Very good poke. The girl who helped me was very helpful with any questions I had. She even got me sushi rice instead of regular white rice which is great. The sushi rice doesn't have too much vinegar in it but just enough. If you don't like too much heat in your poke be careful on some of the sauces you use. Make sure you try them before you add it to your bowl. read more

I started coming here 6 months ago because of the value for a 5 scoop poke bowl, hearty servings and the fact that avocado wasn't extra. I don't know if it's the times/days I'm coming, but lately the staff seems new, poorly trained and/or distracted. Multiple times there were key ingredients missing and they are so stingy with the portions. It makes me wonder if the management is different? When I was served the employees touched their masks while preparing grub hub orders and one came out from the back with their mask completely down. They apologized and wore it correctly. My most recent trip, the guy working was by himself and super stressed out because of the line forming. I normally don't post negative reviews but literally the past 5 visits have been poor and it's frustrating. I Hope they can get back to the better service and caution. read more

Went at 7:30 and they locked the door. What is up with that? They did let me in to get a dole whip but they said they were closed. The hours here state 8pm read more

Good. But why does the place smell bad, not fishy but needs air quality improvement. Can you smell it????

I'm so glad that I gave Oke Poke another chance! My bowl was very good and fresh. This is definitely my new favorite poke spot for when I'm in the area. read more

Like this spot a lot, the prices aren't terrible, the service is solid and they give you a lot. Alyssa is very helpful and accommodating. She is so darn sweet and absolutely gorgeous to the point it's painful, shes absolutely stunning, a very pretty girl with nice full lips!! Nonetheless, they have a freestyle machine which is a HUGE PLUS!!!! I recommend the oke sauce mixed with the spicy mayo or crunchy garlic sauce. Have been back a few times, my friend and I will be regulars here now. read more

I love this restaurant. The fish is fresh, the sauces abundant, and the employees friendly. I come here for lunch about three times per week. I really appreciate that the employees are helpful and creative in recommending sauce combinations. I usually stay a few minutes after paying simply because I'm chatting with the friend folks who work there. Great experiences! read more

Ordered delivery through Postmates with my brother and everything was good and fine until I realized they did not add my avocado topping. Dissapoint ing cause I got charges $1.50 for that single topping AND DIDNT GET IT. read more

Should of listened to the reviews about the portions. Ordered double salmon and received 4 pieces. Same with the shrimp, only 3 pieces of tiny shrimp. Also the rice was uncooked and hard. I knew It was going to be bad once I seen they fit half and half with 5 side in a small regular sized bowl easily with still room the add more. read more

I specifically order everything to be NOT SPICY and the house sauce+ miso sauce mixture was so spicy i couldn't even finish it

Really good portions for its price. Excellent service every time. Highly recommend this poke place over the other ones in SGV.

Some good poke, decently priced and for a good amount of food and they don't charge extra for avocado! Always a plus! They have two different types of the crab salad which is nice to have but even more unique is the two different types of masago! That was a first. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the neighborhood and in the mood for poke. Can't beat the quantity, quality, taste, and customer service. read more

I've been meaning to write this since my visit on 4/27, but I'm finally getting to it. My family and I frequented Oke Poke since it opened -- we absolutely loved this place, the food & service was always amazing...then they changed owners. I had not visited Oke Poke for a while, and my family decided we wanted poke for dinner so they sent me to go pick it up. In the beginning of me ordering I told the gentleman helping me that I was going to be ordering 4 bowls and 1 kids bowl. Apparently he was new so a man, who said his name is Raymond, began helping to speed up the process as they were getting close to closing time. After I'm done getting the 4 bowls completed, I asked again for the kids bowl, and Raymond said "we already put everything away, sorry we can't do that one." I had already asked for the bowl and it is not my fault that they started to put things away, besides all the bowl needed was rice and fish (which still wasn't put away -- only the toppings.) I said to him, "I already asked for the bowl, though." He says again that there's nothing he can do for me. I asked him, "so I'm supposed to go somewhere else now to get food to feed my niece?" All he could say was sorry. I almost left, but considering my family wanted poke, I felt bad to not bring them what they asked for. I asked Raymond if he could provide a discount for the inconvenience, he said he couldn't but he could offer more protein on one of the bowls -- how can you provide more protein for a bowl already complete but not put ONLY rice and protein in a bowl??? I asked to speak to the manager and he stated he was the manager and that they are under new management. CLEARLY!!!! The people who ran this place before were so, so amazing and now, it has obviously gone downhill. Making a customer go somewhere else to complete getting dinner for their family is the furthest thing from customer service I have ever heard of. We will definitely not be returning to this place! read more

I went in today and got a 5 scoop protein bowl. They didn't give me enough fish even though I payed more and it didn't seem fresh at all. I wouldn't recommend. read more

Place is dope me and the bros come here every so often and they don't skimp on the portions definitely deserved 5 star. Service is great to workers are chill. read more

Oke Poke is just okay. I really can't think of anything that really stands out about this place. Their fish tastes fresher than it actually looks. So don't be scared! Not much to say about this place other that it was just the average poke spot. I wasn't necessarily impressed. read more

Yeah, I don't know. I'll be up front and honest: I'm not really an ~authentic~ poke lover. I add a bunch of stuff on top of my poke and the real taste of the fish is probably drowned out by all the spicy mayo and eel sauce I like to drench my food in. So, if you are not like me, and prefer a more authentic feel to your poke akin to what you'd expect in Hawaii then please disregard my review of this fine establishment. I've eaten here a handful of times and the service is really good, everyone has seemed friendly. If that's important to you (which it is to me) that's a plus. The fish has always tasted okay, but the size of the bowls is definitely smaller than what I'm used to seeing at similar places. Everything just tasted okay to me. Not the best poke I've ever had, but not bad either. Also, they don't have eel sauce so it's totally possible I'd like it way better if I had eel sauce which I realize sounds stupid but I literally only knocked them one star so don't @ me. Overall, if you're thinking about it, I'd say it's worth giving this place a shot. read more

The quality of the fish here is just terrible. I attempted to eat a piece of the salmon but as a super fishy taste permeated my mouth upon contact, I could not bring myself to take a single bite. I ordered takeout for a regular create your own bowl with salmon and tuna. The moment I got home and opened my poke bowl, I was immediately disappointed. This was my first time ordering from Oke Poke and I read in the reviews that you guys are known for big quantities of fish in the poke bowl for decent quality fish. My bowl literally had what looks like 3 tablespoons of fish LOL. like ?????????? huh?????? I paid $10.50 for this???? The bowl was literally just rice. AND the fish itself is terribly fishy which means it's not fresh at all. Super dull colored and just smells bad. I don't know if the quality has suffered because of COVID but if this is the quality of the fish you guys have right now, you're going to make people sick. read more

The service was good but the food was not that great. Looking at the quality of the fish, you can see the skin and the white stringy part that makes the fish chewy. I really wanted to like this place because I love poke but definitely will not be coming back. read more

They are generous with the portions here and everything taste fresh. First time I had cream cheese with my poke and it was like I was having a Philly roll in a bowl. Dollar extra for that but they don't charge for avocado. Over all loved the experience here. I would totally come back to this lovely hole in the wall place. read more

Had poke at this place three different times and every time it was a great experience and amazing. Great health food and light on the belly. Staff is very helpful and friendly. I would recommend it to all who love poke and are looking for a good healthy lunch. read more

Ordered the 5 scoop protein bowl for $11.50. Good enough for two people that aren't that hungry. Fish was fresh. Avocado was free, which was nice, but also hard as a rock so I couldn't eat it. Don't forget Free Miso soup with a yelp check in. read more

My daughter tried this place out and is hooked.. Their fish and toppings are fresh. We made it to their Happy hour today: $2 off your bowl or .99 dole whipped ice cream (total deal). We also checked in and they gave us a free miso soup. Our favorite place so far in the area read more

This is a great poke place! They have the best service and the food is great here! I would definitely recommend to anybody looking for a good poke place. read more

Food is always great, but the staff never washes their hands. They wear the same gloves to do your checkout then just toss them and grab a new pair without washing or they'll put a loose pair on top of another pair and only swap the top pair between customers (while handling money). Management needs to retrain on proper hand washing procedures, especially handing raw foods. read more

Average at best. Portion size wasn't good, asked for a large salad and it had barely any salad. Best thing about here was the sauces and free avocado. read more

1st off, sign on front door stating No Salmon and something else I couldn't quite make out. Bad sign already. Gave it a shot anyway. Walked in, not too many people. Was at the bar waiting to order (just me, no one else in line) and no one at bar. Looked at back room and some young guy clearly saw me in line. Waited a minute and not even an acknowledgement. As I waited another minute overlooking the bar, I looked once again at the young man who saw me and just didn't walk out to attend me. Might tolerate so so food but bad service, no way! I walked out. Peace Oke Poke. Went to Waba Grill couple doors down. read more

I tried this Poke shop with a coworker this afternoon for a lunch meeting. I didn't expect much at first because I've been to plenty shops that charged too much for a small bowl. Upon ordering, I was surprised at their menu because they offered 3 scoops and 5 scoops. Most shops I've dined in only offered 2 scoops like Ahi Poke and charge $12. I noticed they had different toppings available as well, and first scoop for any toppings are included.. yes even the avocado. I was really impressed that it had a Hawaiian feel to it and even had Kona Coffee at their shop. Overall, the meal was great. If there's something I could suggest.. it would be adding a bigger scoop of crab salad as it tasted a bit dry and stuck together. Regardless, I would visit this shop again whenever I'm in the area! read more

Though I ADORE this place; I came in tonight to grab a quick bowl for takeout while my kids food was being prepared a few doors down. As usual the service was lovely BUT when it came to payment, the girl told me it was cash only because the system had been down all day. I certainly understand tech issues, but I should have been told when she started my order. I didn't have time to get cash and it breaks my heart that all that I ordered went to waste! There were 2 simple options, give me the information at the start of my order or COMP the order because of failed communication and put it on my account! I would have gladly paid for it the next time I came in! I'm so very disappointed! Another go-to I will not "go to" again! read more

I love this poke place! Not only is it super close to my house, but it is also in a very convenient shopping center! The salmon is always super fresh, and the portion sizes are pretty good considering the cost. I've been going about 1-2 times a week since it opened and will probably be going there tonight! read more

This USED to be my favorite poke place and I will not be going anymore. I can see they have a lot of new staff so I don't know who to blame but I have been going for many years. The portions they used to give used to fill up the entire bowl and it used to be hard for me to mix which is a good thing. Now these employees don't even fill the whole scoop AND THE SCOOPER IS EXTREMELY SMALL. They always had the same scooper but the employees were not doing justice today. Can I please have some salmon with my rice please, I THINK this is a poke place IM NOT EVEN SURE ANYMORE. Also not to mention a previous time, the worker was on a personal phone call while doing my order and ringing me up without a mask. Let me finish off by saying I also recommended this place to a friend and there was a FLY flying over the seafood. Thank you. I'm finished. read more

The poke here is better than the place down the street. I normally enjoy getting my poke bowls from here. The only complaint I have is that they mixed the seaweed salad and crab salad together along with the fish and sauces without even asking me if I wanted it done that way. In the past they would put the salads on the side (just like all other poke places do) so I'm not sure why protocol has changed? Now that the salads are mixed in it takes away from the taste of the poke. I'll make sure to let them know the next time that I'd like the salads on the side. read more

Walked in during lunch time, around 1:00 pm not busy at all. The people working here were great, very generous! Which is a must in a place like this lol the quality of the fish was good as well as the freshness of the salad. Price was good around 10$ for three scoops. I asked for extra spicy mayo drizzled over top :) which gave it the perfect kick! Also my exact order was 3 scoops (2 salmon, 1 spicy tuna) mixed with spicy mayo and teriyaki sauce, with half rice half salad as my base. read more
