Review Hooked On Poke - Bondi

Yummy fresh food and good variety. Prices are reasonable and coffee is good but a little weak. We come here just for the bagels and although they are not as good as the real deal New York bagels, these are pretty good. Would love if they made the everything bagel type. This place gets busy on the weekend so expect a bit of a wait.

Brunch with friends Everyone loved their food Service good, delivery a bit slow, but Everyone suffering with staff shortages Only gripe was a juice that came in bottle :-(

Been coming to this restaurant multiple times. Good food. Staffs were mostly nice except one waitress. We had good experience there most of the times except yesterday when we asked to change table due to a person's smelly breath from the adjacent table. It smelled like toilet and we couldn't stand it at all. Of course we didn't want to be rude and therefore walked to the waitress and spoke softly. To our surprise the waitress responded in a hostile manner and asked why we wanted to move. She sounded like we were asking an unreasonable request and her face was all hostile. We ended up moved to another table but that dining experience was a unpleasant one. Hospitality is not just about making nice food. Customer service is a big part of it. Kitchen staffs are paid to make good and safe food. Floor staffs are paid to serve customers. If someone wasn't happy working there or didn't want to do the job she'd been paid for, then why bother even being there and being employed in this industry.

Just had a very tasty lunch with my partner. Raw tuna salad was perfectly spicy, light and fresh. Service was killer! Great job Lox team, enjoy a well earned family meal.

Took my dad here for lunch, although it was a wait due to the time being lunch during a public holiday- I have to say its got one of the best Tuna steak sandwiches I've ever had! Staff were super friendly and food came out quickly! Would reccomend if you are in Bondi!

Ooft. Definitely a new favourite for us. We have been to a lot of places in our time and this is now one of the best. I can’t say anything more than to recommend giving it a go. Some of the best bagels I have had in Australia. Finally a place to rival NYC itself.

Great place for brunch. I love their speciality lattes. This place gets busy so expect a wait if you go at a popular time. The service is normally good and the food is tasty. Definitely worth checking out.

It is quite OK for breakfast. Coffee was really tasty, breakfast roll was quite fine, though I didn’t expect to see that type of bread on it, but it was not too bad. Service was helpful and quick and the place was not packed in the morning which is so hard to see in Bondi

*Jasmine reviews*<br/><br/> It was a bit dark due to lack of lighting. Ordered a Salmon bowl and a 'build your own' bowl + a side of 'Japanese' style fried chicken which is the special for that night.<br/><br/>The Poke bowls: they did not taste very much - can only taste the vinegar from the pickled vegetable. The salmon did not taste very much either. It was a filling bowl but maybe a bit pricy ($15) for the portion given. I asked for tobiko as one of the topping on my build your own bowl but I can hardly see any, as I got towards the end there is a pool of spicy soy sauce at the bottom, making it quite difficult to finish the last bit of the rice. <br/><br/>'Japanese' style fried chicken: Served with Mayonaise and pickled Daikon. It was the darkest fried chicken I have ever seen in my life, as though they have forgotten about them in the deepfryer. If I was the owner, I would not serve that to my customers, . It was also very very salty, we could not finish the plate.

Very tasty, lots of flavour and very fresh. Friendly helpful service. I built my own poke bowl and the waitress gave great advice and allowed us to taste the different dressings. Definitely recommend <br/>

I've wanted to try poké for a while and I decided to try some last night in Bondi. This place has just opened and the staff did seem a little stressed when making the orders but I'm sure they'll get the hang of it. <br/><br/>I liked that there were other options other than rice as the carb so I picked buckwheat noodles. I had the choose it yourself tuna poké. I had avocado 🥑, edamame, pickled daikon and roasted miso cauliflower. The toppings I picked were the tobiko and wasabi peas. The sauce I picked was roasted sesame. The poké was amazing, all the flavours I picked went well together. The best part was the cauliflower, it was roasted to perfection and flavoursome. It was the best cauliflower I've ever had. The tuna was nice and fresh. The other ingredients were good as well but the wasabi peas were crushed up and I couldn't taste the wasabi. <br/><br/>The owner came and talked to us and he told us that they are going to sell beef poké next week, I think he said rare beef, sadly I won't be in Bondi to try it. Everyone here was very nice. I would come back here if I was staying in Bondi again. I can't wait to try poké in Melbourne.
