I chose sourdough, avocado, cucumber, pickled red onions, and glaze balsamic vinegar. It also comes with an egg on top and a salad. I got my egg over hard. It was cooked perfectly.

There's a huge lot, so stopping in for lunch couldn't have been easier. The staff was super friendly. They worked quickly. They were accommodating while I built my bowl. The restaurant was also really clean, which always makes a good first impression. I ordered a small bowl with salmon and octopus. Both were incredibly fresh. The portions honestly surprised me too. Even the small bowl was filling. One thing I really liked was the customization. You pick your sauce first. Then you decide how spicy you want it. A lot of poke shops don't let you do that, so I appreciated having the option. It made it easy to get exactly what I wanted. For toppings, I went with edamame, corn, masago, mandarin oranges, and pineapple. I'm a sweet and savory girl, so this combination was perfect for me. Everything looked fresh. Everything tasted fresh too. I really enjoyed my visit here. The fish was fresh. The portions were generous. The staff made the experience even better. I just wish it was closer to where I live because I know I'd have this place in my regular rotation.

I was in the mood for poke but wasnt in the right direction to get to the Japanese markets in Kearny Mesa so I fired up my Yelp app to see where along the route home I would find a good poke location. I wanted to go to Hawaiian fresh seafood in Poway but it was going to close right when I arrived, so I chose this place as it has better later hours. This location is in a strip mall but dont let the looks of this place deter you. The regular plate comes with 3 proteins and lots to choose from and I was quite overwhelmed. In the end, I choose tuna, salmon and seared tuna. I liked the tuna and salmon but will choose something else than seared tuna next time. I had half rice and half greens, and I can't do spicy so the guy helping me just added some sesame oil and ponzu for me. I dont know how he knew but I dont like any of my fish drowning in sauce and he knew that without even asking me. I got a bunch of veggie toppings as I love vegetables. Pile on the radish, cucumbers, edamame, corn, masago, seaweed salad, green onions, furikake! Overall, this was a great poke spot and portion size generous but you are paying $20 for the dish which includes taxes and tips. Id def come back again!

I especially loved the specialty rolls with the fresh fish on top, spicy mayo, and all the little toppings. They definitely don't skimp on the fish, and the portions felt worth it. We ordered a few different rolls for the table, which is definitely the way to go because there were so many good options. Everything tasted fresh, the presentation was beautiful, and nothing was drowning in sauce. The restaurant itself has a pretty casual atmosphere, so it's an easy spot for a sushi night when you want really good food without anything too fancy. I'd absolutely come back and try more of the menu.

If waiting were an Olympic sport, this restaurant would be taking home the gold medal every year…read more I've given this place chance after chance over the last year, hoping each visit would be the one where everything finally clicked. Instead, it's become a masterclass in patience. The employees seem to have discovered the secret to unlimited break time because every visit they're either in the front or the back enjoying conversations while customers stand around wondering if they've accidentally become invisible. When I judge a sushi restaurant, I keep it simple: miso soup and a basic roll. If you can't make the opening act exciting, I'm probably not sticking around for the encore. Unfortunately, the miso tasted like someone waved a seaweed packet over hot water and called it a day, and the basic rolls had all the excitement of eating cardboard with a gym membership. Then there's the outside food policy. Apparently, if your toddler dares to nibble on a chicken nugget from next door while the rest of the family orders sushi, the Food Police are ready for action. You could walk in wearing a tuxedo made of hundred-dollar bills and order the entire menu, but one tiny bite of outside food? That's apparently the culinary equivalent of a federal crime. The strange part is that the restaurant actually has potential. The problem isn't the building... it's the complete lack of urgency. Watching customers wait while staff casually chat feels less like dining out and more like watching a sitcom where everyone forgot they're supposed to be working. After a year of giving this place more second chances than a reality TV contestant, I'm officially done. If you're in Escondido, do yourself a favor: spin around, point in a random direction, Google "sushi near me," and you'll probably find a place where the staff remembers customers exist. I genuinely wanted to like this restaurant. Unfortunately, the service disappeared faster than the flavor in the miso soup.

Everything was delicious and full of flavor! We wanted to keep trying more, but we were so full we felt like we were going to burst! The ice-cold beer and apple sake were perfect with the food. On the way out, we grabbed lychee and coconut boba to go, and both were so good! The servers were all friendly. We left around 6pm because we had tickets for The Odyssey. When we left, the restaurant was completely packed, Had such a great time and will definitely be coming back!

The service is consistently great. They always make us feel welcome and this time they took care of us even though we came in right before closing. We ordered three sushi rolls, but honestly they never stood a chance. We ate them so fast I completely forgot to take pictures. If you're a sushi fan, get the Dragon Crunch Roll. It disappeared from our table in record time. We also ordered the house special fried rice, chicken teriyaki ramen, beef and chicken yakisoba, and the Korean popcorn chicken. The fried rice was packed with flavor and had a little bit of everything. The yakisoba was delicious, the ramen was comforting, and the Korean popcorn chicken was perfectly crispy with a nice little kick. It also came with miso soup, salad, and rice, which was more than enough food. Nothing here is overcomplicated. It's just good food, good portions, and genuinely great service every time. When we're trying to decide where to eat, Three Go Sushi is usually the answer. We'll definitely be back. Hopefully next time I'll remember to take pictures of the sushi before it's gone.

We also got the dragon roll, spicy tuna roll (which was ACTUALLY spicy), and the salmon avocado rolls, as well as the salmon nigiri. All of the food was delicious and very reasonably priced, and worth the trip. Additionally, a huge thank you and kudos to the staff for being so kind and warm about our excitement watching the World Cup matches that we're playing while we were eating. They were very sweet and understanding, and didn't rush us at all, which made it much more enjoyable to take our time and savour the food and the game. Overall this is a great spot to grab sushi and enjoy some quality time with friends or family, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a good Japanese and sushi restaurant!

One waitress was giving people the wrong food and not paying attention at all, she was just sort of walking around giving people the wrong orders. Problem was I had time to just sit and watch the mess. I wanted to order the poke bowl but I couldn't decide if I wanted the salmon or tuna. I asked the waiter what was freshest. He went to ask the kitchen and came back with "both arrived fresh today". Liars!!!!! I ordered the tuna.... It was previously frozen (should have just told me that) and very fishy smelling and tasting! The rice at the bottom was in a POOL of dressing... It was terrible!! I have never had an issue with this meal! My husband ordered a Philly roll. The rice was way too sweet and it just didn't taste fresh, we left 4 pieces on the plate! To add insult to injury, it took FOREVER to get our food! The other customers were also having issues with the service and getting their food. We left hungry!! $60.... Flush! I have noticed a decline in quality of the food the last few times I've eaten here. I might try one more time. This used to be our favorite sushi place!

It was SO good that we will come back soon even though we live like an hour away. Sad news is that they're closing in November :( So go get your food and drinks before they close down. It was such a great place to relaxed before we hit traffic after the Safari Park! And they're super dog friendly too! Bonus point for sure! Even though we didn't have our dogs with us.

Maybe we just came in on a bad day (or maybe we weren't treated well because we aren't regulars), but the service my family got was terrible. When we first got there we had to wait 15 minutes to be seated even though there were 20 empty tables and no line in front of us. Then when we were seated it took 15 more minutes just get our drink order. 2 other groups were sat after us and they immediately got water, wasabi and ginger on their tables. 10 minutes later we finally got our waters and put in our appetizers and main food order. The table behind us ordered after us and they got their appetizers inmediately within 10 minutes of them putting in their order. Then the table in front of us ALSO got their appetizers AND rolls. We had to call over a server just to ask where our miso soup was even at. 20 minutes later we finally get the soup and wings. And 15 minutes later, the rolls finally came. The other 2 tables already finished their food and were paying and we were just barely getting our food. The only thing saving this review is the food. The food was delicious and I'd say worth the price, but why were we treated so much differently than the other diners? The other 2 tables were in and out within 45 minutes and we were there almost 90. We didn't even order much - just 2 miso soups, chicken wings, and 3 rolls. That shouldn't take 1.5 hours to make. The place is clean and in a nice area but I don't think we will be returning here again.
