresh and good. The poke bowls we got tasted fine. Prices are good also.

Been going here for years, since it opened and had its original name. Good prices, good costumer service almost every time. Love the atmosphere inside. Food is yummy. Wish you had more ingredients and added more rice to the bowls though! Overall worth it.

The Korean boy with the Mcdonald shaped hair cut is such a great worker (Bad memory, but I believe his name is Aidan)! There was also a petite Asian girl next to him that was very kind, she looked like a little bean. As soon as I walked through the door, he gave me a nice smile and said "Hello! Welcome to Grindz!" A lot of the reviews say the bathroom was dirty, but when I walked in he was scrubbing the inside of the toilet like it was life or death. It was so clean I would lick the floor. The food was quite scrumptious. I got a medium sized bowl with the salmon and the crab. I didn't get the spicy crab because I don't have a good spice tolerance (I would go crazy on the toilet that he just cleaned) so I resorted to the regular. The crab was so delicious with the mayonnaise sauce. Not a huge fan of raw fish, but the salmon was such a good texture, it just dissolved in my mouth. Yummy! I also decided to get the corn chips and guava juice, granted it was store bought. But extra points for even having it! Overall, I really enjoyed dining at Grindz. For a "fast-food" like restaurant the quality, ambiance, and the service was on par with a Michelin restaurant! 10/10 recommend for anybody looking for a quick and delectable bite!

I don't leave reviews often but the salmon was not fresh and a little sour tasting, I ended up having to throw it away :(
