| - So let me just start by saying we(me and my fellow foodie at work) were looking for something to eat today and wanted something new. We wanted sushi but were a little burnt out on our favorite spot Mr. Tokyo. I looked for something close that did takeout and stimbled upon this little gem.
Now I've heard of poke, but never went out to try it and and always thought pokeritos were going to be a bit overwhelming and was just a fad so I avoided it.
Boy was I wrong. I called in a build your own bowl and burrito for my friend and it was ready in about 10 minutes to pickup.
You can view the menu to see the options to customize the bowl, it was exciting to pick what I wanted like this. The chef reccomended the sushi rice as he said it was most popular, and I went with the Ahi Tuna because raw was on my mind. I had it mixed with 5 items: mixed greens, jalapeno, red cabbage, tempura flakes and cilantro. Then I had it topped with seaweed salad and their in-house poke sauce. It looked amazing like the best salad I've ever gotten, for takeout I knew I was in for a treat. I mixed in a little of the offered soy sauce and wasabi and went to town.
You wanna talk about fresh? It was a foodies wetdream. The tuna was so flavorful and melted in my mouth and the combination of other flavors just meshed together perfectly. They really are on point with their sushi rice, some the best I have ever had. The whole bowl is eatable using chopsticks which was a major plus for me.
The sauce added so much unique flavor and combined with the soy and seasoning of the seaweed salad I was in heaven.
My buddy got a soy paper wrap with spicy tuna, seaweed salad, poke sauce and similiar items as my bowl and got one for his son who also works with us and they were both impressed so I'll definitely reccomend and try it next time.
We brought menus for some coworkers and the whole office was jealous and wanted to try it from looks alone and everyone said it smelled amazing.
Me and my friend both agreed these gentelman know what they are doing and have it down pat. This is definitely going to be a weekly lunch spot for us now.
Bravo gentlemen, bravo.
