Poké Garden Brookline

I ordered through uber eats. I customized the bowl with sauce on the side. It was fresh. The dumplings are very small in size.

I got take out poke bowls and they were both really delicilious. I got my partner the ahi tuna bowl on salad. He said it was really tasty, but the salad was just big chunks of lettuce and not cut up quite right. That was the only negative remark. I got a build your own bowl with tofu and shrimp tempura with corn, seaweed salad, avocado, and edamame with spicy mayo. It was SO GOOD! The person behind the counter was so nice. I will absolutely be back often. The inside might not look super fancy and what not, but it's worth the try.

I wanted a quick high protein dinner option so I opted for Sashimi. I never complain about price, but the quality of the fish especially the octopus was completely unacceptable. It had been freeze dried and had turned into a tasteless jerky. The salmon and the tuna was fine and suitable for human consumption but at $9 per two pieces (less than 1.5 oz) it was of poor quality. With prices like this you’d at least expect some elevated but basic condiments such as Shiso leaves or ginger. Neither was provided. The tea was served by hand and the waiter was holding the entire rim of the glass so I couldn’t even drink my tea. Avoid if you care about basic quality, service, and a somewhat sensible quality to price ratio.

A cozy restaurant with a large menu of sushi, bowls, and ramen. The vegetarian ramen was delicious, just the right spiciness level. Service was pretty quick and friendly. A handful of small tables inside for seating.

This is a very small place but feels very authentic inside. I got two pretty plain rolls (rainbow and cali) and I wish I would have tried something fancier because I get the impression they’d put more love into the better rolls. Still my lunch was tasty and I left pleased with the order.

They had the order prepared under 10 minutes and it tasted great! I had ordered ahead for quick pickup (due to COVID-19) and it was a very easy and relaxed process. Below are some pictures of the interior and food that I ordered. This includes the Beef Ramen, shrimp teriyaki, scallion pancake, and seaweed salad.

Probably not official ramen, but I prefer these types of noodles over ramen from most other places. Large portions of pork belly for the pork belly ramen and decent flavors. The beef is not so good.

The food is amazing. The salmon and tuna was delicious. The El and cucumber were incredibly fresh, and the flavor that it had was amazing! Definitely coming back for another bowl!
