Edward C.

Tried this place for the first time. I didn't have much expectations going in but overall it was pretty good. Plentiful toppings, fresh veggies, and amazing sauces! Fish was decent but wasn't restaurant caliber. Similar to other poke places. Overall, still a thumbs up!

Sauces and Dressings for the protein.

I don't have a good photo for this review because I am pretty much inhaling my food! This fish is fresh and the toppings plentiful. I got the medium size I will say I should have maybe asked for less rice because it was a lot! I couldn't finish it. I also liked that the avocado was not extra. Since it was my first visit to The Poke Co. the nice guy behind the counter offered a suggestion of the Hawaiian Island dressing and the Orangey Garlic TOGETHER and it is *chef's kiss* delicious. They also serve freshly made Spam Musubi (which I did get a photo of). Loved it. One order comes with 2 Musubi. Looking forward to coming back again.

Yum!

This place is delicious and definitely worth every dollar. Everything is fresh and delicious. I usually get the medium bowl with salmon and shrimp. The service is either great or horrible. I've gotten girls who are so nice and welcoming and I've also had a rude girl. I asked for two scoops of crab and rudely said that's extra (I don't mind paying) I always order the same thing.

I've genuinely never been this disappointed by a poke place before. I understand there were only two employees working and they may have been stressed or understaffed, but the entire experience was extremely frustrating. The employee making my bowl kept asking what I wanted while simultaneously making another customer's order. When she finally came back to mine, she had already forgotten what I asked for and started putting ingredients in before asking me what I wanted again. I understand being overwhelmed, but at that point, it would have been better to simply slow down and focus on one order at a time. It's okay to have customers wait after you finish your task. For this, it's understandable because I assume it helps with efficiency on their end but it was a little frustrating, especially since her coworker wasn't helping her assemble the bowls. She was nice and apologized about it, but for feedback as a customer, maybe don't do that. But that wasn't what disappointed me. The food handling was what completely ruined the experience for me. Ingredients from my bowl were falling onto the counter, and I watched her pick them up with her own hands and put them right back into my bowl. I'm not sure how sanitized the counters are or her hands, so it felt really uncomfortable watching that. What shocked me even more was watching her reach into an already assembled customer's bowl with her bare hands, grab pieces of sashimi, imitation crab, and other toppings, and transfer them directly into another customer's bowl. She wasn't taking fresh ingredients from the containers--she was literally taking food that had already been sitting in one customer's bowl and putting it into someone else's. Watching that happen right in front of me was honestly disgusting, especially with raw fish involved. On top of all of that, my bowl was almost $20, and the quality and amount of food I received did not come close to justifying that price. For nearly $20, I expected significantly better quality, portions, cleanliness, and service. I'm usually pretty understanding when restaurants are busy or understaffed, but this went beyond slow or disorganized service. Between the food handling, the quality, the portion, and the overall experience, this was easily the worst experience I've had at a poke restaurant. The bowl looks good in the photo, but it was not the BEST poke i've had for almost $20. Rice was too wet too. Presentation is the bare minimum...

You guys have a tip jar yet don't tip when u place orders smh ‍. No tip no trip. Maybe don't order far away

This is the Extra Large Poke Bowl (5 Scoops)
Daniel L.

I have eaten at a lot of different Poke spots. I really enjoyed this place. The food was fresh and they load you up with all the toppings. I definitely feel like I am being taken care of here! The people who work here are nice and will to help you with anything. They have some tables inside with air conditioning during hot days. I really enjoyed myself here and will definitely be coming back. If you like poke, this is a great spot to check out!

Chicken bowl with hardly any chicken . Just a bowl of rice
Andi T.

This is for the chicken bowl , while the chicken is good there's literally 4 tiny pieces of chicken my bowl. It's supposed to be "3 scoops" whatever that means . What a freakin rip off . Stop trying to rip off your customers!!!

Large and medium bowls
Soomi W.

I'm the newest fan of The Poke Co. I recently ordered a large bowl and a medium bowl and really enjoyed it. The ingredients are fresh, and the portions were very generous. Service was nice and friendly and the interior is really nice and clean. We'll be back often when we're in the mood for poke.

I ordered a bowl on doordash but got the wrong order delivered (not ur guys fault), i called about it and the lovely lady who answered the phone handled it beautifully! the order came back to me correct this time and it was delicious as always. this is my favorite poke place, i told my bf about how good it is haha. whoever answered the phone call today is doing amazing !!

Absolutely loved this place! We were served by Allen, who was fantastic--friendly and attentive. The portion sizes were generous, everything was super fresh, and service was impressively fast. I loved how customizable the bowls were. The extra-large bowl was perfect for sharing between two people. This was definitely the best poke I've had in a while. I was especially impressed that avocado was included as a topping at no extra charge--most places upcharge $1 or $2 for that. The location was clean, and the modern decor gave it a welcoming vibe. Highly recommend!

Medium Poke Bowl (3 Scoops)
Joy B.

First time trying this spot, and it did not disappoint! They have an amazing deal through Door Dash: 3 protein scoop (a medium bowl) 2 bowls for $20! So basically two medium size bowls for the price of one. You can't beat that value deal! The fish: so fresh and great size cubed cuts. Absolutely love the variety of the toppings and how tasty everything was! Honestly this is one of the best poke bowls I've had in a very long time. Will definitely try to visit in person!

Justin L.

FINALLY POKE CO IN TUSTIN! I've been dreaming of this moment for a long long time. This location is a dream come true. If you don't know what Poke Co is let me tell you. Poke Co offers a fresh and flavorful poke experience with a variety of customizable options. The ingredients are always fresh, and the variety of toppings and sauces lets you tailor each bowl to your taste. The atmosphere is casual, with quick service and friendly staff. Whether you're a poke enthusiast or new to the dish, Poke Co delivers a satisfying, healthy meal. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner! I already love this location the moment I walked in. It is a must try!

Just tried new location! I usually go to their other locations but this one is closer to my work (: Happy that they opened a shop so I could go on during my lunch! I got the poke bowl w tuna and it was so good. The tuna was super fresh and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. I added additional toppings like imitation crab, masago, and seaweed salad. They were all very fresh as usual! Super flavorful but still felt really light and fresh. My husband went for the chicken bowl (he's all about that protein) and even I had to admit it was amazing. The chicken was tender, had a nice teriyaki flavor, and it came packed with cucumbers and with a layer of green onions. He already said he wants to come back next week. Staff was super friendly, everything tasted fresh, and the whole vibe of the place was chill and clean. Great for a quick lunch or a healthy dinner option. Yums!!

They also were skeptical I heard the name they called out correctly and rudely asked me to repeat the order name back to me which I found taken aback by. That aside, I do recommend trying out Desouro. They have an amazing tea selection like Metal Goddess which is a toasty/nutty oolong and very fragrant. Very exceptional milk teas. Their matcha is on the lighter side which is fine but I prefer a very strong matcha. However, I noticed their sweetness levels have changed. Usually, 2 is the perfect amount of sweetness but this time it was sweeter than I like it. I really enjoy Desouro's drinks and their customer service overall. I believe it makes this place very special so I hope this was just a one time bad experience or a bad hire.
