    Great selections and good service! Got take out and everything was prepared quickly. Will be back to sample more rolls soon.

    Seeweed salad, Red Bull roll, large Sapporo beer, hot small sake
    Cynthia j.

    Feeling so glad that I decided to give another local restaurant a chance because it did not disappoint. The Red Bull roll was an explosion of flavor in my mouth and it had just the perfect amount of spicy so that I could feel the kick! The seaweed salad was also very tasty and the porcion was perfect for the price. Overall, I reccomend you come and give SushiKo a chance and treat yourself!

    Food was delicious, service was great, and the place was so cute! Loved the red chandeliers

    Receipt

    Today I visited Sushiko with my sister during our lunch break, hoping to enjoy some sushi. Unfortunately, our experience was far from what we expected. After over an hour of waiting, we asked how long until our food would arrive. The server said it would be 15 minutes. Thirty minutes later, I inquired again, asking if she could bag our food to go and how much longer it would be. That's when we were told that the printer hadn't printed our order, and it would be another 10 minutes. I would understand if they are busy, the other table of two had gotten their food before we sat down. We were the only other people seating in the restaurant. They take way tooo long, I don't recommend it. Frustrated and on a tight schedule, we decided to cancel our order, as we simply didn't have time to wait any longer. What made the situation worse was the server's sarcastic remark wishing us a good day as we left. It's disheartening to encounter such poor service, especially when you're looking forward to a meal. We ended up having to return to work on an empty stomach, which was incredibly disappointing. I can't recommend this place based on my experience.

    "Hot lady"
    V. H.

    What a gem. Sushiko sushi is worth the price point, because of its high quality food, presentation and taste. Not to mention two sashimi like rolls (no rice; fish wrapped), one of which I sampled; "Hot lady", which was a whole new approach to my sushi eating experience and was fantastic. The "playboy" was delicious. The ambience is mellow, clean and has a club-like feel. My waitress, Michelle, was kind, attentive and gave wonderful suggestions. I will definitely look forward to treating myself to Sushiko again.

    Dancing spicy salmon

    It was dead inside I don't know why, the food was delicious, service was excellent. Ordered the dancing spicy salmon and miso, both very good meals. The server was attentive and very kind. It was a little dark in there so when I walked out my eyes hurt lol but that's fine too.

    The Amount Paid Disappointing!!!
    Jynie W.

    I didn't expect paying $16.95. I can't even feed two to four people with what I got. I won't suggest buying fried rice from here my first time and last time. I love their seaweed salad, though. I thought to try other food. Really outrageous price for the amount of food receive. Very disappointed.

    Yum in the tum! We were supposed to eat at Tokyo Garden tonight for Teppanyaki, but something happened with our reservation. So, since the girls really only wanted sushi, we decided to give this place a try. The "A" rating in the window assured us that this place would at least pass our health code expectations as far as food safety and food handling! The service was fast and efficient. The atmosphere was clean, friendly, and soothing with the low dimmed lights! The food tasted fresh with a great presentation! Will definitely be going back!

    yellowtail + salmon
    Trung N.

    3.5 stars The last time I was in Bakersfield, my friend and I grabbed an early dinner on Sunday night at Sushi Ko. The restaurant was empty, but I noticed several customers coming in to pick up their to go orders. My friend and I shared the following: -yellowtail nigiri ($5.50 for 2 pieces) -salmon nigiri ($4.50 for 2 pieces) -spicy tuna salad ($14.95): sliced tuna sashimi in spicy sauce -rainbow roll ($13.99): California roll topped with 4 types of fish + avo -crazy dream roll ($13.99): crab, avocado, cucumber (inside), topped with baked salmon I thought the yellowtail and salmon nigiri were great - both were melt in your mouth good. The salmon piece inched a little on the larger scale which made it suspect, but nonetheless, no complaints here. Both the rainbow and baked salmon rolls were adequately good - basic rolls I've had at other sushi establishments, but here, nothing really stood out about the rolls. The baked salmon roll was good but unmemorable. I felt like the fish stretched out just enough to cover the rolls, with nothing more to add. The spicy tuna salad was generous in portion, however, I was not expecting spicy tuna in poke form. A generous heap of poke topped the salad, which I thought was interesting. The salad itself doesn't come with dressing, so we had to ask for an additional side of dressing otherwise the salad was too dry on its own. Bits of the tuna were too sinewy for my preference, so for the most part, I stuck to eating just the salad. Well, sushi does exist in Bakersfield, but determining the best one with the freshest fish and best sushi roll concoctions? Who knows. Up to you to decide.

    Udon soup and Lobster Hills
    Mary Z.

    Had dinner last night with a couple of friends. The restaurant itself isn't very inviting. The front doesn't look like much (dirty windows and minimal signage) and when you go inside it's pretty dark. It was also warm inside. It was a pretty hot day outside and it didn't seem like the air conditioner worked very well. All three of us were sweating. I was greeted right away and seated to wait for my friends. The waitress was very attentive. My friends each had a Bento box which they enjoyed. I had the Udon soup and the Lobster Hills. I really enjoyed both. Had to take a lot of food home with me because the portions were pretty ample. So the nearly $50 I spent on my dinner and drinks will actually be two meals. The soup was delicious, somewhat spicy, contained thick noodles, mushrooms onions and the broth was just amazing! The Lobster Hills was also very good. The only complaint I have is that it was a baked roll so the top of the dish was hot as if it had been baked for a little bit but the rolls underneath the Langostino were cold. It was quite tasty though. My first time having Langostino and it really does taste like lobster. Honestly I'd like this place because the food was good but the atmosphere wasn't very comfortable.

    We had the Bakersfield roll, golden salmon, soft shell crab (forgot the name) and ex girlfriend roll. All the rolls were delicious and cooked to our liking. The rice was unexpectedly delicious. You don't go out expecting to have rice this good! I just wish there was a sashimi menu.

    I ordered the red bull sushi which was good, but every piece I picked up would fall apart instantly...it was definitely a challenge to eat.

    Always a great experience here! Even on a busy Friday night, we were seated quickly and the service…read morestayed efficient and friendly. The staff is warm and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The ambiance is lively with an open-concept layout, so if you're looking for a quiet or intimate setting, this might not be the spot, but the food makes up for it! I ordered the spicy chicken noodles, and the portion was very generous. I personally wished it had a bit more heat. We also tried the spicy edamame and the 8-piece gyoza. Both were excellent!

    It had been a few years since our last visit to Shoyu Sushi, so we decided to stop by again, this…read moretime dining inside instead of taking food to go. I'm glad we did, because it gave us a whole new feel for the place. Inside isn't massive, but it's not cramped either. Think of it like the Goldilocks of restaurant spaces: just right. The vibe leans calm and cozy, dim lighting, black walls, and splashes of color here and there. It's got that "peaceful sushi zen" atmosphere without being boring. Our waitress deserves a medal (or at least an extra roll on the house). She was the only one working the floor, yet somehow managed to be friendly, attentive, and efficient all at once. Multitasking level: expert. Now onto the food, which is really why we came back. We ordered a spread: two teriyaki chicken plates, one chicken ramen bowl, an order of sushi crunch rolls, egg rolls, a large pineapple sake, a beer, and two iced teas. (Yes, we came hungry. Don't judge.) Everything came out quickly, hot, and fresh. The chicken was juicy, the rice perfectly cooked, and the little bed of veggies under the teriyaki chicken was tender-crispy and surprisingly addictive. Whoever thought of tucking those under there deserves a raise. The ramen had bold flavors that hit the spot, and the sushi rolls lived up to their name, they really were crunchy and delicious. Now, the egg rolls. Let me tell you, these might just be the best I've ever had. Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and stuffed with flavor on the inside. The kind that makes you regret ordering only one plate. Drinks? The beer was cold (and surprisingly affordable), the iced teas were strong and refreshing, and the pineapple sake... well, it was different, let's just say it's not everyone's cup of tea. Personally, I'll stick to tequila, lol, but my husband happily claimed the sake as his new favorite. Win-win. Prices here are fair and budget-friendly, which is always nice to see at a sushi spot. The place was clean and well-kept, and I'm happy to say it still holds up just as well as when I ordered takeout years ago. Bottom line: Shoyu Sushi is still doing its thing, fresh food, good prices, relaxing vibe, and service that makes you feel taken care of. If you want sushi that crunches, teriyaki that comforts, and egg rolls that just might ruin all other egg rolls for you, this is the spot.
