Firstly I would like to say that portion wise these were the best poke bowls I have had. There is a decent amount of toppings and the fish was super clean and fresh. I have one issue though which absolutely affected my food. The rice in my bowl , which I only got because they were out of mixed greens, was extremely hot and fresh from the rice cooker. This led to extremely warm raw tuna and salmon, and made my dish unpalatable until I brought it home and gave it some freezer time. Warm rice can create bacteria which is sushi’s #1 gamble. Overall it was decent but please COOL DOWN THE RICE!!!!!!
I have never met an employee of a poke restaurant that was so confused as to how to make a simple order of putting food into a bowl. The food is mid, they dumped a massive amount of sauce on the bowl. It turned into slop. It wasn't even food anymore. The kid that checked me out at the counter was rude. Their whole system is very strange, unsavory, rude, and I won't come back.
A great quick service option in the foundry. Got a large bowl with ahi tuna & salmon with a bunch of the fixings. Price for the bowl was about $22 (with tip) but was extremely fresh & filling. The server was kind as well! Only giving four stars because I've been there on three separate occasions, and they are consistently out of a few items.
Perfect portion size you just really choose the amount of protein. Great flavor, freshness, and kind service.
Tuna Poke Bowl. Soooooo yummy!! Food was fresh, made fast and I ate it faster😋 Highly recommend if you are in STL! I can’t wait to go back.
The Hello Poke Bowl's Hawaiian-style bowls are absolutely fantastic! The raw fish was incredibly fresh and flavorful, perfectly complemented by the delicious toppings and sauces. It's a true taste of Hawaii in every bite can't wait to come back for more!
On my inaugural visit to the Foundry, I was drawn to Hello Poke amidst a sea of food options. I chose the chicken and brown rice bowl adorned with a medley of toppings with teriyaki sauce, which proved to be a flavorful choice. Complemented by the welcoming staff, the experience was a pleasant one.
Visited for the first time… I will say this was not my thing. However, I won’t be biased based in this. They offer nice portion sizes in rice but are very limited on the other toppings. I’m not a fan of warm/cold food mixtures on the same plate/ bowl. The Mochi was a different experience as well. It feels like ice cream wrapped in a taffy of some sort but it is very flavorful. My spouse liked it a lot and said he would be back. Also, the staff were very nice and very efficient on my visit.
