POKE FUSION BOWL — Restaurant in Gainesville

There are several things that make a business a quality location. And J petal has all of these qualities. Not only do they have amazing service, but they also have wonderful food, and quality menu items. I come here so often I should give them my paycheck. I love the friendly staff, I love the wonderful food, I love the welcoming environment, and very fairly priced menu items. I am never disappointed when I go there and out of the million times I've been here I've never once had an item missing in my food bag. I can't say that about any of the other restaurants that I love, and even if they did forget something in my food bag from an online order I wouldn't be mad. The quality of service here is what makes it and the food is just the cherry on top. I have brought friends and coworkers here and now they're addicted as well. If you're thinking about going here, go! Don't wait you are missing out! It's worth the visit! I love their sushi bowls, sushi burritos, sweet and savory crepes. To this day, there is not a single item on their menu that I don't love. Honestly, just look at all the pictures that everybody posts every menu item is carefully placed together like the food is a work of art! I highly recommend that for your first food experience here, you go in. It's an experience just to watch them make the food because of how technical, precise, and careful they are with the food placement the amount of food they give you and the options that they have. They have my loyalty and all they've done to earn it is being amazing business and I appreciate that. They have a rewards card, online ordering, They have food delivery with an outside vendor, there's nothing more that I could want, and they're in a...

Small, no outdoor seating, kinda rough parking. 3 stars comprised of these factors in addition to it having superior competitors in town. Personally prefer poke bowl station despite similar parking inconveniences.

Bowls were okay size, smaller than some similar businesses. Not the most variety or options to customize, limited to the menu proper strictly. Drinks were forgotten, had to remind staff although she was very pleasant, apologized and promptly finished them. Upcharges seem a little high, more than reasonable or is common, i.e. 1.50 for half an avocado to be added. This option is offered at checkout although the disclosure of its cost was not during my visit.

Can't speak to the crepes or the sweets. The poke bowl itself was decent and met expectations. The teas were fairly on par with competitors, although there was an exceptional amount of ice given their high cost and standard prep.

Cute location, kind staff,...

Came here wanting to try a new sweet, and i was definitely met with that. The restaurant was set up so that you ordered online and they would bring it to the window when ready.

I got a valentine matcha crepe latte, which had an assortment of fruit on it, alongside obviously some matcha! The matcha was great, and tasted higher quality than a lot of other ones I've had. The fruit gives it a nice fresh burst and the crepe is cooked great and a cool alternative to a waffle cone.

I only give it 4 stars as it definitely runs on the pricey side for a dessert and for the portion size you get. They definitely do charge for the experience.

I will say a lot of the less than $5 sushi seems appealing and I would definitely try to come here for lunch one day for cheap sushi just to try. Overall, enjoyable...
