    A good poke option for SLO as it's very limited. The bowl is a good portion and definitely fills you up. The price is a little expensive, but it does ensure the quality. ig: @cravingswithcat

    WOW!!!!! EACH BITE TOOK MY BREATH AWAY! You know usually there's a bite that is the best and you keep wanting to go back to that bite... NOT HERE!! Every single bite was INCREDIBLE. I got a Poke burrito and housed the entire thing within 10 minutes. The staff was so kind and let me try a few things that I was curious to put on my burrito. Edward and Eylan (might have spelled that name wrong and I'm sorry) you guys are crushing it and THANK YOU!! WOW!! I kept dancing while I was eating because I was full of joy. Small was the perfect size!

    Went back for poke bowls. No more tomago! I realize eggs are expensive but come on. At least charge extra for this. In its place they had macaroni salad in its place. Ugh!!

    Enough choices in protein, sides, toppings to allow you some nice customization choices without it being overwhelming. The taste was pretty good, the portions generous, and service was friendly and prompt. Filling and fairly satisfying. We'd come here again.

    The seafood was fresh and I didn't have to wait for my food because it was made in front of me. I sat on a high table with high chairs, and there was plenty of seating. Make sure that you get a free water or if you preferred bottled water. It was a relaxing experience and I look forward to visit a third time when I'm in the area.

    I got a bowl with white rice, tuna and salmon, seaweed salad, cucumbers, corn, green onions, and corn. For my sauces, I got sweet shoyu & ponzu. I thought my protein was incredibly salty, which is interesting because I thought the "sweet" shoyu sauce would nicely balance the citrusy ponzu taste. The protein also had a fishy aftertaste. I also thought my cucumbers had a soggy consistency to it. Though, everything else in my bowl was better. I liked the sweet, fluffy rice taste and crunchiness of the seaweed salad. In addition, my friend thoroughly enjoyed her bowl, as pictured at the top. The service was mediocre at best, as the worker had a cold and apathetic demeanor toward me. Though, every other worker in the store was friendly towards me and my friend. If you're looking for a quick poke fix, this place would satisfy that craving. Though, I would highly recommend considering another spot if you could.

    Every time I come here they're consistently good. Large portion and fresh ingredients! The staff are always friendly and helpful too. The medium bowl gets you 3 proteins and 2 sides while the small bowl gets you 2 proteins and a side.

    $21.75 large poke bowl is SO filling. 3/12/2022
    Rachel S.

    Legitimately the best poke bowl I've had from Hawaii to New York. As of today, for $21.95 you get 4 large scoops of protein plus 3 sides which can also be protein like spicy tuna or avocado or mac salad. All of the sauces are gluten free and made with tamari! Only a couple items weren't gluten free, such as the fish eggs. I felt like I was waddling out of this place it was so filling the entire day. I absolutely will be back! PS: the don't take cash so make sure you have a card.

    Medium Poke Bowl $17 5/5 * 3 meats and 2 sides and unlimited toppings * 5/5 would come again * 2 scoops of salmon and 1 scoop of yellow tail * lots of sides and dry toppings like furikake to choose from Medium Bowl $15 4/5 * 3 proteins: salmon, yellowtail, shrimp * 2 sides: spicy crabmeat and avocado * sauce: sweet shoyu and miso * toppings: tobiko, carrots, corn, cucumber, edamame, sesame seeds, furikake * was craving poke and this place delivered!! * recommend choosing one sauce to make the poke bowl less saucy, unless you prefer otherwise!! My friends added Hot Cheetos to theirs!!

    PokiRito is a standout as far as local poke goes, and it's absolutely great for a healthy meal. Depending on how hungry one is, there are three sizes of poke bowls available with a base of either white rice, brown rice or mixed salad greens. I prefer a half rice/half greens combination as a healthier option. One may choose proteins from fresh fish -- Ahi tuna, salmon, albacore, yellowtail or sous vide shrimp / scallops, or cooked selections such as Spam, Kalua pork, teriyaki chicken, beef patty or egg. I have found their fish to always be very fresh & delicious. The sides & sauces selections are wide reaching. I like combining a couple sauces for a wonderful mixture that enhances the bowl. It's great that the sides of spicy tuna or spicy crab, avocado or tamago are available as a regular side, not as an extra charge as at some other poke restaurants. The mix-ins & toppings (veggies, fruits, kimchi, edamame, crispy garlic/onion & many others) selections are nicely varied. Parking is extremely limited and tight, as PokiRito shares the lot with other businesses near campus. The employees are upbeat & friendly as they work as a team to keep the line moving. At this time, they only take credit or debit cards or payment by phone. Prepare your poke bowl with your favorite selections & enjoy! Great job guys, we'll be back!

    Freaking delicious! I got a Medium Bowl, with Albacore, Ahi and Yellowtail dressed with Yuza Ceviche. Loved the topping additions, I go wild, don't skip out on the Mango Pineapple Salsa + Crispy Garlic! My boyfriend, Travis devoured his bowl as well. It was utter silence the first 10 bites, so yummy, super filing and fresh. Everything was fire. Def will be back!

It's one of those things where you don't know what you want but every menu all looks the same. We finally tried it out for dinner after a weekend in the wine country. The restaurant is right in the heart of downtown SLO next to the park and riverwalk. We had an early reservation at 6 on a Saturday and let me say the place was packed. The outside patio was completely full which was nice to see. Checking in was easy with the hostess. All was sweet and made it fast and simply and we were seated right away without having to wait for the whole party to arrive. Menu wise, a bit of everything but they specialized in paella's. And that was had. Our waitress Kaitlin was the sweetest. Right from the start, she was a major doll. Made sure we were taken care of throughout the whole dining experience. Started off with a bottle of red for the table. A good selections from their menu. Then a few small shared plates for the table. An order of the bacon wrapped dates, Brussels sprouts, Peruvian shrimp ceviche and the gambas al ajillo. First off the dates, very tasty with salty and sweet. A good bite size with about 6 piece. Then the ceviche, nice chunks of shrimp with all the trimming. Cucumber, red onions, tomatoes , avocado, cilantro and chips. Then you have the sprouts which is pretty self explanatory. Roasted to a nice crisp with golden raisins and almonds. Pretty decent and delicious. Lastly the gambas, sautéed shrimp in paprika garlic and white wine sauce with a Parmesan slice of sourdough bread. Everything was delicious and a good start to an amazing meal. I do recommend the starters. For our entree, even though we started off with loads of the shared plates. The mains all looked amazing. Clearly we had to have the paella which they're known for. There were couple options in them but we opted for the mix which was a combination of the seafood and meat paella. Let me say it was massive and clearly more than enough for four of us. The nice big chunks of seafood and meat which they did not skimp on. The flavors and the whole combination of everything together, chefs kiss. It was pretty massive as well. Of course we couldn't just stop there, we also had the lamb chops with frites. Cooked perfectly and very tasty. The hanger steak with chimichurri sauce accompanied by roasted potatoes and sautéed broccolini. That dish was excellent and steak was cooked perfectly. Lastly, I believe it was one of their specials the sea bass. A nice thick and flaky piece of fish on top of a red sauce of tomatoes, olives. The flavor was excellent and worth it. The food was excellent and it was a surprise when there were leftovers. We may have over done it with the extra entrees after seeing the massive platter of paella. But every dish was excellent and worth it. The service was great with everyone involved. Friendly staff and excellent customer service. The food and wine were great. The whole dining experience was top notch and greatly enjoyed. We will definitely be back. At least we know about the paella now...lol... A must and highly recommend. Too full to even looked at the dessert menu.

After checking out around half a dozen options, we decided on Luna red as the ambiance looked amazing and the menu had options for all the picky eaters in our group. We got seated outdoors and they had sufficient number of patio umbrellas to shelter us from the afternoon sun. The outdoors was really beautiful, they had plenty of greenery and it was like a tropical paradise. We got a lot of appetizers to share, they have options to order 4, 6 or 10 tacos. We got 10 start off with. I personally got a paella as it has been forever since I had it. *brussel sprouts- 4.5/5- one of the better versions of brussel sprouts I have had in a while, they were beautifully roasted, they retained their character but at the same time were delicious instead of tasting too healthy. *fingerling potatoes-4.5/5- potatoes tend to be tasty any which way they are cooked. The standout in this version was the finger licking sauce it was doused in. *paella- 4.5/5- I got the chicken paella. It came with a soft jammy egg. The dish had 75% protein and about 25% rice. The rice at the bottom was nicely crisped up. The chicken was in large chunks but surprisingly non funky and wonderfully flavored. I stole some of the sauce from the tacos to amp up this dish further. 4.5 for the food, rounding up for the good vibes and great ambiance!
