Bonito Poke Cafe - singing chicken (front), mochiko chicken (back), salmon sisig (right) - Hawaiian Near Me - American Canyon, California

I stopped by here to get some poke to go for lunch. I can't wait to come back! The cafe is located in the middle of a plaza. Parking was very easy. The GPS was a little confused. If you see the Dog Wash suite Bonito Poke is a couple doors down on the right side (corner unit). If you look on Google Maps I think it used to be Crave Cafe in 2022. Very cute cafe. The customer service was really above and beyond too. I asked for a recommendation and the person working took the time to ask how hungry I am and if I want spicy food to really tailor a recommendation to what he thinks I may enjoy. I was also offered water. The food came out fresh and super quickly! They included chopsticks and napkins in a cute branded paper bag. The poke was really good! I think for the basic mexi Cali poke it was $19.90. The portions are definitely worth the price! There's also the option for add ons. The fish was very fresh. They have more than just poke! They have hot items too. I'd like to come back soon to try the loco moco or other items for a weekend brunch! read more

Here you can expect delicious poke and great customer service. I've been here 3 times so far First time: I got a spicy tuna poke bowl with half rice/half greens. It was around $20 and the portion size matches. I also got an ube latte and it was perfectly sweetened and just so good Second time: I came for brunch and got the Ube Pancakes and Salmon sig sig and shrimp & grits. Enjoyed every bit. My favorite was the shrimp & grits but the pancakes were a close second. The third and most recent time: I got Lumpia and Poke Nachos. Lumpia was pretty standard the Poke Nachos was a little too mayo based/ creamy for me. I got the spicy tuna again and it didn't taste like the first time . Also unfortunately I got really sick afterwards. I know that's a risk to eating raw fish but a little disappointing. I would come back for the cooked food but probably won't gamble getting the poke again lol read more

Hidden gem in the 707. I was looking to grab poke. I came upon this spot and was expecting to create a bowl but I was seated instead! Chef Steve has reimagined how food should be served. Everything ordered from the menu is delicious. Plating, all ingredients made fresh in-house, portions are all perfect. I would recommend anyone to come and visit this place. Been going to this place regularly, thank you Chef Steve for a wonderful creation you have made. read more

I don't venture out to American Canyon much but I was craving some poke after my dental appointment nearby. The interior of the restaurant looks very modern and clean. Upon looking at the menu, I knew this place was owned by a Filipino! The owner is Chef Steve Dizon who took my order. I ordered a poke bowl and mochiko chicken. Poke is ono fresh! Mochiko chicken was big and cooked perfectly. They have sisig and lumpia on the menu which I will try next time. They have plenty of drink options too! Come by and check them out! A definite recommend. read more

Ambiance 5/5 Cool decor and soft music playing in the background. Very clean small cafe Service 5/5 Server was owner's daughter. Very friendly and checked on us throughout our meal. Food 5/5 Mochico Chicken Crunchy on the outside and tender in the inside. The chicken had both dark and white meat which you rarely see. There was a perfectamojnt of sauce on top of chicken and it was delicious. I also added the Lomi for $2 and it paired well with the chicken & salmon Salmon Sisig Made with salmon belly and it did not disappoint! Came out sizzling on the platter and the taste was awesome! Panda Ice Tea Dam! Made from cold brew extract IN HOUSE! No additional coloring or preservatives! Met the owner, Steve, who grew up in the Bay Area. He came around our table and ask how everything was and explained to us how EVERYTHING is made IN HOUSE. Even their breads. Steve is very friendly and knows what he is doing. If you have not been to this place, then it is a MUST! We plan to make this our "GO TO" spot whenever we come up toward Napa. read more

This restaurant is absolutely amazing! Everyone in the area and visiting needs to try Bonito Poke. Everything we ate was delicious, the ingredients are so fresh, the food is seasonal and almost everything is made in house. The portion sizes are very generous and you will want to eat every bite on your plate. Their spices and sauces are spot on. The atmosphere of the restaurant is so calming & tropical. Everything is clean and the decorations are really nice! Dining in is the way to go if you want to get transported to the Hawaiian islands. The service from Steve was indecible. We have never had such a nice experience at a restaurant in our lives. We felt so welcomed and it was a privilege for us to have eaten here. A true hidden gem that needs to be recognized and given more love from the community! We can't wait to come back when we are in the area. read more

I came to this hidden gem with my brother a few weeks ago, and I can positively say that the quality of the food we ordered and the customer service was spot on! I ordered the bonito poke and my brother ordered the Loco Moco with a side of the macaroni salad. The greens with salmon and tuna (I ordered extra protein) were very fresh and the serving size of the protein was more than generous. My brother's Loco Moco was extremely savory and on par with the expectations of one's favorite comfort food. The dessert, maiz con hielo, did not disappoint either. Fluffy/snow textured shaved ice with sweet corn, toasted crispy rice, milk and sugar. Absolutely delicious and refreshing! Lots of available parking! I would highly recommend Bonito Poke to friends and family. read more

Amazing poke! Came super late on accident and the owner was kind enough to still make me a bowl since I was mixed up on the times. 10/10 highly recommend! read more

Excellent food, great service, in a relaxed ambiance is the perfect way to describe Bonito Poke. After seeing their food on Instagram and TikTok I had to give them a try. Very happy I did! I Ordered the Garlic Shrimp, Garlic Noodles, and the Pork Belly plate. The Garlic Shrimp plate was the star of the show. Tender, giant prawns with a side of their sautéed garlic to dip the shrimp in was heavenly. The Garlic Noodles were cooked perfectly and had so much flavor. The Pork Belly was good, but could've had more flavor or a sauce to really highlight the pork belly itself. The Thai Iced Tea was the perfect compliment for these dishes. Looking forward to coming back! read more

Thank you for a wonderful lunch! We enjoyed their poke bowl with fresh tuna from Australia, and the Loco Moco with rice and side mac salad. Their menu included both Hawaiian and Filipino dishes, and I wish I could have tried everything. The owner presented our food on a wooden island. It was so lovely! The portion sizes were enough to take home. My girlfriend's only wish was that the gravy on her loco Moco was thicker. Otherwise, I tried it and it was ONO! Will plan to take my family and others here soon!! read more

Delicious Hawaiian and Filipino inspired menu with easy parking in American Canyon! We went on a Sunday afternoon. They had a brunch menu in addition to their regular menu. Service was friendly and attentive. I feel like we got our food fast. Bathrooms were clean. Loved the cute decor, the art, and the music they played. Plenty of seating available when we entered the restaurant. What we ordered: * Ube cloud pancakes $18 - the ube sauce was just the right amount of sweet and it had a hint of ube. I liked the blueberries that came with it. It was a stack of 5 pancakes. They were soft, but I think they could've been bigger and more fluffy. Overall pretty good though. * Mochiko chicken $17.70 - the chicken was crispy and delicious! Came with a lot of chicken too. Also came with 2 scoops of rice and a scoop of mac salad. We took leftovers home and my fiancé ate the rest the next day. * French fries $6.90 - you get a lot of fries! I liked how crisp they were but at the same time was soft on the inside. I enjoyed the ketchup and creamy sauce that came with it too. * Bonito poke $22.90 (includes extra $2 charge for mixed greens and sushi rice plus extra $2 charge for salmon) - it may seem a little pricey, but the bowl was huge! The rice had a hint of coconut to it and I loved the furikake on top. The salmon was fresh and plentiful. I liked the sauce. It wasn't salty. We took leftovers home and I split it up into 2 more meals. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge! I look forward to coming back and sampling more of the menu. read more

My colleagues and I order from here pretty regularly when I'm in the area. i normally get the "spicy" sauced fish such as spicy tuna, which always seem good and the ingredients are always fresh. Recently I tried the non-spicy version and regretted it. It tasted literally like just diluted mayo. For all businesses including this one: When you let a customer know you have a website to order from instead of DoorDash or Uber Eats to safe us money, SUPER helpful. When you let a customer know it's better to call? Not helpful. As my coworkers and I could attest, it's not easy to plan, write down, call when we're in hours long meetings. It's much easier to plan ahead, schedule or just click a button. We hope you can use Square or have a website. read more

The food was phenomenal. We ordered the Bonito Poke and Crunchy Garlic Chicken. We also had Very Brave Coffee drinks with our meal: Blush Latte and Lilimansi Matcha. The Bonito Poke was nice. I had it with spicy tuna and rice. The cucumber, edamame, and fried shallots offered a nice crunch to the dish. Loved the presentation of sesame seeds sprinkled on the fish. The tuna was fresh. The fish was not as spicy I thought it would be. The sauce was sweet. The furikake rice offered a nice balance to the flavors of the poke. The Crunchy Garlic Chicken was good. Loved the fact that they made this more garlicky than spicy. Loved the flavor of garlic on the tender chicken. The batter of the chicken was crunchy. The furikake rice balanced the garlic flavor perfectly. The lemon was a nice touch to the dish. This was a very enjoyable dish. We also ordered two drinks from the Very Brave Coffee menu. They were the Blush Latte and the Lilimansi Matcha. The Blush Latte had a nice presentation of strawberry rose, white chocolate with a cold foam. The mixture of colors was very nice. Loved the sweetness of the chocolate and the slight bitterness of the coffee. The strawberry rose floating on top was unique. The Lilimansi Matcha was good. Loved their creativity of the name. The ingredients included were calamansi nectar, passion fruit puree, and Naoki ceremonial grade matcha. The tartness of the calamansi was well balanced with the passion fruit. The matcha offered that nice bitterness you get with green tea, without it being overly bitter. Loved their creativity contrast of green tea matcha on top with the yellow calamansi and passion fruit on the bottom. Great way to end our meal. Gotta love their creativity service at this place. Everyone was very friendly and helpful upon our visit. The server made us feel very welcome and accommodated us based on our needs. The food came in a very timely manner. Everyone was very professional and efficient with their service. Glad to have stopped by here for my birthday lunch. Definitely will wanna come back again and check out their other menu items. Thank you Bonito Poke for the wonderful meal and experience! read more

This restaurant has an open kitchen concept, but has very limited seatings. I came here for their poke and it was very good. The fish is extremely fresh, all the sides were tasty, and they all complemented each other very well. The owner is super nice. He saw that i was on the younger side and ask if i was a student, and gave me a student discount. The poke is a little bit on the more expensive side, but it's worth it! read more

First time to go. The place was really nice and food tasted amazing. Also worker was friendly

We dropped in for their soft launch of brunch, and it was amazing! Everything from the food to the service exceeded our expectations. We tried the braised short ribs, pork belly tacos, wagyu burger, and an ube latte, and every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, and cooked just right. The short ribs were tender and rich, the tacos had just the right balance of savory and sweet, and the wagyu burger was juicy and full of flavor. To top it off, the ube latte was creamy, not too sweet, and so pretty! The staff was friendly and attentive, which made our experience even better. You could tell they genuinely care about both the food and their guests. If this is just their soft launch, I'm excited to see what they have in store next! I'm definitely adding Bonito Poke to my list of favorite brunch spots in the area! read more

Definitely a hidden gem & must try! Came for the Saturday night special Filipino street food collaboration & stayed for the warm & inviting service & clean restaurant. The fresh flowers on each table & mini table lamps were a nice touch. Steve's customer service was top notch. He shared his passion for Filipino representation in the culinary industry & enjoyed his detailed explanations of the items we ordered. Had the crispy chicken sinigang which was a treat! Juicy & full of flavor which is a different twist to sinigang. The mais con yelo is not your mama's typical Filipino dessert. It's creamy, airy & fluffy ice cream with the crispy topping. Delicious! We'll have to come back & try the rest of the menu. read more

Bonito Poke was a pleasantly surprising stopover we made on our way to Napa. It's been bookmarked for a while now, but since they're closed on Mondays, it didn't really coincide with our schedules. So glad we were able to come on a Tuesday to finally try it out. Chef Steven was super welcoming and knowledgeable of all the dishes. Our salads came out first and they were tasty and dressed perfectly. All of the plating was impressive as well. We ordered: Crunchy Garlic Chicken - This was my favorite thing we ordered! Loco Moco - Really hearty. The mushroom gravy was *chef's kiss* Cali Poke - I chose salmon as my protein. I forget where the chef said it was from, but the fish tasted really fresh. Like another reviewer mentioned, I do wish it was more spicy. But my fault for not asking for the sauce. Cocktails: Tropical Zen - This was sooo good! A must try if you love matcha and pandan. Strawberry Hawaiian Fizz - A fruity and tropical accompaniment if that's more your vibe. If you're craving Hawaiian food elevated with quality ingredients and preparation check out Bonito Poke. The dine-in experience was outstanding. There were many people ordering to-go too if that's a more fitting option. They also have a food truck in the financial district of SF, but I believe it's limited to poke. I would definitely come back to try the rest of the menu! read more

Bonito Poke was DELICIOUS! Our server was amazing and so professional; was giving owner vibes. I was amazed to see the change inside after having seen it as krave, they REALLY made it so gorgeous inside! I loved that the kitchen was right there so we could see them preparing the food. The fresh flowers on the table were so gorgeous! We had the nachos with won ton chips as opposed to the menu tortilla chips, they were phenomenal!! Also the bonito poke with rice, loved that spicy tuna for both dishes!! Highly recommend this spot if you've got $60 for two lunch platters. Worth the price!! read more

10/10. Its the plate lunch style food but totally another level. Weve gotten take out before but decided to dine-in and its waaay better! We got the poke nachos, garlic chicken, bbq chicken, loco moco, and some fries. Everything was shockingly good. Fish was fresh for the Poke with great flavor and loco moco one of the best ive had. Even the roasted sesame dressing on the salad was special. Not the same as the bottled one from costco. Tastes like their making everything from scratch. Definitely would go back. read more

Ordered to go but the inside of the restaurant was clean and vibrant, however the traditional poke bowl's very salty! Both tuna and spicy tuna were hard to finish even with rice because of the saltiness. Hawaiian chicken bowl was pretty good though, meat was tender and flavorful. Must try the Pandan iced tea too. Staff could also be a little friendlier :) read more

Bonito poke isn't just known for just their poke, but for other dishes on their menu. My husband loves their truffle fries and I love how Steve, the owner, told us the story on how he came up with the recipe and how he worked with RH restaurant in Yountville. Steve is a great guy to just chat with all around. This place was previously owned by Crave, and he seriously flipped it and made it into a contemporary casual style restaurant. I go here also for very brave coffee on either Tuesday or Wednesday. Great business strategy as well. read more

The poke nachos are sooooo good! I come here every time I'm in town. I can't recommend it more.

This is a hawaiian poke spot located at Canyon Plaza. It was recommended by a friend so we tried their poke one weekday afternoon. Fancy place compared to other hawaiian poke places. I would love to help local businesses however, the order was somehow messed up. I ordered a Bonito poke: greens only and spicy tuna. I got greens and rice, and the spicy tuna wasn't spicy at all. Pricey compared to my usual poke place but located in a different county. The place is clean and nice but so noisy (not the business' fault) and I wish I brought earphones just like the lady sitting next to us. Great customer service. Plenty of parking space. Looking forward to try again and have a pleasant experience. read more

My wife and I were visiting for the weekend and we saw this highly rated poke place on Yelp, so we decided to come give it a try. When we entered the restaurant, the staff was very nice and patient as we were deciding on what to order. They were very willing to answer any questions that we had. My wife ordered the Loco Moco, which came with mixed greens and a Mac salad, and I ordered the traditional poke with rice and spicy tuna. We were used to eating poke from plastic or paper take out containers, so when our dish came out on a glass plate, we were a little surprised. It was like a mini fine dining for poke! My wife enjoyed her loco moco and the server brought out an extra container of gravy. I ended up using half of that gravy to pour over the white rice and it was delicious! I also enjoyed my traditional poke and with spicy tuna. Usually, I see spicy tuna ground up, but the spicy tuna for this dish was cut up into cubes with jalapenos on top. This was a nice change and the dish was tasty. Overall, I would recommend coming to try the food here. There is a lot of variety and you can't go wrong! read more
