On the surface all poke bowls may seem the same but the quantity of items you can select, the freshness of the ingredients, the price and serving size all end up being differentiating factors. This was my first time visiting Poke Bar in Chamblee. There was a lot of free parking available and the restaurant looked clean. There is an art to ordering poke bowls (unless you are a regular) but the staff was helpful and made it a breeze. You pick a base, protein, mix ins, sauce, sides and toppings. I got a medium bowl with 3 proteins - tuna, spicy tuna and more of the same (what can I say - I love tuna) on a base of rice and greens along with some edamame, cucumber, corn and sesame oil. You have options to choose from as you go through the step by step process. My bowl tasted great and all the ingredients were fresh. In my opinion that's the main thing. Yes it is a little pricey but for fresh and quality ingredients it was worth it. The serving size was plenty too, so no complaints there. At the end of the meal I was satiated but didn't feel guilty about the food I ate. Win win! Will be back soon!

Came in today, because my daughter was craving for a poke bowl. Coming in there was 2 customer that was already seated. I had to video chat my daughter, so she could see exactly what she wanted. The guy at the counter was sitting down, obviously looking at his phone. But once I approached the counter he ask what I wanted. I politely told him I was ordering for my daughter. He saw me videoing her and he gave me the menu. It's seemed as though he gotten aggravated because I was taking 2 seconds too long with the order. I guess he had to get back to whatever he was watching. But anyway! I told him my ingredients for bowl. He started rushing me to finish. My daughter is pregnant so she can't eat raw fish. I told him shrimp, octopus and albacore. Right when I finished my trans action. He threw my bowl in the bag without any utensils and then walked off to the back. I really wanted to say something ugly to him, but I chose the higher road. Because I might have to come back. Once I got to my daughter, she started to eat it. And THIS MUTHA F$%&#@ put raw tuna in the bowl. Grant it I wasn't watching him fully making the bowl. But I made sure I said those 3 ingredients. Now!!!!!!! I really want to get back in all this dang traffic and go throw this bowl at him. And it's not even good.

I've been a huge poke fan for some time now and Poke Bar is one of those spots that deliver consistent quality bowls across multiple locations I've visited. Recently stopped by with a bad poke craving. There are plastic shields hanging from the ceiling since COVID. There are signs that ask you to point to what you want since it's very difficult for both parties to hear one another across the shield. I ordered a small bowl with less rice for my base. Small bowls come with two proteins; I chose shrimp and ahi tuna. Toppings I picked included imitation crab, onion, edamame, scallions, seaweed salad, furikake and sesame seeds. Sauces used were spicy mayo and sesame oil. Service: Good, no issues here. The experience was very smooth and quick. Everyone is wearing masks and gloves. They also use disposable bowls to mix each person's poke bowl. Parking: A number of parking spots in front of the store and along the curb. There's a small parking lot further down from the restaurant to the left. Poke Bar is a solid poke spot. Wouldn't say it's the best out there but the poke quality is consistent across all the locations I've tried.

I still love this place, the customer service and the food! And, if you keep returning and sign up for their loyalty program, you can earn free food/drinks! Covid-19 requirements are in place, including facemasks wearing by employees and customers, heavy plastic sheets hanging between the tables, plastic separating the customers from the employees and the practice of social distancing. The food served is still fresh, and the employees are still friendly, attentive and efficient. What I like best about Poke Bar that sets them apart from competitors are that Poke Bar employees hand mix the poke, the sauces and the other ingredients together, spreading all of that deliciousness throughout the bowl. If you can't find parking in the small parking lot right in front of this store, there is a free public parking garage nearby. Poke Bar, continue what you're doing because you're doing a great job!

Salmon Poke Bowl
Tiff H.

I rarely get cravings for poke bowls these days but when I do, I get excited over the fresh poke at Poke Bar! My first visit to the Chamblee location was very nice. It was a quiet weeknight and there weren't many people inside. I always love salmon in my poke bowl so I made sure to order plenty of it. I like that you can customize bald greens and half rice - that way I'm not overstuffing myself with just rice but I'm also not starving afterward from only eating greens. I love the toppings they offer, as well. I have trouble differentiating poke from the various poke competitors in Atlanta. There are so many options these days and they're all similar. That being said, the Poke Bar chain was the first major poke restaurant in town so that is the characteristic I notice about Poke Bar first. That is the reason I am rating Poke Bar with a 4. Nothing special but pretty tasty all the same! Convenient location for me when going on the way to the LA Fitness in Brookhaven.

Always a solid place for a poke bowl. I've been to other locations they have and I wasn't disappointed at any of them. I think their options are the best. This is a great spot for a quick meal

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite lunch spots in the area; super fresh ingredients, high quality seafood, generous portions, and friendly servers. If you're craving sushi but want to try something a little different go for poke!

Yummy medium bowl.

Always fresh. Always good. Love the various options too. A reasonably priced tasty and healthy option for lunch or dinner. One of the few places you can purchase a healthy meal outside of a full-service restaurant. Service with a smile. Prompt and friendly.

Spicy tuna, kale noodles, seaweed, ginger and matcha milk tea
Michael B.

I'd received a text advising that I had a free drink coupon...and since I'd never tried, why not just get dinner? Compliments for making spicy tuna that is actually spicy. The kale noodles were tasty. Ginger wasn't the freshest but wasn't bad. And the boba milk tea was pretty good too. For a quick poke fix, this place did pretty well. I would give it 7 out of 10 (round up to 4 out of 5 stars). Well done!

CUSTOM POKE BOWL!! visited this place for the first time today and it was lovely. the store has some seating that is very COVID friendly with dividers between tables and the serving area. i didnt really know how it worked and learned that you can make custom poke, but premade bowls are only available if you order ahead online. i wish you could order premade ones or at least show them for some ideas and inspiration, especially if you don't know where to start. i got a small bowl which was a good amount of food. i liked how many of the toppings were already included and free. one of my favorite parts of the bowl was the sauce. i had their house sauce and the sweet chili sauce and it added so much flavor to the bowl! i also got some bubble tea - mango jasmine tea with lychee jelly. it was pretty good but nothing spectacular. overall, i thought this was a good place and liked the idea that you can totally customize your bowl. for those interested in what i got in my bowl: - Rice - Salmon - Shrimp - Corn - Green onions - House sauce and sweet chili sauce - Seaweed salad - Imitation crab - Avocado - Crispy onion - Crispy garlic - Furikake

I've been driving by this location for over 2 years now and I'm quite upset with myself that it's taken so long for me to give this spot a try. I came in on a Friday evening looking for the perfect post-workout eats. Upon walking in, there's a long bar accompanied by menu(s) that walk you through building your bowl (or smoothie). The bar is sectioned off by each step, ex: step 1 consists of picking your size and the bases (brown/white rice, salad, etc) next section contains proteins and so on and so forth. There are countless toppings/combinations so it's the perfect place to customize your order. I ordered a large bowl which consisted of 4 proteins (spicy tuna, salmon, shrimp and octopus). The salmon and spicy tuna were absolutely delicious. Really loved the variety of veggies (seaweed is my fav) AND sauces - large variety of vegan/gluten free options. I was also quite pleased with the portion, hoping this is consistent as I saw reviews saying their portions have been a bit inconsistent over time. So ashamed it's taken me so long to visit here, literally 2 minutes from my apartment! Fresh, light (but filling) and guilt-free eats :)

Hair in food
Cori L.

Ordered my meal on UberEats, it took 25 minutes for them to start making my order and when it was finally delivered, it was luke warm with a hair in my food. EDIT: the owner so kindly offered me a new bowl, I think I just got unlucky the first time. They are dedicated to their customer service!

The quality of the fish is always consistent, and the portion sizes are generous. The staff here is what really makes this place great! They are so friendly, and they recognize their frequent lunchers. As far as the interior itself, it is very spacious; it seems to follow the design of most poké bar places. Overall, I highly recommend it!

With that being said, Pokeworks has come in clutch a few times for me, so it's about time I gave them a review. Let's get into it! Location and Parking They're located in a shopping center in Sandy Springs. They have a few designated parking spots in the lot, but you can really park anywhere, there's no charge. Venue and Atmosphere The space is nice, always well lit, but also always empty. I myself have only dined in once, because I usually just takeout orders. But there is definitely seating both inside and outside should you feel inclined. Food and drinks If you haven't had poke before, think of this as a chipotle style place. You can order from one of their premade bowls/plates, or you can design your own. My go to is the yuzu salmon bowl, I get it with half regular salmon and half spicy salmon. Toppings and sauce are plentiful, which is always good. Service The servers there are always friendly and accommodating. I'm in and out within a few minutes, which is great because I don't have that much time on my lunch break anyway. Verdict Pokeworks works when you need a quick good, healthy lunch. I've been back plenty of times and I'm sure there will be plenty more times. Until next time!

What a great deal - my friends and I decided to check it out and we had a great dinner. Servers were attentive and the food came out in a timely manner. I ordered the Samurai Roll, as well as the Chicken Karaage appetizer. The chicken was sooo good - perfectly, lightly fried with sauce to dip. Tender and flavorful! The Samurai Roll was substantial and I appreciate the generosity of the roll. It was topped with salmon, and usually when rolls are topped with fish, it's usually a pretty thin slice of fish, but these slices of salmon were quite thick in my opinion. The pieces of sushi themselves are also fairly thick - it was a big bite for me to eat each piece in one. I made a reservation in advance and the staff already had my table ready even though I was a little early. The table was already dressed with menus, chopsticks, and some small plates/sauce dishes. Love it when restaurants are on top of it!

This place delivers with good sushi and sashimi!…read more We decided to check this place out this weekend based on the reviews and proximity to everyone. If you are close to Buford Hwy you should try this place. They have parking for a few cars right in front, a smallish restaurant inside with a full sushi bar. Their menu is pretty comprehensive and includes fried rice, noodles, sushi rolls, sashimi, soups etc. As we were a large group we ordered a bunch of things. Most of the entrees are served with a salad and soup making it quite the meal. We ordered the sashimi appetizer, the pork gyoza, shrimp shumai, omelette, combination fried rice, B-52 roll, sunrise roll, crunchy roll I think. Sashimi was fresh - yellowtail, tuna, salmon. The gyoza was delicious and table favorite Honestly, I even enjoyed the pork belly omelette. So flavorful... The fried rice was cooked well but was missing some seasoning/salt. Otherwise good. The rolls were great and we selected ones that had some spice. My favorite was the sunrise roll - a little crunchy inside yet with a slight kick. The staff felt a little overwhelmed with our group but they were polite and helpful. Food was prices reasonably and worth it (for the portion sizes).

There were no signs posted indicating any restrictions regarding service animals, and legitimate service animals are protected under federal law.
