Okay okay okay, I did something yesterday out of the ordinary.. I went to a poke place and lemme tell you i feel poked! Food was good!!! CJ shout out to you & the help you gave. Well spoken and energized. The portion size at first was eh but I didn't finish my bowl so now I am happy with the portion haha! I ordered half rice half noodles ! It was bomb!!! Spicy shrimp and cream cheese crab. I didnt do veggies. There was people sitting outside and eating which was nice , me and my ruca woulda stayed but we had the kids and aint no way in the tucson hot sun i will pay that price for them to not like it . Haha. So we grabbed it to go and came home it was still fresh and very good. Looked like the manager was out wiping things down cleaning up so the building was clean and nice as well. Highly recommended. Tell CJ i said Lets Go Mets!! read more

I came here today to pick up some food for takeout. I got a Poke Bowl with salmon and tuna ($18), a Poke Bowl with salmon, shrimp and sweet potato ($18.50), a large Spicy Miso soup ($6), and a side of Seaweed Salad ($7). Service was fast since no one was ahead of me. I took it to a friend's house and we both enjoyed everything. There are plenty of leftovers, too. The only downside is that the "crab" here is imitation crab. read more

Overall this poke bowl is delicious. Lots of fresh flavors and spice, veggies and fish create a well rounded meal. My main concern is the prices seem a bit high. They also didn't include any sauces in the bag, maybe asking for soy sauce isn't normal with poke? Overall it's a small spot for a quick bite to eat. The service is friendly and the place seems clean. read more

This is my second time visiting the place. The staff is always absolutely excellent and they piled my bowl full of delicious fish. All the toppings were super fresh and I loved the delightful sauces. They even have awesome fresh fruit drinks on tap. I liked the pineapple coconut. Definitely worth the stock if you're in the area. Very solid poke restaurant for Tucson. read more

Pure Poke And Prep - Tuna and salmon poke bowl - Poke Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I tried Pure Poke and Prep as a little splurge on my lunch break. I had it delivered, which was nice. It was really delicious and I opted for the Kahuku Salmon and the Haole Salmon (I think) as my proteins. I opted out of the rice and just got avocado and cucumber salad. I got the wasabi cream, and the Pure Delicious Sauce (which is their House Made Ponzu). Let me tell you-everything was superb! I will absolutely be ordering from Pure Poke and Prep again! It was just enough and very satisfying. The only thing that I will mention is this: do your research online as far as choosing what to order-my selections were full of juicy and delicious sliced onions. They were amazing, but if I had done my research I would have chosen a selection minus the onions, due to me being at work! Oh, the sacrifice! So, I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants delicious, and satisfying poke, with LOT of selections and options. I will be ordering from them again and recommend you do too! You know you want some! read more

Place is clean, they have a few tables inside and a patio dining is also available. They have different flavors of tuna and salmon, squid is also available. They're not skimpy on their serving portions. And lots of choices for sauces as well. The girls at the counter are very friendly and accommodating. There's a promo for Yelpers, free miso soup once you check in. Try their Mango Lemonade, it's really good! Another Poke place that did not disappoint. read more

First time here and I agree with the other reviews that the serving size is very skimpy for the price. I got 2 scoops but the tuna I ordered was almost out so I was shorted on my 2nd scoop and I asked the worker to put in another flavor to make up for it. The amount of toppings they put on top is small and you have to keep asking them to put more on like at Chipotle or Subway. 1 scoop of protein is definitely for a child size bowl and would not be filling for the average adult. Overall it was good, but not great. read more

Pure Poke And Prep - Tuna poke bowl - Poke Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I took the recommendation of a fellow yelp review and ordered a bowl with the Kahuku Tuna and the Momo Salmon. Everything tasted delicious and fresh. The only ingredient I was not a fan of was the sweet potato, only because it was burned. Friendly service and clean restaurant. read more

I debated on this review but since it's been 3 months and it's still on my mind I guess I should let fellow yelpers know my experience. I use to go to the tanqueverde location when I lived near there. However I work closer to the Oracle location. I was so excited to see this place come to the north side of town. I go in and it's just me and one girl working. I tried to order and she just looks at me blankly and says "I can't hear you" so I say my order louder, again blank stares and says it's loud back here I can't hear you, in a condescending tone like I know it's loud back there? They have glass that is way too high so I can only imagine it's like a fish bowl. So now I'm like yelling my order and she's just tossing stuff around like I ruined her day by being there. Once she gets to the cashier area where there isn't any glass. I tried to ask her is this location the same as the Tanqueverde location and she rolled her eyes and said yes it's the same name so it's the same company. Like damn girl who shit in your Cheerios! Anyway poke is good but I prefer Jimmys poke over this place and I promise I won't be back to this location again. The customer service experience was awful. I hate leaving bad reviews and I tried to let this one roll off my back but I guess it just didn't. Oh whale read more

New place, first time and may be the last as one of the two staff members was either having a bad day or just didn't like me‍ ...I got a two protein bowl with white rice, hoole salmon (I think) & shrimp with: red cabbage, green onions spinach, carrots, half avocado ($1.25), seaweed salad, ginger, cucumber salad sesame seeds and wontons with the ginger garlic sauce. I didn't taste a bit of garlic from the sauce. It was a bit too oily. The ingredients were delicious, all fresh, the avocado was too fresh, not ready to eat imo. The fresh lemonade is pretty tart but still good. Total=$20.10 I would go back. read more

Amazing poke bowls and very friendly staff. Very reasonable prices for the amount of food.

So excited to see this place open in Nw Tucson/OV!. I love that you can do 2 different bases (rice, noodles or spring mix) here.

I recently moved to Tucson and I've been dying to find places similar to the things I loved in SLC, so I've been following a lot of Foodie accounts on Instagram--I keep getting ads about this poke place, so I thought I'd check it out! I know that I shouldn't set my standards too high about the freshness of the fish, considering we're not near the ocean, and I can't compare it to Hawaiian poke, but Arizona is similar to Utah, so I think I've got a pretty good idea of what poke should taste like in the western states. Prologue aside, I would say that this poke is pretty good if you've got a hankering for poke, but I definitely would not pay for a bowl. The amount of poke you get per scoop is abysmal. It's actually incredibly disappointing comparing the price of the bowl and the size of the scoop. The star of your poke bowl is supposed to be the fish, but they hardly give you a palm sized scoop. Flavor wise, it's actually well seasoned and the freshness of the fish is pretty good. But in all honesty, I would recommend just buying a pound or half a pound of the poke and taking it home to eat with your own rice and toppings because their selection of toppings isn't that astounding either. I probably would come back because I'm not familiar with other poke options in Tucson, but if I can't see myself being a regular here. The service was good and the restaurant was spotless, but I just think it's super expensive for a tiny amount of poke and a small selection of unique toppings. read more

Always delicious! Love all the options! So fresh and tasty. Friendly and helpful staff.

Such a nice and knowledgeable person making my order and making sure I had just what I wanted since I hadn't been here before! Very fresh food and lots of variety. read more

The food is great. I asked the representative to make my poke bowl extra spicy and she did not disappoint. Very good food. The place was extremely clean and I will be returning. My fiancé doesn't like poke (unfortunately) and I like how they have options to people who may not want a poke bowl, like crab Rangoon dip. Great service as well. read more

Fiancé and I stopped in for a quick and light meal after a week of some heavy eating. Staff are really friendly and patient. I ordered a bowl with half and half greens and rice. WOW! What a helping of rice! I asked for a single serving of kahuka salmon with carrots, cucumber salad, edamame, sushi ginger, seaweed salad, and wasabi. I topped it off with kahuka sauce, momo sauce, and furikake. So fresh and delicious! I really loved the fattiness of the salmon! Overall, very good! My fiancé did comment that his tuna was fishy, but I liked my bowl a lot! read more

Pure Poke And Prep - Kahuku salmon bowl - Poke Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The great things first! Great protein options-fresh, plain or marinated, all delicious. A nice array of toppings, both savory and sweet, with a good variety of interesting veggies. Sauces are unique and tasty. Clean, well-lit, pleasant store. Okay, onto the not so great. The biggest drawback is the increase in price. The scoops of protein are pretty small so you really need two if you want a a taste of protein with every bite. Add on a tip, and you are paying $20 for a take out that doesn't include avocado. Tasty, but very much a splurge now :) read more

New for us and this is our 2nd time visiting. Both times for dinner and first time was ordered online for take out and 2nd time we got bowls to go. Restaurant is clean and has plenty of tables. Even some outdoors. Food is fresh. I got the pure poke Tuna with white rice and noodles and the. Lots of veggies. Everything was fresh and tested good. The lemon cilantro aioli was so tasty on my bowl. I love that you get to choose what you want. read more

This is one of the newer poke spots around town. It's a welcome addition to northwest Tucson. It's quite small inside with limited seating but it wasn't crowded when I went at lunchtime during the week. Typical modern clean look. Staff were all very friendly. The process of ordering is like Subway. You pick size, then protein like salmon, tuna and others including pre seasoned options. You can choose base of noodles, salad, rice or even half of one and half of another. You have multiple vegetable options and crunchy toppings as well as several different sauces. Beverages are the usual except for a few unusual ones like Thai iced tea( in a can). The poke was good but it's not the best I have had. It's a good place for a quick and healthy lunch. Overall I think it's 4 stars but it's also very conveniently close to me. For some maybe it's only 3 stars. read more

No salmon on my pick up bowl order and no flavor. Felt the staff was dismissive and didn't care when we raised our issue with them

Good service and great food. I have only had poke a few times in my life and so far I haven't had a bad one. This place has nice fresh tasting fish and the selection is good. I only wish they had pre-selected bowls to choose from. Building your own bowl is not something a rookie poke eater is used to. read more

Food was tasty and the service was excellent. I would come here again. Very cute location. read more

A quiet place for good food and service! I had never tried Poke, until we started going here about 6 months ago. It is very good.

Everything was fresh and tasty. A bit more expensive than their competitor down the road, that is my only reason for not 5 stars.

First time visiting the Oracle branch and I can say that the poke looks and tastes fresh! The staff was very friendly and helpful! The place was also very clean! A great and welcome addition to restaurants in the area! read more

Our ahi and salmon poke bowls were delicious, fresh and a generous size for the price! Love the variety of toppings and delicious sauces. We had friendly service and will definitely be returning for take out. Only wish they would play music to add some ambiance. read more

This place is a hidden gem! The fish was incredibly fresh and they have a huge selections of toppings. The staff was super friendly and the restaurant was immaculate. A+++++++ read more

I never post bad reviews and I always give restaurants the benefit of the doubt. I am honestly pretty hurt and disappointed in the meal I received. We come from Alaska where the poke restaurants we are used to give plenty of fish meat and flavor for your dollar..we spent almost $20 on this poke bowl and received 6 small pieces of poke that was buried in an overwhelming amount of greens. They skimped on avocado too. I was expecting a little more than that for the price and can't help but think it's because we chose not to tip on the app. So sad. We were very excited for this place. I guess inflation effecting us all. Maybe the photos should be updated so we know truly what we are getting read more

Pure Poke And Prep - "Poke bowl with greens" - Poke Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Probably the best poke place in northern Tucson and Oro Valley. Bowl's are big and lots of different flavors compared to others.

The fish is good, the salmon had really good fresh taste to it. But other than that, would not Recommend this place. Really pricey for what u get, you can expect very small amount of fish and if u want the imitation crab it cost the same price as any other fish.. the sauce I had was flavorless and ruined the rice, the atmosphere was dark and the 2 employees just looked annoyed that there was a customer. Definitely would never come back here. read more

Clean and friendly service. The lady there made some great recommendations for my poke bowl. Yum!

Chipotle style build your own bowl. Lunch size servings, dinner entrée prices. if you're not savy to what you want, and you're not gonna get it. And there's no picking up a number one special for a friend. The protein spoons are small, as are all the additional veg and fruit is on top of your white or brown sticky rice. The service was fine, the Spooner was polite but wasn't really able to help me build the bowl. ambience was seating for 30 or so and then I was there for a 2 o'clock lunch so only about three other customers, the place was clean, red and black decor, kind of clinical. of course they want your phone number so they can text you every 36 hours with a special. Wasn't necessary. I won't be back. read more

We got take out tonight - ordered online and paid ahead of time. Everything was ready when we arrived, quick and easy pick up. The food was delicious! I feel like it was a good value for generous portions. I'd definitely go back! read more

Waited in line for 20 minutes and watched as the lady behind the counter filled online orders and avoided eye contact. Very annoying. Food was nice. read more

The pine bowl is very good and the staff is very knowledgeable about gluten free options. This is our new favorite poke bowl place.

First time a few days ago WOW it was fresh and just some of the best poke I've had here in Tucson sure won't be my last time

This place is just not what poke is in the true form...may be cheap if you pick one scoop of tuna which is pretty skimpy but if you pay for added scoops it becomes too expensive because the tuna is just not that seasoned...the extra spicy is not spicy at all... a complete let down ....if you don't know what good poke tastes like then you might like this place....serving staff seems afraid to give you a good portion of fish under the watchful eye of the manager.....don't be fooled by all the free add-ons like spinach, onion, etc... They are cheap..... all in all, a great disappointment when we expected a refreshing new healthy eatery... read more
