Solid place for build your own poke. We have ate at many authentic Hawaiian poke places throughout the country (including HI) and this place suffices for Central MA. They have ample parking, online ordering, and dole whip if you're into that. If you decide to visit during weekday lunch hour, parking gets pretty busy--so watch out. There's a Starbucks nearby so watch out for the crazy coffee hunters screaming through the parking lot. There's a Chipotle in the same plaza too so watch out for those DoorDashers and college kids tearing up the streets. There's a daycare within the plaza too so folks, please take it easy. Yes, going on a rant a bit but wanted to emphasize those items there. We always go with spicy tuna and it meets the needs of hunger. If you're into brown rice, they do it right at Island Fin. Many other places, brown rice tends to be dry as the Sahara. But you'll be good here. Dining in during lunch is chill enough. Good seating. Eat by yourself if you like and stare at your phone (although I don't recommend just staring at your phone). Enjoy reality a bit. Just enjoy your poke bowl and be safe... seriously. read more

Island Fin Poke - Spicy Tuna Poke Bowl. Wasn't bad. - Hawaiian Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I did UberEats from here. I got the 3 fish bowl (around $15). There's an awesome variety of toppings and crunchies and sauces. Only nit - Poke was of alright quality, kind of stringy / chewy. It felt like a good, healthy, filling dinner though. read more

Island Fin Poke - BYOB - Hawaiian Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

The first time we went, they were out of cucumber which was disappointing but understandable. All subsequent times, I was able to get my cucumbers. Delicious sauces (I'm a fan of the ponzu sauce & avocado cream combo). Fresh ingredients and a large portion. The 3 scoops of BYO is a perfect size and I'm left satisfied. One of my favorite places to get a quick meal! read more

I've been in a few times and I always leave happy. First of all- the majority of the food is gluten free (even their soy sauce), and they are very aware of what is not gluten free. Staff is friendly and helpful. Portions are big, fish is always fresh. I've always taken my food to go, but the restaurant is always clean and inviting. They have yummy looking dole whips as well, will definitely be trying next time. read more

Island Fin Poke offers a straightforward and enjoyable experience. When you walk in, there is a wide selection of options to customize your bowl, which makes the process feel personal rather than rushed. The ingredients were fresh and well prepared, which is essential for a place built around poke. Service was quick and efficient, making it an easy stop without sacrificing quality. read more

Island Fin Poké bowls have great portions, somewhat making up for its price. It's a bit difficult to order because there are special names for some ingredients, but no description on the boards/signs. I also tried to order on the online browser, but it would not accept my order. Maybe try ordering through the app instead? I'm knocking down one star just for simplicity. The service was straightforward-- the person working there was accommodating and answered any questions we asked. The atmosphere was also very straightforward. It has decorations and a theme going. read more

This is my go-to poke place, they never disappoint! I'm not gonna lie and act like I've tried a bunch of their items on the menu because I haven't, I stick to the Korean bbq chicken bowl each time because it's that's good. The ingredients taste so fresh each time and always well made. The service is very quick and I've never had a long wait for my food. The restaurant itself is very clean and the staff is friendly. Zero complaints from me! read more

Island Fin Poke is always so consistent! The fish always tastes fresh and the ingredients are abundant. Also, the bowl portions are quite generous. The flavor of the dole soft serve changes each time we go so it's great being able to try a new flavor each time. The staff is also great about accommodating for my sesame allergy. 5/5. read more

This place was a find. I was seeking GF options besides No bun buddy! It was amazing and under $20 with a drink! Fish was fresh and toppings plenty! I hope they build one near Danvers or Newburyport soon!! read more

I was looking for a place that I can order ahead, set a pickup time, and quickly get food within a small window for a work meeting. Island Fin Poke was very convenient with the online ordering on their website. It was my first time here and I was excited to try it out. I chose to build my own Spicy Tuna Pokebowl and the online selections made it very easy. There were also a variety of add-on options to compliment the entree. I chose white rice and spring mix, spicy tuna, furikaki, corn, OG sauce, cucumber, togarashi, sesame seed, chili flake, sea salt, crispy onion, roasted garlic, and Nori strip. Keep in mind that all bowls come with 3 scoops of protein of your choice. I couldn't leave the order without also getting a Dole Whip Cup! I got the Orange flavor to try out. I drove to the location and the store was nestled inside a nice plaza with large parking lot. I was able to park right up front. I went inside to pick up my food at my selected time of 12:00 pm. They were just finishing up dispensing the Dole Whip into the cup. They were right on time! Note: you can specify curbsideside pickup on their website or even call when you arrive and they'll bring it to your car. The pokebowl turned out to be absolutely delicious and filling! I like a little heat/spice, so the Spicy Tuna Poke was perfect. The Orange Dole Whip was a great way to end the meal. I definitely recommend ordering from here with the order ahead option and selecting the most convenient pickup time for you. The food will be most likely be prepared closer to your time to remain fresh. Enjoy! read more

I've been wanting to check this place out for awhile and finally got a chance to today! Masks are required and there are four outdoors tables. You pick your base and protein and toppings in sort of an assembly line fashion. We went at the lunch hour so they were working on online orders in between in-person customers. It looks like they are doing great business during the pandemic. The owner explained what different flavor each of the sauces were since my "poke artist" was a little newer. Everything tasted super fresh... I liked this place better than Atlantic Poke in Shrewsbury. There are so many choices that anyone is bound to be happy with the final product. I would definitely come back! read more

My bowl had 24 individual items. So happy I didn't edit myself. I'm a big guy who was hungry after a day of shopping with the wife. We live in the boonies so make it a point to try new places when we're around civilization. The bowl was good and extremely filling after being hungry. The value for the $ is great and though filling, this was a healthier option than many in the area. We will definitely be back. read more

It's a strip mall poke place and if you like strip mall poke, you'll probably like island fin. It's not that different from other poke places I've tried, but it is the closest to my house so its become a regular spot.

The is definitely my go-to for poke bowls. There are several toppings to choose from and the proteins are very fresh. The customer service is always on point. My favorite is the salmon tuna and spicy salmon. The OG veggies too. They give you a lot for your buck. Definitely recommend. read more

This is the best place for poké in New England! It's hard to find poké at all on the east coast so we weren't expecting to find such an awesome place in central Massachusetts. We got two brown rice bowls, one with spicy tuna and the other with chicken. They have every topping you could want: edamame, pickled ginger, onions, seaweed, jalapeños, and more, plus a bunch of delicious sauces. The ingredients are fresh and the staff are friendly and eager to help. We will definitely be back! They even gave us samples of the pineapple whip dessert read more

Friendly and happily attentive staff, serving fresh food in as close to a Hawaiian beach vibe as the location, or Worcester allows. They cater to our Gluten free, and diary free population and never does it feel lacking in taste or diversity. One of the few places that serve the dairy free Dole whip dessert. Would highly recommend the place.... read more

Great food and wonderful addition to the area. The staff are always friendly and thoroughly explain the ingredients (lots to choose from). Price is reasonable considering the amount of food and quality of ingredients. Owner is super friendly and you can tell they take pride in their establishment. Glad this place is sticking around. I will keep returning for sure! Pro tip: get half greens and half rice to start. They're happy to do some of each! read more

Omg this place is soooo good!! I've been told to get poké a lot recently!!! So glad this is here and close to my house! WHAT IS POKÉ??? Well, in a nutshell, it's like a sushi roll but as a salad!! This location pretty much works like a Chipotle: you get to customize your own bowl of yummy goodness. For example I got: -lettuce base (most people get rice) -seaweed salad -spicy tuna -octopus -lots of yummy pickled veggies -some spicy sauce on top SO GOOD!! read more

I have been meaning to come in here and give this place a try. Today I said why not and treated myself. *Veg-Friendly*!! The inside is warm and inviting. A unique and thematic decor resembling a surf shack Hawaiian vibe. I loved it! The service here blew me away. I walked away from the counter, bowl in hand, feeling like I had been a special guest. The people behind the counter are all smiles and want nothing more than to see a satisfied customer. Seriously, 10/10 service. My bowl was decked out with all the goodies! I went with spicy tuna, salmon and guess what, octopus! for my proteins. ~Topped it off with a helping of all the fixings and the surimi which is extra. The kind lady was so nice to give me extra seaweed salad (I love seaweed salad). By the way, the OG veggie mix is BRILLIANT. Would go back just for that. I was also given a free sample of the Dole soft serve. They were so nice because I mentioned I wanted to try it but definitely could not finish an order, so they brought the sample over. With that being said, there's now three very valid reasons to come here: Delicious poke, delicious VEGAN soft serve, and quite exceptional service. 5/5 would recommend. Hoping y'all can whip up a drink menu or have a soda fountain put in. That and some outdoor seating would be awesome. I know it can be difficult being landlocked between two business, but hand me a chair and I'll gladly put back some soft serve in the parking lot. Cheers! read more

Super cute new place in what's apparently called the "trolley yard" in northern worcester. They're on the west side of the lot, they do have a sign but it's kinda small I think! They have about 8 protein options, and some mix ins that basically make sushi in a bowl! All the good stuff without the fuss. Also just a welcomed option on this SUPER hot July weekend. We made two make ur own bowls- a spicy tuna with a savory take, and a salmon with a sweet take and enjoyed both. I think I'd like it with a little more filler tho - like some mixed veggies in the future (base is either lettuce or rice, whether or not it's considered "authentic" (and no, in my mind the "OG veggies" I.e onions and jalapeños don't count). There is corn, edamame, mango, pineapple, onions, seaweed salad for filler, but most of the options albeit good - are really only about a dozen sauces, crunchy toppings, nori, sesame seeds, crunchy garlic etc. for $12 for 3 scoops of protein (found out after u can mix and match them) it's not a bad deal. either way though, everything was yummy, the staff are super friendly, and they came around with samples of dole whip... which we couldn't resist. They always have pineapple, and then rotate another of ~8 flavors. This month was yummy strawberry. $4 for a huge serving. Super needed on these hot summer days! Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

Yummmmmyyyyy! I really enjoyed Island Fin Poke! Portions were great, fish was fresh, and customer service is awesome! They even gave us a little sample of the dole whip, which was delicious! Only improvement I could think of is that their spicy mayo is a bit too sweet. Other than that, I will return for more very soon! :) Ps. Don't forget to sign up for their rewards program!

Island Fin Poke - Very delicious poke bowls - Hawaiian Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I wouldn't even give this place one star ...it is grossly exaggerated on the size of the poke bowl not to mention everything was an up charge ....everything cost a dollar more from the soy sauce to the avocado to the damn dip on top ...I spent $17 on a poke bowl half full with the owner breathing over my shoulder,,,no comfortable atmosphere,,,fish is not supposed to taste or smell like fish but this was not fresh,,, I know when I go to a sushi restaurant and I order a tuna roll they don't say, "00h the avocado cost more , all the rice is extra , we can't give you any spicy mayonnaise dip without an extra dollar, so yeah save your time and your money and just go get some real sushi. read more

Poke sushi is exactly what I wanted tonight and I didn't even know it. Island Fin Poke is the concept of going to a burrito bar where you select all the ingredients you want.... but instead it's a sushi restaurant doing the same thing with sushi ingredients. All my favorite ingredients are here: octopus, seaweed salad, spicy ahi tuna, jalapeños, pickled ginger, edamame, picked veggies, nori... and all sorts more. If these ingredients scare you, don't worry they have more "normal" ingredients like chicken, shrimp and more commonplace ingredients. It's like getting 4 premium sushi rolls for the price of one. Goodbye exuberant sushi restaurant prices and chasing down "3pm lunch specials" hello to all day affordable sushi extravaganza read more

I love their poke especially their togarashi sauce. It kills the boring flavor on the salmon since they dont have spicy salmon options. But what they need to improve is the bowl size (not consistent). I came here several times and always order the same thing and find out sometimes my bowl is in a good size. Sometimes is only half bowl. My advice is they need to train their employees to keep the bowl always the same amount ALL THE TIME. Because its $12 bowl which is kinda pricey. But price it wont matter when i get what i want. I'll give more star when i find out my bowl is perfect size in the future after i post this review. read more
