Poke Poke

Got delivery, so it’s not as aesthetically appealing. Very tasty poke bowl. Starting off with the purple rice, I have no idea why it’s purple or what it adds but it was good. Got three proteins: spicy tuna, salmon, and scallops and wasn’t a fan of the tuna. Also, got it spicy and they didn’t hold back on the heat. Crab salad, edamame, onions, cucumber, carrots, jalapeños, and beets all as expected. Picked radish was the best topping though. Both classic poke sauce and spicy mayo mixed in, hard to tell the true taste of them but they didn’t hurt the bowl. Finally, the tempura crunch and nori added a very nice crunch. Wish I got double tempura crunch, it was so good. Large bowl was super filling, and would recommend customizing it to meet your wants.

I really enjoyed this little restaurant right next to the Palmer Hotel. The staff was so friendly and treated me like a friend. I really appreciated that since it was my first time in Chicago and my first food experience here. I went for the hot ramen and it was incredible. The noodles were very yokey flavored and I love that. They even had different flavors of drink that I wasn’t use to and I enjoyed having unique options.

Words cannot express how delightful my poke bowl was. I was sitting in heaven and eating on a slice of cloud. The service was good, food was fresh, and I have to come back. Flavors just bursting in my mouth with every bite. Ugh. I wish they were closer to where I lived. Needless to say, they are worth the commute. Happy, am I.
