Absolutely delicious!!!!!!!! I'm so happy I found this place. I used to drive all the way to Temecula whenever I was craving poke, so finding a spot that's about 30 minutes from me is definitely a win. It's still an hour round trip, but honestly, it's worth it! If it were any closer I'd probably eat here every day Everything was fresh, flavorful, and the portions were super generous. My bowl was packed with toppings. Customer service was fast and really nice too, which made my experience even better. The place itself was very clean, spacious, cute, and modern. I also really appreciated that there wasn't any strong fishy smell inside, which made it feel even fresher and more inviting. So glad I found a new go-to poke place closer to home. I'll definitely be back!!!! read more

Poke Lounge - 2 Scoop Bowl - Poke Near Me - Riverside, California

Bianca greeted us when we arrived and was friendly throughout our entire interaction. The restaurant was also clean, which I appreciated. We walked in at 7:37 p.m., and as we were placing our order, we were told they were only accepting takeout orders. This was disappointing since the restaurant didn't close until 8:00 p.m. We easily would have finished our meal before closing. If there's a dine-in cutoff time, it would be helpful to communicate that clearly so customers know before even coming into the restaurant. The poke itself tasted average. My biggest disappointment was the protein portion, which was much smaller than I expected for the price. Overall, the staff was kind and the restaurant was clean, but the dine-in policy and portion size left me feeling underwhelmed. Everything in me desires to leave a two star yet I'd say 3 is fair because of the service. Bianca for the win. read more

​I recently stopped by Poke Lounge in Riverside, and it was a fantastic experience! ​First off, the vibe is great. The restaurant itself looks really nice and has a very pleasant, welcoming atmosphere. The service was also top-notch--the server was incredibly friendly and accommodating while walking us through the options and prepping our food. ​We ordered two build-your-own poke bowls, and the sheer variety of options is where this place really shines. They have a huge selection of fresh proteins to choose from. I highly recommend the spicy tuna; it had a really nice kick to it that I absolutely loved! ​My favorite thing overall, though, was the massive variation of sauces. It was such a pleasant surprise to see so many creative flavor profiles available, which isn't always the case at build-your-own bowl restaurants. It really let us customize our bowls perfectly. ​If you're looking for fresh food, excellent service, and tons of options, Poke Lounge is definitely the spot to go. Highly recommend! read more

I recently started enjoying Poke, and I had great experiences having Poke in the Bay Area and of course in Hawaii! I am from the IE, and Poke Lounge has the freshest, tastiest Poke of all the IE and surrounding areas. The veggies and seasonings plus add ons are also very fresh. They are able to customize your sauces-- I had spicy mayo mixed with the Poke sauce... BOMB.COM! The ahi tuna is super fresh and I can't wait to go back to try the Poke nachos! I had the 4 protein bowl and it was affordable for the amount of food you get! They pack it up, and I appreciate them for that. A really chill place, casual and nice at the same time. Restaurant is clean and the employees were really sweet. 10/10 can't wait to bring my mom here to try Poke :) read more

Poke Lounge - 4 Scoop Bowl... fire - Poke Near Me - Riverside, California

I ordered the 2 scoop bowl with half sushi rice and half salad. As you can see in my picture it was more than enough food for me. My favorite was the marinated tuna I also had salmon but it would be nice if they also had a marinated salmon because the flavor was just so good. The scoop of crab isn't counted in your 2 proteins so that's really nice. They really load up your bowl and the sauces are really good too. The service was very friendly and the place is nice and clean. I loved their chairs it gave the place a modern look oh and they also were playing Hawaiian music which I found it to be a nice touch. read more

Poke Lounge - 2 Scoop Bowl - Poke Near Me - Riverside, California

While working in the area, Poke Lounge has been a reliable spot for some good poke! Most of the toppings are pretty standard, but the quality of the fish, friendly service, and cleanliness make this a place I keep coming back to. *Marinated Tuna: While I'm usually a full-salmon-bowl person, I really like the marinated tuna here! It reminds me of poke in Hawaii, where the fish is marinated and there's less focus on piling on toppings. Definitely worth trying a scoop; it's flavorful and blends nicely into the bowl. *Sauces: The house sauce and ponzu are my go-to combo at most spots for a savory, umami, and slightly sweet mix. *Toppings: They have all the usual poke toppings here! Like most places now, avocado is an extra charge. The staff is efficient, friendly, and the restaurant is clean. While we were eating, someone came in who was new to poke, and the team was so welcoming and patient. It was nice hearing them give advice on what works well in a bowl and really take care of their customers. They also run deals pretty often, so signing up for their rewards system is worth it. The restaurant is conveniently located between a gym and a grocery store, so I like stopping by for dinner and running errands in one trip. It's a great spot for a quick meal, hanging out with friends, or even a casual date! read more

Second time here and enjoyed the Poke again! Got a double Ahi Tuna bowl and it did not disappoint. The fish was pretty fresh and the toppings here really stood out. One thing I did notice was that the sushi rice wasn't as tasty as last time but it was still okay. We got a milk tea since it was pretty hot and surprisingly it was solid as well! The tea was pretty flavorful and had a nice touch of brown sugar. Service was friendly and the restaurant was nice and clean. Look forward to coming here again! read more

I work in the Mission Grove Plaza and needed a which lunch spot. I'm so glad Poke lounge is in this Plaza next to Stater Bros. Parking is easy peazy. I came on a Saturday late afternoon for lunch. There was one couple ahead of us. Staff was apologetic for the wait. I love a good poke bowl where you add whatever you want. My bowl was falling over with all the toppings! I loved my poke tuna. I will be back! read more

Overall, this was just okay. My wife had a poke craving so we decided to just come here and order togo. The prices were basically OC prices so it can be a little higher than your typical $10-15 meal. The 3 scoop bowl came out to be around $19. The portion size was fair but we did have to use the restroom a lot after eating. The salmon and shrimp were fine but the ahi tuna was somewhat questionable. The sushi rice was just plain rice and it was kind of cold and lumpy. The toppings were great though and I love the selections you can do when you put an online order. When picking up, the staff were super nice, and it was clean inside. Since this is the only poke place basically closest to our area, we'll probably be here time to time, but comparing to other poke places in socal, I can't say I would totally recommend this place. read more

Poke Lounge - Great tasting poke bowl - Poke Near Me - Riverside, California

This is hands down my favorite Poké spot! The staff is incredibly friendly and always makes me feel welcomed the moment I walk in. ​The selection for your base is top notch. Finding quinoa as an option was a game changer for me. I am usually an all salad base person, but I am officially a huge fan of their quinoa now. Everything here feels super fresh, especially the fish and protein options. If you are looking for a solid bowl, this is definitely the place to go! read more

Been to most poke joints in Riverside and this place is far my best and go to spot. All of their fish, veggies, and toppings are all fresh.

Honestly, one of my favorite poke places in riverside. They give such large servings which makes the price worth it. Sometimes they even give extra scoops just because. The place itself is super clean and they have macaron ice creams. The employees are always kind and I have gone about 6 times! The quality of their fish is greata s well, it never tastes frozen like some other poke places i have tried jn riverside. read more

I came in last week around 2:30 and it was relatively quiet and relaxing. The food was amazing, the boba could be better but the milk tea was TEA if yk what I mean. The staff was really nice I think her name was Audrianna that was really helpful and recommended me some tasty foods to try. My applause to her . I think this is my new favorite poke place to eat at. I have already told my family and will bring them soon. I wish i was a better writer because I don't think I'm capable of being able to express into words how good this food was. read more

I decided to stop at this poke place on Alessandro in Riverside for the first time. The restaurant was very clean and inviting. There were Hawaiian sayings on the walls which added a touch of nostalgia for those of us who love Hawaii and miss it. The service was awesome and very friendly. The poke was very fresh and my two scoop bowl was delicious. I definitely recommend this poke restaurant in Riverside. If you love supporting local businesses and poke definitely stop by. read more

The food is amazing! The staff was really nice and the inside is very cozy. I am definitely becoming a regular. The poke is the best

My boyfriend and I are always looking for new Poké and Sushi spots here in Riverside that offer both fresh tasting food and warm environments. After stumbling upon this place, we instantly fell in love with the vibes of the restaurant. It is such a cute and cozy place for people to hang out, chat, and just have a good time -- even if it's not busy, the environment is just so inviting. When we first walked in, we were greeted right away and the people working had no problems helping us with any questions we had. One of the workers even let us try a piece of their flavored tuna (SO GOOD!). They also offer to mix the protein & toppings/dressings together which was really cool. The food itself was pretty good. My boyfriend thought it could have been just a little more flavorful, and I agreed. BUT it was still really good and filled us up. We will definitely be going back!! read more

Poke Lounge - 3 Scoop Bowl marinaded tuna, and double salmon - Poke Near Me - Riverside, California

Went here today after a delivery I had. The service I will say is spectacular everyone there was so nice and greeted when I came in. The ambiance was very clean and didn't have any signs of uneasiness. The food is where I would say is a bit lacking, I did read previous reviews saying that the fish was too fishy. I wouldn't agree with that but the salmon was on the older side due to the sliminess and the workers immediately removing and replacing after. The sauces I got were the poke sweet and spicy which was not spicy at all. The sauces there were very non saucy. I would give the food a 5/10 due to the fish issues and sauce. But can't give a low score due to service. read more

When I visit Riverside, I usually crave seafood. Poke Lounge, Pier 76, Market Broiler, and Oishii come to mind. Poke Lounge is always a good choice because I get a large poke salad that easily feeds me twice. The service is pleasant and it's simple to order online or DoorDash to pick up or deliver. read more

UPDATE: Wrote a review yesterday giving 4 stars (see og review below this paragraph), but since then, I had been non-stop using the restroom if you know what i mean. Within a couple of hours...i've since kept having to go. Super disappointed. Might've been the funky marinated tuna i was saying or the salad....ugh. Now that I think about it, the tuna did have more of a fishy aftertaste. Sad. Again, they just opened for the day, maybe things were leftovers from the previous day. Hopefully, they improve their ingredients & that this doesn't happen to anyone else!!! OG initial review: Pretty good I think. Maybe the best poke in Riverside! Got the 3 scoop bowl which was on the pricier side for about 17.99 since I used uber eats. But you do feel pretty full after eating it and can possibly save some for a later meal too, so then not bad for price. They pack it well and don't seem to skimp out on the ingredients. I got 2 scoops salmon and tried the marinated tuna which the latter was ok. The tuna perhaps didn't taste as fresh? But it was still fine to eat. The sushi rice didn't taste as it should, just like regular rice....I did pick up around time of opening. Maybe I'll try the other seafood options next time! A little spice with the spicy mayo and ponzu sauces. read more

10/10 Always hits! Spring mix salad, double scoop marinated tuna, cucumber, carrots, seaweed salad, fried onion, eel sauce, and poke sauce. I think I've perfected my poke order bc I think that was the best one yet. The workers are super sweet, the music is always bangin', and the lounge is super trendy and chill. They are a little pricey so this is a special occasion spot for me but everytime it scratches the poke itch in just the right spot. Love this place read more

O how I love Poké, let me count the ways! Let me start by saying this place is super clean, trendy & service was nice. Proteins seem fresh & well stocked. If you're new to the poke world, this is a great (expensive) place to start. I am always drawn to poke places with quinoa (& kale noodles, but none here). The marinated proteins looked good, but I stick to what I know my 1st time around: salmon, ahi & crawfish. Everything green for the mix-ins, except that weird, sugary seaweed salad. (I don't get it.) Spicy mayo is extra mayo-y, no actual flavor & not much spice. House sauce flavor didn't even come thru in my bowl for me to comment. Avocado was not ripe. Jalapeños were spice-spicey! Wasabi was not. I don't understand how just plain miso soup is $3 but "loaded" with tofu & green onions is $6.50? I finished my food (I always do, I'm from a different era;), especially $29 later. As a self-proclaimed poke connoisseur, this will probably only be a place I come back to if I'm in the area & extra pressed for a healthy option. read more

Such great quality poke! Very clean, great service and the fish is fresh. My favorite spot in Riverside. A must go truly.

Best poke around. They also have an app that lets you order ahead. Service is always great and spot on.

this place was great! super hearty serving of rice and the fish scoops are large compared to some other places I've been! I love that there is an option to mix the fish and all the toppings you want in separate bowl so everything gets that saucy flavor! great selection of toppings and dry seasoning, very helpful service when it came to sauce options. I like my bowls a little spicier so I think next time I'll lean more into the spicy mayo/chili oil/jalepeno and less on the poke sauce-- but I'll be back! ordered: x3 bowl with salmon mixed in ponzu/spicy mayo/chili oil/poke sauce, both crab meats, cucumber, green onion, jalepeno, ginger, furikake fried onion, masago and seasame seed. read more

Food is incredible... fresh and great portions! Gabriella was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable!

This place is great. It's close to work and the staff is always friendly. The food is fresh. Shout-out to Alyssa for always being welcoming.

I'd been wanting to try this place out and it did not disappoint! It's a small place right between Stater Bro's and the Pilates studio. When I walked it, it had a fresh modern feel, was very clean and the staff was friendly and helpful. They also have online ordering available, which I always love for a local pick up place. Everything was fresh, and had great flavor! I went with a bowl of half sushi rice (perfectly cooked) and half salad (mixed greens). I added marinated tuna (I wish it didn't have the edamame added into it since I like that as a topping) and spicy tuna (I think it's the perfect level of spice for everyone too - great flavor but not overly done, since you can always add more heat later) , and topped it with: spicy imitation crab (also loved the spice level here), edamame, carrots, cucumbers, seaweed salad, green onion, cilantro, masago. Over the top I chose their sweet sesame house dressing and a bit of spicy mayo (such a good flavor combination of the two sauces together) and then a bit of sesame seeds. And, since I'm a sucker for anything coffee and/or Ube flavored - I had to grab a cappuccino macron with ice cream in it, and a little container of Ube ice cream. Love this addition to the area and can't wait to come back again soon! read more
