Poke bowl with avocado. Looks like someone shook it up or took a big bite out of it.
Mel S.

Ordered on door dash. It was so unappetizing and unappealing that I couldn't even eat it. The smell alone was bad enough to toss it straight in the garbage. My boba drink was good. 2stars for that.

Fresh fish and plenty of options! Solid poke spot in Pleasanton. The only cons I would say is that the scoops of fish are pretty small compared to most places, and the seaweed salad is an additional cost. The service was decent - nice but not super friendly. Outdoor seating in a shared patio in the front.

Poke is probably one of my favorite dishes and this is definitely one of my top favorite poke spots in California. I think the combination of all the flavors pairs super well together. They also are very gracious with the fish scoops in your bowl. The bowls are also get filled up to the brim with all the different topics. I also appreciate how they're don't over-do the sauces. I think the seating outside the shop is so cute! It's a nice spot to eat outside with friends. There's also an ice cream shop right next store for dessert afterwards. One thing I would ask is for the toppings to be cut a bit better. I noticed that the green onions weren't chopped thinly and the cilantro wasn't cut up either.

Delicious, fresh, and affordable! Love this poke place in downtown Pleasanton. Great for a quick bite.

I've walked by Prime Poke countless of times, I finally gave it a try! I stopped by Thursday night around 6pm for dinner. I came in at about the perfect time because about 4 or 5 people showed up after me. This space is very small, I'd say 5 people in there is tight. There is also no indoor dining, there is a few tables outside though. I was intrigued that they have zucchini noodles as a base, I had to try! I liked the crunch it added but I think it added excessive moisture to my bowl so once I got to the end it was very watery - almost soupy. Not my favorite thing. They had a good amount of options for protein, toppings, and sauces. The unagi sauce was a great touch and I don't always see it. I found this spot to be a tad more expensive than other places. We got 2 bowls, one with 2 proteins and one with 3 proteins. The total was $31 dollars before tip. They offer a free scoop of crab salad or spicy tuna, which is nice but other poke spots offer that as a toppings option with no additional charge and are less expensive for more proteins. Overall, this spot is cute, clean and service was good but if I'm in downtown Pleasanton, I'll probably be going somewhere else. Good option for a quick & fresh lunch in the area.

Outdoor seating available

Located in Downtown Pleasanton. We came here for lunch after a hike. Since I was ravenous at that point, ordered the four-protein poke bowl with the zucchini noodles and their house poke sauce. We also had the kumquat lemonade, which was extra-refreshing! Definitely hit the spot. Just a heads up (especially as the weather gets warmer) that they only had takeout and outdoor seating available when we went back in June. Otherwise, a solid poke place.

Came here to try the zucchini noodles, which had a nice crunch. But as a poke connoisseur (or at least I'd like to think so - haha), I thought this place was just okay. The fish tasted fresh, which is the most important factor, but there weren't as many toppings to choose from compared to other poke establishments, especially if you consider what is included. Many items, such as avocado and seaweed salad, cost extra. The best part -- and this may be enough reason to make Prime Poke your destination poke spot -- was that they also serve boba drinks here. And they are delicious! Fish: 5 stars Toppings/extras: 3 stars Cleanliness: 4 stars Seating: 3 stars Service: 4.5 stars Drinks: 4 stars Tip: If you check Yelp, they often give a free boba drink if you check in.

First time trying this poke place & I really appreciate the fact they were willing to accommodate my bowl despite me not wanting the crab salad. The customer service is great & they make it very clear they're understaffed & it could take some time if busy, the Poke is good not my favorite but they're so polite I'll continue to come back I've been here twice so far & my first time was bomb but I made it too spicy lol. I usually love spice, second time I didn't add enough flavor. So the 3rd time I come hopefully I'll make my bowl just right. Anyways it's good quality with room for improvement unfortunately poketry has me in a chokehold.

This is the most delicious food in Hawaii. It is very authentic, tastes fresh and is very healthy. I love it.

Dismal portion size today.  No good.

Finally, my most recent GrubHub order for pick up was a success! After a few disappointing runs in the past with under-filled bowls and also missing crab meat as requested in my GrubHub order, they have finally come through on delivering a fully filled bowl AND with all the requested ingredients. I am a big poke eater, and what keeps me coming back to Prime Poke is their house special sauce that is unique from all other local poke places.

Tonight I ordered two poke bowls and decided to try this new place. I so wanted to give at least 3 stars based on my experience in the business with good customer service but then within 45 mins after eating I became pretty sick which is my reason only giving 1 star. Fish looked fresh, but tasted so fishy we could barley taste any of the sauce while eating. I was concerned but so hungry ate more than half the bo before I finally stopped since something wasn't right. Sure enough it has given be abdominal pain shortly after. Next, the cost of these bowls was pretty high let alone nearly every topping was an additional price. When I mentioned why the high costs compared to other locations that we typically frequent they mentioned because they have some of the most fresh ingredients. Meanwhile I'm staring at canned pineapple as a free option. I truly was so excited to try this option but it just didn't do it for me and now I'm sick. The one thing they have going for themselves is friendly service.

4 protein poke. Half brown rice and zoodles! Delicious!
Leanna L.

Fresh poke! Loves the Hawaiian ahi and salmon poke. I personally thought the scoops were a bit small but the flavor was there. Delicious and lots of toppings! Also love the zucchini noodle base. I was able to get half brown rice and half zoodles as an option. The 4 protein(~$15) was just enough to share between 2 people. Service was good, although a bit slow since it was dinner time and there was only 1 person working the counter, but the server was very attentive and helpful! If you're in downtown Pleasanton and looking for poke, I recommend giving this place a try!

3.5/5.0 Please turn on the a/c! I came in on a saturday evening to try out some poke from here and immediately i was greeted with a musky atmosphere. Because of covid, they cut off most of the store and you have to order everything in the front. This makes it difficult to create your own bowl so i chose one of their signature bowls. I got myself the signature bowl with squid in it and i was surprised. I thought the sauce was really yummy and the squid a bit chewy, but edible. I would reccommend the staff to prop the front door open so fresh air can enter the store and make it more inviting.

Choosing Elia to host our celebration was one of the best decisions we made, and we truly couldn't have imagined a more beautiful place to celebrate our love. From the very beginning, Mehmet the owner, Zubi and the entire staff at Elia Pleasanton treated us with so much kindness, warmth, and generosity. Every detail was handled with care, and throughout the evening we felt genuinely supported. The level of hospitality your team provided made us feel like family, and it didn't go unnoticed by our guests. The food was absolutely incredible. We've dined at Elia many times before, so we already knew how amazing the food was, and our guests confirmed it. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how delicious everything was, and so many complimented the beautiful atmosphere and exceptional service. One of the things that made the evening so special was how willing your team was to personalize every detail. From printing our personalized menus to creating our signature His & Hers cocktails, every touch made the reception feel uniquely ours. The DJ was exceptional and kept the energy going all night. Karaoke was such a fun addition and had everyone laughing, singing, and making unforgettable memories together. Everything exceeded our expectations. The ambiance, the attention to detail, and the professionalism of your entire team made our reception everything we had hoped it would be and more. You created an experience that our family and friends are still talking about, and we couldn't be more grateful. Thank you for helping create one of the happiest days of our lives. We can't wait to come back and enjoy another wonderful meal. Elia will always hold a special place in our hearts. With heartfelt appreciation, Nancy & Paul Rubio

Been here multiple times since they opened. Atmosphere is light, bright, and airy. Place is…read morespacious and very clean. No fuss, no muss. Casual but food is top notch. If I remember correctly, they get some of their seafood locally, from Pillar Point Harbor, by Half Moon Bay. Other fish come from farther afield but quality and cost control is reasonable given the fact that seafood is expensive. I've never been led astray. Order at the counter, find a seat, and food will be delivered to your table. Never had their pasta before. Finally tried their fettuccine. Instead of Alfredo sauce, substituted with butter sauce. Selected shrimp with crab. OMG! So good. Pasta was perfectly al dente. Hate mushy pasta. This pasta was fully cooked but still had texture. The butter sauce was generously studded with garlic. Shrimp were large and plump. Fully cooked but not rubbery at all. Next time, will skip the crab which disintegrated into the sauce. Go all shrimp or maybe try with fish. The fried clam strips were unnecessary. The fettuccine was enough of a meal by itself. In fact, was so full after the clams, took most of the fettuccine home. Even as leftovers, the shrimp and fettuccine was so delicious for dinner the next day. To cap it off, staff from the head chef to the cashier/server were so friendly and helpful. They genuinely seem happy to work here. Only 1 suggestion, they should add a few TVs for World Cup viewing.

Finally a decent fish and chips restaurant near San Ramon. Waited years for this place to open…read more I wouldn't go way out of my way to eat here but the prawn and chips and the fish tacos are definitely the winners. Get some extra tartar and cocktail sauce and it is a great meal. It isn't much of a true fish market and I can't say the lobster roll is better than Cousins food truck, but if you go here, definitely grab some prawn or fish and chips and get a taco and it is a perfect seafood combo. You won't be disappointed.

The staff was friendly, patient, and accommodating, especially with our group size. There was also plenty of parking, which made things easy.

The collard greens and mac & cheese were both delicious, and the cornbread muffin was the perfect finishing touch. Southern Fried Chicken Plate - 4/5 Crispy, juicy, and satisfying. We also got the mac salad as a side, which was excellent and easily a 5/5. Smothered Oxtail Plate - 3.5/5 The oxtails were tender, but the gravy was a little too salty for my taste. The rice paired with it was really good and helped balance the flavors. Smothered Chicken Plate - 4/5 Comfort food done right. The chicken was tender and flavorful with a rich gravy. Overall, I'd give this place a 4.5/5. The food was hearty, the portions were generous, and the service made the experience even better. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, making it a great spot for both small and large groups. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in the area and craving some good Southern comfort food!
