Summer is the season of Poke in my opinion because you don’t want to eat anything too hot but need it to be filling and refreshing. Grayson and I usually get our poke to-go so we can enjoy it on the beach or at a park but this time around we decided to dine-in because….we literally couldn’t close the lids on our Steve’s Poké bowls!
Good selection of protein, toppings and sauces. The ingredients treated fresh and the staff was friendly. I had the shoyu salmon and spicy salmon, and they were seasoned just right for me.
Our first experience with Steve’s Poke Bar was with their location up at SFU. While we were quite impressed with their poke, we’re hardly ever up in the SFU area. So I was quite pleased that they opened up a brand new spot in the new food court area of Lougheed Town Centre. While there are a ton of “poke” shops that have opened up around town over the last couple of years, I find that most of them are a far cry from the simple and classic poke that you get in Hawaii. In my opinion, toppings are great, but should take a back seat to the main attraction… the sashimi. Fortunately, Steve’s is one of the places around town that seems to get that and tries to stick with the Hawaiian-style of poke while still offering customers the option of adding the toppings of their choice (after all, Vancouverites are quite fickle when it comes to food).
