I have ordered delivery from them several times (through Uber eats) and I have not been disappointed. The freshness and quality of the bowl is wonderful even when delivered. The portion is hearty and a good value for the price. I plan to continue ordering and hopefully eat in one of these days.
Update: been coming here regularly. It’s excellent food. Fresh, fast, healthy. My kids love it. So happy this is close to me!Went to poke burrito twice now... delicious fresh food both times and excellent service. To me it seems like a really great price for all the super fresh ingredients.
Fresh poke! So fresh they’ll cut the avocado right in front of you before adding the toppings.Endless topping options and combinations for little to no extra cost (depending on the items). Great prices too (large salad about $10).Add great service and you’ve got a winner here!
Ordered on DoorDash and order got cancelled after waiting for an hour. Called and they were not helpful whatsoever. I had to call DoorDash to find out they were having technical issues when I places my order. It is completely possible for them to shut off their doordash orders completely but they didn’t do so, nor did they explain why I didn’t get my food. Won’t be ordering from here again.
The bowls are delicious! I usually get a regular sized bowl, which is enough to fill you home if you get a rice or quinoa. Today I had the large bowl with half romaine and white nice and three proteins. Love that there is a lot of options for toppings. I had a long day but was still energetic after eating because it doesn’t it doesn’t make you feel like you ate a lot. Great for lunch or dinner, so far my favorite spot for poke in Astoria.
I like this spot. Its on the cheaper end for poké, but the fish is still incredibly fresh. They have everything a normal poké spot has. They are generous with portion size.The only issue is, they dont really marinate the sauces with your protein like some poké spots do when you order.Based on the number of times Ive been here, I still like it.
PROS: Good prices, decent ingredients overall, fast service, good in a pinch for a mealCONS: Lack of good flavor, wasabi aioli tasted like watered down mayo, the “spicy salmon” is not fresh and is just salmon goop/paste, not actually spicy and not chunks of fresh salmon with spicy sauce as other poke establishments typically offerOverall, not great poke / sushi grade. Wouldn’t come back for another order.
Great poke for a great price. I got a lot of value from this gigantic meal. The bowls are bigger than other places and they don’t hold back if you want everything in them. The spicy salmon, spicy tuna and FRESH crab meat is a huge plus. Will have to hit this spot more if I’m going to stick to my Keto diet.
Ive eaten here several times. Food is always fresh and delicious. I must give special credit as they dont charge extra for avocados in your bowl (other poke places Ive been to charge extra for the avocado) They also have free water which is a refreshing change. Staff are friendly and provide quick service. My favourite poke place in Astoria :)
I either order for pick up or eat in, there’s no difference in the quality of food. It’s always fresh & healthy to eat here. They are always friendly & answer any questions you have when you are building your poke. I always have mine with soba noodles they taste so amazing. Even though I get the $10 “small” 2 protein poke, I always eat half & save the other half in the fridge for later that day it is very filling.
Poke Burrito is the superior to all poke places by leaps and bounds.What does everyone hate about poke places? They try to up charge you for all the delicious toppings. Want extra sauce? $.50 Want crunchy toppings? $1 Want avocado? For the fair price of your first born child.Poke Burrito doesnt do this. You get a full bowl of whatever toppings you want for one flat reasonable price + friendly service. And everything is so fresh and delicious! I recommend the mango and the lotus crunches.My partner and I eat here at least 3 times a month and I tell him everytime, as I shove fresh salmon in mouth, that I need to write a review cause a place that really cares about their customers deserves their customers sharing the love. So finally, here it is!
My girlfriend ordered two poke bowls for pickup, and both of them were objectively not good. Mine had tuna, and each piece was either so sinewy that it was like chewing rope, or so soft that it basically felt like slimy goo in my mouth. Her salmon was the same. Both poke bowls were inedible, and we wound up throwing them out.Never coming back here again.
Food is very well priced for the quality and amount of food you get. Soon as I had this for the first time I cant stop getting it. It tastes amazing and fresh and is highly customizable, ensuring you can have a different experience every time. Cant recommend this place enough.
So reasonably priced. Unlike Chipotle they dont charge you extra for avocado lol. They have so many delicious flavors and sauces. All the food is fresh and healthy! Cant recommend this place enough! As a vegetarian I did not feel left out at all by the menu. As a tip, it does seem like you get more food from the bowl than the burrito. Happy eating ;).
The poke here is always top notch and the portion sizes are immense. I often also order from this poke burrito location, and it seems that they load even more on if thats possible. One thing that is very nice is that all the extras, for example avocado (yes even avocado in this day and age! Not guacamole though) are free, and no limits to how many you can add.
Finally got to try their food today and was so very impressed. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. I got the large poke bowl and shumai. The prices are decent and I appreciate the fact that they dont charge extra for things like mango and avocado. Also, I like that they also have some hot food like shumai and gyoza. Will definitely be coming back to try more items on their menu.
Ordered delivery.Wasn’t happy about my food one bit. Ordered a Classic Hawaiian bowl, took two bites & put the fork down. You know those restaurants where the presentation of the food is great, but the taste of the food is meh. Yeah, that was this experience for me. The bowl had all the ingredients it needed, but no taste. The fish didn’t taste fresh nor was it marinated properly, so I basically had unflavored raw fish on my rice. Even the rice couldn’t get a pass, it was way too soggy & clumpy, if that makes any sense (& no, dining in wouldn’t have made much a difference). I was excited to try this place, but I’ll stick to my usual Poké spot in Astoria.
I had a burrito with brown rice, ahi tuna, salmon and bunch of fresh veggies and fruit wrapped in a seaweed wrap... Making it similar to a giant sushi roll. The burrito is wrapped in paper and you tear the paper as you eat (similar to a burrito in many restaurants). The burrito was very tasty... I added some soy sauce to give it the full sushi flavor experience. I enjoyed my experience there. It only takes a minute or two for them to make the burrito. The restaurant was very clean and well maintained. I would come back again.

2022-07-11I was craving build your own poke so badly and this was the only option in the area. Price wise they are cheap and their menu selection is decent. I love that they have bay scallops as an option. Quality wise, the worst poke Ive ever had. The rice was super dry and wet at the same time and the noodles were overcooked to a point where I couldnt pick up more than a little 2 inch piece without it disintegrating on my fork. The spicy tuna and salmon my boyfriend got was sooooo tasteless and was mashed to living hell. It tasted and felt like pure fish paste thats been run through a machine. All the other additional ingredients were low quality store bought/canned stuff which I expect at poke places but some were extra bad. The crab salad was just shredded fake crab without mayo. The corn tasted fresh out the can and the edamame was mush too. The seaweed salad was fine and the avocado was absolutely perfect and beautiful but of course you pay an extra $1 for it. All the fish had that slight slimey fishy smell tho not enough to make you sick at least. Then again I cant say I ate enough of it to know. We looked for little edible corners of this bowl and found almost none. After an hour of picking at it cause I hate wasting food we ended up having to trash both bowls barely eaten cause neither of us could stomach it.Also we we told the employees we were eating at the park and asked for forks and napkins. We got forks and no napkins...Never touching this place again.

2022-04-22I asked for no onions in my order. My order was done within 2 minutes of cashing out. There were plenty of white and green onions in my bowl. I had to pick it all out.

2022-07-05Horrible portion. I chose 3 salmon portions and that is the amount of protein they gave me. Gave 3 stars because it tasted good still.

2021-06-29Ordered online a few times from here and my friends and I enjoyed the poke bowls. However, this time and other times, they’ve always left out our drinks. The issue today was finding a staple mixed into our food today. Overall, the food is good but the attentiveness to our order wasn’t at the same level.

2022-06-27Its actually thanks to Guy Fieri on DDD that I was interested in trying poke. Unfortunately, I was unsatisfied with the portion size that I got. I couldve had 2-3 of these poke burritos, so one left me feeling very hungry.Despite that, I enjoyed the flavor and trying out something new. I also ordered the seaweed and even if I enjoyed it, its flavor knight be a little strong for some out there.The mango orange drink I ordered was delicious. It wasnt too thick, as most mango juices/nectars tend to be, so that was nice. Even if I thought it was delicious, I doubt Ill be having these on a regular basis due to the sugar content.Honestly? I feel a bit bummed out with what I had. For the $50 I paid I couldve eaten like a king around my neighborhood. I know that the price is most likely due to this being food largely based around fresh tuna, but the large poke burrito I tried was more like a medium.I most likely would order from this restaurant at a later time, but it wont be the first that comes to mind when I think of ordering from uber eats.

2020-07-12I always heard of the sushi burrito places but never got to try before. It might be the best concept idea. I got my sushi fix 100x over. They are generous with the amounts they put in and it was delicious for a great price of - $9.99 + tax for a regular. I was happy with my burrito size, taste, everything! 100% would come back :)
