In LA for Anime Expo 2026, my friend and I were staying at the Hyatt House LA - University Medical…read moreCenter and after a full day of flying, we were looking for dinner, not wanting to travel too far from our hotel. My friend wanted me to try something new and since I had never had poke before, All About Poke fit the bill! We walked in around 6:45pm on a Wednesday. We were the only customers inside, but the two young women working behind the counter were bustling making Uber Eats/Door Dash orders, which was fine with me as it gave my friend and I time to look at all the options on the menu. The staff were friendly and quick, so when we were ready to order, it didn't take long before we were cashed out and eating. Inside there were several tables and chairs and since there was no one else inside, we had no problem grabbing a table. It was pretty clean inside and music played over speakers to make sure there was no dead air. For dinner, I ordered a medium poke bowl: brown rice base, three (good-sized) scoops of tofu, House Sauce, topped with avocado (small upcharge), cucumber, cilantro, and the "Whole Shebang" (fried garlic, sesame seed, fried onion, and furikake), with a small sample of wasabi on the side of the bowl and a cup of wasabi mayo for my free, extra sauce, as well as a cherry vanilla Olipop to wash it all down. I am really impressed, the poke bowl was delicious and surprisingly filling! The tofu tasted great, I was glad I added avocado which added a little creaminess to the bowl, and their House Sauce was great! Every ingredient in this bowl came together nicely! But if you need to clear your sinuses, get the wasabi - Wooo, my eyes were watering and my nose was running from that! The wasabi mayo is much milder, thank goodness, and was a nice, small addition. The medium-size was surprisingly filling and I think the price reflected that well. I did want a sweet treat to round out my meal, so I grabbed a vanilla macaron, which had vanilla ice cream in the middle, as well. The ice cream inside was creamy and the macaron had great texture with plenty of vanilla, a nicely sized treat! For my first time having a poke bowl, I think All About Poke did a great job! Friendly and quick customer service, fresh ingredients, and good-size portions, what more could I ask for? I wouldn't mind at all coming back for lunch or dinner.

I would go there after volleyball games, after a long day at the beach or before, and even when me and my mom are simply just craving poke.

The people who serve your food are mainly always kind and down to earth, I'd highly highly recommend it, if you're a poke lover, 10/10!!

The portions are decent, and the poke is on the medium quality range. There are plenty of toppings and options to choose from--I would recommend taking a look ahead of time to see the full amount of options. When we walked in we were not greeted, and I asked a bit more information on how the combos work. The worker seemed visibly annoyed to answer my questions (thus my suggestion at studying beforehand!) and listlessly fulfilled the order after I made my decision. I won't be returning, but for anyone looking for a mid-tier poke place in a plaza with many options (if you have a group), I think it's a decent option!

Both the guy and the girl were incredibly friendly, professional, patient and helped us 3 get exactly what we wanted. I went with a large (4 scoops) poke bowl and my two friends each had a medium. The key element for every single poke shop is the freshness of the ingredients, and this place was no exception. Both the protein and the veggies were as fresh as they could be, chopped/minced/cut to perfection and with a great presentation. The actual store was clean, quiet, and a perfect place to eat a calm lunch. Then we had some of their mochi (there were only two flavors left) which were pretty good. 10/10. Highly recommended place.

Very poor My experience can not be made up and I've concluded my experience and hope everyone reframes from spending money at this business!!

Honu Poke & Grill -- Lomita, CA…read more 1824 Lomita Blvd, Lomita, CA Honu Poke & Grill is a small, cozy Hawaiian-style restaurant located in a shopping plaza near the intersection of Western Ave. and Lomita Blvd. PARKING & LOCATION One thing to be mindful of is that the parking lot is currently undergoing renovations. From the looks of it, they may be installing a Tesla charging station in the center of the plaza. Some areas are fenced off, so parking and navigating the lot may be a little inconvenient until construction is completed. ATMOSPHERE & SEATING The restaurant has a small, Hawaiian-inspired interior with tropical decorations. Seating is limited to four tables accommodating four people each and two additional tables seating two people each. There is a self-service water station, but no soda fountain. Also, there are no restrooms available for customers. My biggest complaint about the dining experience was the indoor temperature. I visited during this October heatwave, and even before noon, the restaurant was already uncomfortably warm. With all the fluorescent lighting turned on and the refrigerated poke display cases potentially contributing additional heat, it felt like the temperature continued rising. I'm not exaggerating when I say I was actually sweating while sitting there eating my lunch! Better air conditioning or ventilation would definitely make the dine-in experience much more enjoyable, especially during warmer days. MENU & PRICING They offer a good selection of Hawaiian-style poke, including Hawaiian Shoyu, Hawaiian Limu, California Hawaiian, Spicy Mayo, Spicy Garlic, Salmon Shoyu, Salmon Limu, Salmon Sweet Spicy, Spicy Garlic Salmon, and Salmon Spicy Mayo. Poke bowls range approximately from $14.45 to $15.95, while poke plates range from $15.45 to $16.45. For this visit, I ordered: * Combo Poke Plate -- Hawaiian Shoyu & Hawaiian Limu * Loco Moco -- $15.95 * Hawaiian Sun POG COMBO POKE PLATE -- HAWAIIAN SHOYU & HAWAIIAN LIMU Both selections tasted fresh, which is definitely something I appreciate when eating poke. The Hawaiian Shoyu had a nice flavor, and the Hawaiian Limu was equally fresh-tasting. The plate came with two scoops of white rice topped with furikake seasoning. Overall, I enjoyed both poke selections, and they were a highlight of my meal. LOCO MOCO -- $15.95 Something worth mentioning is that the Loco Moco is made to order, and I was informed there would be approximately a 20-minute wait. So if you're in a hurry, keep that in mind. The Loco Moco comes with two scoops of rice, sunny-side-up eggs, hamburger patties, and a generous amount of brown gravy. The hamburger patties were smaller, almost like mini slider-sized patties. What I appreciated was that they tasted handmade and nicely seasoned rather than like the typical frozen, pre-made patties. The patties were practically swimming in gravy! Now, the gravy itself had good flavor, but the consistency was definitely on the watery side. I'm talking almost soup-like consistency. If you scooped some up with a spoon and tilted it, the gravy would immediately run right off. Personally, I prefer my Loco Moco gravy to be a little thicker, with enough consistency to coat the hamburger patties and rice rather than just pooling around everything. That being said, the flavor was there, so it wasn't necessarily a bad gravy, just not my preferred consistency. The rice was good, and so were the sunny-side-up eggs. However, the eggs were cooked a little longer than I personally prefer. The yolks were approximately half solid and half runny. When I order sunny-side-up eggs, I like the yolks nice and runny so I can break them and mix everything together with the rice, hamburger patties, and gravy. Still enjoyable, but a slightly runnier yolk would have made it better for me. OVERALL EXPERIENCE Honu Poke & Grill offers a nice variety of Hawaiian-style poke along with other local favorites such as Loco Moco. The Hawaiian Shoyu and Hawaiian Limu poke tasted fresh, and I appreciated the homemade taste and seasoning of the Loco Moco patties. The gravy had good flavor despite being thinner than I prefer, and the eggs were just slightly overcooked for my liking. My biggest issue wasn't necessarily the food but the dining environment. Sitting inside a restaurant sweating while trying to enjoy lunch isn't exactly a comfortable experience. The lack of a customer restroom is another inconvenience worth mentioning. Would I come back? I would consider returning for the poke, but on another hot day, I'd probably opt for takeout rather than dining inside. Good food overall, with some room for improvement, especially when it comes to indoor comfort.

I ordered the 3-protein rice bowl and chose salmon, tuna and spicy tuna as my protein selection. I then covered it up with a bunch of fresh veggie toppings like cucumber, green onions and jalapeños, added multiple sauces and topped it with their crispy onions.

The veggies were ripe and yummy and the sauces made it so much better....I'm such a sauce guy, need sauce on everything. And finally, I absolutely loved the taste of their crispy onions. They were perfectly crispy on the outside, sweet and soft on the inside and they were just so fresh ---this spot makes them in-house and they come to your bowl pretty much out of the deep fryer that you can see towards the back of this spot. What a nice touch, bravo! The place itself is spacious with around 10 tables for dining in. The customer service was solid and attentive. Good vibes out there and good food. Glad I came in and I will be back for more!

**** Very…read moredisappointing experience. The employee serving me had an unnecessarily rude, authoritarian attitude from the moment I started ordering. At one point, I lightly touched the glass while pointing at what I wanted, and she abruptly scolded me with, "Don't touch the glass." There are much more respectful ways to communicate with customers, and the interaction felt unnecessarily hostile. To make matters worse, my poke bowl had noticeably less food than I've received at other 8 Oz Poke locations, and it wasn't nearly as flavorful as the Encino location. The quality and portion were both underwhelming. I was also surprised to find there's an additional fee if you want to sit and eat there. After an unpleasant interaction, a smaller and less flavorful meal, an extra dine-in fee, and then being prompted for a tip, the whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. I won't be returning to this location. If you have the option, I'd recommend going to the Encino location instead.

It's become my go-to neighborhood poke spot when I want something good without having to drive too far. I've tried the spicy ahi, which is pretty good, but surprisingly the ponzu salmon has become one of my favorites. I also really enjoy the creamy crunchy garlic poke. I usually get my bowl with white rice and a side of seaweed salad, and it hits every time. Their Spam musubi is also really good if you want a little snack on the side. The gentleman who is usually there (I believe he may be the owner, but I'm not sure) is always so nice and welcoming, not just to me but to everyone who comes in. Great customer service every time. There's seating both inside and outside, and overall it's just an easy, solid neighborhood spot. Grab a poke bowl, add a Spam musubi, and you're good to go. Another neighborhood gem!
