    Been going here since it was Oke Poke, both here and the one in Chino Hills (but the CH one is gone now). Standard poke bowl place. Sometimes a few people inside. Plenty of parking outside. Honestly the whole experience really depends on who is making your bowl. Generally its been fine. Sometimes its been an employee who doesn't seem too invested but then heaps on the toppings which is a cool surpise. Theres been one employee who really just sucks the joy out of getting a poke bowl bc they just stand there and go "uh, what did you want?" but if i pull up and hes working i just go somewhere else. Easy rewards system. Buy 10 bowls get 1 free!

    Salmon Poke Bowl

    Cassie took my order she is so sweet! The place was empty when I came in, I tried this place once before and it was pretty good! I'm not a big poke bowl person but needed something healthy to eat today. So decided on this, I got one protein, salmon and white rice with spicy crab, spicy mayo, onions, scallions and some fried onions for some texture, also some cucumbers and ginger! Very simple but delicious bowl, the salmon was a tiny bit on the fishy side but I still ate almost the entire bowl. I got my bowl quickly they have inside seating. Lots of parking it's near Albertoson's and a bank. I would come back here it's not my first choice but the service was amazing so that makes me want to come back again. Thank you for fantastic service and my delicious poke bowl. Have a beautiful day :) Aloha

    Brown rice; salmon, tuna, spicy tuna. Lots of seaweed, house sauce. Joy.

    Some of the best Poke I ever had! Was not impressed at first. Place is small but clean, menu is modest, prices high. And the scoop they use to retrieve fish is so small it might as well be a thimble. I got their "Medium" with 3 thimbles, their large is 5. Tuna, spicy tuna, and salmon; brown rice; all the toppings plus extra seaweed, and house sauce. Delicious!

    Walked in and was greeted by who I think might have been the wonder, super nice and respectful. But first thing I noticed was the smell. It was not a pleasant one to walk into. But I still had hope. When we got our food and took it home, we started eating. I then noticed the smell of my rice and it was again not a pleasant or fresh smell of rice. It actually smelled like either dirty water rice or when you let the rice sit out to long kind of smelled. The rice I had ordered was the sushi rice and my wife had ordered normal white rice. Both smelled incredibly bad.

    Bad cucumber soggy and frozen

    Service and food... nobody came to the bell for minute , then young girl with inappropriate clothing appeared and couldn't get order right for which bowls I wanted and had to be reminded. Scoops my rice onto my plate using the lid of the plastic Togo container. Then when I said to please remove the cucumber since it was frozen and soggy from defrosting she looked at me like nothing is wrong with it. When I asked her if she sees it's bad she says I don't kno I got in 20 minutes ago. Then when I asked for house spice and ponzu she says they are the same thing which they are not and puts spicy mayo on it and we don't eat mayo. I said that and she looked at me like that's my problem. I asked if it can be removed she said she would have to charge me. I said she could have asked me which spicy I wanted since there's 3 of em. Instead when I told her she only doesn't care but I won't be back here she says she doesn't care doesn't like my attitude. Then when my hand is out for my change she sets it down on counter behind my reach and leaves to the back. I had to bring her back out just to get my receipt. WE HAVE BEEN RETUN CUSTOMERS AND NOW I WILL NOT BE BACK... good luck

    Despite the horrendous reviews, I decided to give Grindz Poke a try. When I walked in, contrary to what others said, the smell of the store seemed perfectly normal. Even if there was a smell, how much can that hurt? It's just a little bit of added personality. The environment was extremely well maintained and a nice young lady welcomed me into the store. I wasn't able to get her name but she was very kind and had a very warm smile. As for the food, I have nothing but a raving review!! The salmon was fresh, not in the slightest fishy. I consider myself to be a connoisseur of poke bowls and this one just might be in my top 10! The rice was a bit moist but it was well compensated with the ratio of fish I was given. The salmon is a must try and the avocado was absolutely fresh. I'm really glad I gave this place a try, and I most DEFINITELY will be back.

The bathroom was nice and clean as well. We got the chubby cheesecake, sweet corn latte, and berries n cream matcha. Our cashier was very sweet and helpful with understanding the menu options. The cheesecake was SO delicious with fluffy cream on top and honey on the bottom. The corn latte is so yummy, such a nice light corn flavor! The berry matcha has a strong flavor and the fresh, sweet berries in it perfectly complement the matcha bitterness. The foam on the top is not too heavy either. Can't wait to come back when i'm in the area!

The bread is soft, the garlic flavor is just right, and the cream cheese filling brings everything together perfectly. Their coffee drinks are also consistently good. My personal favorite is the Smokin' Spaniard, probably because I'm a sucker for anything made with condensed milk. It's rich, smooth, and just sweet enough without being over the top. On a recent visit, I decided to try their new Pineapple Express. It was a hot day, and I was in the mood for something fruity and refreshing without any caffeine. It was decent - light and refreshing, though it didn't quite stand out as much as their coffee drinks for me. Overall, this is still one of my favorite bakeries and coffee spots. Between the delicious pastries, solid drinks, and cozy atmosphere, it's a place I find myself returning to again and again.

We went a few months ago but I didn't go in (the parking lot is always pretty packed because it's shared with other busy businesses) and waited in the car while my family went in to order. Everyone raved, like for weeks, about the ice cream, and even though I didn't order anything, I still took their word for it because they are absolute ice cream snobs. Fast forward to yesterday when we were in the neighborhood again. I found 15-minute parking right outside the shop and from the moment we opened the door, everything was the best. The place: adorable and clean, with free water and a stack of napkins next to the water cups. A super clean restroom, too. The samples: they didn't skimp, and metal, full-size sample spoons? A nice eco-friendly touch. The service: just lovely. The flavors: I never thought I'd like pineapple in my ice cream, but the pineapple upside down cake took me back to the kitchen of my childhood (it was one of my mom's specialties,) and the pineapple didn't interfere, wasn't weird or chewy...it just blended so well with all the other flavors and textures. Another winner: the blueberry cheesecake. Oh my gosh. Next time, I'm bringing the insulated bags and stocking up on some pints. This is some of the best ice cream around, I promise you.

There were a lot of people already inside - a great sign! More people were filtering in while we were browsing their ice cream. I decided on their Blackberry Cobbler. It's a vanilla oat milk base with blackberry jam swirl and cobbler crumbles. It was light and refreshing. The jam added the perfect amount of sweetness. The crumbles added a nice crunchy contrast. This was definitely a summer flavor! They have parking near the front which is also shared with other businesses in the plaza. They have plenty of seating inside with tables for large and small groups. The staff is friendly and efficient. The ice cream was also reasonably priced. I recommend Blue Scoop Creamery. I love a dessert spot that sells seasonal flavors. It keeps it exciting on every visit. I'm glad my husband and I could add this to our list of dessert shops in Brea.

The employee at the register was friendly, but the person who handed us our order completely ruined our experience. When our number was called, we went to the pickup counter and were looking at the drinks to figure out which was which. The employee asked for our receipt, so I placed it on the counter right in front of her, next to our drinks. Instead of simply picking up the paper and placing it in the basket herself, she rudely and purposefully ordered me to throw it in the basket, even though it was not on my side. She also mumbled so quickly and dismissively when explaining the drinks and walked away that we actually had to ask again just to figure out which was which. From start to finish, her attitude was incredibly cold, rude, and unprofessional. She made our entire group feel unwelcome and upset. While we decided to let it go in the moment because she is immature but this was completely unacceptable customer service. This used to be the only location I regularly visited near my house, but because of her behavior, I will not be returning. I rarely leave reviews but am writing this so management is aware of how their customers are being treated.

They roast everything in store, it's all fresh, never have I encountered a bitter or burnt taste with any of their selections. Each one has its own unique taste. The nice thing is each day they'll feature a blend that you can buy by the cup and find your favorite. I have my favorites, but I'm not disappointed with any blend they feature for the day. Once you find your favorites, you can buy a bag and take home. Again, it's all roasted right in the shop. You gotta go try it out for yourself. I love the entire staff, they're all so very friendly!
