This is a great place. The staff is very sweet. The food is fresh and choices are vast. Poki isn't cheap. But this is true anywhere. And it's relatively affordable here. read more

I found piece of plastic in my bowl. It looks like a corner of a food packaging bag. Workers Please be more attentive when working! Lost my appetite. read more

Poke was good here and the portions were huge! I love that they don't charge for avocado as well. I got a medium bowl and had it for dinner and a midnight snack. The staff were friendly as well. I wouldn't say it's really a sit down spot but it's a solid poke spot with fresh fish and ingredients! read more

Let me tell you I love poke. If I feel the food is not good I'll review it with a honest review right away. First of all the service was superb. Very welcoming and warm. The topping station was so clean and the visual was like a color pallete. I love when I go in a place and its eye catchy. I ordered a little bit of everything to taste the quality of the fish and its so fresssh!!! Me and my wife would be definitely a go to place in the buena park area. Thank you. read more

This place is definitely a hole in the wall because it's in a plaza that I've passed by SO many times. Who knew that there would be such a good poke spot hidden here! Very kind staff and good portions here. I liked that they didn't charge for avocado! My bowl tasted very fresh and I really enjoyed it here. Would come again! read more

The portions are very good for the price. Great service and has seating indoors. It was nice to visit and can't wait to go back

Way easy to order and stop in real quick! The serving is very large, I had some for dinner and refrigerated the rest for lunch the next day. I'm surprised! I really enjoyed the bowl I built for myself. The staff is really nice. Quick and efficient. There's many tables and seats inside. But when I went no one was dining in and most took for take out. read more

Tried this pole place in Buena Park for the first time. They offer 3,4,5 scoops of protein. They have good variety of fish and mix ins selections. They don't charge extra for the first scoop of avocado. A must-try poke place if you are in the area! read more

Poki Yaki - Updated menu - Japanese Near Me - Buena Park, California

A Buena Park classic poke spot. Have been coming here for over a decade since it opened in 2015 and it has been one of the few spots that have not just weathered the times, but held and grown. Emma helped us today and really dialed in what makes this place a mainstay for me and mine; the food to price ratio, the hospitality, the kindness, and the flavor. Will most likely be back next week if not sooner! read more

Look no other drop will hook it up like this place ! The customer service is phenomenal first off!! I get my poki all salad and it's always so fresh!!! The sauce choices crazy! I love this place! Def recommend you won't regret it. read more

Poki Yaki - poke bowl - Japanese Near Me - Buena Park, California

Poke was delicious, portions were great...my only gripe is my daughter who does not any raw fish was not allowed to select crabmeat 3x without having to pay additional fees...the gal working stated crabmeat was more expensive but I'm not sure how artificial crabmeat is more expensive than tuna and salmon. For my bowl I selected spicy tuna twice--why was there no charge for this? The logic doesn't make sense and she asked me 3x if it's going to be okay. It's okay bc you're an establishment and free to price things however you like, however, the logic is not sound. We paid for 4 bowls & tipped, but make it make sense that other proteins are cheaper than a bowl of white rice and crab meat. read more

This poke spot is located in a small shopping center that you'd probably drive by if you weren't looking for it. I stopped in for lunch. The quality of the food was fine, I enjoyed my meal, but was not blown away or left wanting to return anytime soon. read more

Poki Yaki - Poke Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Buena Park, California

Worst Poke ever. Huge amount of rice and barely any toppings. Shrimp and Scallops are super tiny. Most of my toppings I ordered were missing. When I complained about the rice I was told it was one scoop but it was at least 3 cups of hard rice. I never had poke that was that tasteless and with so much rice. read more

For a small spot, the ambience is nice and it does not feel intimidating to order. The staff were friendly and gave good suggestions. Will come back to try more things. read more

Poki Yaki - Fish eggs, cucumber, crab meat, squid, edamame, scallion, sesame - Japanese Near Me - Buena Park, California

This is our favorite Poke spot in Buena Park. Food is always fresh, they never skimp on the bowl, AND they make fresh spam masubis. Angelina has helped me a couple times and she's awesome. Amazing customer service and high quality ingredients. Be back soon! read more

Great options and good price! A regular bowl is just under $15 so two regular bowls I got came out to just under $30 and were very filling for me and my friend. We built our own bowl as the staff asks each protein, base, sauce, and toppings we want. I love that they have scallops, purple rice, and avocado is NOT EXTRA price! I got half mixed greens and half purple rice, eel sauce on top of the base, crab salad, salmon and scallops with original ponzu and creamy hawaiian sauce. There is a good number of tables inside as well as booth seating which makes it possible to come with a big group and move tables together. Service is usually decent paced. They also have other sides you can order such as spam musubi, gyoza, or hawaiian chips! Parking outside is free but can be tight, they have a bathroom, and they offer water cups and have a filter available for customers. read more

My go-to poke spot for clean and quick bowl of delicious poke. Obviously not hawaiian authentic style but there are all the topping choices to choose from and it's super filling and fresh. would recommend trying this out. read more

As someone who loves poke and can be a bit critical about it, I have to say--Poki Yaki hits the mark. It's one of my go-to spots in the Anaheim/Buena Park area when I'm craving something fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The salmon and spicy tuna are consistently yummy, and I was pleasantly surprised when they started offering purple rice--a fun, tasty, and nutritious twist that adds something extra to the bowl. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are solid, and the prices are affordable for the quality you get. Plus, the staff is always friendly and efficient. There's definitely space to dine in if you'd like, but this isn't a place you go for ambience--it's a spot you go for delicious poke done right perhaps after a long hot day at Knotts. If you're in the area and looking for a casual, tasty bowl, Poki Yaki is absolutely worth checking out. read more

I'm really picky about my poke and I love this place! I usually order through DoorDash and it's always delicious. I recently had an issue with my DoorDash order and the manager/owner Grace was just the sweetest soul!! Great quality food and amazing customer service! If you're in the area you should definitely check this spot out! read more

Walked in about 45 min before closing time and there were 2 young ladies there. They were nice and hard at work as the couple before us ordered quite a few different bowls. Despite this and being close to closing time, they were very patient with us as it was our first time in and still accommodated some side items like gyoza and spam musubis. Half the chairs on one side were up but the other side of the room still had bench seating and tables available. The poke bowls themselves were good. No issues and plenty of mix in's and toppings. The sizes are based on the amount of protein scoops. The musubis were not the prettiest or the freshest but they were still on point. Gyoza from a bag but crispy to perfection. Deep fried of course. The bag of chips were a tad stale but it actually worked since I was scooping my poke up with the chips. All in all if you're super picky, this may not be the spot for you. However I enjoyed my meal and i will definitely be returning. read more

I've been coming here for well over five years now and the quality has only gone up since. They never miss. The fish is always fresh, the portions are huge, and the service is lovely. It's my favorite poke spot in the area with the most reasonable prices for the amount you get. They recently remodeled to include a spacious dine-in area as well. Personally, I would recommend going in person versus ordering Poki Yaki online, because it seems they give you a significantly bigger portion with the former. Sometimes the workers struggle to close the lid because of how full they packed the bowl! read more

Super solid bowl of poke. The ula'ula spicy 2 sauce had a really nice kick and all the ingredients tasted very fresh! read more

This place is a gem! If you're looking for a cute little poki place, this is the spot! The workers there definitely don't skimp and they were super kind, filling my bowl beyond the brim! There's a decent amount of seating considering it's a smaller establishment, but the food is definitely worth the price-- delicious and on the more affordable side! I highly recommend coming to try if you're ever in the area :)) read more

Nestled inside behind a Chase Bank on Beach and La Plalms is a small but decent poki place been coming here for quite some time. My wife and I decided to swing by a little after 12:30 pm on a Saturday. The place had a new layout but still the area. Their fish is fresh and doesn't have any fishy smell that's noticeable if the fish becomes old. Serving sizes are generous on all fish and mixings. The attendants where both courteous and listens to whatever you want added in short service was promptly done on all your orders. read more

Been coming here for a long time, i always order online and pickup, had no issues. Last time I ordered, they took my monmey but the place looked to be permanently closed! I guess I am out 50+ dollars! WTH! read more

I ordered this through doordash and it worth the price. I like how they don't cap u on the sides. The sauces are good. They follow the order that you want and give alot. Even for a regular bowl, it's alot of protein and sides. I like they have purple rice!!! it's not as starchy as much as the white rice. Def need to go in person. read more

The service was outstanding, i don't know her name but the girl with purple hair was very cheerful and kind. The portions in my bowl were very generous. Overall the food quality and flavor were great, without sky high prices. I would definitely recommend this place if you love poke! read more

I got the regular-sized bowl, purple rice and spicy tuna, salmon and albacore. Ingredients are not bad. Biggest complaint is the portion size. They gave plenty of rice but each scoop of protein is super small-a fraction of a small ice cream scoop. Par for the course with most places these days, unfortunately. Came on a Sunday afternoon. 2 workers. Had to wait for the spam musubi which they seemed to cook on the spot. read more

Good food unfortunately the staff does not use gloves when they handling the food. No good. read more

We decided to try Poki Yaki since it was a meatless Friday. The restaurant is located in the same plaza as Coffee Code and next door to Uncle Borneo. When we arrived, it was quite empty so it was a quick transaction. The staff was friendly but a bit flustered with the multiple take-out orders. As with all poké shops, it is freshly made to order. You first select a base - white or brown rice, spring mix, chips, or half and half. They offer 3 sizes - regular (3 scoops of protein), medium (4 scoops), and large (5 scoops). The protein options are salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, shrimp, scallops, octopus, and tofu. For sauces, they have several options from original ponzu, sesame oil, spicy mayo, creamy Hawaiian, and several others. There are no gluten-free options. All bowls include crab salad and seaweed salad plus unlimited toppings. I'm not sure if the avocado is extra. Our customized poké bowls: Small - half/half with white rice and spring mix. I opted for salmon and scallops tossed in the creamy Hawaiian and spicy mayo sauces. I topped off the bowl with cucumber, white onions, green onions, fried onions, furikake, and avocado. Large - white rice. The proteins - salmon, shrimp, and scallops in the original ponzu. Topped with green onions. Overall, the bowls were not bad. The fish was on the fresh side. The sauces were tasty. It was not as good as our favorite poké spot but it was a decent substitute. read more

Super yummy food and friendly staff. Protein options were very fresh and tasty. We ate inside, it was easy to tell this is a popular place as there was plenty of customer traffic. We will be coming back! read more

I found this place on accident going to the UPS store next door. I was overjoyed when I found this place as the food is great, the staff are friendly and the place is clean and comfortable. I'd recommend stopping here for a good poki bowl. read more

Food is fresh, sauce is good, however the spicy sauces are sooo spicy. Only tried the spicy tuna and regular salmon. The salmon can be a bit fishy but it was fine overall. They give you a lot of food so you'll be full off of a regular size (3 scoops). Will be back! read more

Came to get dinner here, the food was WARM the servers didn't properly scoop the fish so everything was disproportional, servers seemed new so they just poured like HELLA sauce so overall my poke bowl was very displeasing... I usually come here and really enjoy my meal but this time it was soo bad. Probably won't be coming back here anymore. Ended up with a horrible stomachache the next day... read more

Their Poki was fresh and delicious. Their service was good as well. We will definitely come back again.

I have been going here for a few years and love this place. The flavor is just so much more authentic than other places and the fish is fresh (not fishy tasting). I was just concerned by other reviewers who said that they didn't fill it all the way as they used to, so I didn't come back since the start of Covid... the warmer weather made me crave this, so I thought I'd go and give it a shot. I'm happy to see that they have taken their customers opinions into account and that says a lot. I'm just sad that they forgot my chips, but they switched persons finishing my order and I also forgot cause I was just so hungry lol. 10/10 would recommend. read more
