    Poke Bowl - Regular (2 Proteins)
    Daryn B.

    Local poke place I tried for lunch. Had the bowl, white rice, spicy tuna and salmon. Plenty of sauces and toppings to add to make it meet your taste desire. I felt like maybe they weee a little short on the variety of proteins. I believe one was chicken (not sure about trying that). Had they offered other seafood styles maybe I would have changed it up but these two are my standard go-to for poke. Clean facility. Friendly service and ok pricing. Hawaiian Sun canned drinks are available for a little more of the Hawaiian flavor. Definitely would consider when back in the area.

    Finally! We are so LATE to the game around here. Anyway, welcome to the neighborhood! It's great to have real poké as an option. A minimalist approach to the interior. Clean, communal tables. Gets loud though. Served line style (think chipotle) keeping it as hygienic as possible. So many options & choices & add ins & sauces so the combinations are endless. But to the overwhelmed, thankfully there are combo suggestions. I don't eat raw fish, so the tofu or cooked chicken is appreciated. Eat in or take out.

    2 protein with every free topping available. Excellent flavor!

    Really friendly service and my on line order was fulfilled in time. Food was fresh and delicious. Beware, the Thai chili IS spicy lol. I added it on thinking I wanted the heat but I ended up picking them all out. Good thing they only put about a dozen...

    Spicy ahi bowl- after I killed it!

    I had heard about Pokeworks. I figured I would try it for lunch today. It was easy parking and close to home so an easy option. I LOVED it. I had the ahi spicy tuna bowl and added avocado! I could eat this every day for the rest of my life. Very fresh and just the right size. I will be back for take out! If you want me to dine in at dinner you may need to add a bar! :) So good! Thank you!! I'm sorry but not much left in my pic!

    I've been to Pokeworks many times and their fish is very consistently fresh and tasty. I normally don't see the purpose in reviewing a chain restaurant but the experience that you get here, in this suburban Connecticut location, is way different from the experience I've had in in NYC locations. Customer service is great and I've always been greeted with a smile. There's also a lot more space to sit here and I've always been able to find a seat when needed. It's never super crowded and even when the line is long, it moves very quickly. In general, poke is pretty pricey but I think that if you get the fish, it's completely worth it. White rice is definitely the best with your poke bowl (in my opinion) but I usually get the kale noodles because they're also yummy and make me feel a little better about myself. They're super nice here about trying stuff before committing to it so I recommend trying some sauces before deciding which one to get. The sauce makes a really big difference on the overall taste of the bowl. I recommend Sriracha Aioli!

    Another great place to go to! Went to this place after a volleyball tournament and was hungry for something light but filling. The yuzu ponzu was healthy and taste great.

    Bowl was delicious -I just wish it was a little colder when it was delivered. I can truly say this is the best Poké in the Hamden area

    Used to wait in line at their first NYC spot on 37th street and so glad we found it in Wilton. Order from their own app to get the perks.

    Everything was nice and fresh. We ordered fairly straightforward bowls with sushi rice. Good portions. Would definitely order here again.

In addition to the regular poke bowls, the Westport Pokeworks also featured several cooked options. We enjoyed the char teriyaki salmon plate but the favorites are always the tuna poke bowls. We are not embarrassed to admit that our custom bowls are filled with almost every topping they generously offer. It's just so good. Even our mom, who initially didn't want to go for the poke version, ended up very happy to share our entrees once she sampled them. The only thing I missed at this location where the kale noodles that another offers. Just because they caught our eye (as they are supposed to do) at the register, we tried both cookies as well as the brownie on offer. They were as one would expect from industrialized baked goods and we would skip them next time. The customer service was very friendly and the parking is super easy.

I personally don't like this business model, I feel it makes the dining experience robotic and impersonal, reminiscent of a high school or prison cafeteria line. But I can't argue, the food is good and if you like poke, it's a good choice for a quick meal. Especially good for take-away or delivery.

What it does lack, however, is a standalone boba shop. While Asahi is, first and foremost, a poke restaurant, it does offer a selection of boba teas and slushies. The weather had just turned from dreary cold to summery hot, so I was craving my favorite Asian drink. After some hand-wringing (I couldn't decide which one to get), I finally settled on an iced strawberry tea with milk foam. I wasn't confident in my order, but all my anxieties allayed at first sip. It was delicious! The boba was soft, the strawberry flavors came through strongly without tasting artificial, and the milk foam added a complex layer of creaminess and saltiness that elevated the drink altogether. Even my husband, who's not much of a boba drinker, thought it was great (and kept stealing sips). If you're in Beacon and you're suddenly hit with a hankering for boba, try Asahi.
