Blue Whale Poke And Grill - San Mateo

I am always satisfied with anything I order. Healthy with flavor! To have this at a mall is awesome, and my goto. I go to just have lunch it's worth it.Food: 5/5

Fish was absolutely old. The tuna was dry and pale in color. Salmon was very slimy. I've eaten at tons of poke places but by far, this has to be the worst place I've tried. Spent $40 on two bowls of i fresh fish. Not worth it at all.

Usually my go to spot when I go to the mall. Sometimes it's a hit or miss with proportions depending on whose serving you. But I like a good clean food when I'm here.

What in the world was I served with my chicken bibimbap? Part of a pot? Part of a pot scrubber? Part of a pan?! Aluminum foil?!?!I bit into metal and definitely left with some lingering tooth pain. Word to the wise...be careful if what you're eating. See photo to take your guess at what it was.

Prices were pretty expensive, but a classic poke bowl (without additional up-sale items like seaweed salad, avocado, etc) is pretty good. The spicy salmon in particular is nice and fresh. Scoops of fish portions are on the stingy side, but with the massive white rice portion they give you under all the toppings, can't say you won't leave there hungry. Service is always very friendly the few times I've gone back. Admittedly, this place and the Mexican place there are the best casual food court options.
