I ordered dinner and placed the order at 7:29 pm through their website. I got a text message that my order would be ready at 7:45 pm. I walked to the restaurant and it was closed. There is a sign on the door printed on computer paper that read “closed at 7:30 pm.” Not sure why their online system allowed me to place the order or website says they are open. I was charged $20 for my meal that was never made.
Came in this afternoon and the whole experience was great. The staff working were super attentive and kind. While they had limited fish available today- my dish was delicious. Look forward to coming back and hope to keep seeing smiling faces behind the counter.
Soooo delicious! Fresh fish, nice chat during preparation! Definitely would go back when in the neighborhood. ???
I'm sitting here at home eating a Makai bowl, or box really. It's a lot of food, sufficient amount to fill the box in layers, and plenty of fresh-tasting fish. The flavors are well-balanced, the ingredients all taste fresh, the rice is room temp. It's a very good poke bowl.I just returned from a couple weeks on Kauai. We, naturally, ate quite a bit of poke from very good fish shops around the island. The Walking Fish bowl is similar in portion size and price to the places in Hawaii, and the poke is as good as some, better than others. Two scoops and a few extras and your poke bowl is pushing $20, same as WF. (They should have named it Walking The Fish)Yes, they don't have 4 kinds of octopus, squid salad, smoked mahi mahi, miso prawns, or the cornucopia of seafood options you'll find in the typical Hawaiian poke spot. If they did, I'd have to question the freshness. And who does on the mainland?Prices are up all over, in all restaurants and cafes, and the grocery store, everywhere.We're lucky to have Walking Fish as a neighborhood poke option.
Great poke! Recommended
Unbelievable. This place is a joke. The amount you pay for a quarter size of a regular poke bowl is an absolute rip off. I never leave reviews. I don't typically have time. But despite screaming children I'm taking 3 min to say this place will not survive. And shouldn't. You'd be better to get a poke bowl at Whole Foods than waste your money here. I paid extra for a few strings of seaweed salad. I paid extra for an additional scoop of fish. The "double scoop" of fish didn't even equal a normal ice cream scoop size. It was barely enough food to even cover the bottom of a to go box. 3 bowls. $60 bucks!!! Don't mind paying that much for a normal size poke bowl. It literally was maybe 4 bites of food besides the rice. Just a rip off.
What a delight this place is! Delicious
portion sizes are ridiculously small. way too pricy for the amount of food. still hungry after $15 for a medium
Very overpriced for the minuscule portion of fish of 3 tuna cubes. Additionally, the toppings are extremely bizarre and non-poke like. What type of poke place doesn’t have crab salad?Would never come back.
Echoing some reviewers below, quality doesn't justify the price or the glowing reviews given by others.
