Lunch entrees come with choice of soup or salad. I had the Seafood Hot and Sour soup and it was fabulous. Just the right amount of spice and tart. Spicy Tuna rolls were very good and my favorite was the Yellow Tail with jalapeño roll. Portions were big and the $13.75 price was more than reasonable. A 3 roll lunch is only $17.75 and there are many choices all under $18. Everything was so good here. I know I'll be back

Blue Mountain is a neighborhood sushi gem in the Murray Hill area. I recently ordered for pickup…read moreand tried the salmon poke bowl, which came with a side of miso soup. The soup was nothing special, so I think I'd opt for a side salad next time instead. The bowl was packed with an impressive variety of toppings, including salmon, peanuts, fried onions, avocado, oshinko, tamago, and seaweed salad, all topped with a sesame dressing. While I appreciated the generous portions and the freshness of the salmon and vegetables, the bowl felt a bit heavy overall. There was a lot going on, and I found the amount of fried onions and peanuts to be more than necessary. The sesame dressing was tasty, though there was a bit too much of it for my preference. I also noticed that the tamago and seaweed salad tasted premade and a bit sugary, which took away from the light, fresh quality I usually look for in sushi. However, I know that sweetness is fairly common for those ingredients, and I think many people would like this hearty style of poke. Since the fish itself was fresh, I would happily order from here again and will round up to 4 stars, though I'll stick to their regular rolls next time to keep things a bit lighter.

You get unlimited toppings and 2 sauces! The masago is 50 cents extra. In total it came to about $24 including the tofu pockets. I really liked the spicy mayo - it was actually spicy haha. There's a decent amount of seats, maybe like 10 in total? I'd come again!

I don't usually go for a fruit drink but this one was pretty good and not too sweet at 50% sweetness. The spam Musubi was very rice dense with a small slab of spam. That was expected as I had the same spam musubi at a different Pokeworks location. Ambiance was warm and inviting with lots of seating available for lunchtime rush.

I got 2 proteins: spicy salmon and crab meat with all the veggie/fruit toppings except kimchi over a base of salad. The staff were very patient in explaining all their different options (hot proteins and cold proteins). I love how colorful the bowl turned out to be with edamame, corn, sweet mango, onion, striped of seaweed, tomatoes and lettuce. I like how you can get a smaller portion -one protein or a large portion -3 proteins. The only downside is it can be high on sodium with the sauce. However, its extremely flavorful and I would definitely go back. Around $17.81 with tax for two proteins over salad. I believe there is a upcharge for Avocado. The best part is feeling you've eaten your veggies for the day.

Grab a paper menu and a pen and mark off what you want in your poke and hand it to the cashier to pay and order. They have a wide variety of toppings which makes your poke super customizable - sauce wise and topping wise. Note they are super generous on sauce, so if you don't want too much sauce, maybe don't get all three sauces. A great lunch takeout poke spot.
