Poke Bowl
Al N.

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.

Make your own Poke Bowl

This is my favorite place in charleston to get a poke bowl. You can build your own and they have a ton of options to choose from. Service is always friendly and quick. I always go straight there and order by filling out their form, but they also offer grub hub and Uber eats.

Bowl
Vasily K.

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.

Mixed up
Ollie G.

Superb pint of options. Tons of different sauces. They have tobiko and masago and Japanese pickled cucumber and spicy salmon or tuna, Kano salad. Much more options than beech. Very nice people too. Not bored college kids.

Build your own Poke Bowl

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.

raw pinkish gray shrimp which were completely translucent
Ashton M.

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!

Scallop, Mango, Pineapple, Cilantro, Masago, Avocado, edamame, Sushi Rice Bowl, Ahi Tuna, Fried Onions
Dee A.

One of my favorite lunchtime poke spots, Poké Teahouse, does not disappoint. I order the Scallop, Mango, Pineapple, Edamame, Cilantro, Masago, Avocado, Sushi Rice Bowl, with Ahi Tuna, Classic Poke sauce & Fried Onions garnish and 15 minutes later I'm in Heaven!

Thai Milk Based Tea w/ boba
Kenya B.

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.

Riley M.

I love this location so much! It's very cute and one of my favorite quick on-the-go lunch spots for a lighter but satisfying meal. It's always so fresh and delicious! Highly recommend

There were so many to choose from!! I decided on the High Tide bowl and Bek built her own. I figured I'd trust their chef and am glad I did! My bowl was absolutely fresh and delicious! Bek devoured her build your own. I even had enough for a 2nd meal. I topped it off with a little light soy sauce and some Yum Yum sauce from the fridge! It was just as good leftover ! I can't wait to try all of their creations !! We will be back! And by the way, this place is sparkling clean! This building has been several businesses, so GogiBop has done a miraculous transformation!!

I've never been to a Poke Bros, so I have nothing to compare this experience to...but it doesn't…read morematter, because our experience here excellent! I am currently under medical care and my diet is limited, so there are very few places I can go where I can truly enjoy my meal. Poke Bros was PERFECT for both my dietary restrictions and my husbands lack of any! I was able to build my own bowl, beginning with a choice of bases: a variety of rices and quinoa. I choose sushi rice, as did my husband. A few of my toppings were $1 extra, but I was ok with that and the person making the bowl for me informed me each time I chose a topping that cost extra. My bowl was a delicious, fresh combination of sushi rice, arugula mix, seaweed salad, mango, avocado, roe, ponzu sauce and a sprinkling of tempura crunchies. My husband's bowl was sushi rice, seaweed salad, marinated tuna, roe, sesame seeds, and soy sauce. I like that the company prepares the ingredients in small batches, because it allowed for maximum freshness, too. The restaurant was very clean, the service was EXCELLENT, answering any questions and offering opinions when I asked, kindly guiding me through the process of ordering my bowl, and the food was fresh and delicious. It's a bit more expensive than fast food, but MUCH better tasting, healthier, and more flavorful and still less expensive than a sit-down service restaurant. I haven't left a restaurant feeling that happy and satisfied in a very long time! Excellent job by the owners, managers and workers at this Poke Bros location. Thank you for an excellent experience!

They could improve in 2 areas: 1. Price. It should be $1-$2 dollars cheaper. 2. Amount of food. They certainly could fill those bowls up a little more...especially for the price you pay! Overall, this place is fine...but forgettable.

I tried the Eel Avocado, Spicy Tuna, Philadelphia Roll, New York Roll, and their specialty Volcano Roll -- and each one was delicious in its own way. The fish was super fresh, the rice was perfectly seasoned, and the rolls were well-balanced and generously filled. The Volcano Roll was definitely a standout -- warm, spicy, and full of flavor without being overpowering. It's such a cool setup: you can sip on a local beer from the Craft House and enjoy top-tier sushi in a chill, casual environment. The staff was friendly and fast, and it all just felt easy and enjoyable from start to finish. If you're looking for high-quality sushi in a laid-back, unexpected spot, Max Sushi at Community Craft House is a must.

Ok but why not have a sign that tells customers that. The sushi was all rice, I mean it would have fed an army. Quality of fish good, not great.
