Spoiled cucumber

This place used to be spectacular. A must have spot for fresh sushi and poki. But for the last year, it has been anything but that. I ordered a medium bowl that costed nearly $20+ just for me to receive cucumbers and edamame sides that were spoiled and rancid. Had to spit out my food due to the vile taste. Other than the cucumber and edemame the food was okay. Definitely it worth the premium price they have it at. I don't know if there has been a change of ownership or something, but regardless, the food is terrible. The ambiance is still the same, but the service is honestly sad. Ownership has one lady working the entire restaurant, I was waiting for about 5-10min before she came to take my order. I felt bad to see the employee having to do everything. I just hope that they change their ways back to how they were when they first opened. I also hope that I don't get sick from the food.

Yum!!! Love the Mexican twist to the poke bowl! You customize it to your taste. My fiancé and I got a small bow which includes two proteins and one side. Very delicious! Usually tables are opened to eat inside and lots of parking outside! Don't forget to get the lunch card! Will definitely be back

Huge 2 item! Had to leave a review. Been here several times, and always a hit, but in the past 2 times it has been this polite, thin, young man that has helped me. He NEEDS a raise! And a paid day off! The service has been off the charts! His Service and the quality of food is what will grow your Biz. If you're in the area, you must stop by, for sure when he's here!

not bad, but not wow'd.. I ordered two small bowls with: 1/2 rice, 1/2 salad, salmon, tuna, cucumber, jalapeno, onion, green onion, cilantro, sesame oil, spicy mayo, side of seaweed salad (the other had side of crabmeat), topped with sesame seeds and seaweed. something about the dressings here I wasn't a fan of, and it's my go-to for poké bowls..maybe it's just me. Also the seaweed salad looked off, so I just didn't eat it. I'd probably only return if I really wanted poké and my usual spot was closed. there were other food items on the menu that might be worth trying.

Really liked this poki place. The workers were super nice and generous, which made the whole experience better. The food was really good too, a bunch of flavors that all worked really well together. Definitely coming back

I've been coming to PokiMX for years before the pandemic--and it's been a go-to spot for me, usually once a week. The food has always been solid, and it felt like one of those rare, dependable places you could count on. But today was different--and not in a good way. I was shocked when I checked the prices. I'm not sure if it was the owner or the manager at the register, but I was overcharged by five dollars. Whether it was a mistake or an attempt to make up for lost revenue, I honestly don't know. What I do know is that it felt dishonest. After years of loyalty, it's disappointing to walk away feeling like I've been taken advantage of. I won't be coming back. Hope that extra five dollars was worth losing a long-time customer.

Was supposed to be a Salmon Hand Roll but more like a rice roll

I got my order to go and no soy sauce or hot sauce nothing just napkins lol My hand roll came with like 8 sheets of seaweed I couldn't even bite into it cause of how tough it was and it was more rice then fish

Had jury duty at the San Fernando courthouse and was on Google looking for a place to have lunch, especially since you get 90 minutes. Found this place and was about a few blocks away. Ample time to make the trek. It's in a small strip mall next to Starbucks. Inside is very clean. You can not only get poke bowls but also burrito, nachos and even cut rolls too. I opted for the medium bowl which was $17.95 and you get 3 proteins. I got two salmon and one scallops. Filled it up with the usual sides, toppings and brown rice. Was very filling. Also used the yelp check in deal for a free drink and got the strawberry drink. Was delicious. All in all a good poke place and a nice option for anyone having jury duty and looking for lunch options.

Rice was so hard, truly disappointing. There were pieces that were stuck together and not because it was sticky, but because it was old.

Hi, I love going to a particular sushi place mainly for there yuzu sauce, but that place is far. I was looking to change it up. Do you by any chance have yuzu sauce? That spicy lemony sauce is to die for.

It's actually pretty cute, not gonna lie--but definitely on the tighter side. The service was great, especially considering we came in about an hour before closing. No complaints there at all. As for the food, this might sound a bit nitpicky, but there were a few things that stood out. We ordered edamame, which surprisingly came without salt (it usually does). My wife and I both got the chicken ramen since they were out of pork, and we also ordered the Dodger sushi roll. The sushi was excellent--super flavorful and easily the highlight of the meal. The ramen, though, came out insanely hot--like it had just been pulled from the surface of the sun. I ended up burning my mouth right away, so I couldn't really enjoy or taste the broth. On top of that, it had way more mushrooms than noodles, and the chicken portions were almost nonexistent. For an $88 bill, I would've liked to see a bit more attention to detail, especially with the small things and something as simple as serving temperature. Overall, some good and some not-so-good. Great service and sushi, but the ramen and a few details left a bit to be desired.

Ive always been here during their happy hour/ social hour became the deals they have are pretty good with beer and select sushi rolls.

They have attempted to charged the full price of whatever items we had got and not the happy hour/ social hour price. They've always corrected the pricing after I let them know BUT it had happened 4 of 5 times that I have been here. Make sure you check your check!

While a delivery driver was bringing supplies from the rear of the building, I observed what appeared to be rats coming from the back area and moving toward the restaurant area. What was even more concerning was the way the situation was handled. The driver appeared careless and attempted to step on the animal and strike at it in an area directly connected to where food supplies were being handled. As a customer and member of the public, witnessing this was extremely disappointing and raised serious concerns about sanitation, food safety, and the overall management of the delivery and storage areas. A restaurant has a responsibility to maintain a clean and safe environment, especially in areas where food products are received and transported inside. I believe this matter deserves immediate attention from the restaurant owners and appropriate health officials. Proper pest control, employee training, and strict sanitation procedures are essential for any food establishment. I hope management takes this observation seriously and investigates the situation to ensure that customers are protected and that proper health and safety standards are being followed.

And a quick search from Yelp reminded me that we were here last time! I guess they are still attractive. This place felt like it was run by the Vietnamese, as all hosts and servers spoke Vietnamese to each other. The menu is as extensive as before, 2 full pages of rolls! One page is the standard ones, like the Lion King, sumo rolls, 49er's, and the other page is their special rolls. Unlike last time that we tried a bunch of their special appetizers (and they are still the same on the menu), we tried the rolls and bento this time and I think I like that more. We ordered the Teena roll, the Gilbert roll, an order of salmon roe sushi, a side order of chicken fried rice, and a tempura bento. The rolls tasted good, soft and slightly chewy in the mouth with a blend of all the sashimi and crab meat and sticky Japanese rice. The tempura bento was sumptuous! It came with a bowl of miso soup, a bowl of white rice, 4 or 5 pieces of gyoza, a salad, cucumber, a pre-cut orange, and 8 or 9 pieces of tempura of a variety. My least favorite is probably the salmon roe sushi as I wish the roes look bigger and more orange-y. Service was great. Although we were told they were busy and we might have to wait a bit, food started to come in less than 5 minutes! We didn't get a water refill but the glass of water was big. Dirty dishes were taken away timely too. I've been abused by the Bay Area exorbitant prices for a long time, it was such a pleasure to see rolls priced at $15. So overall, it was a good dinner in town.
