I love poke and this place is close to my office. During lunch hour 12-1 is pretty busy but the line goes pretty fast. Their service is good and I love the fact that they don't charge extra for Avocado. As far fish choices, they have all standard options but I feel the quality is 7 out of 10. The outdoor is nice you have your meal but indoor is very busy and of course smell of fish;) Overall after taste is not pleasant, I wont go back! read more

Poke Dot - Small Poke Bowl - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

This place has good poke and quick service. However, for nearly $20 a bowl (and that's just the regular size), the portions are quite small as they're skimpy with servings, especially the proteins. While I did appreciate that the ordering style was similar to Chipotle, where you order as you go down the line (vs. filling out a sheet and handing it to the staff), they did have a difficult time keeping up and ended up getting a few things mixed up in our group's order. read more

Came here for a quick bite before needing to catch a flight - it's located in the plaza adjacent to John Wayne Airport in the Paderia Bakery/Starbucks plaza. The portion sizes here are generous, and the staff were nice. They don't charge extra for extra scoops or crab meat or for avocado (!!!). But something was missing flavor-wise. I think it must be their sauces because when it came time to eat, the poke bowl tasted pretty bland even though they were generous with their sauces (I mixed two different ones too). read more

Amazing food and fast and quick service!! Wonderful place with a delicious option and spreads that can satisfy any customer.

Poke Dot - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

The crab meat was very good, also the complimentary avocado and masago is the cherry on top

There are plenty of parking spaces. They also have indoor and outdoor seating available. Ordering is similar to Chipotle, where you just go down the line and tell them what you want on your bowl. I got a large (3 scoops) of salmon. I think most of the items are free of charge except yellowtail and blue fin tuna. You can also get different sauce blends, which I tried their house blend and spicy mayo. The food itself was okay, not the best poke I had. The rice was very hard and the salmon tasted okay to me. Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - They accept Apple Pay - Plenty of parking spots read more

Poke is always a good idea. This place had many different options and the portion is pretty fat. This was a quick pace build your own poke similar concept to chipotle or your pie. I really hated how unfriendly they were and it was so off putting going for the first time with no direction or patience. So first timers be aware. Sauce needs a bit of improvement whether it be more or more flavorful. I know I could've asked for more but it being my first time I didn't know what their sauces were like. Although they fill it up (if you opt for a lot of toppings), they give you very little protein. It was not even a full scoop of salmon and then she proceeded to even scoop some out. I probably got half the portion I was supposed to. I've worked at a poke spot so I understand protein is expensive and should be a small not over filling scoop so it almost feels like robbery not getting much protein. I like the amount of options they offer but taste and service was a little disappointing. read more

BEST POKE PLACE FOR YOUR BUCK! This place is incredible not because of the portions but because of the quality! When we saw the price that a small poke is around 14$ I was sort of wondering... maybe it's just for expensive im CA? But I was wrong. The only thing I'd say is the menu steps aren't as clear as I thought step 2 would be your main course but it isn't it's just an add on. So maybe a bit more clarity on the steps. Well I decided to get the crab mixture which gosh was so so so delicious! And proceeded to add all of the other topping I wanted. We ordered 3 pokes and it was enough for my partner to just eat out of the other 3 come out with a generous meal. We noticed that the owner was in the back doing some paper work and felt very compelled to tell him that this was a great concept and food was very very delicious. He seemed very grateful and kind. The place was plenty of seating and their is a bathroom as well. The workers were very friendly and helpful! I seriously can't wait to come back and visit and maybe come here straight out of the airport which will be a drive but worth it ! Lastly to note you know it's a good place for poke when their ginger is the actually color and not pink okay that's it ! read more

See all

My favorite poke spot in OC! I always try to pick up some poke here whenever I'm in the area. Generous portions & filling!

Just okay. Every time I stop by I can't decide if it's worth it or not. It's a convenient location and they have some solid options for toppings like their kimchi, for example. The staff isn't friendly and they'll rush you even if there's no one else in line. It's located in a busy plaza so during lunchtime parking can be difficult. I really don't feel like the portion size is worth it, especially when ordering the small size. read more

This is high-quality poke and a good amount of portions too! I love the different tuna options they provided and their spice levels were solid! I appreciated that they also had a vegetarian option for my coworker who wanted to join for lunch. Portions were great, the fish was fresh, toppings were solid, and prices were similar to other poke places I've been. This is also conveniently located in a shopping center that has a lot of dessert options nearby AND is close to the work buildings, so it's a win-win. Service was great, they were attentive and helpful and our bowls were ready very quickly. The store itself had minimal seating but there was a ton of very nice outdoor seating that me and my coworkers took full advantage of. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

Awesome place! It's definitely the best of all the poke spots!! Very y clean and great portions! read more

Poke Dot - Poke bowl - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

Poke Dot has been my go to spot when I'm craving a poke bowl lately. They have a good amount of fish as well as toppings to choose from. I've recently been getting their Maui Tuna which is their marinated tuna and it's very flavorful. I've tried their salmon and shrimp before too, and they all taste fresh and not too fishy at all. I also love how they don't charge extra for avocado (which a lot of other poke places do). There's a good amount of seating both inside and outside which is a plus. Don't forget to walk over to Paderia Bakery next door for the most amazing cookies for dessert too! read more

I feel like this place has slowly gone downhill over the years. It used to be one of my go to places for poke but the quality and quantity has not held up compared to other places. Food and service is pretty much hit or miss depending on the employee and the day. If you are craving for poke I recommend checking out Uroko Cafe (open late as well) or Tiger Plate. If you guys have found any other good local spots for me to try out please let me know! I'm always on the hunt for a new place. read more

Poke Dot - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

This shop is simple, but clean! Has some spaces to sit. Utensil are free to grab by the side. Alsooo whoever is in charge of the playlist, you got good taste . Anywhoo, I got the medium size (approx $16) bowl, and let me tell you, there's only a $1-2 price difference from the small size, but the medium size is BIG. The person that scoop my bowl was also generous with their scoop! Now the real taste rating: - salmon fish was fresh, but the yellowtail that I paid extra for was not as fresh tasting. - I'm not sure which sauce cause it, but the bowl is pretty salty (I got the medium house (?), ponzu, spicy mayo, I usually get the last 2 at other places and it's not ever this salty). - they had a variety of toppings and protein that all looked pretty tasty and fresh though! Most of my toppings tasted good. read more

Poke Dot - Small Bowl 2 scoops - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

My bf and I came here for an early dinner Friday. Parking was easy and there wasn't a line and there's plenty of seating inside and out. I thought it was cool that they offered Blue Fin Tuna and Yellowtail as an option for proteins (+$1.75 per scoop) and that they don't charge extra for avocado. They do however charge $15.45 for a small bowl (two scoops) which was a stretch considering I got salmon for both scoops and it didn't taste fresh enough for me to want to order a $15 small bowl again. Service wasn't anything special. The girl making our bowls looked like she did not want to be there (didn't even look up and body language just seemed off putting) My bf and I paid $34 (before tip) for two small bowls, which is a lot pricier than other surrounding places in the area. read more

Amazing customer service fast and tasty food looked and tasted extremely fresh. Price was very solid

Terrible Old food Terrible service I wouldn't recommend even for a quick lunch it has proven to be a waste of time and money read more

It was around 3:58pm 10/25/25. Lady who helped me seemed to have wanted me out and did not follow specific instruction when making my food. Felt she didn't really have a good attitude and downsized my portion than what I normally would get for the same price. This was my regular spot for poke but after today, I'll be looking for a new poke spot. Really disappointed. read more

Poke is fresh! No extra charge on avocado. Portions on fish are generous. Overall great poke

They have great customer service and the food is really good and fresh. They have fresh boba as well. read more

Poke Dot - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

Of all the poke joints in OC, I'll tell you why Poke Dot is my go-to: HUGE portions. Even as a greedy eater, the regular size bowl with rice was enough for me to split into 2 meals Generous protein scoops. You know when they're making your bowl and some protein falls out of the "scoop" and the server doesn't go back and add a little back into your bowl and your heart sinks. That won't happen at Poke Dot. Fat scoops and then some. Avocado is FREEEEEEEEEE. They have hot cheeto dust as a topping My partner and I came in with our masks on and our server thanked us for wearing masks and gave us complimentary beverages! It was very sweet! read more

Poke Dot - Regular Bowl - Seafood Near Me - Irvine, California

Last time I went the girl was rude and refused to make eye contact. I thought maybe it was just cultural language barrier. No when her coworker friend walked in she spoke perfect English and had a better demeanor. Crap service Food tasted good though! Shame the prices and customer service is abysmal read more

I come here often after working at equinox. But won't be anymore. The portions are always different depending on who's working. When I tried to express my concern to one of their workers and he walked away from as I was talking. Mind you I was super nice and respectful. He just didn't want to hear it. Zero for customer service. read more
