The gals and I are out for Poke!
Danielle H.

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!

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

Poke bowl

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! :)

5. Rainbow Bowl

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.

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.

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

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

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

Random little neighborhood joint with a funky flair. Menu is extensive and the food matches the…read moremood! All of our food was amazing. We came all the way from Santa Clarita and we're not disappointed. Past all the namebrand places by the aquarium and came here and we're not disappointed. I had the work burger, which has fried portobello mushrooms. Others in our group had grilled cheese and poutine burger, and Italian burger and the hotdog and the breakfast burritos. No one was disappointed actually, we were surprisingly pleased with our selections. Sleeper items are the fried cheese curds by themselves. Make sure you get these. Also the onion rings are batter dipped. And beyond delicious! Only bummer is the drinks are cans, so if you need more than one drink, be prepared to pay for each can. The food was super delicious!!

We stopped by here because it was late and they were still open. Another reason I wanted to try it…read morewas because they served poutine, and I'm always on the lookout for places that offer it. It was really loud during our visit. I'm not sure if it's always that lively on Friday nights, but it was the weekend of Warped Tour, so there was a lot of music and energy. If you're looking for a quieter meal, this may not be the best night to visit. The food itself was good, but the wait was much longer than expected. We waited almost 40 minutes for our order. Unfortunately, my burger was also made incorrectly. I ordered the Bacon Bleu Burger but was served a different burger instead. Not quite sure what it was, but it had mushrooms and American cheese. Since we had already waited so long, I decided to just eat it rather than send it back. The burgers were flavorful, but they were smaller than I expected for the price, and they don't come with fries. To round out my meal, I ordered the poutine fries. They were decent. The fries were nice and crispy, which I appreciated. My husband ordered the Burger Don Chendo, and that ended up being the standout of the night. I usually don't like spicy food, but this burger had just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but between the long wait, the incorrect order, and the portion size for the price, the experience was a bit hit-or-miss. I'd be willing to give them another try, especially for the Don Chendo burger, but I'm hoping for a smoother experience next time.
