"I absolutely loved my experience at this poke bowl spot! The quality of the ingredients is top-notch-everything is fresh, flavorful, & perfectly portioned. Highly recommend it to anyone who loves fresh, high-quality poke!"
J'ai finalement eu la chance de visiter ce resto récemment & j'ai été très très très satisfait. J'ai commandé l'île général poulet à emporter & c'était délicieux. Le poulet était très bien cuit & croustillant à la perfection, & j'ai demandé de la mayo épicée comme sauce & c'était vraiment la combinaison parfaite pour moi. & tout le reste du bol était super, le riz bien cuit, & les légumes étaient bons aussi. Je le recommande fortement à tous ceux qui recherchent un bon repas copieux qui vous laisserait rassasié & très satisfait. Dans l'ensemble, c'était une expérience 5/5 avec la bouffe & le service. Merci encore & à la prochaine!
The karaage chicken was more like popcorn chicken but was pretty good. The takoyaki & tempura shrimp were okay. The Pacific coast poke would have been good if the rice wasn't overcooked to the point of brown & crispy at the bottom. Also way too many edamame compared to other vegetables.

You feel the energy as you walk in, great ambience. Counter is clean, dining area is calm & vibe is cozy. Food is very fresh & the portions are beyond generous. You don't feel heavy or bloated after eating. For those watching their weight & micro consumption I highly recommend getting a bowl! Good for pre hike or post gym. Menu also extends to bubble teas as well if you want to treat yourself. Cheers
Great service & taste! Ideal place to go for a quick poke lunch. I love their Tuna or Salmon bowl. I would highly recommend adding the spicy teriyaki & their sesame sauce. It hits the spot beautifully. Never had a single issue with the service, they super quick so the orders fly by. A nice little quaint spot in mile end.
We enjoyed a very large & satisfying poké bowl absolutely packed to the brim with delicious ingredients (we couldn't finish it in one sitting). There are many options of both bowls & appetizers to cover any taste, & you can wash it down with an equally long list of great bubble teas or slushies. You can enjoy all this until 3 a.m., which is great for your late-night poké cravings. Oh, & we love the shark logo 🦈
Do not order on Uber, the descriptions are incorrect. The tofu bowl was missing multiple toppings that are included per the description (avocado, fried onions, lettuce, nori), missing an extra topping I paid for, & also contrary to the description, the tofu is not fried.
