Me and boyfriend each got a regular size bowl after arriving late to our hotel. We love how late they open until and the poke is light and veggie packed, which we really needed after a long day of driving and eating chips. The woman making our poke is friendly and super patient with us while we made our choices. The portion size is decent, and we thought the price is very reasonable too. The only thing is, neither of us really loved the traditional poke sauce. We might go back and try some other sauces.
I come here consistently for lunch since my place of work is close by. I love them so much that sometimes I’ll even get the bigger bowl for dinner! It is very fast, consistently fresh tuna, and costs as much as a McDonalds meal! And so much healthier for you. I love this place thanks for always providing great product and service! 🫶🏻
Not very happy!It was the new location:/. We’ve been loyal customers since Covid. And always bring back extra poke bowls coming home. There are usually 6-8 total. Due the math. The employee was not happy just because we wanted chips separately. Once again we are traveling. And our kids didn’t make the trip. Very disappointed in the poke box. I remember the man and woman plus there kids at the original poke box. Definitely going to find a new tradition. Be happy everyone and remember you are costing the employer money when you aren’t happy:(
Although the food tasted good and the service was good, the main seafood toppings were quite small and the side toppings were limited, therefore my bowl primarily consisted of about 75% rice which I think is a scam when you pay about $15 for a large bowl, you want there to be more seafood. So to sum it up, if you want to pay to eat cooked rice as your main dish then this place is fine. The atmosphere was a bit dry which led me to believe than this establishment is not very popular amongst tourists and locals.
Super friendly super delicious place that I wish we had where I live. We loved it so much we’ve gotten lunch here twice this week. An absolute favorite!
Food was amazing and the service was great. The place was clean, fast and efficient. The reason you're getting one star though? Because of your sign on the door that says "restroom is for customers only." That's stingy and infuriating and I don't care to hear apology or explanation whatsoever. You're just going to have to take the hit on this one because your rating deserves to be taken down a notch in a family oriented beach town. Acting like you're down town in Nola with trashy clientele riff Raff to be kept out in bougie Nags Head is ridiculous. Let the people pee!
I am local & eat here at least once a week.Food is incredible, and so fresh. Store is always clean and neat. I HIGHLY recommend it especially if you eat OMAD! Great consistent portions. The staff and service is AMAZING and so fast!!! Also shout out to the staff they make me feel like a movie star. (No idea how they remember my order when there are so many possible combinations!!!!Thinking about stopping by for the 3rd time this week.... My mouth is watering just thinking about it!!!!!! 🤤As a local I would love to see some sort of loyalty program to reward frequent flyers like me.Would also love if there is a reusable bowl program. If I could I would just eat out of one of their silver bowls and bring it back for them to wash to save them some money and to save some plastic if I could. I know that can be tricky with certain health codes and stuff Just thinking outloud.Their containers are awesome and I reuse them for my own leftovers or for meal prepping tho!!Thank you to your staff for being amazing!!!!!!!!Also... I have decided i'm coming for dinner.

This is the best poke place I have ever tried in my life. I will drive out of my way just to go here instead of somewhere closer. I have eat at PokeBox almost every week this whole summer. I love everything about it, best food I ever have had. I crave it daily.
Tim and Olga were amazing at their job Tim also does an amazing job at keeping that place spotless every time I go in there he’s always cleaning something LOVE THE STANDARDS !!!! and I feel safe knowing I’m eating at a clean establishment
I love how clean the establishment is. I also love how efficient the system is so we can quickly get our food. The folks behind the counter are kind and helpful and careful for those with food allergies.
Haven’t had poke in a while! This place reminded me of what I’ve been missing since the last time I had it. We came here after a nice beach day and might I say we all inhaled it. I regret not getting the Yum Yum sauce ;( Maybe there will be a next time if I end up in the OBX some time soon 🙂
Great breakfast spot! I got the chicken and waffles and it was HUGE. Our server was very friendly and many other servers stopped by our table to see if we needed a warm up on our coffee.
Definitely expensive but everything was VERY FRESH and delicious. It was worth every penny. The workers were nice and had great custom service being it my first time here. Large selection to pick from. Im coming back here every year I come visit. And I highly recommend you come eat here.
Food is fresh and delicious, and the servings are very large for a great price. The employees are extremely friendly and the online ordering process makes it super easy to order online with quick pickup.
The process of ordering was awkward. The space is crowded, it is difficult to hear the staff and we felt rushed when ordering. Additionally, portion sizes were small. However, the food was fresh and delicious.A suggestion to improve the experience would be to have a form customers could fill out with their desired toppings/mix-ins.
Awesome flavors, reasonable prices, quick, and friendly staff. It's not easy to find vegan options for dining in the OBX so it was a relief to find this. Vegan steak is an interesting option, being able to get that with tofu worked well.
Excellent food quality and taste. The staff is very nice. I am a returning customer.The wasabi is no joke here. I should have done a regular bowl instead of large. A large bowl held my appetite from lunch to beyond dinner. There are bottled drinks as well as a drink fountain. Delicious!
A great alternative to sushi for a great price. A $12 regular bowl fills you up well. So many options! I enjoyed chicken and scallops; my kids liked their raw tuna and salmon. Everything was fresh. With spring greens for a base rather than rice, you can get a solid low-carb, high-protein meal here. We like to explore different OBX restaurants each day, but we came back to PokeBox because it was so good, priced right for a family, and there are so many combos to try.The staff was pleasant and there is a chalk wall for kids to sign or make art. Very clean store front.
Coming from Southern California, its really hard to find quality poke bowls in the area but i love coming here. This place is fresh, delicious and i highly recommend!! Lots of different toppings and sauces to choose from as well.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this place. I love everything about it. You must go. I would go ever day if i could.I'm so excited to hear that they may be opening a second location. Now, if they would just come to Greensboro, I would be a very happy girl.
Healthy,tasty and good value! The waiter is really friendly and patient. A regular bowl includes two proteins, four veggies and four toppings. I am definitely going back again during my stay in Nags Head. My only complaint is that the white rice does not seem to be the sushi rice I am used to.
We stumbled upon Poke Box while out for a bike ride. The displayed menu looked appetizing so we decided to give it a try. The bowl we ordered was delicious. It was a nice size portion filled with fresh veggies and sides. The spicy Aioli was so flavorful.Poke Box is spotless and the service was excellent. So happy this place exist and we look forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!
Place is good. Pretty generous portions and all the usual mix ins and toppings. The cool thing is that they kind of mix it for you in a bowl so you don't have to do it yourself in your little take out container. Prices are also really competitive which is shocking in a beach town.
Came here for the first time tonight with my boyfriend and I had a Regular poke box with shrimp and spicy tuna and a base of a mix of salad and brown rice, toppings and sauces are amazing. We got a 3rd poke box togo , it was so good. I'll come back for sure, next time I'm in the OBX. Highly recommend it ????????.
This is my first time in this part of the country and I already absolutely love this restaurant. Great service, great food, clean restaurant. All amazing. I don’t recommend any specific choices because all are great!
