I will admit immediately I was not expecting much of this place, since its environs are kind of dingy in the Global Food court, and it's a Poké place by name. But I saw they had Pad Thai, and I always order the pad Thai whenever I'm at a new restaurant.
The counter clerk was a friendly sociable fellow and we chatted about what spice level he'd put down for me. I said that I would be fine with "a step below native east Asian level of spice but above the average Wisconsin stereotype spice" and he laughed and agreed that did help clarify that I wasn't a noob for spicy food.
In its plastic carton it immediately looked promising. I could see the fresh, crisp sprouts on top, and a good portion of crunchy peanuts on the side, and most importantly, not too saucy. The light sauce lets the flavors stand on their own more. I was seriously impressed. And the price was very good for 2023 as well. All and all, I'll definitely be back here for more. One of the most authentic Pad Thai recipes I've found in Madison thus far.
My friends and I eat here often. We absolutely love their Pho and Bahn Mi! On Par with all the bests in Madison! I live in the East side and eat at Global quite often. One thing I must say about this place is that not only is the food great, the people are amazing! You can walk around the food court and order from other places, but their customer service is unfortunately not there. The other places are a bit gloomy and sometimes look like they don't even want to take your order lol, but Poke Mi's staff always welcomes you with a smile and friendly attitude! Highly recommend eating here if you're ever in the area!
This place is phenomenal. Best pad Thai I’ve ever had. Everything I’ve had here is delicious. Worth the drive from sun prairie for me. Doesn’t get more authentic
This is my absolute favorite place at Global Market. The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with my meal! Staff are also great and always efficient, happy, and polite. Arguably the best pho at Global Market.
So this place is inside of the global market building. I ordered chicken pad thai and the pork egg rolls. Service was quick and friendly and the food came out hot. They also serve bottled soda and water.
