Awesome and definitely worth a stop and try, and then repeat!Small location but packs a big flavor. Helpful and attentive staff and amazing food.Asked for spicy and they did not disappoint, it was the spiciest poke I have had but some of the most delicious!

Delicious! I went there everyday for lunch for a week when I was in the area. My fave spot in all of North County. Their salmon is buttery and savory good. The portion size is huge. And former 49ers QB Jeff Garcia is a regular there. Theres always a line during lunch. This place wont disappoint.

* NEW UPDATE someone needs to train the employees that work on the weekend because they are giving skimpy portions. Im disappointed to say the least. I usually recommend this Poki to everyone but now Im not until things change.*The pictures below are how the portion they use to give.I like that its always clean and the employees are friendly. I recommend to try a Poki bowl because they are amazingly good.

Not my favorite poke, I mean they offer pretty much most of the ingredients in a regular poke place, BUT what I found crazy is that they charge for avocado which in most of the pokes Ive been they dont.Size is pretty decent I have to say!

Small bowl or large. I got the large. Sooo filling and absouletly delicious. I love the extra crunch the tempura bits give. Extra avocado! Soo good!

Really good poki chain. This one is better than the one in Escondido. Solid offerings - a little light on the sauces but overall great sizing and great meat. Good quick service and great staff.

There are 2 of these within a mile of each other. Both offer fresh, tasty poke bowls. The prices are not cheap, but the servings are generous. Service has always been friendly, professional, and quick.Will definitely go back.

Love that i could add as many toppings as i wanted without extra charge (except a few such as avocado are extra $). Really good sauces. Loved the eel sauce.

Wish they would stop changing how you order and update their website prices... they are way outdated!Through doordash the 4 scoop bowl says $18.95 but they force you to order a required 5th scoop for another $2 so the cheapest it can be is almost $21 (without add ons)! And this has been for months now... not just an app error. Plus they dont allow reorder option on doordash (which they use to), which is just annoying!

I ordered uber eats from here and had a good experience. The bowls are large and come with a ton of toppings. Also still a nice presentation even with to go bowls. The order came super quick as well - earlier than it estimated originally. Bowl was really good and had an awesome combination of flavors. The bowl was expensive but I got a good discount and for the price it was actually quite large so I was satisfied.

When we walked in it smelt like fish a little to strongly which had us worried. However, we were pleasantly surprised how good the poki was after our first bite. Very good and would return if in the neighborhood. Reasonable prices. Worth at least one visit.

I was in the area running some errands. Before heading back home, I offered to get lunch for me, my dad, and sister. For some reason I’ve been craving Poki and when I saw this place, I was like oh that is what I am going to get for lunch. I called to place my order, which was 3 bowls with the whole shibang. It was the my first time ordering from here, so I thought why not go all out. When I was ready to go pick up, I didn’t realize the one I called to place an order for was not the location I was thinking I was picking up from. I did not realize this mistake until the workers at the location I was at told me I called the other location. I was appalled. I was driving almost in circles trying to find this location. I had to park and call. Luckily, the location I called the worker was nice and understanding as I wasn’t the first person whose gotten confused with the locations. Despite that mix up, the food was delicious. I realized I forgot to ask for extra sauce as I was so frazzled about getting lost. However, getting the whole shibang there was enough flavor that extra sauce was not necessary if you didn’t have any. Additionally, the one bowl portion size was very filling. I had leftovers that was eaten over 2 days, and it was still good.This place is recommended if you’re craving some Poki.

I wasnt particularly impressed like others. It is a nice store and they have quality items and a large selection but its a bit overpriced probably because its located in the heart of Encinitas. The sushi bar is very popular among the locals and it can be a decent deal or very expensive depending on how and what you fill your bowl with because youre paying by weight. That was pre-covid so Im not sure what its like at this moment but based on other stores in the area that have returned to serve yourself salad bars it should be back open. Call first if you want to make certain.

I went here when the line to in n out was super long, happy it happened. For about $20 you get a ton of food, I had it for dinner and then lunch the next day. Pretty gas

First time trying Poki Poki yesterday with my brother. Definitely delicious. We weren’t a fan of the seared tuna though.

You guys are amazing. Someone from door dash decided to send someone to get my food from you guys even though I marked the box that said customer pick-up. No surprise, the f***** up. Thankfully, you guys are so sweet and remade my food with no problem. Whoever is working tonight (5/26/19) thank you so much. Youre awesome.

These guys are awesome. no sooner did I get my poke bowl into the car, i dropped everything and it spilled all over my car. they replaced my bowl free of charge. I love this place and this is just another reason why I keep coming back.

Pretty good poki bowls. Ingredients are fresh and the bowls have generous servings. They just rose their prices, making it pretty expensive, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Taste fresh and fast (relatively), $10 for a regular bowl with three proteins, a meal for the price of a single roll at a sushi bar. Ill be back.
