I think this is still the best just poke location out there. This is the OG and they are outstanding. The people are nice. The amount of food you get is very generous. It has seatings and the vibe is very social. Parking is street. I like the unlimited toppings and fillings, you can get pretty full from a normal bowl if you add everything. read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

Foods good, very good actually. The service is the worst. Glad I ordered my food ahead of time just for them to print out the order in-front of me and make me wait 10 extra minutes when I even showed up later than it said it would be ready. Also glad I paid an extra $1.50 to not get my extra side of crab salad. Thanks for the terrible experience! read more

I was craving poke and I decided to try Just Poke in Kirkland. I personalized my poke with salmon and ahi tuna as the proteins. The proteins were good, but wasn't great. One of their outstanding sides was their spicy mandarins which was a nice twist in my poke dish. The portioning was okay. I definitely wished they gave more of the protein and crab salad. The service was okay. The servers answered our questions but wasn't that friendly to us. The poke was fast to make. The ambiance is nice. There's some cool posters on the wall. It's clean and organized inside as well. read more

This was my first tome ever having poke so I needed a lot of help with the menu throughout the process. After waiting for the 1 person working to finish cleaning duties (you are supposed to stop immediately, wash up and help the customer), he finally came over after about 4 minutes. He did not even acknowledge us until he came over although it was obvious we were there He then just assumed I new everything I wanted and was slightly annoyed that I didnt. After helping me with the first choice, another woman came out to finish helping me and she was definitely annoyed with all of my questions. Wow. The reason you have a job is because you have customers. No customers, no business, no job. I then asked for water and was pointed to the large water jug...which when I got to it did not have any cups, so I had to wait for them to finish with a customer who was also new and taking a really long time to ask for a cup. He said they were supposed to be out there. Maybe he should have been refilling things customers needed than the deep cleaning he seemed to be doing upon arrival My food was just ok. Definitely not worth going through that so I wont return Businesses need to realize with high food prices, we will be more selective with where we go and I am not giving my business to this type which lacks customer care The restaurant was clean though. At least that is one win for them. read more

I am like the biggest poke fan ever, and just poke is one of my go to's! I love their salmon and sauces, the flavors are incredible. The service and ambiance are nice too the stores are always clean! I highly recommend for a fresh meal if you live near one read more

I came here a while ago, and it was so delicious. I've never had poke until I moved here. It is very delicious. It was so refreshing to have and I love it so much and I also got a spam musubi which is very delicious and I really love them and the customer service was really good as well too and I will come here again and get that again. read more

I'm a JustPoke fiend for sure. Ive been to quite a lot of locations now. The service at this location was definitely the kindest I've had. It was super clean and everything tasted fresh. Can't beat the location either, being downtown Kirkland! read more

I love Just Poke, and got to try the Kirkland location recently. I got the regular build your own bowl, with a mix of white ice and organic greens, Spicy Ahi, Shoyu Salmon, with a range of toppings. I loved my poke bowl. read more

Visited "Just Poke" in Kirkland for a quick lunch with a coworker. The poke bowls were just okay. The fish freshness felt average and nothing particularly stood out. The restaurant space seemed a bit cluttered, which took away from the overall vibe. Music was also a little too loud for casual conversation. Decent for a quick bite, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to revisit. JY review read more

Delicious and fresh fish. I took off 1 Star because staff occasionally forgets items that are part of the dish. Missing attention to detail matters as we have dietary restrictions. Overall this place offers friendliness and cleanliness so I like that. Indoor and outdoor seating is possible -- a huge plus! read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Walking distance to the water - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

Today, Sunday, May 3rd, I received terrible service--caused by a shortage of staff at this location. The person on duty was trying to serve everyone so quickly that the service we received was substandard. I definitely will not be returning here. read more

I wouldn't recommend this place to anybody with an appetite, as it is better off to not eat anything & save your stomach! I had to question if I were camping when they pulled out the torch. To start off I ordered the Teriyaki Salmon, a shame to call this a teriyaki dish. The two woman started by weighing out the salmon chunks into a silver bowl, then turned around & start flame torching the salmon pieces with a butane torch almost as they were trying to hide the method. I was caught a bit off guard by this as they were just torching the meat up close with chemical flames. Stick to the original Poke bowls if this is your liking & save yourself the experience! The spam musubi wasn't the best, sitting in a warmer - as the rice was very hard & dry. Priced at $4.00 for one of these low quality spam musubi's is outrageous, maybe they need to rethink their approach to "Hawaiian" food. read more

The bowls are beautiful and well-assembled, just a tad bit small for the price. I love the variety of toppings (crab salad, spicy crab salad, seaweed salad, masago and pineapple are my favorites) and sauces (truffle aoili! omg!) $13.99 for a regular bowl with two proteins. I chose creamy scallops and Hawaiian Ahi. Ordered online for pickup! read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Vegan and Build your Own (Regular), $13.99 - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

One of my favourite poke spots! It's fresh and delicious. I'd recommend for a sauce combo their spicy mayo with their citrus ponzu, it's my favourite and I can't ever get tired of it! The fish is fresh and tasty, and the prices are worth for their portions. The service is quick and is like a chipotle, so you can get your food as you order. Environment is friendly and greenery, I like their decor! The parking is parallel and not too far of a walk! read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Build Your Own Regular Bowl - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

See all

I love poke and it's one of my all-time favorite foods so any reviews I make about poke will always be good. Just Poke is actually a good poke bar. They have an large variety of poke toppings and over all good quality ingredients. The atmosphere is also very structure. The vibe of the shop makes it feel like they want you in and out. You go through the line to get you toppings and then get out. I ordered a Build you own custom bowl. Which I recommend just because you can put everything you like into your bowl. But I will tell you that at every location I've been at they do not add a lot of items so I recommend asking them for a good scoop of "whatever you want" because they will be cheap and stingy and add a little scoop. Overall great poke place and would recommend to anyone in the area of one to check it out! read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Build Your Own Regular Bowl (Rice, Hawaiian Poke, cucumbers, avocados, spicy aioli sauce, and crab salad) - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

We come here regularly and I'm not sure why I haven't done a review yet. When you come in there is a line to place your order and you can customize how you want your Poke bowl. First, you would pick what size bowl you want. Regular or large. For the regular, you can choose two types of protein and for the large, you can choose 3. Then you choose the spices and mix-ins you want, then the sauce, and finally the sides. It is a great meal and we usually will pick that up for dinner when we are not in the mood to cook. I think they could work on consistency a little more but that's with training. That's the main reason why I took off a star. The food is great, but sometimes if the staff is a little light or heavy-handed on the spices and sauces, the flavors are not consistent when you come back multiple times. Otherwise, it's a great place to go and get your Poke cravings satisfied. read more

I ordered my food two hours before closing and the food I got looked and tasted old. the avocado was heavily browned and the other vegetables were mushy. The seaweed salad was strangely green as if it were covered in green food coloring. The color bled into the surrounding food and did not taste good. I'm not coming back to this location, but there are other better Just Poke locations in the area I'd recommend. read more

I am hooked. My daughter introduce me to just pokey. The bowl that we had has the salmon in it to build your own and the last two that we've had have been awesome. In the same week we've had three orders this third one which is tonight October 24th. On a Friday night I ordered the same thing. Sadly the salmon was off. I don't know if that was a fluke or if because it's Friday. We're not using fresher salmon but it could have been a lot fresher. The rest of it was awesome and I will reorder but I won't be ordering it on Friday nights. read more

Just poke is a fantastic quick spot to pop in for take out. Their food is tasty and pretty cheap as far as sushi goes. The amount of options isn't super high but i din't think that is too much of an issue. I for sure recommend ordering online because you can select your options way easier. It is similar to any cafeteria style restaurant in that if you don't already have an order in mind it is easy to get lost in the options. read more

Maybe it was bad luck but the rice was soggy (see pic)...very disappointing. My friends bowl had better rice but still soggy. They charge extra ($1 each) for premium toppings like tamago and for extra spoonfuls (even for just corn). I could understand charge for premium toppings but for corn? Anyway, everything else was good, scallop was pretty unique and ingredients in general were pretty fresh. read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Soggy rice - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

Thursday afternoon is usually Poke. We work in Seattle downtown and with WFH we were looking for some poke place closer to our house! This fit in perfect. We usually get tofu and sweet potato. They are so yumm! The sauces are really good and can get real spicy (depending on which ones you go for). The vegetables are so fresh - everything from edamame, corn, cucumber, onions, etc. Dont miss the crab salad :) We get one scoop of both (regular and spicy ;)) I am not a big fan of their seaweed salad, but my husband loves it. I go for Mac salad, which can be refreshing specially when I get some spicy sauces! The Mochis are pretty good too! Our usual favorite is the Blood orange and Passion fruit. Highly recommend this place! read more

I ordered on their app, delicious large spicy crab bowl, it was great! I highly recommend their food and customer service is excellent too. read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

It's "A-OK", AKA 3 stars. It's decent and relatively close to my house, and it's nice to have a poké place close. As others have mentioned, rice portions are huge. Protein (and other toppings) are not. But I found the proteins and toppings tasty (for the most part), in contrast to what some other reviewers felt. Maybe it's a consistency problem. The one item that I didn't find good was the seaweed salad. It was not well made at all, and its taste was not appealing. They do have a good sized menu of pre-designed bowls, in addition to the build your own bowl line. So, if you can't make up your mind when faced with so many choices, pick something from there. One of the things that bugged me most was the farmed Atlantic salmon. For a place that has tent signs on their tables bragging about how local they are and how they pay more for locally sourced ingredients, serving farmed Atlantic salmon is a big slap in the face to its customers. The space is big enough (a few tables). The location is prime, but we didn't see much traffic in the store when we were there. Maybe Totem Lake would have been a better location for this restaurant. Hope they make it. read more

Such a good place for a quick meal! Their miso soup came for free with a check in and they also have happy hour (2-4?) where you can roll a dice to get up to 50% off your order. My favorite is making my own bowl and adding their spicy Thai sauce, it's extremely spicy! They have a variety of options to choose from, and the raw fish tasted fresh. The only downfall was that I felt that the pricing is a little more on the expensive side. Otherwise great ambience and friendly workers :) read more

First off wanna start by saying I would give a lower score cause the service wasn't very good :( nobody said hi to us when we first walked in. But anyway the food was really good! The fish was fresh and the other ingredients were good as well. They have an assortment of proteins, sauces and toppings to choose from. I got the garlic shrimp and spicy salmon. The spicy aioli is on the spicier side so beware of that! But I would for sure come back here :) it's right downtown so you could grab lunch and then go down to the water! read more

Just Poké Kirkland - Build Your Own Bowl (Regular) - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

My favorite poke place! It's delicious from the first bite to the last. I put in a lot of spicy stuff--spicy ahi, spicy crab, and spicy aioli sauces. I think it's the sauces and marination that make it super savory. With the different variety of things I got mixed with the sauces, it really was flavor heaven. A few highlights: The spicy ahi was the perfect soft consistency. Mango brought out a refreshing flavor in midst of the other heavier tasting foods. Spicy crab was a pleasant fit to the mix (it was a good generous portion too). I just felt happy because of all the different variety and content and colors (the picture I have really doesn't do it justice) that was packing into the meal. Left with a happy and full tummy. Also i always love it when a place has its own water station, which makes it really convenient. There's free street parking in front of the place and in all the streets nearby. There's also a public library down the road. read more

Just Poké Kirkland - $12- poke with 2 proteins - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

I moved to Kirkland from Seattle recently and this place is really the only option for poke. I have been here several times now, and the food is usually good, but the staff are not the most welcoming. I have always felt like I'm inconveniencing the staff by being there, even when I go out of my way to be extra friendly. The last time I was there, I asked the woman working if I could have a bag because I was on crutches and couldn't carry my food without one. She rolled her eyes at me and angrily added the bag to my total. If she had asked if I wanted a bag before ringing me up, she could have prevented her own frustration :). Outside of this, I recommend not ordering from here on delivery apps. I ordered a large bowl recently and all of the portions for my fish and add-ones were smaller than they usually are on the regular bowl. They also got my drink wrong and gave me an un-refrigerated one. I will be making the drive out of Kirkland for better poke options moving forward! This place isn't worth it to me. read more

Just Poké Kirkland - two bowls of food on a table - Poke Near Me - Kirkland, Washington

I walked in here skeptical of how good this would be. I was born and raised in Hawaii and therefore had low expectations of the food they'd be serving up. They proved me wrong! The quality of ingredients is good and there are a ton of ingredients to choose from to make your own custom poke bowl. If you don't know what to choose you can look at some of their pre-determined selections that recommend what fish/starch/sauces/toppings to order. I had the ahi tuna, spicy ahi tuna, and salmon (2scoops) in a large bowl with white rice and salad all for under $12. WHAT?! That's so cheap compared to all of the other poke places I've been to in seattle. And it was good too! The masago and sweet onion toppings made it taste like home and the wasabi shoyu sauce was delish. They have free fruit infused water and restrooms here along with some tables, chairs, and bar seating. Service was great, friendly and quick. They also have a Groupon which I used here. Must try! read more

Love this chain, especially this location by Kirkland Waterfront. Always my go to spot when I'm in the area.

Was hoping for the best but ended up disappointed. :( A poke lover myself, the quality of fish just isn't on par with other poke spots. Usually I opt for 1 scoop of ahi, 1 scoop of salmon. The ahi looked pretty unappetizing through the window, so I decided on 2 scoops of salmon. When I got home and tasted the bowl, so many pieces of salmon were too tough/chewy to eat that I tossed over half the bowl. Overall the taste wasn't fresh so we won't be coming back. read more

I absolutely love coming here! The bowls are fresh and delicious and there is a ton of variety in the protein, sauces, and proteins. I come in all the time for a healthy and quick lunch or dinner. The bowls always come out beautiful too. The only reason it didn't make 5 stars is because I find there is a lot of variety in the portion sizes. There is one woman who skimps a LOT on protein, but regardless, I find that sometimes the bowl is only about half full and sometimes it is overflowing (I always try to tip the second group very well!). So sometimes this is enough for a full meal, and sometimes it is just a big snack. Highly recommend taking a bowl town to the waterfront to enjoy! read more

Just Poke is just okay. I tried their Bellevue location a few times before my boyfriend got food poisoning from them which completely turned us off from going back. Then my colleague and I decided to try out their Kirkland location and it was just as mediocre. While the price point is great, the rice was cold and not vinegary like normal sushi rice is supposed to be, the quality of fish was okay, sauces were okay ajtheir veggies didn't look fresh. I won't be back as there are plenty of other options. read more

For a build your own quick grab poke place Just Poke did not disappoint. Lots of options to choose from. Did a mix of brown rice and greens, but love that they had zoodles as an option. Another bonus was that most all of their to go containers were compostable. A few covered tables out front made for COVID friendly dining before a walk along the water. Coming back to try their açaí bowls next. read more

Terrible customer service. Have been here three times. Food is fine, although they're usually out of stock of several options (last time I went, their blender was broken, so no açai bowls).

What a yummy poke place in Downtown Kirkland! We came here to get pick-up since we had plans to eat at nearby Flatstick Pub, and since it was rainy that day the staff allowed us to bring our dog - just as long we didn't eat inside. It was really nice of the staff to allow that, and they were helpful along the way, especially since it was my first time here. I looked at the specialty bowls, which all sounded appealing yet decided to build my own bowl since the options seemed endless. And they were! I ended up getting a large salad bowl, which came with four scoops of protein. The server who was helping me also mentioned that they had spicy tuna that day, which isn't normally on the menu, so I definitely ordered that with albacore (my favorite!) and lots of toppings. The build your own bowl really seemed like the best deal if you like lots of toppings, which I do, so was glad I chose that option. And of course, the food was yummy. I loved the spicy tuna since I'm a fan of spice and I haven't seen this option at other poke places, so thumbs-up for that. The salad they use is spring mix, and I think it's worth it to pay a dollar extra for the avocado, which formed into a nice creamy sauce with the spicy aioli that I chose. It was noms. The large portion is a hefty size, too, and I actually didn't end up finishing my meal. The only minor issue is that I wish the cuts of protein/fish had been larger than it was since I would've liked to taste the fish much more than I actually had in my bowl. But, this is a solid place for poke and can't wait for another location to open closer to my pad in Downtown Bellevue. 'Til then I'll always dine here for my poke fix whilst in Kirkland. And don't forget to check-in on Yelp for a 10% discount. Psh-yeah! read more
