New to Pokerrito? Start Here.
Fresh poke, torched warm bowls, sushi burritos, and more. Here’s what to try first.
Trying Pokerrito for the first time? You’re not alone.
One of the best things about Pokerrito is that there’s more than one way to enjoy it. But that also means first time guests sometimes ask the same question: Where do I start?
If you’re new to Pokerrito, here’s the easiest way to think about the menu. At its core, Pokerrito gives you four main ways to enjoy your meal:
So instead of asking, “What should I order?” start with this question instead: What are you in the mood for?
Want it warm? Start with a Torched Warm Bowl.
If you’re craving something warm, savoury, and comforting, this is the best place to start. Our Torched Warm Bowls combine warm rice, freshly prepared proteins, and bold flavours inspired by Asian cuisine, finished with heat.
They’ve become one of the most popular ways to enjoy Pokerrito, especially when you want something a little more satisfying than a cold lunch. Here is more on how torched poke works.
Good first picks:
Miso Glazed Salmon
Bulgogi
Torched Ahi Tuna
If you’re new and not sure what to choose, these are strong places to start.
Want it fresh? Go with a Classic Poke Bowl.
Fresh poke is where Pokerrito began. If you want something lighter, cleaner, and closer to the traditional poke experience, a Classic Poke Bowl is the move. You’ll get fresh ingredients, signature sauces, and a balance of flavour and texture that makes poke so easy to love.
Great for:
a lighter lunch
fresh, clean flavour
fans of classic poke
If you like your meal bright, fresh, and packed with quality ingredients, this is probably your category. See how Korean style and Japanese style poke differ.
Want it handheld? Try a Sushi Burrito.
Not in the mood for a bowl? Our Sushi Burritos take everything people love about poke and wrap it in nori for a handheld format you can grab and go. It’s fresh, filling, and easy to eat, especially if you want something portable or just want a different experience from the usual bowl.
Best for:
meals on the go
something different
poke in a handheld format
And yes, this part of the menu is also where the Pokerrito name comes from: Poke + Burrito = Pokerrito.
Want it your way? Build Your Own.
If you already know what you like, or you want more control over your meal, Build Your Own is the best option. Choose your base, protein, sides, sauce, and toppings to create something that fits your taste.
This is a great choice if:
you know your favourite ingredients
you want a specific sauce combination
you like customizing your meal
It’s also one of the easiest ways to explore Pokerrito your own way.
Still not sure? Start with these.
If you just want the short answer, here are some easy first picks:
For a warm bowl: Miso Glazed Salmon or Bulgogi
For a fresh bowl: Choose one of our classic poke favourites
For something handheld: Try a Classic Pokerrito
For customization: Go with Build Your Own
You really don’t need to overthink it. The best place to start is simply choosing the format that fits your mood. Want more detail? Read our full guide by craving.
What makes Pokerrito different?
Pokerrito was founded in Vancouver in 2016 and started with fresh poke bowls and sushi burritos. Over time, the menu evolved, and today, Torched Warm Bowls have become a defining part of the Pokerrito experience.
That means you don’t have to choose between fresh and comforting. At Pokerrito, you can have both.
TORCHED. WARM. FRESH.
