Reviews for Poke-Poke in Austin, TX
Hard to get good poke on the mainland but Poke-Poke does a pretty good job. Looking to get a fix, my boyfriend and I headed here... without expectations. Walking into the store, there's a very off-putting smell, like bleach or something. But we ordered anyway,I got a little spicy tuna and my boyfriend got a big spicy tuna. We both got various toppings and I got a can of pass-o-guava,with tip all that came to about $38. We thought the portions of fish were huge! Full of flavor and very spicy. I thought therice wasn't the best but still it was overall very yummy! Definitely satisfies our cravings when away from Hawaii. Read more
I eat here about once a week. Service, the crew is always extremely friendly and helpful with recommendations. Food, fresh! If... you like spicy, JT all day. Read more
With their 4.5 rating, I must have caught them on a bad day. The fish was good, but not super.. a little mushy even? I'm sure I... caught them on an off day and will be going back to give it another try, but I went with two other people and we were allunderwhelmed. Service was excellent and the food came out fast.

Excellent poke. I?m surprised it wasn?t busier during lunch. Hardly a wait. And the guy running the cashier may have been the... friendliest restaurant cashier I?ve ever met. Super happy with my first poke bowl here. Read more
Friendly attentive service, fast, tasty, and fresh! Everything you'd want in a poke restaurant. We've been here twice and... wouldn't hesitate to come again and recommend this place to friends. Half of our family is vegetarian and there are plenty ofoptions for us! It's a delicious, healthy option and I wish there was one closer to us in San Antonio! Read more
Poke poke was ok ? ok. Duped by the hundreds of positive reviews, I stepped in this establishment expecting the mouth watering... burst of flavors that TRUE poke offers where Crunchy and Spicy meets Sweet yet Savory. Where each bite is a different flavor offish or seaweed or tobiko. All of this jam packed on a LARGE helping of sticky rice. This was not the case. I was given a samplesized, calorie counting portion of a heavily salted mess. I couldn?t taste the individual flavors. Just salt. The only thingsaltier was my husband after spending $45 on such a disappointing meal. I couldn?t even finish it. Read more
We came here after visiting Austin and really enjoyed the food. It was a little different poke place than we are used to and we... found the menu a little confusing so we just ordered the same thing for all of us. The salmon sushi was pretty fresh and all ofus really enjoyed it. You do get a very good portion of sushi with the meal so we were all very pleased and full. The ?only?reason I did not give this place 5 stars is because the server gave our food without gloves on and his thumb was literallytouching the sushi. I did not say anything to my family and ignored it but it did bother me. Other than that, we reallyenjoyed this place for a quick stop before leaving Austin. Read more
Super friendly, fast, generous portions, and good recipes/topping options. Unfortunately the place smelled really fishy and the... fish was a strange texture. This place was highly recommended by a friend though, so maybe it was just an off day Read more
