Uncle Sharkii Poke Bar — Restaurant in Torrance

Crosspost

Service+: a little slow .but they were very nice! Prep was also slower but I understand why with what goes into it and everyone being new to this new addition to the food court

Price +: It's $12.50avg for bowl. Which I think is about average for poke but there can be possibly cheaper places

+Food+: pretty delicious! The fish was fresh and there were a variety of toppings. Pick :- rice , half rice half salad, or salad base Spicy or non spicy Comes with all toppings and avocado is extra

Me and my partner got the ahi tuna and salmon bowl (number 1) and the spicy tuna bowl (number 4) . The bowl was filled to the brim. The ratio of fish to base was pretty good and they didn't skimp on the saucing

I also got the mix of pineapple and strawberry dole soft serve dessert. There was no dairy in this. The dessert was really good albeit on the sweeter side than I expected. But I also am more sensitive to sweeter things so it might be just right to some people.

Bubble tea is also available but I did not purchase this

+other+ we went on an afternoon on a Sunday so it was busy . There was only one cashier open at the time and their POS system was not set up yet so it was cash only . There seemed to be a consistent line of at least 4-ish people so not the best place to go to if you are pressed on time. They also didn't have the lime dessert I wanted to try so they might not be fully stocked on their items just yet.

It's a new place but looks like a good option the next time I'm craving seafood and have some extra time to wait for it

Hope...

Located inside Del Amo Fashion Center, this little poke bar also serves boba tea. You can choose from a variety of protein combos, including fish and shrimp. I went with the ahi tuna and salmon poke bowl (around $16 plus tax). It already comes with assorted toppings, and you can pick rice, salad, or a half-and-half base. Then choose your sauce and add extras (like avocado) for an additional fee.

Pros: • Generous portion of veggies and toppings • Quick, friendly service • Plenty of seating in the mall’s food court

Cons: • The ahi tuna and salmon portions were on the smaller side compared to other poke places • The bowl itself is shallow, making it look fuller than it actually is.

If you’re already at the mall and craving poke, this is a solid spot to grab a quick bowl. But I wouldn’t make a special trip just...

Ah, Wednesday. Hump day. The middle of the week.

After yesterday’s little …excursion… I wanted to give it another go at the Del Amo mall. And boy, was I satisfied with this choice!

I’m usually not a Poke Bowl kind of guy, but since I work at an Asian food restaurant myself, I thought it was only fair that I expand my palette and better know the product.

Accompanied by a dear friend, we ventured out to the food court, headed for Sharkii’s, and I got myself a Tuna and Salmon Poke Bowl. I’ve got to say, I was wowed! It was an explosion of flavor and texture, expertly crafted and beautifully presented. Plus, my order came out quickly. Quality AND efficiency!

I’ll definitely have to return here the next time I visit the West Coast. Here’s to...
