Da Poké Man is a hole-in-a-wall-on-wheels, a food truck, that serves fresh, spicy, and savory poké dishes all across the Bay Area. They are also notably found in Oracle Park in section 112 near the Promenade during SF Giants games and other special events.

I found Da Poké Man’s truck at a Polynesian event in South San Francisco and decided to go with their go-to #1 seller and customer favorite: Spicy Ahi poké ballpark nacho style. 

The dish consists of fresh Ahi made with traditional Hawaiian spices on top of nacho chips smothered with special mayo-based spicy sauce. 

The service was rapid; I was in and out. The moment I paid 30 seconds later, I got my fresh fish. 

What I loved the most about Da Poké Man is that they let the fish do the talking, not any of the toppings. 

     As I ate the dish, I was immersed in the freshness of the Ahi fish, as if it was the first catch of the day. What came next was the mayo-based spicy sauce that erupted with flavor like an active volcano. 

Finally, the crunchiness of the nacho chips was an unexpected match with the poké, which surged my taste buds like a mighty tidal wave. 

Da Poké Man is a matchless choice when looking for poké in the Bay Area. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for fresh fish because it’s a taste that brings you to Hawaii.
