I just brought this home & it tasted like weeks old sashimi, I actually threw up before I even eat second bite of proteins. $22 bucks, learned my lesson & never returning again For the mini portions of only of 3 scoops... a waste to our economical spending elsewhere pls! Don't bother with this stuff again
The best poké in the Bay Area. I used to always have to drive down 45 minutes just to go to poké house in Fremont. I am so glad they finally opened one here in Alameda! It is a must try. After trying Poké House for the first time 10 years ago, it has become my go-to! Generous portions and flavorful. The staff are all very kind and they make delicious bowls.
came here last night for a quick bite! only one worker behind the counter but she was super sweet and attentive despite the online orders she was dealing with. pros: decent fish/topping selection, free crab mix, variety of seaweed options (emphasis on variety) and zucchini noodles!! cons: parking situation is okayish (it doesn't hurt to walk a little) bc its south shore and you're competing with other places
This Poke spot is so-so. It is not the best sashimi, but it's not the worst either. It does satisfy my cravings for a poke. Lots of toppings and flavor to choose from. I like how they still have the crab salad for free. The service could be slow, but they are nice though. The place is a bit small, but it does have a seating area where you can sit and eat.
Service was amazing. Fast and kind! The minus one star is just the chicken that gets over cooked when warmed up but still crispy and overall bowl was flavorful. Build your own is the way to go. A lot of quantity for the price and specially if you like everything on it! Ambiance was nice and chill, clean and relaxed.
There's limited poke places around here and so this place is good enough when I crave some poke - after all no poke on mainland USA can compare to the poke in Hawaii, unless you go to a high end poke place and pay for it $$$. The fish here is consistently good and have not had any issues so far. Sides and toppings have been good as well. The only issue leading to a 3 star instead of a 4 star is that the last two times I've gotten a poke here has with rice that is a little undercooked leading to a poke bowl experience that is a little below expectation. I've seen that they cook rice using those huge rice cookers and those cannot be used like a standard rice cooker but one has to engage in trial and error to know the best proportion of water to cook the rice well. Hopefully that is something already on the plan for improvement.
Nice place to stop for your poke fix. All the fixins and sauces with fresh seafoods just the way you order it. Always friendly staff, thanks!
Stopped off here while visiting a friend in the area: great poke and plenty of good toppings. The salmon was a little discolored, which was a bit of a turnoff. Friendly service.
Best poke option in Alameda in my opinion! Poke House is a chain and I've gone to their other locations pretty often so I was happy seeing this one open up! Quality is definitely consistent. Portions here are their selling point. It's always SO packed and they're extremely generous with the fish. Normally I get 3 scoops from other poke spots but with Poke House, I can get away with 2. Reason for 4 stars is mainly bc the fish quality is not the most top tier. The tuna can be stringy sometimes and the salmon can be overly fatty. Plenty of seating indoors. Nice and clean. Service was fast.
I'm a fan of Poke House and was excited when I found out they were opening one in Alameda, especially since it's close to where I work. I stopped by once right at opening. I waited around for a bit and no one acknowledged me until I finally asked if they had any spicy tuna. They just said no, so I left. Even though that first experience was pretty disappointing, I decided to give them another try. This time they did have spicy tuna, but it wasn't what I expected. Instead of the typical minced spicy tuna you see at most poke spots, theirs was just big chunks tossed in a watery spicy sauce. It didn't look appetizing at all, so I skipped it and just went with regular ahi tuna. I ordered my usual combo of half zucchini noodles and half mixed greens as the base and went with their house chili sauce mixed with Sriracha mayo. Unfortunately, the quality of the fish here was nowhere near what I've had at other Poke House locations in San Jose and San Mateo. The tuna was stringy and dry, not the soft buttery texture you would expect. Each bite was tough and not enjoyable. I ended up leaving most of the tuna behind and just ate the crab salad and veggies. For $17 before tip, I expected better. Unless things improve, I don't think I'll be back.
411 S. Shore Center Alameda, CA 94501 I rarely go to restaurants during their grand opening, but I had a good feeling about this place. Poke House opens up nextdoor to Yi Fang and HomeGoods on the "beach" side of Alameda's Southshore Shopping Center. I was there on Sunday, June 1st. It was a sunny cool day. At 4pm, there was no line. A young man sweeping the floor welcomed me inside, and offered to answer my questions. I asked him what's the best item on the their menu. He confidently replied....."The House Salmon Bowl." BTW, a Poke Bowl is not sushi. It's a Hawaiian dish. It may have similar ingredients, but the preparation and presentation are different. Poke House offers both raw and cooked dishes. So, I ordered a medium House Salmon Bowl (takeout). Poke House has a assembly line style counter. There were two servers and one cashier. Everyone was super professional and listened carefully to customers. Your order includes a utensils packet with a napkin, chopsticks, and a spoon/fork. The House Salmon Bowl was really good. I asked for sesame oil and pickled ginger. The salmon was fresh, with no fishy smell. The taste was clean. The krab salad, seaweed, green onions, and ginger all came together to make a delicious dish. I took my order to go. The restaurant was a bit crowded as they only have five tables inside. There's no table service. I will return and try something else. Hopefully they'll expand their hours. Free parking in mall lot.
Came on grand opening day! Such a clean place with a nice easy assembly line and friendly workers. We got the small poke bowl and crispy shoyu chicken bowl. Spicy salmon and Spicy tuna over a bed of salad, (you were able to choose from a variety of bases, white rice, brown rice, salad or zucchini noodles) You also got to personalize/pick your toppings along with a mixture of sauces. Seaweed salad was an extra charge but well worth it! Everything was super fresh and delicious. Crispy shoyu chicken bowl for those who aren't looking to eat raw fish or can't, this is such a great alternative! If you're looking for that crunchy moist chicken. Definitely will be back here again :)
Portions here are pretty big compared to other places. They have a wide variety of toppings and mix ins. Location is super convenient and staff are really friendly.

Fresh, delicious, healthy, and a great selection. The service is fast and friendly. What more could you ask for? I originally gave it four stars, but given how quickly i returned, i think it deserves all five. read more
Poke House is one of my favorite poke chain restaurants, thanks to the quality of their fresh ingredients. Building my custom bowl, I started with a base of spring mix and zucchini noodles, topped with krab salad (one of my favorite things on the menu), spicy miso salmon, spicy tuna. Then came the mix-ins including corn, cucumber, edamame, green onion, grape tomatoes, hijiki seaweed, mango, pineapple, purple cabbage, and sweet onion, as well as crunchy topping like crispy onion, furikake, nori, ogo seaweed, pickled ginger, sesame seeds, sliced almonds, and togarashi. They have a bunch of sauces to choose from as well, and my favorite is the creamy, spicy, unctuous sriracha aioli. Since I was dining with kids, we needed a cooked protein option as well, giving me the excuse to try the Crispy Shoyu Chicken, a furikake and panko-coated oven-baked chicken thigh, served over sushi rice, greens, krab salad, cucumber, grape tomato, green onion, and furikake. No joke--I actually thought the crispy chicken was even better than the poke! And the service here was super quick and friendly too--what a great place for a casual, delicious meal! read more
Quality/Quantity - On my way to Sushi House and saw you. Good for you, too bad for Sushi House. Hand rolls are made to order, so be patient. I think I got the manager helping me as he got interrupted so often while making my order. We tried their new item, onigiri; but they were out of 1 of the 2 that I ordered. So he substituted it to another hand roll, good service. This was good, generous baked salmon in the onigiri. Got the 3 for $17.25 hand roll special. Salmon, Spicy Tuna, and Crab Salad. Generous rice, too much if you ask me. But very filling. I was worried we did not have enough food, but the rice filled us. Plus we are light eaters. The crab was our favorite, and tasted like a CA hand roll. Overall good, reasonably priced, but I will probably go back to Sushi house for my sushi. Well I do want to try their bowls as everything looks so fresh!! Ambiance - A small location. Approximately 4 tables, 1 one seater, 1 two seater, 2 four seaters. Mostly to-go customers. Only one group ate here (Five Guys employees). Everyone else, including us, took to-go. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Service - Good. 4 team members working in the front of the house. Most people were greeted when they entered. I did not get a bag?!?! Which was weird, maybe he did not hear me say I wanted it to-go? Water, utensils, condiments are all self service. I forgot the self service napkins also, good thing we had plenty in the car and at home. Price - $27; reasonably priced, well less expensive than Sushi House, lol. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success at this location since May of 2025. Congrats to your parent company since 2016. 21 CA locations. 1 Atlanta location. 1 Portland, OR location. 1 soon to be Las Vegas, NV location. read more

One of the only spots only during labor day weekend, this was a yummy option! The portions were amazing and it was cool that they had hot options too like spam musubi. We ordered the large with five protein options half and half sushi rice and mixed greens. We chose the salmon, yellowtail, and spicy tuna. The extra add ons were crazy good - seaweed salad, avocado, imitation crab, corn, furikake, thinly sliced cucumber, and masago. The only disappointing part was that they didn't have a diaper changing table in the restroom, otherwise, great find in Alameda! read more
Late review but I came here a few weeks back about 20 minutes before they closed. I got salmon and tuna. All the toppings because I'm not picky. I got a spicy miso sauce and it was a nice kick because I accidentally flung some sauce in my eye as I was eating and almost took myself to the er LOL but it was so good! Staff are super nice too. read more

This is a review for this place's toogoodtogo (an app when you pay for product at a hefty discount because it is stuff they cannot sell at end of day and will go to waste) order for poke bowl. Advertised value:15$ Price:5$ Price i think it is worth: less than 5$ Bland scoop of fish on stale rice, no flavor. I say it is worth about five dollars but think about the fact that you visit them at 9pm after close and have to book in advance. And it's not a good product so why would you buy it? Why would you want to eat a poke bowl that is worth 5 bucks or less (gas station sushi)? You can make your own for way cheaper with fresh rice. It is literally diced fish with spicy mayo on top a bowl of rice. The time it takes to make it at home would be shorter than the round trip drive. This isnt even about food waste anymore, this is just this place trying to squeeze any more profit it can by false marketing. Places like these are a travesty to the whole toogoodtogo brand because I see alot of good stores on the app. If anyone is willing to pay 15$ for the bowl pictured below (the rice is stale by the way), let me know, maybe my perspective is wrong, and I am just stuck in my own little world. read more

Easy ordering via app. Ordered a custom bowl with oyster garlic tuna, salmon and shrimp with the siracha aioli plus the ponzu and sweet unagi. Everything was fresh but the sauces were too heavy and wet. It was a tab but spicy but the flavor was pretty good. The handrolls were a bit of a disappointment. Made to order but too mouth rice to fish ratio and it was pretty bland. Also not crazy about the idea of rolling it my self like unwrapping the onigiri. Ended up dipping the hand rolls in the poke bowl sauce for it to be more enjoyable. Poke bowls are ok but would skip on the hand rolls. Few tables for dining in. read more

Poke House is the best new addition to the Alameda food scene! Def the best poke spot in the area! I especially love their spicy miso salmon and Scottish oyster tuna. The fish is always super fresh, which is not always the case with poke spots. And the portion size is great - not sure why others are complaining about that. Each time I've gone, they always pack in the ingredients. And they have such a great assortment of toppings, including different types of seaweed, mango, corn, etc. I also like their suggested sauce combos. The spicy mayo and citrus ponzu is great! read more
I came here on grand opening day and surprisingly it was 40% off! Even though the line was long, it moved fairly quickly. I got two custom bowls, kids crab bowl and hand rolls to go. The staff are friendly and quick to prepare your order. The preparation station was clean and the fish and sides were constantly replenished when they were running low. I was nervous when I stood in line that they would run out of the fish I wanted since I came at dinner time, but they had everything stocked and prepped! I'm glad they were prepared for the crowds. The ambiance is bright and there are a few tables for customers to dine in but I decided to take my bowls home to eat. The custom bowls were fresh and the hand rolls were super tasty. I really enjoyed everything we ordered and will definitely add poke house to our food rotation when we are in south shore. read more

Went to Poke House around 4:45. Service was attentive once through the door. Prices are on par and reasonable for a poke place. I decided to go with the medium size. 3 scoops of protein, base, plus toppings. They offered a free scoop of imitation crab salad and I am not one to turn down free stuff. They ran out of tuna for the day, but it is nearing the end of day so that's to be expected. Got 2 of the spicy salmon and one regular w/half and half of sushi rice + salad. They separated the regular into another bowl to mix with toppings (this is a plus in my opinion) Good selection of toppings and packed to the brim. Took it to go, but if you're about the aesthetics, the menu was clear and concise. Labels near the toppings. And the eating area was clean. The flavors were good except for the plain salmon. Maybe I should've asked for more citrus ponzu sauce. Overall would go again. Food: Tasty Value: Good read more

The wait is finally over! We happened to walk by when they had their grand opening and there was a decent line out the door around 4pm. Ordering your food is like an assembly line where you start with a base and then move on to the next person to place your toppings and sauces. It's pretty streamlined and efficient. The restaurant was really clean and organized! We got the Large BYO which comes with 4 scoops of protein and we chose the miso spicy salmon and the oyster tuna. It's nice that each bowl comes with a free scoop of crab salad. The salmon was light in taste, I didn't taste any spice but I don't mind that, but the garlic oyster tuna was delicious! We also ordered 3 hand rolls: the salmon, spicy tuna, and California. They were all good and fresh but needed a little extra seasoning so I drizzled some soy sauce and it was chefs kiss. Would I order the hand rolls again? Definitely -- the size alone is worth it. We had to wait a bit for our hand rolls after we paid and the owner noticed and would check in on us and our order frequently and would make little conversations and even hand delivered us our order when it was ready. He was so sweet and we appreciate the attentiveness from him. All of the other staff were also amazing! 5/5 would recommend coming here and giving it a try! This will be our go-to spot for poke in alameda! read more

The new Poke House at South Shore Center is pretty darn good! We got the Tuna Lover and the House Salmon. They were both delicious. The crab salad--which comes standard but I nearly passed on because most crab salad is a waste of time--turned out to be delicious and thankfully not drenched in mayonnaise. The tuna itself was fresh and flavorful. The "very spicy" sauce was actually mid-level spice. The staff was still getting the kinks out, but they were kind enough. I'm giving 4 stars rather than 5 because the packaging plastic wasn't biodegradable. read more

Decided to give this place another chance and went there to order. The workers messed up on two out of the three bowls. There was no avocado in the charred salmon bowl and no salmon in the miso salmon bowl. How do you mess up on your signature bowl? read more
