It was completely by happenstance that we turned into this place. Our family was doing a little Saturday night "dinner hop," and we originally planned to stop at a bibimbap spot. But as we drove by, the sign caught our eye and my husband and synched up in harmony, "Poké Bros -- Hey, we haven't been here in a really long time!" So kudos to their signage being clearly visible from Golf Rd, because as foodies... that absolutely matters. When we walked in, it was already past 7:30 PM and the restaurant was empty. And not to pat ourselves on the back, but there's something in Asian culture about having "good food juju" -- meaning if you love food and love eating, you will draw in crowds after you walk in. My husband and I are both born under the Pig sign (take that however you want ), and I swear that within 10 minutes of us ordering, three different groups walked in and the place filled up to about 70% capacity. This is not the first time this has happened to us over the years, so yes... we're a little proud. Our kids are foodies too, so if you ever see our family in your restaurant, likely more foot traffic is coming your way. So the ambiance here is fun and casual, with a Hawaiian surfer vibe that totally fits the fresh fish concept. It also makes me miss Hawaii! Now onto the food. We really like Poké Bros because it feels healthy and fresh -- quality fish, vegetables, flavorful rice -- basically deconstructed sushi in a bowl. You also get good value for what you're paying. Most bowls start around $13 (there has been a slight price increase of a couple dollars since our last visit years ago, which is expected). For an average person, one of these bowls which is usually packed with ingredients to the rim will totally fill you up. We ordered The Duke ($14.50) which comes with tuna, salmon, and shrimp. Because we were dining with kids, we left out the jalapeños and swapped the gochujang sauce for the sriracha aioli, which isn't spicy at all and is kid-friendly. We had sushi rice which was well flavored with vinegar (if you don't like that, ask for white rice) and also added extra imitation crab for $1.25. At the end, you can customize with additional toppings -- we added seaweed nori, wonton crisps, and rice flakes for extra crunch. Everything came out to be about $18 for a bowl so you can get feel for cost. Service was quick since bowls are made immediately, and we didn't have to wait at all. The staff were friendly, and nothing felt off or uncomfortable. It's also nice that they'll give you a lid with your bowl so if you don't finish, you can easily take it home. Once we sat down, the kids went wild -- and they even ate some edamame, which I count as a win. Everything was delicious and while the toppings were cool, the sushi rice was warm and it was a great combination. Since this was our second stop of the night (yes, dinner hopping with kids is a thing in our house), we didn't order more, but we'll definitely be back. Years ago, my husband and I used to come here for date nights when our kids were too young for fresh sushi. Now they love it, and it's nice to be able to enjoy this together as a family. We actually use this place as a bit of a "pregame" before going to rotary sushi spots -- our kids can absolutely eat us broke (not exaggerating), and this helps take the edge off their appetite. I know that's probably a unique situation, but if you're going with kids who devour sushi like water, this is a great option. For most families, this would easily be the main meal. For us, it's a sushi-deconstructed bowl of happiness before the final round. Tip: Ask for a punch card. Every bowl earns a punch, and after 10 punches you qualify for a VIP card that gives you a forever 10% discount on every order. We're definitely holding onto ours. Not sure why it took us so long to come back, but now that Poké Bros is back on our radar, we'll be returning for sure. read more

Poke Bros is one of my favorite spots. The ingredients always taste high quality and super fresh. My go-to is the Duke, and I swap the gochujang for sriracha aioli for a creamy kick. It's the perfect balance of fresh and flavorful every time. Highly recommend! read more

Usually poke bros skimp on the protein, but not this one! The lady gave me a nice, hefty serving of salmon and FILLED the bowl with no empty spaces! And she was incredibly nice! This is the best poke bros I've found in the suburbs. read more

Poke Bros - Johnny Utah - Poke Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

The restaurant is a quick place to eat. The process of ordering and getting the food was quick. The staff was friendly and helpful in answering questions. The place was clean overall with nice decor (blue theme). The Duke ($14): the bowl was flavorful and included a good amount of ingredients which complemented the bowl well. read more

Poke Bros is hands down the BEST poke we have ever found! All of their ingredients are sliced fresh, and they have the best variety of options and sauces (from tofu, tuna and chicken to pineapple, mango, jalapeños, avocado, ginger and lots more!)! We moved to San Diego and have been trying to find a poke place as good as Poke Bros for 4 years, but this Chicagoland poke chain has all our West Coast poke options beat!! Still can't believe it -- please open some stores in San Diego eventually!! This location is also the best with the A-team customer service wise. And everything is clearly labeled gluten free! read more

This was the BEST poke bowl I have ever had. I ordered make your own bowl with white rice, edamame, cucumber, seaweed salad, green onion, crab stick, marinated tuna (omg yum), ginger, OG sauce, spicy mayo, and sweet soy, sesame seeds, and wonton chips. It was so fresh and so delicious. I will be back! read more

Okay, Poke Bros is SOOOO yummy! This was my first time ever trying it, and it did not disappoint. I believe this is one of their newer locations, and it's located perfectly across from Woodfield Mall with convenient parking right next to it. The space itself was medium sized and super cute & clean! The employee working was beyond kind, cheerful, and eager to help. She explained their signature bowls and how it works. The staff was great here in general! I built my own bowl and I loved the choices they had. My only complaint of this whole experience is that it's definitely pricey - to add a few of the ingredients, it's $1 for the a super small scoop. For masago, avocado, seaweed salad, and a few other things it's $1 more. But it's okay - the absolutely delicious and fresh poke bowl was soooo worth it! My bowl total was $16 and it was more food than it looked like. I got: sushi rice as my base, edamame, carrots, ginger, masago ($1), avocado (1$), jalapeños, cucumbers, half spicy salmon half spicy tuna for my protein, then topped it off with sesame seeds, wonton chips, sriracha aioli, and ponzu sauce. It SMACKED. I will 100% be coming back here again. Sadly there aren't many poke places by me, so I'm so happy Poke Bros opened so close to me! 10/10 will be coming back. read more

This is my favorite "poke place"! Although I usually go to Niles location, I have to admit that Schaumburg location is way better compared to them! Service: Never experienced service like that! Top notch! The girl who works there is sooo pleasant and friendly! Since there was nobody, she even came to play with my baby for few minutes (because baby liked her). Ambience: The place is super clean. Everything is nicely decorated and organized. Food: Already mentioned this is my favorite poke place. I like spicy, so - the Duke with sriracha and all possible spicy spices is my choice. Definitely will go back. Not once, millions times! read more

FYI - they close BEFORE their posted closing time . Rushed here after work and drove 30 mins just for them to have the doors locked before 8:50 pm . read more

This is another very nice Poke bowl spot in the Schaumburg area. It is located on the north side of Golf Rd.. between Kuma's Corner and California Pizza Kitchen. Today for lunch, I ordered "the Duke" (forgot pictures - sorry) and added avocado. The ordering system is flawless and all the ingredients looked and tasted wonderfully fresh. I will return for more. read more

Good location, they aren't stingy with the protein as some other locations seem to be. The staff is always very friendly and welcoming, and it's a quiet peaceful place to go for lunch. I like to have Poke a couple times a week for lunch if I can, and this is my go-to place. Everything is always fresh and tasty, and the service is always quick. read more

I have been coming to this location after I fell in love with the one on Barrington Rd. I order a Kani Salad even this week I wanted a second one. (Third time here this month after craving it). Add Avacado! which im willing to pay the extra and have paid the extra. They refused, said i never ordered that here and refused to serve me unless i ordered a entire bowl. ... what was frustrating is i have ordered exactly the same thing two other times at this location this month and previously and they told me that WOULD never happen here. I hope to go home and find my old receipts. From THIS location but I will not be back here! read more

Man, this place is LEGIT! Food was as fresh as it comes. Great to eat food that makes you feel energized and not sluggish.

It was ok. They scrimp a bit with the salmon. They admitted it was about 2 days old. They let me look at it before I ordered. It seemed decent so I went for it. It didn't have a smell, so good on them for that. But when they made the bowl they put so little. For the price I paid (nearly $20) I expected a bit more. A couple of things were out of stock that should have been included in the bowl -- I can't remember what. But they were major ingredients. They also had no lid for the bowl. read more

ive been ordering here for nearly 3 years now, the food is amazing and my go to is the spicy chicken for the protein. i also recommend the sriracha aioli. they will make your food quickly and will give a large portion. cashiers are very nice. ambiance is a bit odd, but its not necessarily bad its just plain. food quality makes up for that though. 10/10 read more

Ambiance is great for a fast food place. Outdoor seating is a real plus. The service is quick and cheerful, nice people honestly! The food is good! I always order the same thing (no 2) and add edamame (no extra charge by the way) and it makes a satisfying quick lunch. The marinated tuna is tasty and fresh. If you like poke or never tried it before, you cannot go wrong here. read more

Extremely well run Eatery, greeted very warmly by amazing employee! Quickly explained options. I got the marinated Tuna w/several wonderfully fresh ingredients. Cooler drink choices or just free water nearby. Very CLEAN and bright aqua-blue decor theme. The bowls actually are much more amount of food than they appear at first. Significant amount of tuna. I highly recommend - the woman running this biz, made ALL the difference...thank you, we'll be back! I highly recommend :) read more

One of the best places for a quick, fresh, healthy & filling lunch in Schaumburg! They have a solid selection of toppings to make it fun to customize your own bowls. Service is always quick and friendly. read more

Great service and delicious poke :) I got the salmon and it tasted very fresh. Definitely will be back!

This is a go-to place for my son! He loves all of the different types! Everything is good if you like poke bowls! Service is great too!

Food and service was awesome. I have been to a few poke restaurants before and have always been disappointed by the portion sizes. This place had great quality and portions. Will be back soon! read more

Since it is Lent and we're out of time to look for a different place to eat, we decided to try this Poke Bros just in front of Nordstrom Rack. It's awesome!!! The freshest tuna and salmon comparable to premium sushi place we have been to. The staff was nice, the place was clean and most of all, the food was the best sushi in a bowl. Thank you. read more

Friendly staff, food is always very good. Restaurant is clean and easy parking. Prefer this location to the Niles one which is closer to me. read more

Super good food and service, the woman that helped me was very sweet and helpful and happy to explain everything since it was my first time getting poke lol appreciate her read more

I am here like 3-4 times a week. It's fast moving lines too no matter how busy they are. The food here is amazing. I'm here so much the lady has my custom order memorized. I love her she's the sweetest! read more

This Poke Bros location is the BEST! I've been to other local locations that don't compare to the friendly service and top quality food of this one. Tell them that you love one of the ingredients and they give you extra in the bowl. This location is also extra clean and super friendly! I'd drive farther to go here! Give them a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

Excellent food- so many choices and food is so fresh and delicious. Great alternative to sushi. Love this place!!

Very friendly! Excellent customer service. Ambience was great. Clean. The food was EXCELLENT. Saving this place to my list of favorites!

Sooooo good! We ordered this after a long day for my nieces birthday celebration. Wanted fresh and filling food and this place was perfect. The build your own bowl was easy to use and everything came out right. All of the ingredients were very fresh and the bowl was tasty. They also had a promotion for free miso soup for orders over $20 which was a nice little surprise at pick up. The soup was hot and good overall though I think I prefer my miso w a little more salt. Overall GREAT buy and definitely worth it. read more

The poke bowls were amazing. The service was awesome, super nice people. Couldn't say enough good things about Poke Bros. Highly recommend.

I enjoyed the ramen and the sushi. James is nice and the service is good. We'll surely return with my family.
