First time Poke eater review! Im here visiting from the DC area and was 3.5 miles into a walk when I spotted this gem! Ive never had poke because im super skeptical of raw fish but this was AMAZING, I can't imagine having a better experience elsewhere. I was walked through the whole process so kindly and with patience (I'm super indecisive), which I really appreciate. The place is kept clean and the fish was fresh. Totally recommend supporting this amazing family owned business! read more

I tried this Poke place cause I was in the area and all I can say is 5 STARS all around! I got Salmon , Shrimp and Spicy Tuna and it was all super fresh! I got a large bowl and barely finished it. Portions are generous. Service was quick and easy. The guy at the front was super welcoming and nice, offered any questions if I had some. read more

Not sure if it's the same owner or new one, but the quality is still the same for me. I've been on a poke bowl kick lately along with some masubi, it just hits the spot every time! I get overwhelmed choosing in the store, so I'll create my order online ahead of time and just read it off to them when I get there. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food. I feel like they are generous and it always tastes fresh and delicious. Staff are always nice. Tip-- have sauce on the side vs mixing everything together! I also always have them toss the greens with sesame oil too! read more

My go to spot in town for a nice little poke bowl. They are always super friendly too!

This place may have decent poke, but their service sucks. They don't trust people enough to put out any condiments, like soy sauce, or even napkins. In fact, an employee has to physically unlock the bathroom door for you. Any restaurant that's treats customers like children, aren't going to get my business. read more

I came here after a day at the beach and spotted this place while waiting in the In-N-Out drive-thru for my lil' dude, which made me quite happy. Tiffany served me, and her service was excellent. I was her first official face-to-face customer. Lol I was a bit disappointed that they didn't have masago, but that's ok. As for the wasabi it was not spicy at all. I'm surprised since it was my first time encountering non-spicy wasabi. Nonetheless! the ahi tuna and salmon were just perrrrfect and fresh. Chunks in every bite. I made mine a half-and-half brown rice salad bowl with all the veggies toppings, and the sauces--Dynamite and Oahu--were *muah* chefs kiss. Overall, it was good shtuff brodduh & sista, get some! read more

You can never go wrong by choosing salmon. The salmon was cut into large, generously sized pieces and so fresh. That's the only type of protein I added because I'm a huge salmon lover but you can choose to go crazy with the other options. Even if you're not a huge poké lover, they have Hawaiian classics like spam musubi and California rolls. We ordered the tuna roll but they were out of tuna so they subbed it for salmon which I was happy about. They have a lot of deals for small bites depending on the day of the week so I'd take advantage of that depending on when you visit. Poke Island is such a cute, small mom-and-pop shop tucked in a busy plaza that's worth supporting. read more

Best place ever!!! 10/10 service and yummy food. So much food too I'm way too full!!!

We walked in while they were closed, not knowing. But they welcomed us in with open arms. The food is fresh, and really tasty. Their spam musubi was definitely the STAR of the show for me. I will definitely be coming back next beach trip!! read more

The service immediately 5/5 stars. We walked in as they were closing tonight and went to walk out as we realized and they told us to still come in! The portions for the food are so perfect! They are so sweet. I love the vibe in here. So welcoming. Such a wonderful vibe! The coffee is truly the most delicious coffee I've ever had. The ladies here are so kind. I highly recommend coming here. read more

I've been having poke here for years. Today I brought mine home and I must say the albacore was at least very old and smelled horrible. I ate a piece and threw the rest out. I am a person who picks favorites and if I have a bad experience, I go elsewhere. So the search begins. read more

I popped in on a Sunday night, and it wasn't very busy. Actually as I'm writing this review I just realized I walked in right as the business was going to close. Nick was kind enough to let me think they weren't closing yet, and was super patient while I ordered. He gave me recommendations, and was kind enough to help me organize my order a specific way. The prices are extremely reasonable! I didn't want a lot of food so I ordered a snacker bowl. When I decided I wanted Poke I assumed I was gonna spend about $18 for the bowl. Instead I got a bowl that was under 10 bucks, and I got a BOGO happy hour deal on a Peach and a Brown Sugar drink. So before tipping I spent about 18 bucks for two boba drinks, and the perfect poke bowl portion. Obviously everything was super good! Can't wait to come back! read more

Came here for lunch on a weekday. Service is fast and the line wasn't as long compared to other poke places in the area. What I liked about the menu is that there are lots of sides, sauces, and fresh made to order musubi options. I ordered a regular bowl with three proteins, salmon, spicy tuna, and shrimp with half and half rice and spring mix. I loved that they offer sesame oil for your spring mix, so the salad isn't dry with some flavor. I also ordered the house musubi which was so delicious, I would come back just for that as a snack. read more

They need to improve their Uber Eats. They didn't put multiple things that I ordered in the bowl I got. I'm sick and can't leave the house I haven't eaten all day and I rarely order Uber Eats and the one time I did for the past like 2 months they messed up my order. read more

Poké (POH-kay) is a seasoned raw fish salad that has been served in Hawaii for centuries. This takeout joint offers the freshest fish. I got half rice and half salads with mixed seafood! Try it with the Ohana house sauce.

Got their house spam musubi and it was yummy! However, I wish their spam had a better sear and bigger. I could eat it in 2 bites. It could use more sauce too. The poke bowl was good! I got the signature bowl with every type of fish. The fish was fresh and the bowl was good overall! The tea was refreshing. It was like jelly juice. I would come back to try their crab chips. read more

Delicious! Fresh Salmon! The poke bowl was delicious. The house sauce is very good. The portion size is good. The Thai tea was delicious and the mango green tea was very good. I will be back for more. If you like custom poke and boba / tea I recommend it. read more

Still not any better than 2016. Possibly worse. I'm not a fan of these poke joints that are almost on every corner these days, but I'll probably never visit this one again. The quality of tuna was previously frozen. You can tell by the color. I bought my husband a FIVE SCOOP to try to get enough fish and he's not a really big eater anymore, but wants mostly fish in his poke bowl, like they have in Hawaii.... So after paying premium price here, still not impressed. EVEN LESS IMPRESSED when they give you like 5-6 tiny pieces PER SCOOP and if they fill the scoop too much to their liking, they knock off the extra. I was there at 6:30 p.m. on a weeknight and the only one in the place. Good luck to you Poke Island, but .... this is it for me. read more

Whenever I run errands near this area, I always make sure to stop by for a quick lunch. It's one of the few places I would go to for poke. Whenever I go to other poke places closer to me, I would still crave this place. The taste is always consistent to me and I appreciate that. I usually get a regular half and half base like spring mix and rice and with spicy tuna, tuna, and albacore and choose whatever toppings I want. I like mixing different sauces and it always comes out good. The only thing that is different is sometimes it comes out spicier depending on what sauces I choose. The sauces here are more unique than other places I have tried. You can also get some premium toppings like avocado, mango, or boiled egg for an additional charge. I also love that they have boba here and their boba is actually decent! My go to always is the almond milk tea. They have free boba drink if you do a yelp check in and I often take advantage of that. Sometimes yelp doesn't show the check in option but if you show the promotion from yelp page, the workers will still honor the deal. This place is spacious, clean, and workers are friendly. I recommend this place next time you're in the area and want some poke! read more

A great place for poke bowl! The poke bowl was very nice and fresh. We also had spam musubi which was carefully layered and it was very good. They have handmade drinks too - those boba smoothie and stuff. The vibe was nice. They have a lot of board games to play too. read more

Really yummy! Amazing service the guy was very sweet and prepared our meal very well. Clean place and will come again

Fav poke in the area way better than project poke and very fresh they're always really nice but a little bit on the pricey side

Great service and friendly staff. Food is fresh and tasty. The Hawaii island theme was nice to see. Recommend it as a local eatery. Right in the Walmart parking lot area. read more

Very nice clean place, excellent cheerful & friendly service and good prices (I got Thai tea boba).

I would have given this place more stars if they didn't mess up my order so badly. I ordered from UberEats for pick up. They basically gave me everything I didn't want and didn't give me what I asked. It was confusing. I haven't had anywhere mess up this badly in awhile. I did like that they give you a lot compared to some other poke places and the portion was larger but it was almost inedible since many of the items I really hated. They also offer boba drinks as well. The only way I would ever order from here is if I order in person so I can see what they are doing. read more

They served me frozen tuna cubes. The bowl was good but the icy fish chunks really threw me off for $18.50. I've been coming here for years it used to be my favorite but the quality goes down as the prices rise every time. read more

The food here is great -- but the service is very questionable. If you place an order with them they'll completely forget about it, sometimes it takes SIGNIFICANTLY longer than they say it will, etc. read more

This place seriously has the best poke I've ever tried, and I've tried a LOT. The fish is always so fresh, portions are huge, and it's reasonably priced. The sauce options are delicious--my favorite is the Ohana (house). Drinks here are good as well. I like the sunrise passion tea! I recently tried the spam musubi which was very good and decadent. I saw that they have a salmon brûlée dish which I'll definitely try next time. The owner is the sweetest and has such a positive and happy attitude every time. I couldn't recommend this place more! read more

I buy something from this place every single day. they have a USB charging outlet there, so I was using the outlet charging my phone. The manager/supervisor was rude and kicked me out. She and her mom who works in the kitchen are extremely rude with no manners or empathy of others and what they are going through. But the younger guys the work there, they are what the whole employees should learn to follow to be like and to follow there behavior. This place left a bad taste in my mouth. I am never going to recommend them for anyone's pokes cravings. Because of your employees and not because of your horrible manager/supervisors manners is the reason why you have 2 stars instead of 1 read more

Best poke bowl, excellent customer service everyone was very nice. They were patient with us even we couldn't decide on what we like. Very good suggestion. read more

Sorry to leave this review. We normally get all of our poki orders at Nori Poki because every single time we order UberEats/doordash from PokiIsland, when the Poké bowl comes, it's completely DRY even though we order all the sauces - so dry it's basically wasted I can't eat any of the rice as it's just dry white rice. When you spend $25 for a Poké bowl you don't wanna throw half of it away. My daughters have had the exact same experience every time they order & it's so unfortunate because the Poké bowl has all the ingredients that it could be good but I'm not sure why they do this or haven't gotten feedback that they're listening to! read more

Poke Island - California Bowl, Salmon Bowl - Sushi Bars Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

This place looked so good. And it also tasted good, but the reason for my 2 star review is because the person making my bowl was not listening to me and put 3 additional ingredients that I didn't ask for when I did a "make your own" bowl. I kept telling her I didn't ask for that and she was like oops do you want me to take it out? This happened literally 3 different times because she was trying to make multiple bowls all at once which she obviously couldn't do. I didn't want pineapple in my poke bowl! She should have focused on each bowl separately instead of trying to juggle them together to get them finished quicker. read more

Food is amazing. Try the spicy salmon house Musubi. I will drive 30 minutes to get it. Someone mentioned soooo many poke places are around... well look no further. I will come again and again. The only other poke I like is on the island of Oahu read more
