Poki Bowl (Ontario) — Restaurant in Ontario

I had a disappointing and concerning experience at this poke place. I ordered a poke bowl and within 30 minutes of eating, I experienced severe nausea, vomiting, cold sweats, and burping. The symptoms were intense enough to disrupt my day, though they subsided within 24 hours. This rapid onset strongly suggests food poisoning, possibly from improperly stored fish or contaminated ingredients.

The timing points to the poke bowl, as I hadn’t eaten anything else recently. No one else I know who ate there reported similar issues, so it might have been an isolated incident, but it’s still concerning. I hope the restaurant investigates their food handling and storage practices to prevent this from happening to others.

I’d urge caution when dining here until they can ensure consistent food safety. Food poisoning is no joke, and I won’t be returning...

I usually come here before shopping at the Costco business warehouse next door. The place is busy with office workers from nearby. They also have beer on tap as well as boba drinks.

He said to wait a minute and asked the lady in the back if she was ready to serve. She said she could and I was ecstatic. The customer service was top notch, the food was fabulous and the portion sizes were the best I've seen!! I go to Costco Business pretty much weekly for the next 12 weeks. This will be my stop every time. And any time I'm in the neighborhood.

Great establishment, people and food!...
