This place is awesome! Today they had fresh bluefin which just came in from Oceanside. 5 stars on fish quality , sauces, and toppings. All the ingredients we're fresh in appearance and taste.The dining area and kitchen were very clean also which speaks loud to me when dealing with fresh fish. Keep it up!read more

I love this new Grubby’s establishment! The food is excellent and service is on point. I have tried a little of everything. Ahi, raw salmon, house smoked salmon, house smoked shrimp, octopus (that is seared upon order), and even the tofu is delicious. Very good quality of fish. If you are familiar with Señor Grubbys in Carlsbad Village, Grubbys Poke took the spices and chiles from the Diabla salsa and made a delicious infused oil for their poke bowls. If you like a little kick, I highly recommend it. I order my poke bowls on top of spring greens and brown rice. There were very good choices of toppings. I am impressed. Beer and sake too. Try it!!! It’s worth it and it’s directly at the entrance to the mall by Victoria’s Secret so it’s easy to find. Will def go back for more.read more

Came in to check it out a few days ago. Absolutely awesome Poke spot! The worker making my poke bowl was very friendly and knowledgeable. The food was amazing and very fresh! Great environment and location.What really sold me on this new spot is the Bluefin. Bluefin tuna is hard to find and usually expensive. Not only can they put it in your bowl, you can buy it by the pound!read more

Grubby’s Poke & Fish is legit! A much needed addition to the Carlsbad mall. This has been on my weeekly rotation since they’ve opened. The fish is fresh and the ingredients are high quality. Def recommend the Diabla oil, if you are looking to kick it up a notch spice wise. Also, they have a pretty dope selection of beverages: Stubborn sodas, beers, sake, teas and those cool CBD beverages and their “tap” water is purified alkaline water.read more

The food is amazing, enough for now and later. The staff is very friendly and helpful. If you like heat they can pack a punch with diablo sauce and the amazing dry Asian spice mix to top things off. From torched octopus to the local catch of the day there’s something for everyone.read more

Heard about this place opening up not too long ago and finally got around to going in. My coworker and I were greeted by the 2 gentlemen behind the counter who were preparing the food. The fish was awesome! You can tell that they get their fish fresh and prepare it fantastically. There was no chewiness, no odd coloring (like it had been sitting there a while), and the flames octopus was a great option. If you're around the area, definitely check them out!read more

Absolutely amazing! Extremely fresh fish and a plethora of delicious sauces and toppings to add. Total customization and the service is very helpful in suggesting tasty combos. You can come back here time after time and have something different every time. I also love that they serve natural sodas, beer and wine, and their utensils and bowls are all compostable. I love Grubbys and their poke place does not disappoint! We will be back!read more

So, I have tried a lot of poke places and this place has the most fresh fish and such a great selection of bowls! They also have fresh fish of the day, which I am excited to try next time I go in! They even have poke nachos! Which sounds amazing and I have not tried yet but look forward to trying next time I go in! This poke place is so fresh and different. I think everyone should try it! There is something for everyone, they even have organic tofu! Oh and the first scoop of avocado is free which is amazing cause everyone knows we have to get avocado! And their garlic pozu is a must on your bowl! I have to say, I honestly love this place and it is my new go to poke spot! There is a huge selection and so many options. Took me a little bit to see everything! I love the menu and they even have these great soda choices, the citrus hibiscus soda is amazing! I don’t even like soda usually! Also, the staff is so sweet and helpful with great options! Shout out to Eli and Sean for making my amazing bowl 🤗Great job to the owner creating this amazing delicious place!read more
