I’ve ordered from this place multiple times and I have enjoyed the food and service. Unfortunately, today there was a worm or larva in my food that I noticed near the end. I think this came from the rice or vegetables. I’m disgusted and will not return. I did receive a refund and they seemed to take this complaint seriously. I have no complaints about their reaction to this discovery. I would not recommend anyone eat here. At least not until a few months have passed by and their health and safety standards have improved.

Very light and tasty poke. You can build your own poke selecting the ingredients on a paper menu form.

Came here for lunch and ordered a regular sized bowl. The portion size is small for the amount that you're getting, $17 (before tax) for a "regular". Small was $14 I believe. The container was not very full. I ordered the Jammin ginger sauce with salmon. I did not taste any ginger whatsoever in the sauce and it was quite salty. I would not come back here again.

Such a fantastic place to grab a solid healthy bite to eat. Portions are a healthy size and the menu is really easy to understand. I love the options and the array of garnish. It's not a lot of seating but it's a really relaxing atmosphere and low key. Bathrooms are stellar and super accessible. Spacious for wheelchair access. Definitely great for takeout and those looking to escape the sandwich/pizza lunch and a healthy and hearty alternative.

Came here due to the great reviews but I found the poke bowl lacked flavour and freshness. Also, I have to agree with another reviewer as I felt rushed by the employee to order and quickly read the board despite being the only person there at the time.

I love how cozy and original this place is and how great service they offer. I am a bit new to Poke so the "Build your Bowl" card made it easier for me. I went with my wife and kid and they were super cool about serving us a customized bowl for him with only rice and avocado. We had our bowls with salmon and tuna and it was delicious.

Had my first poke bowl at this place, it was delicious. It did not disappoint. Bowl was made on the spot, ingredients are fresh. Decor is clean, spacious, simple and a pop of color. You can customize your bowl however you like, this place is great for lunch.

Nice place. Ingredients are fresh and nicely prepared. Very friendly staff who are eager to improve and to become more creative in ways that will satisfy customers. If you have time, give it a try. It is different experience from Rolltation or any other franchise poke places. Their set menu changes everyday since they have “Favourites of the day”. Also you can create your own. The portion can be a little small. But I loved the fact that one of the owners approached me and my wife and other customers to get feedbacks and exchanged opinions. This was something unique for me to see in a poke place (or maybe any other places). The overall experience was good.

Their food is always very fresh and super yummy. I love all kinds of optional toppings. The staff is always very friendly and welcoming. Jessica gave me a free drink when the rice wasn t ready when I had to wait for a few minutes. I ve been a regular over a year. No plan of stopping Highly recommend this place!

Tried for the first time and was a little disappointed given the area it s located. I expected fresher ingredients (specifically the rice) especially during lunch hour. Nothing was explained to me (ie whether a certain amount of toppings are included, and after those the rest are add-ons). The staff were nice, but I did feel a bit rushed (only one person ahead of me). I ordered a large ($24) and not with a crazy amount of toppings, but compared to a place like In A Bowl, it was equivalent to a small, and for the same price that In A Bowl sells a large.

The Asian guy working there might be retarded or demented. He seemed like he s the owner. He made my order wrong because he was in a rush for no reason and asking for my toppings so quickly before even putting it on the bowl. Because of that, he ended up getting half my toppings wrong and added sauce to the salmon when I asked for no sauce. He apologized afterwards but that doesn t make up for his stupidity. He s also so selfish and barely puts any meat because it s coming out of his pocket. You need customer service training and don t rush an order because next time it won t be a review and I will humiliate you infront of your customers and employees

December 23, 2023

Came here for the first time felt like they rush you to order and not really give you time to look at what they have. I was not impressed with the rushed service when there was not that many people there. The poke bowl tasted quite bland, it was like eating plain white rice with plain diced salmon. I guess it s a healthier alternative if you are trying to eat clean without too much seasoning/ sauces or flavouring. Salmon was fresh tasting, I ll give them that. If I were to go back I would like to possibly have a chance to look at what I want to order and want to add into my poke bowl.

Tried to go 3 weekends on a row and each time it was closed even though it was still the official open business hours (tried at 4, 5, 5:30). They just randomly close it whenever they want so very unreliable. Wont waste my time anymore.

Got the salmon bowl, its pretty decent. The rice was a little hard and it got stuck to the bowl. The salmon was good but the portion of the scoop is pretty small for a regular. Good for quick bite.

Regular Poke Bowl: $15 Small Poke Bowl: $10 Pricing as of February 1st 2022 Was craving a poke bowl so decided to give this place a go. Pricing was much higher then I thought it would be when I got there. Got two fish bowls with regular ingredients + avocado and seaweed, ended up paying $40. I don t usually go to poke bowl places so maybe that s normal? Be the judge yourself. The bowl itself had good amount of rice, quantity of tuna was also average in my opinion. There was lack of vegetables. I asked for everything so I was expecting more. Disappointing element was probably the sauce. Got K-Town and tasted no garlic chilli or sweetness in it. All in all an average poke bowl. If you get it you won t be disappointed, but you also won t be impressed.

Nothing can attest to a place s popularity like running out of fish as they ran out of salmon so I ended up getting tuna. Definitely one of the best and freshest tuna I had in a poke bowl. The rice was decent and their toppings and sauces were quite creative and unlike any other places. I m still shocked as to why they have not opened up for in person dining yet as they were only offering to go orders. I will be back once they open in person dining as it s difficult to find a place to sit and eat in the area.

I went here cause of good reviews. Im not sure how everyone is rating them high, maybe they havent had poke before, but i went here with friends and family and idk where to begin. So first of all there is no fruits as topping. More than 50% of the bowl is rice which is not the case any other poke place you go. The amount of sauce they put is only good for half the bowl. All in all it seemed like they are being very cheap with everything.

I tried ordering online before picking up but it was close to the time that they closed so when I entered the payment info, I got a message saying that the salmon was not available anymore. I ended up calling them to see if I could still place an order and the staff was able to place it for me. When I got there, within 10 min of calling, my order was ready for pick up. I was thankful that they were so quick and able to accommodate my order right before closing time. I was happy with my poke bowl. It was fresh and has lots of different ingredients. I love that they offer zucchini pasta as an alternative to rice. They have a lot of sauces and I m curious to try more of them. Will come back again!

December 23, 2021

This is the most ridiculously overpriced poke I ve ever had. Their larger $14 bowl is the equivalent to a small everywhere else, and most of it is just rice. The servings of both free and paid toppings is very small. I paid $4.50 extra to get a double scoop of salmon as a friend and I were sharing and they gave us what would be the single portion if I d ordered elsewhere. Same with the $1.50 add-on avocado, they put maybe a quarter on, if that. The taste was only average, certainly not good enough to make up for the lack of ingredients. It s pretty ridiculous to charge so much extra for items you re going to be so stingy with. Will not be ordering from this place again as it s a huge waste of money.

This is one of the best Poke places we have tried. Sadly its located downtown and so far out of the way for us, as we try to avoid downtown. My husband googled a random poke bowl that was close by to where I was wedding dress shopping and so happy we found Umami Poke. We love that they do build your own poke (I am a picky eater). Build Your Own Poke: Base: You get a choice between 4 options, 2 rice, 2 noodles Umami Poke: Theres about 10 choices available Mix In: You can mix in your Poke Bowl with about 8 different fresh ingredients they have on hand Top Off: and to top it off you get about 8-10 choices to top off your poke bowl with. The flavours of the poke is amazing and they have two sizes to choose from. We cant wait to come back for more.

Perfection in a bowl. Poke may be somewhat of a new thing in Toronto, but Umami Poke has perfected it. Theyre menu is simple (at the moment), but every option they have assembled just elevates this simple dish to something of awe.

Great experience. I love poke bowls! This is my first experience with them, and I would order again. The rice is a little gummy, which I somewhat expected from a delivery order - Im not sure there is any way to avoid that, though a larger bowl to pack it in might help? I recall the sauce and ingredients spreading around more evenly in the past, when I ordered in person. Either way, it was delish. I look forward to trying the zoodles next time. Also, the foodora deliver person was top notch!

I love poke bowls and have tried many different places in town, and this is the best Ive had so far. I purposely drove 45mins just to try this place as Ive heard it was good from a friend. The ingredients are fresh and top quality. Service was great. Love how the staff asked my when I was going to eat and how far I live. The staff then customised the boxes by seperating the rice and toppings plus an extra bag for the soup in case it spilled on my jouney home. Thanks Umami Poke. Definitely thumbs up and going there for my poke fix from now on even though its a long way for me but worth it. Definitely worth it. MUST try for all the poke lovers or first timers.

A very belated review but better late than never. My now-husband got married back in June and due to COVID, we couldn t do a reception for our 50 guests. With less than 2 months left, we reached out to Umami Poke for takeouts instead. Steven and Jessica, the owners, made the whole process extremely smooth and easy (which is such a huge deal cause planning a pandemic wedding was already stressful enough). We corresponded mostly through email and one phone call to iron out all the logistics. We gave them coolers to keep the poke fresh and they delivered it with no fuss right at the church. Even with the quantity of the order, there was no decrease in the quality and taste of the bowls. On top of that, everything was perfectly packed. After the ceremony, my husband and I enjoyed our bowls as we spent time processing that we were finally married while in the car. Thank you so much Steven and Jessica!!

Incredibly unique and cozy restaurant with nice staff. The one stand out quality of the restaurant is the freshness of its ingredients. Tried the shoyu salmon with zucchini noodles which had great flavour. Would definitely come back again.

Umami Poke is the perfect healthy alternative (to casual dining) I was looking for in the Rosedale area. This place has fresh, tasty and healthy ingredients with many options for toppings. Their sauces and seasoning is to die for! And the staff are super friendly. By far the best poke bowl I ve had. I m a huge fan of this place! :)

I wish this place was closer to home as I think that I would eat it every day. The staff is lovely, the food wonderfully fresh and flavourful. Best poke place Ive ever been to anywhere.

A must-try: Hawaiis answer to sushi. A delicious fresh mix of fish and veggies in a single bowl, with toppings ranging from minced crab to coconut. This is our go-to place for healthy lunches and dinners. I always order the zucchini noodle base (made of 100% shredded zucchini), but quinoa, brown rice and other options available. Can also do vegan.

The decor is very beautiful and homey - makes people feel instantly comfy walking in. The bathroom is also very nice with the hand-painted walls being an exceptional addition. The food, delicious! Has unique flavours that typically would not find in other poké restaurants. Would always come here for poké - the price is fair for the amount they give! The owner and workers are also very kind and friendly, which makes this place even more welcoming and excellent. Overall, definitely will recommend this place to anyone that likes poké. If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would!! 10/5 best poké I have ever had.

This place was absolute fanstatic. From start to finish! Casual environment with some seating, but also grab and go friendly. The bowls were delicious, flavours and textures blended beautifully, and no skimping on the salmon which was fantastic. So good I almost bought another bowl right after I finished the first I shall return!

Pretty good. I ordered with Ritual and picked it up on time and with no issues. The decor is cute, theres free water and the service is friendly. I do feel like its a bit pricy considering that the regular size is pretty small, and it comes to almost $15 per bowl after tax. Its filling enough for lunch, but its not generously portioned in my opinion. Nevertheless, the ingredients were all fresh and tasty.

One of my favourite poke spots in the city. They keep it simple with great flavours and add-ons. I find most downtown spots too kitschy and doing too much. They give you a generous amount of salmon/tuna and a good amount of rice. A good selection of imported drinks too. The staff are also super nice! Would highly recommend.

Every once in a while you come across a place that is so good you think a repeat visit cant hold up to the original. I have been here 5 times and every time is as good as the last. Fresh, tasty and totally satisfying. Build your meal just the way you like it. Ive had poke in Hawaii and these guys take the traditional poke dish and kick it up to a new level. You want the best poke in the city. This is the place. Enjoy.

Great place to come if youre craving some poke. The staff are always very friendly and welcoming, also has amazing ambiance to boot! Ive tried most of their poke bowls and they all taste really good. You can tell that all of their ingredients are fresh too. My go to is always K Town salmon, but they have a variety of things to choose from to suit all dietary needs. If you like spice, you can always ask for their volcano bowl.....and maybe attempt to do the challenge.

Hands down the best tasting poke bowls in the city!! I always get always lit + shoyu the six for my salmon base. They change up some of the salmon flavours sometimes too. The ingredients taste fresh and you get unlimited toppings - which is not the case for alot of places. The japanese rice is seasoned nicely and it tastes oh so good. The restaurant itself is really cute and matches the Hawaiian theme. (yaaas pineapples!) If youre an avid poke bowl lover then check out Umami poke! ;)
