    Regular Poke Your Way Bowl (~$16)
    Aya E.

    Ordered: Regular Poke Your Way Bowl (~$16): Brown Rice, Ahi Tuna, Salmon, Cucumber, Sliced Onion, Edamame, Pokeworks Classic, Ponzu Fresh, Spicy Mayo, Seaweed Salad, Surimi Salad, Ginger, Green Onion, Onion Crisps, Garlic Crisps Aya's take: Pokeworks was actually the first poke place I ever tried and my love for poke has never diminished since! Since it had opened in my neighborhood, I decided to give it another shot being a self-proclaimed poke connoisseur. I placed my order online and they began making it when I walked in. All the seafood options looked clean, the sauces were tasty, and the toppings were all light & refreshing. It tasted good and was pretty satisfying; however, the same bowl at other poke spots is about $3 less. Side note, I went to grab a cup of water from the corner and was told that that it was only for Spot Dessert Bar. Considering they're under the same roof, it's a bit weird to be "reserving" the water cups for Spot diners only. It's just tap water at the end of the day. Aside from that, it was a good try!

    It's like a burrito baby!

    After getting burgers for the family, I opted for some lighter fare, and was happy there's a Pokéworks in the neighborhood! The staff was a little oblivious to incoming patrons, likely because many patrons seemed to be more interested in the dessert business that shares the space. Anyhoo, I began my order and the employee helping me was pretty patient. I really wanted a burrito, so I chose two proteins (spicy salmon and ahi tuna). I added a bunch of veggies and extras, so she had a thought time getting it together but as usual, I was amazed that she was able to wrap it all up. I had her put the simple ponzu sauce in the burrito but I also ordered extra sauces on the side. I had their cilantro mayo and I HAD to try their new lava sauce. It is AMAZINGLY GOOD! it's tastes like gochujang, but is actually supposed to be sriracha and ghost peppers. It's sweet and salty, and very hot! I love it and would order a pint to put on everything, from cucumbers, to eggs, and everything in between. You really can't go wrong either Pokéworks. Their produce and proteins are fresh, the facilities are immaculate, and everything tastes really good.

    Came here to have some lunch and feed the beast. This place has been open now for about 2 months now and I have been wanting to try it. Right off the bus or train (30th Avenue Stop on the N train) and really convenient in the middle of busy 30th Ave. The place looks beautiful and clean and highly organized. The menu is pretty clear and the food is out & fresh for everyone to see. They even have a dessert spot in the back which is a separate entity from the poke, I ordered the chicken bowl with a sweet sauce and a water, the food was really good and the serving size was great and filling. The price is pretty standard for poke $20 but It's nice to have another one on 30th besides Poke Burrito which is also really good,It's all about choices like Tatiana always said. Wishing them the best because Astoria needs cleaner food options that aren't Fast Food, Burgers or Pizza. Highly Recommend.

    Ate and brought here for lunch by myself while working as a substitute paraprofessional at P.S. 234 Q that I had brought the ahi tuna poke bowl. It tasted great and delicious. The service there was also attentive. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time.

    Nice neat poke place by the Astoria 30th Ave. subway station. It shares a space with Spot dessert bar, another one of my classic dessert favorites. I liked the poke overall. I had a small bowl and selected the lobster protecting, something I don't really see in other poke places and it was really good. The small bowl was just the right portion for me to fill me up; I feel like this is important because I don't want to have too much leftovers because it doesn't taste very good after an hour or so. I was a little surprised they charge extra for Masago now . I've never seen this before. We came on a Friday evening so it wasn't too busy. I ordered my food at the counter and then took it to my seat. The only confusing thing I will say about this place is, because it shares space with Spot dessert Bar, there are designated tables for each restaurant. You also have to finish your poke first before ordering from Spot.

    Volcano bowl (ahi tuna)
    Michelle C.

    PSA the Volcano bowl actually IS spicy and delicious! Rating 7.5/10 on spicy scale (not for the weak). My bowl came out to $17 which is pricey but pretty standard for poké/NYC. What a great idea to share the space with Spot Dessert Bar! Would be the perfect combo! Fav items at Spot are the golden toast and matcha lava cake

    I was excited to hear that Pokeworks was coming to Astoria so I had to check it out after their recent opening! The quality here is good. Hopefully it stays that way. The fish here is fresh and the food is tasty. The employees are also very friendly and enthusiastic. Would definitely be back to satisfy my poké cravings.

    Great addition to the neighborhood - the portions were generous and you can add so many toppings for free! The servers were very nice and welcoming. Fish felt fresh. The spam musubi was tasty, they add some garlic crisps in the middle which is a nice crunchy addition.

    Impressive location and combination of two restaurants Pokeworks and Spot Dessert Bar. Thank you so much for the invite and the food hasn't changed from location to location. Astoria is just as great as Fresh Meadows.

    Neil H.

    Unlike other poke eateries, the options seemed off. something was not quite right for me, and the options were not what I was used to with more fruit options. i have to be balanced and given they were clean and the employees herful a three star review is in order. Nevertheless, I did not enjoy my experience and won't be back!!

    Toni C.

    As an existing customer of their other location in Fresh Meadows (same owners), I can tell you the Astoria location is just as good! It's under one roof along with Spot Dessert Bar. As a local, I can say that Astoria really needed something like this. It's a great place to grab a fresh, refreshing lunch paired with an iced boba tea from Spot. Also, it's conveniently located steps away from the 30th Avenue train stop and a Citi Bike station. the vibes are great and staff is very friendly!

    This place was amazing. The best poke bowl I have ever had. Unfortunately, I don't live in the area but wish I did. This place was great.

I even took the time to reach out to the company after discovering a bug in the iOS app that prevented customers from adding cards or payment methods. The company responded promptly and kindly offered a reward for reporting the issue, which I appreciated. However, after that experience, I began noticing a larger issue: inconsistency. On more than one occasion, items I paid for were missing from my pickup order. Unfortunately, it happened again today. I had to walk back into the establishment to request the missing food, which was frustrating in itself. What made the situation worse was the uncomfortable interaction with one of the employees--I felt as though I was being looked at with skepticism, as if I weren't being truthful about my own order. While I still love the food and believe in the concept, today's order was disappointing. My wrap wasn't assembled properly, fell apart completely, and made the meal messy and unenjoyable. I honestly found myself wishing I had ordered a salad instead. I hope this feedback is taken constructively, because the food has great potential--but consistency, accuracy, and customer interaction truly matter just as much.

I went for the create your own option which gave me 2 proteins. I chose salmon and yellowtail, with white rice, wasabi yuzu sauce, and various toppings. When I took my menu to the register, the manager suggested I try either their crab or seaweed salad as they're both popular options. I went for the crab salad. The total for my order was about $14, a welcome difference from a newer poke spot that charges the same for less than half of what I got in my bowl. I was very satisfied with the flavor and freshness of the fish. The rice was well prepared and I did indeed like the crab salad. I can easily see myself adding Poke Burrito to my rotation of lunch locations.

Me and my girl was looking for a coffee shop that was laptop friendly and closed late since we came after work. I was a bit disappointed that they did not serve any alcoholic beverages as I saw a lot of good reviews on that portion. We came, we sat down on a Saturday night. There was only one person at the front and it seemed she was also managing the serving part so it did get pretty hectic at some point. We decided to order the Budae Jigae (Hot Pot), there is no way to alter the spicy level so for those who love spicy spicy, this is for you. Me and my friend was really disturbed by the fact that we were treated some type of way. Maybe it's because we weren't Korean or? Service was slow asf. It took a really long time for them to serve me my iced strawberry matcha drink. And even longer for the food. It was also hard to tag her down, and she seemed pretty annoyed that we had to ask her for multiple items. We were a party of 2 and she only gave us one set of items. I went again by myself the next day to see if it was better service and it was pretty packed. There was actually 3-4 people at the front but even then it was so hard to get someone to take my order, ask for napkins, for the check, etc. While there was no time limit on Saturday, there was a time limit of 1 hour and 30 minutes on Sunday. would I go again? Maybe, but it's def veering towards the no side.
