    I probably eat here more often than any other place in Milwaukee- and everyone I take there gets hooked on it too! Fresh, delicious, always filling, and a variety of bowls to choose from! I love being to add a few of your own toppings for free. Don’t forget it sign up for their points system and earn yourself some free poke!

    The best dining experience we have had in months! The food was fresh and very tasteful. I recommend this place even if you are in company of “ picky eaters “. Before we were half way through our meal my children asked me when we could come back. It meant a lot to us to receive such exceptional service all the way around. Thank you FreshFin!!

    Great place for a quick and fresh meal. They have vegetarian options available. They also have the calories listed on the menu which is fantastic when you need to grab a bite to go when watching what you're eating. Bright and lively atmosphere with good music. It can be a bit tricky to find street parking though, but in a nice part of town. Definitely recommend this place if you're trying to eat clean. Will definitely be returning!

    My first visit today was great. And when this opens in corners mall it will be really good. Compared to the other poke place in Mayfair mall? This was much better. Zen bowl was tasty. Make your own bowl has lots of options. Two sizes <$14 is good deal. Place was clean and spacious. Parking is a challenge in this area. Overall good spot to eat healthy and tasty.

    Surprisingly great food! I say this because it was my first time eating here and I just stopped in while walking down the block. I had the cilantro chicken bowl. Very healthy & natural ingredients, generous portions and it all tasted wonderful! Healthy eaters, indulge!

    For starters, this place is very clean and the staff was very friendly. They have some tables closed for social distancing, which is pretty important right now. The bathroom also smelled amazing, which was a nice change of pace from some of the restrooms we've seen in the area. We got a build your own poke bowl with salmon and tuna. All of the ingredients were fresh and delicious, although they were a little lacking in quantity considering you are given "unlimited toppings." Also a little disappointed that there was an added charge for adding raw fish to the bowl, but we were happy with the amount and size of the pieces of fish. Nonetheless, it was delicious, and if you're debating checking this place out, you totally should.

    Had no idea what poke was before this place. Now I'm hooked.

    First time ever having Poké and it was such a great experience. The server who took our order was so knowledgeable, friendly and super passionate about poké and her restaurant. We will most certainly be coming back soon! Edit: 10/31/2022 Just as good, if not better. Mostly order delivery or takeout. Tried our other poke restaurants but keep coming back here. #1 in our book.

    As a fusion poke restaurant, the food is pretty good! Nate, the co-owner, is a generous and hard working guy. Watch out for the future of this place. It will only get better! - A guy from Hawaii

    Good food!

  • 5/5 Grace B. 9 months ago on Google
    If you want fresh, good food this is the place to good. It is a little bit on the pricier side but you get what you pay for. The bowls taste absolutely amazing and the atmosphere is great!

  • 5/5 Ahmed A. 5 years ago on Google
    This place should have branches everywhere in the US. Great taste and healthy food at the same time. The most favorite for me is the Coconut Curry ... AMAZING. Don't forget to try the seasonings, these are a different story.

  • 5/5 Alexander B. 4 years ago on Google
    Really fresh ingredients. Generous portions. The kids loved it too!

  • 5/5 Da S. 4 years ago on Google

    THEIR FOOD IS SO TASTY. A woman told me she goes there 3 times a week and honestly that's about to be me.

    Mango tango over greens! Obsessed with this bowl! Super fresh greens and toppings, sushi grade salmon finished with the perfect combination of sweet, savory crunch!

  • 5/5 Paul Z. 5 years ago on Google
    Amazing food and service. The dishes themselves are very filling yet aren’t huge, so you feel pleasantly full. Make sure to try this place if you get the chance!

  • 5/5 Mariela P. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious! Hungry Warrior and Mango Tango.

  • 5/5 Remy S. 1 year ago on Google
    Asked for a recommendation and was surprised when he offered me a vegan bowl. I wasn't expecting much at first, but my doubt was delightfully turned around. Best poké place I know!

  • 5/5 louis c. 2 years ago on Google
    Such VERY good menu items, I cannot be more excited about this place. The food was off the hook good and I must say I was very impressed with the quality. If in the area, I highly recommend this as a place to stop in and enjoy a quality meal

  • 4/5 Shauna H. 5 years ago on Google
    My boyfriend loves this place. We were there for their grand opening awhile back and continue to return. Its not my favorite place as I'm a picky eater and really have to tweak what I get (I won't eat raw fish) What I do like about it is that it's healthy. Since we no longer reside in Milwaukee when we come to town we're often left eating a lot of bar food so this helped us keep some balance. It's certainly worth trying out. They have many topping options (edamame, radish, jalapeno, carrots, pineapple, etc) as well as sous vide chicken and I even recently saw Kalua pork, though it was not on their build your own bowl menu or I'd have tried that. Their sauces are house made and you can pick your rice. As for beverages, they have fountain sodas, cold and hot tea and sometimes juices. The place is nice and clean and bright.

    Delicious healthy options! Not long for a wait. Worth every penny!

  • 5/5 DemanDeSoleil 2 years ago on Google
    I liked this poke place. Again, all ingredients were very fresh, staff were polite, service was great and quick. Placed our ordered via app, got prepared faster than it was initially scheduled. Worth visiting!

  • 5/5 Kendra P. 4 years ago on Google
    Shrimp Curry Coconut is AMAZING!!!!

  • 5/5 Dave 5 years ago on Google
    FreshFin is awesome. I love high quality sushi and believe me that's what you'll find here. Their bowls are great with the combinations of ingredients; or you can change up the ingredients VERY easy. You will pay a bit extra for the quality here but it's WORTH EVERY CENT!!! The crispy onions (crispy tempura bits I call them) and the Sriracha Aioli are some of the best I've every tasted. I lived in Hawaii for 3yrs enjoying some of the freshest sushi on the planet and I assure you FreshFin is THE spot to go!!! I love the Spicy Ahi Tuna bowl (minus Jalapeno, add avocado). TUESDAY IS TUNA TUESDAYS FOR $2 THE SPICY TUNA BOWL!!! My wife had the "Avo-Keto" bowl seen here with Ahi tuna. (She added the seaweed salad which she later noticed a high carb count from DOH!) but JUST THE SALAD AND PROTEIN IS KETO SAFE. YUM!!!!

  • 5/5 Chrix A. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice location. But much better are the bowls ;) We tried Spicy Tuna and Salmon. Perfect. My picky friend never ate Poke and felt directly in love with this gourmet mix. Service is also top. Therefore my recommendation. Go go go and enjoy. Also when you look out of the window and see another Poke restaurant. But it is not better;) Only (but therefore I won’t kill a star) the plastic things make no sense, when you eat this healthy food. But must be an owner decision. I will come back. We will see what they will have than ;)

  • 5/5 Amy B. 5 years ago on Google
    This is the only restaurant that I've ever had poke at so I don't have anything to compare it to, but simply by itself it's absolutely amazing. If you aren't sure what poke is, to me it's like sushi in a bowl. A deconstructed sushi roll if you will. It's a little pricey, but compared to sushi and seafood prices it's right on par. We stopped in on a random Saturday and they weren't very busy. I ordered the Mango Tango, but they were out of mango. That didn't really make sense to me as I feel like you should probably have all the ingredients (especially the main one) for your recipes, but I understand things happen. The cashier informed me they were out and then offered to substitute pineapple and any other ingredient I wanted due to the inconvenience which I appreciated. My husband built his own and had a great time doing so. The wait to get the actual bowls wasn't very long and they are presented very nicely. My only complaint is that I wish the bowls were slightly larger for the amount of ingredients that are in them. It made it very hard to mix up the bowls in order to get a bite of everything in one go. Or maybe serve a plate underneath them so we could potentially dump it out and mix it up. Or maybe I'm just eating it all wrong and I shouldn't be mixing it up. Regardless, the flavors blended beautifully and it was delicious. You felt full after but not that 'gross I can't move full'. It was more of a happy, pleasantly comfortable sort of full.

    Was on the east side of Milwaukee, so stopped here for lunch. I like spicy, and I was able to "build my bowl" to my own specifications. It was very fresh, and very good. It was prepared quickly, and accurately. And best yet, it was nice and spicy. Endless possibilities with proteins, sauces, rices, and probably 20 vegies, add ins, etc. Will be back!!!!

  • 5/5 Holly A. 6 years ago on Google
    I came here with a few of my friends and loved it! You can grab any table you want and then go up to the counter to order. I had the curry coconut shrimp and chicken poke bowl. It had a bit of a spice kick but I loved it! Don't underestimate their size, these bowls are really filling! Will definitely be back!

  • 5/5 Mari T. 6 years ago on Google
    Delicous, large portions for sushi bowls at a reasonable price! Large pieces of fish so you get a great deal and great flavor! Also just a lovely atmosphere altogether.

  • 5/5 Cooper W. 3 years ago on Google
    I love this place. The original poké focused restaurant in Milwaukee. I am absolutely obsessed with their Spicy Tuna bowl. Easily my favorite poke stop out if all the new poke restaurants opening up.

    Clean, fresh, fast, full portions, and friendly people.

  • 4/5 Trent R. 4 years ago on Google
    Great portions, fresh ingredients, this spot handled themselves very clean during this pandemic. Online ordering was easy. Only exception, they ran out of the fresh salmon, which was disappointing. Other than that, a solid place!

  • 5/5 Madyun W. 4 years ago on Google
    Light and filling meal and I like to doll it up with everything!

  • 5/5 Tracy R. 4 years ago on Google
    So good. Can you please open a place in kenosha!

    Tasty! It's like easy sushi!

  • 2/5 Camden H. 4 years ago on Google
    my coworker and I have both gotten incredibly sick from the food here. sweet and caring staff, but I would not recommend.

  • 5/5 Matthew T. 4 years ago on Google
    Best poke in Milwaukee. They do keep figuring out ways to sneak in a price increase every few months it seems.

  • 5/5 Cindi D. 4 years ago on Google
    Delicious! Amazing! Fresh! Healthy!

  • 4/5 Dave S. 4 years ago on Google
    Not real Hawaiian poke. More like a rice bowl with toppings. It was still good though.

  • 5/5 Courtney B. 4 years ago on Google
    Loved It!

  • 5/5 Chris M. 4 years ago on Google
    This is still Milwaukee’s best poke bowls , the new menu is also appealing .

  • 5/5 Doug J. 4 years ago on Google
    What wonderful flavors.

  • 5/5 Katya F. 4 years ago on Google
    The food was outstanding and the fish tasted very fresh. This is a great place for ordering out and I will definitely be coming back for business :) This place also offers many options as far as costumizing your Poke bowl, so it's perfect for picky eaters or people with restrictive diets.

  • 5/5 Warren A. 4 years ago on Google
    Fresh ingredients, great flavors, friendly staff. Save on you Spicy Tuna bowl on Tuna Tuesdays (but only if you ask).

  • 5/5 Marsha J. 4 years ago on Google
    Good food

  • 5/5 Morgan B. 4 years ago on Google
    Super great food! Lines are short. A bit pricey but if you get a punch card and fill it up you get a free bowl and they donate to the Milwaukee Rescue Mission!
