I would only come here on a Tuesday, because of their $10.95 pokerrito special. Otherwise, their…read morepoke bowls are pretty expensive (~$20-23). I got the miso salmon pokerrito, and saw the salmon was this sad looking slab of fish vacuum sealed, then taken out and microwaved Flavour wise it was okay, I liked the miso sauce on top.

Pokerrito is my number one favourite poke spot in metro Vancouver!! I usually go to the Burnaby…read morelocation since it's close to my work. It's so convenient to just pop by and grab a poke bowl and pokerrito. I love how they have such a big selection of fish and toppings to choose from. I used to opt for the pokerrito, but they realllly stuff it and it's been getting really messy, so now I usually go for the regular poke bowl. My favourite combos are their crab meat, edamame, cherry tomatoes, corn, tomago, pineapple and seaweed salad. I especially love how the crab meat tastes (and texture is) exactly like the ones I get from my favourite sushi place. You can choose between brown, white rice, salad, or a mix for the base. However, you just get their kale salad (an extra 1.50?), it's absolutely delicious. Their portion sizes aren't bad either, depending on who makes it. Service is hit or miss! Depending on who works, you'll either get great, good or mid service. I'd say I get at least good service 75% of the time, which is pretty high considering I go pretty often! My only real complaint is that their prices keep going up, up, up (yes I understand inflation) but their portions have been around the same or even less.

I went for brunch but ended up ordering off their lunch menu and the smash burger I ordered was delicious !

Because there were a lot of people, parking was a bit hard to get but there is street parking. Also I would recommend getting a reservation in advance and if you can't get a type of table online, be sure to call to see if they have availability. The food itself was good! I got the brunch bowl and the flavours were very good! The bowl came with pave potatoes but they were at the bottom so they were a bit soggy compared to if they were on the side for eggs benny. The portion was ok but wished there was a little bit more for the price. My friends all enjoyed their food.

I took Tex mex bowl with tofu . It had beans some veggies and tofu . Service was fast. Bowl was on the bland end a bit. Quantity was okay. Everything was fresh in taste.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE !!…read more Wow, just wow. I've been here a few times before and it has never been THIS bad. Today, we went in. The lady behind the counter could hardly understand me. While taking my order, another women came up and they started looking at an iPad about a SkipTheDishes order. I had to wait for them to finish to keep ordering. They where supposed to put guacamole on my 1 salad, and they charged me for it, plus a random 50 cent charge for banana peppers I never ordered. Like what ? Ok fine. I told them about the 50 cent charge and she just replied "yes". I'm like, why am I being charged for banana peppers I didn't order, again she just says "yes". Frustrated I say ok whatever. No point to argue over a few cents. Go outside, I see not only did they not even put in the banana peppers they charged me for; but, the guacamole I paid $3 for was not in the salad either. So now I've paid $3.50 for things I didn't receive . Pretty irritating ! Open my other salad and they forgot to put tomatoes on it. I go back to the store and ask them, hey, you guys charged me for this and forgot to put it on. She replies "yes, guac is extra" like, I know. I've paid for it but didn't get it. They argued with me for about 5 minutes before handing me a tiny container of guacamole. To top it all off, after arguing, paying nearly $30 for 2 salads, I finally get to eat, and there's a fly in my lettuce. Seriously, I don't understand what happened here today. I was charged for several things I didn't receive, then had to argue to get what I paid for, then I found a fly in my lettuce . I used to come here pretty often but that's going to change. I suggest everybody stay far away- go somewhere else. The chopped leaf down town or the one In Port Coquitlam are MUCH better. You actually get what you pay for without being argued with. Pretty disgusted with my experience here today.

I was also able to ask for extra chilli oil to pour onto my dish for extra spice. Near the end of my dish, they also gave a complementary bowl of rice to mix into the remaining sauce and meats. It was a great way to finish the meal.

The mix of flavours from the tomato sauce with the raw garlic makes it very tasty. They give you a scoop of rice to finish the sauce and clean the bowl. It's a satisfying meal. Now that I tried this, abura soba isn't a mystery anymore.

Stumbled across this place randomly. This place serves a surprisingly high variety of food…read more Parking is available on Kingsway, as well as the side streets. I thought it was a burger place befoer looking at the menu. They do fish & chips, salads, wraps, burgers, burritos, fried chicken, and fries. This is pretty impressive I must say. Special mention. I just stood there and stared. The menu boards inside the restaurant run the entire length of the counter. Staff are friendly, though the ordering is quite slow. As Andrew M mentioned, the layout is indeed quite inefficient. There are only 4 small tables (8 seats total) for the entire place, along a wall. The rest of it is one giant kitchen. Best to do takeout to be honest. The fish and chips were pretty decent, but quite pricy. Not great value. Fries were honestly quite mediocre. I'd stick to the cheaper items such as wraps or burgers. Wouldn't mind coming back to try some of the other stuff at some point.

As an avid foodie, let me break down all the hits, misses, and support…read more 1) Fresh: everything is freshly made to order (eg fries, burger), else held in a proper temp hold w Staub pots. They're the best & extremely expensive. Chef knows his hold temps too! See pics. OMG I saw someone order falafel plate and they got huge, made to order falafel!!! My next visit is this!!! 2) Clean: The whole restaurant was clean (minus the table behind us who left). Nice open kitchen so you can see everything. I don't know if chef will kill me, but he offered us the staff-only handwashing station bc we came in filthy after a day of gardening. I don't know if this is offered to every guest. But people need clean hands & a toilet. This is why you won't get above 4* 3) Food: Chef offered me if I didn't love his recommendation, he would pay double. I ate 1 bite and told him to keep his $$. He offered me the Crunchy Chicken Wrap. It's SOOOO loaded w chicken & huge, made 2 meals for me. But next time I really want spicy chicken, or Angry fish. 4) Place: I give the place 3.5 stars...only bc there's only 8 seats (very busy), and no toilet. I was happy chef let us wash our hands but I think this was a one off. People need a place to wash their hands, despite staff only areas. Also people like to go to the bathroom when they're dining in. 5) Parking: you can park out back: they share space w Beefway, or park along Kingsway off hours. Chef was so communicative & generous in my order. My friend got the double burger, and we shared chili fries. Everything was top tier, even the chili fries. Just not chilli: just spiced beef crumble. But to all the fries haters who posted: you are SOOO off! These were twice fried fries (crispy outside, soft inside), plus the spicy dust is amazing! Edit: Downlow fries have better dust. Also...good sign: we came in about 10:15pm...they close midnight. They were packed with in-house diners, delivery drivers, and their own website delivery. You know a place is good when the stoner-hour is blowing up their delivery!

There were a lot of servers walking around checking on every table. They have a long list of hot specialty coffees, cold coffees, non-coffee lattes, mocktails and cocktails to choose from. We tried their blue lavender cocktail which was so pretty and their dark choco matcha latte, which came with a matcha pocky stick. Their brunch items are solid. My friend had the smoked salmon benny, which was huge. I had the avocado holic and the scrambled eggs were so fluffy. I liked the avocado on top, but once I ate that, the rest of the sandwich was kind of plain so I asked for more mayo. We finished with an injeolmi croffle. The portion was big but the taste was just ok, I've had better croffles.
