Classic Hawaiian $23
Yiuing P.

Little bit expensive for a poke bowl, but the quality of the fish is very good, making up for the price. Really great ahi, nice fresh texture. Love the Mac nuts, although if it was crushed, might blend in the sauce better. Impressed with the spam Musubi, teriyaki sauce and tamago roll. Very great flavor 7/5 Friendly staff, who took the order. Nice dining area and bathroom.

I loved the inside of the restaurant! The staff is so friendly and helpful if you have any questions and the food was so fresh and ready within 10 minutes that I was there! I can't wait to come back again! 10/10 my fav poke place so far in the 209

I don't know if I would say worth it. Food was good lots of options. It feels more like a fast food place almost trying to get you out quickly, yet we're slow with the food. It is nice they have a student, first responder, and 65+ discount. But kind of bummed Nurses are not counted as first responders. Overall Id just say 3/5.

It took a long time to get our food we ordered @710 and got our order @ 750 it was sat and they seem to have a lot of pick up orders .We had the dragon roll and the Philly roll they were ok ...... staff is friendly. They are missing an opportunity. Seems like they want you to pay before you get your food. I never tip upfront missing an opportunity for the waiters and waitresses get tips. I'm sure customers would like to tip after their experience... oh I know I think this will be a spot will come for our lunchtime I forgot to change not for dinner.

Poke (Regular)

My first time coming to The Rice Corner was great! I was greeted warmly when I walked in the door, ordering process was super easy and my order came out in less than 5 minutes! My poke bowl was AMAZING. They gave very generous portions of everything I ordered in my poke and the tuna was flavorful and fresh! I Will definitely be returning soon.

Salmon capacious. The soy panzo  sauce worked well with the richness of rhe salmon. Fresh and buttery salmon slices.

Finally a sushi restaurant worth visiting. Food was good, flavorful, and fresh. From Poki bowls to sushi it was all good. Family and I had to try some apps which were delicious. Wife had a poki bowl special. And salmon Kama for mom and i. Wish my Salmon Kama was grilled rather than deep fried. Can't wait to try other dishes. Worth coming back too. Keep it up TRCA team

Really happy we found this place! We live in Merced and drove here just for the sushi and we'd do it again! We created our own poke bowl and ordered two rolls on the side. Everything was fresh and the fish seemed to be really high quality! Will definitely be returning.

This brand new poke place just opened up in my area so I was very excited to take my parents for lunch. I will say it feels like they are still in the process of settling in because the walls aren't fully decorated or painted yet but the bathroom was nice and clean You order at the counter, I love that I can write down and build my own poke myself. It's easier that way and I see all the options. They are have a cool selection of drinks. Where it loses a star to me is pricing though. It's very expensive compared to similar restaurants in the area. There are a ton of people working so the food comes out fast. But there isn't much service. You just grab a table and wait. I liked my bowl, I think the ingredients were fresh and good quantity. Honestly too much to eat in one sitting but not enough for two meals. If it was a little cheaper I'd come back more often!

Now Rainbow Roll cost $19.54 no wasabi, no ginger. And comes with a fork.

Reviews are largely positive. People highlight the fresh sushi and poke, friendly and helpful staff, and a clean and welcoming space.

My client told me about the Hughson Asian Kitchen serving really good Chinese food. (Modesto has…read moreNONE) So today I decided to try it and the food was absolutely amazing! I ordered all my favorites, way too much food but love left over Chinese... The service was excellent, the food was served piping hot and so fresh! I will definitely be back but next time I will try the sushi... I'm so happy to have finally found excellent Chinese, thank you!!

You would never think that a town like Hughson would have a great sushi place like the Hughson…read moreAsian Kitchen! The restaurant is nestled in the cute downtown area of Hughson, their main street. Upon walking in, we were greeted by the staff and seated right away. We were there on a Thursday evening about an hour before closing, but the restaurant was packed with customers. The menu has an extensive selection of Chinese and Japanese dishes. I had the Bruce Li roll which had tempura shrimp topped with crab meat, salmon, tuna, spicy mayo and unagi sauce. I also 2 pieces of the Hamachi (yellowtail), miso soup, and spicy edamame. The fish was some of the freshest I've ever had - flavorful, definitely sushi grade, and I could tell that it also wasn't previously frozen due to the color and texture. The miso soup and the spicy edamame were well-seasoned and delicious. My nephew had a combination plate with orange chicken, broccoli beef, and chicken fried rice. One thing to note that was really nice is that the restaurant allows you to create your own combination plates, they're not set items with no substitutions. When our waitress brought my nephew's combo plate, the food looked freshly cooked and delicious! He ate every bite! If you're ever in Hughson, try the Hughson Asian Kitchen - the friendly staff and tasty food won't disappoint!

Food was so good. Service is top tier. Great restaurant to sit down or call ahead and take out.read more

We had a Sweet Deal gift certificate for Katana Sushi and decided to use it. They recently ran…read moreanother Sweet Deal, and after walking by around 1 PM on a Saturday and seeing literally only two occupied tables, I had a feeling this place might be struggling. Unfortunately, I'm starting to understand why. First, the prices are ridiculous, especially when you add a mandatory 20% service charge to a to-go order over $100. My wife ordered takeout, not realizing there would be a 20% service charge added. When I arrived and asked what the charge was for, I was told it was essentially a tip for the kitchen because it was a to-go order over $100. Let me get this straight: because I spent over $100 on a to-go order, I'm required to tip the kitchen for preparing the food I ordered? We didn't dine in. We weren't waited on or catered to at a table. When I asked if I could opt out of the service charge, I was told I could not. So I paid an additional $19.50 service charge just to pick up our already expensive food. Then there was the food itself. My son and I each ordered a Dragon Roll, and both were disappointing. You could clearly see that the eel was overcooked, and the rice was dry. Neither my son nor I enjoyed the roll. When you're charging these kinds of prices, the quality should match. Unfortunately, I still have another $100 voucher that I need to use. Once that's gone, so am I. As I'm writing this at 5:50 PM on a Saturday, there are only two occupied tables inside. Between the ridiculous prices, inconsistent food quality, and a mandatory 20% service charge on to-go orders over $100 that wasn't clear when ordering, I can understand why customers may be choosing other options.
