#1 Ahi Tuna And Salmon
Whitney M.

The food is delish. Seems fresh so far. They didn't have salad for the half and half. Place seems clean. But the wait for food was very long. I feel they should have more than one worker for a place that is known.

#1. Ahi Tuna and Salmon
Jason Q.

No meat Friday, so I order this on DoorDash! The presentation of the food was good. The food was really good. Big portions and have plenty of sauce on it. I ordered the Ahi Tuna and Salmon bowl, with everything on it. It was very good. Definitely will be having it again. Overall I give this restaurant a 4/5 star review. I ordered 2 bowls and one of the bowls I have asked for the sauce on the side and it came on top. Can't judge the service and ambiance since I doordashed the food.

We came here on Mother's Day because every other restaurant had a 2-3 hour wait and this place was quick. Unfortunately, the food was really disappointing. I ordered the chicken poke bowl and the chicken was literally frozen. I ended up not eating anything. Definitely not a place I would come back to.

This looks so beautiful and tasty

Establishment caught my eyes specially the name and this place represents healthy food if you like salmon and tuna spicy ones and if you like vegetables this is the place to go their food is healthy but they represent their establishment of the way they represent their food and the way they serve you especially the hospitality is beautiful if you're all into healthy food this is a place to go as their food is healthy seafood veggies and good healthy drinks I highly recommend this place like I stated the establishment the name of the establishment caught my eyes the food is top 10 their food and the way they prepare it represents this establishment bring your friends and family you will not regret it especially if you guys are all into healthy food

FOOD Just ok... they dont have as many toppings and or selection as typical poke spots, sauce was too creamy for my liking. SERVICE Food is ordered through kiosk, no napkins, staff offered me paper towels when I told them they were out. Ample parking in plaza and food is made quickly.

Uncle Sharky

This is a fantastic poke spot with the addition of milk teas! How fitting that this place is right next door to a Hawaiian shaved ice store; it's like going to Hawaii. What I like about this Poke joint, is that they have about 8 ready-built poke items to choose from. You don't have to stand around wondering what to put inside your bowl; these are already custom built for you. My wife and I loved the Uncle Sharky which had Tuna, Salmon and shrimp. The flavors from their bowls are amazing! I'm a huge fan of their sauces and toppings. I do wish that they had wasabi and pickled ginger to put on top but they don't. The bowls are about $13 each depending on if you add more toppings. We also liked their Thai milk tea with pearls. The Thai tea was creamy and bold with lots of deep flavor. It's by far one of the best we've had. Next time we're in the area and craving some poke, we're definitely stopping by here again.

Nice Poke spot if your in the area. They have 6 Poke Bowl meal options and you can customize them to the Nth degree based upon your tastes. I got the Tuna and Salmon and it was tasty. Not the best but good. The quantity of the bowl is spot on and it's a seemingly healthy option compared to a lot of the quick meal options out there. Where I think this business will shine is it's large boba selection. I can see this spot being hit to a certain age group. It's proximity to the shopping plaza is key too. What I also like is the cleanliness of the place. Understandably it is a new establishment so I hope that the cleanliness is kept up through the years. The lady who was on duty at the time was nice and helpful too. It was my first time here so she was patient with me as I fumbled around lol. They have a large monitor ordering system too which helps with the customization of your meal which is cool. If your in the West livermore area and want a lighter, healthier meal option I would definitely recommend!

Salmon & Shrimp
Tony G.

Was right next door for the Uluani opening and wanted some solid food. Saw this poke place and figured I'd give it a shot. It was absolutely the best choice to make! Kept the Hawaiian vibe going! I got the Shrimp & Salmon bowl with half and half rice and veggies. Then got the sesame mayo over it. It's a solid choice for $12. Portions size was slightly larger than what I expected. Got like 5 or 6 pieces of shrimp which more than I expected. The first few bites were great! When you get towards the end of finishing the bowl, it's a little bit too saucy because all the sauce settled at the bottom. Other than that, really glad I ate at here!

Ahi Tuna & Salmon
Brenda L.

New poke spot across the street from the SF/Livermore Outlets! I thought the quality of fish and ingredients, and the options here were okay. They're different from other poke spots in the area, because their poke bowls are pre-set vs. create your own. The only thing you customize is your base, marinade (2 options), and sauces (3 options). The bowls here are just around $12, which I felt was pretty affordable! Though, the smaller portions definitely make up for this. I got the ahi tuna and salmon bowl. It comes with tuna and salmon poke, corn, seaweed salad, imitation crab, cucumber, and dry toppings (you can ask for some of the default dry toppings to be removed too). The salmon tasted pretty fresh and I think it was solid overall. I was just disappointed by the lack of options available here, what makes poke great for me is the assortment of toppings and sauces. Ambiance-wise, it's definitely more suitable for smaller groups up to 4 since there's limited seating and the kitchen takes up a majority of the space.

I enjoyed my poké bowl here! I'm a huge salmon fan and I recommend the salmon here. Everything here was super flavorful and the portion size was great You order & pay on a kiosk and then an employee will begin working on your order. They offer a few tables inside to sit in, also a table outside. If I'm in the area, I would be back again.

Absolutely Delicious Poke! I tried Pokebowl and was blown away! The poke bowl was huge and incredibly fresh. The rice was perfectly cooked, soft, and flavorful and honestly, I almost never finish all the rice anywhere, but here I couldn't leave a single grain! The fish was super fresh, the sauces were perfectly balanced, and everything came together beautifully. I also tried the Thai Tea with mango boba so refreshing and delicious! The service was fast and friendly, the place is clean and cozy. Definitely coming back and highly recommend it to anyone who loves fresh, tasty poke!

Uncle Sharkii is new to town! We visited on Sunday evening, right after things cooled down from their grand opening on Saturday. The shop is lively and clean and staff were nice. We were really hoping to get the soft serve shown on their IG, but their ice cream machine was broken. We ended up just ordering some drinks. My husband got a Thai tea and I got a mango green tea with boba. Once we got the drinks, his had boba and mine didn't. Slight disappointment because he doesn't like boba, but we didn't trouble the lady to remake it. The drinks were good, but the mango green tea had no sweetness to it. I'd recommend asking for it to be sweetened or choosing another drink. The poke bowls are the highlight and they look really good. Fresh with lots of toppings. Hoping to stop by again soon and try those!

Now, hiring apply at their website!
Jonnita W.

A bit of an unpredictable situation. Took my team here for lunch right when location opened at 11am. After our first two orders the system freezes. New associate working his first solo day had to call for support. So in the midst of we were asked to use the kiosk, as we proceeded to use the kiosk the associates shut the whole system down. So we waited for a reboot. Eventually every go there order, I ordered the number 2 bowl which has shrimp in it. But when I opened my food to eat it. I had NO shrimp in my meal. And I received my meal at about 1137. This location is also hiring. A little uniques first visit. Not saying that I wouldn't go back but it raised a yellow flag in my book. Over all was a passable extensive visit.

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.

Decided to go here the first time because we found out they have zucchini noodles available as a base option. Prime Poke is located within downtown Pleasanton. It's a very welcoming vibe here especially where they are located. They are also within a cute area where 3 small businesses are and have available outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. Food options are great. I had the 3 Protein Poke: All Salmon with Zucchini Noodles and Mixed Greens / Crab salad / Prime Poke Sauce Mild / House Aioli / Lime Ponzu / Sweet Onions / Green Onions / Carrots / Cucumbers / Seaweed Salad / Ginger / Fried Onions / Tempura Flakes / Roasted Seaweed My poke is always delicious and the salmon is super fresh. My hubby ordered the UnagiDon today with Brown Rice and Unagi Sauce on the side. He loved it.. he said it was cooked perfectly and not too sweet. Frank, Debbie and the young man here are so friendly as well as very attentive. We've had only a great experience here on both visits. We live about 40min but come to this specific Poke restaurant for the fresh ingredients and the friendly staff. We'll be back again next week.

It's a cute, little restaurant with modern decor. There's a few tables inside and also a patio as well. My daughter and I did the build your fresh poke with two proteins. We both chose salmon and tuna. I chose all the mix ins, wasabi shoyu & lime ponzu sauces, and topped it all off with furikake. It was like chef's kiss. The passion fruit tea tasted really good and was refreshing as well. So glad we discovered this gem, will definitely be returning customers whenever in the area again.

My holy grail sushi restaurant in the area that also happens to be minutes away from the outlets!…read more Been here many times and it's nice to see how the staff never sacrifices quality despite how busy it can get. The fish here is really fresh and I like how vast their menu is. If you love sushi, they got the goods. Like their sushi combos with the chef's nigiri and classic tuna and sake maki rolls. Highly recommend their special rolls as well such as the crunch spicy tuna roll (for that tempura crunch) and salmon lover special. If you're not that into sushi, they have bowls and bentos (udon, chirashi, tonkatsu). Really filling as it comes with miso soup and house salad. Overall, their fish to rice ratio is just chef's kiss. I appreciate how friendly their service is and how moderately priced everything is. More on the affordable side and large group friendly. Love this place downnnn.

Bento boxes are the way to go here…read more $20 for a decent lunch bento, standard soup and salad and your choice of protein. I got the salmon and beef teriyaki. The california roll has fake crabmeat just an FYI, and the miso soup was too salty for me, but the portion and price were good. My coworker got the fried katsu and it was freshly fried. My other coworker got the bento also with california roll and gyoza. Solid 3 stars good, not great or excellent. Slow service. Plenty of parking. Would come back again if I were in the area.

Yes, they…read moreget 5 stars from me on all areas: *Food - I ordered a Poke bowl with fresh and delicious Tuna Poke. The owner recommended that I try the Shrimp Tobiko, which was so very tasty. Both proteins were such a good quality...I was very impressed. The toppings/additions were all fresh. This is NOT your standard poke spot at all. Try it, you will taste the difference in quality. I also ordered an Osumo Cocktail - Guava Strawberry Marguerita...see my pic. It was so very good with real fruit. I could not believe it; I felt like I was on a trip to a tropical island. *Vibe - Yep, this place has a good chill vibe. Like I wrote above, I felt like I was at a cool foodie spot on a tropical island. I was so relaxed and the background music was all that and more. It was smooth, current and perfect for this spot.It had me moving a little. Osumo Poke is really a vibe. I cannot believe I am just learning about this. Well, the secret is out. The decor is well thought out and modern. Everything was so clean. *Service - Like the food and vibe, the service was excellent. The owner is a sweetheart. She provided the kind of service you would expect at your favorite spot on your favorite Hawaiian island. Y'all, just go and eat in. They also have a beer bar with flights, crepes, and so many tea and fruit drinks...and, of course, the cocktails. I am still full (3 hours later) as I write this review. Delicious, fresh, good quality food is so very satisfying. For real y'all, come and support this small business.

Both the hubby and I have been to so many different poké places around the bay, but this one is one of the best. Truly. The biggest thing is that they pack on the protein. More than the amount of scoops you're supposed to get. Every. Single. Time. And it's always fresh. One day we thought they were out of salmon, but then told us it was in the fridge to keep it fresh. When they reached into the fridge right below the counter, each perfectly cut portion had been placed on parchment paper and was waiting to be placed into a bowl. They also just recently redecorated the dining area. Much more inviting now. They even had several beers on tap. The full menu is on a screen. Also, they offer 4oz tastings as well as a flight of 5 different beers for $20. While we were there, they even had a FIFA match on the tv. We're so lucky this place is close to home!
