Poke Bowl Station — Restaurant in Manheim Township

Poke Bowl, formerly Norito, is a great spot for a quick, fresh, office time lunch. My employees and I go here at least twice a month. The food is fresh, the service is quick, and it's a much healthier (and tastier) option than most chains along Fruitville Pike in Lancaster.

This is a 'subway' style restaurant in which you start with a bowl of rice (or salad) then pick your proteins and veges down the line. There are tons of different combinations ranging from Tuna, Salmon, Shrimp, Eel, Tempura, Crab salad, and more, to corn, carrots, seaweed salad, ginger, jalapenos and so forth.

If you're leaving bad reviews based on customer service, especially during covid19, you need a reality check. This is a quick, subway-style served lunch joint, not a 5-star bistro.

This place is a hidden gem for BOBA - honestly I think it's better than the joint across the street. They have a good variety to choose from - I ordered the osmanthus milk tea, which most places around the area don't even offer. It was creamy and you could actually taste the aroma of the tea. So good. Not overly sweet either plus the boba was perfectly cooked and chewy.

As for the food, I've had better poke bowls but it's good considering we're nowhere near Hawaii or the ocean. Ingredients tastes fresh, however flavor was just lacking a little. The Korean poke bowl could've had more gochujang flavor and heat to it. But overall we had a...
