Stopped in for a cool bite to eat. Great spot. Got a chicken bowl with lettuce, mango, pineapple, red onion and a couple of sauses that were recommended.

First time here and will absolutely return. I had the mango tango salmon salad and it was delicious. Should have gotten two but next time.

Absolutely love this place and it's food. Any time I have questions about my order they are always more than happy to explain it to me politely.

Unfortunately, the best food I've had delivered in town & It is too convenient for my metaphorical pocketbook. I will say, I'm embarrassed to dine-in at such a bougie chain, so I always order delivery. (btw, the wanton chips & some other sides aren't enough volume for their cost, maybe that's how they keep the mains affordable, idk) But it's so good

I ordered a BYOB through DoorDash wanting something fresh and delicious, and I was not disappointed. The cucumbers were crisp, the mango and pineapple were sweet, and the tuna was good quality. I was very happy with the portion size as well, especially for the cost!

First time at FreshFin Poke and absolutely LOVED it. Such a cute place with pretty interiors. Offers a nice fusion take to poke bowl jand they also have vegan options available. The name does justice to the food offered. The Poke bowls are prepared with the freshest ingredient and bursting with flavors. Well done! We tried the Spicy Tuna and Rainbow bowl and both were so fresh and delicious. Ordered the regular size and it was plenty. I cannot wait to go back and try the other bowls on the menu. It’s a 10/10 for me, highly recommend!!
