    Loved the fresh ingredients and friendly staff. This place was yummy ! With amazing choices of toppings and unlimited sauces. I got a kids bowl since I get full very fast and the portion for this is amazing.

    Second time here and enjoyed the Poke again! Got a double Ahi Tuna bowl and it did not disappoint. The fish was pretty fresh and the toppings here really stood out. One thing I did notice was that the sushi rice wasn't as tasty as last time but it was still okay. We got a milk tea since it was pretty hot and surprisingly it was solid as well! The tea was pretty flavorful and had a nice touch of brown sugar. Service was friendly and the restaurant was nice and clean. Look forward to coming here again!

    I work in the Mission Grove Plaza and needed a which lunch spot. I'm so glad Poke lounge is in this Plaza next to Stater Bros. Parking is easy peazy. I came on a Saturday late afternoon for lunch. There was one couple ahead of us. Staff was apologetic for the wait. I love a good poke bowl where you add whatever you want. My bowl was falling over with all the toppings! I loved my poke tuna. I will be back!

    Overall, this was just okay. My wife had a poke craving so we decided to just come here and order togo. The prices were basically OC prices so it can be a little higher than your typical $10-15 meal. The 3 scoop bowl came out to be around $19. The portion size was fair but we did have to use the restroom a lot after eating. The salmon and shrimp were fine but the ahi tuna was somewhat questionable. The sushi rice was just plain rice and it was kind of cold and lumpy. The toppings were great though and I love the selections you can do when you put an online order. When picking up, the staff were super nice, and it was clean inside. Since this is the only poke place basically closest to our area, we'll probably be here time to time, but comparing to other poke places in socal, I can't say I would totally recommend this place.

    the place was super good. i got a 2, 2 protein poke bowl and they load you up with toppings. The fish was super good and was not fishy at all, it seemed to be very fresh. The workers were very nice and this is definitely a newer restaurant with good and cheap prices.

    The food here was amazingly delicious I got so full that I had to take some home and save it for lunch the next day for work, which is always a plus Definitely will be revisiting this place time and time again

    Been to most poke joints in Riverside and this place is far my best and go to spot. All of their fish, veggies, and toppings are all fresh. I always get their four protein bowl and it's so fulfilling. Employees are super welcoming and friendly. Clean and spacious. Situated between Stater Bros and Club Pilates.

    Honestly, one of my favorite poke places in riverside. They give such large servings which makes the price worth it. Sometimes they even give extra scoops just because. The place itself is super clean and they have macaron ice creams. The employees are always kind and I have gone about 6 times! The quality of their fish is greata s well, it never tastes frozen like some other poke places i have tried jn riverside.

    I decided to stop at this poke place on Alessandro in Riverside for the first time. The restaurant was very clean and inviting. There were Hawaiian sayings on the walls which added a touch of nostalgia for those of us who love Hawaii and miss it. The service was awesome and very friendly. The poke was very fresh and my two scoop bowl was delicious. I definitely recommend this poke restaurant in Riverside. If you love supporting local businesses and poke definitely stop by.

    On the pricey side, but SO worth it. Service is great and the fish is so fresh. I love the toppings and options they have too. A must-visit for Riverside/Moval residents.

    My boyfriend and I are always looking for new Poké and Sushi spots here in Riverside that offer both fresh tasting food and warm environments. After stumbling upon this place, we instantly fell in love with the vibes of the restaurant. It is such a cute and cozy place for people to hang out, chat, and just have a good time -- even if it's not busy, the environment is just so inviting. When we first walked in, we were greeted right away and the people working had no problems helping us with any questions we had. One of the workers even let us try a piece of their flavored tuna (SO GOOD!). They also offer to mix the protein & toppings/dressings together which was really cool. The food itself was pretty good. My boyfriend thought it could have been just a little more flavorful, and I agreed. BUT it was still really good and filled us up. We will definitely be going back!!

    I come here all the time for lunch! Right after the gym, the portion sizes are always so good. They load it up and I'm always full after any bowl I get ! I recommend coming here !

    Went here today after a delivery I had. The service I will say is spectacular everyone there was so nice and greeted when I came in. The ambiance was very clean and didn't have any signs of uneasiness. The food is where I would say is a bit lacking, I did read previous reviews saying that the fish was too fishy. I wouldn't agree with that but the salmon was on the older side due to the sliminess and the workers immediately removing and replacing after. The sauces I got were the poke sweet and spicy which was not spicy at all. The sauces there were very non saucy. I would give the food a 5/10 due to the fish issues and sauce. But can't give a low score due to service.

They didn't make us feel rushed at all and were really welcoming throughout the whole ordering process.

The toppings bar was also really solid with a lot of options, and everything looked fresh and well stocked. I liked that you could customize your bowl however you wanted and still have everything pair well together. One thing I really liked is that they actually pack the containers full, so it genuinely feels worth the money.

There have been times the staff seems high and blown out of their minds. Other times they are too busy chatting up with coworkers to acknowledge or provide even the basic decency of customer service. Then, more often than not you are treated almost as a bother. Due to the service here, I have stopped dining in and opt for calling a phone order to take out. On three separate occasions now, within the last 3 months, they have neglected the phones for orders. They would rather disconnect or turn off the phone completely to avoid any future orders. This comes as a surprise when in about 10 minutes of my first attempted call, I see a staff of four people, yet only one customer. I believe there was no excuse as to why they could not answer the phone. I confirmed they accept take out orders essentially until closing. I have always been mindful to not attempt to order within 30 minutes of them closing. The service here is appalling and truly diminishes their potential for how great the spot could be considering the food they have. Food on the other hand is a total opposite of the service, very flavorful and strong punch of spice at a level 3. My go to is the Wonton ramen with a miso base. Crispy rice is a great starter to share. The garlic ramen is also a great contender if you have a garlic craving. Open layout feels like a mom and pop shop. Overall pretty clean establishment. Occasional tweaker going in for the bathroom closer to the end of the night.
