    UNDERRATED POKE SPOT!!! This place makes a delicious poke bowl! I got the small bowl with white rice and it comes with two scopes of protein. They are very generous with their scopes of protein and scopes of the sides. It's very good quality of fish and sides. It's a very filling bowl as well. I went on Saturday and it was not very busy, but there was only one worker so keep that in mind. I would definitely be back for another bowl! Great poke bowl spot!

    Came across this poke place while on the way to Newport for an appointment & was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the fish. When I arrived, there were no customers so I was skeptical but decided to give it a try anyways. The ambiance was clean and simple with minimal decor. They had plenty of seating inside and outside. Ordering was simple, they had step by step instructions on their menu. I opted for a small bowl with half salad and half white rice. The salad was nice and fresh, and the rice was hot & soft but not mushy. I chose the salmon and tuna for my protein choices which tasted quite fresh. I chose a mild spice level which was perfect for me because it didn't overwhelm me with spice. They offered plenty of toppings which was nice but the mango didn't taste fresh which was fine because it added a sweetness to the bowl. It did seem quite pricey for the portion of fish you get. My total came out to $17.72 for my small bowl but I enjoyed my meal regardless. If you're in the area and are looking to have poke then Poki Bowl is a good place to try out.

    Good bowl I got here. Nice they offer no extra cost on avocado. Love the service but fairly slow to get. Simple outlook though honestly.

    Small poke bowl with 2 proteins (ahi tuna & yellowfish) on a bed of half brown rice/half chips.... and LOTS of toppings!

    My boyfriend & I love poke and we're eager to try this place. I appreciate how the owners focus on quality - from their choice of fish to the types of containers & chopsticks. I was delighted they offer chips as a base & mango as one of their toppings. I opted half brown rice & half chips (to try something new). The small was enough to satisfy my hunger. I liked the Mido dressing and eel sauce combo on top of my concoction - as it balanced sweet & savory. My boyfriend really liked how the spicy tuna came in chunks (instead of minced). The staff is friendly and the place is very clean. We're coming back again!

    All mine!!!!

    Grand Opening today (Saturday 05/25) & 1st Visit to any Poki Bowl. The fish was good along with the selection of sides to add. I actually had a bone in one of the albacore pieces, so I know it was fresh. The process in making the Poki Bowl was really simple, easy, tasty, & delicious. The service was great and ppl are smiling all the time. Clean and roomy. Pricing today $17.95 for 3 scoops of protein: Spicy Tuna, Tuna, & Albacore (okay so I love tuna any way it's made). What's astonishing was the priced add-ons: edamame & seaweed salad $1.25 .... SOOO basically I paid almost $20 for a basic Poki Bowl. ....... Menu on Yelp says $18.95. ..... Sorry to say, there are many pokie bowl establishments charging much less than & do not charge extra for either edamame OR seaweed salad. Great pokie bowl? For me, I've had better. Price competitive? A definite NO! Fresh choices? OH yeah! Recommend trying at least once and you be the judge. Happy Poki Bowl & Fight On!!!

The salmon was buttery and soft, while the tuna was flavorful. Honestly don't know which one I liked more, they were both delicious. 'Bear Flag Taco': this tasted really fresh and light, felt like I could have multiple! 'Pineapple Margarita': I believe this was their special drink of the day, and it was only around $12! Personally thought it was strong, so it's such a good deal! Verdict: i didn't have high expectations, but everything I tried was actually really yummy!

Oh and then you can go shopping at South Coast because you just so happen to be at a venue that's nicer than Lido anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Unless you're already down in Balboa or Lifo area, then you may as well just go to wahoos fish tacos. It's the same price for the outer reef burrito and the quality is about the same imo. The lemon butter burrito catch of the day missed the mark. If you go during the day it isn't crazy busy though which was good ig

    Went to Poke District yesterday since I was already in the plaza, and as usual, my food was great…read moreand left me feeling super satisfied! What I love most about Poke District is the quality of everything. From the poke to the rice, everything is consistently fresh without being overly expensive. I always get the build-your-own bowl with salmon, white rice and the Hot Lava flavor. One thing I really like is that they mix the flavor directly into the poke rather than simply drizzling the sauce on top, which is a major plus for me. They're also super accommodating with modifications. I don't really like seaweed salad, so I always ask for it to be replaced with an extra scoop of crab meat instead! I've also seen some reviews complaining about the kiosk and people not liking it. The kiosk is simply an additional option, so if you don't want to use it, you don't have to. I honestly didn't even notice it at first and just ordered my meal with one of the staff members as usual. Poke District is always super quick, never taking more than five minutes to prepare my bowl. They also make sure your bowl is prepared exactly how you want it before packing it up, which I really appreciate. I'll definitely be back and highly recommend Poke District to anyone looking for a higher-quality poke spot in the area!

Plenty of tables available for dine in and restroom is available if needed. I ended up ordering through the kiosk and got the build your own with salmon, white rice, and original flavor. I like how it comes with imitation crab meat, cucumbers, salad, and a generous portion of furikake on top. The salmon is pretty fresh-- better than other poke spots in OC but can't compare to Hawaiian Fresh Seafood in San Diego and of course the poke in Hawaii. Would come back if in the area and do recommend!

The place was buzzin on Saturday afternoon which I immediately took as a good sign. It was an extremely hot day (cue Cali heat wave) and standing inside the restaurant didn't help. No AC and hot open kitchen made for a sweaty time. Ordered an Ai Pono Poke bowl and Roots plate to-go. Our total was $38 between the two items. Got home in about 25 mins and immediately dug in. For a $16 poke bowl, I guess I was expecting a bit more fish. Also, the rice had a sour ish taste (according to me). The Roots plate quantity was solid but the short rib was very chewy. Definitely a preference thing but chewy short rib is not my jam. The flavors were good though. There wasn't much of a service aspect to our experience cause we took our meal to go. Unfortunately was a bit disappointed as the food didn't hit the mark but very open to trying again in the future.
