    Rice balls
    Abel T.

    Let me just say--this is hands down the best rice ball I've ever had. I got the Cali Mix, which has tuna, salmon, and imitation crab. It was only $3.95, and I originally got it because I'm on a light diet. I could've gone with a bowl, but I decided to keep it simple and go with the rice ball. The flavor blew me away. Everything tasted super fresh, and the mix of proteins was perfect. I ended up going back and getting a second one right after. I also tried it with the fire poke sauce, which had a nice kick and a hint of ginger--so good. The customer service was great too. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this place. Five stars, no question. Place is nice and clean. It is a little bit tough getting parking on the weekends, but totally were trying.

    Recently got into poke, and honestly, there's no turning back. I've been to this location a few times now, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I've even stayed to get some work done in the restaurant, which has a chill vibe. I usually go with the large bowl (4 scoops): 2 scoops of salmon, 1 tuna, and 1 Cali mix, then load it up with my favorite toppings. While I've had better poke elsewhere in San Diego, for a chain spot, this place definitely gets the job done.

    Large poke bowl

    Good selection of topping for the poke bowl, lot more than usual places. Super fresh ingredients, , large bowl is big enough to share or save for later.

    Dog that was jumping on counter

    This man brought in his non service dog and was Jumping on the counters multiple times! Instead of the employees asking him to leave the poor scared dog had to wait for the owner to order and pay. And then the other employee went and pet the dog and went back to making food, I was so grossed out I left without being able to finish my food

    Regular Bowl

    I've been traveling around San Diego recently and am always in the mood for some poke, so I decided to try Poki One N Half. There's few poke places that just hit the spot, but it was THAT good. The girl who took my order was very nice; she let me take my time choosing! They have a good variety of proteins (what other place has scallops!!!!??!). The toppings were also very robust. I got a regular bowl with salmon, spicy tuna, and scallops and it was SO delicious. I'm out of the country now, but I'm still craving it. It might just be my first meal when I get back. The location was a little small and parking was hard to find, as you have to street park, but I think it's absolutely worth it. If you're considering poke for lunch, I recommend here! There's a bit of outside seating and indoor seating. If I had the time, I would've sat outside and just people watched. It's really pretty in that area and close to a lot of cute shops.

    Awesome customer off the bat immediately greeted. Great fresh selection of seafood protein. Toppings and sauces to customize ur bowl a must. I've been back many times and I'd for sure recommend this place.

    I drove all the way from Anaheim Hills just to try Poki One n Half, and it was absolutely worth it! The prices were ridiculously affordable for the quality you get. Everything tasted super fresh and high quality. You can really tell they care about their ingredients. I'll definitely be coming back again!

    Came in right after our flight landed in SD and was so glad we got this. Felt like eating something light and not greasy and this hit the spot! The interior is very casual and we saw lots of people coming for pickup. We each got a bowl with three scoops and we were stuffed. The team was friendly and service was quick. Super fresh and lots of veggies with unlimited toppings!

    Been here a couple times and it could get busy. I feel like there short staff sometimes but they make it work. With the influx of ordering online and helping out customers. The salmon is my usually go to and it doesn't disappoint. All the sauces are pretty good and I can't complain on the style of poke bowl. The spicy mayo, fire and OG are my main sauces. I will keep coming here. The portions are off the charts here they don't skimp out on the proteins. Shout out to the workers there for hooking me up with a fat bowl!!!

    Small salmon bowl
    Emily S.

    Stopped in for a quick lunch because I was craving poke. There was one person working who seemed to manage the small line that just went through and the orders online that were coming in. I ordered a small bowl with salmon, and was alarmed when the total cost came to $17 after tax. As I understand it, the amount of fix ins are the same between a small, medium, and large bowl, but the amount of scoops of fish is different. I wish this spot had a small with bowl with less fix ins that you can buy for less money, between $10-$12 seems reasonable. The amount of food I got for a small bowl was a ton and was more than I wanted, but had pretty good flavor. For the amount of sides and rice you get, the ratio of fish seems very small, so I'd check out this spot if you want less poke and more sides with your meal. Other than the food, the place itself was extremely loud. I wanted to eat it there, but had to eat it outside because it was just so loud.

    a. Small Bowl with salmon
    Loren H.

    My go to poke! Fish is very fresh. A lot of options for toppings. Is it authentic Hawaiian poke? No. But that's not why you come here. I can't comment on service because I've had friends pick it up for me both times I've had it, but from reading other reviews and hearing from other people the service is great! Small bowl has plenty of food and is very filling. This is a great healthy lunch and I will keep coming back.

I could go on but know that because of them, I went back more than a few times. Four times in five days. One of those days was for breakfast. Two meals. Mostly drinks. See pics. The bar and dining area are clean open and in the Westin's lobby area on the way to the elevators. The food was great and I enjoyed the "adult" beverages I had. Several pics didn't make the cut as I started in on them before the camera got a chance to do its thing. What surprised me more than the decent food was the whiskey selection. Had a few pours I hadn't tried before. My liver was doing a happy dance this Comic Con. And I'd definitely drop in again even if I'm not staying at the property.

I came across the listing for Bronze Bird on Yelp, so we decided to give it a try. I had seen that it was in the Westin Hotel, but until arriving, I hadn't realized that it was the bar/restaurant in the hotel lobby. It didn't have a lot of ambiance. It basically looked like a hotel bar and the restaurant looked as though they were preparing for the daily breakfast service the next morning. Now I do want to say that the gentleman who greeted us and was our server was super attentive and kind. He absolutely deserves 5-stars. As far that the restaurant itself, I was a bit underwhelmed. We each ordered a cocktail, I ordered the red gin and tonic, and my husband ordered the smoked old fashioned. I did like the table side smoking presentation for the old fashioned. Both drinks were good, but not very memorable. We ordered that ahi tuna tostada, which was more like ahi nachos. They were tasty, but nothing remarkable. We also ordered the cauliflower bowl. I liked the flavors with the avocado and pickled onions, but the cauliflower was completely breaded... just too much for me. All in all, our experience was ok. Service was excellent, Everything else was really just OK. I think if you are staying in the Westin, it is a nice place to grab a drink, but otherwise I would probably not choose Bronze Bird when dining downtown.
