Tried Kona Poke and ordered the ahi tuna shoyu bowl with a mango boba. The worker was super friendly and welcoming, which I really appreciated! Unfortunately, the ahi tuna didn't taste very fresh, which was disappointing since the fish is obviously the main part of a poke bowl. The toppings and overall bowl were okay, and the mango boba was good. I really wanted to like this place more because the service was great, but the quality of the fish was a letdown. Restaurant was nice and cozy but probably won't be going back. read more

Ran in for a quick lunch today with a make your own bowl. We shared one bowl and it was plenty for both of us. I gotta say that I LOVE this place. The staff is spot-on and ultra friendly ( especially for a moderately busy Saturday afternoon. They will Walk you through the process of bowl building and are super patient. If you haven't tried them you should really stop in! We didn't get the Dole whip this time, but I know I will be thinking ima out it until the next time we come for a slower lunch; its fabulous. One side note that I think doesn't get enough space in records is the drink choices. They have pineapple vanilla, cherry, root beer, and Pepsi if you'd rather be boring . My suggestion is to try the fruit punch or mandarin juice type drinks. Sweet, but with a spicy bowl it is the perfect pairing:) read more

What stands out was the service by two very nice young ladies. Admitted to them this was our first so looking for guidance which is exactly what they did for us. I'm the spicy one while the wife leans to milder dishes but both recommendations were spot on. Will make it a point to return when back in Sanford!! read more

Great Poke Spot I come here relatively often and have never had a bad experience. The Poke is good I always go for the Shoyu tuna and would recommend! They have a decent selection of toppings, bases and proteins. Kona poke is always clean on the inside and the kitchen looks very clean from what I can see as well. I always have great service, when I build my own bowl the people putting the bowl together are always friendly and answer questions I may have on what something is. read more

I built a bowl and there are endless options to choose! They have both raw and cooked proteins. I also appreciate the fact that they have a plant-based option for cheaper, since they aren't choosing the protein options. Everything looked fresh and tasted even fresher. There were ample sauces to choose from and even macadamia nuts for a $1 up charge, which I've never seen at a poke spot. They have fancy water to choose from spring water and Core pH + kombucha. The employees are super courteous and let my mom sample the meat without issue. I can tell the girl working likes the food a lot because she was enthusiastic about certain items like the spicy seaweed salad which I had never had before. It was delicious! They say "aloha" to each customer who comes in too! Downside: You only get 6 toppings then they charge you 50 cents for each one afterwards. The imitation crab isn't "crab salad" so it's not creamy with mixed in mayo. read more

Best poke in the area! Fresh, flavorful, great service! Employees are helpful and happy. The only place i go for poke

4 stars for a great fast poke bowl. We first visited the location in Apopka and didn't think it would be anything special. We had low expectations going in but we were craving a poke bowl so we gave it a shot. We ordered the Kona Fire, $14. It comes with Ahi tuna, avocado, crunch, spice and seasoning. You can get different bases, with sushi rice, brown rice, spinach or lettuce. You gotta get the white rice in a poke bowl. If you're not feeling any of the premade bowls, you can always create your own I love that Kona Poke gives you free samples of the dole whip. They were offering an orange pineapple swirl. It was different but I think I prefer the traditional pineapple flavor. Great spot to grab a quick poke bowl for a reasonable price. We will definitely visit again when we have a craving for poke. read more

I have been wanting to try one of these locations. I was greeted by friendly staff immediately. I like that there are a few tables inside and outside for dining. There are lots of menu options for your bowl. I chose to build my own bowl. The bowls are very generous in size. All the items are fresh. My bowl cost around $16. It was a great experience. Next time I would like to try one of their Dole whip desserts. read more

Food= OUT OF THIS WORLD Process= easy Prices= debatable What stands out the most: the staff. Super friendly, beyond helpful, and welcoming the second you walk in. Will be back for as long as they exist. Amazing Poke bowls! read more

I ate there with a friend at her request. Food is just ok but the prices are unreasonable. Haven't been back.

Excellent service. Convenient location. Good selection. one of the best Poke' bowls I've had. I highly recommend.

My husband and I stopped in yesterday for a late lunch, and we had a really good experience. We split a mini kona fire bowl, a kalua pork platter, a soda, and a dole whip. The location has GREAT decor and colors. It was also really clean and organized. The service was fast, friendly, and helpful. I added cucumbers, tomato, carrot and ponzu to the bowl and had a base of half rice and half spinach. The bowl was packed full of veggies, was fresh, and hit the spot! The pork platter was a little disappointing. They seemed to use the wrong cut of pork because it a bit dry and lacked the slight oily, juiciest of the traditional Hawaiian pork. The macaroni salad was good, but traditional potato mac salad that you get in Hawaii would have been a game changer! It was my first time trying Dole whip and it hit the spot with its light, Creamy, refreshing taste. Rating from F to A +++, we give it an A+, just because of the pork platter. We'd definitely eat here again. read more

Portions vs other poke places near by are way smaller. Quality is good, but the price vs amount of proteins and portion size is not worth it compared to other Poke places. In San Francisco I used to get 4 proteins + crab, and a bowl I could split into two meals for around $15, and this one was a much smaller bowl, with 2 proteins for $18. read more

The staff at Kona Poke are always so nice and ask about your day. The restaurant is clean and the line moves fast. I always order the Kona fire. I add mango, onion and ginger to my bowl. The ingredients are fresh and they have a variety of mix-ins. I eat here about three times a month and crave Poke often. I'm happy I work near this location and share how delicious their food is with my coworkers who also enjoy eating here. read more

My brother and I had lunch at Kona Poke in Sanford today. We decided to build our own mini poke bowls and selected salmon and yellowfin tuna with various toppings. There were many options to choose from, but we decided not to include the avocado crab eggs as they cost an extra dollar. I added a fountain drink and a miso soup to one of the mini bowls, and the total bill came out to just under $32. Even though we were responsible for bringing our food to the table and disposing of the trash, I felt awkward not leaving a tip. I ended up leaving a 10% tip. The background music playing was trendy pop, which made for a good atmosphere while we ate. read more

Great quality and quantity of food is delicious and fresh customer service was amazing!!!! Girl with the red hair was so nice and helpful!!

I tried Kona for the first time and had a make your own poke bowl today. The ingredients were so fresh and the bowl was absolutely delicious. I spent around $12 for the small bowl but it was plenty of food for being considered the smaller portion - couldn't finish it all. You can barely get a fast food meal for that price and this was so much healthier and delicious. The staff inside were super friendly and did a great job! I will definitely be back!!! read more

Decided to try this place out on a whim as we were out running errands and needed a quick place to eat. I was surprised to see inside so empty; there was only one couple there and they were eating outside. Walking in we were greeted right away and walked through what they offer. There was only one guy working there at the time and he was very helpful and patient. My fiancé and I each built our own Poké bowls and they were pretty good, but nothing out of this world. I love a good Poké bowl and I still enjoyed mine but I've had better. This brings me to my next point: the pricing. Personally, I'd say it's a bit overpriced. It felt like every little tiny thing had an extra charge to it and some just didn't make sense. I understand some items are okay to have that, but those extra charges added up quickly and all of the sudden it became the expensive lunch we were trying to avoid. Felt like I could've spent less at a nicer restaurant. Overall, food was decent but would not spent that money there again. read more

New favorite place to grab a quick bite!! My husband & I each had a "build your own" poke bowl. So many great, fresh options to choose from! Variety of protein, toppings, marinades, sauces, & don't forget the crunchies! They also have Stubborn sofa & flavored teas. And don't forget their frozen soft serve in chocolate or pineapple. SO good!! The employees were unbelievably friendly & made some awesome recommendations . The restaurant is trendy, very clean, & nice spot to eat or take-out! I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! We will for sure be back! read more

This review is an update to my original one. I ordered online through their website during the pandemic. Ordering was a breeze! I chose my pickup time and off I went to pick it up. My order was waiting for me and I could not WAIT to dig in. My last order was their regular sized poke bowl and remembered it was just too much food for me. This time I opted for their kids portion of a tuna bowl. I got the wasabi soy and eel sauce to mix in with everything. A little green onion, wasabi, ginger and tobiko eggs and my creation was complete. I was sooo satisfied and surprisingly filled after that meal. I'm looking forward to getting another bowl soon! read more

It's literally my first time I've been here! First off, I love the customer service, they make you feel very welcomed. They take their time with explaining the menu! The ingredients are fresh and they do a good job with flavoring their tuna and offering a lot of toppings! Being a sushi snob, an asian home cooked food brat; I love sticking to my authentic roots but since we are in America, not bad with flavor! Oh, and I love their variety with their soda brand! Their tea and lemonade flavors, so good also! It doesn't compare to anything but if you are a soda brand drinker, you may have an issue! My favorite soda here, Acai! I couldn't decide between the teas and lemonade because they were all good!! So today, I ordered the classic tuna bowl with the berry and mint tea. I recommend adding the onion crunchies with sesame seed along with everything else that comes with ordering the signature bowls. I also recommend adding sesame oil and the yellow hot sauce with it! My biggest recommendation is possibly offering a bigger bowl (it's a wee bit on the bitty side). I also recommend visiting on a Tuesday for a Tuna bowl! Tuna Tuesday offers a free drink with a tuna bowl! I really think it's worth taking advantage of the fountain drinks this way! Free drink + tuna bowl = $9.99 on Tuna Tuesday! Be forewarned! There is also competition in the area so watch out! What makes this place stand out is the professional customer service! Awesome customer service + great food = Loyal Customers! read more

Absolutely love Kona, the best for poke bowls. I always get the Tidal Wave with extra tuna and everyone is also so welcoming and kind. Blue is great! read more

I made a second trip to Kona Poke and my thoughts about it have changed slightly. Honestly for $15ish (bowl with combo and crab upcharge), it really doesn't seem like its worth the price. I personally think the bowls are way too small for that price point. The miso soup tasted pretty good my first trip but I was not a huge fan of it my second trip. It's still a unique place to stop by and the staff is very friendly. However be prepared for a medium portion with a higher price point. Compared to other bowl style places this is a bit more expensive than other ones I've been to that have a similar concept. read more

This place is absolutely out of this world good! So fresh, so flavorful! They definitely hook you up on the portion sizes as well. I hope that doesn't change. It's a nice breath of fresh air not getting skimmed on the serving sizes. I've been to their lake mary location and this place is just as great. Better than any other Poke places I've ever visited across the country. read more

Fresh ingredients, friendly staff and quick service. I have eaten at this location as well as the original in Lake Mary and neither location dissaponts. If you are a sushi lover like myself then Kona Poké is a no brainer. Anything you would be able to put in a roll you can put on your bowl and then some! The price of the bowls to me are more value than ordering 2 or 3 rolls at your traditional sushi restaurant. This place is not expensive if you are one who enjoys excellent quality food and freshness. read more
