    Large poke bowl with the nicest staff running this joint! I've tried nearly all the poke places in HK and this is my goto. I have come here when I want a good amount of protein at a fast casual price, all served by the nicest people behind the counter. The interior is nothing to write home about. Usually its not the cleanest and there are supply boxes in the corners. If you can look past that though, the selection of fresh fish and delicious sides make for the best poke in HK. The key is that they separate the toppings into mix-ins and actual toppings. The mix-ins are mixed together with the protein choices so that the latter is properly coated in whatever sauce that comes with the mix-ins. This adds a whole new level of flavor compared to just straight layering all the ingredients. Of course, your standard toppings like crispy onions/garlic/nori are still treated as final layers. A great selection of Asian teas and drinks makes for the perfect poke bowl, the best I've had so far in NYC

    I made my own poké salad with two different proteins. My favorite part was actually the mushrooms. They were beyond! Quick, convenient and yummy!

    Ordered for delivery and super happy I found Poke Inn! The bowls are reasonably priced compared to other spots in the city. I got a medium bowl with salmon and tuna, with lots of toppings. I chose to get a salad base instead of rice. The lettuce was super fresh. Overall, the bowl was pretty packed. I would order here again for dinner!

    This isn't going to be a long or epic review. It's a poke place. The food is fresh. The quality of the tuna was great. We've been here a few times (or rather taken out from here a few times) and it's been consistently good. Not much ambiance. No inside dining area. And it lacks any kind of personable interaction. Plus they're still operating in a early-COVID type feel even though the city's bounced back, giving a more ominous feeling when you come and go. But, it does what you want which is serve up delicious poke in a bowl.

    Poke Inn continues to deliver! I got a poke bowl delivered for lunch today and it came so fast! It really hit the spot! I love the pick of salmon and spicy tuna and their spicy aioli sauce is my fave. You can add so many toppings, which I really appreciate! They really load it up too so there is lots of flavor in every single bite! If you are looking for a go-to poke spot in the Times Square area, this is it!

    A friend recommended coming here for lunch...it was great recommendation and location was easy to get to. Small inside so no seating but can get take out and sit outside or just take it to go. Friendly staff and services. Variety in the menu to choose from. Options to create your own poke or select from their menu. Choose your base - rice/noodles, salad or burrito, then proteins, sauce, mix-ins and toppings.. There is also sushi option if you please.... Easy peasy. I had the sushi rice with chicken and shrimp with ponzu sauce and toppings...it was delicious. There's a Yelp check-in coupon for free soda for one time use. Prices are reasonable. Definitely will come again and try something different perhaps.

    Their zucchini noodles are a must-get! Their salmon and tuna are fresh and generous in portion. Sadly I don't pass by this place as often anymore, but I would love to go back if I have a chance. 10/10 recommend, some of the best poke bowls I've had! Great prices and big portions

    Rainbow Poke Bowl
    Alexa L.

    Doesn't look like much when you're walking past, but this is my fave pokè spot in the area! This quick counter-serve stop has great value, friendly and fast service, and the courtyard outside is a wonderful place to sit and eat (or you can grab-and-go). I'm usually super indecisive, which is why the Rainbow Poke Bowl (pictured) is my favorite - it has both Salmon and Tuna, and enough toppings that I feel like I'm getting a different flavor with every bite. You can also customize your bowl or just pick what you want, but if you're not in a mood to make decisions their menu board is full of great options.

    Build your bowl.

    Fresh and delicious. Great service. A lot to offer!!! Fresh fish, a lot of sauces. A lot of toppings!!

    Large Size Poke Bowl
    Kristen G.

    A co-worker told me the Poké here was great with fair prices so I wanted to try it. I ordered the large size. You get a choice of three proteins and all kinds of toppings! I chose salad as my base. Ahi tuna, salmon and shrimp were my three choices. Also ordered it with their signature poke sauce (contains mayo), red onion, kale, cilantro, avocado (upcharge), scallions, charred broccoli, sesame seeds, and roasted seaweed. Delivery arrived on time, no spills. It was packed neatly. Order is correct and it's a great portion size. Filling! So happy about that. Mine was $15.95 plus tax and tip and delivery totaled $17 (promo on seamless). Sooo happy!! Everything from the seafood to the veggies to the avocado was fresh!! I definitely recommend trying this place. Very good!

    Best poke spot in midtown! They are so nice, don't skip on portions and have the freshest ingredients.

    I had stopped by this little hole in the wall a handful of times before stopping in several months…read moreago during a cold winter day. The place was pretty quiet, and the staff was friendly. To drink, I had a Hot Organic Super Matcha Tea for 4.95. It was alright tea, and I wish teas were included in the price point, as otherwise, this place feels pretty traditional. In terms of food, I only ordered from the seasonal menu, so I'm not sure how the rest of the dishes are, but from what I had, I would go back for a light traditional meal. My appetizer was the Dashimaki Tamago/だし巻まき卵たま, or sweet savory omelet with daikon for $6.98. This came with three pieces along with a little dollop of grated radish. The pieces had a light sweetness to them along with a bit of savoriness. They were juicy and a bit bouncy while maintaining some softness. This was standard and good. My main dish was the $19.98 Beef Tan Tan Udon, or ground sirloin beef, spicy broth, baby bok choy, kikurage mushroom, scallions, and sesame seeds. While I have preferred udon from spots like Raku, the udon had a mild chew to it, and they were still good. The broth had a mix of sweetness and spiciness with a nice depth of flavor. The vegetables inside tasted fresh, and the meat added some richness. This was good as well. I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to go here, but the food was good. If you're in the area and looking for no frills Japanese dining in a more comfortable atmosphere at pretty decent Midtown East prices, I would recommend this place.

I really enjoyed their niku udon. The broth was flavorful but not too salty. The menu offered a variety of options, all reasonably priced between $10-20, ensuring great value for the quality provided. I would come back to Tensai for some comforting Japanese udon noodles!

I tried a sake that is made from red rice, which was really delicious, and my wife had a sauvignon blanc, which was also really good. This is a fun place to try a bunch of Japanese small plates in a nice setting where the tables are not too crowded and the noise level is very reasonable.

We walked in around 7pm and there were plenty of tables available, but we decided to sit in the separate bar room near the entrance.

They have a good happy hour with both drink and food options. We both ordered margaritas, which needed a slight adjustment as they were made too sour, and I also tried some sake, which was a good selection. For food, I ordered the fried chicken, which was very good, crispy, flavorful, and a generous portion, served with tartar sauce ($20). We also shared edamame and a couple of yakitori skewers: the shiitake mushrooms ($6) and pork belly ($8). The mushrooms were quite bland and I did not finish them, but the pork belly looked great and my friend enjoyed it. Overall, this is a good Midtown East spot for happy hour or a casual lunch and I would return.

    On our very first day in New York, we had some time before taking the Statue of Liberty cruise…read more We originally had another restaurant in mind, but the timing did not work out, so we searched on Google and found Sozai Japanese Restaurant, which was supposed to be close to our hotel. Google said it was a 10-minute walk. But honestly... was that 10 minutes measured by someone running? It was an extremely hot day in New York, and my family and I were walking there, sweating like we were on a small survival mission. It felt more like 20 minutes or more. By the time we arrived, we were hot, tired, and very hungry. But the moment we opened the door, everything changed. The manager welcomed us with such a bright and warm smile. We told him we did not have a reservation, and he kindly said it was okay and seated us right away. That alone made us feel so much better. As soon as we sat down, we ordered cold beer and highballs. After walking in that heat, that first sip felt like pure happiness. It was exactly what we needed. My sister, my mom, and I each ordered different kinds of donburi, and my daughter ordered tonkatsu. When the food came out, I almost fainted -- in the best way possible. The rice was absolutely amazing. It was perfectly sticky, nutty, soft, and full of flavor. I know this may sound dramatic, but every grain of rice felt like it was dancing gently in my mouth. That was the moment I thought, "This is what good rice should taste like." A good donburi is not only about the toppings. The rice has to be right, and here, it was perfect. The sashimi was incredibly fresh. The texture, the flavor, the quality -- everything was excellent. Every bite made me think, "This place really knows what they are doing." My daughter's tonkatsu was also wonderful. She is a very picky eater, but she kept saying how soft, juicy, and delicious it was, especially with the sauce. When a picky child finishes everything quietly, that is the most honest review you can get. In the end, all four of us completely finished our bowls. Not a little bit. Completely. Clean. Empty. Happy. We told the manager how much we enjoyed the food, and our server was also very kind and explained everything so nicely. The food was excellent, but the warm service made the experience even more memorable. At first, we came here simply because the timing was awkward and it was near our hotel. But by the time we left, we knew we had found a place we would want to visit again. The long, hot walk was absolutely worth it. Sozai Japanese Restaurant gave our family a delicious and happy memory on our first day in New York. If I visit New York again, I will definitely come back.

Service was very good and everyone was friendly. As for the food, it's not the best I have had for sure, but not too shabby either. However, prices were definitely on the higher side. A quick snack turned into a $120 bill after tax and tip. My favorite was probably parts of the Uni Hon Maguro Hara Don. Yes, the rice should be warmer and definitely seasoned better, but passable. The seafood was fresh, but the otoro and chutoro were a tad underwhelming. Hokkaido Uni should have been sweeter and creamier. Hamachi sashimi was fine, and so was the Ankimo (though I would have preferred it creamier). Unfortunately, the Sake Clam Miso was overcooked and not enjoyable. I would totally drink that slightly spicy clam broth like a shot though if they sold it that way. Lol Anyway, not on my top to return list, but I would certainly give it another go and try a few more items before making such a conclusion.

I was confused by this remark, though I chose not to engage in any debate or explanation; as a Japanese visitor, I preferred to avoid confrontation. Another point of contention: the restaurant automatically adds a 20% service surcharge to every check, regardless of the quality of service received. This may simply be standard practice for dining establishments in New York, yet I personally cannot accept or agree with this policy.
