Location: United Square, #01-K13 308591, 101 Thomson Rd, Singapore 307591
Poke LULU, located in the United Square Shopping Mall, definitely makes the list as one of the most popular poke bowl restaurants. It’s easy to locate, serves great portions in sizes small, medium and large, and always has fresh ingredients.
Unfortunately, it can get very crowded and sell out out customer favourites like salmon, tuna, and popular toppings, since many get double scoops. Customers love the poke restaurant’s delicate seasoning of the fish, diverse selection of toppings, and fast service.
With fifteen superfood add ons to choose from, you can keep coming back to Poke LULU and get something new every time. Along with big chunks of sashimi, customers usually like adding more unusual toppings, such as the ginger, ikura, kimchi, jalapenos, walnuts, or quail eggs.
For being located in such a busy area, Poke LULU is also priced affordably. The average price is $20.00, but it of course depends on the size and toppings you choose. Visit Poke LULU during their opening hours of 11:30 am to 8:30 pm, but be sure to avoid the lunch and dinner rushes.
