Honestly such a high rating for their portions for normal scoops alone. They LOAD the containers and it is worth it! Their fish always tastes fresh and I love customizing my own marinade. Really easy to order ahead and pick up or go in and order to eat there. Quick either way. Staff is really friendly and helpful with suggestions too. During our most recent visit, I ordered a regular size with white rice and two portions salmon and one portion ahi tuna. I did the same marinade (unagi and spicy mayo) for the fish as the top dressing too. Really loved all the toppings you could add, especially the seaweed salad, edamame, and ginger. My husband ordered similarly with just all spicy ahi tuna and no edamame. We both enjoyed our meals, especially with our Hawaiian Sun treats. read more

I was staying in town for work and was looking for lunch to be delivered before heading out for the entire day. Poké was calling my name and Poki Poki was highly rated for delivery as well as being reasonably priced. I went with a "regular" sized "bowl" and WHAT?! I got a massive takeout box filled to the brim! Believe me, I'm not complaining but I was pleasantly surprised. I had a few add ons to my bowl, but overall it was about $23 which was just fine for the quality and the quantity of food. In my bowl I got spicy tuna, cucumber, spicy crab, avocado, salmon, spicy mayo, over white rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and the spicy tuna and spicy mayo was the perfect little kick! All the components tasted super fresh and it was the perfect "bowl" overall. Filling and tasty while still being refreshing. I also got one of their Vietnamese iced coffees and WHEEWWW tread lightly. It was absolutely phenomenal but I was bouncing off the walls. Granted, I needed that for the long day I had ahead, but sometimes that can be too much. 10/10 do recommend though. A little bummed I'm not a local resident because Poki Poki would see me weekly! read more

Poki Poki - Oceanside - Regular bowl (absolutely massive) - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oceanside, California

Came in late night after a game while charging my car. Great decision. The poke bowl was delicious. Only thing to suggest is a smaller size. The small size was a little too much. Love the options and the tea menu! Service was great. The vibe was a little stale, there was no music on and it felt like if you ate inside, your conversations would have been listened to and that felt kind of weird. read more

Great portions and tasty poke. Many great additions to regular poke with choose your spice level which I have not seen before. I chose medium and it was perfect. Lots of toppings that are at no additional costs. I love how they have Mandarin oranges as an added topping. They also sell boba drinks and lots of them too. read more

This place is my favorite poki place. The portions are huge! The fish is super fresh. I love all their extra selection you can pick. I got the 3 protein bowl with half rice and half spring salad. My favorite way to get my poki bowl. I picked salmon- scallops and shrimp. With imagination crab, corn, seaweed salad,edamame, green onion, tempura crisps, fried onions, & seaweed All that for $16.18. I think it was worth it all. I will definitely be back here. read more

Really good food and decent service. We didn't end up eating in the shop but it was clean and would have eaten there if we weren't hitting the road. They had great portions, a little expensive but with the amount of food you get- it's worth it. read more

Poki Poki - Oceanside - I had a bunch of items on my plate but you can add what you like. Spicy crab and avocado cost extra. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oceanside, California

A little pricey, but most places are nowadays. As far as the poki is concerned, it's under new management and I think the fish tastes fresher than previously. Why 5 stars then? Giving this place 5 stars today because I just witnessed one of the workers being an AMAZING human being. A young gentleman came in but was short on money, and the worker spotted him so he can have the bowl. The young gentleman was stoked with the generosity and couldn't wait to dig into his bowl. Maybe I'm jaded nowadays, but this was just one of the nicest things I've seen in a while and a place that employs these kinds of people deserve 5 stars! read more

I was very loyal to this location but whenever the male is serving I get noticeably lower portions I also get avacado and double crab I do good business with them so getting noticeably lower portions the last three times I will try another location read more

This used to be my to go place for pokiI would drive out of my way to only go here when I wanted poki. They just switch management and it's no where near what it used to be, the potions have been cut and prices raised. They barely added any sauce to top off. I asked for extra sauce and they only gave me 1 small container and said that's all they can give me. My bowl was dry and flavorless. I'm terribly disappointed and won't be ever going back again. So many of my friends love this location as a to go place because the portions were huge for the almost $20 for a regular size. Well not anymore! Be aware. That if you loved this place it's not what it used to be. read more

Poki Poki - Oceanside - Hardly topped with any ingredients and no sauce! - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oceanside, California

Really tasty poke bowls with lots of fresh toppings and generous portions. The place has a fun, quirky vibe -- love the anime wall art and the casual setup. Service was quick, and everything was clean. One star off just because the rice was a little undercooked, but overall great experience! read more

Staff did not follow instructions on my online order. They added more items I didn't request. There was no one in the restaurant when I picked up. So no excuse for no attention to detail. I was heading to take my dad to a doctors appointment so I juts grabbed the bag- staff failed to put a fork and napkins. I had to wait almost 3 hours after I picked up since they didn't add a fork (I drove to San Diego and back). Never again, you lost a customer. read more

I loved their bowls. The foods very fresh and yummy. Polk Polk is my place on my lunch time every day. The staffs are fast and friendly. Sitting tables outside very chill! read more

Huge portions and nice service. Some of the most bland Poke I've ever had, though. We came in around 6:30 and it really felt like it all had all been sitting around all day. Like, I don't know how else to describe it, haha. I definitely would not call my food "fresh" in any way as the fish was especially mushy and the rice was dry and clumpy. Silly nitpick, but my avocado wasn't cut at all. I just got like half of one thrown in. Perhaps, that's what I get for getting Poke for dinner? Not going back. read more

We were greeted by friendly staffs on Christmas Eve. I ordered a regular poke bowl with brown rice that I had shared with my partner. They give out pretty good scoops of protein. And, because I love my toppings, my bowl was a bit overfilled. We had enough to have poke for dinner. We decided to dine in, because no one was in there. Space is pretty open and clean. We enjoyed our experience and would come back again :) read more

Soooooo good! Always tasted fresh and it's a good amount of food. I can usually get two meals out of a bowl. Also the staff is always so friendly! read more

Generous portions, someone mentioned they could use more sauce and I agree. They had a healthy selection of tunas which I appreciated. I recommend coming here for your poki fix just ask for extra sauce. read more

This place is really not good. The quality of fish is abysmal at best. The veggies - like the radish - look like they were cut 8 days ago. I'd be surprised if I don't get food poisoning from this place. The crab and seaweed salad were both poorly executed and tasted off. Would never order from here again. read more

Ordered online for a pick up order on a Sunday evening at 7pm, when only one other customer was in store. (Not busy) Clicked on the boxes to add spicy mayo and eel sauce. They did not put any of those sauces on it. I also specified in the comment box to please put the seaweed salad and ginger on the side. That was disregarded. I understand neglecting the comment box requests, but missing the sauces? I mean, come on. Also, their Thai tea tasted like caramel. Not sure they even use a proper recipe for it. Only stars given are for portion size and cleanliness of restaurant. read more

I think this place has a lot of potential, but some of the portions is not consistent across the servers. The younger servers were giving very generous portions but I was disappointed with the portions I received from the older server. I got the large size, so four proteins for a total of $17. One of the four proteins I got was seared ahi, but I was only given two tiny pieces...not worth the extra $2. There was very little fish and in the end I had a lot of rice leftover. I would like to come back because the overall bowl is huge, they have lots of different toppings, a variety of sauces, and different protein options that other places do not have (such as octopus, scallops, seared ahi). I like that they have brown rice and offer half white half brown rice option! read more

Poki Poki - Oceanside - Large, four proteins - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oceanside, California

I'm used to all the Pokis on Convoy like Poki One and a Half and their portions. I got the 4 scoops- tuna, salmon, octopus and shrimp... and it came with mostly rice, like a lot of rice. Seriously, a lot of rice! The scoops of each were pretty tiny. Too tiny, even the fish cubes were cut in small cubes. But I did like the fish and the shrimp size and quality, nothing was chewy. The sauce had a good spice to it as well. Location in the Kohl's strip mall. We actually found a better Poki place down the road with huge portions! read more

i don't even know where to start with the amazing portions of food i got. the food was super fresh and tasty. the team / service was very friendly - great staff. and the location was very clean and open air. enjoy the food and if you get a large portion like it did, this will feed you for two days! i am 150% going back! read more

Love this location. Always a short/no line, portions are great and my bowls are always tasty. Keep up the great work!

Just had the most delicious Poke bowls!! Not only is the food so fresh but the restaurant was clean and Joseph was so friendly and helpful. He made the experience even better! Highly recommend! read more

I love all the Poki Poki locations I've tried, way better than One and Half, but this one seems to be the most generous with the fish and toppings (they all are, but this one even moreso). And it's only 7 minutes from my gym, so I can get my protein after working out. I always get the same thing, and it's enough for 2 meals: large bowl, salad base, medium spicy (this is the first place I've encountered where I had to downgrade from "spicy"), with salmon, tuna, scallops, onion, cucumber, crab scoop, seaweed salad, ginger, masago, green onion, raw jalapenos, radishes, furikake, and fried garlic. If you take rice in your bowl, it would be more like 4 meals. I get poke as a treat twice a month and it has consistently been good, fresh, and a LOT. Enjoy! read more

This Poke restaurant does nothing special but still a great place to go! Poki Poki offers very typical food and entrées. You choose a bowl. You choose some protein. You choose toppings. You eat. This place does nothing outside the normal for Poke restaurants but that is okay! It is still a great place to grab some quick Hawaiian poke and be on your way. It's like the Hawaiian/Asian version of Chipotle. Instead of making a burrito you are ordering fish and other types of seafood over rice. The interior of this place is open for dine-in. Not overly decorated or special inside (or out) but it is spacious and allows for social distancing. There is no exterior seating at Poki Poki. The parking lot shares parking spots with other businesses in the shopping center. The prices are about typical, if not slightly cheaper. Overall, if you are craving for some quick Poke and wondering if it is good, it is. Give it a try! read more

I love Poki and it brings me back to Hawaii every time I have poki. The concept of this place is simple, I'm glad it's caught on here in San Diego since I used to have to drive to LA for my poki fix years ago. The deal is this: 1. you pick your size 2. you pick your base 3. pick your protein 4. pick your sauce and extra sauces 5. pick your toppings This is what I chose: I went with the small (2 scoops) half white rice and half spring salad for my base. For my protein, I got ahi tuna and shrimp, I added on cucumbers. For my sauce, I went with the mild and added on the spicy mayo. As for my toppings, I went with the crab meat, green onions, masago eggs, ginger, and sesame seeds. The bowl came out perfect and for a small, it was rather generous and I had a hard time finishing it. I came here with my old coworkers from my last job just to catch up and they suggested this place. I loved my lunch and it was really filling! I'll have to check the other locations out too. read more

I was walking up to go inside and the guy working turned off the open sign at 7:31pm on 10/3/2023. Then turned it back on when he took the trash out. Not sure what's going on there. Too bad. I used to love coming here. read more

These places are popping up everywhere! I've been to the Vista location a few times but I'm here more often as it's closer to home. Place is always clean and service is friendly. The poke itself is fine. When it comes to poke, I prefer it to be marinated and more flavorful but this place does the trick when I'm in a hurry and need a poke fix. I normally get a small bowl for about $9.50 which gives you more than enough food depending on the toppings you add. The times I've eaten here, they've always given me a good amount of fish per scoop. Toppings usually taste fresh however the last few visits I've noticed the fried garlic has been stale and hard. I'll probably avoid it at this location moving forward. Bottom line, if you're looking for a quick, healthy meal at a reasonable price, you'll definitely want to try this out. But if you're looking for more authentic poke, there are better options. read more

Poki Poki - Oceanside - Small bowl w/ 2 scoops - Asian Fusion Near Me - Oceanside, California

Even though it's still 3 stars, I thought I should do a quick update on the improvements I've noticed since my last visit. They have chips as a base option now and new toppings, like edamame and fried garlic. There's a whole array of sauce options as well... spicy mayo to eel sauce and beyond. Why only 3 stars?? Because the fish portion is so tiny! And there's no side dish options to round out the meal. Maybe that's the norm out here for poke, but I still prefer the places where fish is marinated and served generously with a spam musubi or pile of garlic edamame. Pros: - several toppings and sauces - lots of parking - fresh fish - Coke machine for those who care - self-serve water on counter Cons: - shared restroom - still no side dishes (toppings don't count) read more

Another stop for a bowl of yum!! I swear - every time I go to this cool place I get great service and great food!! That's the ultimate combination!! Pro tip: Raw ahi tuna melts in your mouth!!! Got a bowl over greens w ahi tuna and a scoop of spicy tuna plus other toppings! In and out!! Friendly fast service w a fresh alternative to bland high calorie take out! This place rocks!! read more

Their 'scoop's are pretty tiny here, I'm not sure that the amount equals the money value but regardless it was enough for my appetite at the time. $11 for 3 scoops of protein and there is no extra charge for your first scoop of seaweed salad, edamame, or imitation crab. Easy parking! read more
