a bowl of food
Mori N.

I was looking forward to this place opening, as I am a huge fan of Poke and have it on a regular basis. Unfortunately, I won't be going back. There is just too much competition in that area that blow this place out of the park with quality and service. I ordered the Regular Bowl with Quinoa and chose the salmon as my protein. The serving was on the small side. I had to ask for extra Salmon after she served 1/2 a scoop instead of a full scoop. I did get the Regular .....not the small. I also noticed while waiting to pay....the customer after me had also ordered a bowl and it was much more generous. Maybe they need to establish across the board portion sizes so that all customers get what the pay for...instead of each employee serving what the they want that day. Imagine if Chipotle and a High School Cafeteria had a child...that's what their service reminded me of. They were not busy....one person behind me and one in front and yet they put all their energy into rushing and none into service and allowing guests to choose their 15 + items.....give me a minute..will you? The actual taste of the Poke? Honestly?....not even comparable to the other dozen Poke places in the vicinity of Yaletown...not even close. It didn't taste fresh and I didn't like it...so much so..that I threw it out. I wish I could've given these guys a stellar review, but I can't be less than honest. This was my experience with their food and service. Wishing them the best of luck.

I didn't expect to find much good quality food at SFU, but I was wrong. You just need to walk…read morearound for a bit. This 4 seat poké bar was better than I hoped for. I made my own bowl, which is always a lot of fun. First time I've had quinoa as a base, but let's give it a go! I think I went for most of the items, except for the ones where you had to pay extra. The tuna I got was fresh, as were the other ingredients. I went wild on adding sauces at the end. I designed a great concoction. I didn't get a seat at 3pm on a Thursday, so I had to walk back to campus to eat it. A quick thing I learned the hard way, if you want quinoa, use a spoon. Overall, friendliest staff I've met on campus, delicious choices, and quick service.

This week's delivery of choice: Steve's Poké Bar! Way back…read morebefore COVID was in existence, my coworkers and I would grab poke pretty frequently from Steve's Poké Bar for lunch at Lougheed. We all loved having this as a lunch option because it's, well, relatively more nutritious and clean than say, burgers or fried Vietnamese spring rolls. So, my bro and I decided to give the SFU location a try and waiting in steady anticipation for our custom poke bowls. The food came relatively quickly and the portions are still quite generous but...the sauce department was lacking. We both felt like there wasn't enough flavour to the poke, and the plain white rice was starting to overtake the delicious toppings. It was a bit different from my past experiences with the Lougheed location. Anyways, still got my poke fix, though I may lean towards trying Pokey Okey more next time haha

I love the burrito concept for a smaller portion option for poke bowl. I also love how easy it is…read moreto eat with the way they pre-cut your sushi burrito in half. My favourite is the Hawaiian classic. Everything came so beautifully together - the tuna with the sweet of corn, tang of pineapple, and crisp of tempura, the substance from seaweed. The burrito was perfect when I wasn't too hungry but definitely could have a bit more this time when I had a light breakfast. I also hope to try their torch options while the weather is still cold out. There is a $10 burrito Tuesday promotion so that's a $3 difference from My Hawaiian roll came up to $13. I'd like to add tamago and imitation crab to the Hawaiian roll (pineapple, tuna, seaweed salad, corn, radish coin, alfalfa, crispy tempura) next time! I like the nice and quiet ambiance, never too busy and staff are always friendly, even if I'm taking longer to decide.

I grabbed lunch here with a coworker. I might have been to Pokerrito before, but it was so long…read moreago, I don't remember what I had or if i had enjoyed it or not. I used the kiosk to order myself an Ahi Tuna Pokerrito. It probably took about 5 minutes to prepare, and I took it back to my office to eat. I like the idea of a handheld food, but in reality, it wasn't as easy to eat as I would have hoped. The nori wrap gets damp, and so it's a not easy to take a bite cleanly, and the nori on it's own it's stiff enough to hold itself up after removing the outer wrap. You end up making a tearing motion when eating, so it gets a bit messy. Taste-wise, it was fine. It had decent proportions of tuna and crab meat, and the tempura crisps gave it some nice crunchy texture. Overall, it was ok. For $14, I felt it was a reasonably priced, quick and satisfying enough. I got what I wanted for quick, easy lunch.
