| - Staff is very nice, in a great neighborhood, and is a unique offering as well.
What brought me here was the Ice Cream - but also got some poke as well. They have a vegetarian version so it was nice to see that.
I'll start off with the poke - it was made well, tasted ok, but it's basically ALL RICE. I got the largest size of a veggie option, and it was laughable how much rice the dish was made up of. Maybe, maybe, 6 spoon fulls of the non-rice ingredients on the top and the rest of the big bowl was all rice. I hate to be harsh with a review, but it's too offensive to not let it impact my review. My tip to the owners: don't be cheap, especially when your vegie option is the same price as the fish ones. Maybe you can put so little on a fish options IDK, but paying 15+ dollars for a few cubes of tofu with some vegies and a GIANT GIANT bowl of rice is nuts.
Next the ice cream - it was good. They were having problems with their machine so I couldn't have the flavor I wanted. Had Cherry/Chocolate swirl on the fish. It was tasty, but very average too. More of an Instagram moment. The Ube was DELICIOUS, I tried a little of it from my co-diner who got it in a cup cause it was too soft for the fish cake.
I would try this place again perhaps, but I really hope they change their stance on how much rice they use in the poke.
