    Let me start out by saying that this place is a literal diamond. Poke is one of my favorite things to eat and unfortunately there's just not a lot of places around that can serve up a good bowl. I've noticed that there's been a few more poke joints popping up in various areas (Northampton, West Hartford, etc.) Let me say this - I've been to those places but this is the spot. This is the CLEAR winner against those places. Personally, I love building my own bowl - I like to do a mix of half rice and half salad, then tuna, salmon, and some sort of spicy fish (tuna or salmon depending on my mood). Now here's where the other places go wrong - they give you a TEENY TINY portion of the star of the show. This is where Joy Bowl shines. They make the poke the clear STAR of the dish. That's what poke is all about, anyways. They also have a wonderful selection of mix-ins, including veggies and fruits! The sriracha aioli (spicy mayo) was also very good - the only thing I wished they also had would be sesame oil. We asked and they stated they only have olive oil. But oh well, I can live without it. Anywho - if you've never had a poke bowl before, think of this place as a Chipotle - you pick your base, meats, and then toppings. Then you mix everything up in a sauce and enjoy! Another great thing about this place is how well it's decorated! It's a very cute set-up and they even have a wall for polaroids of guests who have been there before.

    Build your own. Delicious

    My mom loves this place so I had to visit while in town and I could totally see why this is her choice when she's craving sushi. It's pretty much sushi in a bowl. I created my own bowl with brown rice, loads of veggies, and added avocado for a little extra price, but it was worth it. The price point is great considering the quality and amount of food you get.

    Poké with shrimp and crab. Yum!

    Excellent Poke! No issues here. Fresh, delicious and quick. We'll worth the drive for us. We left the Air show in Westfield and searched Yelp! and found this place. Friendly staff as well!

    Make your own poke with 3 proteins and a sweet red chili pepper sauce (not spicy at all)

    This cute, clean local establishment is capitalizing on the yuppie poke trend and doing a fine job of it. Friendly folks behind the counter with a plethora of fresh toppings. They offer a 10% discount to college students and military folks - both with ID proof. Seemed to be a good flow of customers grabbing takeout and a few other students opting to eat in the restaurant. I chose to make my own bowl with 3 proteins and a host of fresh toppings. If you are a sushi fan, you'll likely enjoy poke too. Give it a try!

    ordered grub hub from them the other day and was disappointed to receive a half portion of a two protein bowl. Food was good but it was disappointing since I was still hungry and I paid $15+ for half the food drowned in sauce.

    Since moving back from Hawaii, I've had yet to find anywhere in the area that serves good poke bowls since I'm very picky when it comes to poke. This has DEFINITELY become my new go-to spot! You can get 2 or 3 types of protein along with up to TEN add-ons for less than $12, plus they aren't stingy with their portion sizes! SO worth it. They also offered us free fruit on the side! My favorite is brown rice, spicy ahi & spicy salmon with seaweed salad, edamame, mango, tempura flakes, nori, masago, & unagi sauce/sweet shoyu. I ate my entire bowl before I could even take a decent picture, but I've attached the happy hour specials for those who are interested! They also have punch cards which are 'buy 9 bowls, get the 10th bowl FREE'. I'll definitely be back for my 2nd... 3rd... 9th... & 10th bowl!

I got the Cannon ball roll which had shrimp tempura, a garlic aioli, and topped with a nice chunk of beautifully seared steak. I loved that roll - super delish! For $20 it was kinda steep so it definitely helps that the roll was tasty. I also got a salmon skin roll which had crushed up salmon skin in the roll... unique as I'm used to a rolled up fried salmon skin. My fiancé got the Mt Holyoke roll and enjoyed it as well. The specialty rolls were definitely massive. My only disappointment was the duck bao, which had shredded duck in five spice. I was hoping for the more traditional peking duck style bao. My bao also had some furry bits stuck to the end, not sure if it was lint from somewhere but it looked like dog hair. It was pretty baked into there. I didn't mind too much I just ripped that piece off. Too hungry to care, but that knocked a star off the review. Would potentially try the ramen if we come back.
