    Garlic tonkatsu ramen, delish!!!
    Andrew S.

    So I'm finally done with a long day dealing with teaching, talking and students code when I see a highly rated ramen join pass by so I can't abandon them. I order the classic tonkatsu ramen and it shows up in minutes from the guy behind the counter, super polite and encouraged me to play video games too. The whole place has this, "neighborhood poke shop" vibe that I just enjoy. While I'm not a fan of onion, bamboo shoots or the veggies in my ramen they were picked out soon enough. It's flavorful and you can tell something is unique about the serving which was flavorful but not as nearly strong as I like it from Kuzikai Ramen in seattle but late night small town beggars can't be choosers. 4.5 stars out of 5 and I would buy from here again. If I find you hipsters complaining this guy doesn't have the 31 flavors of kombucha you love just go elsewhere, preferably the moon.

    Quick, fresh, affordable, and great service! No frills joint that offers sushi, poke, ramen, and curries. Very clean inside, owner was very friendly. Plan to back more!

    Poke fresh is an amazing neighborhood restaurant in Roosevelt!! I stumbled upon this place and it is a great hole in the wall spot for some quick sushi. Nearly everything on the menu is buy one get one free!! I couldn't believe it. The portions are generous and the sushi is good! The rice is a little mushy but honestly for the price, I'm not looking for much more! It is a great spot if I don't want to cook dinner and want a cheap meal. The owner is very kind as well. The poke is amazing too! They have pre marinated poke like Hawaii which is hard to come by. I will definetly be coming back to this place!

    This is a hidden gem! Don't get thrown off by the name, they have more than just Poke. The eel roll and chicken roll are both cooked. The sushi rice in the rolls has the perfect amount of softness and stickiness, the eel tasted very fresh. I ordered them with eel sauce. The fish bone soup is also very tasty, salty, but if you water it down a bit, it's perfect! This place also has ramen! The owners of the restaurant are very welcoming and attentive.

    As a college student, late nights are often a staple part of the academic experience. Given the limited selection of restaurant options after hours, Poke Fresh has stood out as a late night go-to. The value of the food here is unbeatable. Between the $8 donburi, $4 salmon collar, $10 sukiyaki and other affordable Japanese comforts, there are few other places that provide the same bang for buck; and, they absolutely do not skimp on portions for the price. It's not the best food you'll ever have, but it hits the spot every time. The atmosphere is modern yet cozy, and the employees are always kind and accommodating to match. Highly recommend this place for an affordable, reliable meal.

    Great place that stays open late! Too many Poke places seem to close earlier than other types of restaurants. Poke Fresh is open until 1:30 AM, which is awesome! My son and I went to Poke Fresh after a Yelp search and found this place to be quite good. Parking sucks but it's like that everywhere in the U District. I did however notice the Link Light Rail Roosevelt Station is just up the street so that is a great option to avoid the parking hassle. We each got the medium sized make your own bowl which comes with 2 proteins as well as a bevy of choices for other toppings, etc. I love the variety of choices and selected the Ahi and Spicy Salmon. They allow half and half of bases like several rice varieties or greens so I got half salad greens and half brown rice. The service was great with a very nice and accommodating server. Kinda weird they played Hispanic music over the speakers for the entire restaurant but maybe the employees get their choice when working. No biggie. I'll return here one day and will likely take the light rail for convenience.

    Large Poke with Salmon and all the fixings
    Amelia L.

    I come here for poke once a month or so, it is conveniently located and not in the heart of U District, which I pretty much avoid. The servers are always really friendly when I come in, they take my order promptly and aren't skimpy on the portions. The food always tastes and feels fresh. I like the options of toppings and mix-ins, as well as the sauces and fish options. You really can make it whatever you want! I always go heavy on the salmon, and theirs is pretty dang good! It's not the most attractive place to sit in to eat, it's very basic, but the people watching sitting at the windows is unbeatable.

    Good quality, fast service, open late. A little pricey but good quality and portion. Been a few more times and recommended to folks in the area. It may be hard to communicate through the glass partition so be sure to speak clearly.

    God I love this place. The owner is so nice too which makes the food taste 10 x better. I love their classic Japanese curry.

    Helene D.

    For the price they offer, the quantity and quality was worth it. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful and met my poke needs. I got the small size and it was perfect! They put so much of each ingredient you want especially the protein and I appreciated that very much. The employees there were super nice and the place was clean and welcoming.

    Wish your business would offer a cheaper price for the vegan option, as tofu is not as expensive as fresh fish. Hence, the 3 stars.

Food & drink: (3/5) I've been a loyal lover of the milk cream strawberry since my very first visit, but for some reason it just isn't as good as I remember it being. I would say it's just fine now that I've noticed that they've gotten more watered down. I do enjoy that they still use fresh fruit, but would probably only come back if I was invited by a friend. My partner still really likes his usual which is the mango pomelo sago. I think it's one of their best sellers and is a pretty safe order if you don't know what to get. We didn't get any this time, but I do like their mochi. If you've acquired the taste, the durian mochi is solid. Service: (5/5) Ordering is mostly done through the kiosk at the front but I still appreciate how fast they get things out.

I could just tell this restaurant was going to be a great experience from the moment we arrived. Friendly staff greeted us as we arrived and quickly showed us to our table. The atmosphere was warm and energetic, full of diners eating, drinking and enjoying conversation. After a quick scan of the menu, we quickly made our decision to order as many dishes as we could and share. We went for the beef tartare, Chinese scallion pancake, smoked tofu, kimchi trio, spicy rice cake, Chinese broccoli, "that" short rib steak, Kalbi burger, and the kombu cured mackerel. Everything was #brokedamout. The standouts to me were the scallion pancake, short rib, Kalbi burger and mackerel. Parking is available on the street and in private lots. We're already trying to figure out when we can get back here again before we leave. We'll certainly be back.

    I've been looking forward to trying this place for a while. It's a Korean fusion-type steakhouse,…read morewhich is pretty known for their meats - particularly their short rib. We started with the bone marrow - but this was a near-instant regret. The amount of bone marrow was so miniscule it was hardly noticeable. Despite the larger bone, the crevasse containing the marrow was so thin it was barely a light press on the surface of the bone. I could barely taste anything from how little was on there. At least it came with a couple pieces of nicely grilled and buttered toast, but this was a massive waste of 20 bucks. For our mains, we had the famous short rib steak, and the kalbi burger. The short rib steak is the most known dish from this restaurant - and it's expensive too. It comes with 6 oz of the kalbi, glazed with a sweet and savory soy-sauce based marinade. This steak was solid, but I wouldn't say it lived up to the hype. The end pieces are astoundingly good, with a fattiness that melts in your mouth completely - but the middle pieces honestly felt pretty dry. The extra cap fat on the outside made a big difference in their taste, and this wasn't available to the middle pieces, which were on the chewier side. I did still like the marinade a lot. Also, each of the middle pieces showcased thick grey bands around the outside - not an indication of great cooking either. Rather than the more famous item, what truly blew us away was the burger. This was astonishingly good - up there with one of the best burgers I've ever had. Obviously, when you put a short rib patty inside a burger, it's going to taste amazing, but this one still beat every expectation I had. The 8 oz patty is super thick and ludicrously juicy - it's practically the same thickness as both buns combined. The cook is an absolutely perfect medium rare. But what really gets me is the perfect dark black char on every single inch of the outside. It's the best crust I've ever seen on a burger. This was so much better than the short rib steak.. Adding to the contradictions - the short rib steak and bone marrow are both way overpriced for what you get, while the burger, at just $24, feels very underpriced for how massive it is. Overall, I would certainly recommend you go here, but skip the expensive items and share a burger between two people and you'll leave happy. 8.25/10

Then I had chirashi, my grandson had yellowtail fish collar ( that 4 year-old kid finished it all! ) my son-in-law had the 5 course omakase, my daughter had sashimi and my granddaughter had nigiri, roll and geoduck. We polished it all and then desserts. Service was awesome, our main server was a young lady, on point for friendliness and efficiency. All staff worked well together, clearing dishes and bringing new ones. Dinner took 2 hours and made a dent in the credit card but was well worth it. The dining room and counter were completely full, so this small restaurant is much appreciated by locals. There is a parking lot next block of the restaurant.

There was also an extensive drink menu so we got a few drinks and they were all fun and tasted great as well! The valet was great as well.
