Terrific Takeout: Poke Restaurant
Peachy Deegan rarely eats Sushi. She does love seafood, but usually cooked. Poke Restaurant has her thinking twice now though as it is distinctly the best sushi we've encountered in Manhattan. Red snapper, Golden Big Eye Snapper, Jack Fish, Seared Toro all together found out that their lifetime in Peachy's stomach would be infinitely happier than on the above. By the way, they don't normally do takeout, but as most peachy places do, they did takeout for Peachy Deegan. The Seared Scallop and Seared Salmon in the "Truffle" were simply outstanding:
Another bonus: their green salad, which is avocado green salad at Poke! It is on par with green salads of some of the best restaurants and we love the avocado accent. B.J. and Stefano were perfectly pleasant and with a name like Whom You Know, you know everyone we work with must speak perfect English and you can be assured they do at Poke. This is more difficult than you would imagine at Manhattan Asian restaurants generally, so it is a delight to find such hospitality as well at Poke, which is truly Terrific Takeout!
