    Young Lady who deserves 5/5 stars for great service!
    Ashley H.

    Amazing experience! I was served by a young lady who did a great job making our poke bowl. The ingredients were very fresh and restaurant was very clean inside. I thoroughly enjoy Poki Poki. I like the container it's in, it makes it a lot easier to eat rather than a usual to go cylinder container where everything is packed in. The miso dressing is also very delicious!!! I am happy to spend $20 on a large bowl here. Definitely worth it! Thank you for a great experience!

    I had a good experience today at poki poki. We stopped for boba and it was decent. Eli helped us he was and if ! The restaurant had a distinct smell that needs to be fixed.

    Poki Poki is our go to every single time we are in town. Huge portions, good poke, great service and so many options. Definitely coming back!

    Randomly stumbled upon Poki Poki as my family and I were wandering about the Carlsbad Beach and decided to grab some lunch-- let me tell ya about it ! Parking is shared between a few other businesses, but it seems cars come and go quite quickly here . Upon entering, the restaurant looked clean and had plenty of tables to chose from . The employee working was very welcoming and greeted us . He told us a bit about their offerings and how they are a "build-your-own" type of poke place ! I opted for a regular sized bowl-- and I was quite shocked when he pulled out an actual large to-go box lol ! (I was totally expecting a "bowl" like most poke places). Pros: *GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE *HUGE PORTIONS *LOTS OF TOPPINGS *BOBA Cons: *NOT FIRST-CATCH-OF-THE-DAY FRESH Overall, I was hoping for a more refreshing experience from a poke place by the beach. I do appreciate the generous portions and variety of toppings, but like my mom taught me ... quality over quantity . I always give benefit of the doubt here, so maybe it was just an "off" day where I got the tail end of the fish, or whatever it may be . I did finish my entire box of food because I was starving and I would totally come back if this was the only option for poke in the area !

    My husband and I were looking for a place to grab lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We narrowed down on having poki and ended up here. It's next to Board & Brew which had a very long line. Foot traffic was steady and lines comes in waves as groups of people come in. There isn't much seating so I consider us lucky that we found a table. My husband ordered a regular poki bowl (3 proteins) and I got the veggie bowl (tofu as the protein). I didn't want multiple proteins in my bowl so it was just the right amount. I had half salad and half chips as my base and my husband had brown rice for his. We both enjoyed the flavor and size of our order. When we were done, I decided to have some boba. I ordered the strawberry matcha with almond milk & peach popping boba. I should have asked for the receipt since I did t realize there was also regular boba added to it too when I got my order. I had the sweetness reduced to 1/2 and it was still a bit sweet for me so I think I would ask for less if I get it next time. Overall, great poki place to stop by when you're in Carlsbad. We didn't park in this parking lot but it looks like it may be a bit of a challenge if you do with the limited amount of space.

    Ahi tuna (the aftermath)

    Great friendly service, The ahi was fresh and the sauces very customizable. Highly tecommend

    Not so pretty anymore but this is what was leftover after I stuffed myself!

    What sets this place apart is the selection of sauces and toppings. WOW! So many to choose from but my favorite sauces are the regular poke sauce and as of today it's the spicy miso (not mayo). For toppings I go with onions, cucumber krab salad, seaweed salad, fresh jalapeño, masago, crunchy rice and seaweed flakes. It's a lot, the portions are big. Everyone working is friendly. I've only done takeout here and usually can't resist having a boba tea too. Grab a bowl and head to the beach to catch the sunset!

    SOFT OPENING! This Poki Poki just opened up in Carlsbad with soft opening hours 11a-8p! It's right next to Board and Brew and 7 Eleven. I've gone to other locations in Encinitas and coming to this location, it is so much bigger! I love that it's just a 5 min walk to the beach. There's way more tables to dine in, a lot of space, and they have new drink options, boba and alcohol! I came in with my girlfriend and we got a regular poke bowl. Prices are pretty average. We got pretty good portions too. Ethan is the employee that served us and very nice customer service, he helped us as soon as we got inside. The food is good, I wish we got more, can't wait to come back and try their new drink menu

    First time trying this place on my birthday and I really enjoyed it! The customer service was great on a busy Monday afternoon with all of the tourists. I also ordered a boba to treat myself with and I was pleasantly 2. Definitely will be back!

I was kind of bummed that I was the only person dining for lunch, they honestly deserve a crowd. The food and service was 10/10. The setup is really cute on the inside as well and I was able to sit comfortably at a table with my daughter's stroller right next to me. Upon entering, I was greeted right away. I already knew that I wanted to order the Khao Soi because I had looked up their menu and pictures way before coming in and it looked like their specialty. I ordered an iced jasmine green tea as well and chose a table to sit at. The woman who took my order was really nice and helpful with ordering. My food didn't take long to come out, and it was DELICIOUS. This was my first time trying this dish so I didn't know what to expect but it was everything and more. It was topped with what I think was fried onion and chili crisp as well for some added spice. The tea was also so delicious, the crushed ice they use is my favorite. The tea was garnished with an orange slice and my toddler decided to much on it. The woman who took my order noticed my daughter eating the orange slice and she brought me out a couple more on the side. You really don't experience that level of customer service anymore, so it was such a sweet gesture. They have a lot of other things on their menu that I would love to come back and try. I also used the restroom before leaving and it was super clean. I honestly have no complaints whatsoever and I hope this business continues to thrive!

Finally sauces and toppings. They also have chicken katsu, gyoza, fried Calamari, and their specialties. We got five scoops poke bowls, fried Calamari, and macaroni salad. The poke bowl was very fresh, savory, and really delicious. They added generous quantity of base, protein and toppings. Their macaroni salad was creamy, rich and flavorful. Fried Calamari was crispy and well seasoned.We had a great dinner. My review is mainly for the food. Everything was well packe. Next time, I will stop by Poké Chop to get the whole experience.

Poké was calling my name and Poki Poki was highly rated for delivery as well as being reasonably priced. I went with a "regular" sized "bowl" and WHAT?! I got a massive takeout box filled to the brim! Believe me, I'm not complaining but I was pleasantly surprised. I had a few add ons to my bowl, but overall it was about $23 which was just fine for the quality and the quantity of food. In my bowl I got spicy tuna, cucumber, spicy crab, avocado, salmon, spicy mayo, over white rice. Everything was absolutely delicious and the spicy tuna and spicy mayo was the perfect little kick! All the components tasted super fresh and it was the perfect "bowl" overall. Filling and tasty while still being refreshing. I also got one of their Vietnamese iced coffees and WHEEWWW tread lightly. It was absolutely phenomenal but I was bouncing off the walls. Granted, I needed that for the long day I had ahead, but sometimes that can be too much. 10/10 do recommend though.

We went with fish, shrimp, and potato, and the potato was the clear winner, by far. While we enjoyed all the tacos, and you can tell these use quality ingredients here, they were basically street size. For the price, I cannot recommend the combo. They have many interesting beers on tap and a good selection of unique wines. I have had the Shoots Japanese lager before and it is a good one. I went with a dark Mexican lager this time and loved it. This is primarily an outdoor seating place. Order at the counter and grab a seat. Get the poke.

The restaurant is located in a plaza shared with other businesses, but my friends and I didn't have any trouble finding parking. We came here after a long day of shopping and were really excited to grab some poke. I've had this chain before, there's even a location at SDSU where I attend school, so I already knew how the ordering process worked. We ordered four bowls, all fully customized. I love that you can choose your toppings almost buffet-style, although some do come at an additional cost. One thing I really appreciate about Poke One & Half is that they offer free avocado, which most poke places don't. I got greens and brown rice with salmon, and initially, everything tasted great as usual. Unfortunately, the next day I got food poisoning. I'm fairly certain it was from the salmon, it looked brown and slimy, but I didn't think too much of it at the time since the place seemed busy and the fish appeared freshly cut. I ended up throwing up the next day, so personally, I wouldn't return to this specific location. That said, every other Poke One & Half location I've been to has been great and has never caused any stomach issues. Overall, the ambiance was clean and nice, with both indoor and outdoor seating available. The restaurant itself was pretty quiet, and the staff were decently friendly.
