My absolute fav place for lunch! It's the perfect amount of food at the right price. Always so delicious and quick. Super friendly service & very clean restaurant. So spoiled to work so close by! read more

This place is tucked away on a side road from the main street, but is still pretty conveniently located. Inside is clean, but there are random boxes stacked everywhere - it seems like storage space is a bit lacking. I tried a build-your-own poke bowl - I had their salmon and tuna with a bunch of mix-ins / toppings. The fish was decent quality, the toppings options were pretty good and varied, but there was a limit as to how many toppings you could add. Overall, I felt like the quality of the food was not bad, but didn't blow me away either. The flavors were pretty good, and the portion size was sufficient for a meal, but did not overly stuff me. The service was very friendly and quick - it was not very busy when we got there on a weekend evening, so we got our food in a timely manner. read more

This is a go to place for me for lunch. I usually do a pick up order and it is ready within 15 minutes. The staff is super friendly and they have even stayed open during hurricane lockdowns for the downtown residents. The poke bowl is my personal favorite and you can either choose from a preexisting bowls or you can create your own. Not really a dine in place but they have plenty of seating if that is what you are looking for. read more

I'm not sure why people open restaurants just to make them look and operate like a teenagers bedroom. I love poke, but I don't accept substandard and bland meals that cost. Turns out you don't even order a meal here. You just scribble what you want on a note, and they add it up into the machine. I got a pretty regular bowl with minimal sides because you're limited at every single turn. The food wasn't anything spectacular. I didn't finish the half hearted bowl and left to get a better lunch down the street. The interior is just boxes of stuff stacked everywhere, so it feels very cluttered to exist in the space. Not worth it. read more

I have found my new "go to" healthy option when I'm downtown. Poké Tea House is just fantastic. You can build your own bowl or choose from the many options already put together on the board. They make it very easy to order and to choose your own. You basically just check boxes and therefore be as healthy as you choose. The ingredients are so fresh and healthy. Delicious. Love it. It's clean fresh and the staff are super helpful. Parking is a breeze, right across the street in front of an apartment complex. The location is just barely off of King, around the corner from Bourbon and Bubbles. I cannot wait to go back. A total favorite. If you are watching your intake this place definitely gives you total control. I felt revitalized after I ate and not full of stodge. Don't miss. read more

I placed a to-go order of a poke salad (mixed greens) with shrimp and some other veggies and fruits. I was so disappointed to see that the shrimp were not cooked properly. They were grayish-pink and completely translucent. Cooked shrimp should be bright pink and opaque. Due to a risk of food poisoning from eating raw shrimp (and the salad touched by the raw shrimp), I immediately threw away my meal. Shrimp is not a food to be served raw! read more

It wasn't like the usually Thai tea I get from back home but it was okay. I think that they use condense milk to sweeten instead of sweeting the tea and adding the half and half to the tea after. It wasn't like a creamy orange color that I'm used to but it did do the job. read more

The honeydew drink was okay, not too sweet but could taste a little less water down. In my poke bowl I got spicy salmon/tuna, mango, cucumber, salmon, and tamago with spicy mayo. To my surprise, the mango was sweet. They were generous with their portions and the seafood was delicious. I could do a little spicier on everything but that's just me. read more

Amazing service, awesome food and reasonably priced. I went there the first day of stay and it was so good that we went there again today and plan to go on our last day in Charleston. Highly recommended. read more

I think this place has the BEST poke salad/bowl in Charleston for so many reasons: 1. the ingredients are fresh 2. they have a wide selection of vegetables/toppings 3. the seawood tastes fresh and not like the normal fishy seawood taste that you often get 4. the place is clean and doesn't smell like bleach when you walk in (unlike some Poke Bros shops) 5. they slice the avocado for you so that you aren't trying to cut up a half avocado with chopsticks 6. Sesame seeds, fried shallots, ginger/wasabi, and chili spice come complimentary. It's my favorite Poke bowl house in town. read more

Poke tea house is a go to lunch spot. I've tried a lot of poke bowls, and i have to say this is my favorite poke in town. It has a lot of options to build your own poke bowl. It's all fresh and love the sauces. You can also grab some fresh ginger and wasabi to go with it. The bubble tea is good too. The atmosphere isn't anything crazy.. this is definitely a takeout spot. It also does not have any parking so hard to stay for long. Worth it for the food! read more

One of the few fresh and tasty sushi spots in downtown Charleston. The food is always fresh and delicious here, portions are small but satisfying. Parking is always a headache, there's none on the street, I think they have only 2 spots assigned to this business in the underground garage. I asked the staff where their salmon was from, unfortunately, they didn't know...in a sushi place, this is a must, information on ingredients is key. read more

Mmmm poke is my new obsession. I am so crazy about ahi tuna I honestly think I could eat a poke bowl for every meal for the rest of my life. While parking is confusing and non-existent I took my chance to be quick from the old Bi-Lo shopping center which worked even though Poke Tea House has a sign inside asking customers not to park there or you'll get booted. No boot for me, as I was in and out in about 3 minutes! The set-up is Chipotle style where the ingredients are already prepped and making the meal is more of an assembly line. I decided to build my own bowl and grabbed a sheet to check off the items I wanted in my bowl. I included ahi tuna, spicy tuna, cucumber, avocado, sweet onion, mango, and traditional poke sauce on a mixed greens base. Choosing a sauce was the only difficult part for me because I honestly don't know the difference between the sauces. Flavors were all fresh and delicious and I loved every bite. I will definitely return! read more

If you are looking for fresh, customizable poke you are at the right place! Poke Tea House is a delicious, family owned restaurant, and I always experience positive customer support. There are many options for boba tea as well. read more

This poke place was so delicious! The bowl was filling but not heavy, and their options were plenty and fresh. I opted to build my own bowl and got sushi rice, seared tuna (best decision ever), cucumber, avo, crab salad, mango, cilantro, sriracha mayo, and a little ponzu sauce (and the freebie toppings of crispy onions and sesame seeds). I was planning on saving some for later but nope! I ate it all in one sitting. The only downside to this place is that they don't have a location in my hometown. Staff was friendly, too! The passionfruit bubble tea was also so refreshing. Just lightly sweetened, not syrupy like some places. Loved it! read more

Poke tea house is an excellent fresh and healthy option for lunch or dinner. You walk in, grab an order sheet and make your own bowl to your specification. My favorite is the Ahí tuna with mango and edemame. The bubble teas are all on point with different available toppings like exploding bubbles or traditional tapioca. Try the passion fruit tea with lychee Jelly's, its fantastic. Tip: poke tea house has a couple of Parking spots reserved in the condo tower which makes it super convenient. read more

Much to my surprise, my friend found a 2-in-1 poke/boba spot, Poke Tea House, right in Charleston. This wouldn't seem out of place in the Bay Area, but who woulda thunk there'd be this sort of combo in Charleston? So neat. I wasn't in the mood for creating my own lunch bowl, so I opted for the Hawaiian Poke Bowl. The pricing was on par with the portions and with the amount of fish I got. I ordered a hot green tea as well. Way cheaper than Starbucks ($2.50) and it came in a big cup and gosh, it was strong! I loved the cute little succulent plants they had inside as well as the replica white Eames style chairs. There's also a good amount of natural lighting in there so it seems like a good place to study/ready/hang out. read more

Is Poké Tea House the best Poké place I've ever been to in my life? Yes, actually it's so absolutely amazing that I find myself never wanting to leave. As you enter this small establishment in downtown Charleston, greeted by friendly staff members, make your way to the Poké bar to eye all of the tasty ingredients. Fill out the ordering slip which walks you through the options of packing your bowl with deliciousness. My favorite bowl thus far: brown rice, ahi tuna, jalapeño, mango, edamame, sriracha mayo, topped with avocado and spicy salmon. Mmm mmm! Make sure to get the optional fried onions or roasted seaweed as a free topping as well. Finally, you must try a bubble tea (I.e. flavored tea with toppings), they are heavenly. I've tried the blushing peach tea with lychee jelly and jasmine tea with lychee jelly and they're both fantastic. I'm working my way through the list of trying every flavor! Do yourself a favor and get to Poké Tea House as soon as you can... You won't regret it! read more

So I liked the bubble tea so much, I came back 2 days in a row! Although, to be fair, my second visit was because I wanted to try the Poke Bowl so badly, it literally woke me up in the middle of the night (Ok, maybe that was my cat, but to be fair, his breath did smell like tuna). I've tried 2 different bubble teas, the passionfruit fruit tea with strawberry jellies and the honeydew milk tea (also with strawberry jellies). As you can see, I'm a big fan of the strawberry jellies. They have the consistency of something in between jello and a gummy bear, and I really enjoy the flavor, which is nice and sweet (without being cloying). The passionfruit tea was a bit overly sweet for my taste, but would've been very refreshing to sip on outside on a hot day. The honeydew milk tea is my go-to anywhere I go, and it seems like I'm the only person in the world who likes it (at least whenever I've shared my honeydew tea with people, they are generally not a fan). I loved Poke Tea House's honeydew milk tea; the color was bright green without looking fake/chemically enhanced, and the flavor was subtle but pleasant. I drank it way faster than I should have. The poke, being only my 3rd poke experience, was pretty fantastic. I built my own bowl with tuna, sushi rice, avocado, cucumber, cilantro, tomago (which I actually thought was masago, so I was VERY confused when there was an actual egg in my poke bowl. That's my bad.), spicy tuna (that's right, DOUBLE TUNA), seaweed, and their ponzu sauce. So I guess you could say that I took my favorite sushi roll, took it out of the seaweed wrap and dumped it (artfully) into a bowl. It was delicious. I'm not sure I breathed at all while I was eating it, because I just couldn't put it down. The rice is delightfully seasoned, and I love the complimentary fried onions, which offer a nice crunch. TL;DR: Poke Tea House is awesome and I will definitely be coming back! read more

So good man. A little pricey but worth it. Salmon and tuna was fire. Wouldn't recommend getting anything besides poke bowls tho (boba big lame) read more

Why 5 stars? Because the honeydew milk tea with passion fruit juice poppers was a perfect recommendation. --- --- --- Full disclosure: I was sent by some colleagues to go get boba tea and it turned out that I went to the wrong boba place. But I'd already ordered my own drink before I figured this out, so I easily could have come back to my people, shrugged my shoulders, and played the, "I'm a dumby who doesn't know any better" card. But no, that's not the work ethic my parents taught me. So I downed my slush from the other place, walked to Poke Tea House and ordered stuff from here too. While I mainly did it for a colleague who was really looking forward to me bringing her a specific treat, I definitely ordered myself one too. Yes, that is after literally sitting outside of Poke Tea House for a few minutes just so I could finish my boba from Tapio and not be rude by bringing in product from their biggest competitor. Anyway, I am a monster when it comes to what I'm capable of, consumption-wise. Back to the important matter at hand - the recommendation was to order the honeydew milk tea with passion fruit juice poppers. While this isn't something I'd normally order on my own, it sounded interesting enough, so I went with it. And it turns out, Sydney G knows what she's talking about - this was an amazing combination! Now, did my stomach hurt for like an hour and a half after two bobas in a row? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes. Will I do it again? Yes. read more

Sushi lovers rejoice! This place is amazing and I can't recommend this place enough. I first tried Poke in Chicago at Aloha Poke and I was so surprised and happy when they opened up this place as Charleston's first Poke restaurant! It's in Downtown, so my friends and I walked there after we finished shopping on King Street and Charleston Place. First of all, the prices are fair and the staff there is extremely friendly! We came late at night around 8:45 before they closed at 9. The owner was our cashier and really nice. She took our orders and I guess because they were about to close, she offered to give my group of friends free bubble teas which was really nice of her! The Drinks: I got the Taro bubble tea with the Tapioca balls and it was great! Really smooth and not grainy like poorly made bubble tea would be. The Tapioca balls were also cooked right so they were soft and chewy. The Food: I ordered the salmon, spicy tuna, seaweed, kani salad, and scallion Poke. My friends ordered the salmon, eel, edamame, and seaweed Poke plus the salmon, Kani salad, cucumber, and avocado Poke. Personally, we all ordered the "poke your way" because we wanted to make sure that we got everything that we like our Poke bowl, but they also have pre-set Poke Bowls that you can get if you want something safe and quick. All the fish were really fresh, delicious, and blended well with the protein and vegetables that were added. Overall, I'm really happy that Charleston has a Poke place. I highly recommend this place if you love sushi and want a healthy lunch or dinner at an affordable price. I'll definitely be back! read more

We were in Charleston again for the finish point of ARide2Remember 3-day charity bike ride and was looking forward to getting bobo tea like we normally do as a tradition. I looked on Yelp to see what had good ratings and was both surprised and amused when Poke Tea House appeared with our daughter's review. She used to live in Charleston and had blogged about different foods and places to eat at Charleston so after reading her review, we knew we needed to try it. Since Honey hadn't had lunch after his ride, it was perfect that there was poke here. He ordered a poke bowl that had sushi rice, salmon, seaweed, avocado, cucumber, pineapple and spicy salmon. It must have been build your own. He was talking with the staff and understood he had some food allergies which resulted in the order above. Because he needs to avoid dairy (allergy), we stayed away from the milk-based tea which tends to be delicious. He decided on passionfruit tea (since he never had it before) with boba. I debated about getting the coconut milk or the milk green tea but then thought it'd be good to have a non-milk based tea so my darling could try another flavor, so I chose lychee. The place is right off of Meeting Street; not large in terms of capacity size, though has tables and a very high ceiling giving it an open airy space to it. I love the simple clean decor. They have water dispenser right up front at the order counter, free wifi with password, and a counter with the condiments and eating utensils across from the counter near the door. Nice and clean, all of it (including the bathrooms). Yet what gives this a 5 stars is the quality of the food ingredients. Fresh!! The tea was very sweet, and the boba (tapioca balls) were fresh too. Passionfruit has the crunchy small seeds, kinda like you have some sand. The flavor was good though it was surprisingly too sweet for Honey who had ordered it but fortunately he had his sweetheart who loves sweets. My lychee was very tasty too and he ended up having more of that one, so good thing I ordered a nonmilk-based tea. We'd certainly return when we are back in Charleston! read more
