California POKĒ BOWL | Small (2 scoops of protein)

Came across this while searching for a high protein lunch! Very fresh and great flavor!!

The salmon and tuna combo Pokē Burger.

Friend and I had been here a couple months ago and really like the food. We had to return to try out the Pokē Burger which is only offered on Thursdays. Wow, amazing - and highly recommend. Service is friendly and upbeat.

Stopped by & grabbed a poke bowl for my eldest daughter. Tried the 2nd location I believe the 1st one is on East Plaza blvd in National city. She's ordered before alot from National city. This spot is North Park located on the south west corner of El Cajon Blvd & Kansas st in a little small strip mall across from jack in the box. Where Subway use to be for many years. Sits next to City Dragon Chinese restaurant. Parking is limited due to laundromat in same area. Inside was clean & quite & the service was good. The gentleman assisting with the order was very informative & explained the pokerito my friend was interested in. Ordered :Regular size Poke bowl with a mixed green base with ahi Tuna, salmon, and spicy tuna, avocado, cucumber, krab salad, white onions, Chipotle Mayo, cilantro lime, sesame oil, Seaweed flakes, Seaweed salad, cilantro and ginger. And she was pleased with the portions size for regular size bowl. And will only be able to eat a small amount She really likes the location & will look into going there again.

POKE BOWL Regular (3 scoops of protein)

I've been here a few times now and they are consistently great! You pick your base, protein, and toppings, so it's quick and very efficient. We both got the salmon, yellowtail, and tuna! If you choose yellowtail or add avocado or mango, those are extra charges, fyi. My hubby isn't a fan of poke, but enjoyed his bowl for the first time! I'm glad they have another location that's closer to us as well.

just went there and had elayna serve us , I'm not sure if that's how u spell her name :( but omg she was so great . Super nice and helpful On top of that the food is fireeee . 10/10

Ordered the sushi burger. The buns looked crispy but hard to bite into. Close to biting a rock. Also over hyped and over priced

I can't say enough good things about Dominic and Nate. From the moment we sat down, their service…read morewas next-level -- attentive without hovering, genuinely friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. You can tell when people actually care about the guest experience, and they absolutely do. Nate deserves a special shoutout for creating a Thai chili ginger soy sauce that genuinely blew my mind. I'm not exaggerating -- the balance of heat, sweetness, and umami was unreal. One of those flavors that makes you pause mid-bite and go, wow. It elevated everything it touched and is still living rent-free in my head. Dominic was equally incredible -- seamless service, great energy, and made the entire experience feel effortless and welcoming. Together, they made what could've been a normal meal into something truly memorable. If you're lucky enough to be taken care of by Dominic and Nate, you're in for an exceptional experience. This is the kind of service (and flavor) that keeps you coming back.

This was my first time trying this place and I came in with high expectations after doing my…read moreresearch. The restaurant itself looked clean, which was a good first impression. Unfortunately, the service completely ruined the experience. I placed my order online four hours in advance because I have a long drive back home to Julian and just wanted to pick it up and go. When I arrived, there was no greeting from staff, no clear pickup line, and no acknowledgment of customers waiting. The staff seemed to have tunnel vision, only focusing on what was directly in front of them while ignoring everyone else. After standing there for quite a while, I finally had to ask about my order. Instead of it being ready like it should have been, they hadn't even started making it. I ended up waiting over 30 minutes in line for something that was ordered hours earlier. What made it worse was when the mistake became obvious, no one apologized or acknowledged the inconvenience. The staff acted like it was no big deal and showed zero professionalism or accountability. I don't come into the city often, but when I do I like to try new places. Sadly, this experience was disappointing and the customer service was extremely poor. I would honestly say save your time and money and go somewhere that actually values their customers--especially in this economy. Time is money, and money is time. If a restaurant doesn't respect your time, they're definitely not going to respect your money. As for the food, it was very basic and lacked flavor. They were also very stingy with the sauce, which made the bowl even more dry and underwhelming. Overall, between the poor service, long wait despite ordering hours ahead, lack of accountability from staff, and mediocre food, this place was a big disappointment. I will not be coming back. There are plenty of better places that actually value their customers. Thank you and have a nice day.

My mom and I really loved the food here. We had the dozen oysters to start! They were fresh and…read moreslightly sweet The track taco was super yummy. This is their award winning taco! I enjoyed the big, juicy pieces of shrimp and the mango slaw on top. Would definitely get this one again! We also shared the fish and chips - beer battered cod. I liked how the breading wasn't thick and it remained crispy!! Also, it didn't feel heavy or too oily at all. The fish inside was moist. The coleslaw that came with it was good too and it was a little sweet. I didn't like the tartar sauce that much and honestly didn't feel like the fish needed it because it already had good flavor. Service was great! The person who took our order was very nice. Very casual place! Can't wait to come back and try other items

I arrived about 30 minutes before closing, and while I understand it was late, the service was…read morecompletely dismissive. There was still a significant line, but when we finally got to the front, the waitress taking our order wouldn't even look at us. She spent a good portion of our "turn" chatting with another waitress before finally turning to us--still with zero eye contact. We ordered a cioppino, a clam chowder in a sourdough bowl, fish and chips, and a dozen oysters. I noticed she shouted the soup orders back to the kitchen but didn't say a word about the fish and chips. When I specifically asked her if she got the fish and chips, she said "yes," took my card, and sent us to a table. Our soups and oysters arrived after 15 minutes, but another 30 minutes passed with no sign of the rest of the meal. When I followed up with the same waitress to check on the status, she looked at the order and flatly told me there were no fish and chips on there. By that point, the restaurant was already closing. She asked if I still wanted them, but after waiting that long and dealing with that level of indifference, I just said no. Extremely disappointing experience. If you're going to stay open for customers, you should at least provide basic communication and hospitality. I won't be coming back.

We…read morewaited, came back, and it was still the same table sitting empty, which was a bit confusing. That said, the waitress we had was very kind and attentive, and the food was decent, so we decided to give the place another try. After a long day at Legoland, we returned around 6pm and I had called ahead to make a reservation for four. The person on the phone took my name and number, so I assumed we were all set. When we arrived, the restaurant wasn't even full, but no one greeted us for several minutes. Eventually, a waiter came over, and when I mentioned our reservation, he seemed confused and said they don't take reservations for parties under six. I tried to explain that someone had taken my information over the phone, but he interrupted me multiple times and didn't let me finish. He then walked over to another group behind us and asked if they were there first, even though we had arrived before them, which was frustrating. We were eventually told there was space available at the bar seating (bar stools) instead of a table. At that point, we were tired and hungry, so we accepted. Unfortunately, the service didn't improve. The waiter seemed rushed and disorganized--he couldn't remember our order and had to ask us which dish belonged to who when the food came out. As for the food, it was okay but not memorable. My ramen was just average--the pork was dry and the egg was overcooked. Overall, the food is decent, but the service really needs improvement. This particular waiter clearly needs more training, or possibly a different role, as the level of service did not meet basic expectations for a restaurant. Our second visit left a bad impression, especially since it was our last night in San Diego. Sadly, we won't be coming back.
