Such a cute place. The ambiance is very zen. Food was quick, fresh and hot! The salmon teriyaki was delicious. Crispy, but not dry. The glaze on it was also just right. A touch of sweetness. The scallop hand roll was OK. It was too much mayonnaise for my taste. The service was super quick and friendly. Id come back again! read more

The stir fry noodles were so soared in sauce I couldn't eat . The sushi had a spoonful of rice . Service is nice, but they need to correct the taste instead of dumping sauce on it. read more

This is our favorite local poki and sushi restaurant. We've been coming here for 9 years now and they always have something new while keeping all our favorite dishes on the menu. The lemon roll is so fresh and bright. When they added ramen, we were able to bring our non-sushi friends with us and the ramen was savory goodness. I noticed, today, that they have added Korean items to the menu. I will have to give those a try. One of my all time favorites is the Boom Boom appetizer. Something about the crispy rice and spicy tuna combo gets me every time, so tasty with a nice crunch! We love staying local and supporting our local business and restaurants. Poki, Ramen & Sushi makes it so easy. Grab one of their poki bowls and you will see! read more

I ordered a rainbow roll to go. Very disappointed. The fish did not look fresh and I ended up taking most of it off and just eating the CA roll. I won't return. read more

Service was friendly and prompt. My son accidentally knocked off his soda glass and they were quick to clean up. Food was so-so. We ordered Galbitang- beef rib soup. The meat needs to be more tender, simmer for probably another 30-45 minutes, it will also give the broth a deeper flavor. I had never not liked Ttokbokgi, until our order came out. It did have a lot of the fish cake slices, but the flavor and spice was just not there. Mom had the teriyaki salmon bento box with California rolls. The rolls were not seasoned right. The salmon was kind of fishy. My son had the Gyu don- beef bowl. read more

Our go to spot for all things Japanese. This place is a hidden gem. The menu is extensive with many options to choose from. Don't be fooled by the name, because there is far more than sushi and ramen to choose from.. even with some fun twists on classics. The curry udon is DELICIOUS! All sushi options are great. Service is exceptional. Whether it's dine in or takeout, they always do an amazing job. read more

Great spot for great price sushi! Lots of specialty options of the day. When we went it was black cod and uni Staff was so beyond friendly they said hi the second we walked in. Set up a table immediately with water and menus, chop sticks sharing plates and wasabi and ginger. We got 3 specialty rolls. The super crunchy was beyond massive and super filling. Had 3x the spicy tuna on top as well as additional shrimp tempura on top. Food was great. Atmosphere was well done very casual dining. Food and service was also very fast. Perfect for a quick bite or Togo food. They also had build your own poke bowl for there to to go. read more

So good! This place is so fantastic. It has delightful food. I love the Philly roll. And I like to get a Rainbow Roll and add cream cheese. The sashimi is good and they usually have yellowtail at an affordable price which has been harder to find lately, at least where I am. The service is good, and I moved so I miss my favorite sushi spot cause they knew me there and we had nice conversations and they were always really friendly. They are fast too. Like, usually you can call ahead about 15 minutes and your order will be ready and fresh!! 20 if there busy :) read more

I love this place! I work around the center of San Juan Capistrano, and this is my go-to place to get a poki bowl for lunch. I like that they serve generous portions of poki that is great quality. The couple that run the shop are so sweet as well, always greeting with a friendly smile when you walk in. read more

This is my favorite sushi spot! I always get the bad boy roll- it is phenomenal. I love that it is so fresh with spicy tuna and avocado. I also love their yellowtail submarine roll and their spicy garlic edamame. I know this restaurant also has ramen, bento boxes, poke bowls and a variety of other options. However, what I have enjoyed the most has been their sushi! Other than the amazing food, their service is excellent. The staff working there always greets us with a warm welcome and a smile. The lady working there is so sweet and has even brought us slices of oranges to enjoy after we finished our meal. The restaurant is so clean, has nice decor and plenty of seating. The prices are reasonable for the quantity and quality of the food you get. I appreciate that there is such a wonderful sushi restaurant in SJC :) read more

My daughter and I randomly came across this place at dinner time and we were greeted very warmly. We decided on poki bowls and asked about how spicy the sauce was. Instead of just giving us a verbal answer, the gentleman said "there's only one way to find out!" And came out with a little cup of the sauce for my daughter to taste before ordering. We thought that was such an above and beyond thing to do and we really appreciated the customer service. After we ordered and were waiting, we witnessed a number of really great acts of kindness and excellent customer service from various members of the staff. We also watched the woman put our poki bowls together, and she did everything with precision and care...it wasn't just thrown together. Now for the actual food review! It was absolutely delicious! The fish was superior in flavor and quality to the poke bowls we usually get at a chain poke place. The masago was super fresh as well...noticeably better than any other I've had recently. All the ingredients were great and we enjoyed our food immensely. Will definitely be back again when we're in the area! read more

A Must Try!! Everything was delicious and hit the spot! This is by far the friendliest Ramen spot I have been to. Reasonable prices, fresh sushi, and amazing staff from the moment you walk in. Thank you! read more

Stopped in as a little last minute dinner for my mom's birthday as we were craving some poke and we were very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food, the good service, cute decorations, and quick seating. The tonkatsu ramen and tonkatsu garlic ramen were delicious! The bowls came quickly and were steaming hot. Great portions for a great price. I will definitely be coming back soon! read more

First off, the lady up front was so sweet and I liked her service. However, I was not a fan of the small portions. Charging extra for avocado and then only getting one slice is just straight robbery. $20 is too expensive when I got a regular bowl. I recommend the poke bowl In ladera ranch next to EOS for cheaper and bigger food portions. read more

I have tried a good number of poke/sushi spots down in south OC over the last year, some better than others, but nothing has truly hit the spot until I found this hidden gem. Richard, who I believe may be the owner, has been phenomenal every time my family and I have came in! From remembering little things like specific sides and allergies to just providing amazing service, he has had us leaving more than satisfied with every visit. This welcoming energy goes right in hand with the ambiance of the restaurant. While more on the casual side, the restaurant brings top tier food with a cozy family owned feel. The salmon teriyaki was as tender as could possibly be, with the perfect amount of sweetness to the teriyaki sauce. The sashimi and poke bowl both tasted extremely fresh. We ended it with the curry ramen, which was a generous portion and on par with the rest of the food. With Japanese cuisine being one of my favorites I'm beyond happy to have found Poki Ramen & Sushi last week- so much that I've already gone back twice since my first visit! This place could compete with some of the best Japanese food money can buy. More than worth a visit if you're ever craving some sushi or a bento box. read more

When it comes to gluten free they are sooo knowledgeable! They won't even use faux crab meat in your rolls because it's not GF. They bring you your own aminos and do separate plating. Food wise nothing stands out but for a basic day to day place it's great. The sushi burritos are fun but not worth the buy when you want fish. I love most of the rolls here and for the price it's worth it. - the ex boyfriend roll is a top favorite of mine. Don't get their iced green powder tea but the regular hot green tea is wonderful. My husband gets the rice and meat bowls and loves them. read more

Service - My daughter and I went to the mission and wanted something different to eat. The thing is my daughter wants sushi and I wanted poke. Thank god this place exist. When we came into the resto, a young lady greeted us and took care of us rightaway. Very attentive too! Food - My daughter got the lemon sushi ( 8 rolls total ) she was so full nearly almost didn't finish her food. She loves the zesty taste. I got the Poke and OH MY GOODNESS! it was heaven! I know I know it may sound super exaggerated but not going to lie. The taste and the portion it was very satisfying! Yummy! Ambiance - The place looks vintage and reminds me of home. Very clean and organized. read more

I LOVE this restaurant. They have such a welcoming and friendly vibe here. The sushi is amazing and my kids love the poke bowls. We frequent this restaurant often because of the wonderful service and hospitality. Try their Alibaba roll and their Tuna Lovers. I also love their vegetable ramen. The garlic edamame is delicious. 10 out of 10 this place! read more

The staff needs to be properly trained to handle food. It is unacceptable to used one of no gloves serving sea food. Also I didn't see the staff washing her hands. No good. read more

Came on a Saturday night at 5:30. Was sat and waited on immediately. The rolls were large and the spicy miso ramen was good. I prefer a little more spicy and thinner ramen noodles but overall it was tasty. My 2 young daughters loved that the sushi chef made them a bunny out of a hardboiled egg and a butterfly out of a carrot. Great experience. read more

Food was amazing, I got the veggie ramen and flavor was perfect. Sushi rolls were also amazing. Great Service ladies were very friendly.

This is a clean establishment that serves fresh fish and poke. They have a variety of rolls on their menu along with specials. My friend enjoyed the poke and I ordered the fashion island roll, seaweed salad, and we shared the melting in your mouth sashimi. All items were fresh, maybe a little too saucy for me. I only want to point out that the sashimi was more of seared (3/4 cooked) albacore rather than completely raw like I'm used to. Either way, it tasted good. read more

Good sushi and fairly quick for a pick up order. We order a California Roll and Soft Shell Crab Roll along with 2 Salmon Skin Hand rolls. My wife ordered the Miso Ramen as well. Pretty good saying rolls but they weren't very well made. Kinda loose and fell apart a little too easily. Ok though, they tasted pretty good. My wife said the seamen was good and she'd try another one of the choices if we go back. Unfortunately when you order online there is no description of the Specialty Rolls and as you know if you've veered sushi every place has their own rolls and you have no idea what it based on the name alone. I went with obvious ones that I knew what I'd be getting. Didn't eat there but had nice staff and a decent number of tables. Maybe a couple of small tables outside but no heaters and too cold to eat outside without them. Close to home so we'll probably try a few more rolls next time and see if we'll be going back. read more

What a great option for ramen! Stopped here after a quick Von's run & ordered the Tonkatsu ramen. It was prepared quickly & it was super flavorful. It came with some fried gyozas that were cooked perfectly. To top it off, great customer service. I would definitely recommend for anyone in the area. read more
