    A good poke option for SLO as it's very limited. The bowl is a good portion and definitely fills you up. The price is a little expensive, but it does ensure the quality. ig: @cravingswithcat

    Enough choices in protein, sides, toppings to allow you some nice customization choices without it being overwhelming. The taste was pretty good, the portions generous, and service was friendly and prompt. Filling and fairly satisfying. We'd come here again.

    WOW!!!!! EACH BITE TOOK MY BREATH AWAY! You know usually there's a bite that is the best and you keep wanting to go back to that bite... NOT HERE!! Every single bite was INCREDIBLE. I got a Poke burrito and housed the entire thing within 10 minutes. The staff was so kind and let me try a few things that I was curious to put on my burrito. Edward and Eylan (might have spelled that name wrong and I'm sorry) you guys are crushing it and THANK YOU!! WOW!! I kept dancing while I was eating because I was full of joy. Small was the perfect size!

    Went back for poke bowls. No more tomago! I realize eggs are expensive but come on. At least charge extra for this. In its place they had macaroni salad in its place. Ugh!!

    I got a bowl with white rice, tuna and salmon, seaweed salad, cucumbers, corn, green onions, and corn. For my sauces, I got sweet shoyu & ponzu. I thought my protein was incredibly salty, which is interesting because I thought the "sweet" shoyu sauce would nicely balance the citrusy ponzu taste. The protein also had a fishy aftertaste. I also thought my cucumbers had a soggy consistency to it. Though, everything else in my bowl was better. I liked the sweet, fluffy rice taste and crunchiness of the seaweed salad. In addition, my friend thoroughly enjoyed her bowl, as pictured at the top. The service was mediocre at best, as the worker had a cold and apathetic demeanor toward me. Though, every other worker in the store was friendly towards me and my friend. If you're looking for a quick poke fix, this place would satisfy that craving. Though, I would highly recommend considering another spot if you could.

    The seafood was fresh and I didn't have to wait for my food because it was made in front of me. I sat on a high table with high chairs, and there was plenty of seating. Make sure that you get a free water or if you preferred bottled water. It was a relaxing experience and I look forward to visit a third time when I'm in the area.

    $21.75 large poke bowl is SO filling. 3/12/2022
    Rachel S.

    Legitimately the best poke bowl I've had from Hawaii to New York. As of today, for $21.95 you get 4 large scoops of protein plus 3 sides which can also be protein like spicy tuna or avocado or mac salad. All of the sauces are gluten free and made with tamari! Only a couple items weren't gluten free, such as the fish eggs. I felt like I was waddling out of this place it was so filling the entire day. I absolutely will be back! PS: the don't take cash so make sure you have a card.

    Medium Poke Bowl $17 5/5 * 3 meats and 2 sides and unlimited toppings * 5/5 would come again * 2 scoops of salmon and 1 scoop of yellow tail * lots of sides and dry toppings like furikake to choose from Medium Bowl $15 4/5 * 3 proteins: salmon, yellowtail, shrimp * 2 sides: spicy crabmeat and avocado * sauce: sweet shoyu and miso * toppings: tobiko, carrots, corn, cucumber, edamame, sesame seeds, furikake * was craving poke and this place delivered!! * recommend choosing one sauce to make the poke bowl less saucy, unless you prefer otherwise!! My friends added Hot Cheetos to theirs!!

    Every time I come here they're consistently good. Large portion and fresh ingredients! The staff are always friendly and helpful too. The medium bowl gets you 3 proteins and 2 sides while the small bowl gets you 2 proteins and a side.

    PokiRito is a standout as far as local poke goes, and it's absolutely great for a healthy meal. Depending on how hungry one is, there are three sizes of poke bowls available with a base of either white rice, brown rice or mixed salad greens. I prefer a half rice/half greens combination as a healthier option. One may choose proteins from fresh fish -- Ahi tuna, salmon, albacore, yellowtail or sous vide shrimp / scallops, or cooked selections such as Spam, Kalua pork, teriyaki chicken, beef patty or egg. I have found their fish to always be very fresh & delicious. The sides & sauces selections are wide reaching. I like combining a couple sauces for a wonderful mixture that enhances the bowl. It's great that the sides of spicy tuna or spicy crab, avocado or tamago are available as a regular side, not as an extra charge as at some other poke restaurants. The mix-ins & toppings (veggies, fruits, kimchi, edamame, crispy garlic/onion & many others) selections are nicely varied. Parking is extremely limited and tight, as PokiRito shares the lot with other businesses near campus. The employees are upbeat & friendly as they work as a team to keep the line moving. At this time, they only take credit or debit cards or payment by phone. Prepare your poke bowl with your favorite selections & enjoy! Great job guys, we'll be back!

    Oh my! I am so happy I have discovered this place! Living so close to the ocean, I am always craving poke bowls, but it is so hard to find a good one. I thought that until I tried PokiRito. Firstly, this place is a great bang for your buck! I got a large poke bowl and I could barely finish the whole thing because it was so huge and it was still under $20! They give you so much of everything! Then all the different options! They have everything you could possibly imagine to put in a poke bowl as a add-in. It is completely customized and I was almost overwhelmed by all of the different ingredients while I created by poke bowl. Most importantly, all of the fish seemed very fresh and right from the coast. Living on the coast, that is all you can hope for, so I was a happy camper. I will definitely be coming back and am so happy I found my new poke bowl spot!

    Small: $14. Two proteins and one side ( choice of spicy tuna, spicy crab, seeweed, avo etc )

Such a unique flavor profile, it was savory, creamy, rich but not heavy, and just seasoned perfectly to pair with the lobster. My husband said his steak was wonderfully seasoned and cooked too. The restaurant itself is beautiful inside and works great for an upscale casual dining experience. The service was great too. No complaints, except for the fact we live over 3 hours away.

You order at the counter and are given a number. Since they weren't very busy, they brought the food to my table, which I appreciated. The prices were on the high side, though fairly typical for many Vietnamese restaurants in California. I ordered the pork platter with rice and fried egg rolls. The portion size was about right. The rice was fine--nothing particularly memorable. The pork was a generous serving and had visible grill marks, but it didn't seem freshly grilled. It appeared to have been grilled previously and then reheated. It was served hot, but the texture and presentation were not what I would expect from freshly grilled meat. Fresh off the grill would have made a noticeable difference. The egg rolls were crispy on the outside, but the filling was dry and fairly unremarkable. They weren't bad, but they weren't a standout item either. The plate also came with iceberg lettuce, sliced tomato, cucumber, and pickled carrot and radish. The cucumber was fine, while the pickled vegetables were a bit more sour than I prefer. The biggest surprise was the dipping sauce for the egg rolls. Instead of the typical Vietnamese dipping sauce, which is usually one of my favorite parts of the meal, this version had quite a bit of chili added and was much spicier than expected. Some people may enjoy that, but it wasn't what I was anticipating. Overall, the meal was good, but not memorable enough to justify going out of my way for it. The prices felt a little high given the fast-food atmosphere. If I happened to be in the area again, I might stop in and give it another try, but I wouldn't make a special trip to return.

We had our dog with us, and when we stopped in during the afternoon while walking around downtown, the hostess was incredibly pleasant and helpful. She was tall with dark hair and gave us a great recommendation on what time to come back for dinner before things got too busy. We really appreciated how welcoming she was. We came back later that evening and checked in for a table. The hostess working then, who had short brown hair, told us the wait would be about an hour, so we decided to wait. We walked around with our dog and came back to check on our table. When I asked about the wait, she told me in what felt like a very condescending and dismissive tone that we had about 45 minutes left. I mentioned that it had already been about 30 minutes, and she then corrected herself. I completely understand that restaurants get busy and that working a busy dinner shift can be stressful, but there's still a way to communicate with customers without making them feel like an inconvenience. Our table was eventually ready, and we were taken through an alley to the back patio with our dog. Unfortunately, there wasn't much interaction or warmth during that process--no "How is your evening?" or anything that made us feel particularly welcomed. That being said, the food itself was good, and our server was fine. The service was a little slow, but the restaurant was extremely busy, so I think they may simply need additional staff to keep up with the volume. We noticed people who arrived after us were we're going to have a two hour wait. Personally, I wouldn't wait that long. Overall, the food was good and the restaurant has a nice atmosphere, but the customer service and extremely long wait took away from what was supposed to be a special anniversary evening. I think there is definitely room for improvement in how guests are treated while they're waiting.
