Pokerrito
Located at 350 W 8th Ave in the vibrant city of Vancouver, Pokerrito serves as a delightful Asian fusion eatery that masterfully marries the traditional flavors of sushi with a contemporary twist. This hidden gem is the go-to spot for both local food lovers and adventurous palates alike, offering a unique dining experience that is as eye-catching as it is flavorful.
At Pokerrito, you have the power to create your culinary masterpiece. Their Build Your Own (B.Y.O) Bowl comes in both regular and large sizes, allowing you to indulge in an array of bases, proteins, and toppings. Picture this: white rice as your cozy base, topped with your choice of three proteins — perhaps spicy BBQ pork or succulent bulgogi — dressed in a house-made sauce that dances on your palate. The toppings alone, which range from crisp veggies to crunchy tempura, provide an explosion of taste and texture that’s irresistibly satisfying. And for those seeking a portable option, the B.Y.O Pokerrito—wrapped in a flavorful seaweed shell—offers all the charm of sushi in burrito form for just CA$15.95.
The restaurant boasts a relaxed, inviting atmosphere, perfect for both a casual lunch break or a cozy dinner with friends. Diners rave about the spacious layout and delightful patio—ideal for enjoying a meal in the fresh air. Reviews praise the friendly staff, particularly highlighting Santiago for his attentive service, ensuring that every visit feels personal and welcoming.
As a true Asian fusion spot, you can’t miss trying their signature Bul-Dog™ offerings. Each bite of the Spicy Pork BulDog™ merges spice and sweetness, complemented perfectly by the crunch of tempura. For CA$7.95, this dish is a flavor bomb that will leave your taste buds wanting more. If you're in the mood for seafood, don’t overlook the I Sea Food summer special — a vibrant bowl featuring tunas, salmon, scallops, and shrimp that truly celebrates the freshness of the ocean.
While some reviews have mentioned a desire for bolder flavor profiles, many patrons have found their experiences at Pokerrito to be overwhelmingly positive. With fresh ingredients, substantial portions, and a menu that caters to a variety of tastes, there’s a little something for everyone here. It’s easy to see why guests return time and again, drawn in by the delicious, healthy options and a friendly ambiance.
So whether you're building your dream bowl or grabbing a quick Bul-Dog™, make your way to Pokerrito. It’s more than just a meal; it’s a culinary adventure that leaves you satisfied and eager to plan your next visit!
