    Quick stop for Poke while driving from Seattle to Olympic National Park. We had great service; they were so helpful in recommending toppings and did not skimp on the sauces. They were well knowledgeable on which ingredients were gluten-free. Overall, this as one of the best poke we have ever had! Very flavorful!

    Shared parking with other restaurants, can be a little tight and busy. Restaurant is always clean, poke and other toppings are fresh and never look (or taste) like they have been sitting too long. Lots of options, very reasonably priced. They are very generous with their portions. Friendly staff, do not rush you as you look at the options and decide which you want.

    Sesame seeds on the food from the poke bowl
    Rae S.

    We've been ordering from this restaurant for a while, and I always specify that I have a sesame allergy. Other sushi and Asian restaurants I've been to have successfully accommodated this allergy. The food here is delicious, and we've enjoyed it, but I've been experiencing issues and reactions. I didn't initially connect these reactions to the food because the order always comes labeled with "sesame allergy." Fortunately, my reactions don't lead to anaphylaxis and I don't need an EpiPen, just a lot of Benadryl. However, today I clearly saw sesame seeds in my order. I called and spoke with someone who initially thought I had called the wrong restaurant. I confirmed I had not. Then she asked if I could have sesame oil because the fish is marinated in it. A person with a sesame allergy cannot have anything containing sesame. She told me I needed to call ahead to inform them of the allergy, even though it's noted in the order and written by hand on the bowl. The chef then came on the line and assured me he hadn't marinated any of the fish in sesame oil. I asked about various items in my bowl and was assured there was no sesame, but there were clearly sesame seeds present. I opted to eat the spam musubi instead, but upon further inspection, I found sesame seeds in that as well. It appears that the sesame seeds are in the rice, which is likely the source of the problem. If you have food allergies, I'd suggest exercising caution here because it seems they are not aware of what allergens are present in their foods and may gaslight you.

    My favorite poke spot! Nicely decorated inside and kept real clean, they even have glass between the customers and counter. I really like that they have BOTH brown rice and white rice (love the brown rice). Build your own bowl and have it just the way you want! I go for the spice with spicy salmon and spicy tuna. All the toppings you could want are also there. For a quick and fresh/healthy meal this place is hard to beat!

    My mom suggested I try this place out while I was visiting town for the holidays. She says she stops often and gets a bowl to take home. I wasn't sure what to expect since most poke places I've been to were fancy and usually sit-down and be served affairs. So I was surprised and pleased to see that this place was more of a "fast casual" place where you can order all of your ingredients at the front and take your order with you from there. I had a bowl with a wide variety of ingredients. Proteins I used were spicy salmon as well as tuna. Both very fresh and delicious! Also had a wide array of veggies and other things, including crab mix which always adds a great flavor. I feel that I got a great lunch that completely filled me up. My mom could only eat half of the bowl and took the rest home. Overall this was a great experience with great food and a great healthy choice in the area. The employees were very friendly and accommodating for me as a newbie. Lunch was just below $15 but it was all worth it. I would say this place is on par with Chipotle prices but you're getting a different and more healthier option. I would definitely return!

    Yes please!!

    Good news, this place is still spectacular and the service and wonderful. High quality fish and toppings, complete with a clean and friendly environment, I couldn't ask for anything more :)

    I loved this spot I always have . I have reviewed here many a time . But there was GLASS?!... in my husbands poke bowl He had his usual a poke bowl with double proteins , double tuna double salmon . Seaweed salad , edamame, avacado , cucumbers He said he crunched down on something hard and he spit it out and I thought it was a piece of plastic it definitely was not . It was a piece of chipped glass and then I was worried to eat my bowl only because I was scared to find glass in mine and break a tooth . I have never had this issue before but that was really alarming seeing a chunk of Glass in the food .

    Went here for lunch on a whim, and it was pretty good. I had read in a review that you could get gluten free options and compared it but honestly it was just plain salmon or plain tuna. The portion size for 3 scoops was good and it was fresh. It was quick to get and everything but service left a little to be desired.

    I got a notification that my very old review was being featured so I decided it was time to update.I used to really love poke pop but I don't go here as much anymore. Like everything else since Covid prices have gone up but that's to be expected. If you're going to order from Poke Pop avoid using Door Dash because the portions are considerably smaller when using door dash than when you go in and order. After several experiences with that, I've found I don't have that problem when I order from the other poke spot in the tacoma mall. I still like Poke Pop but I just avoid them on Door Dash. I've always had very professional, and kind customer service here. The establishment is always well kept and clean.The atmosphere is nice and much better than a lot of other grab and go style places. There is a seating area but I usually get it to go.

    2-protein poke bowls
    Kimmy L.

    My friends and I came here last week for lunch. For those who are familiar with the franchise, Just Poke, Poké Pop has basically the same fish choices and toppings. I ordered a 2-protein bowl for $13.99 with half salad and half rice and spicy ahi and spicy tuna. I got all of the free toppings and the poke sauce too. I have to say, the portion sizes, especially the amount of fish you get is pretty small for the price. Additionally, their spicy poke options were very mild and not spicy at all; I even added spicy Mayo as a topping and I couldn't taste any spice. Lastly, I was disappointed by the crab salad as it was simply just shredded surimi without any mayo mixed in with it. Service was fine and quickly put together my bowl. While it was worth a try, I think I can find better poke and more value for my buck elsewhere. Overall: 3/5 for food, 4/5 for service

    Interior

    Lovely ambience with lots of natural light from the glass windows. There is ample seating, and the tables are kept very clean. Delicious poke bowl with generous servings. The fish seems very fresh to me! The menu on the wall clearly states which toppings will incur an additional charge. The workers are very amicable and offer detailed answers to questions about the food and ingredients. I would highly recommend stopping by this fine establishment.

    Ask the Community - Poke Pop

    Are there any gluten free options?

    You can have salad as the base for your bowl. I don't know about their sauces, but everything else is just different types of fish and veggies to top your bowl.

    Is everything raw?

    Nope!! The octopus salad uses cooked octopus and they have BBQ eel and other cooked options.

    What is poke?

    Poke is a raw fish salad served as an appetizer in Hawaiian cuisine, and sometimes as an entree.

I ordered the Connecticut Lobster Roll ($42), which came with warm lobster on a buttery roll and a side of house-made potato chips. The lobster was tender, and the buttery flavor really made the sandwich stand out. We also took a slice of the peanut butter pie ($14) to go, and it was incredibly rich, creamy, and packed with peanut butter flavor. A perfect dessert if you're a peanut butter lover. The only thing I'd love to see is a few more non-alcoholic drink options, but it definitely didn't take away from an overall excellent experience. We'd happily come back and would recommend giving this place a try!
