“Love this place great prices good food, but I hate the lady with the face piercings, nothing wrong with that just trying to point her out, she's rude and has terrible customer service and she clearly does not want to be there iv first time I went I ordered and left supper easy but she makes me feel like who the hell u think you are ya know?“
“The BEST poke in SD hands down! Their fish is super fresh and WOW love all the different flavor profiles - this isn't your standard run of the mill poke shop. The staff and owner were welcoming, attentive and kind. Tried 2 tuna and 1 salmon plate and added shrimp tempura. Can't wait to return!“
“Actual local-Hawaiian food can be pretty hard to find in SoCal, so this place is nothing short of a godsend. Laulau and all the various kinds of real poke! So happy to have found this place. The pork tonkatsu was a little salty for my taste, but no matter, I will be back to eat more of the other great things offered here.“
“First made the drive down to Blue Poke for a Yelp event, but came back a few times when I found myself in the area. There are a few other blue pokes that have since opened closer to central San Diego with one in North Park, but I think the quality varies from location to location- this location in National City being the best! First of all, the design of the store is so fun and I could tell it was clean and well maintained. I had a delicious poke bowl with my favorite spicy ahi (minced style). They have a good number of toppings to choose from along with great sauces. This is what I like to call "chipotle style" poke where you build your bowl, but everything was good! Easy parking to grab your bowl for take-out!“
“Amazing food and the service is great. Tried the spicy garlic edamame and the Islander Sampler to start. They were both perfect. The Sampler has empanadas that are so crispy on the outside and filled with chicken and rice ?. The teriyaki chicken wings had plenty of meat and really good sauce on them. There were also beef lumpia and shrimp patties, both cooked perfectly. For the main course, I got the Chamorro Combo. Uncle Franks pork ribs were so tender. The chicken kelaguen was ok. It was my first time trying it, and I think the rest of the dishes impressed me more. We got red rice and if you get that too ask for Finade sauce and pour that over the red rice. I went for the side salad instead of the mashed potatoes, and the dressing for the salad was great. Overall amazing food that I would highly recommend ? ?“
“Great place to eat. Made my own poke bowl. Fish was fresh and portion sizes were big. Though secluded in a small shopping area next to the seaport, you still get plenty of sunshine and sea breeze. Helps also that the staff is really friendly!“
“Cute restaurant with good vibes . They had a huge menu ! Delicious food, fair prices and generous portions . We had a larger party and everyone ordered different & all enjoyed . The service was attentive and kind, we will definitely be back !“
“Such a friendly and kind owner—he made my day with his kindness!! He prepared 12 meals for my coworkers and myself so efficiently, making all of them so well while working by himself. The poke is delicious and he experiments with new tasty recipes and flavors all the time! Highly recommend for a filling and healthy lunch.“
“I'm so addicted to the Torched Salmon Aburi bowl here. I add avocado and it's really worth it. They recently moved 2 stalls over in the Market on 8th food hall and share space with Cafe Indonesia now. Everything I've tried has been good and I keep wanting to try new things on the menu from them and from the Cafe Indonesia menu too, but it's very hard to not just keep ordering my usual.“
“I like the taste of the food. I have tasted them all and they're very good. customer service is good, take your order quickly and in less then 10 minutes your order is ready. I like their egg rolls, they are so fresh just made in house not frozen. Ambiance us quiet.“
“I loved my experience here. The food was excellent. I had the pineapple fried rice, the wagyo burger, and topped it off with the 7 layer chocolate cake. Emily was amazing, and the bartender made a killer pain killer. I will definitely be back, probably in a few hours lol“
“I am always satisfied when I come to this place. Food is always fresh and always good. The employees are very kind and greet every time you come in. I can't get enough of their Homemade lemonades, aside from the food, that's my one of my favorites.“
“Service was good. Prices were reasonable. Decor was fun. My teriyaki chicken with rice was good. My daughter ate all of her chicken teriyaki bowl. My wife’s teriyaki steak was burnt, though. We sent it back (they actually just left the first one at our table). The second one was almost as bad. The server noticed and took that dish off of our bill without us asking (which was nice). Stay away from the steak and you’ll be fine. We would go back, so please don’t take this as a negative review.“
