Agree with most other reviews of this place. I lo Ive and work in the neighborhood and 9 times out of 10 it is closed. With some BS sign about illness or "be back at 11:45am". They supposedly open at 10:30 and that is never the case. And now you have to take a break at exactly lunch hour every single day in the middle of Amazon world? Come on! Clearly the owners don't want to run an actual business anymore. (Probably why their #1 store closed permanently in the financial district) So may other local businesses and poke places around for me to no longer even attempt to go to this one. Always a disappointment. Get it together Poke Alice! read more

Poke Alice 2 - Big shocker!! - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Walked in for a quick lunch, no one here besides who was obviously the owner on a personal call, took him a while before deciding to help me out. Nitpicked every portion size and did not respond to small talk or humor. Generic thank you and wandered off before the credit card even went through. There was plenty of food there, but all of the above makes for poor optics and a lackluster customer experience. Food was just ok, I'd steer toward Poke and Sushi Burrito on the second floor of Westlake before bothering to Poke Alice again. read more

It's hard to rate Poké for tastes. They are usually fresh and mildly seasoned, mimicking Sashimi with sides. This one was good, not extraordinary, in this category. For that, it should be 3-starred. I liked their ordering system: 5-step with instructions right above the choice items. That's good interfaces: multiple hints and feedbacks to make decisions easier and process smoother. They probably could increase portion sizes, just a bit. read more

Poke Alice 2 - Regular box - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is a great poke place to grab n go. Although they tend to get long lines during lunch time, the employees are fast and can always get the line moving. There's not a lot of dining space in the restaurant and the few tables they do have are in a very small place with lots of people moving to get their food. They always give you your food in a plastic container so it is convenient to take out if you decide to eat elsewhere. I really enjoy their sauce. They will ask you for your fish choices and the spice level of the sauce and mix it before adding it to your poke bowl. If you don't like your fish marinated though, you should know that the restaurant doesn't have an option for no sauce. You get your choice of rice/salad, choose your fish, sauce spice level, and the toppings. They also have additional sauces, of which my favorite is the cilantro aioli. It's a typical poke experience with typical poke toppings. I would say the thing that is different about this specific poke place is their sauces read more

I came by here for lunch since it's somewhat close to work. The place is definitely geared toward quick lunches as it's pretty small and had limited seatings. I got the salmon lover which came with rice, seaweed, onion, salmon, spicy mayo, salad, mango, crab salad, and cucumber. Everything tasted fresh, but for some reason, they didn't work very well together. I felt like I was eating components of a poke bowl rather than a poke bowl. The rice was a little dry, and the entire bowl was pretty bland despite the sauce on there. The only thing that actually had flavor was the ginger, mango and seaweed salad. The portion was pretty good though for the price you pay. The service was standard. Overall, a decent poke place but nothing special. Like other reviews have mention, there is another poke place nearby that is better. read more

Poke Alice 2 - Salmon lover - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A-OK is where I landed here. The Pros: It's fresh. All the ingredients tasted great and were super fresh. The tuna had a nice flavor. It's quick. Most poke places are though... The Cons: The size. As others have mentioned, they don't give you a whole lot. I'd looked past this because I don't tend to eat a lot in one sitting, but I finished my meal, no problem. Would have liked more for the price. The overall flavor. Not working. I know they have their weird sign about sauce, but this I've gotta say was the blandest poke I've ever had. It was mostly flavorless. The rice wasn't seasoned, and the box they serve it in makes it impossible to mix well. Also, the spicy salmon tasted waaay too much like sesame. Go easier on the sesame sauce, guys! I asked for medium spicy and couldn't really taste it. Glad I branched out a bit, but I don't think I'll be back. FOB wins my poke bucks. read more

Poke Alice 2 - Small with tuna and spicy salmon - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Decently priced for the amount of food. The fish is normally fresh. I've eaten here over 20 times in the last 2 years and have only had 1 terrible experience. I like that I have the option to order via Ritual to skip the line if I'm in a rush. The stamp card is a plus as you get one free small after buying 10 poke bowls. The location is not very obvious. You'd only notice it if you're walking or if you are intentionally looking for it. The size of the location is small but it does have plenty of seating that goes into the lobby. The wait time is normally not too long even during the lunch rush but it does get more popular during summer times. read more

I was so excited to see a new poke place pop up nearer my workplace since FOB Poke Bar is a bit far to trek to during lunch time. Although the price is right with Poke Alice, I find the food sub par to FOB. Poke Alice has less selection for the carbs, garnishes and toppings. I ordered a small poke with yellowtail and spicy tuna and got a mix of white rice and greens for my carbs. The fish tasted fresh but the scoops seem to be smaller (or maybe they just didn't pack as much into the scoop). The white rice was very tough and not sticky which made eating it a chore. The poke is served in a rectangular plastic container which makes it harder to mix together when you are eating it, so the flavor ends up less balanced. On the plus side, I did appreciate that they had black truffle oil that can be added onto your poke and they also have a loyalty card to earn a free poke. Unless Poke Alice improves their food quality, I would actually walk the extra 10 minutes to get better poke at FOB. read more

Poke Alice 2 - Small poke with yellowtail and spicy tuna - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

A bit disappointed. We ordered 2 poke on the ritual app due to the promotion. The seafood was not fresh. In fact the octopus was kinda smelly. I asked for non spicy crab salad, but we got spicy instead. Which was ok, but the crab salad had very strange taste. It was kind of bitter for some reason. On the other hand, there was a lot of sauce on our salad which made it too salty. Sadly, we couldn't finished the poke in the end. Felt kind of sick half way through. read more

Poke Alice 2 - Poke - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Agree with a lot of the other Yelpers in saying that the portion size is incredibly small for a $14 Poke Bowl. I think the flavors are actually quite good and there are some interesting (but not many) topping choices and the fish freshness is dependent on the day. The atmosphere is less than desirable, but works well togo overall. If the portions were bigger, I'd definitely say that would deserve a solid four stars. read more

Tiny portions, rude staff. They literally put half a scoop instead of a scoop. DO NOT GO TO THIS LOCATION. The original poke Alice has much more generous portions. When i complained about the portion size, the tall guy with glasses literally gave me 1 extra cube of tuna! To make matters worse, i asked for mild sauce and the same guy put the chili sauce in my poke! A staff member was passed out in customer seating area after what it seemed from drinking beer for lunch. What a joke! read more

Poke Alice 2 - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

They stopped their customer loyalty stamp cards :( This used to be my go to place because it was convenient and I could earn a free poke bowl occasionally. I now eat lunch elsewhere when in the area as there are a lot of other choices around. Since I'm not working towards rolling a stamp card, there are choices aplenty! read more

The food here is very fresh with huge portions! I loved it very much~ Staff was also very nice and friendly so I will definitely go back. read more

The food is great. Better than FOB poke. Why the 2 stars you ask? No matter how good the food is or how great the service is, if I spend my time going to this place and consistently find out that "workers are sick" or for some BS reason the store is closed it ruins my whole viewpoint if this place. I rarely go here now just because of the high probability of it being closed for some BS reason. I doubt your workers are "sick" that often every single week. And if they are, hire some more workers. A business should not be randomly closed this often. read more

Poke Alice 2 is a block or so from my office, and is decent enough if you don't want to spend the extra 5-10mins walking over to FOB Poke and standing in their insane line. This place is pretty hidden in an office building, and they're generally pretty speedy. Their poke is fresh, but they really lack in portion size and variety. The scoops they use for protein are teeny tiny. Like, you may literally get 4-5 cubes of fish in each scoop, which is pretty sad. For the same price, you can get a much larger bowl at FOB. The other weird thing about this place is that they require you to have their house sauce. I mean, it would be weird to not get sauce, but the fact that they refuse to serve you without it is an odd business practice, right? For the speed and convenience, they're great, but if you're looking for more variety at a cheaper price point, this probably isn't for you. Pro tip: get their punch card for a free small bowl of your choice. read more

Avoid this place. Way better poke spots in Seattle. Go to bell town even delivery at other spots is worth it. Portions are way TOO small. 2 scoops are the same as a half scoop at other places. STINGY STINGY. read more

The poke here is quite decent, however the portions are way too small to justify the cost. The scoop size for fish is definitely a lot smaller than other poke places I've been to. FOB poke is just a couple of blocks away which offers much better choices and quantity of poke at a much cheaper price. Unless Poke Alice 2 offers something radically different, I would stick to FOB poke. read more

Typical of many poke places, with basic options. Quality and amount of food was fine, but I do not understand their sauce policy. Light sauce/sauce on the side is NOT an option. Read the sides and don't waste your breath asking. I don't understand why a place that lets you customize EVERYTHING else won't give you this option. I don't really care for the sauce, it's on the sweet side. Hoping they change their policy and maybe give a few other sauce options. read more

Niiiiice! Sweet team behind this counter that serves fully customizable bowls of poke goodness. I don't think I have ever seen such a variety of options anywhere. In short: * choose the size - small, medium or large - 2 to 4 scoops of protein * choose from a variety of 10 or so proteins: tuna, yellow tail, salmon, octopus, mushrooms, tofu, spicy ground tuna or salmon... * rice, lettuce/kale or 50/50 mix * light, medium or heavy sauce, spicy or not, plus extra sauce variety like aioli * a great selection of mix-ins: seaweed salad, cucumber, masago, furikake, avocado, sesame seeds, crab salad, mango, crispy onion etc etc The only thing they do not offer is poke without sauce - signs abound to warn you (not sure who may want it that way anyway?) The place is brand new and I think is a great addition to the Amazon's campus which I find lacking tasty options or some variety. Because it's new, the line is not yet out of the door. A small poke bowl will cost you $9.90, again seems very reasonable considering other places around. All in all a great lunch spot if poke is your thing! read more

I work nearby and eat here mainly for convenience and it's rarely crowded. I find that the freshness of the fish to be inconsistent. Sometimes (like today) it's really good. Other times, I'm not sure how fresh it is. Also, I feel the portions are a bit stingy. read more

Poke Alice 2 is a staple of my lunch routine. The ingredients are fresh and they offer gluten free sauce which is huge. If you are ordering lunch, two scoops should be plenty. My favorites are the Tuna and Octopus. As I called out, this is a good spot for lunch if you are on the go. It can get pretty busy but don't let the line intimidate you - these guys and girls are professionals read more

Poke Alice 2 - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Unreliable. Closed most of the days so if you're relying on them for lunch you'll be disappointed

I was in the area for an appointment and stopped by for a quick lunch. While the food was fine,I would not go out of my way to come back. The dish tasted okay, but the portion was incredibly small for $14. It was more like a side dish than an entire meal. I got the 3 protein option and the amount of fish was laughable. The spring mix had some brown/soft pieces in it and didn't seem too fresh. They make a big deal out of the fact that you have to get sauce because that is how poke is supposed to be made, but I found my dish too soggy and greasy. I wish they would go easier on the sauce. read more

Convenient since it's right across from work. I like that Spicy Tuna and Spicy Salmon are already options instead of choosing your own protein and sauce - I'm from Hawaii and find true DIY poke places to be sub-par in flavors ALWAYS because the fish doesn't marinate in the sauce. Beyond the protein, you can customize the sides and toppings which is nice. Portions are pretty good, but I'm left hungry with salad since it's the same volume as rice, so it won't fill you up as much. The fish isn't the freshest - I've been here twice and it's been consistently "fishy" (the funky fishy taste). Tip: order from Ritual app and pick up in 3-5 min. Sometimes, there's deals on the app! read more

I don't know what it is about this location, but the two times I've been here, the fish has been so slimy. I love the OG Poke Alice down by the water, but this location has yet to impress me. The staff are all friendly tho, and there is a bit more space indoors since there is a lobby area outside the shop. It's still not huge tho and be prepared to wait a bit near the lunch rush! read more

Came here pretty frequently. Love me some poke and it was conveniently located. The medium is great bang for your buck and you pick and choose what you want like with any other poke place I've been to. I have noticed that the service can be a bit inconsistent at this place though. I get that it gets busy and they're just working to move the line along but sometimes I feel like the service can be a bit on the colder side. In the end I'm all about the food though but felt it might be worth noting. Hope work conditions are alright. Apart from fob poke bar this is my next go-to. read more

The poke was decent, but I don't think I'll be able to eat here again. I have IBS, which means I need to avoid garlic and onions. When I asked the owner whether there were any sauces without garlic, he shook his head. "Okay," I said, turning to the serviceperson, "just skip the sauce." The owner said, "you can't skip the sauce. That's ok this time, but I f it doesn't have sauce, it's not real poke, and we can't serve you." Alright... I turned back to the server, and he put sesame oil, then some brown sauce (probably the poke sauce) on my poke anyway. Didn't even ask me, he asked the owner instead. Guess the customer isn't always right here. read more

I honestly can't relate to all the bad reviews about them giving out small portions. I've gotten their pokes several times already and each time the portions were big. The food here is also very fresh and the staff is very nice as well! I definitely will keep going back for their pokes and recommend this place! read more

Great food but hard to know when they are open. Don't ask for no spicy sauce cause I didn't get any lol. Get something!

Excellent poke, multiple protien options and kale/greens for those avoiding carbs. A stones throw from the Westin, I may be eating the majority of my meals here while in Seattle! read more

Poke Alice 2 - $12 poke is amazing for the price--and healthy. - Poke Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This place is good and convenient to go to if you work in Belltown/Downtown. They are also on Ritual so it makes it easy to order at work and go pick it up. The build-your-own poke is great because you can choose what you want in your bowl and fish that you want. The portion is a little small compared to other places so that is the main downside of this place. There is not a lot of seating area inside the restaurant so you have to sit outside or at the work building next door. read more

Luckily there is a sign on the corner or I wouldn't know this place even existed - even then it is a bit hidden away from foot traffic. It is an excellent value build your own poke bowl style place, I got the salmon + tuna over mixed greens with the spiciest sauce which was actually spicy though likely less so if you have it with rice. Everything is fresh, the place is new and clean and no lines yet. This was a very reasonable cost for the portion size and a quick way to get your raw seafood craving satisfied. Definitely plan to return here as it is an all around great addition to the neighborhood lunch places. read more

This is right next to work, and i've been about 6 times in the last month. That tells you that i'm a fan. I do wish they can cut the BS about requiring you to put sauce and all that crap. Keep up the fresh fish quality, the varied sides, maybe add on a couple of more side options. read more

The poke bowl here is okay. I think.... I write this in an unsure manner because I've only been able to get food from them once. I've tried a total of three times to go here, and twice they were closed before their published hours of operation (8PM). Once I arrived at 730PM - fine this is 30 minutes prior to closing so I guess one could argue that they were just closing earlier? Another time I arrived at 650PM and they were already closed. I poked my head in to ask the worker and he confirmed that they were closing because it "wasn't busy". The owner or manager then quickly came out and offered to make me food after appearing highly disappointed. While the effort was commendable, the overall experience was frustrating and embarrassing. I could not have possibly demanded he re-open at that point just to make me a bowl so I told him not to worry about it. They need to either: update their closing hours or stop closing early. Not sure how to make plans to ever get poke in this area with unreliable publicly posted business hours.... read more

Lunchtime poké for the win at this Denny Triangle location of Poke Alice! The team here really knows how to be efficient and keep them very long line moving. From a value standpoint, I find that I'd rather order the large and save half for lunch the next day, in order to maximize my fish choices and also try to be a little bit more cost-effective. I usually go with half kale and half brown rice, but they have a lot of base options. The small gives you just two scoops of fish so I usually go for the medium or large so I can have more variety. I really like the spicy crab instead of the regular crab, but if you're not a huge fan of space I might skip it or go light on the spicy sauce in addition to the spicy crab. Extra props to this place because of their amazing topping choices usually it's hard for me to not go overboard but I really like the options of fresh mango, cilantro, and seaweed salad. Don't forget to get your loyalty stamp card if you frequent this place a lot and come before noon or after 1:30 to avoid the lines read more

I had aloha crunch bowl on Tuesday afternoon and immediately afterwards I began having allergic reactions. Fingers were swollen, red, painful and itchy. Being a regular customer at this place, I was surprised and thought it would go away quickly. I was wrong --- it got worse the second day! Itchy painful red bumps began showing at my calves on top of what happened to my hands. The lower part of my calves got swollen too. Here is a pic my friend took for me. I truly wonder what was in that crunch bowl I had. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night, and they we're not busy at all. I didn't look at the menu very carefully, but it looks like they focus more on build your own bowl. I ordered the large tuna bowl. The large comes with three scoops of fish. I had also requested for half spring mix half brown rice. The person prepping the bowl was very stingey with the portion size. In comparison with the other poke places around town, this place gives you much less food, and none of the toppings looked very fresh. Would not recommend. read more

I can't believe this place got 4 stars! I've been here 3 times and won't go back. FOB Poke is a few blocks away, cheaper, taste better, and has more options! Poke Alice Is overpriced and requires you to add sauce which is fine. I get it, BUT if you want a gluten-free sauce, they'll charge you an extra $.60! WTF!? So you REQUIRE that I get a sauce and if I NEED a gluten-free sauce, I have to pay more?!?! And to charge $2.50 for a spam musubi that's 2/3 the size it should be?! That's ridiculous! You should be ashamed. The thing that upset me the most is that their sauce required sign claims that Poke must come with sauce, it's a traditional preparation. That's such bull! Nothing about this poke bowl resembles traditional poke except raw fish and seaweed and it's not even the right kind of seaweed. This is as Hawaiian as Olive Garden is Italian. If you want a great poke bowl, go to FOB Poke. read more

Came here to pick up my lunch via MealPal. I was given a container from a counter top where bunch of containers were sitting. I get it, it's probably efficient to make lunch bowls in batches. But then they were sitting on a counter top with no refrigeration! When I asked when it was made, I was told - oh recently! But there is no time stamp on when a bowl was made. Mine was smelling fine though, so I took it since it was prepaid and it would be too much hassle to cancel my reservation. But would not order again knowing that my lunch was sitting for I don't know how long on that counter top with no refrigeration or any signs of how recent it was made. Also portion wise it's tiny! I literally had 3 pieces of salmon and 2 prawns cut in halves. read more
