D	Daniel Oh on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nice place. Ingredients are fresh and nicely prepared. Very friendly staff who are eager to improve and to become more creative in ways that will satisfy customers. If you have time, give it a try. It is different experience from Rolltation or any other franchise poke places. Their set menu changes everyday since they have “Favourites of the day”. Also you can create your own. The portion can be a little small. But I loved the fact that one of the owners approached me and my wife and other customers to get feedbacks and exchanged opinions. This was something unique for me to see in a poke place (or maybe any other places). The overall experience was good.
C	Camile Gauthier on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Perfection in a bowl. Poke may be somewhat of a new thing in Toronto, but Umami Poke has perfected it. They're menu is simple (at the moment), but every option they have assembled just elevates this simple dish to something of awe. If you want a great quote "This is the best thing I've ever had." my 7-year old chimed-in within 2 bites. Do yourself the favour, there are few better taste values in this city than Umami Poke.
A	Annie Yang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Poke was delicious and the servers were very nice. The ingredients used are very fresh and the sauce was delicious. The place is a build your own bowl style but I would prefer if pre-made options were available as I don't have the expertise of what tastes good in a Poke Bowl. The interior has a nice vibe, very friendly and welcoming.
M	Matthew Hum on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ They set up a patio for us after we called. It's not that busy on the street so pretty peaceful vibes. Food was really tasty with unlimited toppings. Very fresh fish and flavorful sauces. The servers were very friendly. He even brought out some fish treats for our dogs! Will come here again!
N	Nathalie M on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I tried ordering online before picking up but it was close to the time that they closed so when I entered the payment info, I got a message saying that the salmon was not available anymore. I ended up calling them to see if I could still place an order and the staff was able to place it for me. When I got there, within 10 min of calling, my order was ready for pick up. I was thankful that they were so quick and able to accommodate my order right before closing time. I was happy with my poke bowl. It was fresh and has lots of different ingredients. I love that they offer zucchini pasta as an alternative to rice. They have a lot of sauces and I’m curious to try more of them. Will come back again!
J	John N on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Got the salmon bowl, it's pretty decent. The rice was a little hard and it got stuck to the bowl. The salmon was good but the portion of the scoop is pretty small for a regular. Good for quick bite.
H	Hungry Piggy on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is one of the best Poke places we have tried. Sadly it's located downtown and so far out of the way for us, as we try to avoid downtown. My husband googled a random poke bowl that was close by to where I was wedding dress shopping and so happy we found Umami Poke. We love that they do build your own poke (I am a picky eater). Build Your Own Poke: Base: You get a choice between 4 options, 2 rice, 2 noodles Umami Poke: Theres about 10 choices available Mix In: You can mix in your Poke Bowl with about 8 different fresh ingredients they have on hand Top Off: and to top it off you get about 8-10 choices to top off your poke bowl with. The flavours of the poke is amazing and they have two sizes to choose from. We cant wait to come back for more.
C	Catotuna on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Regular Poke Bowl: $15 Small Poke Bowl: $10 Pricing as of February 1st 2022 Was craving a poke bowl so decided to give this place a go. Pricing was much higher then I thought it would be when I got there. Got two fish bowls with regular ingredients + avocado and seaweed, ended up paying $40. I don’t usually go to poke bowl places so maybe that’s normal? Be the judge yourself. The bowl itself had good amount of rice, quantity of tuna was also average in my opinion. There was lack of vegetables. I asked for everything so I was expecting more. Disappointing element was probably the sauce. Got K-Town and tasted no garlic chilli or sweetness in it. All in all an average poke bowl. If you get it you won’t be disappointed, but you also won’t be impressed.
