    Oh man, do I wish I lived closer to this place so that I could have it a bit more often. I had just recently learned about this place and would definitely be coming back. I like how simple of a process it is to build a bowl. I found mine to be pretty filling and I only got the regular three scoops. ~~Parking: The restaurant itself is located in a strip mall. And there is plenty of parking. At least when I went on a Saturday morning around noon, there was plenty of parking. ~~Service: Good. The only interaction that you have with the employees is when they're building your bowl and checking you out. So nothing to complain about. ~~Best Part: The fact that you can get unlimited toppings. And the fact that they don't charge you extra for avocado. ~~Worst Part: Nothing. ~~Return: Definitely.

    Very solid poke spot with great topping options and good quality overall - does not lean into Hawaiian flavors more like a Poke House kinda scenario fish is consistently decent quality ! Toppings are always tasty and fresh!! Avocado + crab salad are included in base price for free Currently is about $18 for regular size which is 3 toppings They also have healthy rice options like brown and black rice!

    I came here with a friend on an early Tuesday evening. I got the large poke bowl, and it was delicious. I found it interesting that this place does black rice, which had a nice texture. Also, I've never seen blueberry mayo as a sauce choice, it was pretty and also deliciously brightening to the bowl. They also do an avocado scoop for free which was pretty neat. The place was very clean and basically empty, but we did come pretty early on a weekday, and that just meant no line for us. There is plenty of parking in the lot. I would come again if I were in the area and craving poke.

    It's tucked in a large strip center. Clean place. Several seats inside. Simple menu for Poki. And a handful of rolls. Interesting choice of black rice. I asked for a sample. It was tasty and nice texture. Prices are fair. Bowl and roll was $29 which included my tip. Angelina was my poki barista. Pleasant and serves a good bowl. it was fresh and filling. Will stop back again when in town.

    This place never disappoints! Whenever I'm in the area, I will stop by and grab myself a Roll Combo meal. Their fish tastes very fresh and they dont charge you for avocado or seaweed salad as a topping! I always see the same group of people working there when I go and they are very nice and accommodating to your requests! It's a local mom and pop poke shop so please stop by and give them a try! They will not disappoint:)

    One of the freshest poke spots I've had in the area! They have a great selection of fish and toppings. Their albacore is so smooth, it melts in my mouth. They also have one complimentary scoop of imitation crab and avocado- where most places charge extra. The portions are just right! It will definitely have you satisfied at the end of the meal. Plenty of seating for groups or solo dates with yourself. The staff will always greet you and they're very welcoming as well. Would definitely recommend!

    I love going to Poki Run for guaranteed fish quality, unique toppings/sauces, and friendly staff! I've been coming here for years and it's still one of my favorite poke spots in the South Bay. One of the best deals for poke imo as they do not charge for avocado, seaweed salad, or crab meat for the first scoop. Small bowl includes 3 scoops of protein and large for 5 scoops. The ingredients are always *chef kiss*. Fish is always fresh and has good texture. My favorites are the spicy tuna, salmon, yellowtail, and ahi tuna. I specifically love their mango and blueberry mayo! I know the blueberry mayo may sound questionable but trust -- it pairs so well with the poke. The interior is always clean whenever I decide to dine-in. Plenty of seats and parking as well. I love how home-y the restaurant feels, a true mom and pop shop!

    Fresh proteins, generous portions, kind and enthusiastic staff. Great price for the quality and quantity. No extra charge for avocado, whaat?! If you're in the Milpitas area, highly recommend you stop by! Clean and many tables to sit in inside!

    Kevin P.

    Great little mom and pop shop that serves poki and sushi. Lots of spacing and parking is great, service is A1 and poki was extremely good. They had varieties and fishes that other spots do not have. They are extremely clean and thorough. Portion size is a bit smaller than expected but the taste in quality makes up for it.

    Large bowl with 4 proteins.
    Lucas C.

    This place is becoming one of my go tos for sure! I chose the large bowl and it came with 4 proteins. There's a lot of variety and hamachi and spicy shrimp was up there for me. There were other options like edamame, corn, etc. I loved the spicy mayo sauce drizzle they leave at the end. Service was really quick and their staff is friendly. Definitely recommend!

    3 scoop spicy tuna
    Nancy L.

    I wanted to try more places besides Poke House and I love that this place's poke bowls are always so fresh!! The ingredients here feel better quality than other poke places I've tried so it's definitely worth the money. I got the spicy tuna and it was amazing! I loved the texture and flavor. The sauces are so flavorful and go well with the ingredients. I had this place to go so didn't get to see inside. I would definitely come back here again!

    Sabrina D.

    Decent price compared to how expensive poke bowls have gotten these days. 3 scoops of protein for ~$15. Free avocado is a huge plus too! Service was good and employees were friendly! I got the salmon, tuna, and shrimp with a mix of the house and spicy sauce. Got the wasabi mayo on the side and it was pretty good!

The Chinese sausage pieces sprinkled throughout added extra flavor too. The bowl is deep so there seemed to be roughly 5 cups of rice. Unfortunately the laksa shrimp fried rice was disappointing in comparison. It didn't have much flavor overall - better than plain rice but definitely needed more seasoning. The menu lists homemade laksa sauce as an ingredient but we didn't taste that, and the dish wasn't spicy at all either despite the 1 chili pepper rating. But it looked just like the menu picture so maybe the description is wrong. Fried chicken with tom yum sauce came with 6 pieces. Very juicy. We also enjoyed the herbal roasted prime steak with sausage rice. The delicious rice had the taste of fish sauce. Most of the short rib slices were soft and a few were slightly chewy but overall decent quality. Some of the fattier pieces of meat were still attached to the bone.

I came here on a Friday evening with my friend to grab dinner around 6:00 PM. The wait was around an hour, so be very prepared if you're coming during the dinner rush. This spot is located where the majority of the Asian restaurants are in Milpitas, so it's safe to say the parking can get a bit hectic and intense. The interior of the place is very bright, modern, and clean. There is a lot of seating for a small space, but the reason they are so busy has a lot to do with the number of people wanting to check this spot out. When you sit down, you scan their virtual menu via QR code and order there instead of through a server. You have the choice to order on one phone as a group or separately. Between my friend and me, we ordered a beef mint salad, fried tofu, confit mushrooms, and truffle mushroom rice. I will say that when we first got the fried tofu and confit mushrooms, we were quite surprised by the small portions compared to the price. That said, they were delicious, but skippable if you're trying to find the best bang for your buck. What I absolutely would recommend is their truffle mushroom fried rice. This might have been my best bite this month. It was so savory, the mushrooms hit perfectly, and the coating of butter on the rice was supreme. It was $28 for a bowl, but it was a good value to split between two people. Overall, this place had great, fast service (our food came out in under 10 minutes), a nice ambiance, and fresh, flavorful food.
