Wanderfish Poke

It's very cute and cozy inside. I probably caught the staff at a bad time or they are probably adjusting to things. Quality of the fish didn't taste as fresh as other poke spots in SEA. Enjoyed the amount of item we could add to a bowl for $15 (large bowl).

(My rating is of their delivery options, not in-house) The good: - Quality of fish is above average - Portions are good and pricing is not bad ($10 for small vs $13 for large) - Decent amount of fish relative to the rest of the bowl The bad: - Wasabi is not offered (really?!??) - Sauce is non-existent, bowl tasted bland and had to add soy sauce and togarashi from our kitchen. We did select "light" sauce but we got "no" sauce. - Rice is a little dry and not super plump - The menu options are fixed and you cannot customize your bowl beyond what type of fish you want Overall it's not bad. Based on the general quality I'd definitely go to the actual store, but the delivery option needs a little love.

Amazing poke! Small is ~$10 and large is ~$12. You can make your own bowl or choose a preset option. Lots of gluten free options available!

First time ever having Poke and I have to say that I'm extremely happy that I tried it at Wanderfish! It was an overall satisfying experience from the staff to the Poke! Will definitely be going back!

The taste and quality of ingredients is fantastic. True, it's a bit pricey, but you never trust cheap raw fish. I had the Blaze Bowl (small) and it was great balance of taste and texture, plus it was a perfect size for lunch. There are many add on options as well, and seemed great quality

Amazing food and great atmosphere. Custom bowl of ahi tuna was both refreshing and satisfying. Service was great. The process of making the bowls and burritos is still improving. I'm sure it will be more efficient within a month or two

Wanderfish poke had perfect balance of flavors- not too sweet, not too salty. Fish and seaweed was so fresh! The manager was super nice and explained my question about the sauce very well!

Good service, friendly staff, and fresh food. The price is typical Seattle expensive but the amount of Poke is great and matches the serving size (very rare in the city). They have pre-set options or you can make your own.

Easily the best poke spot in Seattle greater area without a doubt. Parking is no where to be found so make sure you order online and pick it up. Seating is also limited. Fish is extremely fish and they do not skimp out on it. The toppings were hearty and perfect.

Tried this out for lunch on a Sunday and there wasn't a line, it's on broadway in cap hill and there's a few tables inside but seems like mostly a to go spot. You basically go down the line and pick what options you want for each spot. Overall it was nice and quick and easy, pretty good for the price and speed and convenience but not my fav poke spot even in cap hill for that price point.

Deliver order. Very fresh fish and toppings. Good portion size. White rice was tasty and well flavored, while the brown rice was a bit overcooked and dry.

Super tasty poke bowl!! Wow this was such a large beautiful poke bowl. Unlimited toppings and super yummy salmon. I ordered online which was very easy and the bowl was prepared quickly. Pickup was very easy and I liked all the toppings that I got. I tried ginger, seaweed salad, seaweed, citrus mango, tofu (surprised this was part of the unlimited toppings!), crispy onions, edamame, and crab salad. They had the good crab salad with lots of mayo.

This place is soooo good. I may or may not have went here 4 days in a row after I first tried it... I went during my lunch break so I didn't eat inside and I came in right before closing each time. The space is so clean and the service is so quick and friendly. They give you generous portions of each of your selections and it's so filling. There are so many options on how to build your bowl! Everything is fresh and tastes so good. I'm obsessed and I will keep coming back!

RIP - had the most painful food poisoning in my life after eating salmon and hamachi here. Had nothing else that day and my partner did not get sick from his tuna. Hopefully just a one-off experience. I still love FOB poke but unfortunately I don't think I'll ever come back to this location.

Omg, if you a fan of poke bowl, you should try this place once It's affordable and the ingredients are fresh, this probaly one of my fav places in seattle

A quick and convenient place in Cap Hill to meet your Poke needs. This place has a large assortment of toppings and fish options that you will be able to craft your ideal Poke bowl. As for the fish quality, I think this is a notch down from Seattle Fish Guys--it didn't have the same buttery melt in your mouth type wow factor, but still was a decent lunch option nonetheless.

Worst costumer service ever!!! They look at you with an attitude and are rude I don't recommend eating here if you wanna be treated right

The restaurant itself is surprisingly warm and the bowls are handed to you above room temperature which makes me very worried about food safety with respect to raw fish. The service is IMPRESSIVELY bad- they seem to be trying to look as unenthused as possible, which also impacts the food quality as they're clearly not paying attention when portioning out sauces or toppings. I have been many times to this location, it seems to be on the decline and increasingly smells fishy and unclean. My last bowl had barely any sauce, and the fish itself smelled fishy and had a lot of obvious sinew; ultimately I did not feel comfortable eating it.

With just a weekend to spend in Seattle, I knew I'd have few chances to see what kind of poke the city has to offer. After doing some research on my own and asking the locals in Capitol Hill, I heard this place was the real deal for "mainland style" poke. And I can get behind that statement! I got a regular sized bowl with salmon and tuna as my protein, mixed greens and FOB rice as my base, and a handful of toppings and mix-ins. Toppings are unlimited, so I didn't hesitate to try anything that looked tasty. My favorite topping was the tamagoyaki, which is a Japanese-style rolled omelette with a bit of sweetness to it. The fish itself was soft and fresh, while the base-to-protein ratio was great. I got to enjoy the fish until the very end of my bowl. Service was nice and snappy. If you're interested in building a bowl, they'll ask you some guiding questions as they build it for you. The interior was clean, had a good deal of available seating, and features a cute accent wall. Would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a good bowl of poke :)

FOB Poke Bar is a fast-casual customizable poke bowl spot serving high quality fish at an affordable price point. We made poke bowls with fragrant jasmine rice, salmon, ahi tuna, green onion, spicy mayo and soy sauce, seaweed salad, spicy crab salad, avocado, and wonton crisps. We love this no-frills establishment

I thought I didn't like Poké, until I ate here. I love this place so much! My generous foodie friend drove me here because she was craving it. We parked on the street, paid for 30 min parking, and headed inside. On a Saturday at 3pm, there was no line. The workers were so patient with me as I read through the comprehensive list of ingredients. To my surprise, there's no hidden fees when creating your customized bowl. I know of other Poké places that only let you choose 2-3 add ons, but FOB Poké encourages you to go crazy with it. The textures and flavors of this bowl has convinced me that I'll never set foot in a chipotle again. The FOB rice was flavorful and maintained a great texture while still chilled. I did half salmon, which was buttery and rich, and half shrimp which I was very pleased with the simple steamed taste and size. The real winners of the bowl was the zesty mango dressing and mango topping. Not sure if that's something I could ever recreate in my lifetime. I added cucumber mix in, grilled tofu, roasted corn, all three crunchy toppings, spicy crab salad, and tomatoes. The freshness of this bowl had me feeling like a springtime breeze. Can't wait to come back.

I came here with friends and as far as poke places go, it tasted pretty fresh and the unlimited toppings were great! It's still a little pricey and they missed some of the toppings I wanted because I would name one waiting for them to add it but they just waited for me to say the rest of them before adding.

I really hate to write this review since it really is the best poke place in town. However, over the last few weeks I've gone in and the A/C is broken. I don't know how the employees can stand it. I can barely manage to order my food and run out. The last thing I want is sweltering heat around my poke!

do you like stale rice and not-so-fresh fish? ....then this is the place for you brother. they have a large sauce selection too, so just go ahead and lather up the low quality ingredients with sauce. that'll help. service was friendly and swift. clean atmosphere as well as reasonable prices. fob stands for "fresh out the box (fish)" .... praying i don't get sick later.

Normally Indonesian people are nice, but these people are rude af and nonchalant, possibly internalized racist. They have no sense of customer service and robotic af

This is hands down my all-time favorite Poke place! Every time I eat here, I come out really full; their bowls could last me two meals. I love their unlimited side toppings and their protein is so fresh and delicious. I always get their Fob Poke rice and spicy tuna. There are also cooked protein options. A must-try place!

I randomly came across this place when I craved poke for a Friday night dinner. It was a little later than dinner time but I am so incredibly impressed with this place. LOCATION & PARKING // It's on Broadway so there isn't a parking lot or anything. You will have to park on the street but I was able to find parking pretty easily right in front on a Friday night. This could just be because of COVID though. ORDERING PROCESS // I ordered online but BE AWARE that if you click on the link through Yelp and the payment does not go through, you will have to completely redo your order. This isn't usually a big deal but with how many options you have in your order, it may take awhile. Just keep that in mind. Overall, it was super easy and the food was ready in 20 minutes. FOOD // I looooved this bowl! The reviews are all true. There are so many options to customize your bowl which I love. The fish was super fresh and the toppings were just perfect. The only thing I would say is that their only SPICY TUNA option is mashed. It was flavorful and I didn't even have to add any extra furikake on my rice. The portion size was perfect too. My last poke meal was from Seattle Fish Guys, which we all know is great, but this absolutely hit the spot and it does not come second place at all. OVERALL // 5 stars I really enjoyed this meal! I wish more people knew about this place.

The food here is wonderful, lots of variety and love the flavors. The reason for the 2 stars is the customer service, every time I visit here (lately it's been weekly) the staff basically scowls when they see you walk in, knowing that they have to help you. They rush you through the line and try to get you out of the place as quickly as possible. It would be nice to see a smile. I tip everywhere I go, whether that be coffee or takeout, but I haven't tipped here lately because the staff frankly doesn't deserve it with how off putting they are.

I've come to accept that mainland poke is essentially deconstructed sushi ingredients plus some fish, and not really deeply marinated fish as from Hawaii (12 hours +). I still think its good. That being said...FOB is the king of this "mainland poke". No doubt. I like sushi, I like sushi ingredients. A lot of other places are SUPER stingy with their bowl size. Not FOB. If you want a lot of different toppings, or even all of them, they give it to you. The lid will be jam packed on there and barely closes. The other thing I really appreciate about FOB is the freshness. I can taste how fresh and clean every single thing is. I believe they must do high volume and their prepped foods are constantly being prepped and rotated so it never has time to get older. I certainly can see why they would do high volume. Keep it up. Good job.

The foods here is so goods and fresh. the service was really nice and professional. .. Will come back with some friends soon .

This is my first time trying this FOB Poke Bar location. It's a lot of food, and a lot of free topping options. It fed me for both lunch and dinner. Definitely coming back when I crave poke.

Back in Seattle a year removed from our last stay. Out of the couple dozen places we ate at during our last trip, FOB Poke Bar was my hands down favorite. I've been craving it ever since I left. The wait ended after we did Uber Eats tonight. I got a regular size bowl this time but with pretty much the exact same stuff as last time (ahi, spicy tuna mash, and a ton of add-ons) except I added the corn and takuwan this time. My wife also got her first bowl consisting of hamachi and shrimp, with about half as many add-ons as me :) Still hands down the best poke bowl I've ever eaten. I use to think the poke bowls in Hawaii were the best but not any more. You simply can't beat the quality of the fish and the variety of the add-ons at FOB. And the fact that they don't charge you for, or limit the amount of add-ons, is just astonishing. I love this place.

Delicious bowls and amazing value for a quick stop in Capitol Hill! The menu was easy to follow, everything was clearly labeled, and the staff was very friendly. The crowd was pretty thin when we stopped by around 7:30pm tonight, and we got a decent serving of everything we picked for our bowls. We were able to select multiple ingredients in each category unless specified, and the food all looked fresh! I will definitely be returning!

Wanted to give this place a try for a long time. However, I am not very impressed with their Poke bowl. The combo I ordered was: * Rice: Half & Half (FOB Rice + Brown Rice) * Mix: Everything * Sauce: FOB Poke Sauce + Spicy Mayo * Protein: Grilled Chicken + Spam in protein * Topping: cherry tomatoes, ginger, seaweed salad, roasted corn, fried garlic and crispy onions. The reason I have given it 3 stars is that I felt the Poke was a bit dry. I could barely taste the sauces. I couldn't even taste the spicy mayo or understand what FOB poke sauce was. The protein was also okayish in taste. I hope they add the sauces generously in the future. :)

I am a poke addict and the poke here is nothing short of fire. Get it Generous portions, amazing toppings, and super fresh fish at a reasonable price. What more can you ask for. I got the medium bowl with 2 scoops and it was hugeee especially with the crab salad and veggies I added on. Avocado here is a very reasonable 50 cents extra (thank u). Their pickles (watermelon radish??) hit. Am definitely a fan and would rec as a healthy enough weekday meal!

My family is from Hawaii and so I grew up with poké years before it became popular on the west coast. With that said, FOB Poké is by far the BEST poké you can get in Seattle! Like most poké places, it's BYOB (build your own bowl) so you can customize it to your liking. What differentiates FOB from other poké places? 1) They offer FOB RICE which is jasmine rice infused with green tea and coconut. It's my favorite base to get, but they also offer white rice, brown rice, kale, arugula, spring mix, spinach, and tortilla chips. You can also opt for half and half. 2) They offer at least ten different protein choices including hamachi tuna, scallop, seared ahi, and unagi (+$2). My favorites are the ahi and salmon though. 3) They have a variety of sauces such as zesty mango and creamy cilantro. 4) You can get UNLIMITED TOPPINGS for no extra charge (with the exception of avocado (+$1)). Guess who got double of everything!!!!!???? - - - not me, but hey, no judgement if you do! :) Unique toppings include tofu, jicama and watermelon radish. My favorite toppings are the tamagoyaki (sweet egg) and mango so I always get double of those. 5) FOB only uses sustainably caught and sushi quality fish as well as handcrafted sauces (at least according to the sign behind the counter). 6) Service is superb. The server today asked if I wanted anything else after every step and was super friendly. I saw another guy order four orders of poké and she was very patient and offered her personal recommendations to him too. There's usually only one server working behind the counter at a time, but they're able to keep up with the demand with no problem. 7) There are cute succulents on the wall :) Actually the whole place is super modern, aesthetic and clean. Overall: 5/5 food, 5/5 service, 5/5 ambiance.

A tasty poké spot right in the heart of Cap Hill. It's fairly unassuming from the outside but is really tasty and has vegetarian options (tofu). The portion sizes are really big and the ingredients tasted fresh -- they don't charge ridiculous prices for toppings like onion and garlic and the sauces were SO good. The service is quick, and I've never had to wait more than ~5 min. The ordering process is also super self-explanatory and easy. I will definitely be coming back!

How do you feel when you get an egg shell in your omelette? For me, breakfast is OVER!!! It's the same when you get a BONE in your poke! I spent almost $20 for a poke bowl (with their tiny, melon-ball-sized-scoopers of poke), only to get it home, mix it up and to take a bite... and find a BONE!!! Lunch was over and my money was wasted. How disappointing!

We have been fans of FOB for a few years. The last time we ate there, I immediately got really sick to my stomach, cramps, etc...I had not recently eaten other food so it was definitely a reaction to something bad in the food there. My system was upset for a couple days. I tried to give discreet feedback to the restaurant thru their contact page, but the link was broken for many days running, not a temporary thing. Oh well. Important that people know that their food freshness/safety standards may be inadequate. Too bad, we enjoyed eating there. But with no way to reach them to discuss the issue, I won't be going back

I come here a lot and have had zero problems until today. I order pretty much the same thing every time. Today there was a mistake at the very end because they heard me say tobiko when I said wasabi. I wouldn't have said tobiko because I don't care for it. The amount of ATTITUDE I got when I asked for it to be fixed/remade was not cool and then they just threw it all in a bowl without mixing the beginning or anything. I mean, it takes you 60 seconds to make these bowls so not much of an inconvenience. It really bummed me out. I even tipped well but not sure why. I'll be back but this was crappy service and it wasn't necessary to be rude to me.

Classic poke bowl is the best choice. Rich and delicious. Ordered many times. Salmon Seared Ahi Tuna Zesty Mango Salad Seaweed Salad Crabmeat Wonton Strips

I've never been a big poke fan, but this place was REALLY GOOD! The fish and toppings were really fresh. They give you two scoops of protein and you can choose 2 different kinds if you'd like. I had the ahi tuna with rice base and spicy mayo sauce. I added seaweed, mango, cucumber, avocado, and some dried garlic. It was soo good I think I pretty much ignored the people I was with until I was done eating lol. Place is nice and clean and service was great. Can't complain!

Fantastic spot to grab Poke in Seattle! The restaurant felt very clean walking in. All the fish looked impressively fresh and serving area was clean. Lots of options to choose from and the serving size was generous! I did a regular bowl and was stuffed. Ingredients were fresh and delicious. I had worried about having a hard time finding parking at this location but I pulled right up and grabbed a street spot no problem. I eat LOTS of poke so if I say it's good I think you can trust me

I needed to find somewhere to eat for dinner before a night out and this place was close by. I ordered the regular with salmon and seared ahi tuna. I wasn't a huge fan of the seared ahi tuna but I liked the salmon and next time I'd probably just order the regular tuna or get salmon for both scoops. Not only was the fish good they also have cooked options like grilled chicken and beef tataki for no extra charge. I do think that the amount of fish they gave was slightly less than other places I've been to though. The prices are: -Regular (2 scoops): $9.99 -Large (3 scoops): $12.99 -Salad (no protein): $7.99 -Extra scoop of fish: $2.00 The portions of the bowl were actually really big. Usually I'm able to finish poke bowls without any problems but there was a point while eating this when I was thinking, "Wow there's still more?" and "I'm not done yet?" I drunkenly stumbled in here and even with my drunchies I had trouble finishing my bowl so I am super glad I came here. If they opened up a store on the Eastside I would definitely be a frequent customer.

my new fav POKÉ PLACE in town! They have a special in house base- fob rice (coconut & green tea infused jasmine rice), which is so good! Highly recommend!!!

Wait, why is this place getting such good reviews?!?! I've tried this place 3-5 times. I wasn't a huge fan before trying actual poke in Hawaii (which, I finally was able to in Dec 2021!!), and now after coming back from Hawaii, I find it even worse. I have two major qualms with the poke here: 1) THE RICE. omg the rice is atrocious. All the times I've gotten poke here, the rice has been soggy, not soft, not sushi level - just SOAKED and not pleasant to eat at all. I realized they put their sauces on the bottom, which translates to all juices soaking to the bottom and giving me soggy ass rice. So by the time I get to the rice, it's wet and really unappetizing. If you're going to drench my rice in liquid, please at least make it sushi rice to absorb more? 2) THE FISH. Okay so the main star of poke should and always be the FISH.. NOT the toppings. The fish from here is never seasoned. It's literally just straight up raw fish of whatever protein you pick. And for some reason, it never tastes sashimi grade. It just tastes like chunks of raw nothing. A poke bowl should be able to hold its own without being drenched in sauce, IMO. The only positive thing I've seen here is the myriad of toppings. They have more toppings than other neighboring pokes (like tamagoyaki! mm), but with the fish and rice already failing, it's very hard to see past that. Oh ya, parking sucks - but that's probably a constant among a lot of places in Cap Hill. And, they left out crabmeat in my last order which made the whole experience even worse on top of bad fish and bad rice.

SOME OF THE GREATEST PEOPLE IN SEATTLE WORK HERE!!!!! They remember you and celebrate with you. I came in after not going for a couple months due to a health issue and they remembered me and told me they missed me and were glad to see me! EVERYTHING is SUPER fresh and yummy! One of my favorite places!

Pretty sure this poké bowl is gonna last me another meal which I'm not complaining about! Besides the unbelievable amount of food you're able to fit into one of their bowls, at roughly $15 per bowl this place is pretty affordable as well. Fish tastes fresh. I ordered a salmon/shrimp poké bowl with FOB rice, mango sauce, cucumber, green onion, sweet onion, seaweed, tomato, edamame, sweet corn, pickled daikon, egg, mango, seaweed salad, tofu, spicy crabmeat, crispy onion, wonton strips and roasted sesame. Yes that's a lot but like I said--it's an unbelievable amount of food in one bowl! I found my meal slightly on the salty side with a few exceptions (the egg being slightly bland, the tart mango flavor not really coming out) but it's unclear to me whether it's because of my inability to pick the right ingredients or because the food itself is on the saltier side...sorry, ya girl is not much of a poké expert. Probably a tossup between this place and Pokeworks--my general impression is that this place is great for the unlimited toppings but it's hard to judge which place I prefer after only coming here once. Will update this review whenever I learn more :)

Ordered this as takeout. It was great quality. Portion size waS great, fish was fresh, toppings were plentiful. The base price was a little high, but you can add in so many toppings for no additional cost. I'd eat here again without a second thought. My one complaint is that the spicy mashed tuna had no kick at all, but otherwise I've got nothing!

Love the poke here! The tuna tastes fresh, and the vegetables are cut proportionally and bite size. They provide so many options for additional toppings which makes the regular size so filling. With the regular bowl you get two scoops of a seafood and the total came to be $15 and some change. I normally order via DoorDash but today I went in person and ate inside the store. I felt like I was at a cattle ranch and I was the cow! There were a line of people ahead of me when the lady yelled over them to ask what my base was. I felt a sense of urgency to get through everyone in line and rushed to get my order. Efficiency was the goal but I just felt rushed and brushed aside. The food for this place warrants a five but the customer service knocked it down to a four. Limited seating inside but many people got there meal to-go.

Sheesh I don't eat poke because I don't eat raw seafood but this place as cooked food such as shrimp chicken and beef. They also have lots of toppings aka big portion sizes! Everything was good, no complaints! I'd definitely come back.

Their prices recently went up, but still one of my favorite poke places in Capitol Hill. I always leave feeling full and satisfied. The sauces are always really good, my favorites are the FOB poke sauce and the spicy mayo. I also am in love with their FOB poke rice. The fish are pretty fresh. I love the unique toppings they have, such as tamago, jicama, and tofu. Pro tip: you can mix the sauces! So don't feel like you have to stick with one.

Always good and fresh. Highly recommend. I have only had it through door dash. They are one of few that still allow you to add special instructions. They care about getting it right. The fish always tastes fresh.

Yay for a second location!! This is our favorite, top of the list Poke place, and usually all around choice for a happy family. We were hooked at the Blanchard location but much prefer the slightly closer, easier to find parking, locale off of Broadway. It is dangerously close to Molly Moon and Salt & Straw. They outshine ANY poke place with super fresh fish and veggies, awesome sauces, and they have excellent non fish choices of beef (which I have yet to find anywhere else) and chicken. The coconut green tea FOB rice is subtle and perfect, and their choices of sauces are wide enough to keep my son (non spicy creamy cilantro) and my honey happy (no fish please, all meat and ginger). If you love to eat, you should eat here. I imagine myself saying as much every time someone walks by and eyes the window menu. One day I'll convince them to add on to the Eastside.

This is the best poke you can get on the hill, and arguably in the city. Their portion sizes are generous, the topping bar is never ending, and the price is right. One thing that's important to me is consistency, I know exactly what I'm going to get when I'm here, and I get the same outstanding product every time. When I take friends here, FOB quickly then becomes their go-to poke spot, and I promise you it will soon become your's as well.

Well, it's time to find a new poke place. The attention put into building bowls and the friendliness towards customers has really really REALLY declined in the last few months. The employees rush through the ordering process, often speaking over customers because they are already focused on the next step before finishing the previous step (consequently messing up the order). They are so focused on being done with your bowl that they don't hear you/pay attention enough to listen to the order and put the bowl together as requested. 9/10 times I order from here, whether it's in person or online for pick-up, I open my bowl to find entire ingredients are left out, including toppings that require additional pay. I understand if this happens every so often, but it's been almost each time I've gone here. I've been here 10+ times, with the same exact order, and every time I've gotten a different combination of missing items, or dry chewy rice with missing sauces, or goopy fish, or stale wontons. I really wanted to give this place a chance because it's really close to me, plus you really do get a decent amount of food for the money. However, the lack of reliability is has ultimately left me impatient and unsatisfied with the food. It's disappointing and frustrating to pay $18 + tip and to not receive the dish that I requested to be built. They really used to be a 5 star place, and while the pandemic has presented it's own challenges, the complete lack of care and customer service is inexcusable. If you plan on ordering food from FOB, I STRONGLY encourage you to at least do it in person so you can make sure all your requested ingredients make it into the bowl, even if the employees are grumpy to deal with.

Really good Poke. Huge portions and unique toppings like crab salad. Quick service as well.
