| - Poke was love at first bite for me. That was in Hawaii many years ago, and Phoenix has been slow to catch up to the growing trend.
Ahipoki Bowl out in Scottsdale is pretty decent, so I was happy to hear they were opening a location directly down the street from me. They were supposed to open their doors earlier this year, but it's almost a third of the way into 2017 and still no Ahipoki Bowl for Tempe.
Still, my roommate and I had a hankering for some poke and checked to see if Ahipoki Bowl was open by searching poke on Yelp. Instead, this place Pokedon pops up, isn't too far from us, and just opened.
Safe to say I'll be skipping on Ahipoki Bowl when it opens and instead I'll just be coming straight here. Pokedon not only has more options, but I think the ingredients are of higher quality. To say I was satisfied was an understatement, I've found a new favorite dig in Tempe.
Also, A+ on the staff. It was a slow Sunday afternoon and they took their time to interact and walk us through all of the different sauces and ingredients. Super chill and very friendly. The food is gonna bring me back, but the staff makes it easy to confirm that.
