Our favorite poke spot close to home. The parking lot can be kinda crazy because of the Starbucks drive thru or people cutting through to get into the shopping center. But plenty of parking spots. The employees have always been friendly and welcoming. No outdoor seating but plenty of tables inside to enjoy your meal. Everything is s always delicious. My go-to is a regular bowl which comes with 3 scoops of protein with half salad and half white rice. I usually choose ponzu sauce but need to switch it up during our next visit. read more

First time visitor Located next to the Att store (backside can be seen in the Starbucks drive thru) Plenty of parking New rewards program Poki shop also doubles as a ramen stop and yubu stuff pockets and scoops of dessert treat.. so many things in a small spot! Great surprise! Opted for a 3 scoop poki and pleasant surprise offerings included tofu and sesame tofu as and yubu! Salmon albacore scallops tuna octopus shrimp spicy tuna were part of the selection Went with a half and half of brown rice and salad with jalantra (warned it be sour) and the sweet Hawaiian and eel sauces not advertised The person making the bowl was not skimping on fish or toppings and literally my 3 scooped bowl was filled to the top with lid and it was arranged so pretty making it even more appetizing! Total came out to 18.48 - definitely bowl shareable and worth the quality and portion received! The brown rice was warm and mixed with the sauces provided a sweet sour spice combo that was not overpowering to the fish and flavors overall Sesame tofu is a win! Somehow everything stayed in the bowl while consuming The gal helping me was incredible sweet and took her time making the bowl and being honest about the flavors of the sauces. Ensured I had everything to consume. Very welcoming and friendly she was. Would certainly return back to get yubu and try the other goodies! read more

I just had poke for the first time today It was good and fresh Definitely recommend the house sauce they use on the bowls Service was quick and easy and prices are reasonable read more

Went during the week and got the medium bowl with shrimp, spicy tuna and salmon. The spicy tuna for some reason tasted extremely more spicier than usual, my lips were tingling from the spice no kidding it was hot! And everything seemed fine eating from the top of the bowl until I got to the rice at the bottom. The rice was probably the worst I've ever had and I'm not exaggerating sadly. It was hard and lumped together couldn't even chew through it. That unfortunately made the whole meal hard to enjoy. Also, the service wasn't the greatest either. Employees seem to not show love and care for the food and it shows. Not coming back here again. read more

First off, the service was amazing The girl at the counter was very friendly and polite and answered all our questions. The portion was reasonably priced and generous. The interior had spacious spots to sit and eat. Only gripe is parking is a little difficult. Solid spot Would return! read more

Loved the options for toppings and quick service. Especially the tofu. Avocado is always fresh. Sauces are house made and yummy! My favorite is ponzu and jalantro (cilantro-jalapeño) which is also vegan!! read more

My favorite go-to spot for poke! I love coming here because the service is always friendly and efficient. I also love that I can add toppings with little to no extra add-on costs. My bowls are always filled and they've never let me down. The fish always tastes fresh and they currently have a purple rice base that I've been getting as often as I can. There's ample seating inside and it's not too far away from Knott's Berry Farm for those looking for food before they head home. Would highly recommend for anyone passing through Buena Park or Beach Blvd since it's right off the main street! read more

Poke Time - Medium bowl - Poke Near Me - Buena Park, California

I've had poke here a few times and I say it's okay. It's your typical poke spot where you go down the line choosing your base, fish, sauce and toppings. Sauces aren't really tasty and I would need to add some soy sauce almost every single time I order here to give it flavor. Fish is fairly fresh, but fish portions are pretty small. Just not really worth what you're paying for. I wouldn't really recommend and won't really consider this place a solid poke spot. read more

Here I am again, now my son loves it here so looks like we'll keep coming back. Perfect for when I don't feel like eating anything heavy or fried. I finally figured out my custom combination, I get the shrimp, salmon and tuna with the Sweet Hawaiian and Ponzo sauces. The person that helped us was really friendly so I felt guilty about not tipping so I did, hate when the stupid machine asks me. Lots of seating inside and lots of parking outside. read more

Poke Time - 3-Item with white rice - Poke Near Me - Buena Park, California

First time here. A small restaurant with occupancy of 12 people or more. We ordered a medium for 4 protein and spring salad. The protein barely touched my salivary glands the portioning did not even fill up the very small scooper they have to pay $16.95 for this is not worth it. Management should correct this or else you will run out of customers visiting you as customers know what a good quality scoop is. We also ordered their famous Yubu which is just stuffed tofu skin with rice as a base and a little protein on top. They also do not have any water cups so you are forced to buy their soda. And their restroom is out of order? Sorry we are not coming back here. read more

As a friend and I were driving in from out of town, we decided to stop by Poke Time due to our love of poke, the convenient location and positive reviews on Yelp. The place is clean and organized. Service was friendly and helpful. With a decent selection of fish, sauces and toppings, everything tasted fresh and well prepared. I would have given them a much higher rating except for the fact that the restroom was out of order. After a long drive, stopping at what seems to be a welcoming establishment ruined the experience by simply not having a working restroom. I noticed the employees were using the restroom and would immediately lock the door with a key when they were done. It's not that difficult to call a plumber if the restroom was indeed out of order or maybe they just don't want anyone using their restrooms. It just leaves a bad and uncomfortable impression for customers. read more

I was in the area and wanted a fresh filling lunch that was on the healthier side-Poke Time was perfect! Great portion, excellent friendly service, quick in and out for lunch time. Skip the Starbucks line and get a poke bowl here. read more

Bad customer service, they're so mean , the food is good but the workers made me don't wanna eat there again

Place is good. But the prices are a bit crazy. The small bowl is $14.98 Medium bowl is $17.98 Large is $19.98 There's an Asian lady that works there. I try to avoid her, cause she doesn't give you enough for the money that you're spending. The scoops are small as it is. So you get like 3 to 4 pieces of protein, but 3/4 of rice. lol. Smh. Guess I won't be coming back to this place again. $20 for rice and 4 pieces of fish. ‍ Small location mostly people order to go. read more

Tried Poke Time for the first time the other day and was not disappointed. The toppings they offer were pretty similar to the poke spot I normally go to, except for pinapple that was new to me. The staff who helped me, Amin I believe was his name, was nice and efficient and gave good portion. Overall, I'm glad I gave this spot a try and can recommend. read more

I have been coming to poke time for about 2-3 years. This place is hands down the best poke place I have ever had! Ula ula #2 extra spicy Mayo on spicy tuna shrimp and salmon? SMACKS! I usually take it to go but this place also offers you to sit down and eat. Service is great, they are very friendly staff. Although prices have gone like everywhere else, it is still reasonable for the freshness in fish they provide. I recommend this place to anyone looking for that poke fix in the area. read more

I thought I would try this place out since it was so close to home. But I ended up getting bad food poisoning after eating here.

The food is amazing as usual, but the service was beyond compare. I go here quite often as it is my go to poke place and Chika is my favorite staff member by far. Not only are they kind with exceptional service they also serve good portions of fish and toppings truly making your moneys worth. read more

This place is so good, I come here all the time for a quick and healthy lunch. Being a vegetarian, I really appreciate that they have tofu options as well as the usual fish options. That way I can get tofu as my protein and my friends can get fish. They recently started having ice cream, so sometimes I get that as a treat. The staff is always nice and I enjoy coming here. read more

This place is completely dishonest they don't list that they charge extra for certain toppings until you get to cashier. The poke restaurant down the street is so much better than this place and they charge less and they don't charge extra for the toppings. And the taste was literally average and they just don't give enough for what you pay for read more

I wish I had taken more pictures! Honestly it was my first ever time eating Poke and I am beyond happy! I had such a great experience ordering! Jenny was the greatest and Kim was so nice! We were one of the first customers there today and everything was immaculate! Such a fun experience and the food was amazing! read more

We order poke from here often as it is close to our house. I appreciate that they don't charge extra for avocado. I also like that they have different tofu options which I ordered a lot of when I was pregnant and couldn't eat raw fish. read more

Always taste fresh, this has been my go to place for poke this summer! Portions are appropriate for the price!

Came in today (9/25) around 7 PM. We were helped by a worker named Trinice. She was rushing for no apparent reason, no one was behind us. Because of the rush we had a few SANITATION ISSUES with her: 1. Fish dropped outside of the bowl, she just grabs them and put it into our bowl. 2. Onion crisps fell onto the dirty counter, she grabbed it with her hand and dump it back into the container. 3. She didn't bother switching gloves between orders, contaminating our second bowl with sauce/onions/fish from the other. She was super rushy making the ordering process kinda confusing, I was trying to tell her what I wanted but she kept turning around doing other things. There are plenty other poke places around, won't be coming back. read more

Great poke but got charged an extra for a couple Pieces of ginger , but besides that quality is good. read more

Poke Time - Ginger that I got charged extra for - Poke Near Me - Buena Park, California

Eel sauce is not listed as a choice, but it's available on the counter next to fried onions (after toppings are added). I asked for all the toppings, but masago was omitted. Mayo is the sweetener in sweet Hawaiian sauce so I tried to balance it out by mixing ponzu. My bowl was supposed to be half and half with chips, but it was left behind on the assembly line. We ordered large and medium (4 proteins) bowls with brown rice. read more

Poke Time - Medium bowl with albacore, salmon, scallops, and tuna - Poke Near Me - Buena Park, California

If I could I would probably give them a 3.5, but I don't think they should be getting a 3, so I rounded up. Their regular that comes with 3 proteins is $16, which I believe is actually pretty pricey. I got the white rice because they didn't have the option for chips as a base. The white rice was super dry. For my fish, I chose 2 scoops of salmon and 1 scoop of spicy tuna. I mixed the salmon with ponzu, spicy mayo, chili lava, and sesame oil and thought it was a good mix. They have seaweed salad and avocado for toppings, which is always a plus. The lady that took my order was also super nice. Overall, the reasons for the lower rating was the rice consistency and portion size in regards to price. read more

The absolute best place to get a poke bowl. Very large quantities. It's true, they do not skimp like most places. It's worth every penny. The freshness of the seafood is ideal. The veggies are always crisp. The avocado is always perfect. Their sauces are phenomenal. Even when I order delivery, they do an amazing job. Highly recommend coming here and no where else. I'd post more pictures but I go straight to finishing my food (: I honestly think I could eat this every day. read more

I ordered here through DoorDash and received a "medium" size bowl that was a little more than halfway. Thin layer of rice at the bottom. Just enough to cover the bottom surface of the bowl and that's it. Toppings were minimal as well. Disappointed that they skimped out on the quantity of ingredients and handed out a bowl that was not full as the poke bowl itself tasted delicious. I combed through the reviews on here and it seems like others who opted for delivery shared similar sentiments. Whereas, people would order in person had a good experience. I would recommend ordering in person if one chooses to order from here. read more

Poke Time - Medium size bowl - Poke Near Me - Buena Park, California

Their poke bowl was a 4 out of 10. The fish tasted fresh, but their rice tasted very stale and dry. Portions of fish given felt like they were trying to save as much costs as they can. Most restaurants gives me extra seaweed salad and crab meat free of cost since I tell them I won't get any other toppings, but they refused. It's understandable, so I decided to get every single topping instead and threw them away at home. (Just kidding, I gave them all to a friend) unfortunate experience. read more

I LOVE this place. First, the service is always great. I was helped by Jennifer and she gave lots of good suggestions. Second, the food is delicious and always fresh. I love that they offer TOFU now, I rarely see it in other poke places!!! I also like the drink selection and macrons. I asked for extra ginger and I was charged for it. I don't mind though, I know costs for restaurants have gone up everywhere. Finally, the place is clean. I'm definitely going to keep coming back!!! read more

Ah Snap. No Tufu. No meat. I was super hangry and we are already here. I could either be a brat and refuse to eat or put on my big girl pants and eat some Poke. Well I wasn't going to starve and I wasnt going to go further down the Mister's S#*! list anymore this week. I stuck to the small bowl with the least fishy looking protein I could get. I had the Albacore Tuna (3 scoops) mixed with 3 kinds of sauce, sesame oil, onions, ginger, cilantro and cucumber over rice. Then topped it with fried garlic, green onions and sesame seeds. You know what, it wasn't bad at all to this non sushi fan. The Mister got the big bowl, Duh. We were able to add my crab meat to his bowl to give him extra protein. He liked his bowl. This place is hidden and across from the Buena Park mall, where all those restaurants are in the Kohls lot. Plenty of parking. Service was friendly. There is no fountain drinks but they have a water dispensor. read more

I GOT FOOD POISONING. I'm just waking out of my food poisoning hell right now. I had Poke Time for lunch yesterday around 3pm. 2 scoops of salmon, 2 scoops of scallops, 1 scoop of Tuna. Honestly, it all tasted fine. Then I had diarrhea around 8pm. I actually held it in for a couple hours cuz I was out- 24hr fitness, Costco, etc. When I went home, it came out like straight dark water. Not pasty, just liquidy. Then I had a massive headache. Woke up a couple times at night cuz it hurt so bad. And I threw up twice. 5am. And 9am. Wonderful. Not taking a chance here again. read more
