I usually build my own poke bowl depending on my mood that day, but the ahi poke is always a must. Honestly, it's the closest in freshness and flavor to Hawaii that I've found on the mainland. Lots of toppings, sauces, and sprinkles to choose from, and the prices are very reasonable for the amount and quality you get. Definitely coming back every time I'm in town.

BUILD YOUR OWN BOWL (REGULAR) - 10 (12 on Uber Eats) +6 for 2x salmon +6 for 2x ahi tuna +1.50 for avocado I made my bowl with half sushi rice/half mixed greens, green onion, edamame, seaweed salad, furikake, masago, and sesame seeds. However, there were practically no masago in my bowl. I wanted to try a few sauces that sounded interesting, so I requested for the abunai, kabayaki, and garlic aioli sauce but specifically asked for it ON THE SIDE so the entire bowl wouldn't be overly saucy or soggy. Upon receiving, I saw that all the sauce was smothered in my bowl. I also got no utensils even though I requested some. At the end, I left half of the rice and mixed greens because it had way too much sauce which was incredibly overpowering. The quality of fish was fine, and I enjoyed it with the avocado. Meh. I think my experience would have been a lot more positive if the sauce was on the side for sure.

My husband and I both built our own poke bowls. Loved the options offered, and I loved my salad bowl. On the downside, although we both ordered the large size with double protein, it was a light meal (albeit delicious). Service wasn't great- we didn't get a text that our food was done and the employee didn't call out that our order was ready. After a 20 minute wait we asked if our order would be ready soon and it had been sitting on the back counter with the to go orders.

Only reason for 4 stars is because the spicy mayo sauce was far too mayo-ey for me. Just more mayo tasting than any other spicy mayo I've had.

I opted to get all the toppings and it created such a great and varied texture and flavor for each bite. Crispy onions are a must in BYOB poke spots, it adds a great flavor when you're making your own bowl. I would recommend asking if you can mix certain sauces to your preference. I found the volcano sauce to be just a creamy sauce that kind of disappears in the bowl, something on the soy-acidic side might stand out better. The staff are incredible and patient with your selection. For the area, this is some of the best value you can get.

I choose two proteins: marinated tuna and marinated cooked shrimp. I recommend both, but especially the marinated tuna. I also highly recommend the seaweed salad for one of your toppings.

I ordered a strawberry shake with creme brulee in it. Very delicious! Small area for seating but they have a few tables.

I was excited to go here after a soccer game brought us to the area, but no score here sadly (pun…read moreintended). The place is a cute casual decor. My make your own bowl was okay. I had salmon, edamame, corn, cucumber salad, ginger and eel sauce. It had a little too much ginger but that is easy to fix. A step below my usual bowls for a couple dollars more. Husband ordered the Koji chicken bowl and it was surprisingly small. It seemed like a weak version of a chicken teriyaki bowl. Daughter ordered the kare-kare brisket bowl and it was terrible. We really should have said something or tried to switch it out because she basically picked at it and left hungry. The brisket was dry and tough and it has something else that was like mush. They also charge a 3% credit card fee, which I get is becoming more standard. Overall, it was probably a 2 star visit for us, but I think it is likely better than that most times.

Stopped by to redeem some points I had; ordered ahead a BYO Poke Bowl. Overall, the food quality…read morewas solid; the carrots and mixed greens crisp enough, the pickled daikon and seaweeds salad tangy and well-brined, and the Fat Fish medley (tuna, salmon and whitefish) all fresh and tender as far as I could tell. Only critique was the price. At $20, I'm not sure I could stomach that if not for the rewards I was redeeming. I won't dock them a star because this is probably not their fault; JBG Smith is a known miser as far as landlords go, plus quality inputs cost more, so I'd leave that as more an observation for management to consider than a demerit. No commentary on the service as it was a simple pickup; the ambiance belongs to the Water Park, which is pleasant but more of the general setting.

I got the Fat Fish poke because it also contained white fish, which is something I'd never seen at poke restaurants before.
