Poke Cafe 2 — Restaurant in Sammamish

I saved this place when I saw an Instagram reel from when they first opened and wanted to come support them. Now that we were in Issaquah, we were craving poke and I wanted to come here as they had less reviews than the other poke places around Issaquah. As we walked up to the entrance, I did notice the food safety sign and was a bit nervous about the low rating especially with an establishment that deals with raw fish. Once we entered inside, there was one customer making his order. They have a digital menu on big screens or a brochure menu near the cash register.

We placed our order which was two large bowls. I got salmon, chicken and shrimp but the man misheard me and put in tuna instead of the shrimp. Now I would have stopped him but he placed the salmon and tuna into a metal tin and put spicy mayo on it before I could stop him. I do like that they marinate it fresh as soggy foods make me gag. I got half salad and white rice with my order as well as a bunch toppings to go with it and everything was pretty good! I was very happy with my bowl but my biggest complaint is that I didn't like that the rice was really hot as it was a weird feeling to eat cold toppings, proteins and salad with hot rice. I feel that if you are better off putting it in the fridge and enjoying it later. I didn't have that option as we wanted to eat out.

The service here was very friendly and professional. We were served by a kind man who welcomed us the moment we walked in and when we left, he bid his a kind farewell. The inside was nice and had a couple tables and chairs for people to enjoy their meal and they offer free water to have with your meal. They had nice soft pop covers playing in the background and the space looked clean. Overall a...

This small business is my go-to almost every week for fresh Vietnamese food and poke bowls!

At first, I thought it was odd that there was this place in the middle of Klahanie that served both authentic Vietnamese dishes and Hawaiian poke bowls but after trying almost every single menu item I was very impressed and can totally see how they fit well together. This is the place to go when you're craving for dishes with lots of fresh veggies like salads, viet rice bowls, poke bowls, banh mi sandwiches, and things you would take on a picnic or even a hike. I like that their setup allows you to choose what toppings/sides you want, it's very customizable. I also really like that the main dishes they offer have ingredients that they all sort of share so there's less food waste.

They have a drink menu that includes milk tea and smoothies. I highly recommend their Thai milk tea! It's so addicting.

The prices are really reasonable, more affordable than most places nowadays, and the staff, especially Mama, are all super sweet and bubbly!

My go-to order lately has been salmon poke bowl or the chicken vermicelli bowl (it has fish sauce, so just fyi you're not into that but it's stored in a separate container so you can skip it!), and the...

I can't say enough good things about this place! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a fresh, vibrant atmosphere that perfectly matches the incredible food. The ingredients are unbelievably fresh, the portions are generous, and the flavors—wow! Each bowl is a perfect balance of textures and tastes, making every bite a delight.

What really sets this spot apart is the attention to detail. The variety of toppings and sauces lets you customize your bowl exactly the way you like it, whether you're craving something light and refreshing or bold and flavorful. And let's not forget the service—friendly, fast, and always happy to offer recommendations.

If you're a poke fan (or even if you've never tried it before), this place is an absolute must-visit. It’s the perfect go-to for a healthy, satisfying meal that never disappoints....
