Frequently asked questions about Pokéworks
Pokéworks Brooklyn Reviews
The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The business is clean and the decor adds a nice scenery. This new location is nice but needs to compete with many other restaurants and food vendors around this area. Parking is not easy to find but it's possible, if your patient. If you like sushi, then this is about that same route. It does have it's difference with taste, ingredients and sauces but the raw fish is the same. I will add, the portions are very filling. I really give them a 4 1/2 star rating. Only because for me, it takes a little getting use to.
Delicious and amazing!! Their spam musubi is literally my favorite and might be my new go-to! Michael provided great service and was very patient when I was looking at the toppings to add to my bowl. I appreciate his recommendations! They were very helpful :) I would definitely recommend Pokeworks to anyone looking to eat a delicious bowl for lunch or after work! :)
Pokeworks is one of those neighborhood spots that quietly gets everything right. The ingredients are consistently super fresh, which makes a huge difference when it comes to poke. It’s the perfect place for a quick, satisfying lunch—there’s usually no wait, and the whole experience feels easy and efficient. On top of that, the staff is always genuinely friendly and welcoming, which keeps me coming back. Reliable, fresh, and exactly what you want from a local lunch go-to.
Just went to this location after a long time of living nearby. The spicy ahi tuna bowl is excellent (though note it’s not particularly spicy), with clearly fresh ingredients and lots of ingredients like crispy onion to give it a nice flavor bump. The highlight, though, was the service from one of the employees, who was just very kind and attentive, even in the middle of the dinner rush. I used ClassPass credits (great perk) and she led me through how that works—showing your code to them and they make it when you get there. Anyways, great experience.
I love this location! And Gian is the absolute best, speedy service and always brings the good vibes. With all these expensive restaurants opening up in the neighborhood, it's nice to have a reliable and affordable lunch option. Plus the ingredients are always on point, good selection and always fresh.
I come here all the time and I absolutely love this place! The poke is always so good and feels really fresh. The restaurant is clean, and has a great atmosphere for a quick lunch or casual dinner. Special shoutout to Patricia - she’s amazing! Super friendly, attentive, and her positive energy make the whole experience even better!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “I’ve tried a lot of poke places, but Pokeworks always hits the spot. The fish is fresh, the toppings are generous, and I love how customizable the bowls are. The staff is friendly and quick, even when it’s busy. My go-to order is [insert your favorite bowl], and it never disappoints. Definitely one of my favorite healthy and satisfying meals.” #solapartycatering
Bedford Pokeworks all the way!! This is my favorite pick me up spot!! Special shout out to Gian, who recommended me their signature dish, umami ahi, and it’s been my go to ever since. Aside from the good food, the place has great vibes, which is desperately needed after a long day at work 🥹.
The staff and people are so friendly at this Pokeworks, it feels very neighborly. Me and friends all got the impact tuna vegan poke bowls and LOVED it! I’m the past I’ve only had poke bowls with tofu but experiencing it with something that mimics the texture of fish I feel like made the poke bowl taste how it should taste. Will def be coming back for more!
Absolutely loved my experience at Pokéworks in Williamsburg! The standout of my visit was definitely the excellent service provided by Maddy. She was not only friendly and welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She offered great recommendations tailored to my tastes and dietary preferences, which made the whole experience very personalized. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Thanks to Maddy’s attention to detail and superb customer service, I’ll definitely be returning soon and recommending this spot to friends. A must-visit if you're in the area!
Very low standard of food and service here. As a Pokeworks regular at other branches there’s something wrong with this particular branch. Food is stale or sour like it’s been left out for too long / isn’t fresh. So if you’re getting poke in Williamsburg I’d highly suggest the other poke stores.
Man who claims to be the owner of this franchise called me, mentioned he saw this google review, and spoke with so much disrespect on a level I’ve never seen from a customer service before. Strange that he initially claimed that his manager wasn’t in the store to deal with my order problem but then later claimed to be the owner of the franchise when he got mad. My order wasn’t delivered but the status says delivered so I asked him to officially cancel it so I can be refunded but he didn’t. Original: Not trustworthy for delivery orders. Unsafe for those with allergies/health conditions. They got my order wrong: gave the wrong rice (which I cannot eat due to health condition) and only gave 2 proteins when my order was for 3.
Worst Pokeworks franchise. The man in charge of this store is incredibly rude and dishonest. You’re far from having what it takes to run a business if you’re not capable of interacting with customers with the slightest bit of maturity, understanding, and emotional intelligence. When a customer is objectively owed a refund and you don’t issue it, and treat them with disrespect, word of mouth of a bad reputation spreads fast, and everyone who depends on you for this business to be successful is set up for failure because of you.
I rarely ever leave reviews but this place is so far from trustworthy that I have to. My bowl was supposed to contain 3 proteins but there was only 1. Missing items happened multiple times. Noticed they do this particularly with pick up and delivery orders because they can get away with it and refuse a refund. (Don’t take the risk of ordering from here. There are plenty of poke alternatives in the area that are priced better and you should direct your money to honest businesses.)
