I was in the mood for poke but wasnt in the right direction to get to the Japanese markets in Kearny Mesa so I fired up my Yelp app to see where along the route home I would find a good poke location. I wanted to go to Hawaiian fresh seafood in Poway but it was going to close right when I arrived, so I chose this place as it has better later hours. This location is in a strip mall but dont let the looks of this place deter you. The regular plate comes with 3 proteins and lots to choose from and I was quite overwhelmed. In the end, I choose tuna, salmon and seared tuna. I liked the tuna and salmon but will choose something else than seared tuna next time. I had half rice and half greens, and I can't do spicy so the guy helping me just added some sesame oil and ponzu for me. I dont know how he knew but I dont like any of my fish drowning in sauce and he knew that without even asking me. I got a bunch of veggie toppings as I love vegetables. Pile on the radish, cucumbers, edamame, corn, masago, seaweed salad, green onions, furikake! Overall, this was a great poke spot and portion size generous but you are paying $20 for the dish which includes taxes and tips. Id def come back again!

Watch out for the online ordering "glitch"…read more Ordered takeout through their website and had a bit of a frustrating experience. The online menu is a bit misleading since it allows you to select a drink as if it's included in the meal price, but upon pickup, the staff informed us it was an extra charge. It felt a bit deceptive, so I really hope they fix that technical glitch soon to avoid awkwardness at the counter. As for the food, it was decent. I tried the half chips and mixed greens base this time, but it wasn't quite my favorite combo. If you're ordering, I'd suggest sticking with the white rice and mixed greens instead for a much better balance.

Best sushi spot in Escondido! I come here at least once a month for sushi dates, and it never…read moredisappoints. Alex is usually our waitress, and she's been working here for a long time. She's always attentive throughout our entire dining experience and makes us feel well taken care of without being overbearing. She has such a warm friendly personality, and it's clear she genuinely enjoys what she does. As for the food, we like to try different rolls each time. Some of our favorites so far are the Escondido roll, Dynamite roll (definitely one of our top picks), Dragon roll, and the asparagus tempura roll. We'll sometimes add a spicy California roll too. On colder days, I love getting their miso soup or spicy tonkatsu ramen, you can even switch out the protein for an extra charge, which is a nice option. My husband usually goes for the chicken katsu curry, and I really enjoy the beef yakisoba or the teriyaki salmon. So if you're in Escondido definitely give them a try!

If waiting were an Olympic sport, this restaurant would be taking home the gold medal every year…read more I've given this place chance after chance over the last year, hoping each visit would be the one where everything finally clicked. Instead, it's become a masterclass in patience. The employees seem to have discovered the secret to unlimited break time because every visit they're either in the front or the back enjoying conversations while customers stand around wondering if they've accidentally become invisible. When I judge a sushi restaurant, I keep it simple: miso soup and a basic roll. If you can't make the opening act exciting, I'm probably not sticking around for the encore. Unfortunately, the miso tasted like someone waved a seaweed packet over hot water and called it a day, and the basic rolls had all the excitement of eating cardboard with a gym membership. Then there's the outside food policy. Apparently, if your toddler dares to nibble on a chicken nugget from next door while the rest of the family orders sushi, the Food Police are ready for action. You could walk in wearing a tuxedo made of hundred-dollar bills and order the entire menu, but one tiny bite of outside food? That's apparently the culinary equivalent of a federal crime. The strange part is that the restaurant actually has potential. The problem isn't the building... it's the complete lack of urgency. Watching customers wait while staff casually chat feels less like dining out and more like watching a sitcom where everyone forgot they're supposed to be working. After a year of giving this place more second chances than a reality TV contestant, I'm officially done. If you're in Escondido, do yourself a favor: spin around, point in a random direction, Google "sushi near me," and you'll probably find a place where the staff remembers customers exist. I genuinely wanted to like this restaurant. Unfortunately, the service disappeared faster than the flavor in the miso soup.

Three Go Sushi has become one of our favorite spots in Escondido. It's one of those little hole in…read morethe wall places that doesn't look like much from the outside, but somehow always ends up being exactly what you're craving. The service is consistently great. They always make us feel welcome and this time they took care of us even though we came in right before closing. We ordered three sushi rolls, but honestly they never stood a chance. We ate them so fast I completely forgot to take pictures. If you're a sushi fan, get the Dragon Crunch Roll. It disappeared from our table in record time. We also ordered the house special fried rice, chicken teriyaki ramen, beef and chicken yakisoba, and the Korean popcorn chicken. The fried rice was packed with flavor and had a little bit of everything. The yakisoba was delicious, the ramen was comforting, and the Korean popcorn chicken was perfectly crispy with a nice little kick. It also came with miso soup, salad, and rice, which was more than enough food. Nothing here is overcomplicated. It's just good food, good portions, and genuinely great service every time. When we're trying to decide where to eat, Three Go Sushi is usually the answer. We'll definitely be back. Hopefully next time I'll remember to take pictures of the sushi before it's gone.

The food is average at best and doesn't compare to many other AYCE sushi restaurants in San Diego…read moreCounty. As an Escondido resident, I visited once with my son simply because it was convenient and we wanted to give it a try. The food was decent, but certainly nothing worth going out of your way for, especially considering the price. My older son is a true sushi aficionado, so he decided to go back the very next day on his own to give the restaurant another chance. Instead of simply enjoying his meal, he was approached by the manager, who questioned him about the tip and implied that he had eaten "too much." I've never experienced or even heard of an AYCE restaurant confronting a customer for eating what they're paying for. I initially gave the restaurant the benefit of the doubt. I assumed it was an isolated misunderstanding and encouraged my son to try again in the future, even suggesting he leave a better tip. Unfortunately, when he returned on another occasion, he was outright refused service. The explanation? According to the restaurant, he "eats too much." That is astonishing for a business built around the concept of all you can eat. If serving customers with healthy appetites is a problem, then perhaps they shouldn't advertise themselves as an AYCE restaurant. Needless to say, my family will never return. The food is mediocre, the prices are no better than competing AYCE sushi restaurants, and the way customers are treated is unlike anything I've encountered elsewhere. There are far better options in San Diego County that offer higher-quality sushi and know how to treat paying customers with respect. As a final note, the restaurant itself did not leave a great impression. Our table was sticky, and the men's restroom was poorly maintained, with a toilet continuously running and a broken urinal. Combined with the mediocre food and the unbelievable customer service, this was an experience we won't be repeating.

We came for lunch on a Saturday afternoon, and it was a great choice. The ambiance was relaxed and…read morepretty quiet, and the staff were fast and attentive, and very helpful answering our questions about the menu. We got the garlic edamame, which was a nice and generous appetizers to split for 2-3 people. We also got the dragon roll, spicy tuna roll (which was ACTUALLY spicy), and the salmon avocado rolls, as well as the salmon nigiri. All of the food was delicious and very reasonably priced, and worth the trip. Additionally, a huge thank you and kudos to the staff for being so kind and warm about our excitement watching the World Cup matches that we're playing while we were eating. They were very sweet and understanding, and didn't rush us at all, which made it much more enjoyable to take our time and savour the food and the game. Overall this is a great spot to grab sushi and enjoy some quality time with friends or family, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a good Japanese and sushi restaurant!

It was Sunday night and we were driving back to Escondido from Anaheim. GPS says they close at 9:30 PM. We roll in at exactly 9:05 PM. Place still had customers inside, open tables, and two hostesses literally started walking us to a table. The male host said, "Last call is in 10 minutes." Cool. I jokingly ask, "For alcohol?" because I wanted TWO damn sushi rolls, not a 12-course feast. He says with a smile, "No. Last call for food and everything else." Okay... easy day. We already knew exactly what we wanted. Simple order. In and out. No biggy. Then came the look. You know the look. The "damn it, I want to go home, why did customers show up during business hours?" look from management and the sushi chefs. Next thing you know, manager says we cannot be served. Wait... what happened to "last call in 10 minutes?" Suddenly now it is, "You missed last call at 9:00 PM." It was 9:06 PM. So your establishment closes at 9:30 PM... but actually closes at 9:00 PM... but also has a last call in 10 minutes... but also refuses service? Got it. Crystal clear. Listen, if y'all want to leave at 9:00, then change the damn hours to 9:00. Do not advertise 9:30 and have people driving 70 miles just to get hit with attitude and false hope. So we walked out and went somewhere else. Being turned away wasn't the problem. The problem was being treated like customers showing up during YOUR posted business hours was somehow our fault. Change your damn hours to 9:00 pm then. Do better!

California Fish Grill is a solid choice when it comes to affordability and high quality. Was invited to a Yelp event previously and hadn't been back. Julie and I were in the neighborhood and were struggling to find a quality quick meal. We happened across a coupon for a free taco at California Fish Grill. Sadly the coupon had expired. The team quickly found a way to offer us something substantial instead. A current offer allows guests to download their app and receive a free Everything Protein Bowl. Such a great deal! Order at the counter or via the kiosk, have a seat and your order is brought out to you. Extremely easy and delicious. Along with the Everything Protein Bowl, Julie ordered the Grilled Salmon Salad. The bowl had a variety of seafood including Cajun shrimp, salmon, swai and grilled chicken served on a bed of white rice, beans, diced tomatoes and a chili mix. Great flavor and variety. The salmon was cooked perfectly and served with a lime vinaigrette. Seating is easy and the team clears dishes after you're done. They offer some "healthy sodas" along with some creative juices. Will definitely be back! Keep on Yelp'n!

Our party of two waited about 20 minutes on a Friday night with no reservation. It was quite busy that day with many other tables waiting to be sat. There are a lot of options on the menu, ranging from cooked items to sushi and rolls. After placing our order, it took only about 10 minutes before we received the first dish and everything else followed. We ordered a roll the sashimi set a hand roll and also a bowl of ramen. Their salmon and engawa was tasty, but I wouldn't say their fish is the freshest or have much flavor to them. Unfortunately, we had an issue with our spicy tuna roll (there was a piece of metal found inside). I'm sure it was just overlooked. But service was very friendly and accommodating.

The ambiance walking in and then whether you're inside the structure or in the back garden is incredible. Enormous stones everywhere. It feels almost medieval inside the restaurant/bar area. Just very cool. Food was tasty. Daughter had the Caesar salad with actual anchovy garnish. She said it was a little over dressed, like it needed more romaine and less dressing. I had a delish super healthy salad I can't recall the name of but it had all sorts of yummy stuff. Unfortunately I had to drive so no beer tastings but once we got to San Diego airport and I realized there was a Stone Brewing offshoot there, I had a delicious hazy IPA I think actually had "delicious" in the name. I'd absolutely return to the Escondido location if I were in the area again, just on ambience alone. If I lived in the area, my husband and I would probably be there every weekend.
