    Thank you Poki Poki for totally redeeming yourselves!! i've been here twice this past month :) i just had to give them another shot frm having a not so great experience a few years back. i didn't leave a negative review because in my heart it wasn't the food it was the Wrong Crew *at that time. well anyways i wanna say they have up'ed their game and their customer service is WAY WAY better than before. The poke bowl became a whole to-go Box for the large and not sure if the server just liked me but also super generous the last 2times i ordered. Everyone deserves a second chance. i'm glad i did. i'll be seeing you again soon!- lots of parking but kinda tricky entrances to this location -the Home Goods/Aldi/BevMo / Fed Ex /El Pollo Loco Plaza. ******oops- this review is for the one in Escondido!! lol my bad! :D

    Amazing Food! Super good but pricy since it is poki. Workers are nice but don't work the quickest. The place is nice and clean and they also have amazing boba!

    The restaurant
    Veronica G.

    I love this location! The staff are always friendly and efficient when we visit. There was a long line on this particular occasion. The restaurant was clean despite heavy foot traffic. As always, my poke bowl was super tasty. The ingredients always seem to be fresh. By the time I add all of my toppings to my fish choices, I am left with a very hefty bowl of food. it's extremely filling and I often have leftovers. That way I get to enjoy two times. I love all the options to customize your bowl to include exactly what you want. This is better than when you go to a restaurant and order poke there. They don't necessarily have options for customization at other restaurants . So this is my definite go- to poke choice! They could add a few more tables to make the restaurant seem a bit more inviting. They have lots of empty floor space.

    We went for lunch and we were able to walk right up and order. They had more choices of fish than I thought they would. The serving size was pretty big. I was able to save half for dinner. It was clean and very open.

    I had an amazing experience here this afternoon. My boyfriend and I stopped by so I could get some boba today. I got the Brown sugar milk tea with brown sugar boba and it was 10/10 exactly what I was craving!!! They had so many options for milk tea including a variety of boba and adds on. I also love poke but didn't try any today...I will be back though!! Definitely check this place out for boba.

    Regular Bowl

    Ordered 2 regular bowls for about $35 including tip. The plates were absolutely stacked and pretty affordable considering its poke. I liked how they had seared ahi tuna as a protein option, never really seen that at other poke shops. They had limited sauce and topping options in comparison to other spots, but they had all the essential ones you'd expect. Process was simple and quick. The flavors and quality of fish was okay; I've had better, but it's still really good for the price. I was able to split my bowl into 2 separate meals. The interior of the shop is pretty clean as well. Overall, would come again if I'm looking for a cheap poke spot.

    Food (4/5 stars): Pretty solid poké place in Vista! I appreciated the generous portions and all the toppings. The fish wasn't the freshest, but the eel sauce and spicy mayo made up for it Experience (3/5 stars): * Price: quite pricey * Wait Time: egregiously long on a Tuesday night. They were severely understaffed * Service: good and friendly * Parking: there's ample parking in the Vista Village * Ambiance: it's a simple and casual poké spot

    Great poke bowl and brown sugar milk tea! Love all the toppings you can customize and fish was fresh. I was super full after my meal! Will be back

    See all

    Too expensive for what you get. And what you get is not very good. There is very little good poki in north country.

    The poki is amazing but they shrank the portion sizes a TON. Now the fish portions are tiny and it doesn't feel worth it

When I say I love Poke, I eat poke almost once a week and have tried most of the poke places in north county and along the San Diego coast. I am DEAD serious. This place has the most fresh fish and fresh ingredients. No weird smells when you walk into the shop (ahem Poke 1/2 San Marcos). Mixed greens never wilted. Service is insanely fast. Im talking faster than you placing an order at the front of an in & out line fast. The cost is shockingly reasonable that I don't know if I'm being punk'd. I love this place and dream about it so, so, so often. The people are wonderful and know how to give you good portions. I've also had their edamame, spam musubis, chicken teriyaki, cooked salmon bowl. IT IS ALL soooo good. Poke jaws, thank you for coming into our lives.

The restaurant is located in a plaza shared with other businesses, but my friends and I didn't have any trouble finding parking. We came here after a long day of shopping and were really excited to grab some poke. I've had this chain before, there's even a location at SDSU where I attend school, so I already knew how the ordering process worked. We ordered four bowls, all fully customized. I love that you can choose your toppings almost buffet-style, although some do come at an additional cost. One thing I really appreciate about Poke One & Half is that they offer free avocado, which most poke places don't. I got greens and brown rice with salmon, and initially, everything tasted great as usual. Unfortunately, the next day I got food poisoning. I'm fairly certain it was from the salmon, it looked brown and slimy, but I didn't think too much of it at the time since the place seemed busy and the fish appeared freshly cut. I ended up throwing up the next day, so personally, I wouldn't return to this specific location. That said, every other Poke One & Half location I've been to has been great and has never caused any stomach issues. Overall, the ambiance was clean and nice, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. The restaurant itself was pretty quiet, and the staff were decently friendly.

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.
