| - Cute little poke spot at the corner of King and Bathurst. It's small, so easy to miss, but well worth stopping by.
The decor first of all, is incredibly cute and Hawaiian-themed. Very bright, has a wall of greenery, and a cute neon pink sign. Lots of great backdrops for taking photos of your poke bowl. There are two long tables along the walls, but limited seating. It's more of a grab and go type of place.
I ordered their Lazy California bowl, though you can also build your own if you don't like their set options. My favourite thing is that you can customize your base, and have zucchini noodles instead of rice. I opted for half zucchini noodles and half brown rice, and loved how much lighter the bowl became. Traditional poke bowls with rice have always had too much rice for me. The toppings were all incredibly fresh and flavourful. I especially loved the soy sauce that they gave me on the side. It was a bit sweeter than the usual soy sauces, and also had a bit of a kick to it.
Their bowls are smaller than most other poke places, but that didn't bother me as I have a smaller appetite and have trouble finishing my meals most of the time. This was the perfect size for me.
I love this place and will most definitely come again to DIY my own bowl, and try some of their other set bowls as well!
