    Large poke bowl. Yummy!
    Jami T.

    My daughter got a gift card for her birthday so we decided to treat ourselves. We both got large poke bowls. They were generous with the portions on proteins and all the yummy things we chose. Everything was fresh and tasty. My daughter was especially happy that they have albacore as a protein choice. The guy (owner?) who helped us was really nice and it was an easy peasy ordering experience. We are in and the restaurant was decorated simply but nice. We will 100% be back!

    Those four pieces is one scoop of fish.

    Establishment was clean and fresh. I ordered a regular bowl half salad half rice. The scoops of fish were so small. You got maybe three or four pieces in each scoop not what I was expecting. The worker asked me what sauce I wanted and I replied with whatever the spiciest is. She just pointed to the list. I said yes the spicy one. She finally took out her headphones. Which by the way touching your face or hair while making food a big no no. Got the rest of my toppings and checked out. Found wilted pieces of salad and overall flavor was subpar. Between the food and staff I won't be back

    This is where you give your order

    The food was delicious! Service was really great and they made great suggestions. Although the spicy was not as spicy as my husband would like he really liked his food! There were more options to add more spice. It was a beautiful day to sit outside and enjoy our meal. If we lived in the area, we would come every day!

    I'm not sure how we have not found this place sooner. I've been to this shopping strip a number of times but didn't notice it being here. We we're looking for a poke place to have takeout dinner one night and we were in northern Carlsbad. We had this place in our list to go to but got stuck going to another for some time. This time, we checked our list and decided to try something new and I'm so glad we did. I can't recall all the items I put in my bowl but I had a half & half with greens and chips. The sauce made my bowl so delicious I look forward to come if back. They even gave us a sauce sample for us to try. All so good! They had been in the area for a few years and they goodness they survived the pandemic. This place is at the top of our poke bowl outing now in north county.

    I ordered the large bowl and it was delicious! This little establishment has a variety of add ins and generous portions. I've got back 3 times and will go back for more.

    Regular size bowl with ahi, crab, onions and spicy ponzu. Lots of fresh toppings. Drizzle of spicy mayo on top. Mm good!
    Vivian R.

    Super fresh ingredients, good service, casual takeout place. Great value: I go for the more classic poke bowl ingredients: ahi tuna on white rice with crab, onions, cucumber and spicy ponzu sauce with sesame oil. For toppings, I add masago, green onions, seaweed salad, a little ginger, furikake and sesame seeds. Tonight I added a little sriracha mayo on top. PERFECTION. It's next door to the gym, so it's convenient for a quick dinner.

    This is such a diamond! It looked dead on the outside and so I was afraid that little traffic meant raw fish sitting outside for too long. But I was wrong - this place was delicious and the man serving the food was so helpful. Knew exactly what to put together for me and had great recs. Will be coming back for this!

    Regular bowl with avocado and lots of bells and whistles. Love this place!

    Ask the Community - Wicked Poke

    What do they offer for kids?

    Poke bowls!

    Can you order online?

    You can order via the polular apps for delivery/pickup but they don't have their own online ordering system as far as I know.

    Are the prices reasonable?

    Reasonable is subjective. I come here when I want a decent bowl of sushi with greens (low carb diet). It's not a $5 burger joint. For one person you're looking at $8-12 on average. The fish is fresh however and I love this location.

    Do you have any bowls that are gluten-free?

    We offer custom poke bowls you can make with gluten free ingredients. For your sauce option, our current seasonal sauce of Honey Wasabi Vinaigrette is made with gluten free ingredients.…

Remotely hidden in the back of the shopping plaza on El Camino Real & Mission Ave, is this gem of a small ice cream shop, Ocean Rainbow. One could easily drive right past them because of their small signage on the exterior. The shop is very small and see maybe 10 people. Yeah, very friendly service that is excellent and fast to greet and offer a free sample. This ice cream shop has a very large variety of flavors that are native to Mexican culture. They have ice cream scoops, milkshakes, water-based popsicles, sherbets, sundaes, chamango, banana splits, icicles, elotes, esquites, Tostilocos, popsicles, shaved ice and a whole lot more. You can find flavors like guava, rice, pistachio, coconut, Oreo, cookie dough, rocky road, mango, mamey, cactus fruit, pine nut, MAZAPAN, chamoy, tamarindo, burnt milk, Gansito and even tequila. There most popular item is the Fresas Con Crema. Prices are very reasonable and I got a 3-scoop chocolate waffle cone for $8. They also have fresh-made aguas frescas that are made to-order and esquimales too! I highly recommend checking this spot out the next time you have a sweet tooth!

The shop also sells a variety of candies and snacks, which makes it a fun place for kids. Since it's located next to a bar, there is often live music on Friday and Saturday nights, creating a lively and enjoyable atmosphere. Parking can be a bit difficult, and getting in and out of the parking area feels quite tight. The shop is also filled with a lot of merchandise, so the space can feel a little cramped. Overall, it's a fun spot to grab some ice cream by the beach, especially if you enjoy a lively atmosphere and live music on the weekends.

The restaurant is small, cozy, welcoming and aesthetically pleasing. It isn't well suited for larger parties as most tables are tables for 2 unless tables are pushed together. They do have patio seating and heaters outside, but it didn't appeal to me being so close to the street/loud traffic. Gabriel checked us in, seated us, took our order, served our food and waited on us for majority of our visit, I would give him 10 stars just on his impeccable service. The food though? The food was AMAZING!! Everything we ordered was the best we have ever had anywhere. The buns were very kawaii (and we ordered ever single one to try). The fillings were savory, but we also loved their seasonal panda bun with ube filling while the kids preferred the nutella bunny. Best chicken karaage we've had by far, the coating almost tasted like it was rolled in kinako powder. The ramen broth was "chef's kiss" with so much flavors, the crab rangoon were jumbo and the filling was delicious, but the chicken katsu was also the best we have had anywhere (including Hawaii). The breading was just top tier crunchy while the chicken was thick and juicy. There isn't one bad thing I could say about this place, from the service to the food, I would make the drive out here again. Super duper, highly recommend, don't sleep on this little place, you'll regret it!

Since I'm a lover of information, I looked up "Harumama". It's a combination of two words: the Korean word haru, which means "day," and "mama". Together, it translates to "mom's daily food". The name reflects the restaurant's mission to serve dishes prepared with the same love, care, and attention that a mother gives to her family's everyday meals. How lovely is that?! Anyhow, I was able to find street parking and walked into a clean dining space with a nice atmosphere. It wasn't too busy. Again, the staff was very attentive and provided stellar service. My food came out pretty fast. I loooved how my Drunken Noodles had the right amount of chicken and peanuts. Overall, another fun flavorful time. I'm still a Harumama fan. I can't wait to try more dishes. I highly recommend this location to the Yelp Community!!

Nearby to the outlets in Carlsbad, Legoland, the Flower Fields and Costco it is a great casual place to grab a bite. I have been here twice so far and both times on weekend afternoons.

The windmill food hall, as of Aug/Sept 2026, has about 12 or 13 vendors to choose from. We like to grab a drink at the bar and then choose from the different offerings where we can mix and match from all different cuisines.
