The best poke ever!! I decided to stop by just for a quick lunch for the first time and was not expecting to have the best poke I've ever had. I eat poke very often. Simple, refreshing, great portions, friendly staff, and there is parking. read more

This is the best place for poke salad bowls!!! Their dressing is sooooo good. A large was definitely too much for my sister and I but man... did we regret NOT getting all salad. Salmon was fresh (except for my 2 fishy pieces) but hey, could be worst. Workers are friendly and definitely appreciate all the free toppings! Some build your own bowl places limit how many items you can choose and give you small portions! Sriracha Mayo was a bit too heavy so I will stick to the lighter sauces next time. Too bad this place isn't closer to home.. would come here all the time! read more

Still one of the best poke spot I have been to and will continue to go too. Service is great and food is delicious, this place is pretty much awesome ! read more

Pokestuf is hands down my favorite local lunch spot. Their service is very fast and friendly, and the order pickup process is super easy and always ready by the time I arrive, even if I order only a few minutes in advance. It's conveniently located on Main St. The poke is always so fresh and tastes amazing. I have tried most of the sauces; my top 3 are the Miso Habanero (very tangy and spicy), Cilantro Yozu Kosho, and Lemongrass Ponzu. I eat here multiple times a week for lunch and love every bite. I do agree with some of the reviews that sometimes they might skimp on the protein amount they provide, but there are other times when they do provide a decent amount. Its a hit or miss. As for taste, service, and quality? 10/10 read more

Woohoo! Glad I pressed through with my original plan to pick up food from Pokestuf. Almost changed my mind as it was getting chillier. Placed the order over the phone. The person who answered was very helpful answering any questions I had. Quoted 5 minutes for pick up. As I drove closer to Pokestuf, happy memories washed away my weary day! I remember this was the first poke spot that opened nearby after I had my very first poke bowl in Old Town Pasadena. Then, of course, poke places started popping up in several convenient locations over the years. I brought several friends to try the poke here too. Pre-pandemic, it was nice to dine in as it's situated on a sunny corner. I think we had played some games too. And there was self-serve refreshing drinking water. I hope I'm remembering the right things as it's been years, haha! As I ate my regular bowl of a mix of ahi, salmon, and albacore, my body started to feel revitalized and I started to smile! Wow, what a healing meal. Got half brown rice and half mixed greens for the base. The mixed greens are not the typical spring mix salad that tends to get wet and mushy. The ones Pokestuf use are hearty leafy greens! Mmmmm... the photo does not do it justice. Great combo with all the free toppings in both of the first two columns minus the red chili flakes. Added the seaweed salad too and chose Lemongrass Ponzu for the flavoring. The regular size was just the right amount for me. I think I would get the large for a post-workout or hike meal. Parked on the street out front, paid inside, and picked up my food. There was a sneeze guard to protect both the cashier and me. Out in less than a couple minutes! read more

Pokestuf - Mix Of Ahi, Salmon, Albacore, Regular, with all the free toppings, minus the chili flakes, plus the Seaweed Salad - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

It was raining and I was craving poke to eat while watching Netflix. I strolled to Pokestuf for takeout. I ordered the regular bowl with mixed greens and all ahi tuna. The sauces I selected were sesame shoyu and lemongrass ponzu. Since there were so many options, I was glad the friendly cashier offered me samples. For toppings, I got all the free toppings available and picked seaweed salad as my free premium topping. After getting home and eating, I'm happy to say that Pokestuf does serve good poke. The mixed greens were all crisp and fresh, while the tuna were largely cubed and did not taste fishy at all. Sauces were added in just the right amount to enhance the natural flavors of the ingredient without making the entire bowl soggy and wet like some other places. Overall, I was very happy with my bowl and will definitely be coming back in the future. Even though it's slightly pricier than some poke places, I was literally so full from the amount of food I got. Worth it! read more

Pokestuf - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

Good serving size & their fish are really fresh! I enjoyed the large bowl with all 3 of their fish options, each bite was a surprise. Interestingly they have soba noodle as a base, but I stuck to my comfort zone of getting half rice and half salad lol They have plenty of parking in the back, and wait time from ordering to getting the food was not too long. If I can rave about one thing it would be their sauce selection!!! You can get up to 3 different types free of charge, and it almost feels like the combinations are endless. I love spicy and went for sriracha mayo, sambal spicy & miso habanero... let's just say I got a bit emotional while eating it. read more

Never mind I had the worst luck I got food poisoning from this place /: you can already imagine

This place is not bad! I came here during my lunch break and ordered a regular poke bowl with salmon and brown rice. I ordered everything from the included toppings area and a few other things from the optional areas. I got the Thai sauce which was very light. They have a lot of different sauces so I'll have to come back and try others. Although I ordered brown rice, the toppings included spring mix so it was actually like half brown rice and half salad!! Portions were pretty good. Service is friendly. A pretty good amount of tables to sit and they also have board games if you want to play. They give you a piece of candy with your food too. Plentiful parking the structure in the back or some street parking. read more

Pokestuf - Regular salmon poke with brown rice - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

I absolutely love this place! Pokestuf offers fresh and delicious poke bowls! I usually end up getting a regular bowl with the three fish offerings: Tuna, Salmon, and Albacore along with brown rice and salad. I love mixing it with the lemongrass Yuzu and miso honey sauces that are offered. They give pretty generous portions along with plenty of topping options! This is a definite must try if you love Poke bowls! The service here is also pretty friendly as well! Thank you Pokestuf for your delicious offerings! read more

The rice is always warm here! Everyone is clean and the poke is always delicious. It's perfect for warm days because their AC is always on. Sometimes a little too generous with the spicy Mayo. Served quickly. read more

Pokestuf - Poke - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

Used to love this place but not sure why service and quality has gone down. Last two times we ordered delivery one of 2 bowls was missing. Their number doesn't work when you call to clarify or find out if the rest of the food is there. Normally I would assume maybe the driver made a mistake but the food was bagged and labeled without the items that were in the order. The fish quality is also inconsistent and couldn't even eat our food one of the last times we went because it had such a "fishy" taste to it. Bummed because we have been coming here for years and it's just one thing after another. read more

I usually come here and am greeted but today felt different, I came in on a Tuesday an hour before closing and I was given horrible service as if this girl didn't want to work. It's an hour before closing it would've been different if I came in 10 mins before when they were already packing stuff up and cleaning the counter tops. When she called out my name she just slid the food towards the end of the counter where I was standing and there was a bit of as if she didn't want to be there. Look if you want to come here the food is good just didn't like the service. Also I hope the owner tells her to fix that attitude problem read more

Pokestuf is my favorite poke lunch spot! What makes them unique is they have soba noodles on the menu that pair perfectly with their ponzu sauce with the sriracha Mayo sauces! The fish is incredibly fresh and everything overall is very fresh! The food feels light and everything just blends really well with each other! The workers make it really fast as well and there's parking spots in the back of the place! read more

Pokestuf - Large Bowl - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

So yum!! I'm a little picky with my poke but am so glad that I really enjoyed Pokestuf. Their regular bowl is a little under $13, which isn't bad compared to many of the other poke shops. The portion is pretty reasonable too! The fish is cut into bigger chunks and it was sooo delicious. I got a miso & sesame sauce mixed in with the fish and a spicy mayo drizzle. They also offer some other sides at an extra cost, which I didn't mind paying since the base bowl already included a good amount of toppings. Will definitely be returning for some more! read more

This was my first time here and they took my order even though I arrived a minute before they closed. They give a good amount of food compared to other poke places but regarding the rice or noodles. They don't have as large of a menu as other poke places. Their options are limited especially their protein choices. They have different sauces which I appreciate, but they don't put a lot of sauce on their dishes especially if you get it with the rice. The toppings are decent but they only allow 1 premium toppings for free. I would say that is somewhat typical of poke places, about half of them offer the same premium toppings for free and the other half charges for them. But I do wish they offered avocado as a topping. Additionally, more sauces you can add on top such as ell sauce. There is a parking lot right behind the store which is convenient. read more

I love coming to this place! Great price/portion/selections. Friendly service. Will be coming back

Favorite place to eat Poke in Alhambra/MP area. Prices increased to ~$11. Not sure why. Owners and staff are nice, parking is limited behind the restaurant, and the place is always clean! They have boardgames and WiFi if you want to stay awhile, but it is located on a busy street. Instructions are easy to remember and they give a lot of rice, veggies, and fish. I normally get the regular size (L option), half brown rice half mixed veggies (spring mix; white rice or soba noodle options), salmon & ahi tuna (albacore is optional). Flavor: Lemongrass Ponzu or Sesame Shoyu. Everything in the 1st column (salad, avocado, cucumber, onion, masago, fried onion, furikake), 2nd: Edamame/sesame seeds, pickled ginger, 3rd: Free Add of seaweed salad. This is my favorite place for Poke in the area! read more

After looking for some good poke I found this place and decided to try it. It was nice and empty, since I've been very aware about what I eat I ordered each item carefully. In the end I don't think what I got, which was basically, mixed greens, cucumber and salmon worth the price they have. I wish there were more toppings in order to make it worth it. The server forgot to put edamame in my bowl and forgot that I asked for a side of edamame for my daughter. My mixed greens were drenched in the sesame shoyu and it made my whole salad soggy. The flavors were good just not the best to make me return. read more

I been going here for awhile. This place is great for some quick and healthy poke. There's milk tea that comes with free boba. From all the poke places in Alhambra, I like coming here and the service is nice. They're able to answer my questions and let me try their flavors. Games and many free tables are in here in case people want to bring friends or family. I usually get a regular half rice and salad with salmon, add some toppings, and the flavor is sriracha mayo. It's so good! I tried the cilantro-lime but did not like it. read more

Pokestuf - Poke :) - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

This place used to be pretty decent. I would come often since I lived on Main st, but I've since moved out to Monterey Park. My wife and I decided to order this through Uber Eats for old time's sake..big mistake cause I'm so damn hungry now. Sadly, I wish I could give this place a better score. Ordered 2x of the regular poke bowl through ubereats and it took longer than most. After the long wait only one of the bowls arrived. Now I'm hungry and kinda irritated. At least they didn't forget my wife's. She thinks her poke is so-so, she prefers Pisces poke to this one 100%. My poke bowl gets a 0 star... thanks for the plastic fork though! I'll keep it for when we get poke at Pisces next time instead. read more

Pokestuf - My missing order, thanks for the fork though! - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

Pretty decent poke place in the area! I ordered the regular bowl with salmon and lemongrass ponzu. The fish and ingredients tasted really fresh and the sauce was perfectly tangy/savory. I love that you get to mix and match so much and customize it to your liking. Portion size was decent as well. This is more of a takeout place, but I'd def come by again next time I'm craving poke! read more

Pokestuf - Regular bowls - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

My fave poke spot in Alhambra. The freshness of the fish (Salmon, Albacore, Ahi, Spicy Tuna ($ extra), Garlic Shrimp($ extra)) and the assortment/variety of the sauces, toppings, and premium toppings (Korean pickles ftw) put it over the top. I haven't had a bad poke bowl here and can't recommend it more. Parking+Ordering Tips: Parking in the back is easy and you can order in-store. Would recommend calling in your order or ordering in-store, DoorDash is up-marked like a mofo (reg bowl ~$11 In-store vs ~$16 DD). Service is quick. read more

Pokestuf - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

I've heard great reviews about Pokestuf so I had to try it out for myself. Located on the corner street of Main & 4th Street - there is a 2 hour parking lot behind the restaurant on the right or street parking is also available. Regular ($9.50): Available soba noodle option for your base which is unique. I opted for the mixed greens and brown rice with ahi and salmon coated with lemongrass ponzu + sriracha mayo. On the menu board is a list of items that is standard with each bowl as well as a section for free add ons and premium items. The overall flavor of the poke bowl was pretty fresh and flavorful. Decent portion since you are paying more of a premium price for a bowl. I did like that avocado is a standard (free) item with each bowl but the seaweed salad and crab salad are premium items at $1 for each item (normally free from other poke places I've been to). Since avocados were not in stock at the time, I was given the choice to add an additional premium item for free. I opted for the seaweed & crab salad - I didn't like how both salads were combined into my mixed greens. Wish we presented with the option to have them on the side. There is also only three types of fish options to select from: ahi, salmon, albacore. Spicy tuna was an extra $1 charge! Boo. I wouldn't say this is one of the top poke spots I've tried but it isn't the worst either (in terms of quality and flavor). It does get pricey though compared to other poke eateries! read more

So damn delicious! I went with the regular size, and I'm so glad I did seeing as that it was packed so full of goodness, they had to tape it shut. I did add spicy tuna (it's my favorite) and went without the kale (I just don't like it). And really, not kidding, it was so good! Fish was fresh and tasty, it was so good! The 2 guys working were also super nice and helpful, and I like that kind of stuff. I'd definitely go back again. read more

Pokestuf - Yum! - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

A lovely spot for poke with a lot of customization available and so many options to choose from, whether it be components or sauces or add-ons! This place is great for a quick lunch or dinner. Breakdown: Food, 5/5: very rarely have I been to a poke place that not only offers soba noodles in addition to the standard rice and mixed greens options, but they also have so many toppings and add ons you can choose from! There are also a bunch of sauces (8 total when I went), and you can mix and match any combination of them! What blew me away though was the "premium add on" option (1st is free!) - Korean pickles are my go to, because they add a nice bit of saltiness to an otherwise pretty rich bowl; they also have other options like imitation crab meat and roasted jalapenos, depending on your flavor preferences. The fish is nice and fresh as well, though their choices are more limited than other places. Price, 5/5: for ~$11/bowl (pretty standard for a poke place), it's quite a lot of food. Usually I get one of these and split it over two meals, which makes it quite a worthwhile purchase, especially in hot weather. Service, 5/5: every time I have gone (3 times now and counting), the staff has always been friendly and awesome! They're very willing to walk you through options if you don't know what to get. Location, 5/5: again, downtown Alhambra, parking is easy. It's on a street corner and it's right next to a boba shop. What more could you want? Overall, I'm in love with this place and will always come back here for poke. Always. read more

Pokestuf - My choices: Soba Noodles, Ahi only, Thai Chili Lime, Cucumber, Onion, Masago, Korean Pickles, Pickled Ginger, Sesame Seeds - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

Came here looking for a poke place close to work. So I decided to give this place a try. One of the major draw backs here is that they only have 3 fish options that are included (ahi, salmon and albacore). The other protein options (spicy tuna, garlic shrimp, shrimp) are an additional price. Which to me aren't enough options, especially for that price. +$10 for a regular bowl and over $15 for a large bowl. Also I dont know if its an LA county thing but the scoops here are extremely tiny!!! I had a scoop of the ahi, salmon and albacore, and I could probably count all the pieces on 2 hands. It was definitely on the lighter side. Customer service was cool. The inside is nice. Large floor to ceiling windows to watch the business of life that is mainstreet. They have a soba (noodle) option as a base which is cool. Fish is nice and fresh. Overall though, it's not the best I've had but definitely not the worst either, but I wouldn't mind trying somewhere else either... read more

I really enjoyed the poke from here. Compared to other places, this spot doesn't have as many options for protein. There's only 3 options, but the quality is pretty good. My favorite was the salmon, it was very buttery. You get two choices for the size of the bowl. The carb options the standard white rice, brown rice, and salad. I opted for half salad and brown rice and was surprised at how much I enjoyed the brown rice. Usually brown rice at other places are hard and dry but the brown rice here was soft and fluffy. The topping selection isn't too big. There's a couple of free toppings and premium toppings, and every bowl comes with one free premium topping. I liked how the sauce was mixed with the fish, rice, and salad so every bite had flavor. I liked this spot but bowls here are more expensive than most other poke spots I've tried for the amount of options you get. read more

Pokestuf - Salmon, miso honey, and the works - Hawaiian Near Me - Alhambra, California

Sanitation: they seem to really keep their hands clean, constantly washing and changing gloves. Food: Typical poke stuff. Sauces is what makes a difference and the sauces were very typical but good. Nothing too different from any other places. So its decent and good. Prices: Seemed high for the portion. I was wondering if this was part of the pandemic inflation. Only reason I'm giving 3 vs 4 stars because for the price to portion ratio, I would imagine the serving was bigger. I had to get more food after. Service: very good. They were polite and seemed thoughtful in packaging. read more

My bf and I have Pokestuf about 2 times a month for nearly 2 years now. We were so relieved and happy they reopened. The poke bowl is delicious every time-- except for that one time when we asked for only salad as a base and didn't have rice at home to balance out all the flavors. ** HIGHLY RECOMMEND to get a base of half salad and half white rice together !! ** That's the best base to start with and I don't think you can go wrong building the rest of your bowl from there. My go-to sauce combo is lemongrass ponzu and miso honey. I was prompted to finally write a review because they wanted feedback on their new SUSHI rolls they're trying out (as in, I don't think they're an official menu item yet). I was so darn excited for this sushi and they did not disappoint. I had a sample of the Tiger Roll and was delighted! Every piece was pre-sauced with harmonious flavors and I could taste the fresh subtle sweetness of the shrimp on top as well. There was also a little salad on the side with what tasted like ranch but with a refreshing gingery burn to it! I savored every bite. read more

Been coming here for years and it never misses! The portion size is good (I always go for regular and it's more than enough). It's unique in that it offers soba noodles as a base. Everything I've tried was solid (salmon, tuna, yellowtail... spam musubi). I recommend this place as a healthy, quick lunch spot read more

I've been meaning to try this poke place for a while but I was never nearby during their hours of operation lol. It's solid, not bad, but ultimately did not wow me. I don't remember my exact order but I remember being impressed by the topping options. There are a ton of free ones and then you can pick one premium topping as well. Pokestuf offers soba noodles as a base option, which is cool. They also offer many unique sauce combos I haven't seen anywhere else, such as miso habanero (the one I got). I think the main thing that threw me off about my bowl was the ratio. I read several reviews that mention the small amount of fish, but I don't think that is quite the case. While it was true that I only got a couple pieces of fish, each piece was quite large, like easily 2-4x the size of normal poke cubes. However, in this case (as it often is), bigger does not in fact mean better. I like having a bit of fish in each bite, so I had to cut up my fish pieces before I could have a satisfying bite. Idk if the pokestuf staff will see this, but if you do please cut the fish a bit smaller, thanks! The quality of the fish was fine though. I got salmon and it was plump and shiny. I also got half brown rice half greens, and literally ended up with enough rice for a second meal after eating all of my toppings. Not that mad about it but genuinely have no idea where all that rice came from. Did it multiply?? Something else that I was a bit disappointed about was the sauce. I got miso habanero, but I don't think it added much flavor to my bowl overall. I ended up grabbing sriracha from my fridge. Oh also, as I'm writing this review I remembered that I had requested spicy Mayo on top but it was not included in my bowl. Sad I think I was between 2 and 3 stars but ultimately gave 3. The quality of the individual components (except that weak af miso habanero sauce) were all pretty good, but they just didn't combine together to become a great final product. I was unfortunately left pretty underwhelmed. read more

This place robbed me of my $29.00. I wanted to try a new Poke place since I wanted to try something different. I found this place on Yelp and saw that it had good reviews. Upon coming it's a small little place. They had pretty interesting options like the soba noodles so I wanted to give that a try. I noticed that their menu is a little weird. They had 3 sections which was included toppings, add on for free and premium toppings. I felt like the included toppings and add on for free topping should of been in one category since they gave you an option to choose it all if you wanted to. My order consisted of: -Regular Bowl: Soba Noodles, Ahi and Salmon, No Sauce, Cucumber, Fried Onions, Furikake, All of Add On, and Imitation Crab Meat as a one free premium -Regular Bowl: Mixed Greens, Ahi and Salmon, All Included Toppings, All Included Add Ons and Seaweed Salad as a one free premium -2 order of Spam Masubi ($2.50 Each) My total came out to be $29.00. The price of spam masubi was pretty high so I thought for the price it would be delicious. This place was different because I'm used to poke place letting me choose what I want like a Chipotle or Subway style but this all behind the counter wall and you can't see what they are doing. It took around less than 10 mins to get my order and I was excited to get my food and eat it at home. When I took my food out of the bag and opened the box I was shocked. I did not get any of my toppings that I ordered. Not a single one. I only got my soba noodles, ahi and salmon. I thought they might have separated it into a different box but I didn't. I was beyond frustrated and felt like I was cheated. I don't know what the heck they were doing but this is totally unacceptable. My girlfriend was missing half of her toppings too. Also they gave her so much salad that you can't even find the toppings. All the salad was smushed in there with little to no care. The spam masubi was not worth it either. The spam was so thin that I couldn't even find it. It was under that massive amount of rice. I wanted to go back and demand have them fix my order but it was out of my way to go back. Overall a lesson is to check your order before leaving. This place robbed me of my money and didn't come close to giving me what I ordered. I will not be returning here ever. read more

I was looking for some nearby poke restaurants and I saw poke stuff, so I went there to get poke. When I got there I ordered : white rice, shrimp, tuna, cucumber, Furikake, imitation crab, sesame seeds, and edamame. The sign had said shrimp instead of fish: 2$ and Garlic shrimp 3$, so I ordered regular shrimp , I had asked the lady if they had it she specifically said yes. When I checked my iPhone they charged 17.99$ instead of 16.00$ they had charged me 2 dollars more for garlic shrimp , so when I got my food I told the lady, she told me that they only had garlic shrimp, but they had said earlier that they had regular, she was being rude about. she called over the manger and they asked if they wanted them to remake it, I was really confused because they didn't have regular shrimp. So they gave me a refund, and I left. I don't recommend coming here unless you want to be charged more for something you didn't want. read more
