Stopped by for dinner before a game at Mullet Arena. I order my 2 scoop (spicy tuna and tuna lava) creation and a miso soup. Bowl is always good, but the miso soup was only ok, definitely lacking in flavor/seasoning. The folks that attended to us were friendly and the place is very clean. The area shares parking with several dining establishments so parking can be minimal to none.
Portions are great. 2 scoop or 3 scoop is super filling! Even a kids bowl is a ton of food. I got shrimp and octopus as my protein and I love that they offer kelp noodles as a base. Some of the crew will HOOK IT UP! But I will say there are some stingy team members who don't load it up as much. Overall a super clean place with plenty of seating. Parking is a nightmare during peak hours, but it's worth it!
I've came several times since my last review and the employees have been much kinder since then and it still has the same amazing quality ingredients and clean inside. So I will still continue to come here every month:)
My half rice, half greens, double salmon poke was pretty great!! Nice selection of sauces and toppings.
Poke here is always good :) They have fresh selection of fish, veggie, and sauce. What I like about this place is that they give generous amount of food, and have yellowtail! Although it's a dollar extra, I usually get it cuz it's so yum. Oh and I always ask for wasabi and sriracha, wasabi goes well with fish, and I mix sriracha with crab salad to make it spicy creamy salad. I already want poke again :'(
fresh & was good & super filling. I got the two scoops bowl with salmon and spicy tuna. Helpful staff, chill place, I did notice that some of the tables looked like they could've been wiped off a bit better tho.
This was my first Poke Bowl and I found out tonight that Ahi Poke was the first Poke Restaurant in AZ. I had shrimp, avocado, pickled radish, seaweed, sesame seeds and fried onion on top of the salad with a citrus dressing. Really delicious and fresh. I'm not much of an adventurous eater...I wanted to try the salmon but opted for the spicy shrimp instead. Everything was very fresh and the staff was friendly. I'm on a particularly restrictive diet called a lectin-free diet and this was a great place to go to get a tasty meal that was compliant. It's good to know there's somewhere I can go to get fresh food without having to eliminate a whole bunch of things on pre-fixed menu options.
On my back from a short errand and stopped by here to get lunch. Customer service was okay. Employees were not as informed or friendly as one would expect. Felt a bit like pulling teeth to get recommendations or insights on what is good. Portions were fair and it tasted good. Got tuna, salmon, and octopus Did have a slight tummy ache after
I found it very strange that they don't have any "pre built" bowls on their menu. Their only two options are BYO bowls with either 2 scoops of protein or 3. My bowl had white rice, spicy tuna, salmon, spicy creamy sauce, cucumber, green onions, seaweed salad, avocado, crispy onions, & crabmeat. My bowl came with a fork instead of chopsticks and it came in two separate containers. One for the fish and the other for the rice & veggies. Both bowls were pretty small so it was a little difficult to mix everything together. Everything seemed fresh and tasted pretty good. The spicy tuna and spicy creamy sauce weren't very spicy but they tasted good. There was a good balance of rice to fish and veggies. Overall I really enjoyed my Poke bowl and I'd probably come back if I ever had a chance.
Exact same comment as the user Emma posted 3 months ago. Blonde employee is the rudest individual I've ever encountered at an ahi poke chain. Seriously how does someone like this get through the hiring process? Extremely bossy, controlling, and aggressive about you ordering. There was literally nobody else in the location except me and she kept telling me that I shouldn't look at the menu because they might have it. This might be shocking to her, but people look at the menu for other things than what's in stock (names of items, combo possibilities, I dunno maybe the drink menu). Seriously if you walk in and see the blonde hair you should just walk out. If I wanted to be bossed around when trying to pick my food I'd call my mother. Absolutely infuriating. Jesus H. Food was great. Customer service brings it down to 1 star. Would be 0 because I'll never step foot in this location again.

Hey guys this is my first time trying this spot and I loved it! Stopped the other day after work and got some good poki! I got the 3 scoop with white rice, octopus, shrimp and Mac salad. I got 2 spam misubi too. Topped with some spicy mayo, and I can't remeber the other 2 sauces. Got Ginger chives crispy onions cucumber. The guy helping me was very nice and the inside ant to bad either it has nice decor and lighting too.. stop by and try it out! I recommend read more

The food is always great! But ever since the one tall blond guy left, I don't think I'll be going twice a week anymore. The new hires, two girls, while they are kind, they are extremely light handed and it's now not worth money to have a poke bowl anymore...sad because I've been recommending this place sooo much and now I'm going to stop. I hope you can re teach your employees on size...because I got half a scoop of protein for each "scoop" and pinches of "toppings" I don't know what she was thinking but since this experience I'll be finding a new poke bowl spot and I'm sad about that...I added a photo of before I ate....it was fully mixed up and I was surprised it was soooo small.... I'm giving two stars, one for great food and two for a great location and atmosphere. read more
This is one of my favorite poke spots! I really enjoy the food here, as it's the closest I've found to authentic Hawaiian poke, with traditional flavors like limu that you don't see everywhere.The portions are good for the price, and even the smallest bowl is surprisingly filling. Service can be hit or miss depending on who's working, but overall the experience is positive. The space is clean, well maintained, and has a relaxed vibe with modern music playing, which makes it an enjoyable place to stop in. read more

I wasn't overly impressed with my bowl at Ahipoki this time. The avocado and then scallops didn't taste very fresh. However, the employee that helped me was very nice and there was no line so I was in and out of there very quickly. I enjoy their options of sauces and the crab is very yummy. read more

Are you sure you have the right restaurant? Our ASU store rarely has…
Whoa! Delicious! Ordered a organic salad, 2 tuna, luau tuna and alll the mix-ins! Service was fast, friendly and the ambiance is the same. Even though the valley is saturated in Poke places, we always compare them to Ahipoki! My food is fresh, cold and delicious, I tried a new mix-in sauce as a recommendation and whoa! I've been missing out on the house spicy. Random thought? I'm usually really picky about smells, when you walk into Ahipoki it smells like rice, not fish. It speaks volumes on the cleanliness of the restaurant, the food is phenomenal but for everything else to maintain the awesomeness means they are putting in hard work, it doesn't go in noticed, that's for sure! read more

The fact that I have to leave this review adds another layer of disappointment. One the bowls was packed in the bag on its side so ALL of the sauce dripped at the bottom of the bag.Not only was the bag a MESS!!! The tofu was frozen! I asked for two scoops and this is what I got. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!!! read more

When ordering the employee clearly couldn't have cared less. I felt rushed and a bothersome that I was placing an order. I asked for a little bit of the sweet citrus sauce on the rice and greens base that I ordered. What I got was a base that was drenched in sauce and was soupy at the bottom. The choice of toppings and veggies was lackluster and the employee put very small amounts of everything including the cheap ones such as the edamame. For the price I would have to recommend looking elsewhere. read more
Another Ahipoki bowl, this time in Tempe! The tuna and salmon salad I had was good, although I did get a not-so-fresh yellow piece of wilted greens in my salad. The fish was fresh as were the toppings, and the soy mirin sauce went well with everything in my bowl. Service was fast and friendly and there were plenty of seats to choose from once we had finished paying. read more
Who needs burrito bowls when you can have poke bowls? I think I eat enough fish for my body to be recognized as a thermometer. That mercury life! I wish this place existed back when I was a wee lil Sun Devil at ASU. I remember back when I was a student, Pizza Hut bread sticks from the Memorial Union was the coolest thing you can get on campus and surrounding dining consisted of either a damn good burger at The Chuckbox or the worst Thai food ever from Charlie's. You Sun Devils got it SO good these days. At least parking in Lot 59 was only $75 when I went so suck it. Now, to start: HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, AHIPOKI! I'm writing this review for their third restaurant on the first year anniversary of their first location. Woo! I frequent the Chandler location the most but I can say that no matter which location you pop into, quality and quantity is consistent. One big bonus about this ASU location is that they're open later. Parking can be a little aggravating and the traffic in the area is something straight out of a nightmare but if you want clean eats that's both good and good for you, stop into Ahipoki! The regular half-and-half is always more than enough for me and you gotta wash it down with the Tropical drink. It might give you diabetes but it's so good. One thing that Ahipoki does that the competitors don't do is mix the salad and fish with the sauce. I hate eating my rabbit food without sauce. So yes, slather it on, Ahipoki! #SauceBauce I'm a fan for life! read more

Chipotle but Poke! I love the concept of Ahipoki Bowl. Pick a base (white rice, brown rice, salad, etc), seafood (Ahi, spicy tuna, scallops, etc), add some sides (avocado, cucumber salad, crab salad, etc) and a sauce (I always got the spicy house). For $9, you receive 2 scoops of seafood in a bowl filled with healthy goodness. To counteract the healthiness, ice cream filled macaroons are offered for dessert. Get the coffee flavored one. You're welcome. If poke is your thing, give Ahipoki bowl a try! read more

Definitely one of the largest portion sizes I've ever gotten for a poke bowl. I got the half and half with salad and rice and they put it in a bento box with so much food??? And it was so cheap?? Wow I was pretty amazed because I'm used to small bowls. Fish quality and sides were great, but rice quality wasn't the best. However, would recommend for those who are super hungry and need a filling meal. read more
Strolling by ASU with my teen daughter and knowing how much she loves sushi, we ran into this place thanks to the Yelp app! The name in itself seemed intriguing to want to know more about! This would be my first time trying out a "poki bowl", and to think they now have an establishment that solely focuses on making your own "poki bowl". Easy to read and make you own bowl menu. Love how you can add as many toppings as you like. I went with the brown rice, garlic flavored tuna/octopus, topped with dried onions flakes and chopped green onions. Being that this was my first experience with a "poki bowl", very good impression! Very delicious and fresh flavors of the tuna and octopus! The rice was nice and fluffy and overall awesome experience! If ever by the ASU campus off of Rural and north of Lemon Street, this is a must check out place! read more
Location is nice if you live or go to school at ASU, otherwise it is a bit of a pain to get to with traffic. Location itself is super sleek and clean. Big space with plenty of seating to chose from. However, it goes down hill from there. I got the half greens and half brown rice. They set the greens off separately to mix, which is nice. I got 3 scoops with the large , which was nice, and all the normal options were there (salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, scallops, etc). Next was the sauce, and this is where things went down. I asked the employee which one he recommended between the two spicy. He said mix both, so I went with it. He added the sauce and mixed them (albeit not well since the fish all ended up on the bottom). Next were the toppings. I went with a good variety, but the first thing I noticed was how haphazard they threw it in my plate. One of the things I like the most about these bowls is how meticulous they are. Each is a work of art, slowly crafted to satiate. There was a lot behind me, but only a few people, and all I wanted was a few extra seconds to be sure my cucumbers were not strewn about. I go to check out, and the price was comparable to most other places. They didn't offer me any of the macaroons when I checked out, and I didn't even notice they were there until after. I sit down to eat, and the sauce was just overpowering everything. The sesame seeds tasted odd, the brown rice was a bit hard, and the overall presentation was not up to snuff. The leftover oil was just too much to bare looking at my empty plate. The fish, when not drenched in sauce, was of good quality. And honestly that saved this review. Knowing me, I'll head back again one day, ask for super easy sauce, only greens, and see if it is any better. read more
I love this place! Ever since I was a student at ASU to now, a working professional. I splurged with my sister and we loved our dinners. I got the large plate ($11.50 - comes with 3 scoops of seafood) with half organic salad and half brown rice. For my seafood, I got the Tuna Luau, Yellowtail (extra $1), and Salmon with the sweet citrus sauce. My sister got the same thing except had 2 scoops of salmon instead of the yellowtail. I also ordered a Thai tea ($2.99) and at the end, went back for a green tea macaron ice cream sandwich ($2.50). I don't recall the exact prices of the drink and dessert but I think it was around these. The brown rice was fluffy and cooked to perfection. The tuna luau doesn't get mixed in with the sauce you select but the other fishes/shrimp/etc. do. The sweet cirrus tasted wonderful with the fish and salad. It mimicked a sweet lemon vinaigrette. The fish was very tender and their flavors were enhanced with the sauce. I loved every bite. You can choose your toppings, I chose all of them. My favorites are the crab salad, seaweed salad, edamame, and seaweed topping. Overall, I'd come back here if I have the financial flexibility to spend a good amount. The portions were big and it was filling! It was also a better eating option than a fast food place. The customer service was phenomenal and the guys that helped me were Eric and Buddha, but the whole staff were very friendly and recommended certain choices for if I was feeling a certain thing. I really appreciated their expertise and their wonderful customer service. read more

The review was originally left under Scottsdale but it was meant for the Tempe location. This place is delicious! My first time was about 3 weeks ago, and let me just say I have been returning each week since. The food is very fresh, and have several different ways to mix and match. When I say mix and match I mean different sauces, different veggies, and different proteins. Also the best part is if you're going in during your lunch time expect to be there a few minutes because it is super quick to get your food even faster than fast food restaurants but healthy ;). It is affordable and if you want to add avocado it's only $1 more what a steal and they give a good amount of it! (I'm an avocado lover so for me to have left over is a good thing lol) I've only gone to the tempe location, but I'm sure it will be the same satisfaction at all locations! read more
