Customizable poke bowls, Spam musubi, fresh fish, Korean flair
"Back in a new permanent home after pausing its run at sandwich shop Black Hogg in 2020, this popular poke shop from the team behind Bodega Park has turned its warm, wood-clad room off Sunset Boulevard into a Silver Lake power lunch spot with quick service and ahi tuna–laden bowls starting just under $20. As long as you can find parking (not too bad mid-day), grabbing a bowl takes under 20 minutes and beats any sad desk lunch. Build your own with two proteins, a base, and two banchan—go for spicy tuna slicked in orange-hued mayonnaise, salty shoyu salmon, a half rice/half kale base, and kimchi cucumber. Add a snack-sized Spam musubi set on a cube of gently compressed white rice to stash in the fridge for later. It’s vegan-friendly, too: try the vegan poke made with shoyu- and ginger-marinated beets, and confirm which banchan are also vegan. Expect loosely scheduled creatives and parents en route to school pickup, and note that drinks are limited; Bodega Park next door has you covered." - Rebecca Roland
"Silver Lake’s poke shop makes a case for heading away from the shore, with a warm, wood-clad dining room centered around a marble ordering counter the color of a matcha latte before it gets mixed. From the team behind Bodega Park, it returns in its own permanent home after pausing its run at sandwich shop Black Hogg in 2020. Poke bowls—available as set choices or build-your-own—dominate the menu, complemented by Spam musubi and sides like seaweed salad and kimchi cucumber. The build-your-own bowl lets you choose one or two poke like shoyu tuna, chile garlic shrimp, spicy tuna, or vegan beet poke over a base of white rice or chopped kale. The bowls are on the pricier side ($19 for the regular) but servings are generous, and the fish is as fresh as it comes." - Eater Staff
"After disappearing from Silver Lake a few years ago, this casual wood-paneled Hawaiian spot has reemerged one door over from its former home, right next to Bodega Park (they have the same owner). Most of the food calls back to the old menu, with a few curated poke bowls and sides like japchae, kimchi salad, and mac salad, plus spam musubi." - cathy park

"You can't mess with the toppings at Ohana Poke Co., but telling these guys what to do would be like telling Spielberg how to direct dinosaurs. Sometimes it's best to let experts take the lead. Although they do the traditional ahi shoyu bowl, there are also some great alternatives, like the Korean octopus in a chili base. All bowls come with a side (the ponzu glass noodle are a good choice) and are topped with traditional furikake and very untraditional wasabi peas. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
