AA POKE — Restaurant in Fort Wayne

Food was good, very small portions, but the service was terrible and should not be acceptable. True story: our family of 4 went into AA Poke for the first time tonight, stood at the menu for over 9 minutes trying to figure out what to order, and how it worked, etc. The two men behind the counter just stood there and looked at us, no greeting, no question, no invitation for service. My family ordered, and were treated as though they were bothering the men behind the counter. We ate our sushi burritos, and went back up to order a bubble tea to go. Again, treated like trash. No eye contact, no address, no words, no nothing. I asked the man behind the counter if he treated all of his customers this way, and did he see the need to speak to us like humans. I asked him if he did not care that we did not know what to do. He replied with "you can read, thats what the menu is for"....i asked him again, so you do not speak to your customers, he replied with "i don't have to, this is take out"....I told him that it was rude to treat people who spend money in his restaurant that way and he said " i am too busy, this is a take out restaurant" . He was rude, ungrateful, and and came across as a person who can care less about the people that make him successful. Your experience might be different, but i will never go back and do not recommend a restaurant that treats it's...

(Could've taken better pictures lol.)

AA Poké is another place that I just like a lot. Like Kim Vũ, it's always a safe bet for when you just want to have good food without thinking about it too much. Nothing about it is particularly special, perhaps, but it's always on the back of my mind when trying out other poké places. Maybe it's the Fort Wayne prices that I was getting used to. Maybe it's the firm, flavorful fish, the soft, delectable shumai, or the combination of just-sweet-enough tamago, fresh avocado, crunchy masago and wakame (seaweed) salad on the steaming rice bowl. They also have a killer unagidon and one of the best beef bowls (gyudon) that can be found anywhere in America, not just in a poké or casual place. While AA Poké's not gonna make any publications or win any awards, there's just a lot to like about it. It's very simple and straightforward, which reminds me of... Japan.

TL;DR Try it. It doesn't need many words to prop it up. One paragraph is all that's needed to say.

P.S. Don't get the QQ here lol it's powdered. (QQ is the Taiwanese term for boba /...

I really like this place and I've eaten here several times. I would recommend this place. I would like to offer them some advice. The raw fish is very fishy which is generally not a good sign. Texturally you can also tell The fish was not cured and prepared properly. It was probably directly frozen and cut. It needs a slight bit of curing to pull some of the moisture out to improve the texture. This doesn't have that and it's noticeable. It really tastes and feels defrosted cheap. I'm always hesitant to get the marinated fish because I don't trust it is still be the fish I ordered. Not that I'm confident the tuna is the tuna etc. I would just like to see an effort made to at least create the illusion of quality and proper preparation. I will 100% update my review and add photos. If next time I come in I can tell a noticeable improvement. Feel free to...
