    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.

    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.

    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.

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

    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.

    Never knew this poke spot existed until recently. So far I've come here twice in the past 2 weeks…read moreand both times they did not disappoint. The poke here was very fresh and they have many options to customize your order. Usually poke on the mainland tastes different from the island. I'm not sure what they do but the pre-marinated poke they have here tastes like it came straight from Hawaii! This is now my go-to poke spot whenever I get the craving. I've tried a lot of poke spots on the mainland and Local Poke is up there in my top 3. I ordered the nachos both times and they were delicious. Not many places offer poke nachos let alone fried wontons as the chips. They're very generous with the portions and have a huge selection of sides, sauces and mix-in's. They are also priced really well and on top of that, they give you a Yakult for free!

    10/7/26 Update: Back again 3 weeks later trying to discover my perfect combo. Almost there. For…read morethis 2nd bowl, got a medium bowl, again with a base of half cucumber & half kelp noodles. Medium gets 3 proteins. Got the tuna, hamachi, and local poke. Also got avocado and seaweed salad for the 2 sides. Don't remember the exact mix-ins and toppings. For sauces got the house ponzu and goma. **** Really glad I finally got to try Local Poke. Tiny, unassuming place by the Santa Rita Rd. freeway exit, across the street from McDonald's. It's tucked away in the same strip mall as Paris Baguette on Pimlico Drive. The only qualm I had was probably the semi-abandoned feel to the strip mall. Several storefronts were empty. The large restaurant space by the gas station was boarded up, weeds had grown along the foundation, and trash piled around the perimeter. Local Poke itself has so many pros including alternatives to the standard rice or spring mix base. Chose cucumbers to up the veg content. Also tried a clear type of kelp noodle. It was crunchy, with a neutral taste, absorbing flavors from the sauce. On that note, be sure to balance salty with sweet and/or spicy. Made the mistake of choosing a majority of salty ingredients and sauces. Had to add more sriracha and a squeeze of lemon at home to compensate. Small was the perfect size for a light meal. Will try the medium when I'm hungrier. Also liked the variety of seafood on offer. On this particular visit, they had 4 naked and 5 marinated fish options. Will definitely return sooner to find the perfect combo of fish, toppings, and sauces.

    Probably the worst spam Musubi I've ever had. And I've had grocery store and convenience store…read morespam. The rice was hard. And the avocado was brown. Also had me wait 10 minutes to order because there's only one person to take orders and make food. Not ideal. The tablet to order was also broken. I ordered the shrimp poke bowl which the kind would be around the same as salmon protein. Which was fine. The shrimp was nice and plump. However, the combination of the seaweed salad and the share amount of teriyaki sauce that was put on made for a very salty salad. I wish that there were more greens inside. Also, all of the sauce options had mayo in it, which I am allergic to. Overall one of the most terrible experiences I've had.

    Another poke place that appears to be a franchise and without the level of customization as most…read moreother poke places have. My husband came here to claim his free birthday credit. There was only one staff member at the front, and we happened to arrive behind another group with a complicated order. So our wait was unreasonably long. Poke bowls are limited in options and customization. They are prepared back in the kitchen and not in front of you like other poke places. This makes for a less interactive and satisfying experience. Prices are typical. Taste is average. We will stick to our usual places unless there is a promotion offered.
