Poke N Roll

Perky pop beats fill this Glendale poke shop as guests are met with equally upbeat staff. Upon entering this tiny oasis, adhere to a make-your-own poke bowl style, pick out your favorite toppings and have at it. Served in a one-size, large container, these heavy-handed scoopers fill your bowl for a reasonable price. Start off with two servings of salad, white rice or brown rice and a savory dollop of imitation crab, then choose from a myriad of fresh or cooked fish (including wildcards like shrimp tempura, unagi and salmon skin). The glass deli case serves as a droolworthy 3D menu, hosting everything from pickled cucumbers to fried garlic cloves to seaweed salad and more. Top it off with a sauce of your choosing and enjoy your self-curated bowl at the small community table (though considering the tight squeeze, it might be best to just get it to go). Since Poke n Roll isn’t too far from the Americana at Brand and the Glendale Galleria, it’s the perfect place to grab a quick meal after a day of shopping while avoiding the crowds.
