Maka Poke - Lake Forest

Went here initially on a whim and were very pleasantly surprised. A lot of poke places in the area seem to smell a bit off or use lower quality ingredients (especially canned small shrimps). This place uses all high quality stuff, is always immaculately cleaned and smells clean. The owner is very specific and straight to the point but you can tell she really cares about making sure everything looks perfect and tries to make every bowl look like a picture. Some people in other reviews say the bowls are empty but it seems there were bites taken before the photos sooooo

They didnt even pit the lid on right on my miso soup and it spilled like bruh

Good poke! lots of options for toppings and fair price. it's clean and delicious.

I like the poke here the best. It's very clean and fresh. If you get it without any sauce like me, it's easy to tell how fresh it is. I went to other poke places around the area and my work, I like the food here better.

Food is very good and place is clean, the issue is the owner. She is uncomfortably rude to her young employees as well as her customers. If I can avoid her and just pickup I consider ordering but I don't want to deal with her at all. She needs an HR consultant to teach her how to train and deal with employees.
