Poke Box is a build your own poke spot in Durham…read more I initially tried the location in Markham and loved it there so I was quite surprised to see one in Durham! There's a bunch of pre-selected items that are delicious that you can choose from so it's not too overwhelming the first time you go. The service is friendly and patient and explained all the questions you may have. It is quite pricey though, at about $20 a bowl. I do which it came with more protein but it's delicious regardless! Great spot if you want something quick & healthy. You can either dine or take out it's a great spot. 4/5

The protein variety is pretty good here and it's fun to build your own and choose your favs. The first time we tried it, we got the classic Salmon and shared it because we already had eaten dinner prior to that. It was super spicy (like kimchi spicy but minus the sour flavor)... So we drank SO much water. The second time, we decided to get more tame sauces and could actually taste all the delicious flavors of the poke. The owner is super nice. It's fairly quiet inside the restaurant and doesn't have any smell to it. The bubble tea was pretty good too! I got the classic lemonade which was basically fizzy lemonade. The tapioca was similar to Chatime in flavor, so I say pretty good!! Overall, definitely coming back!

Healthy alternatives for students during exam season, when most end up eating out meal after meal. Poké here is both relatively healthy and delicious.

Came here for their buy one get one free grand opening special with a few of my friends and we were…read morepleasantly surprised by the great quality of food offered here. Environment: The restaurant is located at the King/University plaza, where there are ample of parking space and really convenient for those taking the bus as well. The restaurant itself is clean, well lit, and has a few seats. It's best to come in a group of 4 of fewer if you plan on dining here. The decor seems to be going for a "bathroom chic" as described by my friend -- "4 stars - delicious food, feels like I'm in a bathroom"! Lol. It's mainly because of the tiles on the wall and the uncomfortable seats. Food: The BOGO special only allowed us to order from their special bowls so we tried the Big Umami (salmon + tuna) and the one with the Duck. Quantity wise the bowl seems to be good value given that it normally costs $15 per bowl. They put a generous amount of toppings on top of the rice and the flavour was good and the fish sashimi was quite fresh. Definitely no watery/soggy texture! The food also looks damn good with lots of colours, which not only is super appetizing but also so Insta worthy!! Service: Basically fast food McDonald like ordering, no table service. When we were lining up they got someone to hand us the big cardboard menu and explained to us how the ordering works. However...they somehow managed to messed up the order. I got the Big Umami with rice and only one of them had rice while the other one was mixed greens :( definitely a little too healthy for me.....

The customer service was good. There are 6 signature bowls at $14.99 each, all regular size only. The following garnishes are free: scallions, ginger, nori, radish, fried onions, and sesame seeds. You can also add sides (most are $3.99). You can build your own bowl at $11.99 (snack size) or $15.99 (regular size). I ordered the "Poke Eats" signature bowl ($14.99) since this is my first time trying Poke Eats. It was quite good. It comes with white sushi rice, tuna, maple sesame shoyu, cucumber, sweet corn, crab salad, and edamane. The tuna was fresh. The only tiny complaint is that the rice was a little clumpy. There is no free WiFi. The restaurant is not wheelchair accessible (there are two steps at the entrance. There are no customer washrooms. There is paid neighbourhood street parking. Review 2023-348

If by some chance you haven't tried Poke before, the best way I can describe it is that it's kind of like deconstructed sushi in the form of a delicious rice bowl. it's both filling and nourishing, without leaving you in a food coma. Toppings include things like tuna sashimi, corn, edamame, ginger, seaweed, avocado, etc.

The salmon was quite fresh and decent portion but nothing amazing. Brown rice was cooked well. The edamame beans, corn, seaweed salad and avocado were all great parts of the bowl. In particular the avocado seemed fresh. The minor downside was that they forgot some of the garnishes we asked - totally missing the nori and seasame seeds. Overall, 4/5 - might try again if there's a deal.

I absolutely adored that they added soba noodles as one of the bases. Best thing ever :) Though I'm still not a huge fan of their crab salad topping; it reminds me too much of a coleslaw XD Food definitely much improved :) Will come back again to try more combos!
