    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.

    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.

    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.

    I visited Ono Poke on a Saturday afternoon to pick up my preorder for Butter Bandit and decided I…read moremight as well also get a bowl of poke. This was at 12:30PM and there was a long line out the door and around the corner, taking almost 30 minutes. I had previously visited on a rainy winter weekday for lunch and there wasn't a line at all. What a difference the day and weather can make! While in line we could see the chefs cutting up ahi fresh right in front. The longer line gave me time to chat with the owner as he was trimming off the skin and other bits. I learned that tuna skin is much tougher than salmon skin so can't be eaten like salmon skin chips. He also said that the trimmed parts can be taken for free if anyone wants them. Apparently they make good crab bait! Medium w/ Rice, Traditional Limu Ahi, Hamachi, Mac Salad ($21.50) - I love the Hamachi poke mix. It's fresh, tender, and buttery fish tossed in a creamy and slightly spicy sauce, filled with little briny pearls and plenty of aromatics giving a super umami bite. The Limu Ahi is very fresh as well - I mean, it's sliced right in front, and there's so much turnover of the food that's it's pretty much guaranteed fresh. The tuna is fresh and tender, but there's noticeably more sinew compared to the hamachi. The Mac Salad is also really good. It's super creamy and the macaroni isn't overcooked so it still has some bite. The rice is unfortunately the weakest item in the bowl. It's a little too dry for my tastes and is only lightly tossed with rice vinegar, giving a tangy flavor. Overall all the poke is fresh, the flavors all meld together into a delightful balanced bite, and the sauces are not overwhelming. Ono Poke definitely serves some great poke!

They share parking spots with the rest of the plaza and it's not difficult to find a spot if you're willing to walk just a few extra feet. Went for an oddly timed meal on a Saturday around 4PM and they still had all their poke options. There are about 6-8 tables in the store, but quite a few folks take their meals to go. It's definitely not the cheapest meal option, but the poke is absolutely delicious and the fish is unbelievably fresh I tried the Shoyu Salmon, Spicy Tuna, and the Hamachi; all of them were incredible. The Hamachi is only available on weekends and the fish is so fatty it almost melts in your mouth with the creamy and tangy sauce. The Shoyu Salmon is incredibly succulent and just a classic knocked out of the park with a great balance of fresh, salty, and slightly sweet. I'm normally a tuna hater, but the texture is excellent with a nice bite and great spice level.

    Georgetown has some nice hidden gems and I would consider this one of them... just good,…read moreno-nonsense Japanese rice bowls of comfort. If you're a fan of Red Bowl in Financial District, this place has a similar vibe with its approach to rice bowls. Having been here twice on different weeks, I think this will become one of my go-to places in the area when I'm craving fresh seafood on a weekend south of downtown. LOGISTICS Parking is convenient for Georgetown area, given they have a dedicated lot for customers of businesses in the area. Entering in, you order through the kiosk and if you're dining in, you can seat yourself and they'll bring the order to you. The space is small for larger groups but if you're 4 people or less, generally there are tables available on off peak hours (at least what we observed Sat/Sun). Ordering happens at the kiosk, which you can choose for takeout or to dine in. Keep in mind there are some items available for dine-in only (ex. udon or seared salmon bowls), but if you plan on doing takeout anyways you can order online or call ahead for pickup. Note - they do close at 2:30 pm but re-open at 4:30 pm. So long as you get your order in by 2:30 pm they'll still service you... which was nice since the last two times we came in around 2:00 PM. FOOD First off, they have nice nice presentation both in how the food is arranged and the bowls they use when dining in. From the ceramic/decorative bowls to the trays they use... it's the little things that add to the dining experience and make you think a business cares about its food. (Note: there was one time we had initially ordered togo but decided to eat in person; so they kept the food in plastic bowls for one of my photos.) In every bowl we had during our two visits, the rice was excellent! We've had some terrible rice at other donburi places before where it can be too overcooked or too mushy. Fortunately their seasoned rice was a good texture and tasty to eat on its own. The seafood was also excellent for the price / quality - fresh tasting with a melt-in-your mouth texture. Volcano Bowl: Spicy salmon + spicy crab salad w/ masago - despite the description it wasn't too spicy (siracha mayo) but it went really well with the rice, like a deconstructed sushi roll. I liked mixing in some wasabi to give it a stronger kick. Aburi Sake Bowl (seared salmon bowl): This is only available to order for dine-in; if you love salmon... I would recommend this one. Seared salmon is delicious seafood umami. I liked how the salmon had the right amount of fattiness too. Chirashi Bowl: If you like variety, then this is an excellent bowl to try a little bit of everything. I was amused that they also included unagi (I don't think I see that in most chirashi bowls). Even the shrimp, which is usually my least favorite part of chirashi bowls, tasted good with a slight sweetness. OVERALL Awesome place and a good location for the area given there's parking available. Price was just right for the quality (I'm amused how much cheaper good seafood is here in Seattle compared to the Bay Area) and the staff were really friendly. There are also two excellent bouldering gyms nearby (Castle Climbing Club and Momentum)... so if you're looking to recharge after a climbing session, I would highly recommend coming here!

    Might be the minority here and say it's just average. Was hungry and passing through the area and…read moresaw they had a seared salmon bowl (Aburi Sake Don). The taste was unfortunately very bland, no significant sear in the salmon, and the soy sauce didn't add anything memorable to the bowl. The Una-Gyu Don wasn't bad, but the broiled eel with sukiyaki just wasn't special enough to make you crave it again. The location has a parking lot next door at least. Internally the dining space is narrow and fills up quickly at opening times in the weekend. Order at the counter or kiosk, and they'll deliver the food to your table, which you bus yourself at the end.

There are no bells and whistles here, just excellent service, fair prices, and fantastic food. There are only a handful of tables, which is really meant for solo diners and two people at best. There is a handful of takeout patrons at any given time, but that's only because of the wait. It's far more enticing to sit in and experience the magic that exists in every bowl. Water is self-serve and thankfully presented in a filtered water tank that spits out cold, delicious water. A majority of the bowls are between $13-16 each, which in today's foodflation economy seems expected. The good news is that the portion is substantial in every bowl. My go-to is their chirashi, which is roughly $19 but features a nice array of fish cuts that include salmon, chopped fatty tuna, masago, fresh water eel, shrimp with albacore and another dose of tuna. The unagi don is their most expensive bowl at nearly $21, but the broiled unagi with the eel sauce that is dynamite. The textures, the sweetness, and the size is all on point. And due to its status as a teriyaki city, I think the chicken teri don is an excellent alternative to all the seafood. The teriyaki hits all the right flavor notes, with just enough sweetness with the tenderness of the chicken meat. Add in another $1 and it's a spicy version. I so wish there was something like this in my neck of the woods. If I lived in Seattle, this would be a weekly destination. I'm already looking forward to my next visit(s).
