Fresh, customizable poke in Charleston, SC! Portion sizes were large and zucchini noodles were available if you do not want rice as your base! The salmon was incredibly fresh and practically melts in your mouth. The restaurant is “off the beaten path” but staff were friendly, seating was available and many soft drink/juice options were offered. Despite not being right on the main streets of Charleston, Poke Tea House is an easy walk to the main happenings. Pre-packed wasabi and ginger were also available and as a regular poke diner, this was a top notch stop!

My absolute favorite spot for boba tea in Charleston! Poke is always fresh and delicious, and the owners are lovely. We’ve been going to Poke Tea House for 5+ years and plan to keep going for many more!

The picture does not do it justice! This is the best poke bowl I’ve had since I used to live in Oakland, CA years ago in Chinatown. So good, so flavorful, so fresh. Every bite had flavor and crunch and that umami bite. Delicious!

I'm not sure why people open restaurants just to make them look and operate like a teenagers bedroom. I love poke, but I don't accept substandard and bland meals that cost. Turns out you don't even order a meal here. You just scribble what you want on a note, and they add it up into the machine. I got a pretty regular bowl with minimal sides because you're limited at every single turn. The food wasn't anything spectacular. I didn't finish the half hearted bowl and left to get a better lunch down the street. The interior is just boxes of stuff stacked everywhere, so it feels very cluttered to exist in the space. Not worth it.

Food is so fresh and delicious!!! The poke bowls are amazing and the bubble tea with tapioca is so good. Prices are so reasonable considering how much fresh food ingredients is in the bowl, and it’s a lot of food and is very filling. I got the spicy chicken poke bowl and my partner got the salmon poke bowl and everything was awesome. I highly recommend stopping here.

One of my favorite restaurants, with one of my favorite dishes. Friendly staff. Always on point with suggestions. My favorite aspect is the customization. Seems near limitless. Fresh ingredients, interesting teas, and chill vibes. Park in the Hyatt garage, bring your parking ticket from the garage with you, and they can assist with the cost.

The honeydew drink was okay, not too sweet but could taste a little less water down. In my poke bowl I got spicy salmon/tuna, mango, cucumber, salmon, and tamago with spicy mayo. To my surprise, the mango was sweet. They were generous with their portions and the seafood was delicious. I could do a little spicier on everything but that's just me.

Superb pint of options. Tons of different sauces. They have tobiko and masago and Japanese pickled cucumber and spicy salmon or tuna, Kano salad. Much more options than beech. Very nice people too. Not bored college kids.

Had dinner here one night last week while visiting Charleston since we were looking for something quick and close. Hubby and I both enjoyed our bowls though neither was actually our correct order. His was supposed to be Spicy Ahi on rice but was made with lettuce. In addition, he was not sure if the ahi was actually the spicy ahi since it just wasn't spicy. I ordered chicken on lettuce and was initially served shrimp. The 2nd bowl had chicken but was made with rice instead of lettuce and we both chose not to ask for them to be remade. Despite the mixup, we both enjoyed our bowls and would go back again.

I think this place has the BEST poke salad/bowl in Charleston for so many reasons: 1. the ingredients are fresh 2. they have a wide selection of vegetables/toppings 3. the seawood tastes fresh and not like the normal fishy seawood taste that you often get 4. the place is clean and doesn't smell like bleach when you walk in (unlike some Poke Bros shops) 5. they slice the avocado for you so that you aren't trying to cut up a half avocado with chopsticks 6. Sesame seeds, fried shallots, ginger/wasabi, and chili spice come complimentary. It's my favorite Poke bowl house in town.

The salmon is fresh and the veggies are SO crisp! The crispy texture really elevates the quality of the bowl. The price is on par with other poke spots, so if you're starving I recommend spending a little more: $15.50 to pick 2 proteins instead of $12.99 for 1. There isn't street parking so be prepared to park a couple blocks away or pay for lot parking diagonally across from the restaurant.

I placed a to-go order of a poke salad (mixed greens) with shrimp and some other veggies and fruits. I was so disappointed to see that the shrimp were not cooked properly. They were grayish-pink and completely translucent. Cooked shrimp should be bright pink and opaque. Due to a risk of food poisoning from eating raw shrimp (and the salad touched by the raw shrimp), I immediately threw away my meal. Shrimp is not a food to be served raw!

I have found my new "go to" healthy option when I'm downtown. Poké Tea House is just fantastic. You can build your own bowl or choose from the many options already put together on the board. They make it very easy to order and to choose your own. You basically just check boxes and therefore be as healthy as you choose. The ingredients are so fresh and healthy. Delicious. Love it. It's clean fresh and the staff are super helpful. Parking is a breeze, right across the street in front of an apartment complex. The location is just barely off of King, around the corner from Bourbon and Bubbles. I cannot wait to go back. A total favorite. If you are watching your intake this place definitely gives you total control. I felt revitalized after I ate and not full of stodge. Don't miss.

Poke tea house is a go to lunch spot. I've tried a lot of poke bowls, and i have to say this is my favorite poke in town. It has a lot of options to build your own poke bowl. It's all fresh and love the sauces. You can also grab some fresh ginger and wasabi to go with it. The bubble tea is good too. The atmosphere isn't anything crazy.. this is definitely a takeout spot. It also does not have any parking so hard to stay for long. Worth it for the food!

It wasn't like the usually Thai tea I get from back home but it was okay. I think that they use condense milk to sweeten instead of sweeting the tea and adding the half and half to the tea after. It wasn't like a creamy orange color that I'm used to but it did do the job.

This poke place was so delicious! The bowl was filling but not heavy, and their options were plenty and fresh. I opted to build my own bowl and got sushi rice, seared tuna (best decision ever), cucumber, avo, crab salad, mango, cilantro, sriracha mayo, and a little ponzu sauce (and the freebie toppings of crispy onions and sesame seeds). I was planning on saving some for later but nope! I ate it all in one sitting. The only downside to this place is that they don't have a location in my hometown. Staff was friendly, too! The passionfruit bubble tea was also so refreshing. Just lightly sweetened, not syrupy like some places. Loved it!

One of the few fresh and tasty sushi spots in downtown Charleston. The food is always fresh and delicious here, portions are small but satisfying. Parking is always a headache, there's none on the street, I think they have only 2 spots assigned to this business in the underground garage. I asked the staff where their salmon was from, unfortunately, they didn't know...in a sushi place, this is a must, information on ingredients is key.

Mmmm poke is my new obsession. I am so crazy about ahi tuna I honestly think I could eat a poke bowl for every meal for the rest of my life. While parking is confusing and non-existent I took my chance to be quick from the old Bi-Lo shopping center which worked even though Poke Tea House has a sign inside asking customers not to park there or you'll get booted. No boot for me, as I was in and out in about 3 minutes! The set-up is Chipotle style where the ingredients are already prepped and making the meal is more of an assembly line. I decided to build my own bowl and grabbed a sheet to check off the items I wanted in my bowl. I included ahi tuna, spicy tuna, cucumber, avocado, sweet onion, mango, and traditional poke sauce on a mixed greens base. Choosing a sauce was the only difficult part for me because I honestly don't know the difference between the sauces. Flavors were all fresh and delicious and I loved every bite. I will definitely return!

I placed an order online, I had a couple of substitutions, and my order was perfect. I got the poke burrito with tuna and a milk tea with Boba. A little pricey for an every day lunch but definitely worth a shot.

The woman behind the counter was just generally unpleasant when she spoke; I felt like I was being barked at. There are hand written signs about shortages and costs of things posted around the space. Look... raise your prices if you need to, give a couple napkins out with the bowls instead of letting customers take from a stack--what I don't want is to read a sign about the prices and shortages of supplies. It's not only tacky, but you're making your problems my problems.

It was a great restaurant and a good walking distance from the Dewberry. I had a poke salad with a milk tea and my wife had a poke bowl and a passion tea. We absolutely loved them! Yum!!! The only thing we found a bit hard were the directions on Apple Maps. Highly suggest coming here!

Poke tea house is an excellent fresh and healthy option for lunch or dinner. You walk in, grab an order sheet and make your own bowl to your specification. My favorite is the Ahí tuna with mango and edemame. The bubble teas are all on point with different available toppings like exploding bubbles or traditional tapioca. Try the passion fruit tea with lychee Jelly's, its fantastic. Tip: poke tea house has a couple of Parking spots reserved in the condo tower which makes it super convenient.

Much to my surprise, my friend found a 2-in-1 poke/boba spot, Poke Tea House, right in Charleston. This wouldn't seem out of place in the Bay Area, but who woulda thunk there'd be this sort of combo in Charleston? So neat. I wasn't in the mood for creating my own lunch bowl, so I opted for the Hawaiian Poke Bowl. The pricing was on par with the portions and with the amount of fish I got. I ordered a hot green tea as well. Way cheaper than Starbucks ($2.50) and it came in a big cup and gosh, it was strong! I loved the cute little succulent plants they had inside as well as the replica white Eames style chairs. There's also a good amount of natural lighting in there so it seems like a good place to study/ready/hang out.

I could eat Poke all day everyday. The poke here was soo good. I got the mixed greens base with Ahi tuna, seaweed salad, pineapple, avocado and cucumbers. There was a good amount of tuna, and the best part is that I didn't have to pay extra for the avocado! I thought the 'classic poke' sauce was a bit boring (soy sauce and sesame oil) so I'd go for a different sauce next time. Also got the match tea with coconut milk, it was perfect. Not too sweet and still got that earthy matcha taste.

So I liked the bubble tea so much, I came back 2 days in a row! Although, to be fair, my second visit was because I wanted to try the Poke Bowl so badly, it literally woke me up in the middle of the night (Ok, maybe that was my cat, but to be fair, his breath did smell like tuna). I've tried 2 different bubble teas, the passionfruit fruit tea with strawberry jellies and the honeydew milk tea (also with strawberry jellies). As you can see, I'm a big fan of the strawberry jellies. They have the consistency of something in between jello and a gummy bear, and I really enjoy the flavor, which is nice and sweet (without being cloying). The passionfruit tea was a bit overly sweet for my taste, but would've been very refreshing to sip on outside on a hot day. The honeydew milk tea is my go-to anywhere I go, and it seems like I'm the only person in the world who likes it (at least whenever I've shared my honeydew tea with people, they are generally not a fan). I loved Poke Tea House's honeydew milk tea; the color was bright green without looking fake/chemically enhanced, and the flavor was subtle but pleasant. I drank it way faster than I should have. The poke, being only my 3rd poke experience, was pretty fantastic. I built my own bowl with tuna, sushi rice, avocado, cucumber, cilantro, tomago (which I actually thought was masago, so I was VERY confused when there was an actual egg in my poke bowl. That's my bad.), spicy tuna (that's right, DOUBLE TUNA), seaweed, and their ponzu sauce. So I guess you could say that I took my favorite sushi roll, took it out of the seaweed wrap and dumped it (artfully) into a bowl. It was delicious. I'm not sure I breathed at all while I was eating it, because I just couldn't put it down. The rice is delightfully seasoned, and I love the complimentary fried onions, which offer a nice crunch. TL;DR: Poke Tea House is awesome and I will definitely be coming back!

Is Poké Tea House the best Poké place I've ever been to in my life? Yes, actually it's so absolutely amazing that I find myself never wanting to leave. As you enter this small establishment in downtown Charleston, greeted by friendly staff members, make your way to the Poké bar to eye all of the tasty ingredients. Fill out the ordering slip which walks you through the options of packing your bowl with deliciousness. My favorite bowl thus far: brown rice, ahi tuna, jalapeño, mango, edamame, sriracha mayo, topped with avocado and spicy salmon. Mmm mmm! Make sure to get the optional fried onions or roasted seaweed as a free topping as well. Finally, you must try a bubble tea (I.e. flavored tea with toppings), they are heavenly. I've tried the blushing peach tea with lychee jelly and jasmine tea with lychee jelly and they're both fantastic. I'm working my way through the list of trying every flavor! Do yourself a favor and get to Poké Tea House as soon as you can... You won't regret it!

Delivery was super fast and reliable! They accommodated my order even though I couldn't add it directly to the 3rd party. So nice! Fish was so fresh! Love that for a fast poke shop. Only complaint was I paid $14 for the bowl and I felt there was barely any fish in there. But it was all great overall!

Why 5 stars? Because the honeydew milk tea with passion fruit juice poppers was a perfect recommendation. --- --- --- Full disclosure: I was sent by some colleagues to go get boba tea and it turned out that I went to the wrong boba place. But I'd already ordered my own drink before I figured this out, so I easily could have come back to my people, shrugged my shoulders, and played the, "I'm a dumby who doesn't know any better" card. But no, that's not the work ethic my parents taught me. So I downed my slush from the other place, walked to Poke Tea House and ordered stuff from here too. While I mainly did it for a colleague who was really looking forward to me bringing her a specific treat, I definitely ordered myself one too. Yes, that is after literally sitting outside of Poke Tea House for a few minutes just so I could finish my boba from Tapio and not be rude by bringing in product from their biggest competitor. Anyway, I am a monster when it comes to what I'm capable of, consumption-wise. Back to the important matter at hand - the recommendation was to order the honeydew milk tea with passion fruit juice poppers. While this isn't something I'd normally order on my own, it sounded interesting enough, so I went with it. And it turns out, Sydney G knows what she's talking about - this was an amazing combination! Now, did my stomach hurt for like an hour and a half after two bobas in a row? Yes. Was it worth it? Yes. Will I do it again? Yes.

Sushi lovers rejoice! This place is amazing and I can't recommend this place enough. I first tried Poke in Chicago at Aloha Poke and I was so surprised and happy when they opened up this place as Charleston's first Poke restaurant! It's in Downtown, so my friends and I walked there after we finished shopping on King Street and Charleston Place. First of all, the prices are fair and the staff there is extremely friendly! We came late at night around 8:45 before they closed at 9. The owner was our cashier and really nice. She took our orders and I guess because they were about to close, she offered to give my group of friends free bubble teas which was really nice of her! The Drinks: I got the Taro bubble tea with the Tapioca balls and it was great! Really smooth and not grainy like poorly made bubble tea would be. The Tapioca balls were also cooked right so they were soft and chewy. The Food: I ordered the salmon, spicy tuna, seaweed, kani salad, and scallion Poke. My friends ordered the salmon, eel, edamame, and seaweed Poke plus the salmon, Kani salad, cucumber, and avocado Poke. Personally, we all ordered the "poke your way" because we wanted to make sure that we got everything that we like our Poke bowl, but they also have pre-set Poke Bowls that you can get if you want something safe and quick. All the fish were really fresh, delicious, and blended well with the protein and vegetables that were added. Overall, I'm really happy that Charleston has a Poke place. I highly recommend this place if you love sushi and want a healthy lunch or dinner at an affordable price. I'll definitely be back!

I dropped in to purchase a milk tea. My first choice was the peach tea but unfortunately, the shop ran out of peaches. I decided to get the original milk tea with the lychee jelly strips. It was good, not bad. It was nothing special, just a milk tea. I would like to visit again and try the poke.

I just moved from NYC and was obsessed with this poke place there. I decided to try a poke bowl from here and it tasted EXACTLY like the one I loved in New York! So fresh and delicious, good portion size, can't wait to get it again!

I had my first poke bowl in California and it was amazing! So naturally, I was excited to hear that it's finally offered in Charleston!! Poke tea house is a cute spot tucked in a new apartment complex building at Meeting & Spring. I went on opening day and the staff welcomed us as soon as we walked in. They gave us menus that included instructions on how to order ''poke your way.'' You can order their signatures poke bowls too, but we opted to build our own. I ordered a mix of salmon & ahi tuna with edamame, tamago, mango, avocado, and masago on sushi rice, with classic poke sauce. And a taro milk tea. I was pretty happy with how my poke bowl turned out, it was light, healthy, and delicious! So glad poke popped up in Charleston. I'll definitely be back.

I saw a poke place opened near my hotel, so wanted to check it out. In a city with good, but heavy southern food, a girl needs light option sometimes. A bit tight on time, I ordered ahead on Grubhub. The pokw burrito option sounded good and I choose ahi tuna, sushi rice, seweed salad, cucumber, and cilantro and ponzyu sauce. I arrived under 10 minutes later and it was all ready for me. Upon getting it, I noticed how small it was. It comes cut in half and you can tell the piece of nori wasn't sizable for a burrito. The fish was okay, but there wasn't much of it. The sauce is in a container (more for dipping), not mixed in. Since the burrito doesn't have nori on the bottom, the sauce just drips through everywhere. It was more a "fork, please" midway through the first half of burrito. I wonder if you're better off with a bowl for the same price ($12). I didn't see wasabi or ginger or was offered any, so that took away from a sushirrito.

Being as it was too early to have dinner, we stopped in one early evening around 4 to share pre-dinner snack. Besides, this raw fish salad is typically served as an appetizer in Hawaiian cuisine. Poké Tea House is located in between Meeting and King Streets and operates in one of the commercial spaces underneath the Elan Midtown Luxury Apartments complex. You'll walk into a really minimally-designed and cute poké spot. This is the perfect lunch spot and works great for someone who needs to be in and out in less than an hour. They have some of their signature bowls on the large chalkboard above the order counter, but you can opt to create your owl bowl, burrito, or salad. If you decide you want to be in control and build your own, grab a card and go crazy! Snag a writing utensil, write your name at the top of the card, select all the protein, mix ins, flavor, toppings, and two free toppings you want, take your order up to the cashier, listen for your name to be called, and enjoy! The card will have the following options: BASE (CHOOSE 1) Poké Bowl | Poké Burrito | Poké Salad PROTEIN (CHOOSE 1) Ahi Tuna | Scallop | Chicken | Salmon | Seared Tuna | Shrimp | Tofu | Escolar | Grilled Eel (Unagi) *Escolar is usually a white tuna/fish (i.e albacore) MIX IN (CHOOSE 3) Cucumber | Cilantro | Asparagus | Scallion | Edamame | Shiso Leaf | Tamago | Jalapeño | Pineapple | Mango | Ogo Seaweed | Sweet Onion *Tamago is a Japanese omelette usually tied together with a nori strip. *Ogo Seaweed is a reddish, brown, and lacy seaweed. FLAVOR (CHOOSE 1) Classic Poké | Ponzu Fresh | Wasabi Mayo | Yuzu Dressing | Oba Dressing | Wasabi Yuzu | Sweet Chili | Sriracha Mayo | Creamy Sauce *Ponzu is a tart-tangy and watery consistency soy sauce similar to the flavor profile of a vinaigrette. *Oba is similar to basil and usually used in tempura; also called shiso. *Yuzu is a citron peel. TOPPING (CHOOSE 3) Avocado | Tobiko | Squid Salad | Spicy Salmon | Spicy Tuna | Masago | Seaweed Salad | Crab Salad | Corn | Ikura | Pickled Cucumber *Tobiko is roe from flying fish with a crunchy texture. *Masago is roe from capelin, Atlantic, or Arctic fish and has a less crunchy texture then tobiko. *Ikura is red caviar from salmon roe. FREE TOPPINGS (OPTIONAL) Sesame Seed | Fried Onion For our poké bowl we chose the following: PROTEIN (1) - Grilled Eel MIX IN (3) - Edamame, Ogo Seaweed, Sweet Onion FLAVOR (1) - Classic Poké TOPPING (3) - Spicy Tuna; Crab Salad, Seaweed Salad FREE TOPPINGS (2) - Sesame Seed and Fried Onions As expected, our poké was beautifully arranged/presented and tasty. Our selections made for a very visually vibrant dish, and our unagi (well-seasoned and buttery) and fish were fresh. We also ordered a coconut milk tea with traditional bubble/boba to share, and the drink was pretty tasty but was a bit watered down. My husband was not a fan of the drink and prefers this exact drink from another boba tea spot in the area. Although portions are definitely on the smaller side, the delicious variants will definitely leave you wanting more. The best thing about eating poké is that I never walk away feeling guilty for what I am putting in my body. I can make a poké any way I crave it simply by changing a mix in, flavor, or topping here and there, and I know it's one of the the freshest, tastiest, and healthiest food trend around!

Poke is a usually a weekly thing for my coworker and I to celebrate making it through (or usually halfway through) a week. The ingredients are ALWAYS fresh and consistent. They arrange the bowls beautifully and have a decent variety of topping options. I have tried several if not all the poke places in town, and this is my spot without fail. They will do half and half bases although it isn't easy to order as such. I've also received the incorrect order this way many times unfortunately (zucchini noodles are not as delicious as mixed greens.) They will work to correct or refund incorrect orders which is much appreciated. Looking forward to my next mid-week celebration!

Poké is something that I've never had before, but I've definitely have wanted to try it. Luckily, with the GF accompanying me and looking for places to go she spotted this place out! This place sort of reminded me of Whichwich as far as the way you order food using a card to pick your options. The location is a little bit hidden, but it's facing towards the street and not within a building if you were wondering where it's at. Anyways, let's get to what I got. I ordered the Tuna and Salmon and topped with seaweed, scallions, avocados, and spicy salmon. Yeah. It was pretty delicious. It's served on top of rice and soy sauce. I think if there was anything that was critical to say about my dish it would be that there was a little bit too much soy sauce for the rice. I think just a sprinkle or just a little bit it would've been better. I'm not a big fan on soy sauce on rice or in rice, but in this mixture personally I would have enjoyed it a lot more. Next time though, I'll be sure to not drench my rice in soy sauce. I think if I'm ever in Charleston, this will definitely be a place I will visit again. Definitely recommend this spot for a lunch or if you just have a craving for poké.

Slightly off of King Street a hidden gem for great poke! Similar to sushi cards, you fill in your choice of base, protein, add ons and dressing. The card suggests how much of each selection you can have for the basic price, but you're able to add as much as you want to your bowl. Everything was very fresh and tasty. Best part it's healthy! I opted for zucchini noodles instead of rice. They were spiraled very thin and a perfect base for my bowl. The dinning area is comfortable and spacious. I look forward to having another Poke Bowl!
