I have been dying to try this place for so long! I have been seeing posts on Instagram of their poke burritos, pizzas, and donuts for a while. While I was a little upset to not see the pizza on their menu when I visited tonight, I did order the donut! Because, I had to...
Parking is plentiful as Poke Burri is located in a small shopping plaza. I was surprised by how modern and new-looking the inside looked when we walked in. So cute! I love the bar seating, wall art, and that they have tables blocked off for safe dine in eating.
Since I had been wanting to check them out for so long, I overindulged and decided to order the half tuna-half salmon poke bowl, a salmon donut, the spicy tuna poke nachos, and my boyfriend ordered a build your own bowl. He said his bowl was really good! I'm not sure what he had on it though. The nachos were also really good but think Sushioki in Durham still has my favorite. My poke bowl was very fresh and had a generous portion of salmon and tuna. I really enjoyed it! I wish the portions of everything were a little bigger or that there were more topping options but other than that it was all great. The most disappointing and underwhelming part of my first experience here was definitely the salmon donut. WAY too much rice with the thinnest layer of salmon and small bit of avocado. If there were more sauce, the rice would be more palatable but mine was pretty dry, dense, and hard to eat. The salmon and avocado were lost. I wouldn't order this item again but I would order the others. I'm interested in trying one of their burritos!
It was a last minute decision to get takeout, so we ordered in person and ended up waiting around 15-20 minutes for our food which wasn't bad at all. They had several take out orders be picked up during the time we were there so it looked like they were busy! As we were waiting, they even offered us water which we didn't accept, but was appreciated.
The staff was wearing masks and gloves and there is a plexiglass barrier between the customers and the cashier. Hand sanitizer is available and they have 6ft distancing stickers on the ground. Nice!!
Overall, I'd recommend Poke Burri and would come back to try some new items and even reorder a couple of the same!
