Still one of the best 'fast food' Poki places I've been to. Top notch service too - they went the extra mile with our order - tip them well! Fish is excellent at this location. Love the seaweed salad - the rice, the quinoa, all the fresh veggie choices - just excellent all around!! And if you get there early, you can grab a seat outside and people-watch. read more

$18 now for a regular, still the same great taste but definitely increased in price. Worth having every once in a while. You still get the most bang for your buck here in terms of items you can get which makes it worth it. Lots of options to choose from, if you enjoy saucy sushi rolls, this will be a hit! Service was great, I was confused with ordering, they will let you know when it's your time to add stuff. Very clean inside with indoor seating. If you are looking for something light to eat, this is it! read more

So delicious! I got a regular size (3 scoops of fish) with salmon, white rice, original poki sauce and spicy mayo, and a bunch of the toppings. I love how their avocado and seaweed salad are free - usually these are always extra at other poke spots. Their bowls are so simple, yet so delicious and fresh. Would 100% get again! read more

I enjoyed the small bowl with 2 scoops of shrimp. I loved being able to use brown rice and salad for the base. The generous variety of toppings, including avocado made for a tasty and nutritious dinner! read more

Let me just say--this is hands down the best rice ball I've ever had. I got the Cali Mix, which has tuna, salmon, and imitation crab. It was only $3.95, and I originally got it because I'm on a light diet. I could've gone with a bowl, but I decided to keep it simple and go with the rice ball. The flavor blew me away. Everything tasted super fresh, and the mix of proteins was perfect. I ended up going back and getting a second one right after. I also tried it with the fire poke sauce, which had a nice kick and a hint of ginger--so good. The customer service was great too. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this place. Five stars, no question. Place is nice and clean. It is a little bit tough getting parking on the weekends, but totally were trying. read more

Recently got into poke, and honestly, there's no turning back. I've been to this location a few times now, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I've even stayed to get some work done in the restaurant, which has a chill vibe. I usually go with the large bowl (4 scoops): 2 scoops of salmon, 1 tuna, and 1 Cali mix, then load it up with my favorite toppings. While I've had better poke elsewhere in San Diego, for a chain spot, this place definitely gets the job done. read more

Poki One N Half - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

I've been traveling around San Diego recently and am always in the mood for some poke, so I decided to try Poki One N Half. There's few poke places that just hit the spot, but it was THAT good. The girl who took my order was very nice; she let me take my time choosing! They have a good variety of proteins (what other place has scallops!!!!??!). The toppings were also very robust. I got a regular bowl with salmon, spicy tuna, and scallops and it was SO delicious. I'm out of the country now, but I'm still craving it. It might just be my first meal when I get back. The location was a little small and parking was hard to find, as you have to street park, but I think it's absolutely worth it. If you're considering poke for lunch, I recommend here! There's a bit of outside seating and indoor seating. If I had the time, I would've sat outside and just people watched. It's really pretty in that area and close to a lot of cute shops. read more

Came in right after our flight landed in SD and was so glad we got this. Felt like eating something light and not greasy and this hit the spot! The interior is very casual and we saw lots of people coming for pickup. We each got a bowl with three scoops and we were stuffed. The team was friendly and service was quick. Super fresh and lots of veggies with unlimited toppings! read more

Been here a couple times and it could get busy. I feel like there short staff sometimes but they make it work. With the influx of ordering online and helping out customers. The salmon is my usually go to and it doesn't disappoint. All the sauces are pretty good and I can't complain on the style of poke bowl. The spicy mayo, fire and OG are my main sauces. I will keep coming here. The portions are off the charts here they don't skimp out on the proteins. Shout out to the workers there for hooking me up with a fat bowl!!! read more

My go to poke! Fish is very fresh. A lot of options for toppings. Is it authentic Hawaiian poke? No. But that's not why you come here. I can't comment on service because I've had friends pick it up for me both times I've had it, but from reading other reviews and hearing from other people the service is great! Small bowl has plenty of food and is very filling. This is a great healthy lunch and I will keep coming back.

Poki One N Half - a. Small Bowl with salmon - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

Stopped in for a quick lunch because I was craving poke. There was one person working who seemed to manage the small line that just went through and the orders online that were coming in. I ordered a small bowl with salmon, and was alarmed when the total cost came to $17 after tax. As I understand it, the amount of fix ins are the same between a small, medium, and large bowl, but the amount of scoops of fish is different. I wish this spot had a small with bowl with less fix ins that you can buy for less money, between $10-$12 seems reasonable. The amount of food I got for a small bowl was a ton and was more than I wanted, but had pretty good flavor. For the amount of sides and rice you get, the ratio of fish seems very small, so I'd check out this spot if you want less poke and more sides with your meal. Other than the food, the place itself was extremely loud. I wanted to eat it there, but had to eat it outside because it was just so loud. read more

Poki one N half, definitely my go to spot for Poke since I think you get the most bang for your buck and they don't charge for the avocado!

Good poke place. I have become somewhat of a regular. Not bad for a chain poke place. Not that many protein options, they keep it short and sweet with salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, and a few others. Very generous portion sizes when it comes to the veggies. The staff is very nice and helpful as well. Never too busy either. Def recommend if you just need a quick bite. read more

Poki One N Half - Two large bowls and Rice Ball - Cali Mix - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

Whoa! Poki one N Half you are a total number 1! Came inside and was greeted right away by the friendly staff. Clean and good amount of seating. Fine in or take out option. Loved the options to choose from and was shocked no extra cost for avocado lol. Kid friendly with a menu of their own and miso soup option as a side or option too. My kiddo approved the octopus and imitation crab with salmon salad base. She added avocado, white and green onion and mild sauce. I went for the spicy tuna, scallops, and imitation crab. I did white rice as my base and added on avocado, seaweed salad, garlic crunch, seasoned seeds, spicy sauce, green onion and white onion with masago eggs. Delicious and definitely a great leading competitor in the Poki world! Also added in a ice cream macaron. Staff explained the flavors to the little one which was kind and awesome! read more

For those that's never been here, it's basically a Chipotle/Subway version of poke. You start with your base and you got down the assembly line until you pay. No extra charge on toppings, which is nice. Is this the best poke ever, no, but I do appreciate all the different toppings and they do not charge you extra if you ask for extra toppings like seaweed salad. Is it the best quality fish in the world, no, however this place is so busy that I'm positive that they do get fresh fish on the daily. I've always got good service here, so perhaps some of these other reviews are a bit sensitive. Also, this place is usually always busy, so perhaps they just want you to get your bowl and so they can serve the next 20 people in line! Parking is difficult due to the location, but does not affect the rating. Just know that's the case when coming to this location. read more

Fresh and excellent food highly recommended if you're in San Diego, the wasabi was just right not too spicy five stars

The staff is always so friendly, the poke bowls are the best I've ever had and I love their spicy mayo so much I always get extra!

Stopped in for dinner with my partner. We were promptly greeted by the staff and they were all very friendly and helpful as we built our bowls, which we really appreciated! We got a small and a regular bowl. Both were portioned really well! All of the ingredients and toppings were fresh, and they even offered us extra sauce to add to our bowls later since we were taking them to go! We were pleasantly surprised to see that chickpeas were offered, since my partner is vegetarian and usually only has tofu as an option. We were very content with our bowls, as they were delicious, and the extra sauce was a nice touch. Highly recommend this spot if you are in the North Park area! Only downside is that you may have to drive around the block a couple times to find parking, but otherwise, great experience that is well worth it! read more

Pretty solid poke bowl, but very costly ($18). Service is pretty slow. Some of the toppings weren't as fresh as they should be (browning avocados and canned pineapple). You do get unlimited toppings and a choice of brown, white rice, mixed greens, or quinoa (extra charge). Good for take out. read more

Poki One N Half - Regular salad bowl - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

I'm a huge fan of poke and wanted to try getting it completely vegetarian this time - I was so pleasantly surprised! Food: Ordered a small bowl that was plenty for one person. I got one scoop of regular tofu and one scoop spicy tofu. I got tons of toppings and I was skeptical how it would delivered since this was an uber eats order but everything came out perfectly! The food was fresh and nothing was missing. Service: fast and on time. The order was made precisely as requested without errors. I will definitely be back to try more of their poke options in the future! This is probably my new go-to spot for poke in San Diego right now. read more

I tired Poki about three or so years ago and was blow away. The Poki bowl was yummy and I have been eating there on a regular basics even through Covid (when guidelines and safety measure where in place). On this visit I was totally disappointed they have changed their menu. They have cut back on some of the selection and raised the prices of their poki bowls. This was so disappointing because I would drive a nice distance just to purchase their poki because of the great price and awesome selection. As it stands now, I won't feel motivated to visit them again because I can go someplace closer. 2022(6) read more

I was craving poke and decided to stop by Poki 1 1/2 since it appeared to be pretty popular with the locals and college students! I was able to try 4 different types of protein (scallops, salmon, tuna, cooked octopus), and they were all very fresh and solid! Wanted to give a shoutout to the juicy scallops and soft, chewy octopus. The brown rice was a little clumpy but the greens were fresh and clean. I always get the spicy mayo and ponzu sauce. Their ponzu wasn't as heavy on the soy sauce base but citrus flavors were definitely prominent. They also have a pretty standard selection of toppings such as seaweed salad, edamame, cucumbers, imitation crab meat, seaweed flakes, etc. I just wish they had masago! The staff added a couple pieces of meat after he accidentally dropped two pieces on the counter so I thought that was very nice of him!! The store itself was spacious with lots of seating options inside and outdoor. Lots of parking options as well! read more

Food and service were great and the place was clean. I would come back here to grab poke again.

Food: - Ingredients are surprisingly pretty fresh! - Generous portions. - The small bowl is surprisingly filling, so even if you're a big eater, recommend scaling down a size. Service: - Servers were polite, quick, and efficient. - Brought a friend who never had poké (poki?) before, servers were understanding and didn't give us attitude. Seating: - Indoor and outdoor. - Weather was great so we opted to sit outside, rolled down the umbrella on the table to get some sunlight. Parking: - North Park across the board isn't easy, but there is street parking usually around the corner. - That said, plan to walk a little bit after parking. - Weekends and peak hours can be tricky. read more

Perfect spot to satisfy a poke craving! I got a large bowl that was enough for 2 full meals- great! I got tuna, salmon, albacore, and spicy tuna- all tasted fresh.

First off, the staff is really friendly and great if you have any questions. Secondly, you can tell just from looking at the items, that everything is fresh (although the tofu looked a little weird). I got a 2 piece bowl and it was huge!! They fill it up for sure! I got the spicy tuna and octopus and there was no fishy taste, which I was thankful for. Whether you ate them separately or together, all the toppings I got were very flavorful and fresh. Will definitely be coming back as this has to be one of my favorite poke places! read more

Always a solid choice for the go-to. They never disappoint. A little chain, so if you're looking for something more original and authentic this isn't your spot. If you're looking for a solid experience consistently, this is it. Parking is challenging in the area, but do able. read more

Overall I've had really great bowls from this shop. I'll admit that they aren't totally my favorite simply because San Diego has some fierce competition in the poke/fresh fish space. But if I'm craving a bowl near this location I won't hesitate to stop in! read more

Came here on a Friday evening, which can be challenging to find parking since it's located in the heart of North Park. The storefront had outdoor seating and were moderately spaced apart. The workers were all wearing masks. The service was fast and friendly! I opted for the Small bowl, which comes with two scoops of poke for about $12. They had a good selection of toppings as well! The poke bowl was absolutely delicious! I highly recommending going with brown rice as the base. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the brown rice was! My two scoops were salmon and tuna. The poke itself was good but not the best I've had in San Diego. The overall value is definitely there though! All in all, solid poke joint and will be coming back. read more

Poki One N Half - Seafood Near Me - San Diego, California

Pros: - They offer to-go amid the covid madness - They dont charge extra for avo - They dont skimp on the fish - They offer minced lobster as a protein at no extra charge - Good sized portions, even on to-go orders (which other places usually screw you on. See "Lethal Weapon 2" for more info) - Good all round deal for a large bowl. Cons: - They use pickled jalapenos. Not awful but fresh would be better. - The aforementioned minced lobster, while a nice change from the norm, isnt super amazing. Its sort of dry and you can tell its basically leftover meat. - They need more sauce variety. They basically have 3 sauces and you choose how hot you want it. read more
