10/10 experience!…read more The poke bowl was absolutely delicious! The portion was huge and definitely worth the money, especially compared to Pokehana. The popcorn chicken was also amazing, and they gave us such a generous portion! We actually saw another review saying they barely received any, so we wanted to try it for ourselves. We were pleasantly surprised by how much they gave us! I also ordered the mixed berry green tea, and OMG, it was so good! I'm not even a green tea person, but I loved it! Everything was fresh, delicious, and worth the price. We will definitely be coming back!

I've been eyeing this place for a while now whenever I'm in the area and now I finally had the…read morechance to try it out. But after my experience, I think it was best that I stayed away for a while. I came here with a friend and we had a popcorn chicken to share while we had our own poke bowls. I'm going to be completely honest and transparent, but we were disappointed at the portion size. The popcorn chicken was good, they brought it out and it tasted crispy and flavorful. And how much was it? $10. Imagine ten dollars for about 7 small pieces. Never in my years of dining out have I ever felt so robbed. I would pay $6 for this portion size. It was good but $10 quality good? Highway robbery. I've never felt so betrayed by my hometown like this before, everywhere else I liked and had no problem. We got our bowls and we both looked at our tiny pieces of fish in it. We could count them on our fingers. I had about ten small pieces of fish per 3 fish (tuna, salmon, yellowtail). It's funny because I was thinking as I was ordering "3 proteins in a bowl?? What a steal". Little did I know, it wasn't a steal but the exact opposite. A robbery. Actually a steal for them probably, but not me as the paying customer. I was contemplating about giving them four stars because everything tasted good for all our dishes, but four stars mean I'd come back again. I would absolutely not come back because I'd rather go to the Poke chains in the desert because they're priced reasonably and they give more. Also at first I was interested in their Chicken Katsu but there's another Chicken Katsu plate lunch in the valley that has an amazing portion size and tastes delicious. I have no reason to come back here. I wouldn't go back to place I paid over $30 dollars at that was stingy with their portions. This is my first time feeling disappointed for the experience and for what I paid. 3 stars because food tasted good, but I have nothing else to say. I've tried the other poke chains in the desert, and this place is ranked last for best portion to price ratio. I can't speak for anything else on the menu but I just don't understand having "Poke" in the restaurant name and sprinkling the protein like a garnish rather than for what it is. It boggles my mind.

The Build Your Own Bowl is the way to go. You can choose two or three scoops of protein, including ahi tuna, salmon, seared albacore, shrimp, spicy tuna, and octopus, then add rice or greens plus toppings like edamame, seaweed salad, avocado, and mango. The fish was good. It tasted fresh, and the portions were bigger than I expected. My only caution is with the vegetables. Some looked and tasted noticeably fresher than others, so I'd pay attention when choosing toppings. Overall, a little overpriced but okay quality.

Nothing intimidating, just good sushi. Perfect place to surprise my wife at home with sashimi (especially when she's got me in the doghouse). I always call ahead before I go so as soon as I arrive my order is ready for pickup. The lady that rings me up always greets me with a big smile and welcomes me in. They have large order options which is perfect if you are heading to a potluck, bringing something for "the big game", the next big "UFC Fight", or if you and your friends/family just love good sushi. My wife and I love to pre-eat inside the car before heading out somewhere where we know there will not be any actual meals or food we don't care for. I recommend this place.

SHORT ANSWER: Yes, a great small business offering excellent options…read more LOCATION: In a retail / business center with lots of parking. FACILITY: Minimal TI buildout but good enough not going over the top with expense. There are a few seats and tables inside and a few outside, but minimal. MENU: I don't know what to say, I was a bit overwhelmed with choices and then options, this was my first visit so maybe menu is normal... FOOD PREP: Very well done, with care, nice presentation. FOOD QUALITY: Matcha Creme Latte $6.67 with Sea Salt foam with boba. WAITSTAFF: very nice and did not rush me as I had really no idea what I was ordering. OVERALL VALUE: wow, I think a great value and I will return, because it was very good, people were nice, but it also seemed like a great value. TIP: If you're like me, I had never had boba and id not know what it was, well it was great. Look at the menu online and know what you want prior. I would have like to known calories and sugar content but guess its was high...

If you're gonna have lunch in a clothing store, definitely make it Tommy Bahama. Now, to be fair,…read morewhile some locations are attached to a store, this outpost on El Paseo is a completely separate venue, across the street from the clothing and furniture stores, and if you knew nothing about it, you'd never think this lovely restaurant was even related. The vibe is Caribbean chic, with woods and off-white tones to the decor, and a staff that finds the right balance between friendly attentiveness and laidback calm to make you relax and get comfortable. We sat at the bar and were tended to by Mandy (who confirmed she was named for the Manilow song); she was lively and full of suggestions, and kept tabs on us very well. I'll add that the other bartenders were just as friendly when they pitched in, as were the food runners. We were just aiming for a snack, so we ordered the Skillet Biscuits and Lobster Skewers. The biscuits came piping hot and packed with flavor. Flaky and buttery, with a pleasing crown of Maldon salt, they melted in your mouth, and paired perfectly with either of the accompanying spreads. Honey butter was sweet but not too much so, and Pimento Cheese had just the right combination of funk and spice. The Lobster Skewers were light and tasty: the tail of a slipper lobster, split, spiked and grilled over fire, landing with the look and aroma of something that's been through the flames. Served with clarified butter for dipping, the tender lobster meat was fresh and satisfying. But the big surprise was the accompanying Succotash, a vegetable medley I usually dislike and had planned to leave untouched. I decided to try it because it looked so good, and it sure was terrific. Fresh corn and baby squash bathed in lemon and butter, and lightly seasoned, it really was a terrific bite. I should also mention that I ordered a cocktail: the Berry Proper, made with gin, Framboise, lemon and a dash of simple syrup. It was equal parts sweet and tart, and wholly refreshing. It was a light lunch split between two, but it was very tasty, and far more satisfying than the usual sandwich or burger. Kudos to Mandy and the team.
