Firstly, the price of the regular sized poke bowl at $21 is so steep, especially when compared to the popular Fishbowl franchise in Sydney which charges $5 less for a larger bowl and also filled to the brim. The high price point at Tuna Tail is not justified given the quality and quantity of the ingredients and our overall experience.
Secondly, it's disappointing that the protein in the poke bowl was minimal, especially given the high cost. The bowl was absolutely packed with kale - it felt unbalanced with a lack of protein and other flavourful ingredients - I genuinely felt like I paid $21 for a bowl of chopped kale.
Lastly, the lack of flavor in the bowls were concerning and could be a result of the minimal protein and overabundance of the wrong ingredients. A poke bowl should be a satisfying and flavorful meal, and it's unfortunate that the experience with Tuna Tail left us feeling hungry and dissatisfied.

Read more🌊 Found it on socials and instantly saved it – the bowls looked too good to pass up, and it totally lived up to the hype!
✨ Fresh, coastal vibes with a clean, laid-back setup. Super cute spot that fits right into Huskisson’s beachy feel.
⭐️ Staff were warm and welcoming, and really helpful when I built my own bowl – quick service and attention to detail was 10/10.
🍹 Didn’t grab a drink this time but eyeing off their kombucha and cold-pressed options for next visit.
🥗 I made my own salmon sashimi bowl and it was so fresh. The salmon was silky and generous, the toppings were colourful and crunchy, and the sesame dressing tied it all together perfectly. Every bite was a dream.
⏭️ Can’t wait to go back and try one of their signature tuna bowls next – they looked amazing!
🙏🏼 Thanks Tuna Tail Bowls – fresh, feel-good food I’ll be dreaming about until I’m back...
