| - This place serves poke items, meaning fish served with various items such as salad, rice, avocados, etc... After hearing so much about this place, I was disappointed by how mediocre it was. I have been to other smaller poke restaurants around town and this was by far the worst one I've been to.
The restaurant itself has a very trendy, clean interior design. This location in particular feels very new. One would order food at a counter. You basically go through a line, tell them what you want, and they scoop it for you, similar to Chipotle or Cafe Rio. You pay at the end of the counter and seat yourself at a table of your choosing. I purchased an extra large half/half poke bowl for about $13 after tax. I felt it was a little pricey compared to other places, especially since it was only three scoops of seafood. The rice itself was really dry and the fish lacked flavor. One of the fish items I ordered was the spicy tuna. I am not a spicy-addict, so I can usually taste spiciness. This spicy tuna was not even remotely spicy... They serve the food in a clear to-go container, and makes it convenient for carryout, but cheapens the feel and presentation. They do have large portion size so that is a bonus. The customer service was mediocre. One guy sensed that it was my first time there so he was extremely helpful. Once he passed me off to another employee, he was less helpful, and offered little guidance.
Overall, mediocre food with mediocre service. Restaurant is nice but is lacking overall.
