This place has truly raised the bar for poke in our area, and I can’t say enough good things about this place. Every time I walk in, I’m greeted with warmth and genuine kindness from the team. Lydia, is such an amazing person her love and care for her customers is evident in every interaction. It’s rare to find someone who treats her guests not just as customers, but as part of a larger family. That kind of heart translates directly into the food, which is nothing short of phenomenal.
The poke bowls here are customizable with just about anything you could imagine wanting. The selection is wide, the toppings are abundant, and the presentation is immaculate. Lydia’s attention to detail is truly impressive every bowl feels like it has been crafted with care, not just thrown together. That extra thought and precision really makes a difference.
The freshness of the ingredients is unmatched. Everything tastes vibrant, clean, and balanced, and I can honestly say it’s the best poke I’ve ever had, anywhere. The convenience of quick and easy access only makes it better, especially since the food never sacrifices quality for speed.

Read moreI can’t believe it’s taken me forever to try this Poke spot in Benicia. I’ve been getting my nails done next door for years, located in the same plaza as Nations, it can get pretty busy but there’s always parking. Small store front but very welcoming and cozy. The workers are super inviting, friendly, and helpful. You have plenty of options to choose for. I opted for the signature house bowl which comes with tuna, salmon, seaweed salad, crab salad, cucumber, green onion, house sauce. I chose half brown rice and vegetables/greens for my base. The worker also helped elevate my bowl with some ponzu sauce, sesame seeds, and garlic flakes. I devoured my bowl so quickly! There isn’t any seating indoors, but there’s a fro yo spot a couple of doors down with outdoor seating , maybe get something for dessert if you want to eat it outside quickly or there’s a park across the street. If you’re craving for Poke while in Benicia, this...
Read moreSuch a great poke spot. The prices are higher than some others I've tried in the Bay Area, but the quality is reflected in that. It's totally worth it. Everything is fresh and perfectly seasoned. In particular, it's the best spicy tuna I've ever had (I love that it's whole pieces and not ground), the best crab (perfect amount of mayo, not too much), and the best pickled ginger (so fresh and crisp). I also love that they have more unique offerings. They make their own lime poke blend that is incredible, and their toppings include all the traditional ones in addition to some interesting ones like finely-diced pickled radish and fresh mixed seaweed (separate from the traditional seaweed salad, which they also have). Lastly, the establishment is clean and beautiful, and the staff are very friendly. And I love that it's run by two sisters (one is the chef and one runs...
