Poké it Up

Very very rude employees, lady looked at me stupid when I told her I needed a water cup with a lid because I was taking it to go and about to head to the airport. The places is trendy and cute inside. Food tasted fine. That's the only reason I gave it 5 stars, considering I went 20 mins out of my way to go to this place I will not return again.

Solid poke place in Ballston.This is as standard as your poke bowl experience can get. You work your way down the line specifying how you want your bowl built, and pay accordingly. The fish tasted good and all the toppings were done well.

My coworker and I came here for lunch since it was fairly close by. I've had a lot of poke before, and this place was disappointing. I made my own bowl and picked my base, protein, toppings, and sauces.The portions were small, and nothing really had much flavour. They barely put any sauce which didn't help at all either. Neither of us finished our bowls. Even though there wasn't a line, we felt rushed to order. We both got a caramel bubble tea, which just tasted like bitter chocolate milk. My coworker tried getting an exchange or refund after taking a sip and was told they don't do that... The restaurant itself looks like it's half finished because of the layout. I also don't believe they had the AC turned on. For the price we paid, I would not recommend this place.

This place absolutely took care of my craving for poké!!! Coming from living in California for a few years, I have pretty high standards for poké, and I loved the quality and portion size here.The ambiance was cute and clean - however, a lot of people walked in and took their food to go and were picking up to-go orders, so I wonder if that's more common here. Tbh that's probably what I'll do. Gluten free peeps - you will absolutely love this place and feel safe here because they label everything (every food item as well as each sauce). Can't wait to return to get my poké fix!

Service was quick and the food was good. Fish was fresh and so was the seaweed salad!

Stopped by to check out Poke it Up since I was craving for a Poke Bowl. It's pretty straight forward where you select the size of the bowl you want with the number of toppings and type of fish. It's not unlimited toppings, so you have to choose your 7 toppings wisely to add to your bowl, and which sauce to drizzle it with.I ordered mine with sushi rice with spicy tuna and salmon as my 2 fish choices, and spicy aioli as my sauce. Overall, it tasted delicious, and I would come back for more!

My experience with poke it up has been nothing but positive! I generally get their large custom bowl (a bit pricey but worth it once in awhile). Squid salad is just ok, would rather get more fish protein in my bowl. Their boba's are also pretty good but they did mix mine up last delivery and gave me something else. Nonetheless, still tasty. I've primarily used Uber eats but it's taken literally less than 10 minutes for them to make my order AND deliver it. Super impressed with them and will continue to order from them.

Good tuna bowl and healthy serving of fish. The rice bowl I got was a bit heavy on the rice side. Greens are crispy and refreshing, and service is quick. It's good for a quick grab and go lunch near work.

I love Poké it Up! We both got the build your own bowls and the options they have here are amazing. Prior to the eating here, I had been to a couple Poké restaurants, but being vegetarian I felt like none of them truly hit the spot for me and felt they were lacking with the toppings. Here there are so many vegetarian toppings and the sauces are absolutely amazing. Each bite was so delicious and I'm glad this is right here in a central area in Arlington. I also got their strawberry bubble tea which did not disappoint. It's a pretty casual restaurant so you can just go in and order. I highly recommend!

My bowl was good, however there are other options in the area that have larger portion sizes and better fish quality for the price. We had the tuna bowls and did the Uber pick up. Food was made quickly upon putting in the order.
