Grove - Poke & Salad Bowl

I'll definitely go here again. I ordered the aloha poke bowl with avocado. Wow, this bowl was like a party in my mouth, plus the mango chunks. They give you a side of spicy mayo, which is so bomb. You must try this place if you like poke bowls.

The Aloha Poke and Korean classic bowl we enjoyed were absolutely phenomenal! Not only were they healthy and bursting with flavor, but they also showcased a wonderful blend of culinary traditions. The owner's insights into the herbal benefits of the food added an enriching dimension to our experience; her passion and knowledge were truly impressive and made our visit all the more special. I can’t recommend this place highly enough!

This kimbap offers a delightful balance of flavors and textures. The combination of marinated burdock root, crispy fried crab stick, savory bulgogi, and a variety of stir-fried vegetables creates an interesting and harmonious bite. The rich and well-seasoned ingredients complement each other perfectly, making it a satisfying meal. Enjoying food from this place every weekend has become one of my favorite pleasures!

Came across this amazing restaurant unexpectedly. The food was AMAZING!! Everything is made like homemade and after talking to the owner she literally pours her heart into all of her food and genuinely wants people to enjoy a healthy food. From the poke bowl sauce, the teas, owen baked beets to the kimchi she makes it all by herself!! I’m a very picky eater and been to many restaurants but this was the most cutest, most genuine, family owned business. This is on my top list of all the restaurants!! Even better than the overpriced Michelin star restaurants! Will definitely visit many more times!😊

The entire experience at this place was visually captivating. From the streamlined menu to the vibrant, healthy foods displayed as the owner prepares your meal right in front of you, every detail was engaging. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, taking the time to explain how to choose the healthiest options. If you ever find yourself in the area, I highly recommend visiting this hidden gem!

I stopped by today and had such a great experience! The shop was super clean, bright, and well-organized — you can tell they really care about their space. The ingredients in my poke bowl were fresh and so flavorful, especially the salmon and spicy salmon. Everything was neatly prepped and the portions felt just right. The workers were really friendly and helpful too — they made the whole process easy and welcoming. Definitely coming back soon!

I had an amazing experience at Grove Poke & Salad Bowl! I ordered a tuna and salmon bowl, and it was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly put together. You can really tell they use high-quality ingredients. What made the experience even better was the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The owners, a sweet mom-and-pop duo, were incredibly friendly and made sure my food was just right. It’s rare to find a place that not only serves great food but also makes you feel at home. Definitely my go-to spot for poke! Highly recommend!

Seres is incredible, and her 40+ years of experience in the restaurant industry truly shine through. I ordered the poke bowl and my friend had the BBQ ribs; both dishes were absolutely delicious. From the moment we walked in, Seres made us feel welcome and continued to check in to make sure we had everything we needed. This place is an easy 5/5.

The food was so delicious. At first I thought my bowl was small and it may not fill me up, but it was packed with 3 different type of protein, rice and veggies. My favorite part of the veggies had to be the pickled radish. New favorite spot! Staff very approachable and helpful.

This place is a local gem! I always walk by Grove, but didn't have a chance to try it until today. This is such a nice , quaint and local spot. It's fast, good portions, and great service! The people are friendly and I love that it's a local family owned shop it seems. I got the traditional Bibimbap: around $14 which includes BOTH beef and pork, well seasoned and tasty. I was able to upgrade to purple rice free of charge in my bowl. You can choose a variety of bases: white rice included. The veggies were plentiful and cooked well. I liked the red sauce and sesame sauce it came with. Overall, delicious food and feels like a homecooked meal at a Korean family's place! Although there was 2 people in front of me during a weekday lunch, they were quick and efficient. Really relaxed and chill atmosphere and clean establishment. Try Grove out! You won't be disappointed whether for a quick, healthy, and tasty lunch or dinner!

Casual restaurant with a wide selection of ramen, sushi burritos, poke and salad bowl, great meaty and hearty vegetarian options. The #9 Vegan Booster Kimbab was a giant sushi burrito loaded with a heap of veggies - lentils, rice, avocado, cucumber, carrots, steamed kale, mushroom, burdock roots surrounded and glued by white sticky rice and seaweed. While the kimbab burrito looked beautiful and Insta-worthy, I was eating chunks of veggies and wish the ingredients were mixed like in a wrap or salad. The kimbab quickly fell apart after a couple of bites and was very messy to eat. I wasn't a fan of the cold lentils, but really enjoyed the burdock, fresh avocado, mushrooms. The rice made the meal quite filling. I got the Tofu Poke Bowl and loaded it up with veggies on a bed of quinoa topped with eel sauce and sesame sauce. The black sesame tofu had a weird flavor and the quinoa was quite soggy. The veggies, tofu, and quinoa didn't quite blend that well together. While I was eyeing my hubby's #16 Chicken Ramen, I decided to throw in the towel on the kimbab (saved it for dinner) and get the #17 Shoyu-soy based vegetarian ramen with tofu. While I enjoyed the heap of cubed tofu, cooked mushrooms, soft egg, scallions, sesame seeds, and oodles of noodles - the broth was quite salty and very savory. Wish it was a bit more balanced out. The service was great and helped to mop up the floor from my little's guy ramen feast on the high chair!

We stopped in on a whim and so glad we did! Staff was friendly, service was fast, and food was delicious! You can order on a kiosk or on paper if you build your own poke or bulgogi bowl. Or you can select one of their recommended creations. We both built our own poke bowls and everything was extra tasty! Tuna was fresh and so were the toppings. You get a lot of choices & most of it is included with no extra charge. Definitely give this place a try!

I think the Hello Hawaii could have maybe used a little more proteins and the pineapple was a bit too tart and wasn't that great of an addition to the poke. However, the poke itself was superb - fresh and well flavored. I would probably order this again and get it customized to change out the pineapple for something else. Friendly service, accessible location.

Wonderful food and the owners are so hospitable. They truly care about the quality of the delicious food they offer. The Spicy Seafood Ramen is a favorite and quite delicious. Excellent!!!

I've found my new poke place! It's a step up in quality from pokeworks by far. Presentation was nice . I had a little trouble ordering at the kiosk screen, I think the touch screen wasn't too sensitive and didn't register what I picked . Other than that I love the option for purple rice! I'm kinda boring and only get plain salmon scoops with crab salad and random veggies .. but the portion is good! I feel like other places make you feel like you get your moneys worth by adding so much rice it feels heavier... but then I just feel bad when I can only eat half of it. Will make this place a regular lunch spot for me!

Tried out Grove Poke recently and it was really great food!! Got a custom Poke bowl and was delicious, fresh and well made. My only complaint they were a little skimpy on the rice, they could honestly add maybe 50% more rice to the bowl to make it a little more substantial. I'll definitely need to try some other items on the menu as so far I've only tried Poke.

I got the #19. The food itself was pretty good. However the service and the way they were making the food was not. They were touching the food while with gloves in so much that it felt unsanitary and it took like way more time to make for a bowl than I would think. I also wasn't a big fan of the ambiance, it just seemed very untidy and unkempt in there. I probably wouldn't return again.

Was looking for a quick healthy bite to eat after work and this definitely met that search. First off, the service was a little slow, but I wasn't in a rush. Food wise, this place hit the spot. I ordered the House Soba, which had Soy Salmon and Shrimp. The meal was fresh, healthy, tasty, and met my craving at the time. Have nothing bad to say about this place and would go again, especially if you're looking for moderately priced healthy poke bowls.

This place is nasty and the staff rude. From touching food with their hands to the mice droppings and roaches I saw when I used the bathroom. We could not eat the food and when we complained the staff was rude about it. I know other reviews were positive about the food, but I'm not sure if those people watched the preparation or looked around closely. We will not be back!!

I stopped here before hopping on the metro, and was greeted with such friendly faces! TLDR: it's a little pricey compared to other places, but also much friendlier and MUCH better quality than other places! 100% coming back! Environment: The place was quiet around 5:30pm on a Wednesday with one person dining in and some bags for takeout. I feel like so many poke places in the area are impersonal fast casual grab and go type of environments. This was a place I felt like you could take time ordering what you want, sit, eat, and just have a nice conversation versus a rush like many other spots. There's a good amount of table seating and window seating for the corner spot on this plaza building. Menu options: I ordered a poke bowl, but they offered numerous things like ramen, sushiritos, teas/drinks, tempura and tofu, Korean bbq, etc. so there's a ton of options besides just poke with fish! Poke bowl: I built my own bowl with spicy salmon, sesame ahi tuna, white rice, and mix ins of vegetables, avocado, and extra crispy onions and garlic. They have a lot of options for the proteins, base, veggies, and toppings. The fish and veggies were all incredibly fresh. The rice was warm and perfectly cooked. There isn't a ton of fish/protein, so I was still hungry after. That's unfortunate due to the cost. However, the fish was SO fresh and tasty that I would still dish out the extra money (ugh) for a third protein serving lol. Ordering: They offer a few ways to order: online for pickup or delivery, in person on the order sheets, or in person on the touch screens. I went with the touch screen which was seamless and easy. There is only one size for the bowl, and I will say depending on the add-ins it can get quite expensive. I added one or two extra add-ins to my bowl (like avocado and extra crisp), Fiji water, and it came to about $20. I completely blanked on the water I'm not sure if this is something customers were supposed to grab from the fridge or if they put it in the to go bag, but that's on me for not realizing it wasn't in there when it was handed over. While it's fantastic that this is not a rush in and out, impersonal, fast food feeling type of place, that also does mean they take time making your food. While I ordered poke and usually other places just throw the ingredients in, the woman was curating my bowl like it was heading to judgment on Chopped. She was very carefully creating my meal (as I could see from the other side of the counter) which I love! I love when people seem to care about the foods they give. When I grabbed my bag she said she gave me extra seaweed because I didn't get many other veggies. I loved this! She was so sweet. I will 100% be back!

I got the sushi burrito and it tastes bland, the fish is off putting. I would not come again.

Never disappointed by the freshness of their ingredients! I particularly enjoy the poke bowls and my husband likes the Korean classic bowl which is basically a hweh-deopbap. We live very close by so we'll walk over with our dog and toddler and grab them to go. I actually ate their poke bowl while I was pregnant and I had no issues. Their ingredients are always clean and fresh. Service is prompt and around dinner rush, it can take a little longer since they assemble everything by hand but it's a nice, refreshing eatery to just sit and wait in. They have tables if you want to eat there. I much prefer this place than some of the more trendy poke places in the area. Some of their veggie ingredients are Korean-inspired and simple but go well with the fish. If you're not into poke, they also have other protein options like chicken, beef, pork, shrimp, and tofu.

Got the soba noodles and the miso soup. It's a make your own, and they gave kiosks or you can go up to the cashier to order. Presentation was very nice and it was dressed really well with sauce. The miso soup didn't really taste like the classic miso soup but it was still delicious. Next time I'll probably try the ramen or the bibimbap.

You think you charge people a high price and give them hafl of the big bowl and think you can bring them back again? You loose customers for your greediness. Besides the bad salad, you are so greedy to ask people to tip you when you're selling them food in exchange for money, you didn't do a shit to ask for tips! Goodbye and never come back, no wonder no one is in your store, bad business it looks like you'll out of business soon!

I love the selection of toppings you can choose from at Grove Poke. They have some unique toppings that I haven't seen elsewhere like baked beets (would highly recommend). Their raw fish also comes in a large variety of different flavors / sauces. Their ingredients tasted very fresh and the bowl sauces were delicious. I do think you get smaller portions of the ingredients compared to other places but the quality is definitely there.

I just had lunch at the Grove. The Grove features poke bowls with vegetables and protein. If you have ever had a Korean Bibimbab, then Grove is for you. My Bibimbab had double seasoned beef, fresh cucumbers, bean sprouts, spinach, carrots, mushrooms, and a fried egg. The dish was delicious, and lightly seasoned. I will be back.

The grove is a small Asian cafe spot on the corner in the Dunn Loring. They have so many options for poke and salad bowls, and all the ingredients were very fresh. I was also surprised to see that they have ramen bowls, soba bowls, rice bowls (Bulgogi, shrimp, pork), and sushirritos. Only after ordering my make-your-own poke, did I see their signature sushirrito which had Bulgogi and shrimp tempura, which looked just as good. There were multiple options for the base for our poke bowl, including purple rice, and quinoa. You could choose up to two proteins, 5 veggie toppings, and various other extra. Although slightly pricier than other poke spots (these bowls were $15/bowl), it is definitely a good alternative option for fast causal in the area.

I love this place I know the lady who owns it and she's is such a sweetie! Every time I come in she tells me what to order and it's so good ! Sushiritto and poke bowl with aloha mayo is so yum :P It's very clean and worth every penny !

They offer sushi burritos, poke bowls, ramen, rice bowls with your choice of meat, smoothies and more! I had a craving for a "home" meal so I opted for one of their original rice bowls - the spicy pork. It was FANTASTIC. The pork was marinated well and was greatly balanced with rice and veggies. I thought it couldn't get any better but they had also added in a couple of spicy sauces on the side - once I mixed it into my bowl I couldn't speak and basically just inhaled the rest of my dinner. The sushi burrito was also good - everything just tasted fresh with high quality. Definitely worth every penny and I can't wait to go through the rest of their menu.

My favorite place! I love the rice bowls, all the ingredients are delicious and fresh and great value for money!

I love the Grove and living right by it! I've only gotten a poke bowl (salmon, tuna, edamame, kimchi, cucumber, pineapple and seaweed salad is my go to) and it never disappoints. The Aloha sauce is delicious. Everything is always fresh and prepared quickly and very generous portions. I need to try the bulgogi bowl and ramen cuz it always smells so good.

Super fresh and tasty bowl with wonderful staff! I made my own bowl and everything in it was delicious. The little egg heart is a cute touch and I really enjoyed the combination of bulgolgi and shrimp. There is indoor seating and service was fast and friendly. Will visit again!

I AM A HUGE FAN OF GROVE! This poke and salad bowl eatery is owned- and run by the sweetest couple, Ms. Seres and Mr. Chris - they are both extremely kind, welcoming, and makes great recommendations and suggestions, based on your taste and preferences! The menu includes poke bowls, sushirritos, bibimbop, salads, soba noodle bowls, and ramen. A group of us came here, and I had the Sushirrito - packed full of your choice of protein and veggies, I opted for the Sriracha salmon, the shrimp tempura, pickled roots, kimchi, scallions, masago, and extra sriracha mayo sauce. YUM! The rice was cooked perfectly, and there were more filling than the rice; the portions were extremely generous, and each of the toppings were FRESH and DELICIOUS! All made-to-order and made with LOVE! Don't forget to try their housemade juice - they also have a Corn Silk beverage that is a great option for those who are watching their sugar and/or are diabetic! My favorite was the beet/apple juice - it was tart and sweet. Also, did you know that all their offerings are free from MSG and are all-natural? A huge plus! I'd love to come back and try out their ramen and their soba noodle bowls. The sushirrito will definitely be in my dining rotation! Parking is limited and metered around the area, but there are parking garages nearby! Carpooling is encouraged. Or, you can also park at the Dunn Loring Metro lot at certain hours and just walk over. Support this small gem of a business! I'm glad that this is an addition to the area, and I can't wait to return! +Sushirrito! +fresh ingredients! +no MSG used! +super sweet owners - Ms. Seres and Mr. Chris! +located across from Harris Teeter +limited metered parking; public garage parking also available!

Located conveniently just outside the Dun Lorring metro stop, this hidden gem is a must try. Fresh, healthy, packed with flavor, and filling! Massive selection of freshly prepared ingredients to customize your bibimbap or gimbap (suhsirito). The selection may be a bit intimidating at first but the chef and staff are passionate about their food and have no problem answering questions or offering suggestions. Be sure to grab a tea to go along with your meal. I recommend the honey ginger.

Giving them a 5/5 because of the sweet eomma who works here and calls me baby the whole time I order, it's free therapy. in all seriousness their food is fresh! And they are so kind

This is my favorite place to go when I work out that way. Venue: it's a great lunch spot. There is no wait staff. You go up order your meal (like a chipotle) pay for it and grab a seat. It's usually take away business. I have never been here and could not find a seat or two. Service: this is a (literal) mom and pop shop. They own the place and have a lot of pride in their shop and food. They are always willing to let you try something. Drinks: here is something special. They have specially made drinks. One is a corn husk drink, which i am told is good for people with Diabetes. There is a beet juice, which is my favorite and a ginger tea also really good. They make these from scratch and are old recipes from back home. Can't find these drinks really any where else. Food: they have bim-mi-bop, sushi burritos, and regular poke bowls. Everything is fresh! And you can mix and add all the ingredients you like. I usually go for the poke rice purple bowl. It's filling but does not give you that food coma slump immediately after. You can also do salad or quinoa as a base. They have a variety of sauces and I always ask for extra, which they are happy to give. Price: it's about $13-15 a bowl. Steep in my eyes. But I end up paying it and enjoying my meal.

Fun place with a lovely engaging owner! She had lots of suggestions and was so enthusiastic she was hard to resist! Food is good quality with lots of options. You can get half salad and rice and a plethora of veggies. Sauces are a bit small if you like soy based sauces. We liked the Korean/ poke fusion bowls!

This hidden gem was a real treat. The food was so good and the owners super nice! Will definitely be going back.

Awesome poke bowl! Everything here is so clean and the food is fresh! I loved my poke bowl and miso soup. The restaurant owners were so nice too. Such a refreshing meal! While we are there, so many pick up orders came to pick up. The owners worked really hard and were friendly to the customers. I recommend Grove!

FAIRFAX, VA 01/08/19 TAKE-OUT LUNCH +Nice, friendly staff members. One lady was kinda very pushy with our order, though. -The salmon was not fresh and had a strong fishy taste. Seafood management and quality control need serious improvement. -A lot of the hot food items looked old, and it looked like it was drying out. Wooekkk. -The sushi burrito is expensive compared to other establishments, and I've been to a few in Washington, D.C. Overall, I am not sure we will be coming back here, as there are so many other options in the Mosaic Fairfax district. Good luck!

I've been to many Poke places and restaurants, Grove just hits the spot with its Bibimbap. The ingredients a fresh and delicious, not to mention the sauce is to die for. I love how the eggs are shaped like little hearts it gives the each bowl character. I highly recommend this place it's worth the trip!!!!

My favorite poke bowl spot in Nova!! The staff is very friendly and they are generous with the portions which I will never complain about! The ingredients always taste fresh and I love their sauce options! Everything is always flavorful! The location is easy to find and it's always nice / clean inside!

Tried the Grove for the first time tonight and OMG it will be the first of many. Had the Aloha Poke Bowl and it was to die for. So fresh and flavorful. Will be a regular now!

The lady who works there is the absolute sweetest! And so passionate about the food! I had no idea what I wanted on my sushiritto and she basically just created it for me. It was SO good! (Also the kimchi and pickled jalapeño are made by her and they're delicious)

Aloha poke bowl delicious and refreshing! Great spot with wonderful and friendly service

The poke here was very nice... too pricey I think, but nice. The only major problem I had is that some of the drinks have artificial flavors, like the one I ordered (which I did not know until I already ordered it). Other than that, everything else was fairly good. The staff seemed nice and the place was very clean.

Amazing fresh food. I got a poke bowl and matcha drink. This is food that makes you feel good, made by people that know what they are doing.

So good!! My favorite place for salad/poke. The little heart shaped egg is so cute and brings a smile to my face. Ingredients are fresh and I love that they offer Korean toppings as well like soy bean sprouts and burdock root. Everything is customizable in various forms like salad, sushirrito, or a bowl.

First time there ten minutes ago! The lady that helped me was so excited about the seaweed wrap I had to try it and I'm so happy I did! Delicious!!! Thank you for your enthusiastic recommendation ! I enjoyed it very much

Take Korean bibimbap and combine it with sushi and you have now encountered the perfect trifecta of awesomeness! How can you not love a place that offers sushi, poke, and Korean. The Korean sushi burrito is out of this world by being both Japanese and Korean. Taking two amazing foods and combining them into a mouth watering delight. . I'm already planning my next visit 1 hour after eating there for the first time.

Tried it once about a year ago and it was amazing - tried it again a couple weeks ago and it was totally different. Smaller portion and the taste didn't sit right with me. They messed up my order and when I called them about it, they pretty much put the blame on me and saying "you were rushing out and we had so many people in here" when really there were 2 other people and I was not rushing at all.

I ordered the Aloha Poke to go along with a taro boba. The owner was nice and showed me how to select the foods on the tablet devices. Friendly and welcoming place, when the order was ready owner recommended a peanut sauce with a little kick which added a new depth of flavor it was delicious. I would definitely come back and try other options and would recommend this place

I had a very tasty meal at The Grove the other week! I ordered one of the salmon poke bowls, and really enjoyed my meal. Everything was very fresh and was made incredibly quickly. I thought it was a little overpriced, but very tasty. I will return in the future for a quick lunch!

So I've been to this place a couple times with my friends and it's become one of my favorite places. There are SO many options. We all tried different things and I think it'll take forever for me to try everything but I think I'm well on my way. The service is always friendly and the owners are very friendly. They are always giving great recommendations and they take pride in the ingredients they prepare in house. So far I've tried the sushiritto, which is great to grab for lunch if you need to carry out. My sister and I have also tried the ramen and udon. The broth is rich and savory and they always make it look so nice! But my favorite is the poke bowl. The Korean in me asks for the Korean spicy sauce- yum! They are also very health conscious so they have grains and bases like purple rice and quinoa. I appreciate they have low carb options but I'm sticking with my white rice y'all. But that's not all! They have these healthy homemade teas (corn husk? Ginger mint?) which doesn't strike my interest too much but my friends liked them. I stuck with the boba tea. Because they had a coffee milk tea that called my name and I answered. Yes please. So if you're ever on the metro, step off of the Dunn Loring stop for a sec and try it out. It's pretty amaze-balls and they have something for everyone. Oh and they work with a delivery thing too. And they're a pokestop. Which matters to me. Lol.

Yummy food here!!! food are fresh and tasty, bubble tea taste gooood I love their bobas yummmmmm

I was craving a poke bowl so we decided to try Grove. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted with friendly faces. Since it was our first time, they explained how it worked - if you want to make your own bowl, you take a sheet of paper and mark everything you want on it, from the type of grain to the meat and veggies and other extras. My husband tried their tonkatsu ramen. They also offer salad, noodles, and bibimbap. Both of our meals were soooo fresh and delicious. If I'm in the area again, I'll definitely come back.

I was excited to try this place since it's right across from OrangeTheory and we typically rotate between food options in this area after working out. The restaurant is right next to Harris Teeter in the corner across from the Dunn Loring Metro station and Starbucks. They specialize in bowls (poke, bibimbap, salad, noodles, pasta) as well as sushiritos and ramen. I chose a poke bowl and since I wanted to try to eat as clean as possible, chose the premium toppings that included a surcharge. As I picked each topping... Me: "I'd like quinoa". Girl: "That's extra". Me: "May I have tuna, salmon (2 proteins are included) as well as crabmeat salad?" Girl: "That's extra". Me: "May I also have _____ (went over the 5 veggie limit that's included in the price)". Girl: "That's extra". Me: *annoyed* "May I add avocado? I know it's extra". I could clearly read the large menu behind her and saw that all of my options were extra, and didn't flinch at my decision. I only felt annoyed when she told me after each topping I picked would cost more. My husband picked a sushirito and the lady who assisted him was pushy and told him to add additional toppings that he didn't care for. Overall, the meal was average and pricey for the area and I've had better at other establishments within the area. Maybe I'll try again in the future, but I'd rather stick with our usual rotation of food options after working out.
