Oh. Em. Gee. \nOh poke where have you been...I have missed you and I did not even know I needed you in my life. With true lust....I went back again today, two days after my first visit. The only reason that I waited....yesterday was X-mas ;)\n\nI have been thinking for a few days now where in this dessert besides whole foods would have tuna (that was safe to eat raw!) to make spicy tuna salad at home. Then I saw in passing one of the many Hawaiian joints in this town, yelped around...and viola...poke!!!!!! \n\nNarrowing down the options...I landed here, Poke Express. Thankfully I had torn through enough reviews to understand I just needed to go straight to the back of the restaurant as soon as you enter Island Sushi to place your order.\n\nOn both visits the case was filled with what looked to be their complete offering. Of course today a little after 12p the pans were only 1/3rd full since it was the day after being closed for the holiday. Probably 8 different poke (pokes? pokies?) ahi, spicy ahi with masago, spicy ahi combo with avocado and cucumber, salmon, ahi Hawaiian (the very nice counter woman said it was their version of poke without limu), kim chee mussels, 1 or 2 kinds of tako/octopus. All have been named in previous reviews plus seaweed salad, edamame, et cetera. \n\nBoth visits I walked away with a 1/2 pound of each spicy ahi and Hawaiian. Totals each time was $16 and change for a smidge over a pound of ahi. Maybe I could find tuna at the grocery fish counter for the same cost, but why? This was so so good, run do not pass go. But maybe than again you shouldn't go...leave more for me.
