"Been going here since my high school days in 2015! Now that I live out of state, I look forward to visiting this place whenever I get the chance. My boyfriend says this is the best poke place he's had in his life! The food quality has always been consistent and the fish is always so fresh. I also appreciate that the sauces are on the less salty side so that it doesn't overpower the freshness and quality of the fish. Shout out to the guy working who recognized us from the first time we came here after the airport! :-) service is amazing! He gave amazing recs."

"The Sushi is 10/10 in my opinion. I got the Gold Dragon Roll, Iron Monkey, Salmon Lover, and Super Crunchy. The service was ok. They need to work on people skills. The Ambiance is weird too because they just stare at you while you eat lol. The reason is because the place is tiny. My suggestion is just order to go."
"A poke bowl for lunch is perfect for a warm day and post pool party! I ordered the Small with 2 Scoops of rice which was plenty. The serving size is perfect. I added tuna, Wasabi, their signature sauce, kimchi, edamame, cilantro, green onions, fried onions, roe, seaweed and ginger. Strip mall.parking. Would come back!"
"Small for a lot of money and they charge extra for Masago. No small bowl option. Customer service is friendly and parking is ok. Poke tiki is 10 times better and less expensive. Second time here, will not come back."
"Great service and friendly staff. Food is fresh and tasty. The Hawaii island theme was nice to see. Recommendit as a local eatery. Right in the Walmart parking lot area."
"High quality tuna, great service, and fast.Highly recommend this place. Some nice spots to eat outside too."
"I tried this place for the first time last week and it was amazingI tried poke works and not as good."
"Great local spot for poke and sushi rolls. The poke bowls are a good deal, solid portion size, and very filling. I love all the toppings you can choose. Fish was fresh and tasty. We also ordered two rolls, and I liked the Ignite roll best. We ordered online for pick up and it was super easy. Located on the corner of Beach & Atlanta with plenty of parking in the lot. There's also Starbucks, Walmart, Mama's, and a bunch of other options in the shopping center."
"I went here after a trip to the doctor and they did not disappoint! I got a large bowl and they did not skimp on the protein! everything was fresh and made to order. The service was exceptional and they answered my questions on all of the drinks that they had available. I got a Thai tea with Boba and it was very good. I like the outdoor seating and the indoor seating was very nice too, but I decided to sit outdoors and enjoy the fresh air. definitely going to go back after another doctor's appointment."
"I go here all the time for a quick and cheap lunch! Cost: great prices! I feel like it's hard to find places in 2023 where the basic rolls are under $7.Portion sizes: small but still satisfying. The customizable Poke Bowls are a medium portion for $10 and all their rolls (that I've ordered so far) come with 8 pieces instead of 6. We order 3 rolls when we get takeout and can finish it in one sitting. I've had the Pokerrito before - not big enough to have leftovers but still satisfying.Service: I haven't dined in yet, but takeout is usually fast. I recommend ordering ahead on their website. It's a mom and pop shop so if there is a rush of people, then expect a wait. That being said, I've come in during regular lunch/dinner hours and I've never seen more than 5 parties in the restaurant at a time.Ambience: very casual, not super well lit, there are boxes everywhere. Quality: 7/10, but you get what you pay for. Sometimes the rolls fall apart. Unagi is good, shrimp tempura is soggy (takeout), salmon is decent. They forgot (?) the tuna in our Jessica roll and replaced it with more salmon, so I can't speak for the tuna quality .Bottom line: It's not the most extravagant place, but it really satisfies the craving for sushi/poke at an unbeatable price."
"Fresh, and excellent service! Great hidden gem tucked away for poke for to-go. Worth the trip!"

Holy sh** you guys. Writing this after literally only taking two bites. I'm blown away, the flavor is like sooo clean and fresh and vibrant and I think this just became my new Sunday spot. After the poke boom 10 years ago, it has been freakin hard to find a good bowl that wasn't stinky or frozen. I'm literally in awe. Don't ever change poke district. It did hurt at first paying $18 for a half/half bowl when I didn't know what I was getting myself into. I added avocado and got the lava sauce (top tier, just enough kick)But honestly, I'm obsessed and it's SO WORTH IT. Even the cucumbers were freakin delicious, I wish I got more! Currently contemplating taking home a fish only bowl to make the experience last longer. Freakin great job guys

It's a small shop, but the quality is consistently good - many other poke places have come and gone while this place has been a mainstay. Lots of choices of greens/rice/proteins, and the quality of the fish is better than most other poke places, and the service is always good. Parking is terrible, but that's pretty much anywhere, but if you're in the area and in the mood for poke I certainly recommend this stop. :)

Great spot to get your poke fix! They offer the usual choices for base and protein, squid salad being a nice option that not many other poke joints offer. Besides the common topping choices, they have mango salsa and pickled onions. I'm a fan of their cucumber, which is also slightly pickled and very refreshing. Other menu options include a variety of of sushi rolls and they've recent added ramen and musubi to the line up.Service is usually quick, efficient, and friendly. If you also use the Clover App, be sure to check in and let them know at the register so that you can earn point towards a free bowl. The restaurant is always clean and is done in an industrial-hipster-casual vibe. Overall a solid place that is reasonably priced with food that hits the spot.

I was previously coming back from the dentistry and I had seen this place a couple times but never had the courage to come visit it. I had seen my brother eat poke before but I had personally never tried it before. So, eventually, I just ordered some take out and when I was finished with my dentistry appointment, I made my way on over. The space was pretty quiet, and nothing too bad. I thought I'd have to wait a little longer for my order but turns out they finished 2-3 minutes earlier than what I was told on my order status (yay!). I came in and asked about my order and the person working at the front was kind enough to hand it to me and wish me off on a good day. I went home and eventually had to fight open the lid a little but it was more preferable than having it be attached loosely/lazily. I opened my poke bowl, mixed it up in the assumption that that was supposed to be what I do and took a bite. I was practically folding from how good it tasted, I think it was quite possibly the best first experience I could've ever had eating poke, and now a couple days after I'm still craving for the same order. I wasn't sure if it was missing a couple things in my order but, my list of items were pretty long and it didn't bother me all that much. It was still very good, service was nice and simple, over all a pretty decent first experience. Would come again

You can never go wrong by choosing salmon. The salmon was cut into large, generously sized pieces and so fresh. That's the only type of protein I added because I'm a huge salmon lover but you can choose to go crazy with the other options.Even if you're not a huge poké lover, they have Hawaiian classics like spam musubi and California rolls. We ordered the tuna roll but they were out of tuna so they subbed it for salmon which I was happy about. They have a lot of deals for small bites depending on the day of the week so I'd take advantage of that depending on when you visit.Poke Island is such a cute, small mom-and-pop shop tucked in a busy plaza that's worth supporting.

One of the best Pokes I've had around here, it's a good choice for a quick lunch during work day. Fresh enough that I've never had issues after eating here, even during hot summer, that's all you need to know haha.

I went with my friend for lunch here and really love their poke bowls. We tried out different toppings and in love with most of it! Really fresh ingredients and great sauces.

"This is my favorite Poke spot right by my house! They serve up generous portions of fresh seafood and delicious toppings. I recommend ordering ahead for a quick and easy pick-up. They always seem to be busy, and it's easy to understand why! Plus, their boba drinks are super yummy too!"
"My favorite Anaheim local poke shop. There are simply none that can compete with the flavors that poke wave provides. Only small annoyance is I personally wish their spicy sauce was spicier. I appreciate that they provide a warm miso soup with every purchase. I can't eat large portions so the smaller size is great for me - especially because no one likes to save poke bowl leftovers ;) the hosts that run them are so kind. come here and try out their bowls! You'll be coming back again for sure."
"Great little spot for fresh Sushi yummyTry the Newport roll with no rice- Spicy fire crunch and don't forget to get a crazy monkey"
"Used to come here when I lived in FHR. Now I come during my lunch break. The owner is a Korean lady and she is very nice. She always greets me when I go and the employees are also nice and kind. Their ingredients are fresh and I like that they have a lot of options to choose from! Now I got my coworkers ordering from here as well."
"We have been coming to Poki Poki HB for a long time now and it's by far our most favorite! Very fresh and delicious!!!"
"I was stuck next door at Milan Hair Salon... with heavy aluminum foils in my hair ... starving. I called Poki Poki and spoke with Sunny who took my order via text and had the food delivered to the salon within 10minutes. I gave them a $5 tip for the quick service. I got 3 onigiris... spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and crab! They were all delicious! I would come back to order them again even if I'm not in the area for my hair care. Thanks so much Sunny!"
"This review is solely for the ramen. It is worth it if you got a coupon for a discount in the mail. However, I knew was just from the location of this place that the ramen would not be that great. It is not bad for warm noodle soup in RSM if you're craving that comfort food, but don't expect Japanese quality ramen here like you could get if you drive to Irvine."
"Came here and was immediately greeted by the workers. I appreciated the fact that they were so patient with me. (I'm a super indecisive person, so sometimes it takes me a while to decide what I'm in the mood for.) The spot has already premade bowls or you can build your own. I opted to build my own but I was super tempted to try their lobster bowl. I was very surprised to see that noodles was an option for one of the bases. A lot of places don't give you the option. I still went with my half rice and half salad base I get everywhere though! The worker was super nice in giving me recommendations for what suace to use. I liked that the fish quality wasn't maskes by the sauces too! Would definitely recommend coming here if you're in the area."
"16.50 3 scoop poki bowl. Most toppings are included like Krab, only avocado is extra.We've been here a couple times and have been happy with the service and freshness. The 3 scoop bowl seems bigger to me than other places. I usually get half white rice/half salad for the base. The scoops of fish seemed pretty good. I like that the Krab and seaweed salad are included in the price. Only avocado is extra. Also they have eel sauce which I like to have drizzled on the top at the end."
"Great poki spot located in the corner of this shopping plaza. Easy to find, easy to order and friendly young man that assisted us on our visit over the weekend. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. It's a very clean restaurant. They have a new unagi bowl and they even have spam/egg musubis. Good variety of beverages as well. Even Clearly Canadian. I haven't had one of those in years! No fountain drinks, and water is self serve. Prices are reasonable and i definitely would recommend."
"We had dinner here on Wednesday. Tons of parking in a shopping center. Quite a bit of seating inside the restaurant. The service was wonderful and they did an amazing job explaining everything.They have a lot of tea and boba drink options. We ended up with a mango black tea with lychee jelly and a black tea with lychee jelly. Both were large, delicious and refreshing.Now for the main event! We got several poke bowls. They have several options to choose from. You can build your own bowl or choose from one of the set menu items. We got a set unagi bowl. The set options only come in medium size. There was a lot of unagi in the bowl. It also came with quite a ln assortment of vegetables as well. The unagi was fatty and delicious. We also got a set beef bowl. Lots of tasty beef on a bed of rice and a good mix of vegetables. We also builbuilt a bowl. I got a large and that comes with 3 scoops of protein. I choose tuna. Salmon and albacore. I had it placed on a mix bed of white rice and mixed salad. Then went to town by having them add just about every option they had from vegetables to the various sauces. All of the bowls were delicious.We also got a couple of macaron Gelato sandwiches. We got a Thai tea and rose water. Both were great and a great way to end the meal.Large portions and friendly service make this a place ai can't wait to get back to."
"Poke Tiki is convienantly located in Rsm near the lake. I am literally in this plaza about 2-3 times a week! So I am ecstatic that there is now a Poke place!They use all the CDC health and precautions. The Place is very clean and I recieved a really nice welcome greeting upon entering.I ordered a Small and Medium bowl. Good portion of rice as base and decent amounts of toppings given upon order. The bowls tasted fresh and delicious! They offer a great selection of sauces and you can choose the sauces on the side as well. I am curious about the drinks and they do offer boba, so next time I will definitely have to try!Overall great local business that I look forward to visiting again and again!"
"Located inside a Tustin Food Hall. Indoor/Outdoor seating. There are also ping pong tables outside and a bar inside so definitely a cool and fun place to hang out with friends.Tried the Garlic Chicken Plate and Poke Bowl (Spicy Tuna) lunch special. I appreciated that they let me substitute the rice and mac salad for all vegetables. Food was pretty good. My only issue was that there was too much sauce on the garlic chicken.Free 90 minute parking but I believe restaurants will validate if you stay over."
"This location is spotless, and the staff are friendly! The ingredients are well stocked, and everything looks so fresh! Sweetfin is not your ordinary poke spot. They have so many more options. Black rice, different vegetables, fruits, wasabi toppings (the Wasabi furikake was a lil overpowering), yuzu sauce, white TRUFFLE OIL, nuts, mushrooms...innovated sauces..(The black truffle gochujang sounds good).PLANT BASED options available!! Miso mishroom/eggplant, chili shitake tofu, and ponzu lime sweet potato. I don't think I choose the right sauces, it didn't taste as I expected but I'll definitely come back to try the different creation."
"This is probably one of the BEST poke places ever! I've never been to the other locations but I am so glad it is only a few minutes away from me! There is plenty of parking and it is in the same plaza as cream pan...just on the opposite side of it and in a corner .Services is too notch! I've been here twice already late at night and it is pretty empty. I chose the 2 protein and it comes with 6 sides and unlimited toppings. Usually avocado is always extra but i love that it is included in here! I usually will get salmon as my protein . They mixed it with all the sauces i wanted which was the uroko sauce, sesame oil, chili oil and spicy Mayo. Love the fried onion toppings and tempura! It totally makes it BOMB! As of now, you can check in on Yelp to claim a free miso soup with a purchase of a bowl. This is my GO TO spot for poke bowls!"
"Food was fresh and delicious, with a great variety of toppings and sauces to choose from. The portions were generous, and everything tasted incredibly fresh. The place itself was clean and well-maintained. The plaza has a lot of outdoor seating as well. It's shaded and quiet so it was very great sitting outside with my pup. Staff was very friendly and efficient as well It's a fantastic new addition to the plaza, and I can see myself becoming a regular. If you're looking for a tasty and healthy meal option, definitely give this place a try!"
"New poke restaurant in Lake Forest! We stumbled across this restaurant as we were driving through the parking lot looking for a place to eat. Clean, casual, build-your-own poke bowls offering small, medium and large sizes. My partner and I both ordered medium size bowls with 3 proteins at $15.99. Mine had salad mix; salmon/scallops/octopus with all the sides (except avocado +$1) on top. I opted for Spicy mayo dressing. Partner had white rice; spicy tuna/salmon/shrimp; all toppings with Volcano#2 sauce. Yum! In addition, the owner and workers were all very nice and offered great service."
"Came back for the good sushi and this time they did not have a wait! The carpaccio sushi was good and my favorite is the Alaskan roll. I don't know if it was the food or the music but it got me vibing."
"Great poke spot! Lots of room to sit down, very different than most poke spots. They filled my bowl to the top! I got the medium but I should have opted for the small one bc I couldn't finish it all. All the toppings and fish were very fresh and there was no skimping out on any of it. My daughter loved her salmon poke bowl and like the tempura crunchies on top. This is a great spot for a group outing or even just a nice spot to sit down and enjoy some poke."
"Inside has a good amount of seats. Came for dinner and there wasn't anyone here. So no line. That was convenient. So I was happy.I've tried a lot of poke spots. But this one was unique. They had Maui tuna which was unique from what I've seen. Most seafood isn't mixed with anything. They also have hot Cheetos for toppings. I was so happy. I love hot Cheetos. I had to add that topping. It made my poke taste waaaay better! So I was happy to try this place out. When you wrote a review for the first time they give you half off your bowl and when you check in a free drink. So not a bad deal. I'll definitely come back when I want poke in Irvine."
