Located in the southlands by the movie theater. I love poke and this place does not disappoint! Fresh ingredients, lots of options for toppings on your poke bowl. You can even get it in burrito form! If you are not feeling poke they do have some other food options. I've tried their boba too in the Thai tea flavor. It was good! More of a to go spot, not a ton of seating inside. read more

I stopped into Pokémon Men recently because it had been a while since my last poke burrito craving. Unfortunately, this visit left me feeling like this isn't quite the same place I used to love. One of the first things I noticed was the addition of four self-checkout kiosks. While they definitely make ordering faster and more efficient, they also seem to have removed much of the personality and interaction that made the experience feel welcoming. The atmosphere now feels very sterile and transactional rather than a place where you'd want to sit down and enjoy a meal. The bigger disappointment was the food itself. Prices have increased significantly, which I can understand given today's economy and rising food costs. However, the portions appear to have shrunk considerably at the same time. My poke burrito was noticeably smaller than I remembered, and the seaweed wrap seemed too small to properly contain the rice and fillings. The result was a messy burrito that constantly fell apart and spilled everywhere while eating it. For nearly $20, I expected a more substantial meal and a better overall experience. The quality of the ingredients was still decent, but the value simply isn't what it once was. What used to be a fun, satisfying poke spot now feels more like a quick "take my money, here's your food, next customer" experience. I truly hope this location can find its way back to what made it special because I genuinely enjoyed coming here in the past. For now, though, the combination of higher prices, smaller portions, and a less inviting atmosphere makes it difficult for me to justify returning as often as I once did. read more

Best poke I have found in Denver so far. Their spicy aioli and tuna quality are great. The location is great and shop decor has costal vibes. Love this place read more

Stopped by after seeing a movie on a Wednesday evening and what can I say other than they have a variety of items on the menu but we seem to always go for the Poke bowl because the ingredients are so fresh, perfectly diced and full of flavor . The owner is sweet , friendly and really cares about the product she puts out. It really shows in the quality of the ingredients and taste . Give it a try and thank me later ! read more

Love this restaurant. My kids' favorite place to eat at Southlands. It's a little on the pricey side, but that's because the ingredients are fresh and delicious. read more

Hot ramen served in PLASTIC. PLASTIC EVERYTHING, cups, bowls, utensils, so unhealthy. Egg was cold. But the workers were kind and the decor was cute. Didn't try the poke or sushi bowl. read more

Don't recommend getting the ramen or adding extras into your ramen. I don't think it was a $16.50 bowl with of ramen, maybe a $10 bowl. I added an extra egg and never got it. Matter of fact never even saw an egg in mine. My husband got chicken teriyaki bowl and it was worth the money. I wish I could say the same about my ramen. read more

Poke Men - Donkotsu Ramen - Poke Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Let's get the bad out of the way. No matter what map app you use it'll take you to the back of the AMC movie theater where you'll see a bunch of kids smoking out back. Kindly keep driving and turn into the shopping center to find a parking spot. Now we can get to the fun part! Wonderful and upbeat service. I was greeted as soon as I stepped in and while the dining space is fairly small, the ceiling makes it feel expansive. I ordered a spicy ramen that showed up on their menu as Spicy Donkotsu Ramen. Traditionally its spelled Tonkatsu and I definitely couldn't spot any difference. The ramen came out decently hot paired with kamaboko, seaweed, bean sprouts and a half soft boiled egg. Taste, temperature and texture were all present. If I had anymore room I would've ordered more so that only warrants another trip here. Before I left I also ordered a Thai tea and red ben taiyaki. The Thai tea came out a bit sweet and as of this review I'm letting the ice cubes sweat a bit before drinking more. Otherwise it's definitely tasty. The taiyaki came out super filled and glad they left some of the edges on there because that is the best part! Since their namesake has poke in it I will have to return. I can say with confidence the ramen is great and I would like to try their bulgogi bowls as well. What a wonderful Sunday late lunch treat! read more

Really wonderful customer service. My order has never been wrong in almost a year and the one time it was today due to a little mixup, they took care of it! My order was personally delivered by two staff (one of which l'm pretty sure was the manager or owner). They were so apologetic and sweet. My husband and I were so grateful. 10/10 really recommend this restaurant. Not only is the Poke excellent but they have amazing customer service and seem to genuinely care that you eat your moneys worth. read more

I just love poke. So when I found myself hungry post mani pedi, I knew just the place. Away I went to Poke Men, to nosh on all the poke deliciousness! THE SPACE: Poke Men is located in Southlands Mall, to the west of the AMC movie theater. There's plenty of parking nearby. They offer a couple of tables outside to enjoy when the weather is nice and inside they have a variety of seating options including community styles tables and a couple small tables. I really like the glass accent wall that they decorate based on the season. The various stuffed fish had Santa hats for Christmas - so fun! THE EATS: I love that instead of standing at the counter and building your bowl as you tell them what you'd like, you fill out an order sheet ahead of time, and they construct your bowl to your preference. I opted for their regular poke bowl with 2 proteins (ahi tuna and salmon), on white rice, with onion, edamame, spicy shoyu sauce, spicy mayo, crab salad, seaweed salad, pickled ginger, avocado, garlic crisp, and nori. YUM! Everything was so fresh, filling, and delicious. They do offer up ramen and sushi burritos in addition to their poke bowls, but I'm so hooked on the poke, it's going to be hard to switch it up and try anything else! THE SIPS: I'm a sucker for Thai tea. So naturally that is my drink of choice when a poke joint is out of my favorite Hawaiian Sun juices. Darn, COVID supply chain issues. The Thai tea is perfectly creamy and sweet. Make sure to request no boba if you don't want it - they add it automatically. Sometimes I just want my milk teas straight up with no frills, so I wish I knew this ahead of time. THE SERVICE: After a couple visits now, it's safe to say that all the staff is very friendly. During one of my visits, they were clearly understaffed, but they handled their customers well and took care of every one. I don't see my love of poke fading anytime soon, so I know I'll be stopping by Poke Men again. #cantstopwontstop read more

This was my first time trying a Poke bowl, so I didn't know exactly what to expect going in. This is a make your own bowl place, which was interesting. You could check off what you wanted in your bowl to give to the bowl maker, which is a nice touch to make sure nothing is missed. We got two bowls and a dessert to share. The bowls were a little pricier then expected for this level of dining (fast dining on par with chipotle, with option to eat in or take out) but they get a pass given it's fresh fish. For what we got, we were just underwhelmed. My wife has poke a couple times a month and she agreed that it was just an average experience, with better poke out there in the area. The dessert looked good and was tasty, but not enough to bring us back for just that. If you're nearby and craving poke, this would work but might be better to try around. read more

The Taiyaki was excellent and I highly recommend it with sweet Azuki beans, but next time I go, I plan to try it with chocolate. If you've never had Taiyaki, it is basically a stuffed waffle. They cook it fresh, so it takes a few minutes after you've ordered it. The Bulgogi Rice Bowl was ok. The Bulgogi was too sweet, but the serving size was generous. read more

Can't go wrong with any bowl combinations, or at least I haven't had a bad one yet. Fun toppings like hot Cheetos, fish is fresh and all the sauces are awesome. Milk tea drinks are also great. Hopefully one day I'll eat slower to be able to take some pictures. read more

Good options for Boba & best in Southlands. They have popping Boba too! The owner is very nice & friendly.

It was delicious and place was clean. There was Nice variety of items for the poke bowl.

Back to a 4. I called the owner and she apologized for what happened. She asked what she needed to do to make things right. I asked for further training for her staff. She also had me come back to get my correct order. 5 stars for the owner. 4 stars for overall experience. read more

Not the place for Ramen (at least from first attempt). I decided to give this a restaurant a try as it seems new, I ordered the Bulgogi Ramen. It took over an hour to finally get the Ramen ready. When I got it (via delivery, I live only 4~ minutes away from the restaurant). The broth was cold and basically made the whole thing luke warm. The bulgogi was overcooked/burnt and it was a very very conservative amount of it. For $16, which is more expensive than all the other ramen in the Aurora/Greenwood/Denver area, it's a bit of a slap. So yeah, I probably won't order here again but if they do try to improve their function and quality I may give it another try and re-adjust the rating. I do like that it's very close to where I live but it's annoying if it's going to be like this. read more

I ordered take out yesterday and they messed up my order. i paid for two proteins and they just gave me one. I never got the crab salad. they added something way too spicy also to mine. today almost 24 hours after eating it I have been in and out of the bathroom. I probably won't be eating here again. not sure they are holding food properly if I am feeling sick. read more

Was not pleased with my experience. Ramen was not at all flavorful. It was served in a plastic cup. Just mediocre food not worth the price... read more

Poke Men - Mediocre food not worth the price. Hot ramen served in a plastic cup. - Poke Near Me - Aurora, Colorado

Food is awesome just moved from Hawaii and the best poke we've found in the Denver area!

Had Teriyaki Chicken Bowl. Prices seemed way to high comparing to other similar POKE restaurants. Food was fine, no complaints there. But bang for my buck I am going back to my old stomping grounds even though it's a little further. read more

I stopped by here before a movie. Poke bowls had very fresh ingredients full of flavor. Boba tea was delicious. Workers were very friendly. I'll definitely be back! read more

A bit pricy for what you get but the food Itself is super healthy and super Good. Also the drinks and desserts are good. But need a slightly larger portion for the price read more

This is a must visit spot in the Denver area. The variety was great and the food tasted amazing and was so fresh. I got a poke bowl and was amazed by all the choices. I also got a pina colada slush that was great. The staff was friendly. read more

Our go to place for ramen in this area. Great food and very friendly service. I would highly recommend this place!

Ordered 2 protein bowl. Poke-men signature sauce it was delicious. Mixed rice didn't add anything noticeable.

Great ramen and the dessert is even better! I would advise checking it out for the poke too.

This place is GOOD. I frequently get boba and I use Thai tea as a judge of how good a place is. When it comes out as 2 layers you know it'll be good, and it was. Taiyaki was throughly filled with red bean. I will admit that it could've had a bit more flavor but it was still super good. I definitely recommend stopping in. We drove around 30 minutes just to try it! read more

The line can sometimes take up to 30 min and the tayaki takes a while to make but the food is delicious and I would recommend it to a lot of people but I wouldn't recommend going at around 6:45 read more
