ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Thank you for hooking me up the the surprise bowl and making my wife an incredible bowl as well. The service was absolutely awesome and the restaurant was very nice and clean. They have a nice selection of beer and other drinks. Very reasonably priced as well. We will 100% be back! Thank you!
I would just like to start off saying I used to absolutely love Paddles Up Poke. I have eaten there too many times to count… but not anymore. Paddles up before the pandemic and after are worlds apart different. Prices went up, quality and amount of fish went down, like way down. I get that inflation happened but you can’t charge more and give less worse quality fish. My last meal here will absolutely be my last. This was my fourth strike, I gave it a fourth because the first three were right after the pandemic and I wanted so badly for it to be good again, much to my dismay it was not. There was a total 6 pieces of salmon and 5 pieces of tuna total and what’s up with the inability to customize it now ordering online? This place used to be my favorite but if you’re looking for good poke stay far away.
As a poké enthusiast, I am happy to say that the Paddles Up Poké downtown location has exceeded my expectations to good poké. The service is stellar and so is the food. The person who served me, Spencer, was kind and answered any questions I had. I would absolutely eat there again. 10/10 recommend!!
So delicious!! Tried a burrito for the first time Definitely recommend. Presentation was awesome too! Hubby had a bowl. We both had the Bogus Basin. So good! Will definitely be back here.
These guys rock! I was in Boise for 2 months on a business trip, and I enjoyed there food so much. I ordered at least 2 times a week. You can't go wrong with this place. Check them out!
By far my favorite place in town for healthy, fresh food that’s unique and extremely tasty! Bogus Basin and the Fiesta are my favorite but make both of them as spicy as I can. Owner is doing a great job and really shows through the consistency in the quality. Hoping for one closer to me off ten mile!
I really don't wanna rate these guys with five stars. It's just a poke bowl, for crying out loud. But they probably deserve it.I'm not a regular here, but I dine here occasionally when in town for work. It's dependably satisfying. Splendid, really. Their combinations work. The blue rice is fun. The staff are always pro. The decor is on point. The music they play even hits the right notes to accompany your dining experience.And that's just it...when all the little details add up, it's amazing.
We've tried Paddles Up before and we like the food and the flavors. It's relatively healthy and convenient. However, our last visit did not go well. We ordered 4 bowls online. They were all incorrect. Some had no sauces even though we ordered sauces. They were all missing avocado even though we ordered avocado. It was as if somebody put the lids on them before they were done. When I'm paying over $75 for dinner, I would like to get what I ordered. As a result of this experience, we've decided to only order at the counter from now on. That way we can see what goes into our bowls. Also, I'd like more info about the various sauces. Which ones have fish or seafood ingredients? No info on the website or in the restaurant.
I love the Bogus Basic bowl! So yummy! However, I do have a few criticisms. 1) The staff can be extremely unfriendly sometimes. I get the stress, I work in the service industry, but as a paying customer (and a tipping one at that), I would hope that I would be treated a little better than I have been a few times that I’ve gone in. 2) I’m not sure what they use to preserve their avocado, but it completely butchers the flavor! I’ll often just opt out of getting avocado at this point because I can’t stand the flavor :(. Thank you for bringing Poke to Boise!
The young man who welcomed us on our first visit and taught us about the menu boards was a delight. So friendly and genuinely cared about our experience there, as a college student he (his name stated with a D) has worked there for a couple years and it is as apparent he enjoys his work. He encouraged us to read the story of how and why the restaurant was started and we are glad he did, a great story about chasing your dreams, stewarding what you have with excellence and how it paid off. We will be back again when in town - Thank you for great customer care. God Bless
