Poke Sushi — Restaurant in New York

My parents had dined here before and said it wasn't bad, so we decided to order delivery for lunch one Friday afternoon. They have some pretty great deals. You can get three rolls of sushi with a soup or a salad for $11.95. You can only choose from the basic rolls section, but there are a lot of rolls to pick from. They probably have at least twice the amount of options for basic rolls than other similar sushi takeout spots. I went with white tuna (my fave), salmon skin, yellowtail scallion. Plus, you can get a bubble tea for a $1 when you order a lunch special (not great but not bad for a dollar. Stick to the black tea). If you order online from their site, you can get an additional 15%, but that doesn't apply to lunch - so just keep that in mind if you ever want to order something for dinner.

The rolls were pretty good, but the wasabi was a bit off. If you don't want to do the basic rolls lunch special, they have kitchen entrees as well. Or you can create your own roll for $4.95. Or you can create your own poke bowl, or choose one of their creations. Lots of options.

Would definitely order from here again or maybe dine...

UPDATE July 2024: They changed the chef and he seemingly changed the Poke Special Sauce, both regular and spicy. There is a slight hint of an Indian Spice in it, like cumin. Who puts Indian spice in Poke Bowl!?! I called them afterwards (takeouts, as always) and they told us they would tell the chef to go back to the old recipe. That was in June. We gave it a try again last week and I called to confirm if they, in fact, changed it back. She said she told the chef but he’s not as good as the old one. She suggested I come in and taste the sauce. Well, I couldn’t, I was packing up a storm so I took the risk and ordered. I opted out from the Spicy version, thinking that’s where the Indian spice would be if it was. Nope! We tasted it in the regular sauce as well. Also, the ingredients were not as fresh as usual. No longer will order from them.

Kawaii was ok when it came to sushi. I dropped by this place when it first conferred over. They have two names : U-Sushi and Poke Sushi. Identity crisis. Well anyways, my first experience in this change over was not a pleasant one. I went in for lunch and ordered two bento boxes to go. After 15 minutes of waiting the waitress, front of house person, came over to tell me she had "accidentally" overcharged me as she place my order in as teriyaki dinner. So...... Ok..... So the manager said he could change my order but would not refund the money.. I was raised to not argue with people who prepare my food, but the waitress was so rude, even though she put in the wrong order.. After much arguing, the waitress finally brought my food over, tossed it onto the sushi counter, said "there's your food" and walked away laughing. Never recommending. Never...
