A lot of sweet on sweet. The rolls plus rice is a large amount of food. If on a budget this would be a great spot to get some sliders. For the price $6.99 it is a deal. Maybe next time I will try something else. The chicken was just ok. Nothing to make me run back tomorrow.

I'm gonna be honest, I'm not usually a big ahi fan and so I tend to avoid going to poke places that…read moredon't have salmon as an option but this place has definitely changed my mindset. I came in on a Saturday afternoon and ordered the poke plate with half spicy ahi and shoyu ahi. The price was a bit steep at around $25 but when I tell you, I completely demolished it within 10 mins... I got it to go but it smelled so good that I had to eat it in my car still parked right in front LOL. The ahi doesn't have an irony taste like other ahi I've tried from some other places. I think I definitely prefer the shoyu flavor though! I'm definitely coming back and bringing my boyfriend to try the other plates they offer!

Spam musubi was just OK and felt like you could definitely make it at home versus the 4.50 you'd spend. Service OK nothing outstanding because it felt more like a café than a restaurant and it makes sense because there was no inside seating. They have outdoor seating which was nice. Love the decor and the story behind this place. I decided to come here for my birthday and it was a nice treat because I was looking for more Hawaiian spots in San Diego. The mac & cheese was great I wish as a side they added more furike seasoning on the rice. Again, these are just small changes but overall the food is great solid and everything tasted delicious.

Super stoked to have found this little poke spot!…read more Had the sushi burrito with salmon, tuna, marinated tuna, spicy crab, seaweed salad and all the other fixings! Wrapped and ready to go!

You can build your own bowl or burrito. You choose the base which is either sushi rice, brown rice, salad, or burrito. Next, you choose preferred sides, then yout choices of protein. Finally sauces and toppings. They also have chicken katsu, gyoza, fried Calamari, and their specialties. We got five scoops poke bowls, fried Calamari, and macaroni salad. The poke bowl was very fresh, savory, and really delicious. They added generous quantity of base, protein and toppings. Their macaroni salad was creamy, rich and flavorful. Fried Calamari was crispy and well seasoned.We had a great dinner. My review is mainly for the food. Everything was well packe. Next time, I will stop by Poké Chop to get the whole experience.

I was placing a large takeout order for a family trip this weekend and had one of the worst…read morecustomer service experiences I've had in a long time. The employee who took my call (Jason) was extremely short, dismissive, and condescending from the start. When I called back shortly after to add to the order, his attitude only got worse. Instead of being helpful, he spoke to me in a way that felt rude and unprofessional, as if I was inconveniencing him by simply trying to place or update an order. At one point, I asked to speak with a manager and was told there was no manager available. Given the tone and lack of courtesy throughout the interaction, we ultimately decided to cancel our entire order. I don't feel comfortable spending money at a business where customers are treated this way right off the bat.

I chose this Hawaiian BBQ restaurant based on the great reviews. But I was disappointed after…read morehaving the BBQ Chicken plate. The chicken was not cooked like the photo on the wall menu. I prefer when the meat is charred and it wasn't. The flavor was just ok. The macaroni salad was bland. The plate includes 2 small scoops of steamed rice and finely chopped raw cabbage under the chicken. The chicken was freshly made. I was the only patron at the time and I waited for 15 minutes to receive my order. Look for suite 112 because there is no sign on the building. Sadly, I will not be returning.

The majority just don't appeal…read moreto me and I'm a little scared at the staff not understanding how to properly handle raw fish. This restaurant though, I go all the time for lunch and my wife is surprised. This place is packed and goes through tons of poke and it's so fresh and tasty. I have no qualms or that normal kind of uneasiness I would feel with other places. These guys know what they are doing and the fish is fresh, smells good and tastes amazing. Although the pricing may seem expensive they give you a lot of food for the money. So it's definitely worth it. I normally get a bowl with choices and usually get one salmon / one tuna variety of the day. Always yummy so far. I haven't tried their cooked dishes yet but maybe I'll give those a try as well and update my review if I do. For now the poke is why I come here and it's definitely something that stands out and is exceptionally good.

If you want spam musubis, you'll have to order them at the register and they'll give you a pager when it's ready.

I ordered takeout online. I got the oxtail; it was succulent and juicy. I got plantains (nice and…read moresweet!) and greens. The plate worked so well with the rice and beans. I also got the jerk chicken. I wasn't a fan of the spices (too spicy) and the chicken was dry. I wish the chicken was on the bone. Lastly, I tried the beef patty. The crust could have been flakier but the beef was well-spiced and worked with the spicy but fruity hot sauce. Jamaican/Carribbean food is very hard to come by in CA, so I would certainly do another takeout for this special food.

Still chewing it like, "Sir... who hurt you?" A little bromelain in the marinade would've saved us both!! On the bright side, service was fantastic!!

My favorite stop on my recent trip to the San Diego area…read more Encinitas Fish Shop was recommended by one of my local SD work colleagues. I grabbed an Uber after work on a Thursday and headed north 11 miles. As I arrived at the Fish Shop, I could smell the goodness inside and saw the line waiting to order. The restaurant is on one side, with an open bar on the other. Ordering is as simple as 1, 2, 3. Pick your fish, pick how you want to consume it (plate, sandwich, salad), and pick your sides and drink. I went with my work colleagues recommendation of a blackened sea bass sandwich with onion rings and a Marg. That choice was FANTASTIC!!! You seat yourself once you order and place the buzzer given to you by the counter person on the unit on your table. Although busy, there were still tables available (bar and restaurant, plus out front). As the NBA playoffs were on, I sat inside. Everyone working here was friendly and as I already stated... my meal was the best I had on this San Diego visit. A bonus was a gorgeous sunset just 3 blocks down from the shop. I will be back to Encinitas Fish Shop when I next visit San Diego.

It had been a while since I'd had oysters and it sounded really good. Years ago, when I lived in…read morePacific Beach I used to go to their Thursday $1 oyster night at that location. I moved to North County and a few years later they opened Encinitas fish shop. I have been for the oysters in the past but it had been a long time. I looked it up to make sure they still had oyster night and sure enough they do. The price is now $1.25 but that still feels like a good deal. They had 4 different types to choose from. There was only about 7 people in front of me when I got in line including a family. There was an older couple ordering and it took about 20 minutes for them to complete their transaction. The rest of the line moved ok after they were done, but I probably waited about 40 minutes just to order. I ordered 3 of each kind, a dozen. Then I went to get water. They were out of ice. I sat in the window seating and waited. It took a bit, but it was a nice day so I didn't mind too much. A girl came out calling names but it was very difficult to hear her. I finally heard my name and she dropped off my oysters. I asked for more cocktail sauce and she left to get it. She brought it back but immediately left and never told me which oysters were which. I had to flag down another employee and he told me which oysters were which. In the past, I haven't liked some of the choices, but this time they had a whole different selection and I liked all of them! They were so good and fresh. I don't know why I waited so long to return. I'll definitely be back for more soon!
