Reviews for Tidal Poke Co. (Downtown) in Jersey City, NJ

The first I ordered lunch, it?s good. But this time as dinner, it?s awful. Disappointing. Disaster. The food is not well... prepared. The salmon doesn?t taste fresh, in dark color. The rice is like wet stone with sauce dried up on. I would never orderthis again. Read more

Been here twice for their açaí bowl and did not disappoint. Everything was delicious! My main recommendation is for them to... tidy the place up a bit. The tables and chairs inside were awkwardly all placed against the wall which made it very uninvitingto sit. It was a gorgeous Saturday and even though they have reserved outdoor space there were no tables put out. Their bulkydelivery bike was also inside the restaurant and was the first thing you saw as you walked in. This place has prime JC locationand I think could it could really flourish with some extra care. Read more

Got spicy salmon over brown rice from here and was delicious. Fresh mango was a nice add in along with Kani salad.

They aren?t what they used to be! I used to love their poke and I?ve brought several friends here and had family try and love... also, but unfortunately they have changed the bowls to a smaller size so you?re paying more for less, the asian girl workingthere didn?t have the best attitude and added very little toppings, especially with the salmon? this used to be my go-to spotbecause it was tasty and they were generous with the toppings and rice, but now the bowls are smaller and it isn?t worth theprice (she even added very little sauce!) I don?t usually write reviews but i feel really let down because this place used tobe a good spot like a year ago.. I?ve attached a picture below of one of the bowls from last year, when it used to be good. Ifthey are going to make the bowls smaller they should at least lower the prices too! The rice had very hard bits in it thatseemed to be dried up, I?m not sure how that happened but it was annoying to have to keep picking out dried up hard rice pebbledwhile I?m trying to eat, I?ve never had a bad experience with their poke before so maybe it?s the new people preparing it, It?sa shame because i probably won?t be back after experiencing this and they used to be one of my favorite spots! Poke is fairlyeasy to make at home but this was a good spot for convenience and whenever you just want to save time i guess I?ll only bemaking them at home from now on Read more

The service is good and the place is very clean, you can sense the hard work and effort they put into the place. I mainly had... the Spicy Salmon with random edamame and other crunchies. If you like rice and fish, then this is a good place to go. Theingredients are fresh. The only beef I have is the rice was hard, like they left it out to dry, technically not a of lot ofwater added... I still give five star, becuase my issue is a preference, so its not fair to deduct stars for that, as I prefersoft sushi rice with my rice bowls. Overall, good food and service. Read more

BEST POKE BOWL SPOT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD! -Yes, I finally had my hands on their poke bowl and it was YUMMALICIOUS!!! I was... always hesitant to try poke bowl, but after trying it for the first time at Tidal Poke I was happy that I waited to have it atthe right place. FRESH, HEALTHY and TASTY! My taste buds were in heaven. It's something that one should not miss having if theylive in Jersey city or visiting JC. Not just for Poke bowl, do try their Smoothies and Smoothie bowl, you will not regretit. Best one is - ACAI! Every item in the menu is fresh and healthy and absolutely tasty. Do try. It's worth every penny! Read more

Great place that?s worth the price. The aesthetic is cute and the staff are friendly. It?s a great spot to go to in the Downtown... Grove St. area. They have a unique variety of proteins from regular to spicy to even marinated and they all taste great. There?salso unlimited toppings which is great for people like me who just wanna try everything. The fish tastes fresh, not frozen andthe staff seem to keep everything clean and sanitary. Read more

Poke bowels are a personal favorite of mine but only when a place can make it properly. I was in the area for some quick food... and always stop by the top rated places in the area to get the feel of the town; this is how I landed at this greatrestaurant. The portion size is not too big and not to small. The importance of a meal of this kind is the ratio of meat andfilling to the amount of rice. This place does it perfectly. The sauces used are amazing, the spicy shoyu sauce was not toospicy, it had the right amount of kick. Would go to again if I'm in the area. Read more
