Span masubi
Bisy Y.

Working in Portland for 2 weeks, I have been wanting poke but haven't seen any worthy ones. But caught this one and I worked 5 mins away so I decided to go. It was definitely worth it. A clean little spot. They really loaded it up especially with the seaweed salad ( and it tasted delish and flavorful). I also got two spam masubi (already pre-made in a heat oven) I was a little skeptical of it. But they turned out to actually be really good, plenty of sauce to keep it from drying and a great amount. The lady who prepped my bowl was nice and professional.

Small Small Poke Bowl, Medium Poke Bowl, Miso Soup
Jaymi B.

Great place for a quick healthy lunch! I actually don't eat raw fish, so why go to a poke place? They have a tofu option and unlimited toppings. I got the small and my husband got the medium. Mine was so filling I took a to-go box. Very fresh and it was so nice that they offer free miso soup and hot tea! Friendly staff that explain the process of ordering and you can tell they keep up on cleaning, it was spotless in there.

Small Poke Bowl
Ploy N.

I'm a fan! Clean and fresh made-to-order poke bowls. Their fish quality is great. Many toppings, sauces, and add-on options. Also, prices are better than most places. The place itself is also very clean. Plenty of seats. A great quick lunch spot.

Small Poke Bowl
Angelica H.

I had high hopes based on the previous reviews but was a bit let down. First, the food was not bad. I'm a Hawaii girl, so maybe I'm a bit picky, but there was decent flavor. It just had a little too much of an old fishy tasty, but the sauces helped. I liked it overall, but if you're charging me $15 for a small bowl of previously frozen fish, it better be good! Additionally, I'm not sure if that man working was having an off day, but he did not smile once. You'd expect a welcoming environment but he looked like he wanted to get his service done and move on with the day. I don't like that. Maybe I'd come back if I'm in the area and seriously craving some poke, but I doubt that'll happen.

Medium with 3 scoops salmon
Kristi P.

Great food for a hot day! Instead of pre-set bowl combos, there is a 6 Step menu full of choices. If you're indecisive, this could be a nightmare. I got a medium (3 scoops of protein) on mixed salad. If you only get rice, the take-out box is smaller. You can also do half and half. I got 3 scoops salmon, which came in large cubes and was fresh. You can choose a different protein for each scoop if you want to. There are a lot of mix-in and topping options, which is nice for customization. I got seaweed salad and crab for Sides, but next time I will get edamame instead of crab. It is a great healthy meal without sacrificing taste. It was quite filling but I managed to finish it. :)

The menu process is long and full of decisions, could be slow if people don't know what they want or indecisive

Saw this place open up a couple months ago but simply didn't have time to stop and check it out during the busy holidays, I and the family love our Poke and couldn't wait to check it out as it is close and convenient at the corner of Cornell and Saltzmann. Can't beat the location should be a hit! Learned it was the same chain as the one downtown, how is it? Not as good as the one downtown but a solid poke experience! Came in on a Saturday at prime lunch time 12:30 and were the only customer, hmm was it good? Will it stay in business ? Is the fish fresh? Surprised how empty the place is, not a good sign! Forgot how slow the process could be with so many choices, god help the line of you got a lot of indecisive people in front of you, I only had the wife, LOL Got a medium half and half, so cute the staff was so carefully setting the portions, funny how carefully he was, almost thought he was on camera, but surprise I didn't seem the ever watching cameras, hmm. How was the meal? Fish was fresh!!!! How was the selection of toppings, plenty to scratch every combo you'd want. How was the value, pretty good for fresh poke and all the toppings! Hope the place gets some business and stays open! I'll be back much better than five guys but will Chipotle's new healthy get me back is the question to be answered another day ;-)

Small Poke Bowl
Katie L.

Finally! A good poke place in the Beaverton area! There is an ample selection of protein, toppings, sauce and sides. For a small bowl, you can choose 2 protein choices and I usually opt for double salmon. The dried garlic and onions are cherry on tops; they added to the bowl in a refreshing way and enriched the flavor of the fish. Staffs are knowledgeable of the options presented and are highly efficient. I recommend adding more sauce in the future, especially for larger bowls! Will come back again :)

My partner and I got the grilled bbq chicken and the bbq short ribs + marinated beef. Unfortunately, the deep fried chicken was sold out for the day (we came in about 45 minutes until closing so perhaps our fault). I think because of the time we came in- we got kitchen scraps. The short ribs were 90% fat and 10% actual meat. The macaroni salad was incredibly plain, it needed more seasoning - pepper something because it straight up looked it was pasta with slabbed mayo. I will however give a shot out to their poke because I don't eat seafood nor like it and I did give this a try for the fun of it and it was delicious. Again I think because we came in 40-45 minutes before closing closing the service was not great either. I saw the self service bottles of sauce and when I came back I asked the lady for one and she said she had run out when it was pretty clear she was just cleaning up. Fair- you want to get out of there on time. So I asked the lady for hot sauce and she said it was extra and charged me $1.00 per 2.5oz container which is just diabolical in my opinion- I still paid none the less so it's my dusky for contribution to the fiasco. Overall it was mid, I'm used to much more flavorful food in Los Angeles. Ill give it another go whenever I'm in the area at a different time. Perhaps it was a one off day for them.

But today, I had the time to swing by and fortunately he was open, but SOLD OUT. Fortunately, he had a few things left over. So I said yes to a mix plate. Nolan's Hawaii accent is still thick it made me feel like I was back home on the west side for a second (!!!!thank you!!!!) I met some people outside the food stand, a business man from Hawaii and some California people I mistaken were from Hawaii as well, lol. It was an awesome interaction, from the moment I got there I got greeted by strangers waiting for food, to going up to the window and asking "so what? No more nuttin left?" Nolan's response was "Nah I only get mochicko chicken and kalua, you likem?" Haha that was a definite yes! Won't miss out on home food esp if word of mouth was already out there. So I waited a few minutes for my food, and the box was heavy. Haha it felt like when you would eat at your aunty and uncles house and they pack you the party left overs. I opened my plate lunch and I was greeted by a huge portion of chicken, pork rice and Mac salad. And let me tell you, the Mac salad didn't have so much frills like what you would see in a Portland Hawaii food joint. It was sauced, and seasoned. PERFECT! No need for all the extra add ons. As I started eating, let me say that kalua pork was no joke so moist and easy to eat not even close to dried out. The chicken tasted nice and crispy with just enough marinate and fluff. I haven't found this anywhere in Oregon..until here. Yeah sure there's a poke and katsu bar in the shopping center next door... but I take the random food cart in the parking lot any day over something franchised

Laulau, chicken long rice...CHICKEN LONG RICE! I haven't had that in years and suddenly my mouth was watering. None of the other plate lunch/Hawaiian food places in PDX have had that to my knowledge, and I needed to have it now. My dining companion was taking in the meat jun on the menu, as well as the fried rice omelette. We went in and ordered the chicken adobo fried rice omelette and chicken long rice on the side. Double starch, double chicken, check. Loved that the menu pointed out they serve koshihikari rice. I knew I was in good hands. No medium grain rice for this gal. The service was friendly, the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. There was a nice note on the wall saying the table would be bussed by staff, so we didn't have to play the guessing game of "search for the bus bins." Clean tables, bright light from the windows, good food. The adobo gravy on the omelette was winnahs. The omelette itself was not holding a candle to Elena's Food Truck, but tasty and filling. The chicken long rice was perfect. The only improvement would have been a nice hit of white pepper, maybe. The only thing not quite to my liking was the mac salad, but that didn't stop us from mopping our plates clean. We will be back for everything else on the menu.
