We stopped by for a late lunch and really enjoyed it! The place is super clean and modern inside, and the staff were all really friendly. I was impressed by how much variety they have. It's definitely more than most poke spot I've been to. For the winter time, they even offer warm poke bowls and ramen (which I'll be coming back for!). They also have daily deals. Bonus points for being gluten-free friendly, just give them a heads-up before ordering. We ordered from the signature bowls menu. I got the Pololi, and my husband had the Volcano Bowl. They were both packed with fresh protein and tons of flavor. Portions were generous too! Great experience overall and I'm looking forward to our next visit! read more

Poke Austin - Kumu with some special crunches on top ! - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

Saw this nearby and decided to check it out for the first time since I love poke. I like that they also sell boba drinks. However, they are overpriced and charge more for certain toppings. They also limit the number of toppings you can get. Sashimi doesn't taste that fresh but I like the ube mochi ice cream. There are better poke places in Austin read more

Loved the poke here! The store is small with seating both inside and outside. I got the skinny bowl which came with 2 proteins for $12.99. I think for the size of the bowl it was a little pricey but they filled it up to the brim with toppings. The fish tasted fresh and they had a ton of toppings to choose from. More than most poke places I've gone to. The wasabi sauce is actually spicy and the mango mayo brought some fruity freshness to the bowl. I also noticed they offered different deals throughout the week. It was $1 mochi Monday when I visited. I didn't get one but I will be coming back here again to try out their other deals. read more

Poke Austin - Skinny bowl - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

Poke Austin is quite bomb! I've had it twice now and it really alleviates the poke cravings. They have pretty standard prices, it's like $13 for the smallest size (the skinny) which is what I always get - it's a base (rice, etc) and 2 proteins with 6 sides. Every time I have it I'm aaaalmost full but not quite and have to have a snack or something after but then I'm good. The quality of the fish is pretty good, I like their miso salmon the best. And the staff are always quick and helpful. They also have boba - it's pretty decent too, nothing exceptional but if you have a craving they have options and they will definitely get the job done :) Because it's inside the sunset valley shopping center there is always plenty of parking. Overall I won't be coming here often because it gets expensive buying poke often, but when I have the craving this is one of my go-to spots! read more

The bowls were very small for the price. It tasted good, but esp my husband's bowl that was one of set house bowls was very small for $12.99 was still very hungry. Mine that I had made was a little bigger, but not much. A person doesn't want to pay $13 and still be hungry. Won't go back. They need to fill that small bowl for that price. read more

Some of the best poke i've ever had. The prices are reasonable, portion sizes are good, and the employees are always nice. This is one of my go to places for lunch while home read more

The employees don't change their gloves between orders. I was lucky enough get a nice lady that put on a new pair of gloves to make my order, but the guy that was working wore his gloves into the bathroom and then came back and started making somebody's order. I spoke up and told the lady to ask him to change his gloves and he did, but that's gross and unsanitary. Pretty sure people don't want his urine or fecal matter on their food. Hopefully they'll figure it out. read more

We ate here yesterday for dinner, and very much enjoyed it. We were able to get seated immediately and without a reservation, which was nice. As for the food, it was all delicious! The ono bowl was on point, and I very much enjoyed it. My fiancé also liked her Alani bowl as well. Overall, it was a good dinner experience at Poke Austin. We will be back! read more

Love this place!! My 2nd time here and love trying different variations of their poke bowls. Ono last time was great with white rice and spring mix as a base as suggested by the server. This time I did just white rice and it was too much. The tempura house special is good, but definitely won't go with tempura next time since it takes up so much bowl space and I don't get enough raw. The service is great and they are doing rewards points now, just enter your phone number. If you're on this side of town, try this place for a quick bite. read more

I've been coming here for 3 years, and today I can't believe how bad the food was. Tuna tasted old, and toppings were old tasting too, and the rice-- it was a dry ball in clumps. I think they started off well and went downhill. I won't be coming here again because today I spent $16 ish when I could've had sushi or poke bowl at an actual sit down restaurant. Before it was pretty decent and today it was so bad. read more

Probably one of the worst Poke Bowls I have ever had! The rice was hard and chewy, the proteins didn't taste fresh, the avocado ($2.00 extra) was hard and should not have been served for another 2-3 days. Like some have already noted, the portions are hilariously small compared to the price. A Poke bowl this size is half the price in many other places that I've been. I will not be returning, unless you enjoy disappointment then I certainly would not recommend you going either. read more

Poke Austin - The "Supreme Size" after a few bites - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

A quick intro for those browsing: Poke is a Hawaiian dish comprising of a base, fresh, raw fish, toppings, and sauces. Think of it as the sushi version of Chipotle. Surprisingly, the poke at Poke Austin was pretty good and quite impressive. However, the service leaves much to be desired. The staff seems inexperienced, sticking strictly to their training and providing portions accordingly. During checkout, make sure you monitor what they are noting, as they may charge extra for any toppings that exceed their set limits. read more

This was my first and likely last time visiting. The meal was quite expensive for what we received, which was disappointing. Given that it was my first experience, I expected better customer service. I wasn't given any direction or even a recommendation when I asked for help. The staff seemed disengaged, almost as if being there was a chore. Based on the lack of service, I don't think I'll be returning. read more

Rude staff. I went there today for a poke and the girl didn't understand what I was saying and she was literally screaming with me like " what I don't understand " in a very rude tone. Not coming back ! Not only that , but also very expensive for a very small bowl. Not worthy .. specially the costumer service, never being mistreated in my life like that .. read more

I think I found my favorite Poke spot in Austin. Staff was friendly and didn't rush as I checked out the menu, then walked me through. The amount of choices and different things they had to offer were a bit more than most poke places I've been. The food was fresh tasting and great! They do have daily specials it looked like. They also have a little section of treats and fun things to purchase and a freezer of mochi options. Also, very clean inside and a good amount of seating, actually pretty big inside for a poke place. read more

One of my favorite poke spots, if not my favorite, is this place. They offer a variety of seafood options for your poke, but I personally always go with the Strong Bowl, which includes crab, spicy crab, and king crab. The ingredients always taste so fresh, and you can't go wrong with any of the other bowl combinations they have to offer. Make sure to ask about their daily specials, as they have a promotion every day that I have definitely taken advantage of during my visits! Their boba selection is also amazing, and I suggest you try one of their options the next time you stop by! read more

Easy casual poke place where you can get a pre made bowl or they have all the protein and toppings displayed in front. You can mix and match with different bowl sizes, the smallest starting at $13 (which looks small but could be a full meal) and up. Parking is easy since it's in a huge plaza and there's not a lot of people generally so you can order quickly to go or to eat there. The interiors are kind of lacking I would probably just grab it to go, not really as a place to sit and eat and enjoy your time. Their fish was pretty fresh and they had a wide variety of toppings. I got salmon, crab meat, seaweed salad, tobiko, radish, corn (which was kind of chewy, that's the only ingredient that was not great), cucumber, and nori. The flavor was really good. I got the citrus poke sauce. read more

Very fresh. Loved their spread as well! Had some really cool options for proteins that you don't see at other Poke places and they had good "build your own bowl" deals. They also have boba teas, mochi ice cream, and other international snacks and drinks. Will be back! read more

Depending on what you go for this place might deliver. I've always liked their poke bowls. I used to like their ramen too, but I guess they changed up their menu and you're better off getting top ramen from HEB. One of the workers give attitude but everyone else is pretty friendly. read more

Poke Austin - Create your own strong bowl - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

I was craving poke on my lunch break and decided to order delivery. I paid about $27 total and I couldn't even take more than a few bites out of it due to how fishy the scallops and tuna were! I would usually be more forgiving but paying $27 for a poke bowl I couldn't even eat because none of the proteins tasted fresh is disappointing. read more

Poke Austin - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

This is a solid spot for poke. It's not the best I've ever had but I don't feel totally robbed like at other places in town. Service is always very friendly which is a bonus. Lots of fish options to choose from and most of the toppings you could want. Like most places now, they charge extra from krab mix, seaweed salad, and other ingredients I know can't possibly can't that much. The bowl is big enough to be a meal but of course I wish it were a little bigger. read more

Decided to build my own poke bowl and I will say that I liked how many protein options there were to choose from (more than your typical poke bowl chain). That being said, there were some toppings that surprisingly costed extra that typically are complimentary at other places I go to, such as the seaweed salad costing an additional $.50. I ended up trying their boba tea as well since it was my first time trying it here, and they unfortunately don't adjust sugar levels so I was worried about how sweet the drink would be. The cashier reassured me that it wouldn't be too sweet, so I ended up getting it and I'd say the sweetness is similar to maybe ordering a 70% sugar level beverage at a boba shop. This indeed was too sweet for me since I usually get 30-50% sugar modification. I was also disappointed by the tapioca pearls because they tasted soggy right from the beginning and the texture only got worse the longer I had the drink. I don't have any negative feedback about the freshness of the seafood itself, but I personally would just stick to poke bowls at this establishment. read more

There were no prices or labels so it was very difficult to order. My bowl was $22 when it seemed like it should have been half of that. Extremely awkward service. read more

I imagine this was the worst poke bowl I've ever experienced, still I gave it two stars for effort. Good Value at $19 for a 2 protein bowl, four toppings including seaweed salad and a Japanese beer. read more

Wanted some fresh and spicy so went here and had their volcano bowl! So yummy and spicy. I liked how you can order your food and see all the different items to add in. The staff was also very helpful since I never been in there before. They helped me on choosing the right food for me. read more

Poke Austin - Volcano - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

I usually like my experience at this place but recently it just hasn't been great. I came in for a pick up a few weeks ago and no one acknowledged me and just kept working. It took me 2 minutes of waiting at the register to ask the guy making to go orders if he could help me! Then today I ordered my food to be delivered and they topped my bowl with a super hot sauce that I did not put on my order. It was practically inedible because it was burning my lips. I couldn't even enjoy my bowl! Please pay attention!!! read more

Solid poke option located in the Sunset Valley suburb in southwestern Austin. I've found that poke as a category is very hit or miss depending on where you go. I spent some time scouring around Austin to get a sense for the options when it comes to good poke, and I've landed on this spot several times (and for a while it was my go-to spot). When it comes to poke, I also tend to think there are several categories that an establishment can be graded on, including 1) food quality, 2) protein selection, 3) other add-ons, 4) sauce selection, and 5) overall experience. Generally, I have found this place to have good quality ingredients. I always shake my head at folks who claim different places have more fresh or less fresh fish as I'm always a bit confused how most people can really tell (aside from some horrible, rotten odor). Anyways, all the ingredients I've had here have tasted good. In terms of protein selection, I find this place offers the majority of the protein options you'd expect from a standard poke place--as well as several less common options, such as octopus, unagi, and tamago. Similarly, this place also offers most add-ons that you'd expect with standard poke (e.g., edamame, seaweed salad, onion, peppers, etc.), as well as other less common ingredients (e.g., fukujinzuke, oshinko, etc.). There are plenty of good sauce options here, and to my delight, plenty of spicy sauce options. Finally, I have found the overall experience of coming here to be quite good. Occasionally, it can be a bit slow, but when there is no line it isn't too bad. The staff here are really nice and enjoyable to talk to. Prices are fairly standard for what you'd expect with poke. read more

Poke Austin - Custom bowl - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

Probably one of the most filling and delicious poke bowls in Austin! I ordered a strong bowl and honestly for the price, it was a great deal. This bowl could easily feed 2 people. They served the bowl "subway/chipotle" style where you go up to the counter and go through the line choosing what you like. There were so many options to choose from and they def fill the bowl. The volcano tuna was my favorite. The spicy seaweed salad was amazing! I would definitely come back. Staff was nice and patient. They also have boba! read more

Been going here consistently for around ~2yrs since i've lived in South Austin. Exceptional, customized and personalized service every.single.time. The patience these guys have with me Each of the staff i've ever personally encountered in going here over the last 2 years have been extremely kind, & **helpful af** individuals. Have met the owner a few times- he's made my bowls himself, & is a super humble, warm guy! My fav proteins that i've tried thus far out of their grande seleccion being any of their varied tuna, salmon, scallops, & seafood or lobster salads. They do have a "Popular 6" Menu of 6 pre-built bowls they've concocted (price range from $13.95 - 15.95), but the vast majority of patrons here do the build-your-own-poke-bowl ($ from a starting base of $12.99 - 18.99, depending on the number of between 2-5 proteins you choose). We really hit the lotto with this poke spot, folks, 'cuz i can tell you from a stupid amount of personal experience that all of their food holds up well when you get it for pickup/to-go, AND, **PRO-TIP: They deliver hella fast n fresh ery time on Uber Eats!** Several long, picnic-style wooden tables & benches serve as indoor dining, & i have to say that the dine-in experience is pleasant n peaceful, with a super clean aura y vibe. There's also always plenty of parking available immediately at/outside the front of this lil' resto! I like to go weekly on either Saturday early/later afternoons, or any time Sunday afternoons/evenings to be able to really soak in everything, & take me precious time building my newest meal cocktail with the ever-patient, special employees here! Beyond thrilled to pour n serve y'all the latest, piping-hot cuppa tea (you'll eventually appreciate/see what i did just there;) on their *BIGGEST, NEWEST UPDATE*: They just recently ADDED B O B A to their menu!! And an *AWOOGA* value-add for me re: their new Boba Tea Menu: each boba drink is made with NON-DAIRY CREAMER! As a lifetime self-proclaimed-lactard who loves boba tea, 'tis much appreciated. The boba tea drinks are not only v reasonably priced @ $5.75 a pop, but they're also around i wanna say ~ 16 oz in size! (++protip: you can toss in some extra boba like i do for just an additional 75 centsss) i personally have tried the Meowsical - described on the menu as "A taste of Orange cream blended with ice topped by Rainbow boba" - deliciously refreshing on a hot Texas summer day, & tastes just like childhood in an orange dreamsicle way ! (the Meowsical is the much smaller boba drink i have pictured, *note: it is a smaller size than their usual, as it was for a promo they had going on at the time*) My most recent visit there over last weekend, i tried the (also pictured, which is their normally-sized-boba-drink-for-$5.75) CoCoRainbow - silky in texture with the rainbow boba, and i loved her unique, subtle-but-not-too-subtle-or-overly-sweet coconut flavor! I'm jazzed to try the Purr*fect ("classic milk tea with brown sugar boba"), the HoneyB ("fruity honeydew milk tea with sakura boba" - who the heck has ever heard of sakura boba?!?), and the Chub Chub ("sweet nutty taro milk tea with coconut boba") on my next visits! Wrapping up mi mini telenovela here with several unique offerings this Poke joint has: -- a freezer full o' 18 intriguing, yummo Mochi flavors! They cover the basics with traditional mochi flavors like red bean, coconut, matcha green tea, & caramel. Also have a decent selection of more adventurous flavors from the likes of Jasmine Boba + Cake Batter, to Black Sesame -- 3 bigger standing fridges full of a wide selection of non-alcoholic drinks/bevs, including your standard Coke & Minute Maid products, as well as new/diff/funsy flavors -- An idyllic array of cutesy-tutesy Japanese candies such as Hi-Chews, Pocky Sticks in strawberry + matcha flavors, mi personal fav- Meiji Hello Panda bite-sized cookies with choc-creme-filled-centers, & Japanese snacks like Hapi brand's "Hot" style, Wasabi flavored peas packed wit crunch n fire! -- (Saved the Bestbelow for last!) As of my most recent visit here last weekend, they currently offer the following selection of 9 total **ALCOHOLIC BEVYS**including: 1 Chardonnay (white) + 1 Cabernet Sauvignon (standard house red) by J. Lohr Winery (HQ'd in San Jose, CA with their vineyards in Monterey County + Napa Valley) 2 White Claw Hard Seltzer options of the Black Cherry + Mango flavors 4 Canned, Domestic Beers - my fav option being the McConauHaze IPA (an American IPA style brewski crafted by Twisted X Brewing Co., located not too far from us in #Atx over in Dripping Springs, Tejas); local Austin-based Celis Brewery's "White" Belgian-style Witbier & their (Celis Brewery's) Dubbel Coffee Porter; and Houston-based Karbach Brewery's Cerveza Especial Mexican-Style Lager beer 1 Traditional Japanese Sake, the "Cap-Ace" by Japan-based Gekkeikan Sake Co. with a 15-16% ABV, in a 6.1 oz bottle serving read more

The selections for toppings is off the chart! I super appreciate when I can try something new and they had a few things I'd never heard of. Fish quality was pretty decent as well and multiple options to choose from. Great service and good portions. One of my fav poke spots in Austin! read more

Went in for a quick lunch and found this place next to Orangetheory which was perfect for after my workout. The proteins, bases and toppings selection were great, I went with the Super build-your-own which lets you pick up to 3 proteins. I chose the ahi tuna, salmon and teriyaki chicken. There are raw, cooked, and cooked-warm choices to choose from with the proteins, and the teriyaki chicken fell under the cooked warm category, but when I tried it, it was completely cold so I'm not sure why it's under that category. However, I was pleased with the freshness of the fish and other toppings, they do great with portion size and I was pretty full after finishing about half the bowl. I would most likely come back and try some of their other combinations, I'm glad I found a place that is close by and hits that poke craving, definitely would say it is worth checking out. read more

Poke Austin - Strong bowl - Poke Near Me - Sunset Valley, Texas

Did an UberEats order from their ghost kitchen "I Lava Poke." Ordered two poke bowls with 5 toppings and an hour later I got two poke bowls with 2 toppings. Yup, they didn't put on the edamame, seaweed salad, or crispy onion. I called to talk to a manager and she suggested maybe the UberEats driver ate it? Yeah, sure, she opened both bowls and carefully removed those 3 toppings from both, leaving the salmon, cucumber, and onions in place. Geez, take some responsiblity when you screw up at least. This bowl is inedible. read more
