Hula Poke - San Antonio

This restaurant serves the best poke bowls I've had in San Antonio, coming very close to my benchmark, Poke for the People on Oahu's North Shore. All the ingredients were fresh, and the staff was friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about some items I wasn't familiar with. I tried the three-protein bowl with eel, tuna, and spicy tuna, and the toppings and sauces were fantastic! I could barely finish it. My wife ordered the two-protein bowl and had enough leftovers for a snack later.

My initial visit to Hula Poke was a major letdown. I ordered three types of protein but only received one. After informing an employee about the issue, I had to make several calls to reach a manager, who essentially accused me of lying. Not only did she refuse to rectify my order, but she also acted like she wasn’t the manager to avoid taking my call. I ended up paying $27 for a bowl of lettuce and tofu. This was undoubtedly the worst poke experience in San Antonio. If you want quality poke, I recommend finding another place!

Update 8/13/24: three years later and we are still regulars. Consistently fresh ingredients, friendly owners, a delightful choice any time. 10/5/2020: Second visit in two days. Absolutely delicious! Everything you expect from a Poke place, fresh ingredients, tasty sauces, flavorful sashimi.

The food was incredibly delicious! I can't wait to return again.

Hula Poke is my go-to spot whenever I'm craving something fresh and healthy! Their poke bowls are absolutely delicious and packed with vibrant flavors. The ingredients are always so fresh and you can tell they use high-quality fish and produce. The customizable options make it easy to create a bowl that suits your taste perfectly. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is casual and inviting. Whether you're a poke enthusiast or trying it for the first time, Hula Poke is definitely worth a visit!
