    Money bags ( think crab rangoon) , Sannin bowl, coconut water.
    Graham L.

    Food, superb Service - quick Ambiance - bright and woodsy. First time here on 6/12/25 and boy was i impressed, like holy poke bowls batman! Appetizer - money balls - think extra creamy crab rangoon, smaller than most but like 9 of them Sannin Bowl - Matcha rice, seaweed, scallions, cucumber, poke shoyu, salmon, ahi tuna, sweet corn, seaweed salad, crab, masago, ginger, fried garlic, crispy onion, and sesame seeds. Crunchy, yummy, salty and savory all in 1 bowl! Warning - very filling, may encounter leftovers!

    SANNIN is a modern gem in KCK serving up poke bowls, sushi, and ramen in a cozy, welcoming space. The vibe is chill, the space is clean, and the staff is incredibly friendly -- you feel right at home as soon as you walk in! Their poke bowl selection is amazing, with plenty of signature options and a build-your-own option that includes unlimited toppings -- yes, unlimited! It's perfect for anyone who loves to customize. We tried a variety of items and were impressed with every bite. The Money Bag appetizer (crispy wontons filled with cream cheese and crab) was a standout -- so crispy and flavorful. We also had the veggie egg rolls and fried rice, both delicious. Now the sushi... wow. We sampled the Lion King Roll, Baked Lobster Roll, AAC Roll, and the Kansas City Roll. Each one had great flavor, freshness, and presentation -- you can tell they take pride in what they serve. I also tried the Curry Ramen, and it totally hit the spot -- bold, comforting, and just the right amount of spice. If you're a foodie or just love a good meal, definitely add SANNIN to your list. It's a fantastic new spot with great vibes and even better food.

    Sannin certainly does not offer a warm and welcoming feel by any means. Ordering is done at a kiosk and your food is delivered to your table in a generic cafeteria style dining room with only a nod. Water, plastic utensils, chopsticks and napkins are self serve as is the table busing when you are finished. The busing trays above the trashcans had not been emptied in some time and the place was fairly empty on a Sunday afternoon. The one self-serve that I did love was the miso soup dispenser and it was free. The pricing is economical with 3 small rolls of 8 pieces each was $15 - California, spicy crab and salmon were my 3 rolls on Combo B. I added a spam musubi for $3 and their version of crab rangoon for $8. Nothing stood out, but nothing was subpar and the value was there for an economical lunch. Certainly not a date spot or in the top tier for Asian go-to joints. Three stars and an extra one for free unlimited miso.

    Greenwashing alert- there is only a spot for landfill and dish return- no composting or recycling

    Good seaweed salad and solid nigiri! I had the ikura, mackerel, eel and yellowtail, all were good. I dig the miso soup machine, and that it's complementary! I took off a star because there is an unclear waste station where you bus your items, and there is definitely some green washing going on. They claimed to recycle and compost, yet there is only a spot for landfill, and some buckets for busing. Meanwhile, the water cups are all flimsy single used plastic, and the only utensils available are single use, even if you are doing dine in! So the sign above the busing station claiming to care about the planet is not to be taken seriously. Until they switch to glass glasses and silverware and actually put out a legitimate composting bin, I'm not buying that they are trying to do right by the environment.

    When entering, I browsed the menu and paid on a tablet. It was very convienient. Once arriving at my table, it was bright and I loved the decor. My food came out within 5 minutes, the service was very fast. I would definitely reccommend to a friend!

    Bento box and salmon roll

    Came here during lunch and they were not busy at all. Food was fast and the inside has super cute decor. I got a bento box and a salmon roll for under $20 and they also have free miso soup.

    A pretty decent spot for lunch or a takeout order. I like the menu here and always go with the Ride…read morethe Wave and think that the salmon in it is super good. The wasabi and a really nice kick and I just love the flavor profile of the bowl. The avocado is another really good part of this bowl as I think it pairs really well with the salmon and the rice. I feel that the serving size was a little smaller than I expected as I chose the largest option. It didn't seem like that big of a bowl for the price. One thing to note here is the small parking lot next to the building. It's just part of the deal with going to a place in the River Market. If you can't find a spot in the lot, there are a few others close by. One other thing to note is the business does not allow changes to its bowl recipes on app orders.

The fish taste fresh, there are many options for toppings and it literally taste like a walk on Lewers (street in Waikiki). I didn't go in store, I doordashed however the employees provided me with utensils, napkins and soy sauce which I did add to my poke bowl. I can't say how the restaurant necessarily feels but based on this poke bowl, like a salty, warm breeze in a tropical paradise, again Hawaii.

There is a door and stairs up to the service area so if you have trouble with stairs it may not be a great option. The service was quick, delicious and fulfilling. The tab was $30+ for miso, poke, and Japanese soda so a little pricey. But I expect being 1 block from the T Mobile center their rent might be high so the tab seems fair. The ambiance is brightly lit, J-pop and KC pop decor.

    I really wanted to like Pokesan, but overall this one landed right in the middle for me…read more First, a few things to know before you go. The restaurant is on the second floor and requires walking up a flight of stairs. I did not see an elevator, so that may be something to consider if you have mobility or accommodation needs. More concerning, the bannister going up the stairs did not feel fully secured to the wall. Hopefully that is something they can get fixed ASAP because it definitely felt like a safety issue. The surrounding neighborhood also felt a little sketchy to us. We visited during the day and were fine, but personally, I don't think I would choose to visit this area at night. As for the food, it was a mixed bag. The veggie toppings tasted fresh, the portions were appropriate, the sauces were good, and they were very generous with the toppings. The crab was actually really good! Unfortunately, the rice wasn't what I expected from a poke bowl. Instead of sushi-style rice, it seemed like regular steamed rice and was more al dente than I prefer. The salmon also tasted off to me. After one or two bites, I decided not to eat any more of it because I wasn't comfortable taking the chance. The service setup was probably the strangest part of the experience. You sit down, a server comes to the table, and you fill out a paper to build your poke bowl. They take the paper and bring your food to you, but you get your own drinks, silverware and napkins. It felt like an awkward hybrid between counter service and a sit-down restaurant. I'd personally prefer they commit to one or the other. There were definitely things I liked, especially the crab, toppings and sauces, but between the food inconsistencies, the unusual service setup and some concerns with the building itself, this wouldn't be a repeat stop for us when we return to Kansas City.
