Local Poké Houston Reviews
First time here, but not a first time enjoyer of Poke. The restaurant is very clean and nice. The food is fresh and taste wonderful. Had the pleasure of Alexi preparing our meals. Absolutely wonderful vibes, super nice, friendly and helpful. Definitely will be a regular here.
I should have done a review so much sooner since we are solid regulars at Local Poke and the service is always top notch. The poke is super flavorful and the portions are generous. They serve Stubborn Soda products with natural sugar and no corn syrup, so that’s a nice plus when we want something carbonated. We’ve tried other poke spots nearby and they don’t come close. It always smells super clean when we walk in and appreciate the game table with the giant Tetris XL displayed. Even their made-to-order musubi is worth a try. We’re thankful that it’s always a positively consistent experience, so we’ll continue to return again and again. Highly recommend!
Tried this for the first time instead of big chain poke places. This place exceeded our expectations by far. Everything was great quality and fresh. The real reason for writing this review is because of Alex. He was seriously the nicest person I have ever interacted with in customer service. He’s friendly, polite, and helpful. He’s the biggest reason we will be back again.
This might be the first time a Poke bowl had me extremely full. They are not stingy with any servings and everything tasted fresh. This will be my new go to Poke spot for sure !
My favorite poke place! They have a great selection of proteins, toppings, mix-ins, and sauces, and the portions are always big. The workers are always so nice and friendly, and I’ve never had a bad bowl here. Consistently fresh and delicious every time!
Local Poke is my favorite poke place in the city. It’s a much better choice to the chains out there. They’re a small family owned business and they do it right. It’s always fresh and delicious at a great price point. I’ve tried almost every poke spot in town and Local Poke reigns supreme. I would highly recommend it to anybody searching for great poke. Great option for lunch or dinner.
This is the ONLY good poke place in the inner loop. Fish tastes so good and they provide such good portions! I get this place almost every week cause it’s the only place I can get my poke fix in. Other places either skimp you or the fish isn’t as fresh. Will continue to come here forever
Local Poke is my new go-to spot for fresh and delicious poke! I was craving a good poke bowl and decided to give them a try, and I’m so glad I did. I ordered a medium bowl and built my own combination, which is always a plus. The star of the show was definitely the tuna – it tasted incredibly fresh, like it had just been caught. All of the mix-ins were also fresh and vibrant, making for a truly satisfying and flavorful bowl. What also impressed me was the portion size. The medium bowl was a decent portion, definitely enough to satisfy my hunger without being overwhelming. It felt like I got great value for my money. On top of the amazing food, the service was fantastic. The guy who helped me was hella nice (as you said!), friendly, and helpful, which just added to the positive experience. If you're looking for fresh, high-quality poke with generous portions and friendly service, Local Poke is the place to be. I highly recommend it and will definitely be back for more!
On a road trip passing through Houston, we stopped here for a quick dinner I could eat a bit of on the road and the rest once we got to Louisiana. This is now a staple for us when we make this trip. Super nice people, new and creative sauces, and everything tastes great. I'm not a fan of mayo, so I typically have a hard time enjoying the 1-2 options available to me at most Poke restaurants. I love the Honey Wasabi sauce, and they have special protein options where they marinate then in unique blends of sauces and seasonings each day.
This establishment offers numerous options including bowl size, rice, proteins, and sides to customize your poke bowl. As they have a variety, the quality of their ingredients are very fine and fresh. They are healthy and elegantly succulent. The pricing is not bad for the quality, in fact is cheaper than other establishment. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable with the options. One of the staff walked us through with some of the ingredient and some premium topping that not a lot of poke places has. As a customer, we really appreciated their generosity. I have been to quite enough poke places around Houston, and I think this one beats out a lot of them. It is one of the few places that I will be coming back to eat more of their poke! I think it is one of the best Poke places in Houston! Highly recommended to other people!
So glad I drove the extra time out this way. The guys helping me out with my first time here we're great. Ingredients all looked delicious, and price was pretty good for a poke spot. DEVOURED my custom bowl in minutes. Even though this place is a little out of my way, I still signed up for their rewards program because of the great service I had today.
The best quality and value poke in Houston. With all the poke places in Houston, Local Poke stands out as the best value with included premium toppings and add-ins that are typically an additional charge at other places. The fish is fresh and the staff is friendly, patient and knowledgeable. Try the pre-marinaded traditional poke for a taste of Hawaii. Ample parking in the back.
Update: This place is still above par and now they have a reward system in place. LOVE this place! $10 to either stuff yourself full or have two regular sized meals? And the food is awesome with a million ingredients and combinations? Sign me up. Great service, staff willing to take time to explain the plethora of options. Awesome place. Will be a frequent customer and pray the line doesn’t start wrapping around the building.
I loved poke in hawaii, it's quite popular there. Sushi grade salmon & tuna. This place you select a bowl size, white or brown rice or greens & cucumbers (or a mix). 3 or 4 proteins dependant on the size you ordered. 2 sides. And a bunch mix-ins, sauce & toppings. We got 4 Medium custom bowls. And shared 2 Stubborn sodas to try em (vanilla/blue colored label & berry/purple colored label). Super tasty!! 8 thumbs up 👍😊👍 👍😊👍 👍😊👍 👍😊👍
