Sushi was good but we sat there for over an hour before we got any food. The waitresses were yelling at each other and service was awful. They were rude and just not a great vibe. read more

The moment I walked in the place smelled like cigarette smoke..not saying they smoke but that place had a smell. I ordered #920 & #911 The avocado was not fresh the color was black and the sushi rice was mushy. The sushi tasted so bad I couldn't eat that mush! I don't recommend going there if you're in the mood for some good sushi. read more

We should have walked back out after noticing the filthy entrance. But we sat down to an empty place for lunch. I ordered sweet and sour chicken. A plate of fried chicken pieces was served with nothing on it. No onions, peppers or pineapple as described on the menu. I asked where the rest was and the waitress said ," We don't do that anymore ". My husband ordered the generals chicken. Again a pile of just chicken. White rice was provided on the side. We will not be going back. read more

We visited on a Friday for dinner. We started with complimentary edamame, miso soup, and hot & sour soup. The soups were hot, good and came out promptly. For mains, we ordered two sushi rolls (Philadelphia and Seafood Tempura) and udon noodle soup. My bad, but I didn't read the menu closely. I prefer Philly rolls with the salmon is inside, but the salmon was on top here. I thought the combo udon noodles would be stir fried; however, I missed that the menu said soup. The udon soup was enormous and can be shared by at least two people. The broth had good flavor, and I loved all the fresh veggies (broccoli, carrot, mushrooms). Quick and friendly service. I would return to try other rolls and entrees. I'll be sure to be more careful reading the menu or asking questions to clarify. read more

Went here last night for dinner as I had heard lot about it and overall, was not disappointed. (Note: Can be slightly confusing as the sign outside says Sushi Ko.) From the outside the place looks small, but it is quite a decent size inside and is very cozy. Sat down a d the sushi maker (very nice and hilarious) brought over some free edamame while we looked over the menu. Ordered the spring rolls and crab rangoon for apps. The crab rangoon was solid, but spring rolls were fried and didn't have a lot of flavor. My friend, who doesn't care for sushi, ordered the sweet and sour chicken, which she said was pretty standard. I ordered a Golden roll and a California rolls, both of which were excellent. The lady who was our waitress, I believe the owner, was a bit of wet blanket and pretty rude, otherwise service from the staff was excellent. read more

Ordered for pick up and it took them over 2 hours to prepare. Received steamed instead of fried pot stickers, the generals chicken was not spicy and I have never seen a crab rangoon that looked like this before. read more

SushiKo - supposed to be crab rangoon - Sushi Bars Near Me - Peoria, Illinois

I have been here many times before, the service wasnt horrible, the owner is super nice and friendly. I love supporting his business. Food is decent, the rolls are sometimes extremely big, like too big for 1 bite. The spicy baby octopus is my favorite appetizer, along with the tuna tar tar (which can sometimes be salty. The shrimp udon was a let down. The shrimps are like ant size. And they wont make the shrimp and tempura together. Its one of the other, not both. I think they could have... but they dont want to? Idk... the lady who served us at the time was older so she didnt seem to give a damn lol. She was not friendly she kept sighing everytime she walks around getting stuff we asked for. At one point she wouldnt come back when i needed more water so i got up and got myself the jug of water. Thats when she kinda pretended to care a bit and came over and apologized. Overall experience here 3 out of 5. Ill come here occasionally. read more

The Cali Roll came in piles, the Veggie Potstickers and Tempura are just ok. Probably won't eat here again. Edit from 2 hours later: The sushi made me sick. Don't recommend. read more

The easiest sushi romance I've ever met, what a menu! So much enticing options that all came out except for the eggrolls in amazing and tasty presentation and going down. Us three guys like to think we are raw fish veterans, hardly a hold back on opinion but this place made it way too easy. We summoned a huge appetizer of edamame, rolls, pot stickers, and Rangoon. I've never seen such a setup before! This stuff is what makes me thrilled to do thee reviews, everyone needs to come experience the awe and wonder of proportions as extra portions of the happy four apps presented happiness to us. It was a sight to down a crab deal, then nibble a soy bean, chomp on a pork package, it didn't stop! The eggrolls as mentioned were the weak part of the meal, veggie and seemingly rolled out of a box. Not quite a fresh tangy easy to eat mix of rolled up stuff I'm used to, but the others made up for it. A daring one among us went for sake. It was a party after all those appetizers anyway; interestingly it arrived warm. Can recommend trying it heated up, entirely different flavor sensations and evolving into more alcoholic acidity as it cools which is the bitter driving me away experience I recall from other sakes. And it was only to get better, the rolls showed up like an advertisement for peace and good will towards all mankind. It was difficult to know how to start so I took pictures and posted it to everywhere hoping to make many eyes jealous. Who cares how socially desperate I look when this food looks this good?! We all dove in and immediately confirmed we must get back here. The house special roll, what a surprise, a winner, one for the books, to judge all future rolls by. It's a must try. Get yourself here, try the chill atmosphere, nice staff, and goodness of the fish. read more

Sushi Pop is a restaurant located in a strip mall with lots of parking. As you walk in you are greeted with a smile and welcoming attitude. We were seated and offered drinks soon after we were seated. I loved the complimentary edamame. We ordered a Dragon roll which is eel, cucumber, avacado sushi. I loved the avacado flavor. The vegetable spring roll was full of fresh crunchy veggies. I also drank plum wine mixed with shot of sake which was delicious but a tad bit too sweet for me to have more than one. I was disappointed that they ran out of one of their Japanese beers. Also I did not like dirty dish tub sitting adjacent to the sushi prep table. However the overall experience was pleasurable with subtle background music and most other patrons eating quietly thus creating a relaxing evening. read more

This is still some of the best sushi in town, if not the best. This establishment used to Be Sushi "Popo", if you are not aware. The owners have not changed, I am told. They simply went through a facelift and name change to reinvigorate things, since lots of competition has established itself in Peoria recently. Things that make this sushi restaurant good: the rice is prepared in a very characteristic way, a method that is not shared with customers usually because of competition, but in the end gives you a sushi rice that is ideally moist and well-textured. The fish is good quality, they have a lot of maki flavors that remind me of when I lived back West. Another unique menu treat to this restaurant is that they do several Chinese dishes very well, in case you want to mix things up. You can get a relatively inexpensive Chinese lunch dish with some great quality sushi on the side. How many other places can you do that? The Chinese appetizers are unique and well-prepared as well. Food snobs are going to tease me for saying this but the rangoons here are great! Particular rolls I've enjoyed: the sunrise roll, the spider, and anything with spicy tuna in it. 4/5 stars for most sushi, 5/5 for the Peoria area. read more

This place had a cooler with bottled coke for dine in. That wouldn't be so bad but the drink cooler was the same cooler they used to keep the fish in. Place had buckets on the floor to catch the leaking roof and the waitress was annoyed that we were even there.. I wish I hadn't gone there. read more

Best sushi place in Peoria. The food and service is always fantastic. The Japanese man in the front is very friendly and courteous. Their hot food is also very good. I recommend the mango roll, the house, and caterpillar roll. They are all very good. So is the Seaweed Salad. Yum! You won't be disappointed. read more

Love their sushi and great customer service. My favorite was the chicken teriyaki sushi rolls.

The chicken fried rice was flavorful. Egg Flower Soup (aka egg drop soup) and Wanton Soup were also flavorful. Quick service. Would not recommend the sushi. Sushi should focus on the rice and fish, however this focused on all the extra. There were globs of Mayo on one of the rolls, it was used to stick the crunch on the other. Table was sticking. Facility also needs some work, bad paint, thick dust on decorations, and flooring breaking/detaching. Will try again because our friends highly recommend. Lower prices than other local restaurants. read more

Hadi is amazing! Best sushi in Peoria! The teriyaki beef is homemade and the best I've ever eaten

It's a touch expensive when one person pays for four people, but the quality is unlike any I've found in the Midwest so far, the sushi was great, and the appetizers were excellent. The service was fast, and I never had to wait very long for a drink refill. read more

If I could give this zero stars I would. I called an order for pickup and got a caterpillar roll and a dynamite roll with soy wrap. I have gotten rolls with soy wrap from shops all around Peoria with no issues. These rolls smell disgusting and tastes worse. I took one bite of both and then spit both out. My friend could not swallow it either. We called to let them know we were dissatisfied and they were rude and confrontational saying that is what happens when you use soy wrap. That has never been the case with any sushi I have gotten and they tried to say it wasn't their fault I didn't like it. This is not how you handle customers and I will be letting everyone know how disappointed I am with sushi popo. read more

Myself and 3 friends came for lunch today. I'd heard this place had the best sushi in town so we tried it out. Out of all of the sushi you see here, only about 4 pieces were eaten. Our sushi was warm and was NOT cooked. None of the ingredients were even cool. The dumpling sauce had vinegar in it too which is way weird. Over all, we'll never be back and we're super disappointed and our bill was so expensive and they didn't even offer to take ANY money off of the bill considering we didn't eat any of the food. Super disappointing. read more

Best sushi in Peoria, hands down! Love that I've found this place! I'll be going back there often!

Pretty sure it was the only sushi place when I lived in Peoria... And in the 4 months I was there, I only went here once. But after I did I wasn't inclined to go back. I don't remember it being particularly off-putting, but it just reminded me of how I couldn't wait to get back to Omaha to go to Sushi Japan... read more

The food is terrible, hard to swallow, never go back again. Hardly believe how such unacceptable eatery survive at Peoria - it's only Asian food restaurant probably read more

Giving 5 Stars because the sushi is so damn good. The wait was a bit long on a Saturday night, but they were extremely busy and the online carry/takeout orders really stress the sushi line. The master chef was humble and extremely pleasant, as always. Love this place, such good people. read more

Also called Sushi Ko, which is a little confusing. I went with my boyfriend and his sister and her husband. The sushi chef greeted us at the door as they were regulars and hadn't been in recently. The dining area was quiet and cozy and there was not much of a wait time for food which I liked. The fried rice sides are plenty big enough for two or more people to share. I tried all their recommendations for sushi rolls and was very pleased with what was served. My only complaint would be that they tended to fall apart, but the flavor was perfect. read more

EEEEEK. had a couple sushi rolls to go and they did not taste good even when i picked them apart.. still no good the rice was bad and the fish had like no taste im so disappointed =( read more

Owner with a real chip on her shoulder. I placed an order for shashimi. It looked like it was cut from someone with the knife skills of a 5 year old child. I talked to the owner and she told me to call my credit card company and hung up. Terrible service and worse food. read more

Now called Sushi KO. This place is HORRiBLE. Do NOT order or eat here. Where to start. Ordered through grub hub and we did not get 1/4 of our large order. Called the restaurant and they said they were too busy to help me with my issue. The food we did get was all terrible. The general tso chicken was so dry we were literally pulling threads of dry chicken that were like fish bones from our mouths. The sushi was shredded like it was cut with butter knives. No rice, chopsticks or appetizers we ordered were in the bag. The Dan Dan noodles were way over cooked and soggy and also tasted terrible. 8 of us eating and we ended up throwing everything out half way through the meal and cooking frozen pizzas. Avoid this place. read more

Sushi KO, formerly Sushi Popo, is another average sushi place in Peoria. Their hot and sour soup was packed with vegetables but too sour. My date raved about the baby octopus and enjoyed it. The spider maki sushi was good and fat, but almost too big to the point it fell apart before it even made it in my mouth. The rice in the sushi was a bit too squishy too. Shrimp udon: broth was okay but the few shrimp that were inside were tiny. I've never had Dan Dan Mein before. It was also disappointing. It was just a Chinese interpretation of spaghetti. It's worth a try if you are looking for sushi in Peoria but Sushi Popo is not that impressive. read more

This is the best sushi restaurant in Peoria and my go-to dinner place whenever we go out. Hadi, the sushi chef, makes everyone feel at home. The fish is high-quality and the rice is perfectly cooked and seasoned. Definitely try the sushi combo (the nigiri is amazing!), mango maki, spider maki, seaweed salad (yes, really!) and pork potstickers. They also have a huge Chinese menu for those who don't like fish! read more

I typically eat at Osaka or sushigawa but we decided to try this place today instead. My husband and I have lived and traveled all over the country and this was honestly the worst sushi I have ever had. The spicy tuna roll and spider roll were both supposed to be spicy but were just extremely sweet. The salmon sushi was overly sweet as well. The eel sushi was the only thing we actually enjoyed. My husband also had the general tso's chicken which was over cooked and very bland. I'd recommend sushi or chinese from Hy-Vee before I'd recommend this place. read more

First impression was not real good. Lady at register was not friendly at all! I did not get a choice for here or to go. I guess she assumes since I was by myself I wasn't staying. The sushi was average and the "nachos" were gross and very small portion. I would not recommend going there. read more

When I found out there was a sushi restaurant in the Peoria area, I was very excited. However, after we got home (we chose to carry out) and sat down to eat, I was soon disappointed. I ordered the 6 piece sushi combo, 6 piece nigiri and the choice of tekka or salmon maki. The eel and the miso soup that came with the combo was about all that was worth our $50 tab. The fresh fish a) smelled like fish...which everybody knows is never a good thing and b) some looked like it may have been partially cooked. The sticky rice was too sticky and they put too much in the nigiri. We also ordered shrimp fried rice and shredded pork dish. Both lack in flavor. Overall, I do not recommend this place if you are use to quality sushi. It was a learning experience and I am glad that I went so that I could cross this place off my list. read more

http://www.pjstar.com/news/x1850043023/Monthly-restaurant-inspections-released Here they are AGAIN failing their restaurant inspection. I think this makes the 3rd time. My fav comment is "chef smoking in kitchen" - perhaps ashes are the secret spice to their dishes. Isn't someone smoking in the kitchen of a restaurant illegal now? Those poor employees and anyone who decides to eat here. I don't order cooked food ever here because they were previously cited in their inspections for having "unlabeled/unidentified meats" and that to me in a Chinese joint is like an urban legend coming true. Seriously Yelpers, I recommend McDonalds over PoPo. read more

Probably the best straight traditional Sushi place in Peoria. They have a chinese menu as well, which is very good as well. The service can be decidedly slow at times. Which kind of sucks because the food is very good, but if you're in a hurry, this place will devour your extra time... This place can be expensive if you're a foody and want to try a bunch of different things, or you go with a bunch of people, and split the bill, all sharing the plates of Sushi. Some of the portions seem smallish for the price, but the sushi is usually very good. The staff are nice if not a bit slow moving at times. read more
