Literally the best poki restaurant. The one in Escondido location could never compete with this branch . The girlies working last night really know how to make a plate ! They're super friendly , super clean and make a really good poki bowl ! I'm obsessed. After the gym this hits so good.

A hair-raising experience... literally!!! First time. Last time. I was traumatized. Imagine this: you're settling in, excited for a fresh poke bowl, only to discover a clump of hair tangled in your food. Not a strand. Not a single rogue hair. A clump. I didn't sign up for a side of someone's DNA. To top it off, they got my order wrong. I ordered no tofu but I guess I'm glad they added it as I begin to pull them out and it made the clunk of hair easier to see. However, I consumed some of the food!! So not only was I disgusted, I was also still hungry and nauseated!! There's nothing appetizing about wondering which stranger's scalp was mixed in with your meal!!! If I could give negative zero stars, I would. Never again!! Feeling sick and disgusted

Spicy tuna and tofu

All the employees are super nice! Great poke overall, never have had a bad experience with them! Love how they're always stocked and the atmosphere is excellent.

Poki Poki entrees are generously portioned where one entree can easily feed 2 people. Extra add ons are very minimal, which allows for customer to enjoy all their favorite fixings. The quality of ingredients of protein & vegetables are fresh.

‍ SURF, SAND, and now... POKI POKI! If you're in Oceanside and haven't tried Poke Poke, are you even living your best beach life? Let me break it down for you - it's like the ocean decided to do a culinary high-five with the mainland, and we're the lucky recipients of the resulting deliciousness. First of all, they're all about Hawaiian Poke, which is basically the superhero version of a bowl. Fresh ingredients team up in an epic battle for maximum flavor, and I'm here for it. Seriously, it's like the Avengers of food. And speaking of fresh, they don't mess around. Locally caught sushi-grade fish from the Pacific Ocean - straight into your bowl. It's like Nemo went on vacation and decided to become part of your lunch. Now, here's the thing - Poke Poke keeps it real. No fancy-schmancy stuff, just top-tier ingredients getting cozy together. You build your bowl like a boss, with California vibes in mind. Farm-fresh produce? Oh yeah, they've got that covered. Oh, and let's talk about Ana. She's like the foodie fairy godmother you never knew you needed. Ana was an absolute gem, super helpful with my order - making sure every ingredient danced together in perfect harmony. Seriously, if there were a Nobel Prize for Food Assistance, Ana would be our nominee. So, whether you're a wave-rider, a sandcastle builder, or just someone with an insatiable appetite for awesomeness, Poke Poke in Oceanside is where the party's at. Surf's up, flavor's in, and it's time to ride the taste wave. Cowabunga, foodies! P.S. If you're not humming the "Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride" song from Lilo & Stitch by the end of your meal, did you even Poke Poke?

Normally it's packed full wow now stingy with the toppings

So I keep trying new spots hoping one finally hits. I'd driven past Urban Teri Kitchen a bunch of times taking my kids to practices and games and finally decided to stop in. Didn't even check Yelp first. Just went in blind based on a good feeling about the place. Glad I did. I ordered the half-and-half with chicken teriyaki and katsu, and honestly it was one of the better teriyaki plates I've had anywhere around here. The chicken was flavorful, the katsu was crispy without being greasy, and everything tasted fresh. It's a little pricier than some teriyaki spots, but the quality backs it up. My wife and I could easily split one order next time. I came in around 4 PM, so it wasn't packed, but the people inside looked happy, the restaurant was clean, and the whole place just had a really good vibe. Sometimes you can tell within a minute whether a place cares about what they're doing, and this felt like one of those spots. There's a reason they've got 4.7 stars. If anything, I'd say that rating is deserved.

I like that this place uses the Yelp waitlist because I put my name down as we were on our way over and arrived just in time. We were seated quickly on a Saturday evening around 6 pm. There are a good amount of tables inside. They also had some TVs showing baseball games around. The service was amazing here. It felt like the waiters and waitresses were constantly eyeing our table to see if we needed anything or were ready to order more. They refilled our water carafe before it was completely empty, changed our grills before we asked, and took away empty plates as soon as we cleared them. I also appreciated that they put salt or something on the ground so it wasn't too slippery. The only complaint I had about the place was that it was really hot but I could see the waitresses were also really hot as they fanned themselves walking around. The food were was actually pretty solid for an ayce restaurant. We got the deluxe plan which is the cheaper option for $30.99. The brisket came with some salt and pepper on it and looked like a better cut than I've seen at other places. We also got some kalbi which came without the bone which is so nice because we didn't have to cut it off and have little meat left over. My husband and I also really liked the marinated steak. I typically like non marinated meat better but the steak was tender and the marinade wasn't too sweet. I used the salt to help cut the sweetness and wrapped it in a lettuce with some radish. I really liked all the meats we tried here. They also have really good sides here that you can't get anymore at a lot of kbbq places like the steamed egg or corn cheese plate. All of the food options were so good and I left very stuffed. I would definitely recommend then kbbq ayce restaurant to anyone in the area!

The service is fast and attentive, even when the restaurant is busy. Be sure to put your name on the waitlist ahead of time, as it can get crowded. There are plenty of delicious options to choose from, but my favorites are the finger garlic beef and the shrimp tempura. If you're looking for tasty food, great service, and lots of variety, Sonu BBQ is definitely worth a visit!

For group that wants sushi and something Southeast Asian (a little Thai, a little Indonesian)…read moreRopoongi is the place for you! First of all, the food was great. A little twist on the dishes made such a sweet surprise for dinner. For example, they had onion rings which was a cross between Japanese tempura & Southern Buttermilk batter. The chicken satay and beef skewers were served with homemade potato crisps/chips. Regarding sushi, this place was decent. Good quality fish, especially the toro and yellowtail. We got the Yuzu Snapper Roll (San Diego Magazine reader's choice award) and the Spicy Toro Roll. We liked the Spicy Toro Roll more than the Yuzu Snapper. However, we were happy with the lightness of the Yuzu Snapper Roll. We only got the pineapple fried rice with chicken as the cooked entree to share. It's a more "wet" fried rice but flavorful. It is in the business district so the area seemed very quiet. The restaurant itself is spacious and we saw groups of friends catching up to family dinner to romantic dates. We had an amazing server, Stephanie, who was knowledgeable about the menu and professional in the sense that she was friendly and efficient.
