| - Love love love! I finally got to check out Pittsburgh Poke last night. Have you ever been to Chipotle? Or Hello Bistro? You essentially "design" what you eat...meet - Pittsburgh Poke
First start is a base - brown or white rice, quinoa (+$1), salad or half/half. I went brown rice and quinoa. (I personally love quinoa in my salads - so I bet it would be a great half/half with lettuce too!) Side note: Doing the half/half gets you around the extra $1 for quinoa too!
Second stop - meat! You get 2 choices for the $10.99 option. Personally - that was PLENTY. I chose to get 2 scoops of salmon - but they have alll kinds of choices (Salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, chicken, etc).
Third stop is mix ins - avocado, cucumber, carrot, etc. They have a TON of great mix ins. It seems that you could pick as many as you wanted.
Fourth - toppings/dressing - I got the ginger sesame. I added some soy sauce as they don't give you a ton of sauce - so the little bit of extra soy sauce was helpful.
The only downfall was the air conditioner was broken. You would think - raw fish...no air...should I be nervous? Nope! Their fish is fresh, phenomenal and tasty. We didn't eat on site because of the air problem - but still quick service, phenomenal food, and quick and easy to go - all for $12 (a little more with tip!)
The only thing - I wish they were open a little later on week nights. I get that lunch is their BIG crowd (understandably!) But maybe on sport event nights and/or show nights - stay open a bit later than 7. It's hard to get down there sometimes.
I definitely can not wait to go back. Maybe a burrito next time. It was SO good.
