    Excellent packaging. Nothing Soggy.
    MeikaiLani K.

    2nd time around.....and I'm hooked. Quality ingredients. Normally purchased through UberEats.

    It's the POKE with everything..

    I always order from here and it's great ..the staff is very friendly and always take pride into creating the best experience of poke to me.. ..

    This place had been my go-to poke spot but I recently had a bad experience. With this place being in a ghost kitchen, you can only order online. I placed my order here as usual and got a notification that they will let me know when it's ready. Since it's poke I assumed it will ready fast so I showed up early and waited in my car. I waited in my car for almost half an hour and still received no notification. So I went inside and asked the guy to check on my order and apparently it has been ready. I was furious because my lunch time was wasted waiting for nothing and my poke probably sat on the shelf in room temperature for who knows how long. Probably will be my last time ordering from here, I'd rather go elsewhere where they prepare your poke bowl in front of you.

    No complaints, other than I felt a little hungry after they gave me a little too much rice/not enough fish. I ordered pick up and realized I was here one morning figuring out if there is breakfast to be had but the outside doesn't look like a restaurant. It looks a little sketchy at night but the people working there are nice. In any rate, I ordered from here to try out a new poke place and got a delicious meal. It was weird to see the fish separated from the rice but frankly, I prefer that than to have the sauce be on the side and I forget to put the sauce on the bowl like some other places with to go poke. I couldn't even order on the computer they had so I went here to order and waited 15 mins in my car, then got out to pick up my food from a locker number. Now I look forward to try what I assume is their ramen restaurant, Giraffe Ramen.

    Ordered thru the app and it was ready in 10 mins. I love how it is so simple and fresh. It's a good decent size and portions.

    Large Bowl (3 Scoops) with salmon, albacore, & tuna.

    I'm so glad I finally tried Hippo Poke. I did the large 3 scoop bowl with tuna, albacore, & salmon. I did half spring salad & half white rice. The fish was fresh & flavorful. The quality at that price was phenomenal. Highly recommend.

My husband and I came with our 4 month old baby, and our server (I think his name was Jan?) was incredibly warm and welcoming to our family. He seated us in a quieter area, which made such a difference. Even when the restaurant started getting busier, our baby stayed calm and even fell asleep peacefully. We ordered the AYCE Wagyu set and loved everything. Just a heads up, there's a 90minute time limit, so keep that in mind. Overall: great service, great vibes, and a very clean restaurant.

I opted for the Wagyu lunch menu along with a few sushi rolls. The food was good, but as a huge Korean BBQ fan, I'd say the BBQ itself was just average. For the price, I probably would've rather spent the money on the all-you-can-eat option at one of my favorite spots. It just didn't quite satisfy that Korean BBQ craving. The sushi, on the other hand, was the standout. The rolls were fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. I'd definitely order those again. I also came during happy hour and was a little surprised they don't offer a happy hour menu, that would've been a nice touch. The restaurant itself is clean, modern, and has a great date-night vibe. The service was another highlight. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. Overall, I'd come back for the sushi, but probably skip the BBQ next time.

Did anyone come over to acknowledge it? Nope. We just sat there watching the host staff do absolutely nothing with urgency. But okay, we were starving, so we stayed. We ordered big -- like, embarrassingly big, probably 80% of the menu plus sake -- because we wanted to give this place a real shot. And look, some of it was actually great. But some of it was not edible. Not "not my taste," not edible. So we sent those dishes back, which is a completely normal thing to do at a restaurant that charges these prices. What happened next genuinely shocked me. The chefs took it as a personal attack. Rude comments, visibly annoyed, staring us down from the kitchen for the rest of the meal. We couldn't even enjoy the good food because the whole vibe became hostile. It were so uncomfortable that we honestly just wanted to leave. $350. That's what we spent. And we left feeling like we ruined someone's night by simply expecting edible food. The disappointment isn't even about the dishes it's the attitude from the front staff all the way back to the kitchen. You can train a team. You can't teach humility, and you damn sure can't teach someone to care. Do not recommend.

While curry is their specialty they have other items such as udon, teriyaki, and donburi bowls as well as a few typical appetizers such as tempura and karaage. The restaurant is not very big but has a fair amount of tables. Its style has a mix of modern and traditional Japanese elements with lofi music playing in the background. We were given a friendly welcome upon entering and the service was great. We started with the mixed tempura which was light and crispy - a perfect starter that won't fill you up. For dinner we tried the beef curry and chicken katsu curry. Both were delicious. I had the chicken katsu. I really liked the breading as it was light and crispy - not too thick or greasy. The sauce was also rich and flavorful. I made it a combo which includes miso soup and a salad of choice. I selected the cucumber salad which was a little sweet but refreshing with the meal. I hope to try their donburi next.

I called it in on a lazy Tuesday after hiking. Food didn't take that long but I like that there was a wait because I know it'll be freshly made. When I walked into the restaurant to pick up my order, inside was cozy and I noticed that it was pretty busy for a late Tuesday lunch. A really nice young woman who rang me up and handed me my bag of goods. When I got home, I was pleased to see that they had separated the Katsu from the curry sauce, so my meat didn't end up being soggy. Their curry sauce is different from most curry houses. There are some herbs in it that I can't put my finger on, but I love it because it's not like any of the others. Chicken was juicy and rice was fluffy. I also like their kizami ginger which had a nice solid crunch. Even though it took me a while to pick up my food, it was still nice and warm when I sat down to eat it. Very happy with the presentation and the flavour. We'll try to visit and eat at the restaurant next time. Parking lot is small and can get a little crowded with all the other businesses open. But there is also street parking available. Also, because it's a Japanese restaurant, they are not open on Mondays.

The menu had such a wide variety of Japanese cuisine, from sushi, to katsu, to donburi, there's something for everyone! Loved the modern clean vibes of the interior. They start you off with complimentary miso soup, which was full and rich (a bit salty for my liking but that's just me). We also ordered a plate of nigiri as our appetizer, and the fish quality was really fresh. I ordered the chicken katsu plate for myself, and my was it delicious. I've never tasted katsu so light even though it's typically fried, and love the sauce they paired the katsu with. It was almost like a mustard? But it wasn't too overpowering or anything. We finished the night with the tempura ice cream, and let me tell you, this is a MUST. I honestly just expected them to throw some panko on top of a scoop of ice cream, but Te-Buru's take is (somehow) baking a tempura crust right onto a giant scoop of ice cream and then cutting up the scoop into wedges. The ice cream surprisingly did not melt all that quickly either, and the matcha flavor was on point. Our servers were quick to meet our requests, nothing super outstanding but made the meal pretty seamless. Prices I think were pretty standard except for their sushi. Those are bit on the steeper side, but again, their fish quality is really good. For parking, they do have a small lot, but there's also street parking and parking in the neighborhood behind the restaurant. You'd be delulu not to try Te-Buru!
