We ordered two medium poke bowls with thai iced tea via Doordash. Bowls were a bit on the smaller side but the protein and toppings all tasted fresh and delicious. Thai iced tea was good as well. read more

We were craving Poke and made a beeline over here. The parking lot in this strip mall / shopping center is huge, and it was easy to park. We walked over & were greeted cheerfully by the young employees working behind the counter. Some other reviewers mentioned that the service was meh, but I thought the three folks working were very helpful & sweet. We ordered a medium bowl & a large bowl. The medium bowl was pretty huge, so next time I'd probably get a small. I had the lava tuna, spicy tuna & shrimp over half rice & half salad. I appreciate that there is no upcharge for the first scoop of avocado! :) M. had the same as me with an extra scoop of spicy tuna. Our bowls were ready quickly & we brought them outside to enjoy. They were very fresh & flavorful. Yum! Prices were also reasonable for poke which we appreciate! On Mondays & Tuesdays they have BOGOs on some of their specialty drinks which is a sweet deal! So in sum, this place is great! If you enjoy poke bowls, check it out! Mahalo! read more

I'm so glad I found The Poke Co!! I was so hungry and I was in the area so I decided to give them a shot. The place is clean and big, they have a lot of tables and chairs inside and outside to enjoy your goods. They have a large selection of drinks and snacks as well. The service is pretty good, fast and friendly. Prices are fair! I really liked the spam musubis! read more

Solid portions and really hit the spot for me after a workout! tasted fresh and the staff was really nice. Would definitely go back!

The poke co is always a solid dinner spot- I didn't get poke this time but I do enjoy their spam misubis and their sukiyaki beef bowls. I took my items to go but it was fairly clean inside for anyone who wanted to sit. The staff here are always friendly and I picked up my order fairly quickly. The only thing that kind of sucks is they ran out of boba for the boba milk tea :( read more

The Poke Co - Milk Tea (Large) - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

I've ordered from Poke Co many times without any issues, but my recent Uber Eats order was a real disappointment. The white rice was surprisingly somehow only about 75% cooked--grainy and slightly crunchy. Since it was a quality issue, Uber Eats advised me to contact the restaurant directly. When I reached out, the manager immediately sent me back to Uber Eats, which ultimately after some back and forths offered just a $1.77 refund. The manager even mentioned in person that fixing the order would "cost too much" since it was "just a rice issue," which was surprising to hear. Quality issues happen, but the lack of accountability and customer care was the real problem. My wife and I ended up with a meal we couldn't eat and no support from the staff. Definitely not the level of service I've come to expect from a place I've enjoyed in the past. read more

The Poke Co never disappoints! They offer a huge variety of toppings, sauces, and mix-ins, so you can customize your bowl exactly how you like it. Everything always tastes fresh, the ingredients are high quality, and every bowl is delicious. The staff is friendly, the restaurant is clean, and it's one of my favorite places whenever I'm craving poke. Highly recommend! read more

Pretty decent poke with fresh ingredients! They're very generous with the portions and toppings seem to be infinite for the perfect poke bowl. read more

The Poke Co - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

I always prefer real authentic just fish and rice poke , but when I'm too lazy to make that drive or if If I want all the extra fixings , this suffices my poke craving . I don't think I'd pay full price , the only reason I do come is for their uber eats BOGO . So I get two bowls for the price of one which then makes it worth it ! Nothing to complain about taste wise . I do wish their to go sizes were bigger bc they only hold like 1ml of sauce . Other than that it's your average tasting poke place . read more

I am a huge fan of poke. I remember going to The Poke Co when they first opened and I really enjoyed it. I still go to The Poke Co regularly, as it is next to my usual nail salon. I do like a lot of things about their variety of toppings, but over the past couple of years, service has been more hit or miss. This is the typical type of poke restaurant (choose you size, your base, your protein, sauces and toppings). I remember when they first opened, the employees seemed much more interested in the product. They would talk to me about the toppings and gave me ideas of which sauces mixed well together. I also like the fact that they have chopped radish and beets, which most poke places don't have. The don't charge for avocado, and they do have masago. I think what I don't like as much now, is that the employees seem generally disinterested. Once, I had to tell someone how to make the bowl (I think she was new), and another time I had to ask for more fish, as they were not filling the scoops nearly full enough. Also, just last week, one of the employees had filled a small container with my chosen fish and accidentally spilled into the vegetarian option of protein. He did add more fish, as I was watching, but then just removed the fish from the soy protein, which somehow felt wrong knowing that the person wording the soy was likely vegetarian or vegan. Also, I had joined their rewards program, but I have never received a reward, nor do I have I been given any indication of when I may receive one. All in all, this is still a decent place, but it has gone downhill from what it used to be. read more

The Poke Co - Medium Poke Bowl (3 Scoops) - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

Purchased via uber eats and did their BOGO bowl free special. It's a good sized portion and pretty good. I'm sure it'll taste better in person and at the actual location, and next time probably do poke instead of teriyaki chicken. read more

My husband picked up two amazing poke bowls from here today. Everything was so fresh and tasted amazing!

Four choices of bowl size and a good variety of bases, proteins, toppings, and dressings. Once all your choices are in the bowl, bowl is overflowing. An overall satisfying meal. read more

I ordered 1 Extra Large Pokémon Bowl and none of the items that I requested came. No fish (Salmon) at all as indicated by the receipt. Uber Eats had a special buy one get 1 free and nothing. I will be following up with management on this and I will be visiting this store to see what kind of disgruntled employees work there. read more

Great service and great fresh Poki. Size to me was huge and more than enough to get you full n

Ordered The Poke Co online for takeout and didn't really experience the establishment itself. The serving was a good portion and the bowl was filled to the brim. The tuna was delicious and the highlight of the bowl. The sauce put in the bowl wasn't apparent and I had tried their signature sauce but really it added nothing and I found myself searching for sauce. So it made for an underwhelming experience. My husband did love his so take it for what you will. read more

Uninspired poke experience. May did not enjoy the fish. It all seemed like they used lower quality ingredients.

Amazing food and service!! I opted for everything that was on displayed and let me tell you: everything was so fresh from the protein to the toppings!! Needless to say, my belly was super happy!! read more

I had ordered through Uber Eats for pick up. They had a buy one small poke, get one free! It was around $25 for everything, such a great deal! I had ordered the spicy salmon and salmon poke bowl with white rice and spring salad mix, topped it with crunchy onion (so addicting), edamame and cucumber, spicy Mayo and Hawaiian island dressing. My co worker had the same order as mine. I had ordered a dessert but they ran out of it and asked if I wanted something else in replacement. I said sure, I'm happy they solved the issue with replacing it with another item. The small Portion was super packed and topped with goodies! Worth the money. They had a lot of smoothies and drinks to choose from. I have attached a menu. The restaurant was clean. They had a lot of seating inside and outside. I am definitely returning again. read more

Was visiting the area from up north and found this place. The parking lot wasn't empty but still a lot of places to park. The poke bowl tasted fresh, and had many ingredients to add that other places don't use where I'm from, which was great to taste and try. Service was friendly and not rushed. The place was empty but many online orders were being picked up. I would definitely come back here again. read more

Ordered UberEats delivery for lunch and it was pretty good. Our delivery driver made a few stops prior to ours and with us having a drink and poke, and not having consumed both immediately, I can't complain. There was a BOGO deal so it was worth it. Paid $24.90 pre-tax for 2 medium poke bowls and 2 milk teas, what a steal. The poke bowls had a bit too much sauce, although I did ask for a mixture of 4 LOL so that's my fault. I wanted to ensure it had good flavor and couldn't decide which sauces. For the proteins, I had 2 scoops of salmon and 1 scoop of octopus. The fish didn't take super fresh, nor terrible, but idk if the hour delivery played a role to that affect. The milk teas were watered a bit down, but I think it would've been just right if we had it right away. Would order again with the BOGO. read more

The portion was so small it is not worth the price. It was literally only about 3 shrimp peices, and they were half peices, super small amount of rice. read more

I've had good and bad experiences through delivery apps with this place, they always seem to have a BOGO bowl offer on postmates/uber eats so that's a plus. Unfortunately I have had issues with the quality/taste of things, ranging from suspicious tasting salmon to downright inedible spicy tuna from too much seasoning (i'm serious it had to be 90% black pepper). Overall i'd say meh. I enjoy the food but it's been a very 50/50 experience for me. (For reference i've ordered from here probably around 10-15 times) read more

I was in Mission Valley for a convention so I appreciated this option for lunch. I'm a poke fan so the Yelp reviews lured me here. You walk up to the counter and customize your bowl. I opted for a small with salmon over mixed greens. I grabbed some chopsticks and shook up my bowl(conveniently topped with a to-go lid). I enjoyed a leisurely lunch break in the outdoor patio under an umbrella. read more

The Poke Co - Lunch - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

Best poke in San Diego. Their ingredients are cold and fresh. Always feel good eating here. Staff is always realy nice when im being helped. I always enjoy eating inside when I go there. I always get the tuna, spicy tuna, salmon and shrimp. I get the taziki and poke co sauce and of course extra spicy mayo. You have to try their Vietnamese coffee its so good! 10/10 would drive 15 miles for it (because I do) read more

This was hands down the most disgusting dining experience I've ever had. The moment I walked in, I was hit with a nauseating stench of rotten fish -- like something had been dead in the walls for days. The place felt dirty, unkempt, and honestly unsanitary. The staff looked like they hated being there, and they treated customers like an inconvenience. No greeting, no smile, just pure attitude. One employee rolled their eyes when I asked a question -- unbelievable. I should've trusted my gut and walked out, but I stayed. Big mistake. After eating, I spent the night vomiting, shaking, and doubled over in pain. I ended up in urgent care with full-blown food poisoning. All from a poke bowl that was probably sitting out way too long or made with spoiled ingredients. If you care about your health, stay far away from this place. They have no business serving food to the public. I wouldn't wish that experience on anyone. read more

I ordered on DoorDash so maybe the experience could be different in store, but for a place that landed on https://sandiegomagazine.com/food-drink/poke-bowls-san-diego/ for their orange garlic scallop. That was the blandest scallops I've ever tasted. I received everything I ordered in the bowl and then some. I ended up with an extra two pieces of Tuna, hardly any masago, and over abundance of cucumbers, but guess what the avocado was spot on one scoop. Go figure The two Star was for the good spam musubi, but they came all stuff in one box so everything got stuck together. read more

The Poke Co - Order from DD - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

Middle of the road poke but with a touch of pizzaz. not sure what it is? the friendly service, the very well sized portions, or the quality? All of this adds up to a better than standard experience. I go pretty standard, rice, avocado, 2 scoops salmon, 1 scoop ahi, spicy mayo and maybe the hawaiian sauce. It is FILLING. Always require a nap afterwords. Good thing we come on Saturday's after my son's swim practice. Think the medium bowl is what I get and it runs maybe $13-14. Very well worth the price, wife says The Poke is better than San Diego Poke co down the road across from San Diego brew co. read more

The Poke Co - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

I frequently go to this Poke shop since 2022. When I lived in mission valley it was convenient but now it's on my way home from work. The Bowls here are good. Every time I've been the food has been fresh. Never had anything taste bad. I love their spicy mayo. I always ask for extra on my rice. I personally do not like wasabi but My boyfriend says they put a lot of wasabi on your bowl. However, I notice the wasabi I always on the edge of the bowl . There's only been one time since I've been going where they didn't have something available. They have Asian imported chips, milk teas, boba, fountain drinks and some canned/bottled drinks. The service is alright. Nothing that truly stands out about the employees . I've never had a bad experience but nothing is memorable. There's no connection between the employees and the customers. It's very quiet inside. They have about three or four tables inside but open shared patio. read more

Don't get me wrong, I usually love going to the Poke Co for lunch! It is more expensive compared to other places, but you do get a generous amount! The food is typically really fresh too! This particular review is for a online order I made recently. I decided to order ahead because it was a really busy for me. It was my mistake for not double checking the order before I left the store, but, I've never had an issue with this location, so I left with confidence. Big mistake! They actually got my order wrong! I had ordered it with salmon & spicy salmon but a majority of the order ended up being tuna? How do you even get that wrong? I also ordered a the chips with it. The chips have always came in a separate bag of it's own when I order. For some reason, they decided to put it in the container with the rest of the order! I had soggy chips and was soo disappointed! I went from looking forward to my bowl to just pure sadness. I'll still visit this location, however, I think I'm going to think twice about ordering ahead online. read more

The Poke Co - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

This poke shop has the BIGGEST scoops! Super super generous portions. But with that, their prices are a bit more expensive. On my last visit, I got a large bowl (5 scoops) which ended up being $19 after tax. I think it's worth it because this large bowl definitely counts as 2 meals for me! I got full off of 1/2 of a large bowl. The staff even gave me an extra empty bowl bc it was overflowing! Next time, i'd be happy with a regular bowl of 3 scoops. I usually get salmon and spicy tuna, which tasted great here. I thought their spicy tuna was a bit more spicy and more peppery than typical. I also like their variety in sauces, I got their OG (orangey garlic) sauce. They are super generous with their toppings too! Definitely recommend getting crispy onions and seaweed salad. Overall, this is a great stop for poke in Mission Valley! I will definitely return! read more

Close to home, easy ordering, convenient and consistent. Fast service and responsive service too.

This place is okay. They skimp out on the rice and add way too much sauce. My bowl ended up being soggy, almost like eating cereal. Service was okay. Paid for a boba drink that they didn't have at the moment, so I ordered a strawberry tea. They gave me the wrong drink. I didn't want to make a fuss so I just went ahead and left. There are other great poke shops around, however I didn't want to drive too far. read more

One of my favorite poke chains here in San Diego! Lots of variety of seafood, toppings, sauces, and you can even buy boba! Their milk teas aren't my favorite but their fruit teas are pretty decent. The service here is ok, I been to the one in Mira Mesa and the workers there are nicer. I just came here a few weeks ago and noticed they raised their prices. Probably due to the price of seafood. read more

Not sure why the ratings are so bad tbh! I really like this place! most affordable yummy poke around SD I think. The small is only $14 something and you get a pretty big portion of fish! I'm a salmon snob but I fuck heavy with their salmon! So fresh and good! Be careful they oversauce it here. Only poke place that doesn't charge extra for avocado. And they have boba!??? Name another place where you can a good sized poke bowl AND a boba drink for 20$ I'll wait.... Yeah exactly read more

The Poke Co - Small Poke Bowl (2 Scoops) - Poke Near Me - San Diego, California

I've eaten here in the past and remembered it being subpar to just okay. I happened to be in the area and was craving poke, so I checked it out again. Walked in and walked right out based on the smell alone. There is no way that food from a store that reeks like that could possibly be good. Looking at the health violations reported at this location (based on what was presented on yelp in March 2025), this seems to make sense: Standard not met: Proper hot & cold holding temperatures Standard not met: Hands clean & properly washed; gloves used properly Standard not met: Approved thawing methods used, frozen food Standard not met: Nonfood contact surfaces clean Not what you want to see from a place that sells raw fish. It looks like complaints about the smell have been ongoing for over 5 years. I would highly recommend against this place. read more
