Poke Island earns praise for fresh ingredients, generous portions, and friendly staff, with many diners calling it the best poke in town and a reliable option for takeout or delivery. The menu offers extensive customization, a variety of toppings, and appealing drinks like boba and a ube latte, all set in a warm, beachy atmosphere. While most reviews celebrate consistency and value, some visits note occasional issues such as items being out of stock, substitutions needed, or variability in portions and flavor balance, including undercooked rice or a milder spicy mayo. Taken together, it feels like a standout spot for flavorful, vibrant poke bowls that satisfy different dietary preferences and budgets, with many guests eager to return.
I've only ordered from this place through food delivery apps, which I don't usually do if I haven't eaten there before, but I just want to shout out this business because the quality of their poke bowls is amazing. Since that first time i always go for them for pokes.
The quality of the ingredients, the ratios, the flavor, & the way the chicken is cooked - I absolutely loved it!! I really recommend this place, definitely the best poke I've tried in mtl! & the cute detail on the bag doesn't go unnoticed :)
Honnêtement déçu au vu des bons commentaires. J'ai eu un Poke qui était fait avec des avocats presque plus bon ou ouverts depuis longtemps (évident au goût). Les morceaux de saumon venaient avec la partie foncée (vraiment pas bon) qui est enlevée habituellement dans les Poke ou sushis.
Le reste était pas mauvais mais l'avocat & le saumon étant les ingrédients les plus importants, c'était vraiment décevant.
Delivery order - approximately 600g poke bowl x 2.
First issue: you don't follow your own customization options. Ingredients were added that I did not select, seemingly just to fill the bowl. That's not how a proper BOGO offering should be handled.
As for the poke itself, nothing really stands out. The flavors don't come together - it doesn't'marry' in the mouth the way a well-made poke should.
That said, it's not the worst I've had, so I'll give it 3 stars.
Really nice atmosphere , amazing food ,
Hassan & Arima really made me feel at home , they are extremely kind & professional , they deserve raises , amazing place !!!
I tried a lot of poke's & I must say this one is the best. Everything is fresh. I also used to hate boba tea but when I tried it here I loved it! Definitely recommend if you hesitate!
Every time I visit Montreal I make it my mission to get Poke Island. It's 100% the best poke in town. The portions are also very generous! Their staff are the nicest people as well, very helpful when I don't know what to get. I can't wait to go back & try more items!
cute place in mile end! The poke bowls are so fresh & yummy & im addicted to their boba too 🧋shoutout to Harry for being so understanding when I made a mistake in ordering ☺?
Franchement, excellente surprise. Les poké bowls sont super frais, les ingrédients sont de très grande qualité & on sent que tout est préparé avec soin. Les quantités sont vraiment généreuses, on ressort rassasié sans se sentir lourd. Les saveurs sont bien équilibrées & le poisson est impeccable.
Honnêtement, c'est une adresse que je recommande sans hésiter si vous cherchez un poké bowl frais, bon & qualitatif. Je reviendrai, c'est sûr.Franchement, excellente surprise.
