    I ordered a small bowl to share; the portions were generous, and the price was fair. I have been here a number of times before this, and it's consistently fresh and tasty! It is a solid poke place.

    This place doesn't make bowls, they make art! I frequent this spot almost weekly because it's so delicious and quick. The staff operates so fast and efficiently. The only down side is parking but take a friend and keep them in the car or there's street and garage parking nearby.

    I love poke salad bar. It's my favorite place to get poke and I'm sad that I don't live that close to it anymore. All of the seafood and toppings here are fresh and the prices are really affordable considering how much you get from each bowl! I get the medium bowl always for $16.99 and it comes with 3 choices of protein. The seared albacore is my favorite and you can never go wrong with spicy tuna and shrimp. I like how crab meat is not extra either. I know some places count that as a protein. Toppings are all yummy. They give a lot of everything and don't skimp out on portion! Don't forget, if you check in on Yelp, they'll even throw in a free miso soup. The one thing that I dislike about this place is the location. Parking is hard to find around here, but there is a close by parking structure that charges only $1 for 2 hour parking. Most of the time, there's open spaces, but I would avoid weekends. I always have a good experience every time I come here. Poke salad bar will always have a special place in my heart. Already looking forward to the next time I stop by!

    The poke here is so delicious! I'm not usually a big fan of poke, but my friend recommended this place so I wanted to give it a chance. I got a small bowl with white rice & spicy tuna, with various toppings. What I really loved about it was that you can choose if you want your fish mixed up with the toppings & sauces, or have them drizzled on top / on the side. I opted to have mine mixed in and it was perfect! The house sauce & spicy mayo are full of flavor and the tuna itself tasted very fresh, as did all of the other ingredients. I absolutely love krab salad and they are quite generous with theirs. I also got a passionfruit juice that was very yummy. I'd definitely recommend this spot if you're near Old Town and craving some poke or sushi!
