The Low-Key Poke Joint

**September 2024: Afternoon Visit**I've visited on two different occasions as I wanted something filling but also nutritious. This shops is nestled in a bustling Asian strip mall and the setting is fast casual. The first time I visit I ordered a regular (three scoops) with hula rice (purple jasmine rice) and salmon belly. I've never seen salmon belly as a protein option so I decided to get two scoops of that and one regular salmon. The salmon belly is much fattier so it has a more lush taste versus the regular salmon cut. Patrons customize the toppings and from all the poke shops that I've visited I really like the offerings of this one. The service is also kind, and fast. The shop is kind of out of the way for me since I'm not in that part of Westminster often, but if I'm in the mood for salmon belly, this is a good option, but do come early as they run out of salmon belly later in the evening. Enjoy!

The Low-Key Poke Joint is located in a busy shopping center in Garden Grove. Luckily there is a large parking lot with plenty of spaces so it's not too difficult to find a slot, but it does get busy as there are many businesses in this shopping center. The food was fine, a little pricey for a small poke bowl with 3 proteins. The sauces were also fine, would return if I find myself in the area.

It was decent, but I don't think I'd go back. Got the hot cheetorito (burrito) because it sounded pretty epic, but it was definitely bland lol couldn't taste any Cheeto anything The fish is fresh but there isn't a whole lot of flavor to their food. The sauces are the only thing that saved the meal Sadly, not really worth the hype.

Been a long time customer guys, you can tell from my post 8 years ago. Hate to admit it but you guys have been slacking... Since last summer, quality hasn't been up to par. Salmon has been very fishy (literally every time) and there's always this thick chick that is always a c^+t for no damn reason. I'd really hate for you guys to loose business over poor management.

**Pretty filling & big poke.** At about $20 for a regular bowl, you get a lot of value here. They start you off with 3 proteins, instead of the usual 2, making it a substantial meal. The menu offers a good variety of options, and they've made the ordering process straightforward. I even saw someone order the 5-scoop bowl--it was massive! The salad comes with ponzu sauce, which pairs well, though the sides are limited (no mango, for example). They offer complimentary water, but not extras like tea or cucumber-infused water. I'm curious to try the bamboo rice next time. Still exploring the area for my go-to poke spot, but this place is promising.edit: it did kinda hurt my stomach so maybe quality is okay like previous reviews have said.

I recently went to low key poke, a place I used to really enjoy. Unfortunately, it wasn't great this time. The poke bowls, which were once fresh and tasty, now felt bland, and the fish quality has dropped. The toppings were also sparse and unexciting.The service was below average. The staff seemed uninterested, took a long time with our orders, and didn't check on us.It's disappointing to see a place I liked go downhill. I hope they can improve, but for now, I can't recommend it.

We have $10 monthly grubhub credit so we usually just grab lowkey poke for a quick dinner! Ready quickly and generous portions

I've been coming here for the past couple years when I have a poke craving. The fish is usually fresh with tons of topping options and sauces to choose from. They weight the fish for exact scale measuments and anything extra they will charge you. For example if you ask for extra empty bowl.

I am unsure how to feel about this poke spot because the quality is inconsistent.I have eaten here a total of 5 times--3 throughout the years and 2 just in this past week. In the 3 times that I visited in the past, the rice was hard, making the poke bowl unpleasant to eat and difficult to digest. In these recent 2 times, the rice was nice and soft and everything tasted great; however, the second visit resulted in me being on the toilet 2 hours later. I really enjoy the flavored rice (I only get bootea but hula sounds good too), the variety of sauces (although I dislike that we are limited to only 2 at a time), and the option for salmon belly, which is so fatty and delicious. The upside is that the poke is delicious, but the downside is that the quality is inconsistent, and you might need to go to the toilet after?

Good poke will definitely come back, fish is fresh and the rice taste great. They have a garlic green rice which is delicious. Service was good as well got go wrong with this place for a quick bite to eat.
