My son wanted something filling, but not heavy for lunch and Poke fit the bill. It reminds me of a Chipotle in that you watch them make your bowl and you can do a preset one or build your own. They had difficulty with their payment system, so we ate our lunch while they figured it out. FYI, they're a cashless business. Food was delicious and tasted fresh. read more

Pokeworks - Yuzu Ponzu Salmon - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I am obsessed with Pokeworks! Their bowls are great value for the price. The poke classic and Serrano aioli are my fav sauces to add on the side. All of their food is super fresh. You end your meal feeling fully satisfied. I wish I could make these bowls at home. They need more locations! read more

Pokeworks - Poke Bowl - Regular (2 Proteins) - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I ordered a salad bowl with two proteins (tuna and spicy salmon). One of my favorite things about Pokeworks is that you can load up on as many sides as you want. I went all out with tofu, kale, edamame, fried onions, cucumbers, seaweed salad, chili crisps, and more. I'd say the salmon tasted a lot fresher than the tuna. I topped mine off with their Ponzu Fresh sauce, which was light, tangy, and perfect with the salmon. Portion size was generous and definitely worth it. I placed my order through mobile and it was ready really quickly read more

The spam Mitsubishi is so awful here.... DO NOT GET IT!!! The insides are semi clean with very noticeable trash and un wiped surfaces. The service is a little below or the same as any other Chipotle place. Come here if there are no other Poke places. read more

Pokeworks - Spit Mitsubi should be the name of this product. - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Came here a year or so ago and they were just ok. Tonight, they were what I would call as pretty dang good! We did a build our own bowl and their Teriyaki Chicken from their Hot Hawaii menu. Both were fantastic! The service was pretty good, nothing to complain about. They seemed a little busy for just one person to be up front, and I waited longer than I would like because of it, but for good food I will tolerate it. The ambiance is where these places could really improve. It has limited seating and is pretty basic. It is not designed for anyone's being excited to eat here. read more

I like to get the salad mix with brown rice as my base. Then I get spicy tuna and spicy salmon. It is not spicy at all, and I love these two fish! You get to choose your own toppings, and the only add ons that cost money are masago and avocado. The workers are really nice, and it's a quiet place to eat with a friend or even alone. It does get pretty expensive, but it's worth going to if you want to eat something cold! For sauces, I mix the sriracha aioli and Pokeworks Classic. read more

I have possibly experienced the worst restaurant ever. The worker who served me : Angelina Chen was so ill mannered and ignorant towards me and her fellow employees. The food was not up to par and poorly made. i found a hair in my food. When i stepped foot in the atmosphere i felt bad vibes around me. Everything about this place gave me the ick, ESPECIALLY the employees. read more

Tried this place for the first time, wanted something "different". Food was fresh and the employees worked fast. I will say, the portion sizes aren't the biggest (got about a teaspoon of Edamame as a frame of reference) but when it's all combined, it's a pretty filling meal. Have the option of rice or noodles as your base with toppings, with upcharges for Avocado etc. If youve never had poke, . Think of it as deconstructed sushi. Overall, I feel like the quality and value balanced out. I went for the spicy tuna and spicy salmon. Was delish! read more

Pokeworks - Spicy Ahi - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

food was mediocre at best, service was bad and there was hair in my food. wouldn't come again.

Let me start by saying that ordering this with a hangover was one of the WORST things I could have ever done. I have wanted to try this food and while it was really good, it didn't sit well with my situation at the time. I loved the flavor of my poke bowl and miso soup. I would definitely try this again on a day where I feel 100%. We ordered through Uber eats and it got here super fast and packaged nicely. The poke bowls are a really good size for the money. Lots of protein so you're not getting ripped off there. You can also mix and match your base so I was able to do half rice and half noodles. read more

Pokeworks - Ahi tuna and lobster Poke Bowl (2 Proteins) - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

I usually really like this place, but recent order was awful. Swimming in sauce and warm fish. Gross.

The spicy ahi bowl is so good!! Always fast and reliable. I always get it to-go and packaging is very sturdy and good if you have leftovers. This is where I've been ordering when I miss Hawaii! read more

I went here with my coworkers. It is in an upcoming location as there are new shops opening up. You have a choice of bowls there is medium which is a choice of 2 meats or large with a choice of 3 meats. There is a custom bowl you can order as well. I got the choice of 3 meats for $13.00. I chose the salad, but you can choose rice or burrito. You can choose any topping you like, but they just give you a small portion like a spoonful. Overall, the poke salad bowl was awesome and spicy. The fish was fresh and good. My wife will definitely enjoy this place, but it is not as good as the one in Folsom. read more

I stopped eating here a year ago, but for some strange reason my kid still likes it and I gave in and ordered her a bowl. Which apparently now they only fill 1/2 way. Ridiculous! Not sure how they're still in business, seriously the worst. read more

1.5* I would not come back. My friend and I came and attempted to do a pickup, but unfortunately their phone app did not work for us to order, so we needed to go in to order. We ordered our food to-go, so cannot speak on the dining in experience, but the establishment itself looked clean. Unfortunately, since the focus is on the food, pokeworks fell short. My friend and I both ordered the large poke bowl each. The proteins we ordered were shrimp, salmon, spicy salmon, and tuna between the two of us. Out of the poke places we have tried, we both agreed that the fish here was the fishiest (not good) we have ever had. This typically indicated that the fish is not that fresh. We usually devour our poke bowls because we are big poke fans, but this one, we struggled with and did not end up finishing. This was not due to the portion size either, the large poke bowl here ended up being comparable to a regular at other poke places that we have been before. I would not recommend, and would not return. read more

Pokeworks - Flavor descriptions - Poke Near Me - Richardson, Texas

Pokeworks is the newest establishment added to the Richardson restaurant row off of Central Expressway. This place is convenient and accessible to anyone living in Richardson as well as those passing through. The restaurant is small. They have indoor dining that could seat a few people. If you prefer to eat outside, you can always head to the shared outside area for the Richardson restaurant row. It is at the far north end of the complex. There are several picnic tables in a nicely laid out area. Pokeworks will pack your items to go and give you either a fork or chopsticks based on your preference. The menu boards provide multiple options. You can build your own bowl, nachos or burritos or you can go with one of the many signature works listed. I opted for the spicy ahi which was good as posted, but I added several items that were not included like avocado, seaweed salad and crab salad. I appreciated that the server was willing to modify the bowl slightly to my desire. Some cool things that stand out at this place compared to others: -Combos - Who doesn't love a combo meal that comes with a main dish, side and drink for a decent price? -Desserts - OMG that have Dole Pineapple Whip! I didn't get it, but I should have. They also have coco mango haupia - another favorite I should have tried. Drinks - They offer ALOHA drinks. Lilikoi was available! These are tough to find on the continent. -Signature works - They have taken the guess work out for newbies who don't know what works well together. Choose from a variety of standard bowls. -Protein Choices - If you don't like fish, especially raw tuna or salmon, you can choose a vegetarian option with no meat or you can have chicken instead. Great for family and friends who get roped into going to a restaurant and realize they really don't like what's on the menu. There is also the option of going to one of the many restaurants in the row and then meeting at an outdoor picnic bench to dine together. This is not my favorite poke place, but I love the location, the price is comparable to other poke places, and they have some cool items I can't necessarily get elsewhere. I will probably return and bring my husband next time. read more

I would have had a great time here if it wasn't for Angelina Chen. She was not friendly and had the worst customer service skills I have ever experienced. The food was bland and had little flavor. read more

The food and service are good, but I'm 86-ing my patronage. 1. Increasingly they are forcing you to use their crappy app. Seriously needs a UX overhaul. It's infuriating to use. 2. Smoothie machine was down at this location today. All other drinks like lemonade have been removed. 3. You think you have points? You'd be wrong. They changed the system and you lost everything you think you had. I'm done with pokeworks. read more

Fresh. Quick service. Great foodi got the spicy tuna bowl and daughter did the build your own. Both were great. Will definitely be back!

The 2 girls working today were very rude!!! I have always had great service, but today was awful.

Really unsanitary staff. Literally just watched her handle money, coins, wipe her hands on her shirt, then make my bowl. I don't trust the bowl I ordered read more

Had it delivered by my work as we had a lunch and learn and paid for by work so it was free to me. I had the bowl with a bunch of fixings but the meal was dry and somewhat tasteless. Will continue to visit my local poke restaurant. read more

Friday night Definitely exceeded my expectations! The Hawaiian has just a hint of spicy, some sweet thrown in. Very good mix of rice, ahi, seaweed and veggies. The two ladies who were working did a wonderful job. Walked me through my options, gave me some solid recommendations and sent me on my way. Thank you! Great job! read more

Don't look any further this poke' place puts in work on their bowls best thing since poke' point closed. They have ALL the true toppings. I once ordered them for delivery never again; I rather go up to really customize my bowl with all the extra add on. The staff supper friendly and helpful. One more thing they have the best watermelon strawberry lemonade. I can't wait for my next bowl read more

I live by the neighborhood nearby but never pay attention to this restaurant complex. I found this place on a lazy Friday night. The food was yummy and fresh. Have to give it to the freshness of my bowl. I had Hawaiian Salmon, half salad and half kale noodles. Thanks for the help from Hans and Justine. It was my first time at this place and I didn't know what to order. They were so helpful and friendly. Definitely will be back to try other bowls that they recommended! read more

Whether or not you like this place will depend on whether you want authenticity or a commercialized experience. Kinda like authentic Mexican food vs Taco Bell. Then you have to judge whether or not the food is good. I can confirm that Pokeworks is more of the Taco Bell variety as far as authenticity goes. This place is for those who "experience" foreign countries by never leaving the resort. I wanted an authentic poke bowls, no frills. The process is not even close. I decided to "make my own bowl" and the employee was confused as to why I didn't want tomatoes, cucumber,, avocados, corn, lettuce,, etc. There was no Hawaiian salt and no limu. There's that. Then I tried a garlic spam musubi. Why did I try the spam musubi? Because in my opinion, you can only find okay spam musubi or really awesome spam musubi in Hawaii. It is so impossible to mess up that even a child in Hawaii can make decent spam musubi. That impossibility does not extend to Pokeworks. Their spam musubi sucks. It has all the ingredients, but the end product is so bad. Spam musubi is supposed to have a juicy texture that collapses and blends together as your teeth pass through the layers from each bite, all without breaking apart. Pokeworks spam musubi is like drilling a hole into the earth and hitting every layer of sand and bedrock. It was all over the place. The spam was dry, the rice was dry, the seaweed was paper. And they made it for me "fresh" as I waited. They could even sell it for a dollar and it wouldn't qualify as a loss leader. It really is just that bad. The only two other things I can say passed the test are the seaweed salad (ocean salad) and the Dole soft serve. However, these come already prepared so it's for real impossible to mess up. The Dole soft serve is to die for. I would recommend it to anyone. If you're not looking for the real thing and just want a place to get your health on, this is a decent option although it would be MUCH MUCH MUCH (x 100) cheaper to buy ahi and make your own. You could create 1lb worth of poke in less time than it takes to take a trip to Pokeworks and stand in that Subway type serving line. I'll rate this place for what it is. A food chain that is rumored to be inspired by authenticity, that caters to Hollywood perceptions, and that capitalizes on consumer ignorance. It is in the same category as Taco Bell, Chipotle, etc. At least those restaurants have good products. Pokeworks is just average and is a 2.5 star, but we can't give half stars so I'll be nice and give it a 3. read more

Food was fresh, delicious. Sadly we came in on a night when they were offering this promo. After ringing everything up we were then told that this promotion "only applied to chicken and tofu" seems like false advertising, no exceptions on the sign. Hmmmmm. read more

Poke is outstanding, great choice and large portions quick service food quality is fine I thought prices were a bit high

I came here on the way to the airport this past weekend as I needed to have something to eat before I left. I was excited to have a sushi burrito because in Cali for some reason, they don't have sushi burritos in my area anymore. I walked in and it was pretty quiet, since there was no customers in there and a gentleman greeted us. My boyfriend ordered his food and my turn was next. A lady came out to help, but I think she didn't put enough rice into the machine, so the machine that makes the rice and puts it on the seaweed got jammed. Another guy came out to help her and he just took the rice that already came out back into the machine. No biggie, but would have been nice to get fresh rice out of the cooker. My boyfriend wanted to pay while I was getting my food, but the person who made his food said, "No you have to wait until she is done before you pay. Okay? I'm guessing he needed to know if I was going to add anything extra that was not already included. To be honest, he could of just straight up asked me if I wanted anything else and my boyfriend could of already paid without me being finished yet. We opened the box of sushi burritos and I got to say, it looked sad. The ones I get in Sacramento in Cali were much bigger than this. The ingredients and the sauce were okay, but the size and how much the sushi burrito fell apart as I was eating it was pretty disappointing. Overall, I think another poke place could be better. read more

I've been here several times and each time I feel underwhelm. The fish doesn't seem fresh - it was ok but not kept well. I think it just sat out in room temp too long (maybe that's what you get if you go late). The salad feels stiff - like it hasn't been properly unkept and maybe purchased a while ago. I don't doubt the sanitation although I think they could do more to keep the food fresh. Also, I think they drenched in too much sauce so it became salty. All that just ends up being a meh experience. I really like the area it is in and on nice evenings, you can bring it outside and enjoy the outdoor. But then again, as nice as this plaza they try to make it, you have the noisy highway to contend with and that doesn't really add to the ambiance. read more
