  • Waited until the hype for this place died down a little before trying it. I was excited to see that poke was finally available in Calgary and hoping that a place specializing in a limited menu would offer high quality ingredients. Found parking irritating here as I only saw street parking with most of them being permit only. I asked when I was inside and they did say that parking was available behind the complex. The place is much smaller than I thought, with very limited seating to eat there. I would not recommend for people with children to attempt to eat there as I did not see any chairs suitable for kids. The only difference between a large and a regular (from what I could see) was that they add 3 vs 2 scoops of the protein of choice. I opted for the traditional as I wanted the tuna while my bf chose the special. We both selected the spinach for the base for a lighter option. Probably an unfair comparison after eating sushi/sashimi in Japan, but I found the bowls in general lacking a lot of flavour. I found the traditional barely had any flavour that I even took the bowl home and added mangoes to it. The special was a bit better and had a bit more flavour as there were more toppings to it but overall, both bowls seemed like something I could easily whip up in my own kitchen. The seaweed salad in the bowls reminded me of costco's packaged seaweed salad and I didn't feel like either of the tuna or salmon were marinated enough or of amazing quality. We also tried the hot dog which was actually pretty good - a tad on the salty side but a great value for the dog plus a pop. It would be a nice option for someone who wants to eat here with friends but maybe doesn't want any seafood. The staff were nice enough at the location but someone had been eating Tim Horton's while working the cash and left a bag of half eaten chicken wrap or something next to the till. Gross. Seems like mostly younger kids working here so maybe they need a little refresher on working in food. I lost my appetite while paying for my food and then taking it home to find a underwhelming quality of tuna and salmon.. I would maybe build my own bowl if I decide to return next time. I would still give this place a try if you are looking for a poke specialty place in Calgary as I have heard many rave about the place and maybe I just visited on an off day.
