Big Fish Little Fish Recruitment Solutions

I was looking for a poke restaurant nearby and found Big Fish.  After reading the reviews about the customer service, I took a deep breath and hoped for the best.  During the lunch rush at Century City mall, I expected the  line to be long but it wasn't. The menu was very easy to read, although an additional $2.50 for an extra scoop of protein is a little much. I was greeted with a smile from the first employee, and the smiles followed from all those who helped me. Maybe I went on a day when everyone was in a good mood, let's hope the customer service stays that way. As far as the food, the portions given to me we're average. The taste all together was typical poke bowl no complaints. More...

My favorite poke place! They are very generous with their portions and they have a nice variety of toppings.I usually get their yellowtail on a bed of brown rice with quinoa and edamame, corn, cucumber, masago, krab, seaweed, sunflower seeds, lotus root, and furikake. I usually get either the spicy mayo or house special sauce but today I saw they have a new mango sauce! Definitely going to try that next time.Price is also very affordable compared to other poke places in the area! If I'm not very hungry I can split a large portion into two meals :) More...

Very good poke bowl! I got a mix of salmon, spicy tuna and crab with all the fixings! White rice, edamame, seaweed, ginger, green onion, white onion, spicy mayo and ponzu, crunchy onion and garlic. They have so many different options to put in your bowl! I can't wait to try all the other good items. Very fresh and delicious! Will definitely come back again!!! More...

Super solid poke place! Although full disclosure, I try to eat less fish/meat so I got crab and tofu as the two scoops of protein for my Big Fish bowl. (Big Fish is the larger size with 2 scoops of protein and Little Fish is the smaller size with 1 scoop). The crab is a little salty for my taste but really good when mixed with the unseasoned vegetable mixins. The kale base is sooo well seasoned, I would have that just by itself!Love the crunchy topping options they have (almonds, sunflower seeds, seaweed, crispy onion, macadamia nuts are some of the options). The macadamia nuts aren't usual imo in poke spots and is so good on poke! Got the signature and wasabi cream as my sauces - the wasabi sauce was pretty mild so might not go for that again. More...

AMAZING poke bowls. One of the freshest tasting poke bowls I've EVER had. Can't get enough

I always get their name mixed up with the Dr. Seuss book "One Fish Two FIsh", but besides that, I actually really enjoy "Big Fish Little Fish". I've been coming here whenever I'm in a pickle during lunchtime and it has always proven solid. The lines move fast so no worries if you see alot of people waiting. I usually get the little fish with half kale and half brown rice. I tried their shrimp, octopus, and spicy tuna- all were fresh and tasty. In addition, I love how they are so generous with all the veggies and topping add-ons. They definitely don't skimp out here.I usually get the sweet onion and ponzu sauce and call it a day, but I did hear from my coworkers that they like to add alot of sauce so be careful of that. All in all, I like how they provide generous and tasty portions. I would definitely come back whenever I crave poke. More...

The flavors are all there. The service is fast. The portions are good. My only complaint is the crab mix is considered a protein. I think it should automatically come with the bowl like a lot of other places. However I would still come back because it's really good. Spicy sriracha and creamy teriyaki is the way to go! More...

Quick place to get a nice bite.I was at Yelp HQ for work and wanted to get poke for lunch. I Yelped poke places that were around 6 blocks that had over a 4 star rating and was open for lunch. Being in SF I honestly thought I'd have a couple selections, but this was it! It is a little hidden, it isn't right off of Spear, but in a plaza. That being said, as long as you know the address, it isn't hard to find. The line seemed a little long, but since it is like Chipotle, where you order down the line, it went pretty quick. I went with a big bowl and started piling on everything. I got a kale/brown rice base, added salmon, spicy salmon, tuna, and added an extra protein of octopus (which is a cool option), went crazy on the toppings with edamame, masago, avocado (an extra charge), pineapple, seaweed salad, krab salad, cilantro, furikake, and fried onion. I asked which sauce was the most popular, it was the ponzu sauce. My total was a little under $19, but it's because I added an extra protein and avocado. You can totally build an awesome bowl without any of those extras.Since there is a long line, you really don't have time to stop and ask to taste the sauces. I found my bowl to be a little spicier than I normally like, I think it was because of the spicy salmon. Overall, the fish was big and fresh, and I felt healthy and satisfied after eating it. Do I think this is the best place ever? No, but it is definitely a solid choice for a fast, healthy, meal.Overall, I would definitely recommend it, but I want to try all the other highly rated options in SF before coming back. It's a great place to get lunch, but not the type of place to seek out if you are from out of town. More...

I was heading over to my go-to safe choice of Panda Express when my wife convinced me to try something new. So, I reluctantly chose to try out this place, BFLF. I am so glad I did!!!  First of all, I'm terrible at making choices and putting food together at places like this. But, the easy steps posted on the wall was a big help. A bigger help was Sabrina. She was so nice and took her time to give me descriptions of everything I asked about. I asked her what she would suggest and with her help we put together an amazing bowl. She even gave me a sample of the crispy onion and garlic so I could decide which would be better in my bowl. She had me mixing sauces and crunch, etc. I couldn't have come up with a masterpiece of a bowl like this myself. My wife went with the standard pre-set bowl and wished she would've made a bowl like mine. Her bowl was really good, but mine was excellent.  Do yourself a favor and let the employees guide you through the process. Sabrina and Jasmine were super sweet and smiled the whole time they were serving us. More...

On the hunt for a healthy lunch, I came across Big Fish Little Fish in the food court. The line was long but moved quickly. I was always weary of poke bowls because big chunks of raw fish aren't my thing, but they had spicy tuna! Yes, sold!I ordered the small fish bowl, loaded with half kale and half rice and quinoa, topped with fish, 2 sauces, a selection of fresh veggies and the fried onions to top it off! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. The menu was easy enough to follow but if you're in the mood for a pre-fixe bowl they have those combinations also. Kind of pricy for such a small bowl at $11 but it was good, I'd come here again if I was in the area. More...

Girls, I am a sucker for a poke bowl. Delicious AND nutritious. I love that they have kale as a base option, so I did half kale and half white rice. I topped that off with salmon, seaweed salad, cucumber, all the onions, masago, the spicy sauce and the ponzu and added some crispy garlic and macadamia nuts. SO BOMB. We love healthy mall food. The only not bomb thing was how unfriendly the staff was. When they were ringing me up, they were just talking to each other like I wasn't even there. I mean, at least try? Whatever, at least the poke was good! More...

5 Stars for a build-your-own poke bowl spot whose line was quick and food was fresh.It may take some effort to find it (we got turned around and had to ask someone), but you'll know you're close when you see the line. It was out the door when we arrived but had read enough reviews to know it would be quick. From there, you walk down the line to build your own bowl.I picked my combo, quickly paid, and snagged a table inside. There are more communal picnic tables outside, but it want so much my scene.Overall, great lunch spot. More...

My office recently relocated to FiDi area from the Mission so I've been looking for some new lunch spots. I randomly walked passed this place when I was cutting through the Rincon Center during lunchtime. Poke will forever be a favorite lunch option for me so I was really excited to see this spot. I decided to take a gamble and joined in the line around 12. Luckily line was pretty speedy and I was done in ~10 minutes. I opted for the little fish bowl with spicy ahi tuna and regular salmon, almost all the veggie toppings, crab, and ponzu sauce. Fish tasted fresh. I also saw octopus and different flavored salmon/tuna which was a unique choice. I lean towards white rice for poke bowls but also saw they had brown rice and salad for a more healthy option. The portion was a pretty good size for the price (~$13 after tax). I figure for fresh fish in FiDi, this was a reasonable price. I'll keep this in my lunch rotation. More...

A large assortment of toppings and friendly staff. The fish was fresh and with the right sauces and condiments, you really feel like you're sitting on a beach in Hawaii rather than a crowded mall with screaming kids running around. They deliver via Postmates, Grubhub, Doordash and Ubereats too so if you don't feel like fighting the parking of the mall here, you can get fresh poke delivered to you. The price is fair when you consider the price of fish. I recommend Jalapenos as a topping if you want to add a little kick to your poke bowl. The large bowl is more than enough for an average size man as you get a lot of vegetables and fish for the large order.Not much of a line when I came which is always nice so I was in and out really quick. Would definitely eat here again if I was at the mall and looking for a fresh and healthy alternative. More...

They have a lot of toppings and sauce choices. They had "tuna" but I didn't know what kind. It didn't look like ahi tuna because it was more pink then a vibrant pink and it felt softer than ahi. Not sure if they were just out or if this is all they usually had. The spicy tuna tasted good though and it was just mildly spicy. They have plenty of seating outside but no shade. If it's hot and you want to sit inside hope you like communal seating because you might have to sit really close to someone you don't know, oh and no bathrooms . More...

I am not sure why only two stars. This little gem by far is one of the best poke bowls I have had. I am usually so indecisive when I get to Century City. When I am in the mood for sushish... taste I get the poke bowl. The large is big enough for two people. They are gracious with their fish portions and there is a big selection of toppings and sauces. The base is garlic kale/brown rice/ white rice or greens. You can get them mix or separate. . I just wish they would season the kale a little more crisp other than that I highly recommend and I am super picky about eating raw fish out. Shucks I forget to take a picture, next poke order I will definitely post it. More...

So glad we tried this gem located in the dining terrace (aka fancy food court in Century City mall). Poke bowl options are small & large with two scoops of protein as the default and a selection of bases including white rice, brown rice, kale, spring salad mix.  Default bowl also includes five toppings and two crunchies. I got a large bowl with white rice, salmon, and spicy tuna. It was a really delicious bowl actually. Sauces (I think I got spicy aioli and shoyu) were in just the right amount. Fish was fresh and even though there's only two scoops, felt like enough especially since I also got two scoops of kani with the bowl. We were most impressed with the quality to price ratio here. The large bowl was HUGE (more than I could finish despite skipping breakfast) and fully loaded with toppings for about $14 out the door. I think a small is about $2-3 less. Definitely plan on coming back to get my poke fill! More...

Ok!! Very few 5 Stars here. Why? Well the food is incredible. The portions are good. Love the choices. When I go to AMC and see a move I always eat here when I decide to get dinner. So why am I not giving them 5 Stars?  Because the service is slow. The employees don't seem happy. When you pay they don't suggest a drink and never say thank you for buying from them. But the food is great and is my favorite restaurant in the mall. So ignore the attitudes, slow service and lack of caring.

With the plethora of poke restaurants that have abounded in recent years, making poke creative and interesting has become increasingly difficult.  Big Fish Little Fish creates its own space in this crowded field of contenders.  BFLF is located immediately adjacent to the Regal Edwards Cinema in Aliso Creek Town Center offering a more pleasant and less expensive alternative to watching the latest Hollywood disaster for mindless imbeciles next door.We ordered one of the "Signature Pokerito" entrees called the "Kilauea" ($11.95).  It comes with spicy tuna, avocado, cucumber, surimi crab, purple cabbage, crispy onion, hot Cheeto flakes, bamboo rice, sriracha aioli sauce.We also ordered the large "Fantastic Three" poke bowl ($12.95) with tuna, salmon, octopus, cucumber, sweet onion, green seaweed mix, edamame, pickled ginger, lotus root chips, furikake (seaweed flakes), and sweet onion sauce.Everything was made fresh to our order of good quality ingredients.  Their "Pokerito" is an interesting twist on poke served burrito-style.  We found the prices reasonable given the portions and the amount of various poke provided.  Décor is modern with natural light streaming in via exterior glass walls.  Inside and outside seating is available.

Quick, healthy and tasty seafood!This location of Big Fish Little Fish is in the courtyard of Rincon Center, very close to where I work. For over a year I'd been telling myself I should try them for lunch, but kept missing the window just before the line gets long. Finally a friend of mine pushed me to stand in line with him.I went with the "Create Your Own Bowl" option that at first glance was a bit confusing, but once you go through it once it is easy to do.

I felt compelled the write this review because 2.5 stars for Big Fish Little Fish is an affront to poke-lovers everywhere. I eat my fair share of poke and BFLF is definitely in the upper echelon of restaurants in this sphere, although it is not the absolute best. First, the pricing is solid. I get a large bowl with an extra scoop of protein and it still comes out to less than $18. Second, the fish itself is good quality and they definitely load up the scooper by pressing the fish into the scooper via the side of the container instead of just going at the pile of fish and letting the chips fall where they may. This is an important distinction in the world of order-at-the-counter poke and makes your dollar go further. Third, the only toppings deemed "premium" are avocado and mango. This means that imitation crab and seaweed salad are standard and this is huge because not only is BFLF ahead of its competition here, but their imitation crab and seaweed salad taste great. Lastly, I was pleasantly surprised at quickly they get through the line even at the height of the lunch rush at Westfield Century City. If you're a poke fan and looking for a solid lunch spot, look no further! More...

Located inside a little plaza in SOMA, this place is very easy to miss from the street if you are not familiar with this location. Fortunately, I was with a coworker who had been here before so he was able to take the lead. There's no menu available inside upon entering, just a line and a cashier, which makes things a bit confusing initially. You start off by choosing either a small or big bowl, type of rice, and then move down the line choosing your protein(s), toppings, and sauce. The workers here are friendly, and pretty efficient in their jobs. I did a small bowl, which came out to $12.97 after tax. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, and pretty clean overall. Very basic, bare-bone décor. Poke was decent, however the portion size was quite large even for a small. Overall, not a bad deal for poke in the SOMA area. More...
