Review King Fish Poke

Ellie Leut

Super clean and cute place to eat lunch! I was so surprised it was empty when we walked in. I’m obsessed with their sushi rice and all of their ingredients were really fresh. The two ladies behind the counter were very nice and patient! Great please overall!

I eat here at least once per week, every week, and have been for over a year now. They’ve even memorized what I order! The people here are so nice, that eating here has become more like visiting old friends than just buying food. Speaking of the food, where do I begin? The ingredients are always fresh, made-to-order right in front of you, and the flavor is out of this world. I’m a sushi / poké connoisseur of sorts, so I don’t do reviews like this often. For me to sing a restaurant’s praises publicly, I have to be substantially impressed. King Fish Poké has definitely earned this review, hands down!

First time at a Poke Place. Went here on a Friday before a concert. Staff were friendly and the restaurant was clean. I ordered the Surf & Turf bowl with chicken, shrimp, lettuce, onions, cucumbers, carrots, cilantro, and crispy topping. I added corn and extra shrimp sauce. It was delicious! I'd definitely go here again. Only reason I gave them 4 stars out of 5 is I felt they were a little expensive. My bowl was like $16. And the chicken was dry, so next time I will get just shrimp. Other than that, I would recommend.

I loved the poke bowl and the concept of building your own poke bowl. Very fresh tasting and full of unique flavor!

This past Sunday I came here with a friend, and glad I have finally tried this place! You start with the rice, I chose sushi rice, the you get your proteins, I got pork, which counts as 2, and the tuna. Then I got the mix ins, seaweed, edamame, pineapple, and oranges. Next comes the toppings, I got seaweed salad, crab salad, tempura flakes, crispy onions, and the King Fish Classic sauce. All this put together made an awesome bowl of poké l will be back someday!

I saw that this place had sushi burritos and had to try them and boy am I glad that I did! The rice is warm and as you can see in the picture nicely proportioned and we'll cooked and flavored. The assorted fillings are light, fresh, and you can choose your own! The service here was also quite friendly and there were several recommendations that made the meal go from good to great like adding some crunch and getting extra sauce for dipping! All in all, I recommend coming here for something novel, filling, and satisfying but also light and refreshing! Because you can make your own it's also worth coming back to try all of the different variations. Glad I went out of the way to come here

$9.95 is a great starting price for poke with a fair range of fresh ingredient selections. You can choose sushi rice, a nori-wrapped "sushi burrito" or salad as your base. Beware: the sushi burrito is a giant maki roll that can get messy. Also, the place could use some better ambiance beyond the minimalist white tables and chairs (and cardboard boxes of supplies in the corner). Come here for your meal, then go get dessert at Tea Fusion on the other side of the shopping center!

Had The Niner burrito and my friend had The Friday bowl. I did prefer the bowl but both were good. Place looks super clean which is always a plus. Hope it stays that way. Prices are affordable too.

Solid bowl, worth the price, healthy food on the go, ordering online made it super easy to just run in,pick up and enjoy on the lunch break!

Hands down this is the best place for a poke bowl. The staff seemed a little dry towards “certain people” at times but overall amazing bold sauces, fresh food, more options than most & very clean! On your work break? No worries…you’ll be in & out. Keep in mind they’re not open one weekday

Jessica Yelland

Very clean restaurant, fresh ingredients, and delicious sushi bowls and burritos. Great portions for fair prices. Would definitely come here again!

Carson Melvin

Decent poke bowls. I placed an order on DoorDash and had to wait about 10 minutes past the promised time, but they had a steady flow of customers at the time so that's understandable. The bowls were fresh tasting and filling. The order was accurate and the staff was friendly. I'd definitely go back.

Ivan Jonas

A welcome addition to the growing number of poke bowl restaurants in Charlotte. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The price and quantity of the large bowl was quite good, and it was super delicious. On the other hand, a few of the sides are not well-priced ($1.75 for a little scoop of crab salad? Were they inspired by Chipotle's $2 scoop of guac?) but I was happy with my food without those premium sides. Despite the 5-star rating there are a few areas of improvement that I hope get worked out as the staff gets through their first month. Either way, I'll definitely be coming back here!

I ordered the Friday and loved it! Added jalapeños for extra spice. The ingredients taste very fresh and the service was great!

Nasheema Green

I love the food the ladies that were there the last time made me feel weird but other than this is was great !! I think it was two Hispanic females

Derrick Thammavongsa

This place is amazing. The owner and staff are welcoming and very friendly. Food here is absolutely delicious, everything is fresh and they cater to any taste you want; whether it be spicy, mild, or sweet. I recommend the char siu pork and spicy salmon bowl with cucumbers, carrots, edamame, onions, avocado, crab salad, onion crisps, and shredded nori mixed together with a blend of spicy aioli and shrimp sauce.

Lana Kemmerling

Stumbled upon this place after leaving Total Wine. Friendly staff. Fresh ingredients - rice, fish, and toppings. Good portion sizes. Will definitely be back! It’s nice to finally have a place like this in the University area.

Abigail Clark

I just went to the grand opening and all of my coworkers are glad I picked it! The staff was super friendly and the portions were generous. I could not believe how reasonably priced they are, I have been paying more for less food at other Poke places in Charlotte. You can definitely differentiate the freshness of their fish as well. They are well worth my drive from uptown.

Robert Keene

This place is great! Fresh taste at a great price! Highly recommend!

If chipotle and a sushi bar had a baby, this would be the results. I loved that I was given vegan options. Definitely will be going back!

Karen Kusak Tannenbaum

Even though they were out of tuna, they still had spicy tuna so it was still good. I absolutely loved my salad bowl and thought it was a good price for the fresh fish they serve. I will be eating here often! I'm so glad to have another healthy option in the neighborhood.

Dalton Matthew

Excellent food, and at a great price. And it feels good to eat it! I went there for the opening, and will definitely be returning.

Dan Jones

Wow. Staff is so amazing! Food is fresh af, and better than any sushi I have ever had! Get the house sauces!!!

Derek Vaughn

I went for the grand opening and my generous bowl was delicious! The best part is it didn't cost an arm and a leg. I'll definitely be returning.

Kimi McCraw

I went there for the opening and had a wonderful lunch! Loved every bite. I will definitely be back soon �

Bryna Callison

Oh my gosh, so so yummy and something new for University. They have absolutely perfect sushi rice (and I am super picky). Lots of choices for protein and toppings. A large bowl feeds two and it's priced right. The employees are super nice too. Love the chill atmosphere. Please go and support this restaurant!!

So good! �
