    I tend to be picky when it comes to poke because I'm not a huge fan of raw fish. But I liked the marinade they used for the tuna. Their build your own bowl gives you the freedom to choose from a variety of ingredients, most of which don't cost extra. A few ingredients such as avocado come with an extra charge. For your base you get to choose between rice, quinoa, and salad or half-half. Don't forget to also grab Steve's Hawaii Fruit Tea made with bold black tea from Great Wall Tea Co. & Steve's tropical blend of pineapple, orange & grapefruit Holiday Special: Get 2 Bowls + 2 drinks for ONLY $25! They have 20+ locations in BC! Food 5/5 Service 3/5 Ambiance 3.5/5 Parking 4.5/5 (we went at around 2pm on a weekday and there was plenty of paid street parking)

    I was looking forward to this place opening, as I am a huge fan of Poke and have it on a regular basis. Unfortunately, I won't be going back. There is just too much competition in that area that blow this place out of the park with quality and service. I ordered the Regular Bowl with Quinoa and chose the salmon as my protein. The serving was on the small side. I had to ask for extra Salmon after she served 1/2 a scoop instead of a full scoop. I did get the Regular .....not the small. I also noticed while waiting to pay....the customer after me had also ordered a bowl and it was much more generous. Maybe they need to establish across the board portion sizes so that all customers get what the pay for...instead of each employee serving what the they want that day. Imagine if Chipotle and a High School Cafeteria had a child...that's what their service reminded me of. They were not busy....one person behind me and one in front and yet they put all their energy into rushing and none into service and allowing guests to choose their 15 + items.....give me a minute..will you? The actual taste of the Poke? Honestly?....not even comparable to the other dozen Poke places in the vicinity of Yaletown...not even close. It didn't taste fresh and I didn't like it...so much so..that I threw it out. I wish I could've given these guys a stellar review, but I can't be less than honest. This was my experience with their food and service. Wishing them the best of luck.

    The employees were very rude they charge even for the bag !!!!they were not nice and had something…read moreto say a face to make with every option I picked

    I've tried the other two Pokérritos in Vancouver and had good experiences. This was my first visit…read moreto this location and my first time trying the namesake pokérrito. Compared to the locations on W 8th and Hornby, this location is more optimized for takeout; the seating is just stools at counters along the walls and for me the counter was awkwardly high compared to the height of the stool. It was also a little loud. If you're just getting takeout it doesn't make a difference because the food is consistent between all locations, but I would recommend the other location downtown (or the W 8th location if that's in range) for a more comfortable dine-in experience. I tried the Diamond Head pokerrito and subbed out the spicy tuna for the vegan tuna. It's still not a vegan meal if you do this because there are other seafood ingredients in the wrap, but I wanted to try the vegan tuna. It was delicious but very messy because the pokérrito is essentially a giant sushi roll and not sealed at the ends. You kind of have to keep it wrapped in the paper while you eat it but there's no graceful way to eat the ends. I really enjoyed the flavours of this even if I had to get my hands dirty though. The vegan tuna is pretty good. The texture is close enough to real tuna that I wouldn't have noticed it was different if I didn't know. I also got a tiramisu. When I ordered, the person making my order informed me that it was still frozen but it was still good frozen, like ice cream. So I decided that I'd try it and it was pretty good as a frozen dessert except the large ladyfingers at the bottom were slower to soften and hard to scoop out. The coffee soaked into the ladyfingers was pretty strong and the bitterness was a nice contrast with the mascarpone cream. Their prices are very reasonable. The pokérrito and tiramisu came out to $19.90.

    As the name would suggest, it's a typical poke place, build-your-own style. There's not a lot that…read morereally stands out to me but nothing to complain about either. Not a ton of toppings, but enough to put together something good. The prices are fair - the pricing is based on the number of protein scoops you want, and includes 5 veggies with unlimited sauces and standard "sides" (which are really just more veggie toppings), which is enough that you probably won't need to add on extra and bump the price up, although there are premium options like the kale noodle base and masago that cost extra. The tofu bowl that I ordered was fresh and tasty. I ordered with the kale noodle base, and they were really good (pretty stuck together at first, though), but I'm skeptical of the $2 upcharge. Overall not the most memorable, but seems like a safe option for something quick, fresh, and healthy. The shop has kind of a sterile look, but it's clean and the staff is nice.

    Solid healthy options at this typical poke bar…read more I ordered their vegetarian poke bowl ($12.95 plus tax; which can be done vegan), which comes with tofu, and everything else is customized. I went with brown rice and salad leaves for the base, and added all sorts of toppings with a couple of sauces. The order was ready exactly when they said it would. Tasty enough, with fresh ingredients. There certainly was nothing remarkable about it, but it was a solid healthy option. Good spot for a casual grab n go meal made fresh.
