    Decided to give this place a try. I'm glad I did. It started with a friendly greeting and walk through of all the options. I got the build your own bowl. What a great value! A lot of choices to decide on. It was tough but I got through it. I built a heck of a bowl! Loaded with fresh ingredients from the fish to all the toppings and sauces. The place had a cute vibe. Beach and island themed. It was clean and staff was very friendly. I will definitely be back!!

    This poke place was great. I just thought it was a little too far away from many of the places that I go. They had pre set options and they also had a choose your own option. I liked all of the options. My favorite was the spicy chicken pre set option. They also served dole ice cream. They had a refreshing pine apple flavor. I also liked the stubborn soda brand they had at the soda fountain. I think there is one other restaurant that had stubborn soda for their soda fountain. I hope they reopen somewhere else.

    I ordered the Spicy Tuna and had a beverage. This spot is very welcoming and friendly, the service was top notch. The food was good and reasonably priced, my only complaint is that the bowl did lack a little meat. The flavors were good but most of the bowl was veggies and not enough tuna. I will say the soda selection was delicious! If I'm ever in the area I'll be back to try other bowls.

    This place was just as good the second time around! This is my go to poke place now. Doesn't hurt that it has dole whip ice cream because even though my daughter doesn't like fish, I can always talk her into it for the dessert.

    Topping options

    Great service. Food is so fresh. Lots of options ever for a vegetarian which I appreciated. They have all of the good drinks that I used to drink in Hawaii so that's a big win.

    This place is awesome! If you love ahi like I do run don't walk to this place! I chose the build your own bowl with spicy tuna, rice and the OG sauce. The toppings they have to choose from are in abundance. I topped it off with Avocado cream sauce which was so yummy. I can't wait to go back and try their pineapple soft serve. The male and female employees were extremely knowledgeable of all the choices and what they were. Also, they were just genuinely nice and seemed like they enjoyed their job. Customer service was excellent!

    Great food, friendly staff and very affordable prices. A packed full bowl of goodness is only $11. You can't beat that! We stopped in on the night of 4/18/25, and I really want to complement the guy and girl working this shift. They were awesome and in such a great mood, something that seems to be far and fee between these days at many places. Thank you for the great experience guys!

    Ahi and Salmon bowls
    Andrew S.

    Aloha! In the mood for some fresh flavors and ingredients, and want to stay on the healthy side too? You can't go wrong with a poke bowl. Tasty cuts of lean fish (or chicken) on a bed of rice and veggies, topped with plenty of seafood garnishes that make you feel practically island-side. I usually go with white rice, then half ahi tuna, half spicy salmon. I prefer the OG sauce because I like some savory with my spicy. After that, I load up with pineapple mango salsa, seaweed, and pickled veggies, as well as an assortment of other crunchy and spicy toppings like sesame seeds and toasted coconut. Then, finish it off with one of the sauces. I like the Togarashi and Ono Ono. My wife is a fan of the avocado cream. Be picky and get what you like, or be adventurous and try something new. Depending on the day, you can sometimes get a premium topping for free. Up at the counter, they'll walk you through signature bowls with pre-identified ingredients or help you make your own custom creation with what you see in front of you. I appreciate that the ingredients are not only in front of you but also called out on the menu above, which helps when trying to figure out what to put in your masterpiece. The folks here have been very helpful. We met the owner at one point, who is just a real nice and genuine guy. It's nice to be able to support a local Gilbert franchise. Oh yeah, ambiance. It's always so clean and casual inside. There's open table seating and even a couch where you can lounge and watch the TV, which is often streaming surf videos. We'll definitely be back again.

    I have been wanting to come here for a while as I really like poke, but I was kind of disappointed. I liked the indoor decor and atmosphere. The girl behind the counter was really nice, and the quantity of food was very good. But the salmon and tuna was really mid. They give you a lot of rice, but it was not very good at all.

    Spicy tuna poke bowl!!!

    I just have to say consistency is key and you have that key!! Hold onto it, I love coming here and treating myself time to share with my loved ones. Thank you for continuing to rock the Poke World!

    We love getting salmon poke bowls! Though the salmon here was just okay. There are lots of toppings to choose from. They were generous with their rice portion. Located in a great area! Indoor seating available. Clean place. Service was mediocre. I felt so rushed when it was not even busy.

    Andrew L.

    Nice & new facility located in the the new The order: salmon & ahi tuna poke salad The good: The food is standard and you can customize your own bowl The bad: Most of the stuff here is pretty much your standard poke joint, so I think there not much creatively put into the restaurant.

    Steven J.

    Wow! Very nice place to get Poké. The staff was incredibly warm and fuzzy-- not to mention, very helpful and patient with my Dad who doesn't typically have Poké. The atmosphere was pretty cool too, a combination of comfy couches and dining tables. The Poké was pretty good. They really packed our bowls and I was impressed with the various sauce and topping choices. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavors complimented eachother well. They also serve "healthy" sodas (Stubborn Brand), and Dole Whip DF ice cream. I'm taking a star off because the place smelled a bit like mold, or a sewer odor. Not very appetizing.

However, my go to poke shop has closed…read moredown awhile ago but now I have discovered this spot, my poke cravings have been answered. What I love about this spot is that they give do not skimp out on portions; you will get your money's worth every visit. Heaps of fresh fish and as many toppings as you want. I believe that this is family-owned business and the staff are very kind. My order is usually this: Mixed greens and Brown Rice Salmon Albacore Tuna Eel sauce, Ponzu Wonton Crisp Crab Salad Seaweed Salad Edamame Masago Cucumbers Green Onion Ginger But I always try something different when I visit. Can't go wrong with how you customize your poke as you can always taste the quality and freshness. As for pricing, it can be a little pricey...averaging about $20 but to be fair, it is seafood...so you'd expect it to be pricey. Overall, I will continue coming to this location for poke. I'd rate this place a strong 9/10. Adam Nguyen Copyright 2026 - All Rights Reserved.

Even though they only used one scoop per fish serving, they made sure to top it off, so they don't skimp around here!

They had remembered her call and could tell her exactly what was gluten free. This is a very casual order at the counter kind of place. The dining room is simple, but that's okay because the focus is on the yummy food. They have single plates and double plates on the menu. I got a plate that had kalbi and kalua pork. It was served with white rice, macaroni salad, and kimchi. It was amazing! The pork tasted Smoky and delicious, the kalbi beef had just the right amount of sweetness to it. The macaroni salad was also perfect. I got quite a bit of food for my money. I was able to make it into two meals because there was no way I was going to finish it in one sitting. I really like Hawaiian food, and this one is so much better than some of the chain restaurants. It's slightly more in price, but it's 100% worth it. We sat and talked for a couple hours at least. While we were sitting, there was a period when every table was taken. So it does seem like quite a few people know about this place and come. I highly recommend it!

This might be the BEST Hawaiian food I have ever had. It was SO good. We both got combo plates: mine was with katsu, char siu, spicy garlic chicken, and BBQ beef; my husband got the same, except instead of katsu, he got kalbi ribs. It was fantastic! All of the meats tasted so good, the mac salad was delicious and everything has top tier quality and taste. But I think my favorite and the star of the show is the poké. We tried two different kinds: a half pound of Hawaiian style (right) and a half pound of fried crunchy garlic (left). OMG it was heavenly! Such fresh fish and amazing flavors. I absolutely LOVED them both and wanted to eat pounds of it if I could. I want to try ALL the flavors! They had about six different poké flavors and indicated that the Surprise location would have way more, roughly double that and I am so excited about that.
