IMHO...this is the BEST poke place in all of Sacramento. I've never had a bad experience here. Food: everything from the base to the protein to the toppings are fresh Service: the young gentleman who prepared my bowl greeted me as I walked and was very friendly and engaging. Ambiance: k-pop music playing at a nice volume. Not loud at all . Place is very clean read more

Poke Ichii has always been my go to and favorite spot for poke in Natomas, Sacramento and in all of California. I love how colorful the bowls can be :) The fish here is always fresh, and I love the variety of toppings they give. The portions are amazing also, its the reason why I keep coming back! read more

Poke Ichii - Poke! - Hawaiian Near Me - Sacramento, California

As I was on a mission for a decent Poke restaurant and happened to be in the Natomas area, I came across "Poke Ichii" as the reviews were more than generous. Located in the North Natomas neighborhood of Sacramento, this place is in a strip mall at the intersection of Arena Blvd and Truxel Rd. The outdoor shopping center predominantly houses a ton of restaurants complete with a Chinese restaurant next door as well as a pizza place, a coffeeshop, and much more. This place opened its doors back in early-2018 and has seen some fairly positive reviews since. I came here for the first time ever during the afternoon of Saturday 9/14/2024 at around 5:00pm. Much to my surprise, there was not a single customer inside but my guess is that this was right before the dinner crowd. And sure enough, customers trickled in one by one after I had placed my order. The inside is spacious but only has enough seating to accommodate around 5 parties. You will notice the business name is big gold letters while the flooring has modern tiles. I do want to point out that the beverages are located behind the register. They do have a small freezer that sells pre-packaged Durian ice cream that is sold by Maven's Creamery (based in the San Jose area). Going back to the main reason why I came here and that is for a hearty Poke bowl. They offer build-your-own Poke bowls as well as Signature Poke Bowls. Since I was craving something warm, I decided to go with their "Poke Bake". I chose salmon as my protein of choice. I chose white rice and this also included shrimp, crab salad, masago, green onions, spicy mayo, and teriyaki sauce. Since this was a non-raw bowl, it would take roughly 15-20 minutes before it was ready. Sure enough, my bowl was ready in around 17 minutes after my order was placed. Since I decided to dine-in, I took advantage of the comfortable warm summer day at their outdoor patio area. The bowl itself was quite heavy as I could tell I was in store for a good filling meal. There was quite a bit of rice on the bottom and also a lot of crab salad but only small chunks of cooked salmon and very little shrimp. I also think they overdid it with the spicy mayo but this was still an above average meal and I was quite satisfied with how much food was packed in this. I will probably stick with non-raw bowls as I prefer those a little bit more than this. All in all, "Poke Ichii" is one of many above average poke restaurants in the Sacramento area. The young man that helped me was very polite as he was running the register while bringing out everyone's food. Parking is also ideal and they also offer online orders for easy pick-up. And finally, they have generous hours of operation being opened for business 7 days a week from 11am-8pm. With above average food, excellent service, and decent prices, I am giving Poke Ichii a respectable 4-star rating. read more

Poke Ichii is a great spot for your poke bowl needs. What I enjoy most about Poke Ichii is their great selection of add ons for their bowls. This Natomas location is located in a strip mall has ample parking and relatively easy to get to. I've been here a couple of times now and it's been laidback ambience around dinner hour. Service is okay. I always build my own bowl, there's so many options so I'd just suggest exploring and finding what you like most. I like the ponzu sauce X creamy white. As I mentioned there are many add ons to top your bowl, I always get corn and bacon along with the bangers of crab salad, seaweed salad, edamame. Poke Ichii is a quality and reasonably priced poke spot and worth a trip if you're hungry! read more

I ordered a bowl of sashimi, crab salad and sauces in the side. The receptionist called me to confirm the order. Since it was my first time ordering, I missed a few options and she wanted to make sure that I understood. I was beyond impressed with that type of excellence in customer service and the bowl was beyond delicious. The ingredients were fresh and plentiful. I will order again in the future. read more

Checking in, I can't ever get enough of this place. You truly get what you pay for. The food is always fresh and delicious. They never skimp out! I rushed over here and popped in to ask if they were still open at 7:50 and they gracefully took my order and man I am so appreciative they did!!! Thank you poke ichii for making dinner happen for me this evening. read more

This poke place gives the best portions. Service is quick and the menu has many options. We've come here several times and the Asian worker guy makes our bowls very beautifully and deftly. He answered all our questions about the menu. Plenty of seating and there are cute fun bunny decorations around. read more

Wayyyy better service second time around. I was helped by two ladies who were so nice and helpful especially when I was asking for some extra items. Sushi bakes were on point. read more

This is my preferred poke place in natomas. Yes, prices are high but that's just the typical price of poke at this point. They don't charge extra for crab salad or wakame salad which is something I've noticed other shops begin to do so that's good. Staff is always friendly and the place is very clean. read more

I live in Natomas and was having a Poke craving. I have tried Poke Fix but never tried this place. It is located off Arena two doors down from Mountain Mikes. I was going to order on Doordash but decided I needed to see it in person and ordered to go. Arrived around 11:30 on a Monday. After getting over the sticker shock of $17.50 for a regular bowl, I started with a half rice/half salad. The salad had a lot of ice berg vs. leafy greens. Didn't like that part. I did like the great assortment of proteins and BBQ tuna (my fav) was one of them that you normally don't see. I know Tofu is protein for the vegan, but it was $2.50 extra to add whereas most Poke places do not charge. I didn't see avocado? The spicy mayo was not spicy at all. In fact, the whole thing was dry and bland and I added 3-4 other different sauces so I had to raid my kitchen cabinets to make it not so dry. Decent amount in size of bowl and the portions were small on some scoops and then large on others. I also found myself bouncing around back and forth a lot along the line with the items he was asking me to choose. Usually at a Poke place you go in order down the line. I also found it odd that they mix the green onions in the sauce. Usually that is a dry topping. Service was so-so. When I tell you that this is my first time ever coming to your establishment, I feel that you should do your best to make a lasting impression so that I come back. This was not the case so I am not surprised that I was the only one in there. Disappointed. Probably won't be back by choice unless I am desperate. read more

The cute lady that owns it (I think) is the sweetest woman ever (huge crush on her). The poke is fresh and the toppings are unlimited. One price gets you what you want. No up charge for the works. read more

This is by far my favorite poke place. They have so many options for protein and toppings. They are very generous with the portions as well. Crab meat is a topping which is nice since some places consider it as a protein. It's my go to place for a healthy and reasonably priced meal. I've been ordering here every week during lent-- great options for no meat Fridays! I also appreciate that when I put in special requests when I order through the food delivery apps, they always get it correct when prepping my order. read more

Ordered through Uber Eats. My food was ready promptly. I paid for extra protein but still feel like the portions were small for the poke bowl. For my base, I got half sushi rice and half wonton chips. Sushi rice was a bit mushy and some of the wonton chips were soggy with oil. I also got a spam musubi. I like the fact it has egg in it for a bit of a twist but I got the butt end of the spam and it was paper thin on one side so I feel like I got ripped off. Overall, decent poke place but I prefer a different poke place down the street. read more

Been here a few times and ordered through Yelp order now, which makes the order go through Grubhub. Very convenient when you are on a condensed timeframe! Polite staff and positive vibes. $16.50 for a bowl becomes $17.94 with tax. I've enjoyed the bowl each time! Support Poke Ichii! read more

So average I couldn't think of anything clever to write. I popped in on a weeknight, no wait, and was in and out in under 10 minutes. Service was friendly as well. The problem is that the food is lacking a brightness/fresh taste factor. It'll do if you are looking for a quick poke fix. But for me, once is enough. read more

Poke Ichii - Regular Bowl x3 - Hawaiian Near Me - Sacramento, California

My favorite poke place in Natomas! I used to work in the area and this was my go to spot for every poke craving. They always have discounts via their check in offers too, which is always nice. And a reward system!! They def do not skimp on anything here, even protein. And it is literally unlimited toppings. Most times my bowl can barely close, like that thing is jam packed to the brim. So just a tip if you wanna snag a pic of your bowl if you're doing takeout, ask to put the lid on yourself. :) They get you in and out quick, price is reasonable, definitely money's worth, fish is fresh, sauces are great. I'm a big fan! read more

My friend was craving poke so we decided to try this place out. We were not disappointed they have a variety of items that other poke spots don't offer. They had some of your run of the mill choices and some very different choices. The food itself was good and fresh. My only complaint would be they mix your proteins in the sauce which I don't mind at all, its that they don't use enough sauce so everything seems dry, especially when you get down to the rice. I guess I'm just used to places putting a lot of sauce so that when I mix it, it gets evenly distributed. The staff was friendly and they have a few small tables for dine in as well as a few outside tables. It gets busy with phone in and app orders there was a lot of foot traffic for the to go orders while we were there. read more

Phenomenal customer service! First off, the employees deserve five-star recognition for their friendly service. Their efforts are visible; They illustrate hospitality and generosity to each individual/party that walks in through the front doors. Poke Ichii houses amazing employees who offer wide-range options based on your taste buds. My best friend and I visit at least once every two weeks. We wholeheartedly believe the toppings and ingredients are fresh daily and the taste is consistently delicious. Colorful toppings make for a healthy meal. Chill vibes all around. read more

Clean, fresh and nice staff. I ate here twice and would recommend it to anyone looking for fresh poke

Came here on a Saturday night around 7 PM. There was a line out the door, but it moved pretty fast. They have a great selection of fish and baked sushi bowls. I ordered the regular (3 scoops of protein) with all salmon. The salmon was really fresh and the scoops were nice and big. I had trouble finishing the whole bowl. Toppings were fresh, but they were out of green onions :(. I really enjoyed their seaweed salad. I'm kind of picky when it comes to seaweed salad and this was really enjoyable. Staff wasn't rude but also wasn't what I would call friendly. I think they were just focused on getting through the line, which is understandable. There's some outdoor seating, not associated with the restaurant. And a couple tables to sit down at on the inside. I thought this was a great poke option in Sacramento and plan to be back. :) read more

I love going to this place not only is it very consistent which is very important but they are not stingy with their portions which I think is also as important giving that a bowl would cost anywhere from $18-$20 read more

Poke Ichii - Large Bowl - Hawaiian Near Me - Sacramento, California

Poke Ichii is another great poke bowl restaurant in Natomas! They are located at the corner of Truxel Rd. and Arena Blvd, in the same complex as Mel's and Tapioca Express. They opened earlier this year, but I didn't get a chance to try them until just recently. Their prices are pretty standard, $11.50 for a small 3 scoop protein bowl or $13.50 for a large 5 scoop protein bowl. They have a good variety of proteins, including yellowtail, spicy scallops, and bbq albacore, and most importantly, the fish is fresh and good quality. I ordered a large poke bowl with salmon, hamachi (yellowtail), and tuna with half brown rice, half salad base, plus a good variety of toppings. For sauces, they don't have a standard sesame shoyu, but they do have a nice variety of special flavors including spicy garlic shoyu, sesame ponzu, wasabi shoyu, and their house sauce. You can get unlimited sauces or combination of sauces. I chose the spicy garlic shoyu and sesame ponzu...they turned out pretty good. I really enjoyed their topping selection! They do have all the standard favorites... crab salad, seaweed salad, edamame, masago, plus some less common favorites...diced mangoes, pineapples, kim chi, corn, and spicy masago. Even though the poke bowl container was not that large, the lady making my bowl kept piling on the toppings. It was quite impressive to see it all stack up! We decided to eat in the restaurant, which was pretty clean, new, and most importantly, cool on a hot summer afternoon. They do offer water, but they don't put the water out in the public area, which I would have preferred because I wanted to refill my cup of water, but didn't want to ask. They also have soy sauce at the tables, but you have to ask for a condiment container at the counter. And ask for wasabi if you want some. They do have it available, but you have to ask. The service generally was good. I had a question about the octopus, but couldn't really understand the lady's answer. This restaurant also sells Maven's ice cream macaron sandwiches and spam musubi. Overall, Poke Ichii is a pretty good poke restaurant in Sacramento's Natomas neighborhood. All their ingredients are good, but with all the poke places around now, they are just running well with all the good standing poke bowl shops. They do have the Fivestars program and offer discounts through the program. read more

Got a large poke bowl with salmon, spicy salmon, tuna, and yellowtail! Got a variety of toppings including sushi rice, salad, crab salad, maguro, seaweed salad, and more! It was a totally loaded bowl. Although a bit pricey you definitely get a generous portion. Everything was quality, and the spicy shoyu garlic sauce was really nice. The service was great also, and our server answered all our questions and made us great bowls. Would definitely come again! read more

Good portions and great quality. Service is always friendly as well. Definitely my go to place

I'm giving five stars because I honestly have no complaints, the servers are always helpful, they don't rush you, the food is always fresh and yummy. Although, If you are looking for a place to sit down inside this is not it it's more take out /fresh fast food. I'd say for the amount of "protein" they give you the price is pretty decent you're looking at spending around 18-19 for a bowl, but again keep in mind it's plenty of protein and they have a wider range than most poke places I have been to. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious and service is always great! this is our favorite poki restaurant!

Ichii in Japanese means first place. Poke Ichii is just that... First place! I pretty much expected this new addition to the North Natomas area to be like all poke places. You know, you walk in, read the menu, see the same items, pick and choose etc. It was so much better! Poke Ichii does fall into place with starting with the size bowl you would like. You may combine or have just one of the base items; sticky rice, brown rice, salad, or wontons. I selected the brown rice and a few of the wontons. The wontons are crispy and taste super fresh. The rice is made throughout the day, and super fresh tasting. I ordered the three choice protein bowl. So much good stuff to choose from. Poke Ichii offers items that I havent seen at other poke places, such as, ahi, spicy scallops, spicy salmon, and just so much goodness to select from. They have a variety of sauces, and will let you try the sauces so that you can pick whats right for you. I had a combo of sauces, and once mixed with the fish, WOW. Super yum! The add-ons range from crab salad, mango, a variety of veggies, masago, bacon, yes, bacon!, and enough to make your creation unique and tasty. The portions are generous. Is it pricey? Yes. Despite the cost, you're getting a bowl filled with fresh fish, and good tasting items that you've customized to your tastebuds. What I found to be really special about Poke Ichii is the customer service. From the moment that I walked in, to when i left, I felt welcomed. They greeted me when I opened the door, and smiled when they offered to help me. They were patient with my questions, and were happy to suggest combos, and deter me from selecting items that they thought wouldnt be tasty together. They offered tasting of items that i wasnt certain about. Truly great customer service. When I asked if it was okay to take pictures, they graciously agreed. Just super nice people. Since they just opened, they are still in their soft opening phase, and i would strongly encourage you to stop by and give them a try. During the soft opening, they are offering 30% off each bowl. After the soft opening, they will offer stamp cards for each bowl purchase. Your tenth bowl is free. Poke Ichii is located in the same shopping center with other restaurants and businesses, so parking may take a moment to find. You can dine in, but space is pretty limited. I would suggest getting your food to go, and enjoying it at home, or one of the local parks. Super fresh food, and super nice people! They also own a sushi restaurant in South Natomas (Lotus Fusion) so they know food! The poke bowl was really good!! Diners tip- ask for more than one sauce! The more the better. They are also happy to give you extra sauce to go. read more

Hands down my favorite poke place ever. And they only just opened! This place has a decent amount of seating. A couple tables and some counters and chairs along the wall. I got a large poke bowl with yellow tail, albacore, shrimp, spicy salmon and regular salmon for my proteins. I got a variety of toppings but my favorites were mango, avocado, and cilantro. They're very generous with the portions! After getting my toppings, my lid barely fit on my bowl. Noteworthy toppings are bacon! I've never seen it at a poke place. All in all, a wonderful addition to the poke scene in Natomas. read more

I didn't get a picture of the SPAM masubi I picked up because we were at the airport when I finally opened it up. The smell coming out of the bag was amazing because they made them fresh. The TSA agent saw what I had and completely understood. You see, it's extremely hard to find Hawaiian food in a Ohio. The most you can really find is a poke bowl. I want masubi! I want katsu or loco moco. Every time I travel to California, I have to get my fix. If I knew how to run a restaurant, I'd open a Hawaiian joint because people would love it. When I was waiting for my plane, I did sneak one out of the bag while hubby was in the bathroom. It was heavenly. When I come back, I will be trying more on their menu but you can be sure I'll pick up a bag of spam masubi! Clean store and nice people! read more

This was my first time trying this place. I just moved recently to the area. I went with my friend and there were 2 servers. Her server gave her way more scoops of fish. I felt the portions for my bowl were very stingy for the price. I almost was going to pay for extra protein but I didn't feel it was worth the price. Good thing I didn't! My server didn't know what was in the sauces I asked her about and looked annoyed because I asked for 2 sauces on the side. I realized after I got home that my server forgot to even give me my sauces on the side that I had asked for. Also, there was something lacking like another Yelp reviewer said. I feel it is probably the freshness of the toppings and the fish. Overall, I felt it was pricey for the amount of fish and I would rather go to other poke places like Poke Noke which are cheaper and give you bigger portions of fish and also because you can trust the quality of the ingredients. I will probably not be going again unless I'm desperate for food since it is close to me. read more

I was served spoiled fish today and currently dealing with food poisoning. It was over priced to add to the misery. I will never eat here nor recommend this place to anyone. STAY AWAY! read more

The portions were more than enough for two people! I've tried their salmon, spicy salmon, seared tuna and seared salmon and what stood out the most was their seared options. The toppings were pretty typical with masago, mango, edamame, sunomono, seaweed and crab salad, etc. read more

Poke Ichii - Large poke bowl with five flavors - Hawaiian Near Me - Sacramento, California

First time here last time here. Saw the good reviews but now we aren't sure we can believe it All poke ichii did for my craving itch was just poke my itch. More expensive for. "Large" size that looks like a regular. Lower quality fish that needed to be marinated In sauce so the average customer can't taste the low quality. Huge portions of rice and huge toppings but fish was small portion and the scoops of fish were barely a table spoon. The server we got gave two tablespoons per fish but if you ask for double portions they give three scoops instead of four so you actually lose out on your protein. While we do understand it's a business you gotta make money but quality and quantity is low. This place charges more money than the poke place we went last week at Modesto and their large bowl was double the size at ichii and their quality was better. Oh and one more thing it was one hour before closing but the entire store was being sanitized by bleach. My nostrils still feel singed as I type this review. Overall 2/5 unsatisfactory. read more

I like the options. The baked bowl is really good!! For the baked bowl-- I asked for sushi rice& spicy tuna and all toppings. I really loved the taste! I would definitely go again for this. However, I would ask for less sushi rice because I felt that there was too much rice for the toppings. The bowl was very small but actually filled me up!! I recommend trying this out. read more

Jordan was super helpful when I placed my order. It was my first time there (Thurs night) and there wasn't really anyone there so it wasn't busy at all. I want sure what the portion sizes were like. I decided to get the 5 scoops of protein, but 3 would have been more than enough considering that you can pile on the "unlimited toppings". Overall I really enjoyed the poke bowl and will probably try and visit once more before traveling back home. Truth be told, the only reason why I was there, was because I had seen an episode of Shark Tank with Maven's Creamery. All the sharks seemed to rave about the product, but only Barbara was able to cut a deal. I just had to find out if it was really that good and where I could get some. I looked online and found Poke Ichii to be the closest place. After eating my spicy poke bowl, it was very refreshing to bite into this small delight. Overall, it was a great experience and hope to be back before I leave the area. read more

Tucked down Arena and Truxel is a quaint little place to nab some poke: y'know that bowl of rice topped with sliced sashimi and other toppings. A fish pokes its head out of a bowl in between the red letters of "Poke Ichii". Inside is a long rectangular space decorated with white walls, pale tan tiles and wood, and a gold sign on the wall hugging the seating area - a few tables against a long booth against the right wall and window seating near the front. In the center of the place is a J-shaped counter that displays the seafood and toppings ready to be scooped up behind a glass window. Behind that is a beverage fridge as a heat lamp that keeps ready-made musubi warm. Above that are three televisions that display the menu. Build-your-own bowls, signature bowls that take out the hefty decision making, and a few baked specialties make up the menu. A few appetizers and a freezer full of mini ice cream macaron sandwiches help fill out any other cravings you may have besides a bowl of raw fish. I've been able to try a custom bowl, the shellfish bowl, and a poke bake. The shellfish bowl - base, spicy scallop, shrimp, clam, spicy sauce, seaweed and crab salad, masago, bacon, corn, and seaweed chips - ended up being something completely different. By the time it was probably 75% complete, I was then told that they ran out of bacon, clam, and spicy garlic sauce. That would've been fine if I had been told in from the start, but it still tasted pretty good with a primarily sweet taste to the whole. A future visit would have me order the poke bake - a fun baked version of poke - and this place includes a free topping that otherwise would be charged extra at other places. Rice, crab and shrimp salad, masago, green onion, spicy mayo, and house sauce all get a 10-15 minute trip to the oven. The one's here have a generous amount of seafood within its warm housing, a decent amount of spice comes from the mayo, but it primarily has a sweet teriyaki flavor to the whole thing. It's fairly good, cozy, and filling. Poke Ichii is a fine stop for a bowl of the Hawaiian staple. The bowls and bakes have been tasty and the place itself is a nice, clean space. However, the only issue with the experiences have been with the rather timing - it's a bit on the slow side compare to other places - and being told they are out of ingredients after the food's been made and paid for. Not too big an issue, but I've seen some customers and food delivery drivers be less-than-enthused when told they have to wait a bit longer. I give it a great 4. read more
