Poki Bowl - Menifee

This place would get 100 stars if I could give them that! Shout out to the staff members Ruth, Neve, and Zya. You got to read this review and visit this place. First of all, this place is brand new. Upon arrival, I walked in and noticed how spotless clean it was. I visited with my family and during times of Covid, it is hard to find restaurants that look trustworthy. The floors were shining, the bathroom was clean and sanitized, the kitchen line was clean with no crosscontamination across the foods, and you could even see the back dishes stacked, and the dish machine and sink was stainless (which is rare if you have worked in kitchens). The staff automatically put gloves on which is awesome because a lotof times chain workers will pick up mixing utensils without gloves. They greeted us as soon as we walked in and even laughed out of joy when I commented on the cleanliness of the facility. The girls were super polite to my parents, which Iappreciated because they can get picky and indecisive. They explained the options and the process of building our bowl. They even went over ingredients in the items and it was cool that they explained how they mix the sauces to getdifferent spice levels (mild, medium and spicy) before they asked us which spice level we were interested in. They were very welcoming and inviting and I recommend this for a quick option for any family who enjoys sushi. I liked how thegirls changed their gloves when mixing my bowl from my parents because they ordered differently from me. This is comforting since raw seafood can very easily make you sick. I liked how they had a tofu and lots of veggie options for thosewho aren?t quite keen to a sushi flavor. I even commented to their team that I was impressed with their attitude and workmanship together.They were happy to be at work, which is rare in 2022. They looked like young college students whogenuinely were trying their hardest to shine their new company. They even spoke well of their employer

The business was very clean which I appreciated and the food was fresh. A little bit pricey all things considered, but that?s okay. What I didn?t necessarily appreciate was the attitudes of those working there. Maybe it was the day I went, or the employees I interacted with, but I?ve never seen people look like they hated their job or helping customers more than those three there that day. Overall, good bowls, bad service. Response: It was a Saturday afternoon around 2pm.June 18th.

The owner Ralph has hugh potential as he will have a liquor license coming up...the food is addictive as this is a must try restaurant.

I've been to a lot of poke places. This is a familiar setup, think Chipotle. You go down the line choosing rice/salad, meat and toppings. Overall it was good, fresh fish. I rate it 4 stars because the amount of fish given was much less than any poke places I've been, it's a bit unfortunate for the $15 price of a regular bowl. The upside is they don't charge for avocado and in a strange twist they do change $1 extra for edamame.

The owner was extremely nice and packed my bowl full of everything I asked for. There was an extra charge for edamame but for the place only being open for a short time it was extremely pleasant. Good staff and good food. I would recommend going here
