    Service was nice and average, but the fish was not fresh. I feel my heart burn coming. The food was bland as I've tried Poké religiously in my diet. Wouldn't come here again, but have a try!

    Poke Burrito you can customize it

    First time trying Pokemoto Manteca and I honestly went in a little curious because I noticed a lot of yelp reviews were sitting around 2-3 stars. But hey...we all have different taste buds, right? For context, my very first Pokemoto experience was at Pokemoto Petaluma, so I had something to compare it to. I ordered the poke burrito, and for me, it hit the spot. The portion was solid, ingredients tasted fresh, and everything was wrapped well. I like that you can customize it exactly how you want. It satisfied my poke craving. Lots of parking, no stress. Maybe my taste is different from others, but I enjoyed my meal. Sometimes you just have to try it yourself and not let the star rating decide for you.

    This is a new location here in Manteca California! Manteca residents are always excited when a new restaurant comes to town. Official grand opening starts tomorrow but I was eager to try this place out! I love sushi and this is a similar type of food, sushi in a bowl! I got the large build your own bowl and got tuna, lobster, and shrimp as my proteins. They are very careful to give you an exact measured scoop, not heaping. I have ate at the Stockton location before and they also measure out the scoops only they are heaping and not levels off like here. The servers are all very friendly and they provide service with a smile. Parking is plenty as it is in a strip mall. Lots of food options nearby but this one is unique. The ambiance is typical of the chain restaurant and gives off an ocean vibe with coral and aqua colors throughout the interior. I would have given 4.5 stars but half stars not allowed on Yelp so I had to go down to four stars only because I believe the protein portions are a tad small. I will definitely go again and recommend you give them a try for yourself!

    Protein: All Ahi Sauce: Aloha Trio It was a good salad for me. They didn't put seaweed salad when I ordered it. But it's half price.

    The Grand Opening today was a hit during lunch time. It's quite busy but not busy enough yet since it's only lunch time. Office hours and schools aren't out yet so I know dinner time will be busy. It's a good thing I get to witness the opening of this place. Place has cool interior design but not enough tables and chairs to sit. It's too early to review since it's the first day. The only thing I can critic is the glass is way too high to hear customers orders, and the music was a bit too loud. Some staff can't hear my parties orders. One order was supposed to have seaweed salad but only put Kani salad. I hope they train their staff for tomorrow because it'll be busier since it's the weekends. Now check out what we ordered and my reviews.

    Poke Moto did not disappoint! The restaurant was clean and organized. Bright and new. Got right in and they were ready to take our orders. We all got poke bowls tuna and salmon . Lots of mix ins and toppings to choose from. The sauces were yummy and a lot of them. We also tried the chicken miso soup - YUM ! We will def be back. Shout out to Red for some amazing customer service. Would have been 5 stars but needed a little more bang for your buck because it is pretty pricey.

    First off, I am very glad we have a place centered around poke here in Manteca. They have decent options to choose from. If I were craving poke and didn't want to drive to my usual spot in Livermore, I wouldn't completely mind the spot near home. When first walking in, I was welcomed, though when it came to ordering, I will say the service lacked. There were a couple of older people who knew what they were doing, and I bet they were training the younger kids, as the one who helped me. Her customer service could use some improvement as when asked to repeat myself, she went "huh?" or just gave me a blank stare several times through the interaction. I hope this was just due to lack of experience, because I felt uncomfortable from the interaction. I pointed and said a side I wanted to add, and she added the completely wrong item, but I didn't want to say anything as she already put it in my bowl. They have a promotion of 50% off at the moment which was nice, though it was $18.99 for a large bowl (3 scoops) which was 70% rice and very small portions of the sides.. I finished my sides within 5-6 bites and was left with rice, sauce, and a few fish. The taste itself wasn't bad, I just wasn't satisfied by the uneven portions--especially for the price tag. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt and will return in the future, as I hope they are currently working out the kinks and gaining customer service and work experience. But in the mean time, I don't mind the 40 minute drive to Livermore for my usual spot.

    Purchase

    I tried to purchase two poke bowls, and the woman preparing my order had a very rude attitude and provided poor customer service. When it was time to pay, their payment machine displayed an error, but on my end the transaction showed as successful and the amount was immediately deducted from my bank account. Despite showing her proof that the payment had gone through, she insisted that it had not and asked me to pay an additional $37.02. I refused because I had already been charged. I have screenshots showing that the money was taken from my account, yet I never received the poke bowls. Overall, this was a very frustrating experience. It felt as though they were trying to charge me twice, and I would advise others to be cautious when paying and to carefully monitor their bank transactions. BEWARE POSSIBLE SCAMMING!!

    2 fish bones found in poke bowl!

    Staff was friendly and polite. Lots of options for toppings. Fish didn't taste very fresh. Overall taste was bland. Also, 2 fish bones were found in my poke bowl with 2/3 of the bowl left. I don't know if I will be coming back.

    2 large poke bowls and musubis

    As someone from Oahu that now resides in Manteca, here is my take. The place is clean. The staff is also friendly. The portions are small compared to every other surrounding poke spots such as (Stockton and Modesto). I wouldnt use the word stingy like everyone else but its more like (a chipotle server scooping your protein and corporate wants to save money). Rice was a little dry (google sushi rice and what goes in it and use that). Also have sesame oil on its own to add to your other sauces. The musubi's were to salty and was missing something. (Hard to make musubis terrible, easiest snacks us hawaiians make back home). I bought 4 of them. I feel like this company believes that since they are the ONLY Poke spot in Manteca that it can get away with quality. Nope

    I was looking for a nice lil beverage on a hot day and I stumbled across this cafe that I didn't…read moreknow existed in Manteca! They have WAY more than I thought in their menu. I went in for drinks, but I will forsure come back to try something else on the Menu. They have Poke, Sandwiches, Paninis, Smoothies, and more! The person who took our order was SUPER kind and friendly - extremely welcoming place. My partner and I ended up getting two different drinks. He ordered a Passionfruit Smoothie (which was SO yummy, it had the perfect amount of sweetness). I ordered a fruit tea, which kinda tasted more on the healthy side hahaha but still refreshing. YUM!

They have a few tables for dine-in but it's seeming more like a to-go place. Was greeted promptly and with a smile, service was great and the boba hit the spot. I did peep they have breakfast sandwiches and burritos too so for sure have to see what that's about on another visit! Menu was really cute, you can tell they put some effort and thought into trying to make this work. I noticed they have a stamp card too so for sure will be back to support this small business.

For dinner, I ordered the Thai Flavor Hot Soup. It came with Napa Cabbage, Pork Slices, Enoki Mushroom, Brown Beech Mushroom, Vermicelli, Calamari, Fuzhou Fishball, Clam, Mussel, Shrimp, Tempura, Meatball, Imitation Crab Meat, Scallion, and Cilantro. The overall taste was extremely palatable. The Thai broth was so addicting and packed a punch of flavor in every single bite. The abundance of proteins and vegetables also enhanced the dish. The dish was priced nicely at $19.95. For the beverage, I had the large Strawberry Banana smoothie. It was prepared to perfection. I loved the fruity, refreshing taste in each sip. The service was much better during this dining experience, as it was attentive. The interior presented a clean, inviting atmosphere.

Forgot to take pictures of the beverages. The curly fries were really solid. Popcorn chicken was probably my least favorite one, it's not bad, but the seasoning tasted very ginger like. I have to say the best thing was the crepe. It was so delicious, very fresh, the strawberry and bananas were very flavorful. They have other flavors that I will for sure stop by again to try them.
