The fish tasted fresh, and the portions were massive. My friend got the shrimp and tofu bowl and really enjoyed it too. They have a lot of toppings to choose from, which I liked, and they even had purple yam, which made this poke spot stand out a little more. I also liked how the workers separated the base from the toppings and the fish, which kept everything fresh and easy to heat up if you're not able to finish the bowl in one sitting. Service was really friendly, and we were helped right away. Parking is easy since there are plenty of spots available, and there are a couple of seats inside if you want to dine in. Would definitely come back here for poke!

My server was really nice!…read more I got a large bowl to share and like that there's a brown rice option. For protein, I got two scoops of salmon, savory tuna and spicy tuna. Everything tasted pretty good and I was happy to find that avocado wasn't an extra cost. The only thing that was a little strange of the savory tuna. The cubes of tuna were a little bit like a gummy candy texture and that caught me off guard. Other than that, it was enjoyable.

One of the freshest--if not the best--sushi marketplaces in town! Yama Sushi Marketplace is a small…read moreshop that is always packed with locals looking to satisfy their sushi cravings, and after my first visit, I can definitely see why. The store offers an impressive selection of Japanese goodies, including ramen, condiments, fresh sashimi, and a wide variety of sushi rolls. There are so many options and combinations to choose from. If you are looking for sashimi, head to the back of the store where they have conveniently packaged fish sold by the pound, and they will happily slice it for you. Or, if you are in a hurry, you can grab their freshly made sushi rolls from the refrigerators. On my visit, I picked up ahi tuna, salmon, and yellowtail sashimi, along with California rolls and tuna rolls. Every piece of fish was incredibly fresh with a buttery texture and amazing flavor. The quality of the fish and the perfectly seasoned sushi rice were so good that I barely needed any soy sauce or wasabi. I only recently discovered this hidden gem, but it has already become a place I will be visiting regularly. The sushi is high quality, reasonably priced, and absolutely delicious. If you are a sushi lover, Yama Sushi Marketplace is definitely worth checking out!

I've finally visited all three (current) Yama locations!…read more I think you can definitely see the age of this location compared to the other two but it still has that old-school charm They have a good size market portion here but the refrigerated section with sushi isn't so abundant or filled, and the variety isn't as wide as the other two locations. I came around 5pm when I figured most people stop by after work or for dinner but I've been to the other two locations during similar rush-hour periods and they were well stocked with a wide variety. So I think that's the only downside to this location, their limited space. BUT that doesn't take away from the quality or flavor of the sush! I picked up an assortment of tuna, salmon, and mixed rolls. All were fresh and delicious with great rice and good fish portions! I brought these for a party and everyone loved it! Yama is still the go-to spot for "market" sushi!

They have a great variety of toppings, both standard and more unique to the traditional poke place, my favorites being their pickled radish and sprouts.

If you sign up for their app they give you a good amount of rewards, often times you can get a free avocado topping after stopping by here twice. The inside, although nothing super special, is clean and well-kept. I definitely would recommend stopping by here if you are looking for a good priced poke bowl!

I order two scoops, one was salmon & the other was tuna lava w/ half salad, half kelp noodles, though the kelp noodles did not taste fresh to me, something in my bowl had an old taste unfortunately. I did enjoy the texture of the noodles, everything else was good though, scoops of fish can be bigger. The Tuna Lava flavor had a mexican taco flavor twist which wasnt something I was expecting, I dont know if I enjoyed it in my poke but it was okay. Salmon was good, I enjoyed the wasabi lime sauce they offered. I came on a Wednesday afternoon and they had plenty of seating, not too packed. Place was clean and bright. Not the best poke I have had, but not the worst.

I've been to Kokoro many times but let me tell you they remodeled in January and the place looks…read moreentirely different. It's always been good but now they really stepped up their game. The ambience has improved tremendously and everything is so cute with a full sushi bar. They also have a greatly expanded menu and are offering many items that you won't find elsewhere. One of those that I tried is the castle tower. This is composed of 3 fired wonton wrappers each topped with blue crab, avocado slices and a little bit of red onion. Presentation is very nice and the blue crab was a generous helping. Honestly, everything was really good and I cannot wait to go back.

Came here for dinner for the first time and got the 3 item bento dinner value menu (I chose the…read morepork cutlet, fried white fish, and sesame chicken). Value wise it is definately very value priced. It seem like their lunch also has a good bento value as well. Parking is massive since it's part of a shopping plaza, though the restaurant itself seems a bit out of place and can easily be missed when you're driving by. They do have a really wide selection of rolls. The other person in my group got the spider roll and truly enjoy it. However, it was disappointing that there wasn't much variety for non-fried food in the bento combinations. A good bento box should be a balanced meal, but pretty much my whole meal felt fried. Also, the place doesn't fully represent a traditional Japanese aesthetic, it feels alot more like a Korean twist on sushi. Overall, great for the wallet and good rolls, but just okay on the balance of the bento meal.

There was a little bit of a wait to get our food though because there were only two employees there and a whole bunch of customers for them to help. They were moving very quickly and efficiently, but they just seemed a little understaffed. The store isn't too big and felt a little warm despite having both ceiling fans on. Everything looked really clean inside and all the ingredients were in a refrigerated display. They were very generous with the portion sizes! I got a small bowl, but they really loaded it up. The food tasted really fresh and tasty too! 10/10 would come again

I thought the fish tasted very fresh, nicely dressed in my sauce combination, and was nicely diced. I do wish my bowl were a tad saucier, as the bottom half of my bowl/purple rice was on the drier side. Besides that, the salad and other toppings were a nice, crunchy complement! (Unpictured) I thought it was interesting that this place also offered poke burritos, spam musubis, and to-go plates of sushi rolls! I'll definitely have to come back to try those out. The service here was fast/efficient, and the girl who helped me was nice.
