Poke-man - Merrillville

Best boba I've ever had hands down. The Poke bowls are so unique and delicious; it's definitely worth the money. Service is always fast and workers are so polite and friendly. Ive had boba from places outside of Indiana even, but Pokeman still has the best. Ingredients are always very fresh, and I recommend going here with friends.

Been a while since I?ve spent time in Merrillville, so I made it a point to try something out of the ordinary. POKE-MAN is a lovely stop just off of US-30 that has a myriad of different options to create your own dish. Personally, my bowl was comprised of: tofu, tofu skins, sweet onion, jalapeño, red onion, red cabbage, shredded carrots, sweet corn, bell pepper, shredded nori, and green onions. That?s only a small sample size of the massive list of choices, with options as uncommon as snow crab or BBQ Eel. In terms of drink, they have milk bubble teas, fruit teas, and the fruit slushies, to name a few. I had the Strawberry Fruit Slushie, which was absolutely heavenly after a long day on my feet. The consistency of the slush I would attribute as a blend of a smoothie and a slush, to give a sense of the feel. Very nice drink. With easy, healthy options like this when I?m out and about, I can definitely see myself coming back next time I?m out this way.

I was never into poké until I had some from here. I also had my fiancé have some and now we?re craving it over regular sushi, which we never thought would be possible. ? You get a HEFTY amount of food for what, $13-15? When ONE signature sushi roll is that same price?? We?re already planning on going back in a couple of days. Also, my favorite taro drink is from here now.

Stopped for Dinner and to try something new. I appreciate that you get to fill out the menu of what you want. Everything was fresh and flavorful. It was a little pricey for what it was but definitely worth a try. There staff was helpful and very friendly.

Made a random decision to try this while passing through town and I was pleased with my choice! Tarp bubble tea was on point. I got the salmon mango poke bowl and found myself with a very happy palate. Satisfied all the things, sweet, salty, crunchy, etc? I could not eat the whole thing despite not having eaten earlier that day. Would recommend. Service was fine too. No frills and that?s ok!
