The menu is expansive, but I knew that I wanted a poke bowl (versus a ramen or noodle dish). After explaining what I was looking for, and that this was my first time in this establishment, the woman behind the counter patiently guided me through my choices. I went with the Tsukiji bowl on her recommendation. It truly had a little of everything (tuna, salmon, crab salad, edamame, radish, nori, spicy mayo, and more). The ingredients were fresh and the portion was generous for the price. Will definitely be back here when I am craving something out of my normal rotation. Note: this is a cashless establishment.

It's a great option if you're trying to get a balanced meal in, with plenty of protein and veggies depending on how you build it and what sauce you choose. I also appreciated how fast everything was: no line when I went on a Saturday around lunchtime, and I got my food quickly. Highly recommend adding the fried onions. They add a really nice crunch that takes the bowl up a notch. As for the fish, the quality is decent for a poke spot. It's not mind-blowing, but definitely good enough to satisfy a craving. Overall, a convenient, healthy-ish lunch spot that I'd come back to.

Everything tastes incredibly fresh, clean, and well-seasoned -- not overly sauced, not trying too hard, just really solid poke done right. The salmon and spicy tuna were both super tender, and you can tell they don't cut corners on ingredients. I love how customizable the bowls are. So many bases, toppings, and sauces that you can go classic or build something totally different every time. The portions are generous too -- my bowl was packed and actually filling, which doesn't always happen with poke. The toppings bar is a highlight. Crunch, heat, freshness -- you can balance everything exactly how you like it. The mix of textures (crispy onions, cucumbers, creamy sauces) makes every bite different. The space is casual and easy, perfect for a quick lunch, takeout, or something lighter that still feels satisfying. Staff has always been friendly and fast, even when it's busy. If you're into fresh, flavorful food that doesn't leave you feeling heavy, Mammoth Poke absolutely delivers. Definitely a go-to poke spot.

Mammoth Poke is in my top five poke spots in the city!…read more I came across Mammoth Poke after exploring the 606 Path and wanting something healthy afterwards. Mammoth Poke is on Western Ave so it was easily to find. Plus the large green and white sign makes it hard to miss. The inside of the restaurant isn't too large, they're setup mainly for to-go orders but they do have some seating. The seating is focused more towards smaller groups which is perfect for solo dining or a party of two. During my visit they had a ton of to-go orders going out so they had ample seating available. This was a plus because I opted to dine-in during my visit. I knew I would like Mammoth Poke because they offer a variety of fresh ingredients that you mix and match. Not only does the ingredients look fresh they tasted delicious! The poke is priced for the area meaning it's a little pricey but I was able to get two meals out of my order (lunch and dinner).

In today's economy, where everyone is feeling the pinch, it feels insulting to be charged $16 for a bowl that is 90% rice. It is also fundamentally unethical to market a "poke bowl" that only contains four TINY pieces of tuna and one shrimp-- ​To make matters worse, the rice itself didn't even taste fresh. It was hard and dry and it clearly was NOT fresh I reached out to the business directly to voice these concerns, but they were completely dismissive and didnt bother to respond. It's a shame to see a business be this stingy with their portions while showing zero accountability to their customers. Save your money and go somewhere that actually respects its patrons and wont short change you with the quantity.

It was very much between lunch and dinner time, so the restaurant was completely empty inside. My friend and I perused the menu board and eventually each decided to get a regular sized build-your-own bowl. In my poke bowl, I got spicy tuna, salmon, and scallop as the proteins and purple rice as the base. I really appreciate them allowing three different protein choices, variety is great! I then got an assortment of other toppings, including my favorites, fish roe and imitation crab. Everything tasted very fresh as expected, though I think in the future I'd rather get a 2nd portion of scallop instead of spicy tuna (just a personal preference). My friend dined outside the restaurant on the sidewalk since it was a nice day, and interestingly some birds came by and basically begged for food. The price is super reasonable for the quality and portions and I'll definitely be back if I'm in the area. More likely though, I'll order delivery again from them first!

From the moment you walk in, you get a warm Hawaiian vibe even in the middle of winter. It really makes you forget how cold it is outside. The staff member who helped us was incredibly kind and patient, especially with my sister, and I love the build-your-own bowl concept where you can customize everything to your liking. FYI everything is freshly prepared in-house. I ordered a regular bowl with rice and greens, tuna, spicy tuna, and tofu, then added toppings like kimchi, corn, carrots, ginger, cucumber, onions, and a crunchy topping. They finished it with garlic aioli and another sauce, so good! The garlic aioli was a standout. My mom ordered a similar bowl with tuna, spicy tuna, and cooked shrimp. She was pleasantly surprised by the value and kept saying how much she loved the food. The portions were generous, we even had leftovers to enjoy later. We also tried the spicy miso soup for dinner, and she loved that just as much. My baby sister kept it simple with rice and spam. She said she liked it, but true to her picky nature, she took one bite and that was it. Overall, a fantastic experience with fresh ingredients, great service, and generous portions. Highly recommend! Hope you check it out.

Granted the last time I went here was in 2019 to their old location just a few blocks up on Lincoln Avenue but it seems they got a corporate makeover after shutting down during the pandemic and rebranding. Maybe they have a new owner...? It's much more spacious and brighter with Herman Miller stool seats, a pinball machine and high ceilings. But with all of these new trendy upgrades it has lost its cozy, relaxing small business neighborhood vibe the old location had IMO. They added bubble tea and Mochi donuts to their menu. They also were playing rap & trap music and I honestly thought I had walked into the wrong place when I went in. Gone are the guys busy behind the counter. You order via an ordering kiosk (they seem to be popular with places cutting down on staff) made by one person behind the counter. My order was made quickly but I'm not really sure about the kiosk ordering system since you need to input your phone number. I ordered my favorite bowl of theirs, Jimmy's Creation. The first time I tried it in 2018 it was so good I nearly skipped out of the place and wanted to eat here everyday. It's still good but the rice is much more sticky, a little too sticky for my liking since I had to break it up into chunks with my chopsticks. The sauce was a bit too sweat also. Was it always this sweat...? A minor issue though based on preference I guess. I would probably return again but probably not go out of my way and trek through a snow storm like I did once years ago.

The poke was fine. The ingredients are fresh, and since I picked what I like, of course I enjoyed it. The place feels cozy and interesting, with lots of plants inside. My only complaint is that the low white tables are very close together, so you literally can't move. They need to be spaced out a bit.

There's a large number of ingredients and sauces that don't always taste the best together. I did appreciate the menu with steps to orde. It helped my husband who doesn't get poke as often to decide. My 2 cents: a preset poke bowl menu and pictures might help the ordering go more smoothly. The Tuna and Salmon were good, the shrimp was miniscule. Sushi rice was delicious and overall it felt like a nice healthy and fresh meal. Poke is overall expensive so portions were on par with other locations. I think its the lack of marinating the protein or sauces that are lacking in flavor. There was a variety of texture but no saltiness or spiciness or umami flavoring to offset the blandness or the veggies and protein. Interestingly enough, the spam musubi was one of the best I've had in a while. I loved the egg addition to the 2 slices of spam and warm rice. I would return for several spam musubis and if I'm craving something lighter to eat.
