We come here almost once a week, before we go to the pool! It’s the best affordable, healthy & tasty option we have in the area! The used to be on the corner, and now moved next door! The new space is much nicer with more tables! Definitely our favorite poke bowl so far! Our favorite is the bulgogi special. I think their rice is really tasty! They also offer free infused water, which is so refreshing. Highly recommended!

Decent amount of food for the pricing of it. Ingredients are fresh, I got both raw salmon and tuna. I like filling out the cards and customizing. Unfortunately I marked to have soy and mayo sauces on the side which they completely forgot to add to my order which completely sucks since I am traveling and don't have access to anything at my hotel. Guys seemed in a rush and need to slow down a bit to not miss stuff.<br>Ordered the soup and it was good, nothing overly amazing but standard miso. Service was good aside from them forgetting an item. Fast paced and good for a quick lunch or dinner stop for good pricing to ratio of food.
Obsessed! I take out at least once a week and each time is better than the last. Quality, quantity and flavor - you will find all of that here. My go to bowl - grilled shrimp, ahi tuna, double avocado & kimchi, edamame, seaweed salad, Pickled Red Cabbage, Cucumber, Triple Blend Seaweed, Scallion, Pickled Radish, Sesame Seeds, Crunchy Garlic, Crispy Shallots, Toasted Seaweed with ponzu…. I promise you will not be disappointed!!
they relocated right next to their previous location.<br>first time here, and it was a good experience! food was stacked up and was so delicious. got the custom bowl (L) and it was packed! absolutely loved the bulgogi beef, super flavourful and juicy. tuna was fresh. and for the other proteins (we had chicken, shrimp), the flavours are not so robust. our least fav was the tofu, it was kinda dry. we loved the bao w bulgogi as well. so fire.<br><br>must get the sesame aioli, omg that was so good. so balanced and perfect!<br><br>the cashier was a burst of energy and was super nice!
The best poke in nyc in my opinion. The noodles as a poke base is the highlight and the signature sauce is fantastic. I wish the raw seafood is more fresh but you get what you paid for. Can be overheated on same days. Overall great poke.
Since we Went to Korea we Fell in Love with the food. The bulgogi tasts exactly Like in Seoul and the potions are Great! Guess the best Price volume Ratio I had in New York. The Taste is fabolous! Full recommendation 🙏🏼
Red Poke is a fantastic spot for a quick and fresh meal! As a vegan, I was thrilled with their customizable bowl options. I built my own with tofu and a variety of fresh veggies, and they were happy to warm them up for me upon request. The service was super quick, and the place was spotless.
Delicious food, specially the rice, it is different. Good amount of food and very tasty. The place is cozy and with nice atmosphere.
Good poke bowls with lots of room for customization. We tried both their tuna and salmon. Both tasted fresh and paired well with their recommended toppings.
$19.15 after $2.00 tip. $2 extra for “avocado” which is really guacamole without seasoning. Small serving of tuna limited topping options. In a place like NY, it ought to be better. This ain’t it.<br><br>I will say it was fast and efficient, but that came at a cost of quality and quantity.
Been going to this specific location for a few years now and just had dinner here on 6/24. This place is always consistently good from the food to the service to the prices. I love that you can make your own bowls but they also have different specialty bowls that they switch up every now and then. Their dumplings are great too!<br>As busy as it gets there's always a place to sit and they have free water.<br><br>I will say the only negative aspect to this place is the bathroom is a little dingy and the lights wouldn't turn on. You also have to ask for the key to get in there. (This doesn't take away from the place but something to note!)
Absolutely gorgeous and convenient! The food here was mind-blowing and spectacular, and there are SO many good options! Everything here is customizable, and the dry-erase method to order your food is extremely easy and stress-free. I wish all restaurants were this delicious, modern, and efficient. 11/10, you HAVE to come here and eat’

Thank you so much for your fantastic review Christobel! We're thrilled that you enjoyed the Grilled Salmon and Veggie bowl. We can't wait to welcome you back for more delicious meals.<br><br>-Red Poke Team
Always fresh, always delicious. Fast counter service with free water flavored with citrus and cucumbers. They have a high volume of customers, so you know the ingredients haven’t been sitting. Bulgogi beef was tender; raw salmon was tasty. You can get a signature bowl or create your own. Not many tables, so if you want to sit, go early or be prepared to wait.
Got the Young Sook Lee bowl but didn’t know the sauce was spicy! Wish they gave me a warning or put the sauce on the side. It was good but too hot. Also got the beef bun and it was good. Overall 7/10. Lots of seats.
