“ We ordered online this time. I was surprised by how many base options this restaurant had! Usually, you'd expect rice or salad, but they also offered nachos and noodles, which was pretty interesting. I went with a half salad and rice base this time, but I'd love to try the other options next time. The prices were reasonable, and I liked that there were so many toppings to choose from! ”
“ My go to place for poke for the consistency of the fish quality and the condiments. Parking is a little challenging, but you'll get a space somehow if you are patient. ”
“ I had a chance to try Go Fish Poke Bar which is kind of like a chipotle but for fresh poke bowls! The ambiance is casual and service is good. For my bowl I got the spicy salmon poke with yam noodles with crab salad. I can say for sure that the fish here is really good and fresh and was well marinated. The yam noodles although a nice healthy options were not my favorite- I think I am definitely a rice girl! Would go back to try more bowls here! ”
“ Go Fish is my favorite poke place! I've DoorDashed from here numerous times (my app says 9 times) lol. Their poke bowls are so good! I always get their yam noodles as my base. These noodles are so yummy that I even called the place to ask where they get their yam noodles from! The fish is always so fresh and tasty too. Their lychee lemonade is also very refreshing. ”
“ Great Poke, great flavors, unfortunate small portions. Overall I enjoyed the Dressed to Impress Poke Bowl and the sauce used was very enjoyable however the amount of fish and seafood included was below my expectations. Pros - Fresh fish and other seafood - The recommended bowls seem well thought out and I would be happy to come back and try the rest of the menu if they start filling the bowls with more rice and toppings Cons - Portion size, there was very little fish and you can see the side walls of an already shallow bowl. There are plenty of other Poke places that I would consider first because of this ”
“ Came to Go Fish around 1:25pm on a Sunday and it was moderately busy. There were two people ahead of us but we ended up waiting longer than you would expect to order because it seemed like the staff were working on online orders. The inside is a little cramped but cute, and there's a self serve water and condiment station with sriracha and soy sauce packets. Regular bowls (3 scoops of fish) are $15 now, and the large (5 scoops of fish) are I think $18. The regular bowl usually ends up being plenty of food, so despite the temptation of getting a larger variety of fish I try to go for the regular bowl most of the time! I like that they offer scallop, so I always get that, and then I opt for getting the plain tuna and salmon to mix in with my own choice of sauces instead of the premixed poke. All in all, a good selection of pretty good quality poke for a decent price! My go to for poke in the area :) ”
“ Go Fish Poke Bar is the gold standard for poke bowls in the South Bay. I've been coming here since they opened in 2016 and they been knocking it out of the park ever since. It's easily a Top 5 go-to meal for me in all of the San Jose area. The fish is fresh, the portions are generous, and I've received nothing but impeccable service from the staff every time I've been. If you are looking for recommendations, you can't go wrong with the Signature Poke Mix which features ahi tuna and they recently added a new Seared Salmon Shoyu Poke Mix which is equally delicious. I always opt to add avocado as I think it adds a wonderful creaminess to the bowl but it's not essential. If you are getting any of the other fish options you get to choose a sauce to dress it in and I highly recommend the Spicy Togarashi Mayo which provides just the right amount of heat without being overpowering. I've tried a number of other poke restaurants in the area and they just can't quite live up to the standard set by here. My only complaint? That Go Fish isn't located closer to my house so I could go even more frequently, though it's probably a blessing for both my wallet and my waist line. ”
