Island Poke - Massapequa Park

Restaurant Bar Japanese restaurant Ramen restaurant Hawaiian restaurant Poke bar

👍👍 For a chain poke restaurant my expectations were low, and they were blown out of the water. The fish is so fresh and delicious, all of the vegetables and topics were like they just harvested them, and it was so tasty. I am SO impressed! The man at the counter was super nice, ordering is easy since... People often mention bowl, poke, delicious, bowls, order,

    Very impressed. Fresh, great quality ingredients, and, awesome tasting. We both had the rice bowls; hubby had the Beef Gyuden & I had the Shrimp Teriyaki. First poke bowl experiences & we loved. Server and manager were very nice. We ate inside. Small clean space with a nice modern cafe like decor & a couple of outdoor cafe tables. We'll be back, thank you!

    The food here is delicious. I do recommend the bowls. However, I do not recommend the milk tea.

    Good food but the service is way way too slow. Took almost an hour for them to get a to go order ready. If you’re ordering from here make sure you plan ahead.

The fish is so fresh and delicious, all of the vegetables and topics were like they just harvested them, and it was so tasty. I am SO impressed! The man at the counter was super nice, ordering is easy since you can just fill out the paper, and parking is easy if you go through the back. Overall 10/10 experience, I can’t wait to come back here!

    This seems to be a popular spot for takeout, but the interior is clean and modern. I don’t know if they offer free WiFi, but I could spend a couple of hours here eating and working on a laptop. I was a little overwhelmed by the menu, so I asked the employee which of two options they’d choose. I went with their selection, the tuna bowl and it was flavorful and filling. My only wish is that it had some sort of crunchy element. The Hawaiian Sun canned beverages are delicious and pair perfectly with a poke bowl. On my next visit I’ll likely try one of their ramen offerings. Island Poke is in a great location, situated in the middle of Massapequa’s picturesque, walkable Main Street. If you’ve still got an appetite after eating here there’s several baked good spots on the block.

    I am a repeat customer of this hidden gem. My favorite dish is definitely the Umami Miso Salmon poke bowl. It's a tasty, filling meal.

    -DoorDash order Nov 2nd- Sorry my review took so long to post as I was dealing with the food poisoning issue received by making the mistake of not smelling my order before taking a bite. You should be absolutely ashamed to call yourselves a food establishment. I have had raw fish across America hundreds of times and not once have I been met with the displeasure of having obviously OLD ROTTEN raw fish, one can not forget the taste. You should be shut down Beware. Update- Not only did you serve me raw rotting fish, now you’re calling me a lair. Posting this as a warning to others.

    Both pork bone & soy base soups are 10-15% more salty than our expectations. They need to be a weee hotter too.

    Very cute place I usually ordered from when I lived nearby but have visited twice with family. The atmosphere is sweet and my parents were very impressed with the food. Healthy and delicious. The pickled shiitake mushrooms are to die for. Will always seek out their food when visiting.

    Perfectly clean and bright establishment with tasty ramen and poké bowl options. This is our second time here within a month and we are already planning our return!

  • 2/5 Vetal L. 10 months ago on Google
    Food is always decent to say the least. However something needs to be changed with your staff. They have no urgency when it comes to making orders. Waiting 25 minutes for one poke bowl while I watch one lady all by herself struggle making order after order while two men virtually do nothing behind her. Absolutely atrocious service and had I been a first time customer. I would’ve never come back. GET IT TOGETHER !!

    Finally got around to trying this spot today and really enjoyed it! I am a huge overall sushi fan and the spicy tuna poke bowl hit the spot. It was flavorful the large bowl was very filling. It was about $17 for just the bowl but I think it was relevant to other prices in the area and for what was given (aka a lot of food in the bowl). I went around 4 pm and the service was quick - I was in and out within 7 minutes. The service worker was delightful as well. Saw a father and what appeared to be his 2 daughters enjoying a meal sitting down inside as well. Overall, friendly clean environment and good food.

    First time here, very friendly staff, eager to help explain any of the items on the menu. The food was delicious, fresh & healthy. Will definitely be back

    Amazing food and overall experience! Staff was friendly and very helpful when choosing what is the best to eat here!

    Great little joint with excellent food. We both got ramen. Food was fresh and delicious. They also currently have some saki that was nice and refreshing. Will definitely go back.

  • 5/5 Lauren A. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is fresh, delicious and almost too beautiful to eat. The poke bowls and rice bowls were absolutely delicious and my kids love the bubble tea. We can’t wait to come back to try the ramen bowls!

    My boys turned me onto this place! I always love coming here! Love the fact that I can call in my order before I hit the road and it is there waiting for me. I’ve never had a bad dish.

    Island Poke is consistently an amazing poke place ! Awesome bowls with great tasting food and many options. Very excited that this place is right in town!

  • 5/5 Emily C. 3 years ago on Google
    This place was the best surprise! Small and nestled in a line of store fronts of Massapequa's main drag, at first I couldn't find it even though I was looking for it. Super affordable and excellent food with a great little selection of drinks (including cold sake to go!) Get the karaage rice bowl!!!

    I'm giving 1 star because the food sucks and is way to expensive. The service is ok. Restaurant is clean but I'm never going here again because of the horrible tasting food and sky high price that does not match quality

  • 3/5 Daren K. 1 year ago on Google
    Tried it for the first time today. The food was average at best. I had the Hawaiian classic (bland) the Sriracha tuna (Sriracha overpowered the meal) and the vege Roman (bland) None if them were great.

  • 4/5 Tetiana G. 1 year ago on Google
    Definitely would recommend. Island Poke is my go to place for poke bowls, probably ordered 50bowls from them so far. They also have some simple Boba teas that are good. Took one star off because the amount of food in a bowl can vary a lot.
