Stepped into this gem for the first time and was blown away by the vibrant, fresh flavors! Crafting my own bowl was a delight, with every ingredient tasting like it was picked and prepared just for me. The homemade kimchi and sauces added a kick of authenticity that you just don't get everywhere. It was the perfect meal I didn't know I needed. Can't wait to go back and explore more combinations!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian options

It was our first stop when we got into buffalo, we're from outta town. We ended up paying $80 which threw a wrench in our plans but that's on us.The lobster roll was disappointing and chewy ? the oysters were fresh and okayBut the poke bowl was loaded with sauce, like drowned in sauce, we didn't like it at all.Again Personal preference, the staff was very helpful and friendly. We just didn't expect to pay this much for lunch

Food, atmosphere, service 10/10! Lou and Summer provided service that makes you feel right at home! The food was fresh and delicious! The oysters were amazing! Make sure you try the $6 Prosecco on-tap! Amazing environment for a casual yet elevated dinner- great wine and cocktail selections at the bar! Fun and innovative food specials! I could go on forever because the service, ambiance, and food were truly unmatched!

If it's Saturday I'm usually sitting at the bar drinking proseco on tap and eating anything from oysters Rockefeller to Lobster rolls to clam chowder to poke nachos to a poke bowl, capped off with a rice crispy treat. The atmosphere is great, the food is delicious but the staff have become framily. If you want to eat and drink well in an environment where everyone is warmly welcomed, this is the place.

I don’t even know where to start, my family and I LOVE Fresh Catch. We go there for our weekly happy hour and are never, ever disappointed. The drinks and cocktails are creative and delicious, the food is fresh and flavorful (the fresh oysters are our favorite), and the atmosphere is super chill and fun. Our favorite part about Fresh Catch has to be the amazing staff that work there. Summer, Jackie, and Sophie are some of the kindest people I have ever met! They always take time to make sure we are having the best time, especially our son who absolutely loves them all. 15/10 can’t recommend this place enough!

I lived in Hawaii for 7 years, and this is the place that gets it the closest out of the other places I’ve tried. Very, very good.

Stopped in for dinner before a show at Babeville. Walking in the door, we were hit in the face with the STRONG odor of (not fresh) fish. There was one couple in front of us ordering and three employees working in the store. Only the one who waited on us acknowledged us, while the other did online orders(?). Took at least 10 min to get service. Friend had Flaming Tuna bowl as listed and was served the dregs of sauce and bits of tuna left in the container, not a full serving of protein. When he questioned it, server argued he was given a full serving, then added a few pieces of fresh cut tuna because the spicy tuna was empty. I had the Bubba bowl as listed. It was fine but the freshness of some of the fake crab used was questionable. The bowls are over sauced for sure. Not the best or even good poke poke. It was adequate (served with a side of underlying worry about food safety). Food cases were an unappealing dirty mess, water station dispenses water that tastes like machine and misery, store feels not clean, fabric seating is stained and gross, rap station was extra loud and more suited to the after-hours clean up crew. Dined in and left as quickly as possible at 6:40pm. Met a disappointed couple at the door trying to get in which was already locked. Posted sign stated the store was closing at 7 due to Bills game. That couple got lucky and went somewhere else to eat. You should too.

Fresh Catch was great! We came in from out of town and it's a short walk from the hotel. It's bright and clean and the food was delicious! I thought the prices and quality were great. I ordered the Flaming Tuna and it was exactly what I wanted. The miso soup was cooked hot for us and brought to the table. We also got an acai bowl to-go which was also delicious.Service was wonderful, friendly people who gave us suggestions and smiles.10/10, definitely would go again.

It’s pretty expensive but out of the limited options for poke in buffalo this is probably one of the better places
