Poke House - Santa Cruz

This was my first time visiting Poke House and it was a great experience and a interesting concept. They have all ingredients easily accessible and nicely displayed, also very helpful to answer my newbie questions. The portion size was fantastic, if I lived nearby I would've had leftovers. Both orders were the Tuna rice poke bowl with avocado added as an extra, and 1 had octopus added as more protein. Food was delicious we will return soon. On a side note a watercontainer with ice in it was provided for self serve water in paper cups.

Visited on 5/10/2020. For $17, the portion is really small. Not sure if it?s because there?s only about 10 leafs as ?mixed green salad? as base. They were out of zucchini noodles and when I picked up my take out order, I realized the bowl was only about 75% full (which does not like their other photos suggest at all. Also the portion for sides are small as well considering I ordered a LARGE bowl. I?ve been to other poke house locations it this by far the first time I had adisappointing /inconsistent experience.

This poke was delicious. The salmon was very fresh and the tuna was very yummy. The staff were super friendly and seemed excited to be there for some reason.

Not sure what happened. We had take out for dinner on Sept 30. The salmon smelled rancid and tasted bad. We had to throw it out. The tuna was OK. Somehow we got more rice and less topic than usual. Not a good experience.

Loved all the options I had, and everything was so delicious. I got the smaller size bowl and it was absolutely more than enough to fill me up. The fish was nice and spicy and delicious and fresh, and I could customize it any way I see fit.
