    I love me a good poke spot and this happens to be in Studio City in the plaza with Sprouts and Cava. Really clean place and affordable prices/you get a good amount for what you pay for. I got me a small size (2 fish) for $16 which was just enough to keep me satisfied. They also have so many toppings and sauces to choose from and my container was filled. It was a delicious meal and kept me filled. Would go back again!

    Deliciousness. Flavorful toppings..

    Wow, Wow, and did I say WOW!?! Yesterday I told my son to bring something from this restaurant. I am SO surprised at myself that living so close to this 8oz Poke, being in this shopping center all 32 years of living in Studio City, wanting to try their food and finally got a chance to get my teeth into their flavorful, delicious, yummy Poke. I told my son to take photos of the place and he did. I ordered their large Poke with all the healthy meat & vegetables that you can think of. I chose white rice for my base and got :Ahi Tuna, Albacore Tuna, Tofu, Shrimp, Cucumber Salad, Avocado($0.50), Pickled Ginger, Green/Red onion, Corn ,and really fresh Cilantro garnished all around the large bowl. It came with 2 sauces. House sauce and Garlic Panzu sauce. One of the sauces had a little spice to it and it gave a good kick. Absolutely delicious! They have a lot of to go orders and the lady who helped my son was Karina. He said she was very sweet, kind, and helpful. Everything was balanced right. I even had some left overs for the following day. Great portion for the price.$24.15 including tax and tip. Place was clean, with gender neutral restroom and parking shared with other businesses. They also have another location in Sherman Oaks. Can't wait to try that one too.. Thank you Karina, management and 8oz Poke...

    Stunning food and it was delicious! Great options and good for the price and the quality compared to other poke. So far it's my top 2 poke places in the valley!! Definitely coming back

    they have salmon belly for poke!  so good.

    If you're looking for the best poke in LA, 8oz Poke in Studio City is it. I'm a huge poke fan and I've tried a lot of places, but this one is consistently on another level. Everything tastes fresh, the shop is always clean, and the quality is never hit-or-miss--it's excellent every single time. You can also tell the owner-chef really knows what they're doing (the sauces are amazing). My go-to order: * Base: half sushi rice + half mixed greens * Protein: salmon + spicytuna (or salmon only if you want extra buttery) * Toppings: avocado, cucumber, edamame, seaweed salad, corn, onions, cilantro * Crunch: crispy onions + masago (so good) * Sauce combo: spicy mayo + ponzu (or shoyu/soy-based) * Finish: sesame seeds + a little extra sauce on the side I eat lunch here all the time and I've honestly never been disappointed. Highly recommend--this place deserves way more hype.

    Pretty tasty poke. A little pricy but that's the going rate now. You follow a selection of base, proteins and side, and get unlimited toppings. Bathroom is nice and water is available. You can also order boba drinks from a tablet. Parking can get crowded in the same complex as Sprouts, Cava, Urbane Cafe and Ohana bbq.

    Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Food was nutritious and tasty, and I love that we can add kale salad to the base. There was no yellowtail for the protein, so that was a bummer. If they did have yellowtail, I would've gotten the medium where I chose 3 protein options. Service was quick and convenient! It's located inside a mall so there is plenty of parking, except you may have some trouble during the weekend/peak lunch time. Ambiance is clean and spacious. I'd come back here if I'm craving for poke again. There's one in Sherman Oaks and Studio City, yay!

    This poke spot hooks it up with the portions and the fish quality is the best in the valley! Unique offerings, fast and easy service. Seating area was clean and overall I was happy with my visit here!

    Spicy tuna and Salmon Large
    Christina H.

    Probably one of the best poke I've ever had in LA. I got the spicy tuna and salmon large bowl to share with my husband and we were both satisfied by the end of our meal. Everything was super fresh and delicious. Salmon is buttery and they give great portions. Service was quick and there were lots of seating at 7pm on a weekend! Parking is ample since there's a Sprouts in the same plaza. Highly recommend!!

    Ginny Y.

    A new Sprouts opened up in the same area, they share a parking lot. We went to Sprouts going in for groceries, but I think it's wise to avoid going into a grocery store hungry. We went to 8oz Poke because it was nearby and it sounded interesting. We walked in and were greeted immediately with a friendly smile. The staff was patient while looked over the menu and options. There's a lot to choose from which is great, with lots of topping options. It's a good size for a good price. And it was yummy! We were very pleased. The seating area was good, different options and it felt like a fast food place with sit down seats but it was still nice. Would come back again.

    Nothing beats poke in Hawaii, but this is easily the best local poke spot I've found. The freshness of the fish is outstanding and really makes every bite. The salad portion is a little small, but the quality more than makes up for it. They offer a great variety of delicious sauces, and the staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

If you don't want to serve food close to closing time, just say that upfront instead of pulling a blatant bait-and-switch. Utterly dishonest and terrible customer service. Had issues with the tablet and when I tried to explain the confusion to the staff, they repeatedly cut me off and wouldn't let me properly explain what I was seeing, confidently insisting on what they assumed the problem was. They just ended up wasting more of my "20 minutes". Ontop of that the amount of guest they turned away was baffling. If you want a better experience, stick with Panda Express where they are upfront about what you can order and always treat you right.

Cold seafood - 5/5 Lobster claws are on the smaller sized, but they taste fresh. Shrimp & oysters were all good too. The main attraction is the crab legs. They are plump, but very briney. In the back, they do offer a boiling pot to warm up your cold seafood. Buffet 4/5 The half baked lobsters are good, just too rich in cream and cheese to eat too many of them. Prime rib isn't as tender as I would hope, but it was perfectly cooked. Lamb chops were smothered in some type of chimichurri sauce that made them way too salty. They should have the sauce on the side. The Asian section didn't look like good quality food. I would skip it, especially for this price. Desert 2.5/5 Huge selection, but every desert sucked. They're just poor quality. The crepe looks good, but it's too thick. Service 5/5 The servers are always going around filling up drinks and taking away the tray for shells.

We happened to be there during Happy Hour. Happy Hour is M-F from 2-6pm. We ordered Margarita and Landshark Lager beer. They were both good. They were cold and refreshing. We also had shrimp tacos, cheeseburger and nachos from their happy hour menu. They were all delicious. The food came out quickly. My only complaint is that we do have to sit at the bar area to take advantage of the happy hour menu and pricing. I think it would have been more comfortable to sit at the main dining room area instead of cramming everyone at the bar counter while the rest of the restaurant was empty.

We came here on a Friday for lunch and we were seated immediately. Not that many other customers so service was pretty attentive and was there whenever we needed a water refill. I do have to say the theming of the restaurant is on point and I felt more at a tropical getaway at a beach than I did in an urban cement hellscape which is super nice. There is A LOT to look at from the decor on the walls and even on the ceiling, the tropical "birds", beach set pieces, pictures of Jimmy himself and much more. However, I do think it being a weekday lunch contributed to a bit of how bland everything was since it looks like it can be popping on a weekend night or when there's a live band playing on their stage. As for the food, I think this was a tad disappointing. If you stripped away the theming, I would not be able to tell this restaurant apart from any of the much more common, cheaper sit down restaurant franchises out there. I guess, never keep expectations too high, or at the very least with the "themed" restaurants in the US, it's just the decor and aesthetics and not necessarily the menu. I don't drink, but the others who did said their margaritas were decent. Nothing to write home about and similar to what they could possibly get elsewhere. I do have to say that they have a limited drink menu based on the Fan Fest Nights. My boyfriend got the Jurassic Park themed one and said it was a tad too sweet, but overall just a standard fruity alcoholic drink. I got a non-alcoholic pina colada and it tastes like a yummy pineapple coconut creamy slush. Not bad, but not substantial either. I got poke nachos and my friend got a poke bowl and it's literally the same poke but just with different carbs. Overall, it was mediocre at best. Can't really compare to places that do their own poke bowls, but the amount of tuna was not that much and I'll be honest, I wish there was at least a little more variety to this (choosing the protein for the poke, but alas). Other than that, the menu has the standard affair of pasta, Mexican dishes, chicken, salad, burgers, etc. Almost $200 for 4 people, so it was already a pricey start to the day and the fact that it was for just okay food that can easily be found elsewhere, I think I'd skip dining here unless it was super lively or there was more seasonal menu items.

Will have to introduce my coworkers to this place too! From the start, we had the warmest welcome from Paul who brought us to our table and took our drink orders and recommended some coffees to my wife. He also told us about the specials and showed us menu of special fall drinks (think pumpkin spice lattes) available now. All sounded delicious. Our drinks came a couple minutes later. So quick! After Paul, we got Rachel as our waitress - she was so sweet and welcoming. She was soooooo patient with us as we tried to figure out what to order. Now onto the yummy food! We split the entrees between my wife and I so we can try both plates. We ordered the following: Brisket Breakfast Burrito: Labeled as their "#1 Seller" and rightfully so! The brisket is cooked to perfection - tender, soft and moist. Simply delicious! It comes with scrambled eggs, slow-roasted brisket, sautéed onions/peppers, breakfast potatoes, 4 cheese mexican blend, house-made chipotle aioli and served with house-made salsa verde. It also came with a side of lime mint watermelon. It paired perfectly with the burrito! Lemon Ricotta Berry Bliss French Toast: A well-balanced dish and not overly sweet! It's made with brioche bread dipped in a cinnamon & vanilla egg batter and comes with fresh berries, a scoop of house-made lemon ricotta, drizzled with ghirardelli vanilla sauce, topped with powdered sugar, lemon zest, whipped cream and a side of pure maple syrup (upon request). Rachel kept checking in on us throughout our meal and asked if we needed anything. There was one point when she noticed I was running low on salsa verde for my breakfast burrito and she asked if I wanted more. I said yes, and she brought it right out. Now that's service! Rachel and Paul are amazing! When we went, they also decked the place out in a fall theme and had all the adorable decorations out. There's ample validated self-parking available in the back. If you go really early and the parking attendant isn't there to give you a ticket, the servers inside the restaurant will stamp a receipt for you that you give the attendant on the way out that you'll use as a validated ticket. Overall, great food and great service. Will definitely be back. Thank you again!
