Lei'd Hawaiian Poke

Nice Poke Bowl place in Tyson’s Corner. Really enjoyed their bowls. Nice indoor seating. Nothing outside. Ordering on iPads. 3 sizes - regular, large, and XL. Recommend for a quick Poke bowl. 4.5/5

Built my own bowls comprised of 4 proteins and an assortment of condiments. Though both bowls were flavorful I will say that some pieces of poke were very chewy and tasted fishy. That was the only drawback and might have been a result of me arriving shortly after they opened.

Absolutely diabolical amount of pickled ginger in the bowl. I had to pick them out. Fish portion wasn't bad for the price.

The new hand rolls are really good. I got spicy tuna, spicy shrimp, and salmon avocado, but of those three I thought the spicy tuna was the best. These are easy to eat and convenient on the run. I usually get the bowls at this establishment. Have yet to ask if they offer first responder military discount.

Poke bowls were good 👍🏼 I liked the salmon more than the tuna here. Wasn’t a fan of the shrimp or the crab. Sauces were really good. Vegetables and ingredients were fresh Ordering was easy and staff were very friendly.

Don’t listen to the reviews talking about “generous portions”. The regular poke bowl (2 scoops protein) is actually the smallest bowl I’ve had in the DC area (I’m a local). It’s the size of my hand and I’m an average sized woman. Just go elsewhere. For $17 somewhere else your bowl would last you at least 2 meals. Finished this one in 1 sitting, smh.

Quality has plummeted at this location. I honestly can't recommend this restaurant to anyone anymore. I ordered a large bowl and the picture shown is what I received. Not a single bite was taken. Where are my 3 scoops of salmon?? I even reached out to customer service because I was so annoyed with what I had received. Never heard back from them. Still waiting. If you want a poke bowl, please go elsewhere.

I really don’t like writing negative reviews, but I left feeling disappointed enough that I think it’s worth mentioning. The fish was honestly tough and chewy. The portion size was shockingly small, especially given the price. On top of that, our orders came out wrong, which just added to the frustration. The flavor was fine—not bad, but nothing to redeem the overall experience. I wanted to like it 🙁

FOOD I visited around 2pm and ordered a custom salmon bowl with jalapeños, tomatoes, cucumbers, pineapples, and more. The amount they provide of each topping is generous, and the quality of the ingredients compared to other poke places in the area is amazing. I'd definitely stop by here if craving poke! SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly. There are about three kiosks in the front from which to order. AMBIANCE The interior has ample seating and is very clean. Restrooms are available in the back. Parking Parking spots are available at the front of the store at a somewhat limited capacity during mealtime.

I got my Uber eats order. Everything was correct and tasted good. There are other poke places that offer more add in options. There was plenty of fish which was nice. I think the order thing was kind of a scam. They advertised this MEGA bowl ($43 value) free with $20 purchase so I got that. Reality was I got a small $20 bowl and a free large bowl. It definitely isn't a $43 value. My total was still a wopping $45 with the high taxes and fees due to this inflated estimated value.

decided to stop by Lei'd Poke because of its stellar reviews and my eagerness to try it out. The restaurant only offers ordering through a machine, which was a bit unusual but manageable. I ordered a large spicy salmon bowl with added masago, totaling $20. When my order arrived, I was taken aback by the small size of the bowl given the price. The portion of salmon and masago was disappointingly minimal, almost nonexistent. Instead, the bowl was filled with a disproportionate amount of tomato and jalapeño, which was unexpected and a bit off-putting. While the flavor of the bowl was good, the overall portion size was quite small and didn't justify the high price. In summary, the taste was satisfactory, but the portion size was a letdown. I hope they reconsider their portion sizes. If they do, I might consider coming back.

My favorite poke bowl place. Their toppings are awesome and I love their soba noodles. Idk other places with this option but I prefer it over rice. So so flavorful and saucy, i love throwing in whatever and everything always pairs so well together. Even if you don't know what to get its gonna taste amazing...

Unexpectedly excellent poke place! Looks like any other fast casual bowl place, but the quality of the food is very high. I think the secret is the fish already being flavored and marinated. The service was really great--super friendly and helpful staff! We were not expecting such a gem!

Kind of mid in terms of Poke despite the high Yelp rating. While I did Uber eats, they got my order wrong and I got white rice instead of forbidden rice. Fish is okay--not the best quality, but not slimy and gross. A fair amount of fish, but it's already kind of mixed around. Okay for lunch, but nothing stood out to me.

Greatly located right next to a boba shop - this poke place is the perfect meal to have on the go! I say to go because their seating area looks more like a cafeteria ~ Their bowls are made pretty swiftly and easy to customize using their kiosks! There are various options to add as well as some sides too! I tried their taro chips and they were pretty good but wish they were preferably more crispier (some were a bit soft ) Plenty of sauce was provided and I do think there were plenty of fish pieces! Overall, 8.7/10 would definitely come back when craving Poke!

Not sure if Lei'd is struggling big time or what, but there are now so many restrictions here, that's it's totally not worth it. We came here to get a poke bowl, but they don't even allow in-person ordering; there are 3 ordering kiosks in front of the food case, and 'customizing' is not even what you call it - there are hardcore limitations in terms of trying to add toppings for your bowl (we couldn't bypass adding more than the allotted '3', and none of staff members were willing to help and just stated that that's just the way it is). We decided to go to another establishment. +limitations on toppings +non-customizable +unhelpful staff +no in-person ordering allowed; only usage of kiosks

Ordered delivery from UberEats a couple of times and loved the poke bowls every time. Limu tuna is a good flavor. Will definitely be ordering delivery more.

Tried this out while on business travel. Made my own bowl in an exploration of my first poke bowl. The options were a little dizzying and the tablet entry system not the most user friendly. But I was the only guest at the time so it was fine. The food was quickly delivered and it tasted good. No complaints on the food. I think a wider dish would be nice, if only to better access the ingredients at the bottom. I liked it.

I came for the sushi bake, but now they only have a poke bowl line up like a chipotle and you order at the kiosk. I could be wrong but it wasn't shown on the screens or their paper menus but they don't sell sushi bakes anymore. Petition to bring it back! The bowl I got was nicely packed however, and they give you up to 7 options for adding stuff besides the rice and protein. They have a lot of seating which is nice.

You can add multiple toppings and sauces to your bowl. I did a mobile order, and the order was quickly prepared. The salmon portions are a little small compared to the amount of rice and toppings there are. There are multiple tables inside for dining in.

I came to Lei'd Poke to pickup some takeout on a Sunday afternoon. Parking is not an issue, the parking lot is shared by a handful of retailers. My family and I came here shortly after they had just opened. It was quiet and a few other customers were already inside. There are several self serve ordering screens which I really like... I can take my time looking over the menu without worrying about holding up the line since there are multiple screens. The poke bowl I order was delicious, all the ingredients were fresh and the sauces were flavorful. I really liked the Wasabi Cilantro drizzle, it had just the right amount of spice without being too much. Since we were one of the first customers we saw staff prepping alot of ingredients for the day. They were cutting up veggies fresh for the day. The bowls are somewhat pricier than other poke spots in the area, but to me it is worth it if the ingredients are fresh :) Overall I had a great experience here... the staff were even sweet enough to try to interact with my son as we were waiting for our takeout order. I would definitely come back here the next time I am craving a poke bowl :)

Delicious poke bowls with a generous portions and a galore of toppings to choose from! The sesame tofu was flavorful and loaded my bowl up with seaweed salad and veggies (carrots, cucumber, edamame) and topped it off with shredded nori and toasted sesame seeds. It was so flavorful that I didn't even need to add avocado and next time will skip it! The heaping $2.75 upcharge for Smashed Avocado isn't worth it. Just skip it and the sad looking avocado wasn't looking very fresh. It actually detracted from the flavor. The creamy roasted Sesame sauce and the Eel sauce were both tasty and elevated the flavor. Excited to come back and grab some tea next door at Teas'n You and a poke bowl at Lei'd Poke!

Very friendly staff with quick service. Food was delicious - nice and fresh tasting. Highly recommend.

We went around 7:15pm on a Sunday and they were out of all rice and noodle bases so we were left with salad or nachos. Apparently they ran out and it was too close to closing time to make more. Then we found out they were out of several options of seasoned salmon and tuna. When it got time to pick toppings, they were also out of at least 4 items... we should have just left but had already committed at this point. When they started constructing this sad bowl, we stared in confusion as they started scooping everything with gloved hands. No spoon, no tongs... just hands, including the fish. At least they replaced the soiled glove after each scoop, but how wasteful. They probably went through 4 pairs of gloves for one large bowl. Although they wore gloves, it was pretty gross to watch. The portions were also pretty stingy as some other reviewers have commented on. What a disappointment!

Tried ordering from this restaurant off of uber eats and was confused why they were pricing everything so high only to make it 50% off.... Poke bowls are priced at $40 but you get a discount to make it $20 and get a free ($40 value) bowl. Got to checkout and realized why- the service fee is a percentage of your total before discounts, I understood why they are pricing all of their items 2x. Made me not want to order from them as this is deceiving

I have been here once in 2019 and visited again recently this past Friday afternoon for the second time. Both times, my experience have been average. My friend who I ate with recently enjoyed her experience, so maybe it's just a miss for me? I personally would recommend getting one of their Signature Bowls instead of customizing. BYO POKE BOWL (MEDIUM BOWL) - 14.40 Two scoops of protein for the medium bowl, so I got both salmons with the classic shoyu and honey miso marinades. For the base, I got a mix of mixed greens and white sushi rice (they do not have brown rice option here, I think). A few of my go-to add-ons are premium options here (which means you have to pay more) such as crab salad and masago. I ended up paying +0.95 for masago and got green onions, seaweed salad, edamame, shredded nori, house furikake, crispy garlic (maybe) and toasted sesame seeds. I personally would not recommend more than 1 scoop of seaweed salad, as it is pretty saucy and strong. I did get a couple sauces on the side (spicy sriracha aioli and reamy roasted sesame) but didn't use them because the seaweed salad and marinades on the fish was more than enough for me. Overall, I thought it was OK. Some of the salmon had a "gummy" or "gooey" ish texture. Not sure if that meant it was too cold or something else. The toppings were OK/standard. Nothing amazing. I wish I got all white rice to cushion the amount of sauce from all the toppings and marinade. Overall, Lei'd Poke is more expensive than other poke places I go to in the area. The perk is that it's right next to Teas'n You (both owned by the same parent company, Happy Endings, I think) and their boba is a great dessert/cafe option afterwards.

Lei'd poké is the best poke in the NoVa area and the closest that we've found in high quality like we had in Guam. You order off one of the three iPad kiosks - you can pick from a premade bowl or build your own. It's really simple and they're behind the counter ready to answer any questions you may have. Once you order it takes less than 10min for them to complete your order and then you're ready to sit at one of the three communal tables and have the best poke in the area!

Highly recommend the tuna poke here. Reminds me of the kind of poke you get at Hawaii--the consistency of the tuna is not the dry kind you typically see in sushi/Japanese cuisine. Very cute interior and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. I also like how you can order on a kiosk as this makes the ordering process very simple and the order comes out extremely quickly.

My wife's favorite poke place in Northern Virginia. Situated close to the side entrance of Tysons Corner Mall, sits Lei'd Poke. It belongs to the happy eatery food group and is tucked away on the side of a small shopping/business center. The store itself is relatively small with one main order counter and seating for up to about ~25-30. The selection is extremely expansive and the fish tasted very fresh. The price is albeit a little on the higher end but they do not skimp on portion. The bowl was absolutely packed and more than enough to fill you up for a meal. There were many different options for fish marinade (as well as an option for no marinade) which gave way to many potential flavor combinations. Overall a great place for a poke bowl day or night.

The quality of their product has gone downhill. I am disappointed since this used to be our go-to poke place. The rice has a gummy/chewy consistency. The salmon and tuna still had the silver skin on it, which added to the fishy taste. The shrimp looked like they were the baby shrimp you get in a cheap Las Vegas shrimp cocktail and not much flavor. It's sad because their prices have gone up, but the quality went down.

My assessment? SOO GOOD. I walked into a clean establishment with friendly staff, and a good variety of fish and toppings. What more could you ask for? Actually, I have that answer. Generous portion! And this place didn't disappoint. I had a hard time finishing my large bowl because it was a lot. This is also the only Poke place I've been too that offers fresh wonton style chips as a base. They're soooo light and crispy! Loved those. I would definitely recommend stopping in if you're nearby.

This is one of the few places that can satisfy my cravings for poke bowl! You have the option to choose from their curated signature bowls or build your own bowl. I got the Classic Ahi for take out. When I took it back to work, it was still fresh and tasty. It was also a decent portion size mixed in with the rice and all the other toppings. Their service was quick, but I usually have minimal interaction with the staff because I order through the Toast Takeout app or their self-service kiosks. There is a good amount of parking spaces in front of the restaurant so it was simple to pick up the order and go!

This was a legit place to eat Poké in Nova!!!! My favorite thing about this place was the Poké nachos they have here. The chips are very good and make all difference. It's almost like a wonton chip type of things, it's very flaky and crisp and you can tell they it make it fresh. Another really cool thing about is they give you a lot of food. You're definitely not gonna leave this place hungry. I like the vibe in the restaurant, right on Leesburg so it's convenient and the workers do a good job. The flavors were ok, I'll be honest I wasn't in love with any of the sauces I've tried but the fish is very very fresh and really good. Solid choice if you're in the area

Love Lei'd! Service is fast, the employees are really friendly, and the bowls are sooo good! There's a good amount of toppings to choose from and the fish is super fresh. I usually don't even need any sauces because my bowl is already super flavorful as it is.

Wasn't going here since pandemic hit . I was in the area and went there ... they are amazing and food -seafood and all the ingredients are always spot on . I'll be visiting them more often

I've probably gotten food from here at least a dozen times, and each time, the food has been fresh and tasty. I went today after receiving an email about how they added new items to their menu... but ironically enough, I only noticed that they took stuff away. I haven't been here in a few months, but I see that: 1. They raised their prices (a regular bowl used to be around $12-13, now it's $15-16) 2. They got rid of their "kids' size" portion 3. They got rid of musubi 4. Their ToastTab online order menu no longer has descriptions of the items (I don't remember what sort of sauces "Get Lei'd" or "Sea Salt Limu" is off the top of my head; it'd be nice to have a description in the menu item, which they used to. Not sure why they got rid of descriptions) 5. Their regular bowls seem smaller, now smaller than my hand! And i have small hands! #5 might not be an actual change, as it's possible I just never realized how small it was before... but in the light of 20%+ price increases, the size is more noticeable. Today is also the first time the food doesn't seem fresh. I know tuna oxidizes quickly, so the gray coloring in the photo doesn't necessarily mean it's bad, but it still looks highly unappetizing. Not sure if this is the "sea salt limu" tuna or the spicy sriracha tuna (I got both in my bowl), but either way, I'm surprised a poke restaurant doesn't have the CO "gassing" technology to keep tuna looking fresh. I think the gray coloring, the menu deletions, and the high price increases make me rate this place 3 stars, even though it used to be a 5 in my book. They do have more options than other poke places in the area, but nonetheless, I can (and will) make it at home from now on.

Love how there are so many protein options to choose from here! Ingredients are fresh, they don't skimp on their scoops of protein/toppings, and the price is reasonable. Ordering could take awhile as you order on the iPad, so have some patience as some customers may take awhile to do this. When I come to Lei'd Poke, I usually get a regular bowl (two scoops of protein) with white sushi rice, citrus yuzu salmon, Sriracha aioli tuna, jalapeños, green onions, cucumber salad, seaweed salad, and tempura flakes. So good! While you wait for your bowl to be made, head over to Teas'N You (one of their sister restaurants) for some bubble tea to wash down your poke.

I finally found my favorite poke spot!!! I've been to a decent amount of poke spots in DC/NoVA and i either thought they were just alright or I did not like them. Lei'd really stood out to me though! They had a great variety of choices, their ingredients were very fresh and great quality, and they give a generous amount of food. I feel like the fish are bigger/more substantial than other places too. I don't live the closest to Lei'd but anytime I'm really craving poke or want a super satisfying poke bowl, I will be there!!

Lei'd has become our go-to when we want something "light" and fresh. My usual order is a BYO large with white rice, a side of the crispy wonton chips, Honey Miso Salmon, Shoyu Tuna and Lei'd Shrimp. Bunch of toppings on top as well (varies) but all up to preference. The bowls are fairly hefty and they can definitely satisfy a craving. It's no Hawaii but about as good as it gets around here! Small parking lot. Hit up teas n you for dessert as well!

Conclusion: only place that has ever made me order a second bowl in a single sitting. It was good. I was glad I finally came here to try this place. Delicious. A bit slow in making the dish, but they are making a good bowl of food and it was piled on. I didn't feel like I was cheated on the dish because the amount of food was good. The flavor has it going for it and I can see why this place has a lot of good ratings. If you're in the area, it's a good try. They are owned by the same group as the other high rated places in the area. They all have their own unique spin.

Located in a little shopping complex between the mall and the Marriott. Parking was plentiful for a Saturday lunch time with open seating inside the restaurant. You order off a tablet located right in front of where they are preparing the bowls so they can easily accessible if you have any questions. The portions and hearty and the sauces were on point. The taro chips and fresh avocado smash were perfect compliments to the bowl. The extra chips are tasty topped with and dipped in to the bowl. Overall wonderful experience, priced just above average (after all the additions was a $20 bowl), hearty portions, and fast friendly smiling service! Highly recommend and enjoy!

Fresh & tasty!! I spent almost $50 on food here.... just for myself lol! I got a large Poke bowl and bento box..& Mac salad. It's was MY PLEASURE to devour all this food in the confines of my car.

This has been for years our favorite poke place for year. But today I was pretty disappointed when we showed up and they said they were out of rice. They only had black rice and would asked since they didn't have regular rice would they be waving the up charge for the black rice. The girls behind the counter politely said no they still have to charge for it. I'll take this as a one off experience because the dozen of times we've been here before have been exceptional. But of additional concern it was freezing in Lei'd which I wouldn't have thought too much of but then we went down the street to Roll Play their sister location and it was freezing in there as well. Hard to ignore tell tale signs of cost cutting.

We got curbside for 1 large poke bowl and the brûlée musubi and boy oh boy! So glad we did! For the poke bowl, the salmon and tuna were fresh and I really liked the other toppings like corn, pineapple, mango, and edamame. The brown rice we got was just slightly on the dry side but honestly, the whole bowl was still good! The star of the show for me was the brûlée musubi. This in itself deserves a full 5 stars. It's not too salty and love the combination of kewpie Mayo and caramelozes brown sugar on top. So good! This will be a regular order for us if we lived nearby. Can't wait to go back and try this place again!

Poke ~ it's what's for lunch! My son adores this place and prefers it over our 2 min away Poke spot in The Block (shhhhh don't tell them lol), granted this is only 10 minutes away it's not a big deal at all when you're going for what you love. They are part of the Happy Endings Hospitality Group which also owns Roll Play, Tea's n You, & Chasin' Tails. Such a great group & love their fun play on their names. I enjoyed the many different options on my "make your own bowl" that I was like a kid in a Poke candy shop hahaha. Their bowls are delicious & more traditional to what Poke should be and I love the sushi rice option. They also have nachos, which we have not tried... yet! ;) Great food & great service!

You order here on a touch screen. The poke bowl was good, what you would expect. They have a lot of free toppings but they were out of masago and the crab salad was an additional charge. The dining area was a bit messy and seemed like it needed more frequent cleanings. There were also extra chairs and things stacked around that made the dining area less inviting. There is a small parking lot out front which makes it convenient to visit here.

I am sad to even be writing this review. This used to be my favorite poke place (as you can see from my previous review), but now I'm not sure that I will come back. Everything that made this poke place unique from all the other options now seems to be gone. I understand that COVID has had a huge impact on restaurants, but I used to go out of my way to travel here and now I will just go to the place down the street. What has changed? - Prices have risen for less food, 2 bowls without any extras is now $32. - You used to get unlimited toppings and there were so many more options of toppings/sauces. Now you are limited to a certain amount and there are way less options. Several things now have an upcharge. - There is no longer a kids option that has 1 choice of fish - The regular option they have is much smaller than it used to be. It's probably actually the kids bowl size that they used to use. - No more musubi or Hawaiian sun drinks - You order at a machine instead of with the people who are working. They used these machines during COVID, so I get that they should continue using them, especially as it allows them to make orders faster, but I noticed the other recent reviews mention how this makes it less personal and I can see that. - 4.5% restaurant recovery charge added. They have a sign in all their locations with a QR code to view a letter from the CEO, but the link doesn't work. They must have taken the letter off their website. I completely understand the need for this but the higher prices, this charge and less options with less food make me not want to drive out of my way to get here. This is really sad. This was our favorite poke place.

I first found this place at Smorgasburg pre-pandemic, and I fell in love. I went religiously. Traveled half an hour for, paid ridiculous amount of money to UberEats when I didn't want to make the trip. But then everything changed literally 10 minutes ago when I found out they revamped their menu. This quickly went from being the best poke place in NOVA, to just another poke place that exists selling basic dishes you can get wherever nowadays. They got rid of the items that made Lei'd stand out from the rest--wonton nachos and poke bakes. :( It's still good, but it's just another shop now. RIP, poke nachos. I loved you.

My favorite poke place in northern Virginia. Unlike most other poke places, I like that they marinade the fish and it's not just mixed in sauce at the time of order. I think that the portion for their regular bowl is on the small side, and I usually find myself still hungry. But I think that everything here is tasty. The Classic Shoyu Tuna and the Citrus Yuzu Salmon are my favorites. I find that compared to other options, they are simple seasonings that also enhance the flavor of the actual fish without overpowering it. They seem to run out of ingredients often, so I recommend at least checking their online ordering website to see what they do and don't have available. I also think that the location is inconvenient at times. I usually come from the other side of Leesburg Pike and there's no light to turn into where the shop is located. With that said, it's definitely worth the visit!

I heard from a colleague that Lei'd is one of the best Poké spots in the area so as a recent enthusiast, I decided to give them a try and I was not disappointed! I love that Lei'd has a touch screen menu that you use to order your food as it helps to minimize ordering anxiety when choosing from the wide variety of options that they have available. I ordered the Large BYOB with Ahi Tuna and Wild Caught Shrimp. The portion size is actually a large unlike other places in the area. All of the ingredients tasted super fresh and I loved that you could order Dole Whip or Taro Chips as other Poké places in the area don't typically offer that.

Amazing food, great prices and friendly staff! I will definitely be back if my travels take me back to Tysons Corner,

Pricey but delicious. I went at the end of the night and ordered a salmon sushi bake. They had already thrown away all the sushi rice so I substituted in soba. Not the same but still great! Portion was big enough that I didn't feel ripped off by the $18 price tag after fees. Would order again! The staff is also pleasant.

I love this place. Whenever I'm in town I have to get poke here. Everything is fresh and delicious. I'm trying to watch calories, and I like that they have zucchini noodles as an option, because sometimes salad mix gets boring. The portions are great as well. The honey miso salmon is my absolute favorite.

I was excited to eat here for the first time since COVID started but I was sorely disappointed. Poké nachos were my go-to, but they replaced them with taro chips. I thought that would be an adequate replacement but nope. I had to pay for them as a separate side, and they were stale! Strike one. Strike two was the portion sizes. The scoops are so much smaller than they used to be. My husband had to buy another ounce of tuna because three scoops wasn't enough. We used to get full off of three but not anymore. The final strike was the price. After waiting for over a year to return to Lei'd we spent close to $50 for a small serving of subpar poké. I used to like it here but I'm done with this place.

One of best poke in the DMV! They're food is always consistent and the fish are fresh! My recent favorite combo is white rice with nachos with your choice of protein. The nachos gives a good crunch and texture. They do offer soba noodles instead of rice which is tasty but personally feel like they don't give enough noodles. Musubi and Mac salad are okay. Haven't tried their sushi bakes or bento boxes so that's another review in the future.

I've had poke bowls in Hawaii and this one is def up there! I absolutely love how I can get fried wonton chips on the side to make poke nachos. I can't wait to get another one on my next layover.
