"This tiny spot isn’t made for big parties, and its tiny patio is a nice spot to spend a working lunch hour, or bring a book to enjoy with that bowl of poke. Service is quick, despite all the orders being custom, and they don’t mind if you linger a bit to enjoy that big, fresh bowl." - Courtney E. Smith
"Some of the city’s finest poke can be found at the Austin location of the Dallas-based chain. The menu was after all created by lauded chef Matt McCallister. Pickup orders can be placed online or in person; there are DoorDash deliveries; and there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Eater Dallas’s casual restaurant of the year in 2019, Malibu Poke upped Austin’s poke game with fresh, thoughtful bowls created by James Beard Award-nominated chef Matt McCallister, found in downtown Austin. Takeout orders can be placed online." - Elizabeth Leader Smith
"Independent restaurants operate on the most razor-thin of margins, and that’s at 100 percent of their normal capacity. By only allowing restaurants to serve less than 25 percent of their normal patron volume, establishments won’t make enough money to cover their operating costs. As TJ’s Seafood and Malibu Poke owner Jon Alexis put it, the new capacity is the financial equivalent of tipping a server a quarter." - Amy McCarthy
"Jon Alexis, owner of two TJ’s Seafood Market locations and the Malibu Poke mini-chain, says that he’s not willing to risk the safety of his patrons and employees for such a marginal increase in revenue." - Amy McCarthy
