    Build Your Poke Bowl (2 Scoops Protein)
    Laila S.

    My favorite place for lunch! I love how it's so clean and staff is always friendly & quick especially when I am running late for my meetings. This place actually made me love Poki bowels prior to this I couldn't eat raw fish. Definitely recommend this place!

    Nice little spot to get your Poke fix. The girls working there are nice. They took my kids orders and made the bowls promptly. All 3 bowls looked and tasted amazing. The spam Musubi's are always good choice and my daughter enjoyed her Green Tea with boba. Overall, a great option for Poke, spam Musubis and a refreshing drink.

    Ordered the regular poke bowl and onigiri. The poke bowl was packed and filled with fresh items. My only issue was that I couldn't taste any of the sauces and wish I asked for extra on the side. Other than that it was good food and will order again. The hamachi and spicy crab combination was really good.

    Best poki in Corona has yet to disappoint the portions are perfect! I got the small bowl but will definitely have leftover. Place is super clean and staff is very nice.

    I love poke and I'm really critical of where I go because bad poke doesn't end at the bowl. I always do my research ahead of time and inspect the fish before I order. Poke Cafe was recommended to me as one of the best poke spots in Corona. I was told it's good, but watch out for the extra charges. Let me start with what I loved. I loved my bowl. The salmon was delicious and great quality. I ordered a large bowl which came with 3 scoops. Scoops were decently sized. I ordered sesame oil, soy sauce, and spicy mayo. They have ALOT of sauce options that looked good and I plan on branching out on my next visit. They also have some cool toppings I've never seen at a poke place (tempura crunch, crispy garlic chips to name a few). Overall all the fish looked yummy--I'll try more next time. The people there were friendly, and it was easy to order my bowl. As for why this review is 4 stars instead of 5, it's due to their pricing, ambience, and parking. Parking close by may be difficult, but that's kind of the nature of things at Dos Lagos. As for ambience, this is not a poke spot that you will want to eat at. It's tiny and it seems they are expecting everyone to get food to go. Pricing, my large bowl came out to just under $18. That's slight above par for large bowl prices lately but I didn't get everything I usually get because of extra charges. I was surprised that the large bowl doesn't come with more protein, but it honestly was enough. They limit your sides to 4 for a large bowl (i.e crab salad, seaweed salad, edamame, cucumber). I definitely would have been happier with more cucumber and seaweed salad. I also thought it was weird that masago was $1 extra (I didn't get any). Luckily, they are generous with the sauces and toppings. Overall, I will be back to Poke Cafe to order outside my usual order. This place requires some strategic thinking with how you order, but it will be delicious! So far, this is the best poke I've had in Corona (I've been to 2 others in Corona).

    Solid poke place in a cute plaza. Portion was reasonable for the price and the fish tasted fresh. They also sell a lot of other items like sushi burritos and spam musubi, so there's something for everyone. My only complaint is that they go hard on the sauce lol. I got the house sauce and my bowl was doused in it. I appreciate the generosity but next time ill opt to just get my sauces on the side!

    Wow! It's been so hard to find a good poke place post covid but this is the place for me!! Service/wait: - the usual poke ordering system, just know this place doesnt mix your fish. Sauce goes on top of everything - friendly service, quick, attentive Poke bowl: - large portions - fresh fish - a variety of sauce!! Love the thai sweet, spicy mayo, and eel together - many sides and toppings, including tamago! - very worth the value on the amount of fish and toppings they give.

    Excellent service, cute little spot and most importantly amazing food!!!! Definitely recommend! I might have a slight obsession with poke and I *might've* been here 3 times this month I absolutely love it and will continue to come here regularly.

    Tried this lovely spot unexpectedly today! I didn't expect it to be so close to home and so tasty! I am so happy to have found this little gem. The poke was very very fresh, and their house sauce has the perfect kick! The service was also very good, and I appreciate that she took her time with me! The ambiance is really cute on the inside too. Thank you so much again and will see you soon!

    We just moved to the area and I'm on a quest to find the best Asian food. So happy to now have my go-to poke spot. -Fish is fresh -very friendly staff and service -establishment is clean and cute. Love the decor Poke bowl options: 1 protein- $12.95 2 protein- $15.45 3 protein- $17.45 I love that their chili owl is actually spicy, plenty of sauces. I'm so happy they have onigiri too!!! I always crave it and not many spots offer for a good price. I will be back!

The yuzu salmon roll had really fresh high quality salmon but the lemon taste was a bit too much for me. The tuna fries was the best part!!! The fries were crispy and it overall tasted very sweet. Good mixture of fries and tuna. Literally my favorite appetizer I've ever gotten in a sushi restaurant. A perfect western meets sushi dish as well! The service was great and bathroom was clean.

The shrimp tempura, cream cheese and avocado with crab meat was divine. The presentation of the roll was beautiful. I didn't have to worry about the sauces as they were placed upon the top. Thankfully I was able to eat each piece in one bite. The roll was cut into nine pieces. So much more than I thought I would receive. Since I am not used to eating this type of food, I wasn't sure I could safely consume it the following day so I made sure to eat it all. I really enjoyed it. The teriyaki chicken was served on a hot skillet. So flavorful. I took the majority of the chicken and rice for lunch the next day. I came back a few weeks later and it was much calmer. The service was great both times. I would recommend it.

We stumbled upon Rakki when we first moved to Chino Hills in 2023, and took a break from coming when our son was in the oven. It was definitely our go to Sushi spot when we had the energy to make it out there. We loved the various choices of nigiri, sushi rolls and even the appetizers. Shortly before they closed, the owner even gave us a complimentary yellowtail collar which was absolutely delicious, amazingly flavorful and super juicy (we never ordered this previously, since we always went with the AYCE option). The AYCE was very reasonably priced for what you got, and could be considered on the very cheap end, for quality of the food you got and options available. Rakki Sushi got high praises from our foodie friends who would visit us as well. The chef and staff were always super nice, they always came to check on how we were doing when they weren't too overwhelmed with the busyness, and we loved how super friendly they were. Our son loved the staff as well, and he always gave them smiles back in response to theirs. The ambience was more of a local/casual sushi spot, rather than somewhere fancy, which my wife and I greatly enjoyed since we like dressing comfortably in just t-shirts and joggers. The tables, seats, and utensils were always clean when we went there. The men's restroom wasn't the cleanest looking, but given the location it was understandable. Plus, we were there for the food, and not really to strictly use the restroom. We greatly miss you Rakki Sushi and hope you are able to come back one day!

The place didn't look like much from the outside -- a little run down in an older strip mall. But you can't judge a restaurant from the facade. I wouldn't say it's the best sushi I've ever had -- it's not. But for an AYCE place -- wow, it's pretty good. My previous favorite place was tomikawa in Irvine, but this place might be better. All the sushi we had was pretty fresh. And the other stuff we had such as jalapeno poppers and gyoza were very flavorful and tasty. The baked scallop could have been a little less runny, but the flavor was very good. The pieces of sushi are all very small -- I provide a picture with my index finger for perspective. Since the place is AYCE, this isn't a diss... Just something you should know. So if you think you want 4 large pieces of sushi, you might order 6 or even 8 here. In a way, I actually liked the smaller pieces, as they're easier to pop in your mouth and chew, and you can easily order a lot of different kinds to try without worrying that you can't finish all of them. The only thing missing is udon or ramen. I like to finish off a meal with a little warm noodles, and that's a notable miss. I'm not sure it's totally worth a deliberate trip from Irvine ... But we're definitely going to stop by any time we're in the area.
