My family and I periodically stop by here as it's close to where we live, and we've never had a bad experience. We've eaten in, and gotten takeout. During the warmer months, they also have outdoor seating. Everything we've had is always fresh, and they have a good variety of sides, toppings, sauce, and proteins, including fish, tofu, and lobster surimi. My go-to has been a salmon make your own poke bowl with a furikake mac salad, and it always hits the spot! My mom is also a fan of the Huli huli chicken plate and she said the chicken is very tender and flavorful. The service is pretty basic, you go to a bar-like area and pick out your toppings/protein. No complaints about the service, they've always been available to help out with whatever I needed. We will continue to come back! read more

Pokeworks - Poke Your Way - Lightly Seared Salmon - Poke Near Me - fresh meadows, New York

Food is great when prepared properly. Customer service is atrocious. Ordered twice today and both times had issues. First I ordered through their website, and the total I was displayed pre checkout was $25 cheaper than what was actually charged to my card. When I called they refused to honor the price I was initially displayed and I had them cancel the order. Then I ordered again from uber eats. I ordered a poke bowl your way with custom ingredients, and specifically noted I had a cucumber allergy. What I received had more cucumber than fish and unfortunately didn't notice until after taking a bite. I called the store hoping to get a replacement order, and was told by the manager Louis that it's not their problem and to contact uber. I told him I could feel my throat getting itchy as I was talking and his only response was "can I help you with anything else?" As someone who works in the service industry I am shocked with how dismissive the service was. I was treated like an order number, and not as a human suffering a medical event from their negligence read more

The staff was super awesome. Shout out them! The place was brick, so bring a jacket cause it's cold. The food was not well executed. The bombs were delicious, not sure if it's cause they just came out, but they were really good. The Musubi was insanely bland and just weird. I make it at home and I eat it all the time it needs work. I eat a fair share of sushi and uncooked fish, there was something slimy about this one. The burrito is a really awesome concept but mine came out slimy as heck, I felt like I was eating an actual fish. We normally put down plates of food but I only made it to the halfway on this one. The owners need to do something about the recipes. The locals probably aren't familiar with the dishes they are eating but this could be much better. read more

The music is a bit loud, so make sure to speak up when ordering. They have a few tables and counter seating, as well as outdoor table seating. There is a lot of foot traffic in and out but I haven't had a trouble scoring a table. The Huli Huli Chicken (Plate) is super tender and well saiced. I enjoyed the addition of furikake in the Mac Salad! It was definitely my favorite part of the plate. The Side Salad is fresh with a light dressing. I love that the rice (white or brown) soaks up the Teriyaki sauce. Lots of flavors in each portion of the dish. The Lightly Sweetened Jasmine Green Tea is indeed lightly sweetened. It has decent Jasmine flavor. Overall, a nice spot to hit for a flavorful meal by the AMC Theater and shopping center. It can get pricey depending on what you order, but it generally seems good quality and fresh. read more

We'd been craving for Poke bowl and this is the closest to us with a fair diner reviews. It maybe under a chain but the stars in the reviews engaged us to drive here and tried. The place has this vibes that brings a good feeling to us the moment we walked in. Clean. Neat. Friendly staff. I have always ordered a ready bowl as I believe they have given a lot of thought about each meal on the board. I trust them that all ingredients in the bowl I picked complement each other. I was right! From carbs down to protein, sauces , veggies and toppings taste great as one whole thing. The Hawaiian soda is a good thing to get for a package experience. I'd never had the dole whip ice cream for a long time and it satisfied my cravings for a Hawaiian dessert. I can't help myself not to take home samples of their spam musubi and can't help not to eat right away when I get home . Definitely coming back to this place in order to try their other selections in the menu board. A recommended place. read more

This is still the only poke place I visit in Queens, as their quality is consistent and everything looks fresh and clean. They started offering hot plates / bowls as well which is great for families with younger kids. I got the chicken plate for my kid, and it's good. I wish the macaroni salad wasn't spicy though, my kid wouldn't eat it. It would also be good if the salad can be replaced with something else from the poke side selections (eg edamame, corn). read more

Pokeworks - Kind of new offering: Hawaiian chicken plate (chicken and rice served hot) - Poke Near Me - fresh meadows, New York

I seriously have an issue with this place. I used my ClassPass to order a Hawaiian poke bowl. all of the ingredients are listed. They are very strict and will only give you what is listed exactly on the ClassPass. If you were in there ordering a bowl without ClassPass, you could add all kinds of stuff without an extra charge. I understand that it's ClassPass and they want to be very strict with just the listed ingredients. However, on the ingredients listed it says that you're supposed to get seasonal crunch. I enjoy crunchy stuff in my Poké bowl. The guy refused to give it to me after I pointed it out. he said it it only comes with sesame seeds. I showed him the list of ingredients on the ClassPass. Clearly there were sesame seeds and then after that, it stated "seasonal crunch." I think it's a pretty crappy policy that you can't get what everybody else gets when they order a Poké bowl. Having said that, I respect it. So they should respect their own policy to give you all the ingredients that are listed. shame on this place. read more

A young woman in PokeWorks uniform wanted to sit where I was sitting and was mad that I was already seated. She was angry that I refused to get up. Unless staff is at a table, a customer can sit there. The table is right next to a wall socket and she wanted to charge her phone. Music is nice. She yelled at me when I accidentally step on her charger then started to lecture me about sitting there. Her bag wasn't on the table. It was on a bench between two tables. You can't claim to tables and then get mad if someone choose one. read more

Pokeworks is my favorite poke place! I usually get the large bowl with 3 proteins and I usually get their tuna, salmon, and spicy salmon. I really each one of them! They also have a decent selection of options you can add to your bowl. For my sauce selection, I usually get their ponzu fresh. read more

Came on a weeknight to try a Poke bowl. Two proteins, unlimited add ins, sauces to top off for $17 after taxes. There were a few people ahead of me but the line moved at a good pace. I got a small amount of white rice, spicy tuna, spicy salmon, sliced onions, corn, edamame, shredded nori, fresh seaweed, salad mix, kale, green onions, garlic chips, onion chips, little sriracha aoli sauce, little cilantro sauce, chili crisps, Thai chili, mango, cucumber, cabbage, Serrano pepper. They mixed everything except for the rice, putting the mixed food on top of the rice. Good flavor, fresh. Definitely will return. read more

This particular business place has ample parking which is very convenient for costumers. They keep their place spotless, has a casual atmosphere but I have noticed that a lot of their costumers prefer their orders to-go. What I specially like with the food that they offer is fresh, costumizable, delicious, healthy and unique toppings/ingredients/sauce. They give a fair amount of ordered food when you order a bowl of poke. The food is delicious, flavorful, has a vibrant taste of the mixed ingredients and sauce. Prices are a tad higher than expected. I like that they incorporate fish like salmon or tuna in their poke bowl which is healthy. They also offer vegan option which is a plus for me. Their house made sauces are incredible, examples are the Pokeworks classic, Umami shoyu and Sriracha aioli. The staff are very nice warm, provides quick and fast service and they take their time to explain on what they offer. They can try to improve on giving a more generous amount on their food bowls. Or probably I was just thinking that it was not of sufficient amount because it taste really good. At the time that I came here they were offering a discount for all healthcare workers, just have to show your ID... lucky me . read more

My boss was ordering from here for the team for lunch so I had to choose something. I was a little nervous as I've never had any Poke before; but relieved when I saw there were cooked items as well. I ordered the Charred Terriyaki Salmon Plate. I'm really particular about my fish not tasting too fishy. I really like the flavor of the salmon. It has a almost grilled kind of flavor to it along with the teriyaki sauce, which was just a hint of sauce, but not drowning the fish. It was great combination with the white rice, The salad and the avocado. There was a small portion of a macaroni salad as well, which had a nice flavor. I was very satisfied with this dish and would order the same exact thing again. Plus the portion was a great size which filled me up, but was not overwhelming. Definitely recommend. read more

The poke bowl is delicious! This is my go to pokeworks. I usually order a 3 protein poke bowl to share with my girlfriend and it never disappoints. Somehow sharing always taste better than if I were to get a small order for myself. We usually get salmon, shrimp, spicy salmon, edamame, surumi salad, pineapple, mandarin orange, furikake flakes, garlic crisp, cucumber, hijiki seaweed, and Sriracha aioli sauce. This mixture is great balance of savory, sweet, with a bit of spicy! Even though we share, we often never finish. I have also tried the garlic spam masubi before which is also delicious. This time I decided to try one of their new items, the lobster dynamite poke bomb and my only gripe is that it was not fresh and you can definitely tell. I didn't realize they took it from the fridge off to the side because I probably would have not gotten it otherwise. The color of the lobster was a bit faded and the sauce was dried out a little. Regardless it was still enjoyable to eat. I do want to try the fresh salmon variant next time. read more

Quality of food is good with appropriate portions. Fresh ingredients with well seasoned tuna and salmon that I usually order. Service however seems to be lacking when it comes to Online pickup. I have ordered at least three times ahead on the app and the order has never been ready at the expected time. I've waited on average about an extra 15 mins in person each time for pickup. Almost seems like they try to clean up the in person line first putting aside online orders till after. Other than that, the food is good. read more

Really good poke bowls with a ton of different toppings and proteins that include not just raw fish but also torched salmon, chicken, and shrimp. Everything was very fresh and filling.

I always visit this location for quick eats before the theater! I had the best spicy salmon bowl with OG Sauce, onions, ginger, corn, and crunchy onion. Literally mouth watering and the salmon melted in the mouth(aka fresh fish)The drinks I ordered weren't the best in my friend's opinion but I do appreciate the low sugar! The service was nice and the shop is small and cute! I didn't take pictures since I was hangry next time! read more

Really great place to try! Not only was it delicious, it boosted me up fast. Service is quick!

I got a large poke bowl, it was $17.50, that's pretty expensive but I got tuna and two portions of salmon and asked for it torched. The service was fast, there were a couple of workers there and all of them were efficient. The classic poke sauce is pretty good, it's my go to sauce so I recommend it. I will be coming back to try the spicy salmon! read more

This spot is right next to my gym so I had always been enticed by it and finally popped in. I don't LOVE poke and was expecting this place to be a one and done but I was truly blown away. For one, I have never seen a poke place offering torched poke, which was an absolute game changer. The torched salmon was excellent. I regret getting lobster surimi as my second protein because I could've just gotten the free surimi later down the line and should have gotten tuna. Anyway, the brown rice was so nicely cooked. What really surprised me pleasantly were the sauces, which weren't ones I was so used to for poke. Ultimately went with ponzu soy (my go-to) and a Himalayan salt mix that included chili peppers. The rest of the toppings were pretty standard. The freshness of everything was really welcomed and it was absolutely the best poke I've ever had. It's pricy but poke always is (the 2 topping with tax probably around $17). The place is a production line with like 8 employees (though a little bit stalled/slow for whatever reason). I walked in totally expecting to order a noodle substitute for the rice (some places have kale noodles, etc.) but the only option here was ramen noodles which I wasn't interested in. I will definitely be back for more torched poke. read more

My son got very sick after eating from that place - he was vomiting non stop for 12 hours straight and suffered from diarrhea.

It was my first time here - the staff was patient and helpful. I created my own bowl with salad, two proteins ... spicy tuna and chicken- they had many options for mix ins and toppings. I thought it was cool that they torch some of the raw proteins. Overall my poke bowl was fresh and delicious. However, I felt that my bowl was small for $17.50. read more

Was craving some poke and chanced upon this spot after a movie. Great vibes and spacious area, with seating both inside and out. Similar to other assembly-line-esque food spots, the proteins, toppings, and sauces are all in containers behind the counter, and I think the taste of the food really depends on what you put together. They have preset bowls as well for those who are indecisive. Portions are sizable and filling, and the fish tasted really fresh. Great place to grab a bite, and will be back to try the dole whip soft serve! read more

Finally tried this spot and we were not disappointed. We loved their bubble teas and their fresh fish poke bowls. I tried a tuna poke bowl and got it torched. I think this was my favorite bowl and I love that they have the option to do that. They also had a new lobster bowl which was incredible too! We got all different toppings and bases like noodles, rice, and lettuce. Can't wait to stop by again and try a different build your own bowl.

Nothing different compared to other Pokeworks I've had. My friends and I came here for a quick lunch this last Friday after I landed at LGA. It's pretty close to my friend's place in Queens and in general, a great option for something light, healthy, and delicious! The standard two protein option came with a variety of toppings. I enjoyed their salmon and spicy salmon a lot! My portion was quite full after I customized my poke bowl. I really liked their imitation crab salad and crispy garlic. There are some options that you need to pay extra for, such as masago, avocado, etc. At the end, the total after tax was over $16. It's not a cheap fast-casual option, but definitely one of the healthiest and highly delicious option. read more

Pokeworks is a solid chain of reliable poke bowls. I'm glad that one has opened up within UberEats distance (for a lack of better terms) from my workplace. The prices are affordable and the quality of the poke is great. Do be wary of how spicy the wasabi is, yes it's wasabi but be careful to mix it all in vs taking a bite and having it be all wasabi. I have yet to try the torched poke (not sure how the texture would taste) but I will eventually. A decent amount of poke is given as well and I'll continue to try their bowls. read more

Probably one of the best tasting foods I ever tried. I have no experience with Poke for context, so not the best judge to be fair. Why only three stars? Namely the price.

I visited the Pokeworks Fresh Meadows location (61-24 190th St) around 5:30 PM and had an extremely uncomfortable experience with the supervisor, Alex (or Alexandria), and her team. From the moment I walked in, Alex gave me a cold, hostile stare. I politely asked if the Huli Huli chicken could be torched--even though it's not standard--and she immediately cut me off with attitude, saying in a power-tripping tone, "I'm not going to authorize that." It was unnecessary and dismissive. I let it go and switched to shrimp--which is supposed to be torched--and asked that it be done before the sauce. She made an issue out of that too. One employee (Asian girl, name unknown) walked away mid-order saying, "I'm not going to deal with this," even though I remained calm and respectful the whole time. Alex then told the staff not to finish my order. I stood there ignored while my shrimp sat on the counter untouched. When I asked for Alex's name, she ignored me and tried to give a fake one until I saw her name tag. Finally, she told Bri (BRI) to finish the bowl. Bri wasn't directly rude but acted petty--burning the shrimp to a crisp, dumping excess crunch, and charging extra for green onions, which has never happened before. I paid and left with a meal I didn't enjoy and a really bad feeling. This isn't the first time Alex has acted like this--she's consistently rude and seems to enjoy using her role to be difficult. Meanwhile, the male supervisor, Steve, has always been professional and respectful. The team acted like a clique, backing each other while treating a polite customer like a problem. Something needs to be done about the way this location is run. read more
