The Lowkey Poke Joint

I like that it wasn't super crowded when we came (a Friday afternoon). The inside is clean and there are alot of options. The prices differ from what they have online, a large bowl is $17.95. That does give you 5 scoops of protein but be mindful, they dont go by scoops in reality, they go by weight. My friend got salmon and shrimp and not only was it only 5 little shrimp for the scoop, after doing the scoops, the attendant weighed the bowl and took some of her salmon out. Why say you do 5 scoops when you don't? There is a lot of rice in the bowl that isnt portioned compared to the protein in my opinion. The rice wouldn't be a big deal, but they sauce the protein and put it on top of the rice, so its not enough sauce in the bowl and they charge for extra (.50 c each for a small container). They give a small amount of the extra toppings too, even though there is a good amount of options. It's like they only want to give you just enough so you feel awkward to ask for a little more. I love that they had crushed hot cheetos for the top though. I also got the deep fried salmon belly ($8) and that was a treat, but again not enough sauces. They give you a big portion of salmon and one sauce. The flavors were great overall and I would return again but I hope it's a different experience. Online they said there was happy hour at 3 and there was no sign or mention of it in the store. I also like the idea of the monitors with pictures and the menu, but all items here are not listed and I did not like that. I wanted a drink at the end and since I couldn't find the prices I went without. I had to ask for a receipt, I guess the cashier assumed I did not want one and when the amount sounded off, and I asked for an itemized receipt, she said she couldn't print it, so I got one texted to me. Overall I did enjoy the food quite a bit but the experience is what got me not giving this a 5 star.

Great service and good food. I tried the cauliflower and salmon belly. Both were yummy. I felt like I got a good value out of my poke bowl. I would like to try a drink and something else the next time I go.

I hate doing this but it’s a low key pass. When I decide to visit a new poke place, I’m excited and I’m routing for you. Not today.

The place had several customers. It has positive vibes and tunes playing. There is even a bar. A definite plus. The mixture of flavors didn’t do it for me. I had to spit out one bite of tuna because of the low quality cut. The shrimp were okay. I love rice, seriously love it. I couldn’t even finish the rice. They don’t have eel sauce. They do have some trendy new toppings like Cheetos and flaming hot Cheetos for toppings. They also have several fish options that many places can’t offer.

My lack of satisfaction could have been my choices, I guess. It’s strange though because I know my way around a poke bowl. Keep it simple here. Don’t go overboard with the topping choices. Maybe try the salmon. I got the ahi tuna and shrimp today. Other people seem to enjoy it and the 4.5 Google rating caught my eye. Everyone was friendly and very helpful. The restaurant was clean and seemed to be managed well.

The image is what I left and did not consume. Too expensive for this outcome.

Good poke joint with friendly staff.

The poke burritos were interesting but a bit difficult to eat compared to a normal bowl. Spicy Cheetos on the outside definitely made for a nice texture and flavor though!

Shrimp pasta was good but basically like garlic noodles. Wish they had the uni pasta as that's why we came but they didn't have uni in stock.

Went on a Wednesday afternoon, was not too crowded and was easy to order. Got a poke bowl special, so no having to guess what to put together in a bowl. My partner doesn’t do too much poke or fresh sushi and even he enjoyed his bowl!

Hands down my fav poke place in the north Dallas area. Many high quality toppings to choose from, they load up your bowls, and their unique bootea rice is tasty. They also offer many high end foot items like an uni pasta and garlic parm truffle fries. Nothing low key about this place 💪

We got the regular bowl with bootea rice which has a nice unique green tea flavor, not very overpowering and goes well with the fish. They have a lot of unique toppings and sauces that you don’t usually see at at other poke places. The toppings were in good quantity and variety and made the bowl a little better.
Although for a regular bowl we had 3 scoops of protein, I noticed that they were not very generous with the scoops, especially the shrimp. That was a bit of a bummer. I love myself a loaded protein bowl. The rice proportion was a bit much in comparison to the proteins and sauces, making the bowl a little dry towards the end. The crab salad was not very fresh.
Overall a good-ish experience, good vibe, ambiance, music and food for the price.
I may try something else here but maybe not the poke

I wandered into this place because I was inteh neighborhood, hungry, and on a time schedule. ALL the staff was super friendly with everyone walking in, checking out, throwing away things, getting togo things, leaving, everything.
The person that helped explain all the options to me, let me custom my bowl. Even to the point of halving the sauces. They are willing to cook the fish if so desired. The have a wide array of veggies to add, extras, and dry toppings. The bowl was great! It all tasted fresh, clean, and the way described.
The staff members paid attention to the person they were helping. The establishment was clean and well kept. The vibe was definitely "low key" and casual. Can't wait to wind up back in that neighborhood!

(Sorry, tried a few bites before taking a pic..so good!)
