I was visiting UConn from NY and made sure to stop by to grab a poke bowl for lunch. That’s how you know this place is amazing! Initially it may not look like much food, but you will end up full. They offer a limited selection vegetable toppings, but it’s all fresh and more than enough to create a delicious bowl. I recommend getting ginger as a topping, it helps cleanse your palate. I’m a big fan of their kanikama (imitation crab); Their salmon and spicy tuna are decent. Make sure to ask for spicy mayo and unagi sauce, the mixture really brings everything together well. They also have a small selection of bubble tea as well, which accompanied the meal nicely. Feel free to explore and don’t be afraid to switch things up...

Read moreSince I can’t leave a comment under Timothy Hall’s one-star review, I have to make one of my own. I WORK HERE and what Timothy said is NOT TRUE. Any tips that we get in our tip jar are distributed between us employees (as is the case for most restaurants) and added to our paycheck. I don’t know where he got the idea that we don’t make tips from, but it is actually harmful to us workers if people think that we don’t actually get our tips. We work really hard for these by trying to provide the best customer service as possible and if someone feels less inclined to leave a tip because of this review then it’s serving the exact opposite purpose of what he’s trying...
