One of our favorite poke places because of the fresh ingredients, perfect portions, and good pricing. It's $14 for their 2 protein poke bowl and $16 for their 3 protein poke bowl. Avocados are available without an additional fee. For their toppings, you can choose a max of 6 different toppings (they have 2 different crab salads and you can get both the spicy and original as long as you're within your max of 6 toppings). All of their ingredients are so fresh! For the price point, I would say that the portion and amount of topping selections are generous. The place is very nice and clean too for dine-in, lots of seatings. They also sell other items like sushi, takoyaki, miso soup, etc. Follow @hangrytrails.us on Instagram for more foods

Listen--I wasn't even into poke like that before Uroko. But my girl put me onto this and we've been eating here like twice a week. Just do yourself a favor and come try it, at least once. Damn near every protein they have here is good; the toppings and sauces really come together--it's heaven okay. Also the vibes are always right and tight in here. Whoever's in charge of the music, please keep doing what you're doing. They keep the place clean and organized. Everyone's real friendly. Good food, good vibes.

This place is a legitimate poke place. In my opinion, it's the best in town. Also great for kids, they offer a kid friendly bowl. Besides poke they also have sushi rolls. Portions are large, with 3 scoops I only eat half. Lots of seating. Line moves fast. Great value & quality. Will definitely be returning.

I love that this place has vegan protein options. They have tofu, a vegan meat, mushrooms. I also like that they have blanched broccoli that you can have as a base instead of just salad. You can choose 2 bases. There is a good amount of seating including booths or bigger tables. You get in line and order what you want in the bowl. While in line there is also a paper pad that you can use to mark what you want instead of naming everything when you get to a staff member. However, what I didn't like is the paper pad isn't update. It says you need to choose between various toppings and the vegan meat/mushroom isn't on there which can be misleading. When I asked the person helping me with my bowl, you can actually choose a max of 6 items in addition to your proteins (which you can choose from 1-3 for different prices). They also have preset ones including ones with torching like a "volcano" bowl. The portion is decent and everything was pretty tasty. They work quickly as well and have an assembly line.

Decent poke in the area if you're out of ideas or options. Like many poke bars it's a build your own type of place. With that being said, these poke bowls are big. Unfortunately the poke selection wasn't as extensive as I'd hoped but the quality's there. Otherwise, mix up all the sides and poke and sauces and just eat it all up together. Can't imagine much more to say, it's good food and very little nonsense to go along with it.

This is my go-to for poke. Their selection of what you can add to your bowl is more robust compared to other poke places near me and the portions are great. In peak times like lunch time there might be a line but the service is fast. Although the parking lot is not big, I have always been able to find parking and the inside of the shop has a lot of seating. I have tried this place multiple times just to see if there were inconsistencies but my experience has always been 10/10.

Parking can be tough because the lot is pretty small. Typical poke where you go through a line, order at the counter and sit after paying. Everything is clean and nice. Poke is yummy! I love that avocado can count as one of your sides without extra charge. They also have a wide variety of toppings. Good portion sizes! Be sure to check in for a free miso soup! Def would come back

Food: came here on a whim with my adventurous boyfriend, we were both craving poke or some kinda raw fish, and this place hit the spot. It was good standard poke, fresh and tasty with decent size portion. The original sauce with spicy miso really packed the flavor in our poke. Wish the topping scoops were slightly larger though, such smol avocado and crab and seaweed. If you check in on yelp, you can get free miso soup Price: pretty reasonable, 2 scoops is $14, 3 scoops is $16, and 5 scoops is $19 Ambiance: large interior with lots of booths and tables inside, saw a group of people hanging out, along with couples or families, great for casual hangouts Service: ok, the workers were nice and got all the things we asked for, but looked very burnt out and tired, but no issues at all with service Parking: has attached parking lot that is decent sized right in front of the store entrance, had no trouble finding available spot on random Thursday evening

Uroko Cafe is a poke restaurant located in a small plaza on the corner of a gas station. There's a small parking lot but can get full during busy lunch and dinner times. They have options of 2 proteins ($14), 3 proteins ($16), and 5 proteins ($19) of fish. You choose your base, sides, proteins, sauce, and toppings. The resulting bowl is a big poke bowl with pretty good portions. This place might actually be one of the only places I've seen that has avocado as an included side and not an option for an extra cost. The portions were large, the price was great, and the bowl was delicious. This is a place I will come back to when I want a quick and affordable meal.
