Picked my own bowl.
Myrchalyn A.

It was easy finding the place but finding parking was difficult!=( The octopus is delicious , I recommend it. Service was good and my bowl was made fast. I just wish they gave more protein like other Pokémon spots.

The gals and I are out for Poke!

This place makes me laugh! Upon entering, you'll automatically get this Asian feel with all the pandas and bamboo decor. Then your eyes start to wander towards the walls because of the interesting artwork made by their guests and scotched taped to the walls. If you look up, you will be transported to ROME! I love it. It's totally a part of their charm. They were really generous with the amount of Poke and toppings. I got free miso soup and my avocado cuts were just the right consistency. The workers were helpful when I didn't know what toppings to put in my bowl. They reminded me that I wanted crispy onions!! I'm coming back!

Been here twice and the customer service, food portions, and taste is excellent! They offer a variety of sides to put into the bowl and the sauces are bomb. Love the goma and ponzu!!

5 stars, well deserved and earned! :) At first glance it's your standard Poke place, but I was really impressed at the quality and portions vs. price! I came in with my son and figured we would share a large bowl - 4 protein options and whatever you want down the line. They were generous with the protein portions, and it was under $20 with tip for the bowl - and it was enough for both of us to eat well! The ambiance is nice and clean, no fishy smell or anything off putting. The seating is limited, it may get packed at lunch time, no idea, but you're also at the end of Main St., just go walk to the beach and enjoy. ;) I'd most certainly eat here again, and if you like Poke I'd certainly give this place a safe thumbs up! :)

Panda Poke has very fresh and generous poke bowls. We have visited here many times and always leave satisfied. I think their pricing is fair as well. Service is fast and efficient and the place is kept very clean.

5. Rainbow Bowl
Stefan C.

Randomly walking around Seal Beach, I came across this place. I looked it up on Yelp and noticed how good the reviews were, so I decided to give it a go. When I opened the door, there were two people there ready to help and a third one came out with enthusiasm and hospitality. It took me a few minutes to decide what I want, but I settled on the Rainbow Bowl. I added Ponzu sauce and asked for Chili Oil and Spicy Mayo on the side. Upon my first bite, I could tell this place used fresh ingredients. Every bite took me back to Hawaii. The staff consistently checked to make sure we were enjoying the food. I also liked that they had a self-serve water station. It's not a large place but they had enough seating for a few small groups. It has its own parking lot which is useful because it is close to the beach where parking options are slim and almost always taken. If I'm in the area again, this is one place I'll consider for some fresh poke.

Very friendly server great food! And cute vibe :))))I definitely recommend you guys amazing price as well!

3 scoop for $13. Great selection of items and toppings. Portions were phenomenal. Service was extremely fast and kind. Special note: salmon today was so buttery. Melted in your mouth. That gave it the 5 star!

3. Hawaiian Bowl
Noah B.

Spectacular food and incredible service. I forgot my wallet on the table and they came and found me across the street to return it to me 15 minutes later. Give these guys business, they're awesome

3 scoop bowl
Jenn S.

Soooooo gewdddd! Seared tuna and spicy salmon is delicious. Really good portions. I'll be a regular from now on!

custom bowl 3 salmon
Christine Q L.

food 4.8/5 service 5/5 crazy good and cheap poke for 2025. $13.95 for 3 scoops of protein. i did all the toppings except jalapeño and avocado the only thing i would change is to have the sauces mixed into the proteins but they put it on top. this place is different because they have fresh ingredients and the price is decent. highly recommended

We loved the different ingredient options like jicama, mango, cilantro, and jalapeños. It gave a refreshing pop to the standard topping flavor profile of edamame, wasabi, ginger and corn. Also, what a value! A full 3-scoop protein bowl was only $13.95. Hard to find that in other Poke businesses right now. We loved our food and would definitely come back!

Poke Pola hands down is the best poke place around. I have tried a handful of poke places in the…read morearea and nothing else comes close. First you get a good size portion for your bowl. You get three scopes of protein and the fish has always been good and fresh. There is a good amount of toppings to choose from, all included. (Unless you want extra scoops of crab meat and avocado). The sauces are all good, but I go with the Nirvana which has the perfect blend of flavor and spice. It is a bit pricy ($20), but it's worth it.

I went in and was greeted by a nice woman and glanced over the menu and saw it was pretty clear and direct. I ordered the regular size bowl with 3 proteins I did spicy tuna, Aji and yellowtail and then you can add as many toppings if you want, which was my favorite part of the whole experience! The sauces were also good. I think I opted for one of the basic ones and then I also ordered a bowl of miso soup. The whole transaction was pretty quick and everyone there was pleasant and nice and the price wasn't too high either. I got the food to go and ate it when I got home. The only thing I wasn't 100% into was the spicy tuna. It was like the spicy tuna you'd find in a spicy tuna roll and I was expecting ahi tuna with spicy mayo, so that was just a learning experience. The miso soup was ok, and overall I will definitely go back to this spot again. One request: I wish they had mango as a topping, but overall very enjoyable!

There were only 3 workers working during lunch rush hour and some of them seemed a little frazzled (imo). But when it was our turn to order, the servers were really helpful. My husband ordered first, then me. We had 2 different people serving us. The gentleman helping we was very generous on the protein scoop, so I was happy about that. However when it got to my toppings, he gave very little. But I was satisfied with the amount of protein he gave, because some places can be very stingy about how much they give you. I like how they have a set plate such as the Hawaiian bbq chicken and salmon bowl. They also have premade proteins such as the sweet glazed salmon or the tuna luau. They have a variety of choices. The ambiance of this location is nice. There are lots of tables and seats for you to sit and enjoy your meal. My husband and I got ours to go. When we got home, there was too much base for me. I asked for lite rice and my bowl was full of rice. And as mentioned, not enough toppings to my liking. But overall, a good poke place. Definitely a place to check out if you want a variety of selections when customizing your poke.

This is me and my eldest getaway spot when we don't want to eat what the rest of the family is eating.

I'm sure after a full work shift they've heard a certain question more than they'd like to answer but it never shows. They're respectful and polite and is part of the reason we keep coming back. The lobby is always so clean makes it a comfortable environment to eat in. We'll be back, we always are lol

The process for ordering was simple and quick. You wait in line, tell the servers what you want and they put it together on the spot. Price differs depending on the number of scopes of protein.

They have really fresh ingredients and yummy sauces and toppings. My go to is the regular bowl with brown rice and salad. The regular comes with 3 scoops of protein. I do one scoop each of the plain tuna and Hawaiian tuna, and for the 3rd scoop, I alternate between salmon, albacore or shrimp. They offer the salmon plain or Hawaiian style, spicy tuna, as well as tofu. For veggie toppings I get seaweed salad, cucumber, edamame, green onion, crab salad, cilantro, and ginger. My dressing of choice is the ponzu - sometimes I'll even add a light drizzle of eel sauce. For dry toppings I go with furikake and crispy garlic. The last time I went, I tried the shichimi spice blend and it's a new favorite: a perfect blend that combines spice with citrus and nutty umami notes.

However, given that I no longer live in OC, I've made it my mission to try different poké spots in Long Beach, and so far, I haven't been impressed. Poké Bar missed the mark for me. The place is clean but seating can be kind of awkward, especially the tables along the wall. Customer service was almost nonexistent. The kid greeted us with a quiet "hi" and had airpods in the entire time. At minimum, I appreciated the fact that it was actually a build-your-own bowl. You take a slip of paper, check off boxes of whatever items you want, and leave it on the counter for them to prepare. I also appreciate that they don't charge extra for certain toppings, just the avocado. Portions are decent for the price, but taste was meh. My favorite toppings and sides include imitation crab, pineapple, masago, edamame, avocado, furukake, and crispy onions. They had a good majority of these ingredients, but it just didn't taste good. The imitation crab could've been mixed with mayo or something else that would've made it stand out more. We had a choice between seaweed salad and I think a cucumber salad. This was on me, but I should've went with the cucumber salad. I don't like how slimy the seaweed salad is and never get it with my poké. I mainly enjoyed the ahi tuna because it was fresh. I think if they added more of the sauces (think I chose their house sauce and wasabi mayo), it would've been more palatable. I'd consider trying them again if I happen to be in the area and am desperate for a bowl.
