    I really like a poke place that has pre-designed curated bowl options for you, so you don't have to stand there at the counter pointing and going " some of that, some of that!" you could still do that here, but I ordered a bowl and the only choice I had to make was the base, I picked leafy greens for a light lunch. I will be back!

    Great price although I have had better at other places. Great service but I wish it was mixed with more sauce (I could totally ask for more sauce) but this was my first time here. The quality of the ingredients were also nice and lots of options

    My +1 and I stopped here for a quick lunch after visiting the nearby Barnes and Noble. It wasn't hard to find, but we had to park around the back and walk around. Inside, the place was spartan and dim, and there was only one person inside who was happy to greet us. She explained what our options were and we both ordered the big bowls with 5 proteins. I picked tuna, spicy tuna, albacore, salmon, and spicy salmon. My +1 opted for scallops instead of the spicy salmon. They also offer cooked octopus and shrimp. They also had all the standard toppings, likes imitation crab meat, edamame, seaweed salad, etc. and a few different sauces. I tried the house sauce. I will say that I was a bit disappointed by both the quality and quantity. The proteins were a little skimpy and so were the toppings. My +1 mentioned that random pieces of fish were cooked, and they got her sauce wrong. Overall, it was edible but I've had much better elsewhere.

    It was a Poli place. 11:30 am on a Tuesday, not much really going on. The place was empty with two staff members. Both of them were very nice, big smiles and helpful. This is long second time eating Poki ever, so they had to walk me through the ordering process and the different elements for me to create my own Poki bowl. Nice experience overall. My bowl was good, full of flavor and very tasteful, I had sushi rice (Sticky rice), shrimp, salmon , tuna, cucumbers, cilantro, avocados, crunchy garlic and soy sauce. I think that was all. Will definitely try it again if I am in the area. It's right off the 5 south, on Alicia Parkway!

    After passing this place many times my second half and I finally strolled in here and gave it a shot. A bit more complicated than our usual spot, they offer build your own combos as well as premade selections. We opted to build our own burrito (me) and bowl (him). A few positives: There are more veggies available to add, making for a more filling and healthier meal. The veggies were fresh There were more options for mix ins than the usual spot, including edamame etc. Also more options for toppings, such as dried onion and garlic. Employee was nice and helpful A few negatives: Avocado costs extra Fish was mushy. Didn't care for the sauce, I tried the original poki cat sauce. Also had a taste of his grapefruit sauce, didn't stand out in any way. Will stick with the usual spot

    Came here for lunch, and service was quick. Nothing super unique about the poke here. They had the standard fish options and standard toppings. The smallest bowl comes with 3 scoops of protein for ~$13. The fish chunks were a good size, and their traditional sauce was pretty good. Overall size was a good portion for lunch. I'm not sure which topping it was, but something was a little too hard/crunchy (maybe it was because there were too many sesame seeds). Overall, a good place to get a solid poke bowl.

    Catering options here are incredible!! We recently ordered dinner for a party of 15 adults and I…read morecould not have been more delighted with the decision to order from Mendocino Farms. We had 22 half sandwiches, 1 large pesto pasta salad, and 1 large avocado quinoa ensalada (life changing!), then on the morning of, I woke up worried it wasn't enough food so I called as soon as they opened to see if it was possible to add an order of the cocktail caprese sandwiches. Jennifer took my call and cheerfully made it happen. Phew! Our friends RAVED about the food the entire night and a couple even texted later about how good everything was. I thought the default sandwich variety in the ordering portal was very good, though I adjusted to have two extra veggie sandwiches. I also appreciated how they were very well-labeled within the boxes. The caprese cocktail sandwiches didn't have enough filling ratio for the thickness of the bun - it was a mouthful of bread with a little bit of cheese and tomato. They were the only thing that weren't really a hit, but everything else was phenomenally good! The quantity of the large size sides were incredible - our friends were eating from them all night, going back for seconds and thirds, and we still had lots of leftovers for the next day.

    The Baja Green Goddess Salad was amazing! I had their Thai Mango Salad last time in a vegetarian…read moreversion, and that already left a flavorful impression. This one somehow topped it, and I continue to be impressed. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, with an abundance of savory flavors that made it effortless to finish every bite- or in this case, every bit from the takeout bowl. Paired with an unsweetened passion fruit black tea, it made for what I'd consider the perfect lunch. It felt light yet satisfying, never heavy on the palate, and I was able to get right back to work without the usual post-meal sluggishness. A super solid healthy lunch choice. I'm a fan!

The service could've been a little more friendly. The young guy working at the register didn't say much and didn't seem to really promote the menu, even after I told him it was my first time there. I was really excited to try the food here with my friend. I was in the mood for whole pieces of chicken and I'm so glad I chose the half chicken plate. The plate comes with two sides and there were a few options to choose from. I selected a side salad and roasted lemon garlic potatoes. I was trying to be a little more healthy. Otherwise, I probably would've chosen the french fries. The dressing on the salad was really good and all of the ingredients were fresh. I really liked the pickled red onions that came with the salad. The potatoes were alright. The plate also comes with a large soft pita. And the garlic sauce was just right with everything . The star of the show was the juicy and flavorful chicken.I enjoyed this lunch so much. I can't wait to come back!
