Dear friends, there are many poke places in the city, but only a few have passed my rigorous inspection. The absolute favorite is Poke Samba, located at Piazza San Alessandro. In the heart of the city, it’s difficult to find a place where you can have a quick and affordable meal that is also incredibly tasty.
Just imagine having lunch on a sun-drenched, stunning square, just five minutes away from the Duomo. Yes, please note that you can only eat here outside, so consider the weather. And all of this for just 12 euros. 🔥
Poke Samba is owned by Brazilians. The staff is friendly and the ingredients are incredibly fresh. It’s a rare place where you can choose a mix of black rice and salad as the base for your bowl (I highly recommend this combination). Moreover, the rice here is undoubtedly the tastiest among all the poke places in the city. The other ingredients are up to your taste, but I personally prefer salmon as the protein. And the best part is that almost all the delicious toppings are included in the price: the moderately spicy guacamole, the cashew and pistachio sprinkle, and the tortillas.
Poke Samba is open every day from 12 to 3 pm, and on weekends from 12 to 4 pm.
For the locals, I’ll add that the place offers delivery through services like Glovo. I often take advantage of this option for my lunch.
