Kirei Poke — Restaurant in Seattle

This was so good that I came two days in a row...

TLDR: generous portions, fair pricing, good ambience, friendly staff. Great place for dining in (they have a water station) or taking out (you can go for a stroll by the water or picnic at gas works). Food is flavorful and relatively healthy. Free unlimited toppings!

I saw that they have a really good rating (4.9) so decided to give it a try. I walked in and there's a $16.99 walk in special with two proteins and a free miso soup!

They also were SO generous with the portions, sauce combos, and toppings were unlimited and free! As you can see in the picture, they LOADED both of my bowls. I love the spicy crab salad in particular. They also have free fortune cookies which was cute and a nice sweet treat.

I also love that they have cooked protein options because I don't eat raw fish. They have beef, scallops, shrimp, and chicken.

Their dining area is quaint with, I think, 4 tables. I think people mostly take out. I sat and ate there for around half an hour and thought the ambiance was really nice. They also had a water and utensils/soy sauce station for anyone dining in.

The portion was also so big for me that it lasted two meals (yay value!). That was basically my food for one day. And then the next day, I was craving a healthy flavorful meal again, so I came back for dinner lol, but did takeout this time. The food was still fresh when I got home and very enjoyable.

Overall my experiences have been great and I think I will now become a...

I went in the first day this place opened and I could tell the people working there were excited to start selling their customizable poke bowls. So many options. My poke bowl was delicious, because I am personally really good at picking out things I enjoy. The large bowl comes with a lot of protein options and the extra options also included things that could make a very healthy and satisfying lunch or dinner. The fish was very fresh and the tamago and broiled eel I got were cooked perfectly, like just as good as any fancy sushi place. I was amazed at the low price for how many beautiful and tasty things I got in my bowl and the spam musubi I got on the side was tasty too. I would recommend this to anyone especially people who like customizing their meal, I seriously didn't expect to have so many options from toppings to the type of rice of the base. So so...

I really don’t like leaving bad reviews, but it’s important when I’m expecting a 4.9 meal. Sadly, the rice wasn’t warm, the crab salad didn’t have any flavor to it, and overall it just wasn’t as delicious as I was hoping it would be. The smell of the restaurant was like chlorine bleach. Had to ask for my order to go. I’m the ahí tuna tasted off. The service by the girl that attended me was great- but super disappointed in the flavor. I don’t think they’re at a 4.9. I’ve been trying different poke restaurants around two. And this has been my least favorite. 🙁...
