At 7:24 PM, we were told it would be "2 minutes," but after waiting several more minutes, we decided to leave. There was also no greeting when we arrived, and it didn't appear to be very busy -- only two people were ahead of us. The wait felt unnecessarily long, especially with limited acknowledgment or communication. It honestly felt like there may have been some stalling since the shop was closing at 8 PM. I was really hoping to support this place, but the lack of service and communication made it difficult to stay.

I love how many different options they have as well. The service here is quick too! Overall, I recommend stopping by this spot if you are in National City!

It gets real busy for lunch! I don't know about dinner, but for lunch I recommend to order online. I always get everything except for pickled ginger (gari) but it's so much volume! I sometimes leave 1/3 for dinner. This place is bright and clean, even though it has fish smell, (of course because they sell fish!) everyone works here is nice too.

We got the large bowl which in my opinion was a great value for the money. We had half and half white and brown rice with 1/2 tuna and 1/2 salmon and the quality and quantity was good. They added a ton of additional toppings we expected to be extra, but was included. It was enough for both us, saving some room for dessert at another local place (though they offer some desserts there). The place was well lit and fairly clean. Not sure how different each location in the chain is run, but we would come back here again.

Usually, the bowl is packed where they have to smush down everything with the lid! I spent about $24 something for THAT?! My husband had surgery last Thursday and even though he was upset with the order, he had to eat it. As he is still healing and I was still working, we could not go back to the store. To top it off, there are no options to talk to an employee at the shop when I called the number to complain. This is so disappointing as we love the food there.

It was just a small shop where you order & go! The salmon & tuna were super fresh + flavorful... no fishy taste at all. Around $18 a plate, I thought it was pretty reasonable for poke these days. And the macaroni salad?! So unique & delish. It was made with thin angel hair noodles instead of traditional macaroni, paired perfectly with the poke. Portions were just right. Can't wait to come back next time I'm in SD!

We waited an hour in line to eat from here and, sadly, they were out of multiple things by the time…read morewe got in and it was our turn to order. We still ended up getting multiple different kinds of poke to try. My guy and I both agreed the poke was good and the quality was fresh, but it really wasn't anything special. I also thought the sauce to fish ratio was off (too much sauce); my guy agreed but doesn't mind it as much as I do. I don't know what it is, but it is just missing that special something to truly make it special poke. I'd eat it again if I was there, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

She ordered before me and my friend and they served us our food and got everyone else in line, others but not hers. Very disappointing and upsetting when I let them know they didn't even apologize they refunded but didn't acknowledge their mistake. They seemed upset to refund her taco so she ordered next door and got her food from a Thai place in less than 5mins. Lots of places that have potential but places don't last long. Not much good places. Kikos was the spot. Ambiance is nice but they don't allow dogs.

Which is kinda shady. They have rice or rice noodles. Then you've got all the typical proteins. Spicy tuna, crab, octopus, the usual. The usual veggies, plus a boatload of crispy toppings and sauces. My typical order comes out to: Rice noodles, ahi tuna, octopus, with seaweed salad, cucumber, beets, topped with fried onions, fried garlic, golden miso, fire shoyu. It's basic. But damn, for $16 you get a lot of food. Almost enough that I cannot finish. I definitely get better food here, for cheaper than I would next door at Five Guys. It's fast, affordable (in comparison) and you get a good amount of chow. I dig it.

To the tune of a $20 difference. We weren't advised of the difference when I ordered it on the phone - and we didn't realize it until we were at home going over the receipt. We could have ordered the food to be delivered instead of using gas to get the food and yet I'd be paying less for it. Ironic right? I sent an email immediately to the restaurant that night ( March 25th) inquiring about the price difference and to date have not heard from anyone at this location. Highly disappointed at this situation. Suggestion: Be careful on how you order.
