Pokiritto Is Awesome

A few weeks ago a group of us went to Dim Sum lunch at Jasmine, on Convoy.  Right across the street is a shopping center that houses, among other excellent restaurants, Pokiritto.  Melanie mentioned to me how much she loves poke, so we made a date to try it.  I was not disappointed.

Think sushi in a burrito.  They offer about six different sushi burritos.  The burrito is started with a seaweed wrapper.  On to that is spread a scoop of crab mixture.  From there on, the ingredients vary depending on what burrito you order.  I order Maui Sands.  It had two large scoops of ahi tuna, lotus chips, cilantro, broccoli, a small amount of an Asian slaw mix, and a nice mild sauce.  You can get it spicy if you want.  Melanie ordered the classic burrito, which had a few different vegetables and different fish, maybe a combo of salmon and ahi.  Both were delicious, in fact too big for  me to finish.

Pokiritto also offers poke bowls, both small and large, and yakitori.  The place was packed, and if you eat there you'll know why.  Good value, fresh ingredients, and friendly help.  Pokiritto also has another location in Little Italy.  If you're in the Convoy area, be sure and give it a try.
