Custom Poki Bowls in Orange County - Pokinometry, Anahiem

If you love poke/poki, you're going to love this restaurant concept. My friend Jen took me to Pokinometry in Downtown Anaheim for the first time the other day. Poki originates from Hawaii and means to "section" or "to slice or cut", hence the cut cubes and slices of seafood. Poki is made from a variety of fish such as Tuna, Salmon, Shrimp, and Octopus; Pokinometry allows you to customize your very own bowl of poki. With an assembly line, the customer selects the size and type of bowl/base (white or brown rice, salad, chips, or wrap), the first layer (crab meat, avocado, cucumber or onion), type of fish, sauce (many levels of spicyness), and the last layer of garnish (masago, green onion, ginger, wasabi, sesame seeds, seaweed).
The server was generous with the masago on my bowl (one scoop was enough for me), but Jen wanted a bit more, or a larger scoop, and they got a little uptight for it; it's just an extra charge, but they made it seem like she couldn't get more masago. Regardless, our bowls tasted delicious. I had albacore tuna over white rice because I wanted to get full, Jen got a salad bowl which tends to not fill you up as fast. I definitely want to try a poki over chips next time!
