This Joy Pokè is located in a small shopping center that's near the bottom of a downward slope. Just to give you a little description about the parking lot, but in hindsight it was easy to find. Twice, I've been here. Once to try it out, the second time to remember if I ate here before or not lol. Here's a bit about this Joy Pokè location. The place is small, but clean for the most part. You start by selecting from the menu board up above. Pick the size bowl you'd like; Small, medium, large. Plus a base; White or brown rice, salad, or half-n-half. Then select the little sides like crabmeat and avocado or seaweed salad (there's more options). Third, you pick the type of fish you want for your protein. More veggie extras, add sauces like ponzu or shoyu or spicy chili. Then you complete it with toppings of your choice as well; Corn, roasted garlic, onion, furikake, etc. My bowl was prepared by the same guy as the first time, who's probably the manager or owner. Who seemed polite, but didn't say much to help with the selections. No big deal regarding services. I ordered a Large Bowl for $19.99 and added a $3 tip. The container felt a bit heavy, but it also felt like a medium bowl for the price. It was that, two large scoops of rice, but you felt a bit shafted with the amount of poke given to compensate for the amount of rice. Suggestion: Add all the extras and toppings I guess. The taste was decent, but wasn't enough to make me wanna come back any time soon. It's worth a try if you haven't been here. read more

Food was good but very small portions for the price. The owner served me and he was cordial at best. No smiling or acting like he appreciated my business. Don't think I will be back. read more

This place has delicious food and great service! This Poke and sauces are so amazing and the restaurant is a nice place to eat.

Working in Portland for 2 weeks, I have been wanting poke but haven't seen any worthy ones. But caught this one and I worked 5 mins away so I decided to go. It was definitely worth it. A clean little spot. They really loaded it up especially with the seaweed salad ( and it tasted delish and flavorful). I also got two spam masubi (already pre-made in a heat oven) I was a little skeptical of it. But they turned out to actually be really good, plenty of sauce to keep it from drying and a great amount. The lady who prepped my bowl was nice and professional. read more

i'm giving this place 3 stars because it did the job in keeping me full but there were a lot of cons that made me less than satisfied with my bowl. What I did like was the options, from the raw fish to the toppings and the sauces. What I was displeased with was the size the salmon was cut into (way too thick to the point it made me feel a little sick after a while), to the missing sauces! I asked for a total of 3 sauces and I only noticed the spicy mayo on it. It was extremely dry. Also, the way the cucumbers and onions were cut were entirely too big! Poke spots normally have them shaved or bite size, but not here. I don't think I will be back but maybe my experience was one off. read more

I loved my poke bowl here :) The fish tasted super fresh, and for the amount you get the price isn't bad at all.

Great place for a quick healthy lunch! I actually don't eat raw fish, so why go to a poke place? They have a tofu option and unlimited toppings. I got the small and my husband got the medium. Mine was so filling I took a to-go box. Very fresh and it was so nice that they offer free miso soup and hot tea! Friendly staff that explain the process of ordering and you can tell they keep up on cleaning, it was spotless in there. read more

I'm a fan! Clean and fresh made-to-order poke bowls. Their fish quality is great. Many toppings, sauces, and add-on options. Also, prices are better than most places. The place itself is also very clean. Plenty of seats. A great quick lunch spot. read more

Joy Poke - Small Poke Bowl - Poke Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Joy Poke has become a go-to spot for my family. The quality is consistently good, service is quick, and price is competitive with other Poke restaurants. This is a healthy meal option that tends to please everyone. As a rule of thumb: if you enjoy sushi, you will enjoy poke. read more

Awesome choices, magnificent flavors and always very fresh. Nice and friendly staff that get it done fast so we have never had to wait! I like the combo brown rice and salad with combo fish spicy and regular. Like to drag it through the garden with everything they offer and get the hoisin sauce and spicy too, so good. read more

I had high hopes based on the previous reviews but was a bit let down. First, the food was not bad. I'm a Hawaii girl, so maybe I'm a bit picky, but there was decent flavor. It just had a little too much of an old fishy tasty, but the sauces helped. I liked it overall, but if you're charging me $15 for a small bowl of previously frozen fish, it better be good! Additionally, I'm not sure if that man working was having an off day, but he did not smile once. You'd expect a welcoming environment but he looked like he wanted to get his service done and move on with the day. I don't like that. Maybe I'd come back if I'm in the area and seriously craving some poke, but I doubt that'll happen. read more

Great food for a hot day! Instead of pre-set bowl combos, there is a 6 Step menu full of choices. If you're indecisive, this could be a nightmare. I got a medium (3 scoops of protein) on mixed salad. If you only get rice, the take-out box is smaller. You can also do half and half. I got 3 scoops salmon, which came in large cubes and was fresh. You can choose a different protein for each scoop if you want to. There are a lot of mix-in and topping options, which is nice for customization. I got seaweed salad and crab for Sides, but next time I will get edamame instead of crab. It is a great healthy meal without sacrificing taste. It was quite filling but I managed to finish it. :) read more

Joy Poke - Medium with 3 scoops salmon - Poke Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Definitely prefer the Beaverton location; they chop up the food more. The tuna and salmon were in giant slices it was pretty gross to chew up! They charge for the miso soup which is weird because the other location doesn't and it's 6mins away. They don't have any booths only wooden stools and it's freezing cold inside. They don't have the complimentary hot tea or the water jug like the other location does. read more

Joy Poke hits the spot when I'm craving a poke bowl and I'm glad to have this restaurant in this neighborhood. They have a pretty good selection of protein, sauces and toppings, which makes it possible to customize your bowl to your liking. It's nice that their menu on the wall lays it out very clearly on how to order your bowl. So if you've never eaten here before or don't know how to order a poke bowl, no worries! Most of the time their fish is cut pretty well, but sometimes there are "stringy" pieces that are hard to chew. Regardless, this is one of the better poke options on the West side! read more

Saw this place open up a couple months ago but simply didn't have time to stop and check it out during the busy holidays, I and the family love our Poke and couldn't wait to check it out as it is close and convenient at the corner of Cornell and Saltzmann. Can't beat the location should be a hit! Learned it was the same chain as the one downtown, how is it? Not as good as the one downtown but a solid poke experience! Came in on a Saturday at prime lunch time 12:30 and were the only customer, hmm was it good? Will it stay in business ? Is the fish fresh? Surprised how empty the place is, not a good sign! Forgot how slow the process could be with so many choices, god help the line of you got a lot of indecisive people in front of you, I only had the wife, LOL Got a medium half and half, so cute the staff was so carefully setting the portions, funny how carefully he was, almost thought he was on camera, but surprise I didn't seem the ever watching cameras, hmm. How was the meal? Fish was fresh!!!! How was the selection of toppings, plenty to scratch every combo you'd want. How was the value, pretty good for fresh poke and all the toppings! Hope the place gets some business and stays open! I'll be back much better than five guys but will Chipotle's new healthy get me back is the question to be answered another day ;-) read more

Finally! A good poke place in the Beaverton area! There is an ample selection of protein, toppings, sauce and sides. For a small bowl, you can choose 2 protein choices and I usually opt for double salmon. The dried garlic and onions are cherry on tops; they added to the bowl in a refreshing way and enriched the flavor of the fish. Staffs are knowledgeable of the options presented and are highly efficient. I recommend adding more sauce in the future, especially for larger bowls! Will come back again :) read more

Joy Poke - Small Poke Bowl - Poke Near Me - Portland, Oregon

I put in a pickup order here, but I'm a regular at their other location, which I love. Here, the poke was decent, but I paid extra for mango and there was no mango in the bowl. The other location also offers complimentary miso soup with a poke bowl - that's either not a thing at this location, or it was never offered. I won't be coming to this location again since I've had only positive experiences with the other one. read more

uhh no, the attitude for what? i didn't feel welcome or get a welcome in, honestly was going to walk out mid order but i was hungry & in a rush. read more

Let's see - I went at about 5:30pm tonight and it was dead. There is a nice large parking lot with plenty of spaces (this is in a strip mall). I was greeted as soon as I walked in. I purchased the medium sized bowl with two scoops of spicy tuna, 1 part regular tuna, onions, cucumber, green onions, avocado(extra charge) seaweed, all on a bed of mixed greens, topped with roasted garlic, and spicy & eel sauce. It was perfecto! I ate every bite, everything was so fresh. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Very good and fresh and the people who with there are always courteous. It's a little pricey for lunch so I only go once a month but it's a great treat! read more

It's nice not having to go downtown for some poke. The flavor wasn't screaming good, but maybe I chose the wrong dressings. Staff was nice, quiet, and not very talkative. They could've probably explained the sauces/dressings or provided some recommendations because I'm sure there will be customers that will choose 2 delicious sauces but mixed together would be garbage. I've been to too many poke places growing up in Seattle and visiting Hawaii, so those are my benchmark. I thought the sides should be unlimited but only limited to two. Portion was still a good size. Interior was clean and hip. There was no wait; I arrived around 7:30pm on a weekday and it was pretty much empty. Tip 1 - Bring your own scissors or ask them to cut the salad pieces smaller. The salad base was a bit hard to eat without getting messy. Also, ask for extra dressing for a salad base. Tip 2 - Don't forget to ask for your free miso soup. read more

Joy Poke - Medium size w/ 3 fishes (top), small size w/ 2 fishes (bottom), and free miso soups - Poke Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The food is alright. They have increased their prices and the quality doesn't justify it. The guy who takes orders and makes the bowls is also unfriendly. He puts so little of the toppings. Wouldn't come back to this location. read more

Clean. This is one of the main reasons for this four star review. I know maybe this is not a priority for most people out there, but there is something about a place that sells raw items where an extra touch of cleanliness to me is extremely important. Now, for the food. Nothing was extremely phenomenal about this, except that it was much more reasonably priced than most other Poke places I have been to in Oregon. Typically, a bowl this size (which is "small" at this restaurant) would be prices about $2 more than what it is here ~$10. This is nice also considering the fact that they do let you get all the toppings and sides for no extra price (unless you choose to pay extra to get extra). Then they tack on that free miso soup for extra measure so that was a nice little touch. As for efficiency, from the pictures it is pretty to easy to tell that no one was there besides us, so it was very quick. One lady commandeered the Poke bar and the cash register and we got our food very quick. The fish here also seemed decently fresh. I got the salmon and spicy tuna (the "small" comes with two scoops, so I got one of each). The salmon was fatty, and could have been cut into smaller chunks for my personal preference. The spicy tuna was mashed up and seasoned, and had a decently good flavor. I got the regular Yuzu sauce, and I would also recommend adding on the Creamy Sesame Dressing for some added flavor. For $10 I was pretty pleased, and a heads up for people who don't like to bus their own dishes, you'll have to do that here! read more

I hardly ever leave reviews- but the man serving me today was so nice I had to comment! He was so kind and just a good dude!! Highlight of my day, wish I knew his name. Got my poké to-go, i got the tuna and it was delicious read more

Ordered delivery. Fish tastes old. Rice is hard. Not even sure you can call this sea weed salad mixed into this poke bowl. All and all things gross and I feel like I'll probably end up sick if I eat it. Uber eats won't make it right but figured I'd warn others read more

Due to COVID19, I decided to order on Yelp. Their page shows 2 options, delivery or takeout. I chose delivery and customized my medium poke bowl and drink. Once I finished adding everything to my cart, added payment option, it wouldn't let me check out (kept saying error). I thought there was a glitch so I changed my option to takeout to test my theory, which worked, but that's not what I wanted. I thought I could simply call in and cancel/edit my order, but nobody would pick up the phone. So I gave in and drove out to pick it up. I wouldn't have even ordered in the first place if they didn't catfish me with a delivery option Imagine if u made a mistake in ur order. They already charged u but u can't change/cancel ur order at all! There's no communication with the store owner so I wouldn't recommend using their delivery service. Additionally I was craving raw fish but this was the most expensive poke I've ever ordered! $17.49 total with $2 avocado. The presentation is nice but it's mostly salad. There was very few cubes of fish even though I chose raw salmon to be my protein twice. So overall its a standard price if ur looking for a filling meal, but not worth it if ur craving a real poke bowl with raw fish. read more

My wife and daughter love this place so I took my wife there after going to the gym. Very fresh tuna and salmon, generous portions, lots of proteins, sides, mix ins and toppings. Since a large comes with 4 proteins, it's perfect to share and only 2 bucks more than a medium! read more

I am new to this place and the waiter is emotionless and not helpful. He was focusing on online order, making me wait without any word. He made me feel dumb. Do not enjoy the experience at all. read more

Great portions for the pricing and the staff is so friendly, offered a complementary miso with my order.

Pre COVID it was my go to for lunch where I can sip miso, eat pole, and people watch. I really like that the spicy tuna is spicy. It makes me sweat. It might be a little too spicy for some people but not worry, they have regular raw tuna as well. COVID, food still tastes great. I do miss the free miso soup but that's only offered for on site or it's an extra charge. I come here for the pole though so I'm okay with our without miso soup. The take out experience was smooth. I have no complaints read more

Back again!!! So good! Thought about this food all week! I am so excited to drive two hours to the doctors when I get to have a delicious healthy lunch!!! Just try it!!! So good! read more

Joy Poke - Small poké bowl - Poke Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Love joy poke , Salmon and Tuna are very fresh as so the rest of the all ingredients, sauce have great flavor,delicious!

I usually rate poke places based on portion sizes and variety because it's pretty hard to mess up the actual taste. Considering it's poke, this place's prices are quite reasonable and if you really wanted a bang for your buck you could split a large with someone. Much better value than Sea Sweets poke. I got a small with salad and 2 scoops of salmon with cucumber, masago, and the wasabi yuzu sauce. Left feeling sad I was done eating which is always a good sign. Haven't tried the other sauces but I will definitely be back to do so as it's only a 7 min drive from my house! read more

I love this place! Great toppings, lots of different sauces, fresh fish, and super friendly staff!

This place is a hidden little gem. The ingredients are all super fresh, authentic, and most importantly, delicious! They have tons of toppings and sauces to chose from and you can mix and match as you please. It is very filling, but leaves you feeling a healthy kind of full after you eat! If you are craving a poke bowl, this is a must-try! read more

I come here frequently never had issues until last week- where the fish didn't taste right. Went in today and it was the first time I didn't see the owner but first time seeing an employee. Explained my situation and Jackie was super friendly and helpful.
