If I closed my eyes, I probably couldn't tell you what kind of hot dogs I was eating. I couldn't tell there was chili on that dog. And the kraut dog had more diced onions than kraut. The crinkle fries were standard and the coleslaw so was good. Everyone else enjoyed their meal. I can see how The Corner Bar is nostalgic for those who grew up coming here. I'll have to try different food next time.

Luckily, I was able to learn how to order thanks to the nice gentleman in front of me ordering whilst holding a conversation with me. Basically, the set up is a lot like Q-doba. You stand in line, choose your bowl size, choose your proteins and then toppings and sauce. I chose the regular bowl because it had 2 proteins and I just couldn't decide between spicy salmon and spicy tuna. My bowl was delicious! I was impressed with the amount of rice options, the quality of the poke, and the copious amounts of toppings and sauces to choose from. This place was fine for a lunch date where I met up with a friend I hadn't seen in 20+ years. Everything was delicious, though the milk tea with boba was a little too sweet for my taste. Overall, excellent lunch option, albeit a tad expensive for "fast food." My milk tea and regular poke bowl came up to over $22. Certainly worth it, but not a daily go to option on my budget. Def check out poke toki if you're in the area. The food is better than the pun this restaurant is named after. Now turn yourself about, and do the Poke Toki!

The problem is top down from the General Manger, Shift Manager, and very poorly trained server. Also very average bar food for fine dining prices. When we arrived it was busy so we expected things to take a minute. However after sitting for 15 minutes we flagged down a waitress. She wasn't ours but took our order which we appreciated. Our server finally showed up. Took 5 mins to get water and another 10 to get our drink order. Then 40 mins latter still no food. The people who sat behind us arrived after us had their food and by the time we got our food they were done. All the while our server never came to our table. I flagged a busboy asked him to find our server and asked to see a manager. By this time we had already been there over an hour. The shift manager show up before our food and rather than apologize for the poor service he proceeded to tell us the excuses for why our food has taken so long. I finally got tired of his excuses I said "stop making excuses and get us our food". A few minutes later the food showed up. No silverware, salt/pepper, ketchup or drink refills. Again asked a bus person to help. Waitress never came back. After a few minutes the General Manager came out accused us of being disrespectful to his server and shift manager and proceeded to start swearing at us. We never said anything to the server and the only thing I said to the shift manager was stop making excuses and get our food. The GM again never acknowledged the poor service and accused us of swearing and being disrespectful. Never listened to us and asked us to leave. He threatened to physically remove me rather than listen to how bad the service was ‍ Incompetence at all levels. Save your time and money.

We went in a Thursday night and we're seated immediately. Our server Bella was super friendly and made a few beer suggestions for me as well. I had a flight of 5 beers and a cider. My favorite beer was their Sacred Maize.... a Peruvian Chicha Style beer. We started with the Seoul Food Poutine which was crispy fries topped with braised beef,curds,fried egg and onions. Absolutely delicious but could have been hotter in temperature. We split a GF Goat Cheese and sausage pizza. Unfortunately the first one they brought out was raw in the middle so we waited for a second one which was better but not great. It might have been an off night for the kitchen but all in all a good variety of food options and interesting beers on tap.

I ordered the steak enchiladas verdes, which came with rice and refried beans. The portion was good, but I didn't know the steak was a $1 upcharge, which isn't a huge deal I guess. My boyfriend got the 3 tacos entree with carne asada, onions/cilantro and a small guacamole dip came on the side, plus rice and beans.

We ordered 4 entrees the ones we usually always get at Thai places and they were subpar. The masamin curry really wasn't very good it was overly salty and wasn't curry but more just tofu and veggies. The tofu wasn't fired very well and some pieces were hard, most of it was overly chewy. Had to ask for water refilled and when he did it had no ice and was warm. I did appreciate that they marked gluten free and vegetarian items though, that was nice. Unfortunately we probably won't be back.
