Hula Poke - Vancouver, British Columbia

This place has some great vegetarian options. Would recommend sweet potato over tofu. Honestly if the tofu could be fried to be made crispy it would do a lot for that option. Additionally replacing the tofu with smoked tofu would make the option better too.

Delicious poke! This place is so underrated I don’t understand why there aren’t more stars. Their flavors are so tasty and the girl who served me was super sweet. Will definitely be back!

Very cute, tiny shop. However definitely not for extended periods of eating. Noted this is reasonable considering the location and type of food offered is more suitable for quick lunch walk thrus. Service is friendly and overall very clean. Food was delicious! Did not overload me on rice. However the grain ... options like kale noodles or coconut rice was a very appreciated offering. Lots of greens, and decent amount of the salmon. However feels like we could have a tiny bit more variety in the toppings. Seems like only kale, micros, and rice in my bowl. The lava coffee is delicious. Much better than the coffee I am currently sipping while typing this up 😁 Read more

So, a couple of things about this place that I really liked, which will bring me back for more. Here it is: I like poke. I like healthy food and I love seafood, but with a lot of poke places with their additional charges, economic portions and high base prices....you feel ... that you end up paying more than a steakhouse. I'll give you an example. Just here in this beautiful city I've been to several poke places where I chose to share a poke bowl because I didn't want to pay 50 bucks for kale, bits of raw fish and ginger sauce. This usually has happened because of high base prices and stingy portion sizes, so you're left with "adding extra protein" on top of your base servings.....creating for yourself $$$$$$. With this place it was different and I was pleasantly surprised. I'll tell you how: First of, the portion sizes are exactly what you're paying for....no more, no less, which means their base prices is actually reasonable. Also, if you want more protein the additional charge is only $3, which is much cheaper than other places. I've seen them go as high as $6 for extra protein, which is silly because they're not giving you enough to begin with based on their prices that you're already paying for. So, even though I loved my salmon, I didn't have to get extra because what the bowl had was perfectly enough. For the first time in a poke place I felt that I wasn't being ripped off and that felt really nice. The food (Bowl with Salmon/Kale/Rice) was fresh, tasty, flavour full and creative. I loved their outdoor seating area right in the heart of beautiful Yaletown and the service was good. It was a nice, light, healthy and tasty lunch...exactly what I was looking for! They'll see me again. Read more

Absolutely delicious!!! 100 % recommended. I had the TIKI Poke, it's a bit spicy without being too much. The cassava chips are a total HIT!! Big portion for an affordable price. Nice environment and super friendly staff. If you are in Yaletown area and want something healthy, delicious and affordable ... this is the place. Coming back for sure. :) Read more
