Freshe Poke — Restaurant in Columbia

I’m not one to complain much at all and this is the first time I’ve even wrote a bad review for a place. But I just think it is ridiculous this restaurant charges almost double for a veggie bowl compared to the veggie bowls I get at Poke Bros. I paid $15 for a veggie bowl at Freshe Poke, when I can literally get the same exact order at Poke Bros for only $9 and some change. Tofu is extremely cheap, so there is no need to over charge. Especially for us non-meat eaters that are getting charged for things we aren’t even getting. Poke Bros doesn’t even charge extra for their avocado on their veggie bowls either. Not to mention the guy that took my order at Freshe Poke was extremely stingy on the “servings” and would try to charge me extra for every scoop. I only came here this one time out of convenience, and instantly regretted it afterwards. I just don’t understand the extreme over charge and do not recommend this place at all. Poke Bros gives you way more bang for your buck for the same quality, and...

Quality proteins available (fresh: salmon, ahi or spicy tuna, shrimp, sous vide chicken, organic tofu). Options for sushi or brown rice and spring mix or romaine lettuce for bowls or choose a burrito that's hand rolled with sushi rice and roasted seaweed wraps. A plethora of mix-ins and toppings, including fun stuff like Cheetos dust or watermelon radish. There's also an equally large number of sauces to choose from. You also have the option for some simple sides like miso soup or even a seaweed salad. Specialty fruit flavored tea is also available along with fountain drinks or bottled Fiji and Pellegrino. Modern, clean and bright environment with friendly staff. This is a super convenient location in the busy downtown area of Columbia with ample...

My girlfriend and I usually go to poke bros, but wanted to try this place, and man, was it worth it The second you walk in youre greeted with a wonderful aroma and a big smile. The inside dining area is very quite, and clean. They have plenty of options, and it's all very fresh. It was hard for us to choose what to get, so their employee Charlotte was very helpful, and had alot of insight on different options. When I asked "do you have any sauce recommendations?" She responded with questions to see what I would like most, instead of just choosing one. With every aspect of this place being alot better then poke bros, it was also cheaper! Very amazing place, and I'm looking forward to coming back here...
