    Teriyaki chicken bowl
    Victoria B.

    I love going to the movies, but sometimes you need something more substantial than popcorn when hunger hits. Since the beginning of the pandemic, many restaurants have restricted their hours, offerings or closed altogether. Hello Poke was open, so I popped in for a bite. The teriyaki chicken bowl was quick, delicious and filling; it arrived in plenty of time for me to make my show. I'll need to visit again soon to try some of the poke bowls.

    My husband I are were up in Augusta a few months ago and we wanted something on the healthier side on our first night. Yelp led us to Hello Poke Bowl (HPB) which was not too far from where we were staying. Having lived in Hawaii for a few years, I've had my fair share of poke (pronounced po-kay, rhymes with café) of all different types. Even local grocery stores make several batches of different flavors with high quality fish or seafood, made daily. The locals would not allow it any other way! As the love of poke catches on outside of the island, I love that the poke is being shared but with any new concept, let's just say, it gets interpreted differently. At HPB, I would describe this as a deconstructed sushi roll in a bowl. Having said, I think it's a solid place to get some fresh ingredients in a bowl, and fully customizable at that! - Service - The lady who helped us was really personable, sweet and made sure everything was to our liking. When you enter, the staff will build your bowl as you go down the service counter. You will start with rice (sushi rice, brown, white), veggies, proteins and then end with sauces. - Eats - All their ingredients are measured, but the bowls themselves are quite large and once the bowl has been assembled, the bowl is quite heavy! I got the Amazing Bowl and added Tobiko and Crispy Onions, with spicy aioli on the side. The ingredients in the Amazing Bowl has tuna, salmon, shrimp (cooked, kind of like thawed cooked shrimp, decent size, not tiny), seaweed salad, cucumbers (deseeded, I appreciated this especially when they are the regular cucumbers with big seeds), edamame, jalapeños, onions, spicy aioli. The fish was cut a nice size (poke in Hawaii, pieces are cut quite large, almost like an ice cube, but HPB's size was pretty close). Spicy Aioli is basically mayo with spicy sauce. I'm glad I got it on the side so I could mix it gradually as I ate my bowl. - Tips - If you're not a big eater and you have a buddy to eat with, share one! That's what buddies are for! My husband and I could have probably shared one bowl and maybe gotten an app and we would have had more than enough. Neither of us finished our bowls and we were stuffed. I was kind of sad I had nowhere to store the leftovers or else it would have made a second meal! They also offer a military discount which is never expected, but always appreciated! - COVID Observations - At the front, there is some counter space with stools and they've X-ed out every two stools to enforce social distancing. There are a few tables as well. Overall, a great place to get a deconstructed sushi bowl! Generous portions for the price and service was great! Stay safe, Friends!

    The Amazing poke bowl
    Capricia T.

    The craving for poke hit me like a ton of bricks. Convinced my coworkers, and introduced them to the world of poke. Having lived in Southern California, I actually miss the flavors and foods that I was introduced to while living there. Having said all that, Hello Poke hit the spot and left me with not a single complaint. Maybe a teeny teeny one that I'll get to later. My bowl - I had The Amazing - was so full and fresh. "I" forgot to ask for the jalapeños to be removed, so I promptly removed them before eating. It was too late, where the jalapeños sat WAS HOT. (I'm not a spicy girly). Anyway the bowl was fantastic. Everything was fresh. A good selection of toppings to add. They didn't have furikake, but they did have seaweed salad and that made me happy. I had taro boba. Really good and the boba pearls were a good consistency. Came in a cute, reusable cup. Only complaint has nothing to do with the food. And since I've reached the end of my review, I thinking more "observation" than "complaint." The seating was so small. Either two people can sit at a table or (my coworkers & I) sat at the counters. One set faces a wall, the other looks out the window (that was decent), and the stools are small. There! That's it! My only not complaint. I will definitely be visiting here more frequently.

    I've tried poke at other places, but it's just not the same as Hello Poke! The ingredients taste fresh and they give you large portions for what you pay...which is actually cheaper than most places that give you waaayyy less food. You can pick your own rice, veggies, meat, and toppings. I usually get the Amazing bowl that comes with my faves all in 1 - sushi rice, tuna, salmon, shrimp, seaweed salad, jalapeños, edamame, and onions with tempura crunch on top. It's so light and refreshing every time. Definitely no complaints from me at all! Owners are so nice too, always trying new things to see what works for their menu in addition to poke. This place is definitely a sushi lovers dream! Must try if you haven't yet!!

    Always love coming here! Always speedy yet friendly service! My friend and I got build your own bowls and all the ingredients looked very fresh even for the time we visited which was great! We spent $15 for our bowls with two proteins which I thought was a great deal. Can't wait to get poke again!

    A cute place for some fantastic poke! I gave their teriyaki chicken a try and they did not disappoint! My hubby loves their seafood bowls. Hasn't had a bad thing to say yet. I like the layout but it is very small. I have yet to go during busy times so I've been lucky with that but I can imagine it's not fun. The staff was friendly when I went. There are a couple of tables to sit if you wanted to stay and eat. There's not much of an ambiance but that's okay. It's more of a make your food and leave type place. Come give this place a try!

    Lunch today at one of my favorite spots in Augusta! I had the Volcano and added squid salad with tempura crunch. It was delicious and as always fresh. This place has a great atmosphere inside seating and located in a nice area. As always customer service was awesome!

    Made my own veggie creation.
    Melencia J.

    I had been craving a rice bowl for days and I finally broke down and tried Hello Poke. I chose the make your own bowl option. I started with sushi rice and soy rice vinegar. Then added almost all the veggies (edamame, carrots, sweet onion, cucumber, jalapeno), then added ginger. Man.. so many sauces to choose from. I asked the bowl artist to put her favorites on. She did the soy, spicy aioli, and sriracha. Added some crushed cashews and sesame seeds on top and went to eating. So good! While I was savoring every bite of crunchy jalapeno, rice, and veggies several people/regulars came in. The employee knew their orders by heart! Now that's some attentive customer service! I will definitely add Hello Poke to my quick food rotation. Especially to the dinner and a movie night.

    Visited Hawaiian Style BBQ under the new ownership, and even though a few items I had enjoyed in…read morethe past were no longer available, it didn't take away from the overall experience at all. The food still felt authentic and full of true Hawaiian flavor. Coming from a family with roots in the Big Island and Maui, I can appreciate when a place captures that genuine island-style taste and atmosphere. One thing that really stood out was how they start you off with fresh in-house made pork rinds, similar to how Mexican restaurants serve chips and salsa when you sit down. It was a unique and welcoming touch. We ordered the spicy poke, Spam musubis, and a mixed BBQ plate with two scoops of mac salad. Everything was flavorful, fresh, and satisfying. The mac salad especially had that classic island-style taste that's hard to find done right. The staff was friendly, the decor looked great, and the restaurant had a warm, inviting feel. Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for authentic Hawaiian comfort food.

It had that perfect char on the outside while staying incredibly flavorful and moist inside. Definitely the star of the meal. The chicken was just as impressive. Well-seasoned. Perfectly cooked. Every bite was tender with a hint of sweetness and that signature Hawaiian-style barbecue flavor that keeps you coming back for more. Don't overlook the rice. Soft. Moist. Buttery. It soaked up every bit of flavor from the meats and tied the whole plate together. Simple, but done exactly right. The restaurant was busy, which speaks to how popular it is. The staff looked a little overwhelmed during the rush, and you could tell an extra set of hands would've helped. Even so, everyone remained friendly, worked hard, and never let the quality of the food slip. If you're willing to be a little patient during peak hours, you'll be rewarded with a meal that's absolutely worth the wait. It's giving... the kitchen clocked in while the dining room was playing catch-up.

    Rae's was recommended to us by a long time Augusta resident. I'm glad we went to try it out, but…read moredoubtful we'd go back. We loved the divey, local vibe. Fun, comfortable environment. Server was lovely and everything arrived in a very reasonable amount of time. Food was a 3. No more. The shrimp and grits were really a big miss. I read where it said casserole and I was fully expecting a new (for me) twist on shrimp and grits - but it was not good. Dry baked grits with maybe three shrimp total and a few tiny piece of crab. No sauce, no cheese on top - nothing. Was very very odd indeed - more like cornbread or spoon bread with zero flavor. My husband ordered a steak and it was good, so there was some redemption there. I will say, one major restaurant pet peeve for me is when the first thing you smell when you open the door is air freshener. The bathrooms are right by the door and they have a fake cherry air freshener smell pumping out from them. So that's what you get hit with when you walk in. I don't know the solution to this type of layout, but strong air freshener isn't it.

Second Course: Grilled Scallops and Mango salad paired with a Jungle Bird - The drink arrived first and it was a delicious concoction made with Meyers Rum and pineapple.
