Customer Reviews
The size of the bowl is small. The charge $1.00 extra for crab meat. The toppings selection are limited. If you want avocado is also $1.00 extra. I order the large with included 4 meat. But if you want yellow tail you will also pay extra. The price for the bowl was $20.64. because I requested crab meat and no drink. The wonton as a topping taste great.
I was really disappointed with the portion sizes here. The staff seemed to be counting individual pieces instead of giving a proper scoop. For the price you’re paying, you expect a reasonable serving — not a bowl that feels mostly like air. The food itself is fine, but the portions don’t match the cost. This wasn't an issue a while back but this has been happening too frequently and it's unacceptable in my opinion.
One of the best poke places I've ever eaten at. The fish is very fresh and the bowls are hearty in size. I ordered delivery three times and forgot to take pictures because it looked so good. So all you get on this one is an empty bowl from a satisfied customer. The avocado was really good every time. Update. This place is so good that I had it one more time before I left San Diego. I managed to get a picture halfway through my meal.
Be aware if you have been here before, Blue Poke have changed the size of their bowls. While I don’t know by how much but the new black plastic bowls (not eco friendly at all) look to be 20-30% smaller than before. Interesting way to cut costs without raising prices. I walked out when I saw how much less I would receive for my $. I guess it’s back to Poke 1/2 even though it is further away.
The food quality and taste is amazing! The service could be better but it's nothing that takes away from the experience. The atmosphere is great until you realize their water station has no ice and the tea/agua fresca dispenser is either dirty or the beverages are old.
