The Best Poke Bowl in Toronto

The best poke bowl in Toronto has mastered the Hawaiian raw fish dish that’s taken the healthy eating world by storm. Served on beds of rice with a whole slew of fun veggies like edamame and wakame, these are bowls are guaranteed to get you fuelled for the day. 

Here are the best poke bowls in Toronto.

4 - Poke Guys

Head to multiple locations of this restaurant for satisfying mixes of rice and seafood. Their Angry Shrimp bowl is particularly popular, with spicy shrimp, pineapples, sesame seeds and masago.
5 - Lawai'a Poke

This takeout spot on King West is a popular lunchtime destination for chopped Hawaiian fish atop rice, or if you prefer, zucchini noodles. These guys are a great option even if you’re looking for a vegan or gluten-free meal.
6 - Poke Box

Get a custom poke box at this miniscule shop in the Financial District. Their bases are a bit more extensive than others (you can get sushi rice, grain blend, spring mix or zucchini noodles) which is good if you’re getting bored of the same old order.
8 - Hoki Poke

Just steps from Yonge and Wellesley is this surprisingly cozy spot to dine on poke bowls. They have ten different signature bowls for you to choose from, or you can make your own with ahi tuna, salmon, grilled chicken, or shrimp.
10 - Calii Love

This poke staple with multiple locations is sort of a health hub-meets-celebrity hotspot. Either way, they’re one of the downtown favourites for bowls named Hopeful and Confident, and it’s fun to hear the servers yell out how you’re “feeling”.
3 - North Poke

This poke shack with locations in Kensington Market and Saks Food Hall cuts, mixes, and marinated all their own fish in house. Owned by the same people behind Sukoshi Mart, the shop offers meals like the Aloha bowl, which comes with butterfish and onion marinade.
7 - Umami Poke

Flavours get a boost from some Korean- and Middle Eastern-inspired flavours at this Yonge and St. Clair restaurant. It’s all about build your own bowls here, with the option of quinoa to go with tahini sauce or Korean chili garlic.
9 - Ono Poke Bar

More like ‘oh yes’ at this poke bar in Liberty Village. It’’s not cheap here, but you probably won’t find another spot serving up bowls with decadent toppings like torched salmon, steak with torched cheese, or eel with furikake.
11 - Poke Eats

Tucked away inside Emerald Park plaza near Yonge and Sheppard is this small bar serving up BYOBs. Head downstairs for signatures that have names like It’s Lit, which uses black sushi rice, and Kale Machine, which subs out rice for kale instead.
