Reviews of Oké Poké

Y. C.

Really good portion size, enough for my lunch tomorrow! Very good ratio of toppings to rice and very generous with the sauce. Friendly service and all very fresh. Rice was warm but I did go in at opening so I imagine it had just been made and I don't mind it being warm if it's fresh. Would recommend!

H. P.

Wow this was absolutely amazing, we got the tofu tastic and a build your own, cannot recommend the tofu enough & the classic sauce!!! the rice was hot and toppings delicious, perfect lunch!!

E. D.

Food was really good! Staff were friendly and welcoming. Only issue is accessibility - building is not wheelchair accessible, but had a disabled toilet, which again was not wheelchair accessible due to the things blocking the door. The entrance had no flat entrance and had stairs going up. Luckily I am an ambulatory wheelchair user so I was able to still access but just concerned for those who have to use their wheelchairs (though I understand the building may be old or such). However staff let us store the wheelchair out of way for us which was very kind.

D. S.

Popped in at a lunch time and we're really glad we did. Everything tasted really fresh and it was great to be able to build our own bowl instead of having to order solely off of the set menu! Would recommend!

M. B.

I love the poke bowls from here and would normally get one every couple of weeks as a lunch treat. It was never cheap - £8.49 (with one additional garnish) but I could justify it as it was really good. However the recent price hikes to £10.99 and now brought back down slightly to £9.99, (before any extras), is in my opinion, too expensive for what you get. I can't bring myself to pay over £10 for a lunch when even £8.50 I regarded as a treat. Not to mention they don't fill the tub up as much as they used to! If it went back to the old prices I would continue to go frequently, however I haven't been for around 6 months purely based on value for money. A stampable loyalty card for e.g. buy 5 get one free would even make me consider revisiting, I just feel as though they're pricing themselves out of a lot of business as it stands.

M. L.

Customised my own pokerito and it was delicious: great choice of fillings and it all tasted very fresh. Service was quick and friendly. My only complaint is the price and portion size: my pokerito was the size of a small wrap that you'd get in a supermarket meal deal, but cost £9.99. I won't be going back unless they change the prices, start doing something like student discount, or make their portions larger unfortunately.

One of the best places for a poke bowl crave. They have the best combination of flavours. We usually create our own bowl, pick our choice of ingredients and they usually work well together with the sauces. Love how they add so much raw fish. The service is always friendly whenever we visit. The place could do with more tables as it gets busy and we tend to share the table with other customers. However, we would definitely return whenever we’re in the city.

S. W.

I am a fan of poke bowls, so looked forward to trying this place. There are a selection of poke bowls to choose from or you can choose your own, building up the rice, topping, garnishes and sauce. Once your order is placed at the till, you can choose your own seat and the order is brought to your table. There is lemon flavoured tap water at the bar which you can help yourself too. If you don't fancy using chopsticks there were also spoons and forks at the bar. I had the classic ahi with Tuna and build your own with salmon. The rice was authentic sushi rice and the fish was most importantly fresh. The sauce was flavoursome and the staff were smiley. I would return again to try the desserts. The only minor point was the Matcha infusion was actually a teabag and not powder.

M. S.

When healthy eating is up on the trend . Recommended for people looking for healthy options. Juices are made on the spot with fresh ingredients. You can select poké bowls from the combination that's already available or you can select options according to your liking. Staff at the place is very nice. Price worthy for the amount of food and ingredients content. Freshness overload !!

E. R. M.

Really fresh raw tuna and salmon. I loved the combination of flavours in my bowl with some wakame (sea weed) and their oke poke sauce with wasabi, soy sauce and spices. A must try in Manchester. It also was surprisingly filling.

P. M.

My new favourite place in Manchester! Want to eat healthy but have no idea where to eat? Try Oke Poke set menu. Know what you want but you are too lazy to make it yourself? You can decide what you want and Oke Poke staff will prepare it for you. Don't forget to ask for a freshly squeezed juice 500ml or 1000ml 😍 it is served in a bottle so you can take it with you 😊

L. Y.

Very nice Poké bowls, portions are very small but they have good variety in terms of toppings.

E. W.

Really lovely staff and fresh tasting bowls of the tastiest food. I was a newbie to it so chose a winter special that was recommended to me. Loved the big chunks of tofu on the black rice base. Will be back to try more combos!

T. W.

Healthy and delicious food, served quickly in a pleasant setting. The 'make your own' bowl option ensures you get exactly what you want. Why can't these be everywhere?!

K. S.

Lovely staff, good fresh ingredients. Great portion size, free WiFi and charging plugs available to use. Definitely worth a visit for a quick bite to eat or a sit and chatter with friends.

f.

Really tasty food! Loved that I could build my own poke bowl. Definitely a good place for vegetarians too.

C. “. B.

It's Pok'e serve a interesting concept of Hawaiian food called Pok'e or "Tako" Which is fish salad. I tried the Ahi Pok'erito which was rather similar to a futomaki sushi roll. Restaurant has a bright and welcoming vibe and all food is made fresh. Great price point for manchester food.

K. R.

Awesome gluten-free options! The man working was super helpful about what items had cross contamination!

L. N.

Casual, cosy little place with healthy food choices. I had a tuna poke bowl and liked that you could build your own! The tuna tasted like really good quality too! My sister had a pokerito and found it really filling!

S. D.

I got takeaway from here during my lunch break and it was delicious! I had the teriyaki chicken option from the set menu. I really enjoyed eating it and it felt very healthy with lots of fresh vegetables. The black rice is a little difficult to pick up with chopsticks but that's my fault! The price is about right for what you get though the portion is definitely more like a light lunch rather than a full meal. Overall, yummy and I'm sure I'll be back

G. O.

If you want really tasty fast food that is good for you then this is it! We opted for the off menu standard tuna poke. It took a few mins for them to prepare, but that was because when the dish arrived it was immaculately presented. The tuna was very tasty and had been marinated. There was wakame seaweed which complemented the dish perfectly. The price of the dish was £7. If your used to sushi this is cheap.

J. B.

Perfect spot for a healthy light meal. They do Poké( poh-kay) a Hawaian delicious street food that looks like a deconstructed sushi. They have plenty of GF and vegan choices as well. You can pick one of the bowls from the menu or create your own. They do as well a ‘pokerito’, a kind of healthy burrito similar to a sushi uramaki roll. Highly recommend ♥️

J. G.

Amazing food ingredients were really fresh and you got a generous helping of each! Staff were really friendly and welcoming.

L. L.

Good tasting food. The classic sauce and pomegranate sauce are both great. Sushi rice is a bit to soggy...too much water added!

L. V.

Delicious food, super healthy and big portions. The ice cream scoops are a bit small, but still taste like heaven

C. L.

Good, healthy options. Price is a bit hefty but you get good quality ingredients for it.

W.

Great atmosphere, amazing healthy food, lovely and friendly staff. Tried this great sugar free fresh dessert.

R.

Food was ok. But the place was very un clean. Won’t be going back unfortunately

T. E.

We ordered takeaway. I must say that the pokeritos did not meet our expectations. We saw all these nice pics people have shared of well stuffed pokeritos and what we got was something that was lacking ingredients! Just a few tiny pieces of kimchi(couldn't even taste it), a bit too chunky pieces of not really torched zucchini and the teriyaki sauce was basically nonexistent. The ingredients were far from evenly distributed across. Everything was fresh and yummy, but for the price and the pictures seen, it was quite disappointing! Shame, I was really looking forward to it, thinking it would become a frequent customer. Might give it a chance in the distant future if things seem to have improved, but for now, not spending here!

K. L. (. L.

Delicious Hawaiian Japanese fusion food with an interesting twist in their Pokerito being a giant hand roll sort of sushi thing which was awesome.

L. L.

Decent poke. Just a warning the seaweed is super salty. A little pricey for the portion size.

D. W.

I used to get Poke all of the time but this is the first place since moving back home where I've been able to get it local-ish. Friendly staff, large menu and an a fair price. Really good standard of hygiene. Will be back.

B. Z.

If you know your Poké bowls... you must try this wonderful little spot. The most fresh and delicious flavours. The best in Manchester!

J. J.

I came here on Wednesday and had the tofu bowl and the cacao smoothie, both tasted lovely, fresh and so healthy. The interior of the restaurant was also very nicely decorated with great lighting and nice paintings on the walls. The staff were very friendly and welcoming too.

L. M.

The food and smoothies are very nice. The only down side is that the poke bowl is a bit small considering the price

s.

I opted for the “make your own” poké bowl, the staff were really friendly and let me try roe before I picked it for my bowl. I also ordered a fresh juice which another staff member adjusted the amount of ginger to accommodate my taste. The food is fresh and delicious :) it’s a healthier option than other lunch places however it is quite pricey...

C. R.

Excellent place. Something new, exciting, and well-made in a city centre full of chain food and crappy takeaways. Okay, so first of all, you may not have heard of Poke before. Basically it's a hawaiian mixture of raw fish (this place also does tofu and cooked chicken), mixed in with rice, greens, and sauce to make a salad thing, or wrapped up in a burrito. It's delicious. If you like sushi, you'll like poke. As for this place specifically, they do a great job. The food arrives very quickly, and is all clearly top quality ingredients, served in a neat little bamboo (I think) tray. The staff are extremely friendly. And the attention to detail is very impressive. Even the free tap water is delicious, because they've got fresh mint leaves in the jug. The value is very good. Best light meal you can get in the city centre for less than £10. Pretty good juice, too. Seriously. Try this place.

D. W.

The food was both tasty and healthy, and the staff were friendly and helpful in explaining things. I've had to mark this establishment down though as my green tea (eating in) was served in a disposable plastic-containing cup (this seemed to be standard policy, rather than just because they had run out of crockery). This both impaired my enjoyment of the tea and is very bad for the environment and wildlife. Also, for me a main course was not filling as it is very light food in rather small portions, but as I said, quality was good. So it depends what you are looking for. Sort out the cups and I will revise the review and add a star 🙂

C. M.

A great little foodie gem in the heart of Manchester. The food is fresh and the menu construction is well done. The atmosphere is welcoming but could be more ambient and cosy - the kind of "on the tropical beach" look and feel is missing. The portions are small and the prices are high, and the flavours aren't always put together in complementing ways. I wouldn't recommend this place as a casual or regular visitor, but it's well worth a visit once or twice to experience something that stands out from the very crowded food scene.

V. C.

The staff are amazing and friendly. I am not a fan of healthy eating, however I had my first quinoa there and I'm a convert. The price is really good. You can eat from the set menu or make you own dish up. You can take away or eat in. Spectacular.

C. H.

Excellent Poké bowls with good vegetarian and vegan options. You can choose from a pre-defined menu or create your own from the selection of fresh veg and other ingredients. They also serve alcoholic drinks. The staff are very friendly, and the music is good

S. P.

Had a lovely experience at Oke Poké. Food was delicious and fresh (had the classic ahi bowl but replaced the tuna with salmon), the staff was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere. My only qualm was the prices seemed a bit high for the small portions you get (especially if you eat in as VAT is added on).

Z. B.

The bowls are delicious! Thanks to the quality ingredients you serve! Customer service is lovely, thanks to Alexandra, the girl from the counter! Keep it like this and you will never disappoint 👍

J. C.

Good tasting poké with lots of options. The amount of food is rather small for the price, though (£10).

S. &. O.

Fresh food. Friendly place and affordable prices for a little gem in the northern quarter. This is not a sushi restaurant, jet the rice and all the other ingredients are Fresh! From the avocado to the tuna to the salmon. Great great compliments!!

G. B.

The menu and service were ahead of my expectations. I really loved the vibes of this restaurant. Wonderful place to take the family out for lunch.

M. B.

I've been ordering pokè bowls from Deliveroo since a couple of months now, in my 4 years using Deliveroo almost every week, I can't think of any restaurants in Manchester with the same service, the quality of the food is incredible, the tuna and the salmon are simply amazing, also what you get for the price you pay is literally unbelievable. I'm sure I will be a Oke Pokè customer for very long!

S. J.

I love getting a poké bowl from this place! It tastes amazing and you can build your own bowl (pick your ingredients). Maybe a tiny bit in the pricey side but it's worth it!

L. S.

Amazing food and excellent service 👍 I go nearly every week and never been disappointed 😊

S. H.

I love poke! It's so fresh, tasty and nice! The place is very relaxed! The staff are really friendly. I ordered the classic ahi poke Bowl which is avacado tuna seaweed salad and sushi rice with the classic soya sauce ginger sauce. The other bowl was a salmon quinoa poke bowl! I prefer the tuna bowl as the rice is more filling. Poke. Is basically similar to sushi in that the fish is raw and served with sushi rice. The only downside is that there is no wheel chair access for disabled people and the price is quite expensive fot a small amount of food! Otherwise i would really recommend this place!

p. g.

Been here a few times and the food is lovely, fresh and healthy. Brilliant lovely staff and it is actually not as expensive as you would think. Love the decor inside and perfect for a nice, relaxing place to eat

D. M.

It is not bad but the portion is a way too small.

J. W.

The food is amazing, but their customer service is the worst! I can't even tell you how many times I walk in and just stand there watching them (no matter who's behind the counter) acting all confused over whatever it is there looking at. Ignoring the fact that someone walked in. Then when they finally do look up there's next to nothing to come out of their mouth leaving you to stumble around in telling them what you want. As they then look at you confused as if it's their first day, every day. Someone looking to open a new business should do a poke shop so I can stop going here. A smile would be all you need to improve upon what this place offers.

S. W.

Thr food is very fresh and delicious, concise menu and relativley quick service. Inside looks pretty and we had a good time.

H. H.

Cute little café (I think it's new) in the Northern Quarter, selling traditional Hawaiian Poké. They use fresh ingredients and there is a nice range of options for both meat-eaters and vegetarians and vegans. Very friendly staff as well!

R. K.

Really tasty food, that is also pretty healthy, and won't leave you feeling gross after eating loads of it! I had the classic ahi tuna pokerito and it was delicious, boyfriend had the 'another day in paradise' bowl, also amazing. Although I wouldn't order the cucumber and ginger juice again, but there are many other options to try.

J. M.

I eat in this spot a lot since I work nearby. I have to say their customer service is always great and they keep the spot well organized constantly. Prices are affordable and they serve sizeable portions.

V.

The Teriyaki Bowl is great. One drawback is the food is not very filling. More expensive to sit in (that's not Oke) so would recommend takeaway and having something to eat before ordering

A.

Amazing poké, friendly staff. I loved that they had recycled napkins, only give you straws when you specifically ask for them and have water bottles from a company that sends nothing to landfill. Great to see companies making an effort!

y. V.

Little gem! Food is fresh & great service. Kimchi soup was amazing. Very filling. Lovely staff treated us to some mochi balls. Definitely will be back.

D. F.

Best poké in Manchester. There is a fresh juice option too, which is delicious. The Pokérito is also an "inovation" here and I was surprised with how good it tasted. I haven't tried thr desserts yet but, overall, they look healthier than usual. Important to mention that this place has vegetarian and vegan options, and it is perfect for those who have dairy intolerances.

A. S.

Delicious clean food although it's a bit pricey.

D. S.

Very tasty food. Healthy dishes. Slightly pricey at 7.95 for a main dish but felt reasonable value given ingredients tasted quality. Nice atmosphere

J. D.

Wow. 3 types of healthy sashimi, black rice, salad with loads of other goodies. We were really stuffed when we paid less than £30 for two people including protein smoothies! This is going to be a regular!

A. L.

Good healthy food presented well and very tasty. Lots of options for vegetarians and pescetarians. Portions are small to medium in size.

J. A. C.

Oké Poké offers an amount ingredients to personalize your bowl. We only though that the bowl was too small for that price even though the food was good.

K. W.

Just went in for a snack to share and a couple of drinks. Great customer service even though over run with delivery orders. Took the time to explain and ask what we thought of the food. Thank you so much for the food!

V. M.

This spot is worth visiting. They have large portions for reasonable prices. Regularly well organized and with fantastic atmosphere. Will come back again.

G.

Great food. However the prices have gone up while the portions have gone down :/

J. C.

Lovely food and atmosphere. What blew me away was the service. I went in pretty clueless about what I wanted and what I'd like - front of house we're attentive and super friendly. Eat here.

C. A.

Awesome food and very nice atmosphere. If only Bikram Yoga was still open, I'd be there all the time.

W. I.

A bowl of fresh and healthy food. Different from your usual takeaway. Everything is hand made. Love the mochi ice cream too, shout out for the vanilla flavour!

A. B.
