    This has got to be one of Pasadena's medal winner for being in business, in the same space, for more than 15 years (it may be more, but that how long I've been going there :) Needless to say, if you're looking for a great tea drink: flavorful, natural, fresh, and yummy... come here. And if you're feeling hungry, dive into the poke bar. Personally, I love their rice rolls: salmon, spicy tuna, and more. With excellent friendly service and fantastic food, PokeMix is an A+

    I'm from Hawaii & this place hits the spot when I'm craving poke. Quick, friendly service, & easy to order. My go-to is the small (2-choice protein) build your own bowl. They have a current Happy Hour special on weekdays from 3-6pm where you get a free drink with any bowl :) They also have a nice & clean restroom for customers.

    A follow up review to the owner's reply: The portion is definitely not the same size. You skimped out on both, rice and fish. It was 30% less. I've been eating at your restaurant for the last 7 months, regularly. I can tell the difference. The bowl is the same, yes. But the contents of the bowl are way way less this time. A very small portion for $21!! This is medium size. It used to be bigger. Bought it for lunch but definitely need to buy another small meal to hold me up until dinner. Not going back. Also, they forgot wasabi. Two stars for freshness.

    Sushi was great quality, average price. The pike was also really good quality, the salmon marinade was the perfect blend of spicy and a kick of sweet. LOTS of sides available. Boba slushee was also really good, not overly sweet The staff was super friendly and looked genuinely happy to be doing this, he's gotta be the owner or something. My only suggestion is some sort of music or background noise. Other than that the inside is cute and minimalist. Very clean

    Clean environment, rapid service, and good poke! The happy hour from 3-6pm is a great deal, free drink with bowl.

    Tried this place for the first time and really enjoyed it! Minimal options for toppings (which I prefer), and the fish was very fresh. Quick and friendly service. Will be back!

    I ordered delivery and was really disappointed, especially with the spam rice ball. I was charged $3.99, but look at what I got... I could barely find any spam--just a few tiny pieces, maybe 3-4 micro-sized bits. Definitely not worth it!

    I have been craving poke bowls for the last few weeks. I saw PokeMix on Lake Ave in Pasadena and said BINGO! I was hooked. Staff was super friendly. Atmosphere was nice and comfy. Good space with lots of inside seating. Besides poke bowls, they also sell boba drinks. They have a small water station available for customers. They even sell some trinkets or something of the like. Here is how it works... bowl is one size, but the number of scoops of fishes and seafood come in 3 sizes. Small $12.99 = 2 scoops, Medium $14.99 = 3 scoops, Large $16.99 = 4 scoops. An extra scoop is $2 per scoop. Go for the Large! I did and so glad I did... it was very very tasty and delicious! I got half brown rice and half salad as my base plus Ahi Tuna, Salmon, and Scallop with all the wet and dry toppings mixed with House Poke, Eel, and Spicy Miso sauces. I thought I would take some poke home, but I couldn't stop eating it and before I knew it, it was all gone in my tummy LOL. Please note they have limited selection of fishes and toppings, but still adequate for a great poke bowl. Before I left, I was curious about their tea drinks. I ended up getting a medium Green Milk Tea with mango jelly. It was good, but a tad more bitter than I would have preferred. I asked for no ice, but still got ice. No big deal... I just scooped the ice out. I definitely recommend this place. I know I'll be back for more great tasting poke bowl!

    Sushi looked and is fresh! Their service was very nice! I would definitely come here again :)

    Ordered my food ahead for pickup which said 15-25 minute pick up time which isn't bad for mid day in a business area. I placed my order when I was about 15 minutes away walking. I use my lunch break to take a walk outside so picking up the food vs delivery made more sense. My food ended up being ready in 3 minutes which was perfect! My only issue was when I arrived my food was just sitting on the counter instead of in a temperature controlled environment. a little disheartening since the food can spoil rather quickly. Overall the food was great & I would try it again. Next time around I will order in store and hopefully can still avoid any lines.

    It's great to have so many fresh elements in one bowl,taste great!

    Great food, great service, great vibes! Highly recommend if you're in the area. Absolutely loved this spot! The interior is stylish yet cozy, perfect for both a casual meal or a special night out. The food is packed with flavor -- especially the [insert dish name] . Service was warm and thoughtful, which made the whole experience even better. Will for sure be back again soon!

    Nice place for poke and boba tea drinks. Large menu and they deals for after 3pm poke bowls.

    Awesome customer service, clean space. Parking is street parking. Indoor space no outdoor. I added house poke, spicy mayo, and spicy chili. And taste delicious!

The macadamia pancake was a massive amount of vanilla custard with a stingy amount of macadamia nut sprinkled on it. If you love massive amounts of custard, then this is for you. Unfortunately the custard did not compliment the pancakes but rather overwhelmed them. I have a favorite Hawaiian food spot in Lawndale and will make the trip as it is definitely worth it.

This is my third visit and every single time it delivers. This is an Indonesian/Hawaiian restaurant -- and a seriously impressive one. The menu spans both worlds, and no matter which direction you go, you're in for something special. Take out only, no tables, but trust me -- you won't care. The 4 Piece Indonesian Fried Chicken with rice is an absolute must. Some of the best fried chicken I have ever had. The crust is insanely crispy, the seasoning is perfect, and the Indonesian dipping sauce ties it all together in a way that's completely unique. This alone is worth the drive. The Hawaiian plates are equally impressive. The short ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, the beef and chicken were perfectly marinated -- sweet, savory, and deeply flavorful. Everything comes with rice and a creamy mac salad, and the Hawaiian Sun drinks (Mango Orange and Strawberry Lilikoi) are the perfect companion to wash it all down. Plates run between $16-$20 but the portions are generous and the quality is exceptional -- you absolutely get your money's worth. The owner and cook are extraordinarily welcoming, and everything comes out hot and fresh every single time. Top Restaurant is a hidden gem of the highest order. If you're in Pasadena, make the trip.

This is a small Market that has a little bit of everything that you're looking for from Southeast Asia. It's like a 7-Eleven, Filipino style. It's fun to look at the various items available here. You will always end up with more than just what you were looking for. I enjoy the cracker nuts, dried mangoes, and specialty dried items. Their selection of items is always changing so I like to look at what's new and on display. I will sometimes ask the front counter what just came in. The Fresh Deli, located up a small incline to the left as you enter the market, is spectacular. The flavor of the food permeates the entrance to the market. They have an incredible selection of fresh made food. It is difficult to make a decision between the different items. I asked for some help from the gentleman behind the counter. I've dealt with Christian, Gabriel and Abraham and all three are knowledgeable and helpful. He was able to explain how some of the food was prepared and the special attention that was given to each individual item. I wanted to limit myself to two items. I decided on the special marinated Beef Caldereta and the Lechon Kawali. On another trip I decided to try the Pork Tochino and the Barbecue Chicken Skewers. I can't tell you how happy I am with the flavors of the food from the deli. Everything was done to perfection. The Chicken skewers were tender and moist with a great barbecue flavor. The Toccino had a nice marinade flavor and was not too sweet. The Lechon was tender and had enough fat to give it a great flavor and texture. I have to admit the Caldereta was my favorite. Great taste, texture, and just the right spices to give it a little kick. The rice and noodles were a perfect accompaniment. All the sauces I was given added to the flavor of all the dishes. At the cash register at the front counter I paid for my items and asked about other items coming in in the near future. I found out that they are not always sure what's going to become available but always looking for something that will make their customers happy. This is truly a family establishment. I found out that everybody there is related. They definitely give exceptional service and quality merchandise, and delicious food. I look forward to coming back and trying many other items both in their market area as well as the Deli.
