  I would definitely recommend this spot. We got there just before the craze, the service was fast and the food was fresh!
  
  I'm always concerns about portion size when it comes to bowls so I was very please to see a good amount of food per serving.
  
  Happy full belly!

  Stopped in w my son for a quick bite. Turned out to be a REALLY tasty one too!
  
  They had an amazing selection starting with brown or white rice, salad, or a sushi burrito followed with a huge assortment of proteins , vegetables, and toppings.
  
  I tried the spicy tuna and spicy salmon, both super fresh and not overpowering. Added every topping except raw onion. THEN I let them take it uptown with wasabi mayo and spicy mayo, ginger, crunchies, and scallions.
  
  Washed it down with a crafted Thai Tea. The bowl easily makes 2 meals or fills you to the brim.
  
  The restaurant isn't fancy but the food is worth the stop. They even sell boba tho I couldn't fit one in :).
  
  Definitely on my "I need a quick flavor boost lunch" list!

  Pretty good poke place. I was a little thrown off because they didn't mix in the sauce with the fish and toppings as other places do, but it was still pretty good. Their house sauce is actually quite spicy! I was pleasantly surprised. They did have a few interesting toppings, but it was nice to try something different in my bowl. I got salmon and tamago as my proteins, but I would've been happy with just salmon.

  Why 4 stars? Because this is a solid option for poke in Pinellas Park.

  I learned about Poke Island from Yelp's Top 50 in Tampa Bay list that came out a few months ago. Anytime I see a business with a cumulative 5-star rating, I try to make it a high priority to visit. So when I was headed from St. Pete back to Tampa, I made a slide detour over to Pinellas Park.
  
  Poke Island is like most poke places and centers around the concept of building your own bowl - choosing a base, protein, veggies, toppings and sauce. I concocted a creation of all the random things I liked and figured I'd add a taro/coconut boba to the mix.
  
  The poke bowl was quite tasty. It was all quite compact in the bowl, which did make it a bit tough to fish around for various ingredients, but that was my only issue. Otherwise, I really enjoyed it! And the boba was also pretty great, I just wish the consistency was a tad thicker.
  
  If I lived nearby, this would definitely be a place I'd be visiting regularly, but since I'm about 20 miles away, I'll just have to cross my fingers that we get one of these concepts in Carrollwood one day.
