I'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend Sushi Roka to anyone looking for amazing sushi and great service!

Out of everything, my favorite is the ability for this place to stay consistent and that all food is tasty and flavorful while having a huge menu. I really enjoy the spicy mayo here. The servers are always so nice and paying is through their toast little handheld device. Parking spots are plentiful, but a little small in size. This place is god for big parties and I love coming here when there is a game because the multiple tvs are typically basketball/baseball/football. I highly recommend coming here!

Our eyes were definitely bigger than our stomachs on this visit... but honestly, no regrets…read more We hadn't eaten all day, so we may have gone a little overboard. We ordered the Kimchi & Bacon Fried Rice, a Poke Salmon Bento Box, a Philadelphia Roll, and a Dragon Roll. The fried rice was fantastic, but the kimchi was easily my favorite part. It brought just the right amount of tang and spice that made every bite better. Now for my personal breakthrough... Growing up, I was never much of a seafood person. My partner has been slowly introducing me to sushi, and this dinner felt like another milestone. The Philadelphia Roll confirmed that I'm definitely a salmon fan, and the Dragon Roll introduced me to eel... which turns out I also really like. It's always fun when a meal changes your mind about something you've avoided for years. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and another huge bonus was simply finding a great restaurant in Poway that stays open later than most places. Sometimes that's exactly what you need after a long day. We definitely ordered more food than we could finish, but that's just another excuse to come back. Looking forward to trying even more of the menu next time.

Cute sushi spot near Phil's bbq…read more Very warm and inviting inside and I like all the booths and how spaced out they are even in the center of the restaurant. There's a lot of businesses around this area so I can see Sushi Kami being a popular spot for a go-to lunch outside of work. We came for dinner and got seated right away and it wasn't too busy at all. It was nice but still casual at the same time if that makes sense. I will say the parking was a little tight and we had to make a bit of an awkward U-turn to get to the restaurant but the lot wasn't that full so it wasn't too bad but I could see this being trickier in the daytime. I really enjoyed both the spicy tuna and salmon. I've had a lot of weird spicy tuna but this one hit just right. It's always hard to find that perfect balance between fish and spice but I really enjoyed this one. The salmon was good too. The standout was definitely the tempura we got as well. It was large and came out hot and crispy and perfect. This is the type of sushi restaurant I could take people to who don't necessarily like sushi all that much. There's lots of options on the menu including bulgogi (next time I shall try!) and really good combos for people to enjoy. Ambiance is chill but still has that fun sushi vibe with the displays of fish (and I even saw some creative fish decorating on the walls which I thought was a nice touch) Service was nice and they always refilled our waters without us having to ask. I enjoyed the food and the vibe! Would definitely come back to try more ...and brings others along too!

Salmon Kama was our favorite and I have never seen it on a happy hour menu before. Such a big piece that was so fatty and meaty! We ordered a few of those! It does take a while to make so allow time for this. Already made plans to come back again next week!

The service was friendly and attentive. We ordered the Premium Chirashi, Gato Secret Nigiri, and…read morethe Gato Special Roll. The Premium Chirashi was the highlight of the meal. It came with a generous variety of fish and felt like it was worth the value. The Gato Secret Nigiri was decent, with a few standout pieces, but nothing that really wowed us. Unfortunately, the Gato Special Roll wasn't very memorable and definitely didn't feel worth the $25 price tag. The Wagyu was what convinced us to order it, but it didn't have the rich flavor or texture you'd expect from Wagyu, so it ended up being disappointing. Overall, the fish quality was just average for the price. However, I loved their kizami wasabi-it had a bold, spicy kick that really complemented the sushi. The restaurant has a trendy atmosphere and friendly staff, but considering the cost, I expected higher-quality fish and more memorable flavors.

I ordered for pickup, and the employee Josh was super friendly and helpful when I came in, which made for a great first impression. The sushi was delicious! The portions were generous and definitely filling. I really liked that the eel sauce wasn't overpowering which complemented the rolls perfectly instead of masking the other flavors. Everything tasted fresh, and the flavor combinations were spot on. This place is definitely a hidden gem. It's a smaller restaurant, but there's plenty of parking, and the service was excellent. If you're looking for quality sushi at a great price, I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try. Great spot for lunch, dinner, or grabbing a meal with friends and family. I'll definitely be back!

Staff were exceptionally warm and friendly, making us feel like regulars. Being a nigiri guy, I'm particular about my sushi, but theirs was solid. The fish was fresh, cut to perfection, and tasted incredible. My wife ordered a few of their specialty rolls. I'm normally not a roll guy, but I ended up stealing bites because they just hit. I believe he was the head chef, but Anthony, was super cool, personable, and talented. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in his craft, and it really shows on the plate. If you are looking for a solid sushi joint, a great neighborhood vibe, and stellar hospitality, you have to check this place out!

We ordered takeout, and the food was packaged well!…read more We ordered the: -Sashimi champloo ($31.95): This had twelve pieces of prime cuts of salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and chef's choice. Every piece was delicious! -Chirashi bowl ($30.95): I really enjoyed the sushi rice in this bowl since not every restaurant does quality sushi rice. The sashimi was pretty good, but quality wise the sashimi champloo was definitely superior. -Salmon mango roll ($9.50): This had spicy salmon, mango, and ume furikake. This was quite tasty, and definitely had a kick to it. -Maru Maru roll ($9.50): This had imitation crab meat, shrimp tempura, and avocado. A basic roll but still good. -Chicken katsu curry don ($16.95): This was disappointing because the portion was quite small for the price. I do like how the curry was packaged separately. All in all, Hakumaru has quality sashimi and rolls, but could work on portion size for chicken katsu curry don.
