Intel from other Yelpers, I knew to get here early. I was already 3rd in line when I arrived shortly before 11AM. As soon as the gates opened up, the line was at least 20 people deep down the +15!
Although the poke bowl assembly line was pretty efficient, those new or unsure about what they want (you can spot these people gazing & looking lost at all the options) really hold up the line, unfortunately.
For $10.50 for a regular bowl, you get the option of your base (rice, greens or tortillas), 2 scoops of protein (tuna, salmon, octopus or vegan), sides (variety of veggies), sauces and toppings.
I went with a mix of ahi tuna & salmon in spicy mayo, side of crab & avocado (these were an additional $2) on brown rice. Everything was really fresh, the down side is that you can't really mix your bowl or else you'll cook the fish (and any of the veg) in the steaming hot rice.
I enjoyed my poke bowl, and since I didn't really have to wait very long (aside from the indecisive people ahead of me in line), obviously I thought it was worth the wait. I'm not sure if I'd say the same if I had been 10th or 20th in line.
If you get hangry like I do, maybe let the hype die down before venturing over. Or go super early like I did :)
