Poke Boba House

My husband and I visited here a few months ago and to be honest, it wasn't as good as other poke places in town. I wasn't going to review it because I didn't have much to say about it. And I wasn't planning a return visit.Then recently, my husband ate there when I was doing something else. When I got home he told me there were leftovers in the fridge.So I knew something must be off because this man almost never has leftovers.In the fridge I found a bowl with a lot of rice and a really large amount of edamame. He told me that he had even eaten a full-sized serving of rice and edamame at the restaurant, but there had been such a large amount of it compared to other ingredients that he couldn't finish.But worse, it had a pronounced "fishy" odor to it. Did not smell fresh or appealing at all.Thanks, honey.

Delicious drinks and helpful employees! They have one of the biggest drink menus I've seen at a boba shop and I loved the options to have real fruit, chia, aloe, etc in the drink. The chicken bites had a nice kick to them and tasted even better dipped in spicy mayo.

From their friendly smile when you enter to the deliciously simple dishes they serve. I see why they received the Best of Omaha vote! I loved it so much I came back! I enjoyed my meal with a Thai Tea. The day before I had a poke bowl... and soup. But today it was soup only. Warmed my soul. Thanks for a great treat.

I took a classic boba stop while on a long road trip, and downtown Omaha was the place to go! Poke Boba is really cute from the outside. But unfortunately I can't exactly say the same about the inside. It almost seemed like they were renovating or missing something, or maybe it was just due to the still closing pandemic. They had a very nice and ranging menu. I didn't try a poke bowl so I can only speak for the drinks. I got a passionfruit drink with tapioca. The passionfruit was excellent. It was sweet and tart, but the boba was a different story. It was so weird I still don't exactly know what to think. The boba were tiny, basically dip n dots size, or slightly bigger, which is much smaller than your average tapioca boba. I was fine with the weird size difference, but the textures were so inconsistent- some of the boba were soft and chewy like they should be, but others were so hard I spit some of them out. (not like a spit take, more of a dribble and throw them outside lol) So yeah not really sure what was up with those. I'm not sure if that's how they always are or if I just suffered a spoofed boba. Hopefully it's the latter.

Delicious boba tea and the best popcorn chicken around! We're here for the second time in a week!

Best of Omaha?! For those that voted, all I can say is that I don't think you get out very often. I always try to give a restaurant a second chance after a 'bumpy' first impression. The restaurant is located in the building formally Julio's Mexican restaurant. First impression was that the restaurant was adequately clean, and seem to do a fairly brisk business. The individual that helped me was respectful did a nice job and put together my poke bowl as requested. The restaurant does offer several sauces that I haven't seen in other area poke restaurants. Presentation in the bowl was somewhat sloppy in that everything was just piled on top of each other unlike experiences at other locations where the food is distincly laud out in the bowl for a nice visual. The prices are fairly standard although there seem to be a lot of extra costs and smaller portions seen compared to other area poke restaurants. Overall, a fair experience and pretty tasty poke. This location does not offer any soft drinks.We returned again this week to try some alternative poke ingredients and had the same experience with portion size, presentation, and pricing. The one thing of significant concern was when the server dropped the raw fish on the counter they used the food scoop to push it back into the bin and then used a dirty towel from another counter to wipe up the surface. Leaves me questioning the sanitation of the restaurant and will probably prevent me from going back here again.Better training may help to address the issues cited however until then this is definitely not the best of Omaha.

Poke Boba House's tucked away location is easy to miss but definitely worth the stop. Their wide array of ingredients fosters the perfect environment for creativity and a happy belly. At the time of my first visit to this cute little shop, I had never tried poke before. The employee there was so patient as she offered me very helpful suggestions, and wow, I'm so glad I took them! The ingredients came together beautifully and created the perfect meal. The servings are large too - I was only able to eat half and packed the rest for later!While the food was delicious, I was less impressed with their boba. The drink itself was not the best, and the boba consistency seemed a bit off. I'd likely not go back for their boba, but I definitely will be making a return for the poke.

Boba drinks feature flavorful tea but not the best boba quality. Poke bowls offer plenty of toppings but they are very light on the protein. I felt like my bowl was mostly rice and toppings rather than fish. Location is downtown with meter parking. Space is very cute and cozy with a lovely egg chair to swing on. The shops has many table games available for groups to play. Small patio space outside. Overall, for the price, I would expect better quality/quantity. It is a an ok spot for poke and boba in Omaha, but I do feel there are some better options in town!

Has a cute entrance with some steps, outdoor seating, and welcoming interior. Went on a Thursday night at 8pm, an hour before closing, so there was no music playing and the chairs inside were already flipped up. I got a medium Brown Sugar Milk Tea with boba and custard & my bf got a medium Mango Yakult Slush. Most boba shops have ice level and sweetness level options, but it seems that isn't the case in Omaha. I love getting sugary milk teas but prefer them at 30% sweetness, so I was surprised at how much I liked our drinks!Brown Sugar Milk Tea + Boba + Custard- loved how they cooked the tapioca balls! perfect amount of softness and chewiness, just how I like it- surprisingly not overwhelmingly sweet considering it's literally brown sugar- the custard made each sip taste richer overtime, it just kept getting betterMango Yakult Slush- somewhat refreshing- not too sweet - smooth to sip on, not too icey- good option for those that aren't boba fans (like my bf)Overall: would def come back next time I visit Omaha! Probably when it's warmer to enjoy their outdoor patio and people watch ;)

Sushi in a bowl?!? Yes please. The Omaha Bowl (minus jalapeño add edamame) is so good. Perfect blend of sweet and spicy. The bowl is made fresh, right in front of you. Quality ingredients and great flavor. Staff is always friendly too, they help make suggestions when you don't know which item to try. LOVE their boba tea drinks, and the fresh fruit ones.
