I am always on the lookout for a good sushi burrito/poke place and I have found a new go to in Poke Wave. They have plenty of House Burritos and Bowls but have the option to make your own. They have an excellent assortment of fillings. Everything was fresh and the staff was super friendly and helpful. They also have Dole Whip for dessert. I will be back for sure! read more

Best poke place. As a poke lover, I've been to many places, but this is the best value for money. Try fresh salmon, octopus, and shrimp. Other places charge close to $15 for 2 scoops, but here it is around $13. Please, please, stay open for a long time. read more

This poke place is not just an ordinary place. It has more than just regular salad. I would recommend their citrus kale salad with your mix ins. They have a lot of other topping options to choose for your salad. You can make your own salad or choose their signature bowls. They do have their regular sauces for your salad but you can ask them for suggestions for tasty sauce combinations with your salad. They do have sushi burritos as well. You can either make your own or choose from their signature sushi burritos. The miso soup is also very good and comforting. In my opinion, it is the best one in the east valley. It's a clean pls e and the staff is friendly. Finally, their sushi burrito containers are very efficient and effective if you are on the go. read more

Bright cheerful interiors--blue and white with blonde wood. Helpful concerned server. Delicious bowl.

I was excited to hear about a new Hawaiian style poke place, so I had to check it out. It was delicious, I was really impressed, all the fish was super fresh, and the toppings were unique and really delicious. The kimchi cucumbers especially are my favorite, I'll be back again to try more! read more

Love this place! I was hooked as soon as I tried their delicious Wave-rritos! I tried all the options for these and honestly none were disappointing, but my favorites are the sake-soy beef (Honua) and the baked salmon (Kukui). They also have a lot of options for toppings if you decide to get a bowl. Staff is very friendly, and this cute place is always very clean. It's a good spot to eat after the gym or after shopping next door. Did I mention they have Dole Whip? Perfect treat after a yummy meal! Poké Wave is a must try! read more

10/1/2019 update I finished two punched card! Very happy customer 3/29/2019 update Is Poke Wave "Thursday" again I love this place they always treat you like family and give you plenty of food vs Ahi Poke bowl down by Ray and i 7/19/2018 update I love love love poke wave. The owners are so nice and they always give me a big bowl of food! I saw that they were voted the best top 50 places to eat in 2018? That's legit from my book. Keep up the good work guys! Since Ahipoki Bowl, there are tons of similar restaurants popping up in the valley. I have been here twice for lunch and Poke Wave serves up some delicious Poke bowl. They have the similar fish and toppings to choose from, including mango and pineapples. The owner and staff are very nice. The place is clean and inviting. Give it a try... it's delicious read more

There is definitely a wave of poke restaurants cascading throughout the Phoenix area and I'm not complaining! I was super hungry and a bit brain dead so I appreciated that there are pre-set options for poke bowls for those that don't feel like making a custom bowl. I went with the Aloha Classic, 3 scoops with spring salad. The classic comes with ahi tuna, onion, green onion, sesame seeds, red pepper flake, and classic Hawaiian shoyu. Not a bad combo at all! It was made in a speedy amount of time and I did add a few extra toppings (Cucumber kimchi, nori seaweed). I enjoyed the bowl for the most part. The greens and fish were fresh and the toppings plentiful. The flavors all complimented each other well. The bowl was overdressed though, drenched in sauce so on some bites of salad all I could taste was the salty shoyu and nothing else. Eating 3 scoops of poke plus the salad base didn't quite fill my stomach up for lunch though so I had to scrounge for some more stuff to snack on afterwards. Service was friendly and quick. I'll be back for more poke bites but I will ask for a lighter amount of sauce next time. Since we have no beaches here in AZ to surf any waves I will settle for riding poke waves! read more

Poke Wave - 3 scoop classic aloha bowl with spring mix - Poke Near Me - Tempe, Arizona

My daughter and I chose Poke Wave for lunch after reading the great reviews, and they did not disappoint! Loved the choices of fish and other options. Fish was very fresh, which is a concern anywhere that serves it raw. Helpful and attentive staff, very fast service. What looked like too large of a portion was quickly devoured as did not want to waste one bite! Will definitely return! read more

My daughters comment after the first bite "never disappoints" we've been her 4 times now and it is BY FAR our favorite poke place! My daughter is working her way down the burrito menu, Pele is her favorite so far. I build my own bowl and try to switch it up a bit too but everyone has been great!!! Super clean and the staff is always nice.The only draw back to this place is the parking and being located next to Frys, but it's soooo worth it! read more

Q: What is the difference between a piano and a fish? A: You can tune a piano but you cannot tuna fish. I know, I know, it seems like I eat a lot of poke --- and for the most part, I do! It's usually on days when I take cycle class and I don't want to eat back the calories I just burned. With that said, I was actually heading next door at Fry's to buy some cojita cheese for a Cinco de Mayo elote chip dip when I saw the light. Like a moth, I was drawn towards it. After poking my head inside, I learned that they were open for business. Whoa! I was just trying to creep around! This place is heavily Korean influenced, rightfully so since the owners are Korean, and I love it. The kimchi cucumber is a great addition and the rice puff topping is fun. They offer a citrus kale salad base which is a nice option than the usual typical spring mix. Get white rice, brown rice, half-and-half, or a salad. They have a huge selection for toppings, sauces, and mix-ins. Go wild! The portions are generous and the protein is fresh, even at 8ish at night. Their knife cuts are even. I love that they have mangoes, pineapple, corn, and jalapeños. I'm a sucker for some sweet and some heat. Make me burn, babie! It's $9.50 for two scoops of protein and $11.50 for three scoops. The dining space is cozy and they do offer some outdoor seating. The staff is friendly and very patient. There were a lot of poke newbies inside and I don't think I heard even the slightest bit of irritation when they had to keep repeating and explaining things to customers. Since they just opened on May 1st, they even gave us free iced teas because, "it's a celebration!" How can you not fall in love with these guys!? read more

Poke is my new thing now and I am that kind of a person who loves freshness in my meal. That being said not a everyday salad person either. We happened to go to Fry's next door and saw this place popping with people. Thats when I was like we gotta try this place. We went for lunch and went with their baked salmon Kukui sushi burrito. There was a little bit of wait time but wasn't that long after all. The package is pretty impressive and how they have maintained the designs from their to go boxes to their chopsticks. The sushi burrito was pretty good except for the lettuce they used. It was a little more than required and I had to ignore it. I split the burrito with my friend and that half a burrito was not filling at all. I could easily eat whole of it. The salmon was good and so was the fillings. I liked the consistency and how the rice was not overpowering. The price is definitely on the higher side but totally worth it. This place is definitely going on my rotation. read more

I was lured in because of the unique and tantalizing waverritos, but now I'm hooked and riding the Poke Wave. Their waverritos are one-of-a-kind because they have cooked options like garlic salmon, sake-soy beef, and chicken karaage. I've had the kukui (garlic salmon) and honua (sake-soy beef) waverritos and they're both delicious, stuffed with a ton or toppings and unique to Poke Wave (at least in AZ as far as I'm aware). I like that they have more cooked options other than imitation crab, unlike most places, as my wife doesn't like the raw stuff. As for the poke itself, the fish quality is great and their portions are pretty big. They have a TON of toppings, to the point where I feel a little bad about getting all the items that I love. I really like their unique (again) base option of citrus kale salad - I love citrus, I love kale, and combined together it makes for a great bed for all that delicious raw fish and toppings. The service here is really great too. I came in one night and spoke to a man who I believe was the owner. I had asked if they could make a waverrito into a bowl per my wife's request, and he had no problems with it and told me as he was adding substitutes that would usually come with the waverrito, for instance throwing on some shredded seaweed on top to make up for the missing seaweed wrap among other things. The worker assembling my build-your-own bowl also didn't complain as I was adding more and more to my creation. It's a little bit further out than some of the other spots, but I think it's worth the extra couple cents in gas to come here. This is my favorite poke spot in the Valley at the moment, and probably for the foreseeable future. read more

Healthy, delicious and fresh. Reasonably priced and patient, good service. So glad we stopped in for a quick informal dinner.

Came in here for lunch with coworkers and we were all blown away. It wasn't too busy but there were a lot of people on and out with to go orders. It's not a huge shop but there are about 10 tables and a bar seating area. The menu is simple you can get a burrito or a bowl and you can order off the menu or build your own. The staff was amazingly friendly and took the time to walk us through the menu and options. I got the build your own bowl and it was UNREAL. My coworkers both got the Pele and dole whips. They raved over the Pele's immediately stating this needed to be a regular for us. I tried the dole whip and it was also amazing (which I already knew cause Disney lol). When I built my own they explained what everything was and were extremely helpful even suggested what would taste best together when I didn't know what sauce or seasoning to get. Will be back! read more

I normally love the poke bowls here, but when I went recently I got food poisoning from the Hawaiian tuna and had diarrhea 3x within 40 minutes while I was at work and lower abdominal pain. I've never had food poisoning from here before, so I'm hoping it's a fluke, but I recommend trying other poke restaurants like Ahipoke or Pokitrician which have never given me food poisoning. read more

Being a huge fan of poke I have tried most poke joints in the area (thankfully we have may in Chandler). When it comes to quality of ingredients - Poke Wave is by far my favorite. They are also very allergen-aware and would guide you if you have any restriction. Fish is always fresh and delicious and service is great! read more

Once again, updating my review to 5 stars because this place freakin rocks. I absolutely love their sushi burritos and I've made my own each time I've gone in. My only concern was the lack of sauce but I've gotten soy sauce and their house sauces on the side, which has helped tremendously. And the customer service here is just so good! The folks are so friendly and the extra touch makes a difference; they wrap up my sauce so it doesn't leak on my way back. I can't get enough of their Hot Cheetos wrap, at one point it catches in my throat and makes me cough, but worth it. Thanks Poké Wave! I got your sticker on my water bottle so I'm spreading the word. read more

I saw this on the Yelp top 50 places to eat in Phoenix, so made plan to come here for lunch when I was in the area for work. There are plenty of poke places in chandler but this was definitely one of the better ones! I got the make your own sushi burrito (as shown in photo). It came in a very innovative, cylindrical box. I was pretty fascinated with the packaging, I must admit. First time seeing it used. They had the necessary toppings and proteins, similar to a lot of the other places. This place was a bit on the more expensive side - mine with the avocado came out to almost 12 dollars. Despite the price, I would still come back for lunch once in a while. Facilities are clean, plenty of parking spots. Points redemption available! read more

Delicious, healthy, and the best customer Service! My husband and I went here after grocery shopping at the Fry's next door. It's very similar to Subway let's say as you look at the menu order from one side walk across making selections and then pay at the end. I had absolutely no idea what most of the men you even said but the gentleman at the counter or was extremely nice, patient, and made suggestions knowing we were newcomers. Since the first time, we have returned a few more times and somehow they actually remember us! This just tells me that they care incredibly about their customers which is awesome! We have had the bowls and the sushi burritos. I highly recommend pretty much anything on the whole menu. read more

This evening I ordered my bowl via delivery. I had high expectations, due to the reviews. However, the portion did not meet the expense. And although it was pretty tasty and fresh, I had to spit out three pieces that I can only describe as gristle. I am extremely disappointed. I have experienced much more generous, less expensive and far more tasty poke bowls. I guess that's a sign of the times. read more

Updated review: what are you waiting for??? This place is the most consistent in bringing in quality and quantity for a great price! Customer service is always outstanding. Don't be afraid to ask questions! Definitely a hidden gem!! We will continue to support this poke place!! Husband and I went here for the first time and the poke experience was amazing! I've had poke bowls before but this was my husbands first time ever with sashimi lol. Turns out he was a huge fan and is now a fan of poke!! I had the ahi tuna and spicy tuna as my two protein and from that first bite the quality was just like I remember fresh tuna would taste like!!! Melts in your mouth and SHOULD NOT be fishy at all!!! I highly recommend you give this place a try! They are really reasonable priced for the quality you get along with the variety of toppings and sauces to choose from! The owner was very pleasant ansuper friendly and helpful giving my husband some info on the choices! We will def come back!!! Please go check it out!!! read more

There are a number of poke/bowl/wrap spots along Ray Rd, but for bowls - Poke Wave is the best. (Edit: looks like they have poke burritos now!! Will have to try it and report back!) First off, the portions are generous. Having a square bowl allows for a bit more food than the round bowls at other places. There is a nice variety of proteins offered (including tofu for vegetarians!), and everything tastes really fresh. They put a lot of care and attention into the freshness of the fish and toppings and you can taste in in your dish. Every poke place is different and I love the unique toppings at Poke Wave, including the kimchi cucumber and fried garlic. Adds so much flavor and texture. Service was great and they offered to let me taste all of the sauces to best choose which one I'd like. It was hard to decide because they were all yummy. For drinks they have a variety Hawaiian canned juices and sodas, as well as fresh iced teas - unsweetened which is great because you can sweeten it to your own liking. An amazing family-run local poke spot - I will be back for more! read more

I custom made my Bowl. I ordered the Large salad with two scoops of tako (octopus) and one scoop of tuna. The sauces I picked were the Spicy Seasame shoyu and lime ponzu. They have lots of toppings to choose from pineapple, mango, masago, cucumber, seaweed, dried garlic and onion and I forget the rest. Regular is $9.50 two scoops of protein Large is $11.25 three scoops of protein The two sauces mixed have my bowl a spicy/citrus taste. If you don't like spicy, do not try the spicy seasame shoyu! I liked it, but most people won't. They have lots of Hawaiian juices and drinks for sale. Great food, everything tasted fresh, definitely will be back for more poke. read more

There's a reason this place is in the top 50 restaurant list in AZ on Yelp. You can see and taste the freshness of the fish and they have a great selection of toppings for the poke bowl as well as a great assortment of fruity frozen yogurt including the always amazing "Dole Whip." I am a huge fan of stamp cards, and we've gotten two bowls for free because we've filled out entire cards. I like that they have an option of rice, mixed greens, and kale salad for the base so you can switch it up if you want. You can order your bowl in burrito form if you need to eat your poke on the go. read more

Poke Wave is the best poke in Arizona. You can't beat the price and quality here. The staff are friendly and give generous portions. I usually opt for 3 scoops (salmon and Hawaiian tuna are my favorites). The topping selections are excellent. I usually ask for everything from mango to pickled onion to seaweed salad to kimchi cucumber to crispy garlic and furikake. I would eat here everyday if I could. Don't forget to try their dole whip for dessert. The space is clean and handicap accessible. There's a reason they're one of the top 50 places to eat in Arizona according to Yelp in 2019. read more

Recently moved to the area from California and looking for a poké place. This is the second place I've tried in the area. After reading the reviews I had high expectations and I was quiet disappointed. It wasn't the freshest and customer service was eh. My bowl had 3 scoops of Hawaiian Tuna & 1 Ahi Tuna, the Hawaiian tuna didn't taste any different than the ahi tuna. I did like the sriracha aioli, had plenty of spice (which a lot of other places lack in their "spicy mayo"). I also had brown rice that was ok. They also charge extra for their imitation crab.... that's a first. read more
