" There were some genuine highs and lows during my visit to Poke. First off, the service was prompt and the staff were accommodating. On the flip side, I found the prices to be excessive compared to the small portion sizes. The fish quality was good—but I rather expect more when paying premium prices. While the environment was lively, I felt a bit underwhelmed for what I ended up spending. " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely adore this spot! The sushi is always fresh and the service is reliable. Being able to BYOB makes it all the better. Last time, I was pleasantly surprised by the off-menu options which were delightful. It’s a great casual place for dinner with friends or an intimate date night. Definitely, one of my favorites in the city! " (*Curated Review*)

" Poke is hands down my favorite sushi joint in New York City! Every visit feels like a treat. The freshness of the fish is remarkable. I love their sushimi and rolls, not to mention the vibrant atmosphere that enhances the experience. If you enjoy BYOB places, this one should be at the top of your list. Highly recommend the scallops if they have them! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about this restaurant. On one hand, the freshness of the fish was undeniable. However, the prices felt steep for the portion sizes we received. The service was friendly but not particularly attentive. It's a good spot for a casual night out, but I wouldn't make it my first choice for sushi. Overall, it's decent but could improve! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is a neighborhood favorite for good reason. The combination of authenticity, quality, and BYOB creates a delightful dining experience. I had sushi that rivals some of the best restaurants in the city. The portions might not be huge but the flavor is there! Definitely worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my dining experience at Poke! Tucked away on the Upper East Side, this cash-only place is charming and offers a great BYOB option. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming. Each roll we tried burst with flavor, particularly the unique creations like their off-menu salmon rolls. It’s a spot you'll want to revisit often! " (*Curated Review*)

" I brought a friend here who had never had proper sushi before and I'm glad I did. The freshness was noted immediately, and she loved every bite. The atmosphere was relaxed yet lively. Being BYOB made it easy to enjoy our meal without breaking the bank. We left with smiles on our faces! " (*Curated Review*)
