"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
"A quick-lunch poke spot serving bright, fresh bowls — the spicy chili tuna on a base of riced cauliflower is notably tangy and packs serious heat. The dish is distinguished by a threaded red chili garnish and liberal use of jalapeños, delivering strong spice without regret." - Courtney E. Smith
"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
"Speaking for Malibu Poke, owner Jon Alexis said the 25 percent capacity limit is the financial equivalent of tipping a server a quarter, calling it 'not the slightest bit feasible' because 25 percent doesn’t allow bringing on any extra staff — it would just be the same staff working to-go orders but working harder." - Amy McCarthy
