PokeDoke — Restaurant in Kirkwood

I want to sincerely thank you and your team for the care you took in handling my food allergies during my recent visit. This restaurant went above and beyond to accommodate my food allergies, ensuring I could enjoy my meal with complete peace of mind. From the moment I mentioned my dietary restrictions, every staff member was attentive, reassuring, and proactive in making sure my meal was both safe and delicious. The staff were attentive without being intrusive, the service was seamless, and the food was outstanding. Truly a place that cares about both the dining experience and the well-being of their guests. A genuine combination of exceptional service, hospitality, and fantastic food made the experience one I will remember and happily share with others.

The meal I enjoyed during my visit was a regular size bowl with soba noodles, sesame oil, spicy crab, chicken, cucumber, no poke sauce (soy allergies), mango/pineapple, corn, and avocado. It was my version of a perfect allergen free...

Sucks! Sucks! SUCKS! This is one of those Poke shops that gives Poke shops a bad name. I feel like one of these pops up which will be here one day and gone the next while existing only to fill ubereats orders until the game is up and they shut down without letting staff know. The restaurant if absolutely lifeless and smells like a pizza shop more than freshness and vibrancy of Poke. The service is lifeless and stale. The cost for 2 people to eat is just under $40.00 before tipping. I never once saw anyone wash hands, sanitize or do basic sanitary functions between orders. It was like watching school lunch ladies slopping scoops of mush on a conveyer belt. Poke was fine but completely void of effort made with mushy rice and near frozen vegetables. Now comes the worst part of our visit; a massive hair right in the middle of our plate. Thank goodness the long haired employees weren't wearing hairnets and had freedom to scratch their head on top of our food. Its an absolute bust. Why bother...

This is a great Poke spot located in Downtown Kirkwood! We had never been in, and were craving something a bit more light than pizza, or burgers, or tacos. PokeDoke is located in a prime spot, we were shocked we’d never tried it before. The interior is modern and spacious.

The staff were so friendly. The guy who checked us out was so kind and informative. Everything we tried was so good. The Blueberry Boba Milk Tea was sweet and the boba pearls were soft and chewy. We also got Gyoza for an appetizer and 2 Poke bowls.

The Gyoza were crispy and the sauce was tangy. Both of our poke bowls were insanely delicious. My Mom got one with chicken and spring mix, and she said it was so refreshing. My bowl had spicy tuna and ahi tuna with a delicious teriyaki mayo which added a touch of sweetness. The raw fish was pink and fresh.

We will be back. Yes, it’s pricey, but I haven’t had poke this high quality for years. More options than Koibito Poke, but they don’t make it in front...
