Who We Are
Our Mission
Poke2u was founded in 2017 with the goal of bringing high-quality, customizable, and affordable Asian favorites to the masses, using a combination of both traditional ingredients and original recipes to raise the bar of what poke can be. We know raw fish isn’t for everyone, so we offer a little something for all, crafting Korean Barbeque, Ramen, and Sushi Rolls to your specifications.
Stop by our original location in Downtown Tempe, try our newest location in Downtown Phoenix, or order online from our website, Grubhub, Postmates, UberEats, Fantuan, or Doordash.
Want to bring Poke2U to your next business meeting? We are also available through Office Express and Platterz catering for your next corporate event!
Our Food
Poke2U serves made-to-order poke bowls, poke wraps, barbeque bowls, ramen bowls, and sushi. Combining elements of Hawaiian, Japanese, and Korean cuisine, our unique take lets customers have complete control over every element of their meal while experiencing some of the best flavors of the Pacific.
Our poke bowls are served on a base of fresh sushi rice, which we prepare from scratch using traditional methods every single morning. This is not plain, flavor-free steamed rice like our competition; new employees usually train for over 3 months before they’re able to make rice to our specifications, a lightly sweetened pure and fluffy rice that is firm and not too sticky. Choose from white sushi rice, brown sushi rice, salad, or a combination of two of those to make your base, then top it with crab meat, spicy crab meat, sweet onions, cucumbers, or avocado.
For Poke Bowls, choose from freshly cut tuna or salmon, lightly seared albacore, house-made spicy tuna, tomago, a Japanese egg omelet, tofu, octopus, ginger-brined shrimp, or scallops, and either eat it plain or add one of our Korean-inspired poke sauces. You can opt for our non-spicy, mild, medium, or spicy house blend, or mix and match sauces from our house-made ponzo, sesame oil, house-made mango, house-made spicy mayo, sriracha, chili paste or teriyaki sauce. Once we mix in the sauce, choose from 16 different toppings, a carefully prepped collection of fresh vegetables, dried ingredients, and fermented foods that we know perfectly accompany our food.
For BBQ Bowls, choose from Teriyaki Chicken, Bulgogi-Style Beef, or Korean Spicy Pork instead of the other proteins. The poke wraps, also known as sushi burritos, are composed of the same ingredients and steps as well, but the food is rolled in either seaweed or soy paper so it can be eaten on the go.
Our Sushi Rolls are made-to-order by our team of trained chefs, and emphasize both the quality of the rice and the fish that goes into every bowl. We currently offer 30 rolls, and can make minor alterations to each if ordered in-store.
