Reviews for Poketo in Merrick, NY
So TLDR: it?s ok if that?s what you craving but don?t expect a lot of the good stuff? see below for details. Got a custom bowl.... Issue one, there was a ton of ginger in there which I didn?t ask for and absolutely hate. Issue two, the good stuff, like theprotein was a not a large quantity, which the cheap stuff like edamame and corn was way heavy handed. Issue three, not enoughsauce despite asking twice for more sauce. Issue 4, barely any nori or crisps despite asking for more. Issue 5, menu sayscrabmeat not artificial crabmeat, which is what they gave. If I had known it?s fake crabmeat, I wouldn?t have orderedthat. Overall, versus the price, it?s so-so. With the taste and specific quantities of ingredients, it?s a no for me. I?drather go to other poke places and unlikely I will try again Read more
One of our go-to takeout places when we don't have time to cook. Very fresh ingredients, generous portions, and good pre-set... options or the ability to build your own bowl. We have both ordered ahead and used the dry erase sheets at the front - whilethere's always consistently someone else coming or going when we are, it's never so packed that you can't just stop in and getit made while you wait.

Poketo is an amazing spot! Everything on the menu is freshly made to your liking with numerous options to pick from. Really is... for anyone, vegetarian, vegan, or a meat eater. I love to try different mixes. Great staff and atmosphere! Read more
Amazing food, amazing service! Perfect place to come after an afternoon at Jones Beach. Delicious, healthy, and high-quality!
The food tastes really good! But they have raised their prices and they are giving smaller portions of everything now; toppings... included. The girl behind the counter doesn't even fill up the bowl.. so I'm paying more for a bigger size that isn't evenfull. Before they raised the price I used to get bowels that were actually full. While I was on the line waiting, I kepthearing the customer before me ask for more stuff and I was wondering why. It was almost every item he was asking for more. When she got to my order ---it made sense. The good still tastes great, but if you are going to increase your prices and giveless food on top of that.. what is the point? Anytime I asked for more of anything she literally counted what she gave me orsaid I already gave you it. They don't even fill up the serving spoon. Such a disappointment. Will have to venture out to seeif there's another place near by. Read more
