    California Roll
    Jennifer V.

    Got my hubby his favorite for dinner - 2 California rolls and shrimp tempura ;) he said the rolls are like made into a burrito and he liked them both haha - good service and ambiance is super chill

    Had a little difficult time finding them but a drive around the parking lot we finally found them closer to the street side than within. The lady that took our order was nice but was very soft spoken when I asked questions. It was my first visit so I had to ask what the size difference was for the fries. We ended up getting 2 medium fries regular and Osaka, and a lion king pocket sushi. Inside they are a bit small setting with mainly tall table high chairs. I was unable to sit those type of seating and their lower table was in the entrance way but had chairs that said unavailable because it was broken. It was a big full inside so we sat outside out front where a few lower seats are available. I had no clue when our order was ready but luckily after it had been awhile, new customers came and when they opened the door I heard them call my name. Food was delicious. The Osaka fries were interesting but very fishy I would say. I probably won't order it again or maybe if I was sharing it. They have fountain drinks but I didn't see a meal deal so we didn't get a drink. Tons of parking near other businesses and the 2nd Chick-fil-A on the street while the other is closer to the freeway. I will be back to try other selections of pocket sushi

    Trio
    Sherri W.

    A frequent craving I had lead me back to Pocket Sushi but this time I ordered the Trio. It was filled w/Lettuce, Cucumber, Shrimp Tempura, Tuna, Hamachi, Salmon, Pickled Radish, Cilantro, this was exactly what I craved. Everything fresh & ordering was fast & efficient.

    Lion King and medium fries
    Shannan L.

    I am so sad I didn't try this place sooner! We were greeted as soon as I walked in and it is very clean and well lit. We placed are order and it was ready pretty quick. I order the Lion King and fries. My son raved about their fries and he was right they are really good. Crisp, not very salty and the perfect serving size. The flavors of the Lion King caught me off guard because I was expecting it to taste like regular sushi but I was wrong it was delicious. It was definitely worth the 40 minute drive and we will be back again.

    Lion King
    Jeff W.

    Nice little to-go sushi joint here, with sushi burritos/sandwiches. We have come here a couple times - the food has always been good and staff friendly. For me, I usually get two. This presents a challenge as one is normally not enough for me so basically lunch or dinner for me is about $25-$30. Since opening, prices have gone up over 50%. The Lion King was $8.50 and is now $13, and the PocketMon was $8.75 and is now $13.50. The PocketMon was pretty good. Shrimp and crab were tasty and plentiful. The dressing had good flavor. There was a lot of avocado- probably a bit too much. I had a large piece fall out from the bottom. The Lion King was better. I wish it was warm though as a normal Lion King sushi is baked. So it felt weird eating a cold Lion King. The salmon had good flavor and the sauce again was good. I would have given this a 4-star but it's gotten so expensive that it's cost prohibitive to visit often.

    Red dragon
    Billy L.

    I've been wanting to try Pocket Sushi for a while since it reminded me of Sushiritto. It is located inside a plaza and there was plenty of parking which made things convenient. I ordered the Red Dragon which came with spicy tuna, shrimp tempura, unagi, avocado, crunchy teriyaki, and spicy mayo. I asked to add jalapeños and the lady helping me said it would be twenty five cents extra but they would have to be on the side. I thought that was strange since I wanted them inside, so I just skipped it. My order came out quickly, in about five minutes. The sushi pocket was good but nothing extraordinary. It tasted like a regular sushi roll but with a lot more rice, which in my opinion threw off the balance. The flavors were there but a little muted. The price felt high for what I got. It came out to sixteen dollars before tip, and at that price I would rather go to a sushi restaurant and get a traditional roll. I think what you are really paying for is the convenience and the handheld concept. Overall I am glad I got to try it, but I probably would not go back. It was a fun idea but just not worth the price for me.

    Food is good, especially for the price here in the trivalley. I wish they were more flexible for substitutions, but I get it, they limit substitutions to stay efficient. Small place, so this is more of a takeout type of place.

    Mango madness
    Annie T.

    My bf first introduced me to this and I was hooked. Now, I love that I work so close to this spot. It's such a smart idea to create this and it's so good. My favorites are lion king and mango madness. It's so fresh, saucy and packed into the rice burrito. I feel though for $13, I'd want a bigger burrito bc after one, you still want another one T_T. I recommend getting a miso soup for after, so so good! The establishment is clean and the employees are nice and helpful. There are a few tables inside and outside for those that want to eat there. Highly recommend for others to check out :)

    Ordering counter

    Pocket sushi is an interesting idea. The owner was sitting an In and Out line and started thinking how he could do something "similar" for sushi. Well, they succeeded. I was impressed with their fish sourcing. From my experience, very few sushi places understand where their fish is from and how it has been handled from the time the fish left the water and served to the consumer. The owner explained the USDA/FDA process correctly. If you want traditional sushi, sashimi, or Japanese cuisine like Amakara or Stone Grill then this may not be your place. But if you want raw fish with a Japanese flair read on. Similar to some fast food hamburger places that give you the burger in a box Pocket Sushi creates a sushi roll that looks like a Mexican burrito with rice on the outside of the seaweed cover. This is an amazing feat. Think of a gigantic sushi roll that you can hold in one, or two hands, with a rice covering where the rice doesn't fall off and go everywhere. Like a hamburger, the roll is wrapped with paper that easily comes off. The roll is then placed in a nice paper box. This was easy to eat with your hand. Unlike a traditional sushi hand roll that looks like an ice cream cone, this looks more like a half-burrito with a layer of race instead of a tortilla. The burrito shape provides more space for the quality ingredients they use. If you want good quality fish quickly, give Pocket sushi a try.

    Crab and salmon pocket sushi
    Alan G.

    Overall updated rating: 3.5 Tried Pocket Sushi again and pretty friendly, efficient service and ease of ordering was unchanged. Created a custom pocket with hamachi + shrimp tempura with avocado, masago and spicy mayo and the rest of the usual fixings. The flavors were excellent overall, along with the wasabi soy sauce for dipping. The persistent limitation is the texture of the rice which was still mushy and not flavored as much as I prefer for sushi rice.

    Dragon-rito
    Tina S.

    Sushi burrito store. They're pretty fast and the ingredients are good and fresh. A bit small imo but enough to last through for a quick lunch break. Won't have the afternoon good coma. The place was very clean and workers were very nice. The offers came out super fast. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Part of a bigger parking lot.

    Dragon
    Lin M.

    This place is fantastic. I used to work nearby and get it occasionally for lunch. I still come by occasionally even though I don't work in the area. The services is great and quick. My pickup orders are always ready on time. I love that it has outdoor seating. The pockets are so great. My favorite is the Dragon with either Edamame or the Osaka Fries.

    HOLY MOLY. I'm so happy I found this place! So yes like the name -- they specialize in pocket sushi! You can either make your own or pick out of the signature pockets. It's located in a shopping plaza so it's easy to park & find. As soon as I walked in I was greeted kindly by one of the workers! She helped answer all my questions since I wanted to try everything! Shoutout to her! I ordered a Lion King pocket with gyoza as a side. I received my order so quickly. It was absolutely delicious, flavorful, and incredibly filling. The baked salmon was perfectly cooked. I appreciated that it wasn't messy to eat or unwrap from the paper. I can't wait to come back! 10/10.

My wife ordered sukiyaki and I ordered a 3 item bento box. I had gyoza, mixed tempura and chicken katsu with a salad, white rice and miso soup. I liked all three items in my bento: the gyoza didn't have a crispy bottom but good flavor, chicken katsu was tender with a nice deep fried coating and the tempura was fried nicely (light and crispy). My wife liked the flavor of the sukiyaki and the ingredients. My son's wife had a sashimi donburi with fresh fish and my son went with a three item bento beef teriyaki, mixed tempura and three piece nigiri. He said the Nigiri was fresh, tempura was fried nicely, not oily and the tempura was tasty. The Miso soup and salad were fresh and tasty. We will definitely go back. For a wide selection with fresh food and prepared after you order, give Kaki Sushi a try. Staff is very attentive.

I tend to shop nearby and have seen the restaurant but haven't been in the area during lunchtime until today. I did learn they also have lunch specials on Saturdays too, so I will be back with my husband next time. I walked in and ordered, and the lady was so nice and welcoming. My order was packed and ready to go without much of a wait, which was nice. It didn't take long, so it's very helpful for people on a time crunch. I got the 3 item bento box with katsu chicken, California roll, and sashimi. It also came with miso soup, salad, and rice. I got it to go, so I was happy the soup was included because I notice some restaurants don't always include soup on togo orders. The katsu chicken was light and seasoned nicely, and the katsu sauce tasted a little different than normal, so maybe it's freshly made. I wasn't a fan of the California roll only because I am not a fan of the whole roll chunks of imitation crab meat but it wasn't a full deal breaker. The sashimi tasted fresh with a nice, soft, buttery texture. I still think about their sashimi at times, it's up there with some of the best pieces of fish I've eaten.

I was craving some sushi for lunch after leaving the office so I stopped by Shinkai for the first time. I ordered takeout- the Hell Boy and Orange Ocean rolls for me and a CA roll for my toddler. I ended up eating some of it at the restaurant and they were SO yummy! Hell boy had toro inside and unagi outside with a dollop of sriracha - amazing. I can eat that buttery roll all day. Orange ocean had shrimp tempura and avocado inside and salmon with some umami lemon zest outside that made it a delicious standout. My server was friendly and quick, which was all I needed. Wish Shinkai was closer to me - I will definitely stop by again when I'm in the office!

We were initially not charged the 6 person autograt(18%), we finished up the payment after which left our tip. We were about to head out when the server starts motioning us to stop and comes back with a new check claiming "your payment was declined". We did end up checking and confirming that it was reversed but it turns out that they had worked furiously to reprint a new check with a 18% autograt and brought it back to us claiming "your payment was declined". Overall, we weren't as bummed about paying the 18% gratuity as we were on how it was conveyed to us. Anyways, getting to the food: Overall the rolls were pretty good(4/5). I was not a huge fan of the chicken karaage(2/5)and the vegetable tempura was pretty oily(3/5). The soft shell crab roll comes in a non traditional fashion of rolls(3/5). Bearing all of this in mind, I would give the food a 3/5.
