I got to (re)appreciate this business that's in my direct neighborhood today…read more I don't quite recall when the last time was when I utilized this restaurant. I wanted something super quick and yet something of quality (as I was headed my way to my side hustle later in the afternoon.) Asuka Ramen and Poke, all of a sudden, hit me with a thought, "It's been a while since I last used them for a good poke bowl." In a way, it was an opportunity for me to appreciate it for the first time in a while so I did just that. They use a deep (large) bowl for the Build Your Own poke bowl (this is the only size) for to-go. When I asked for "half and half" for the base (white rice and greens), the young man behind the ordering counter generously pressed the white sushi rice into it. He then placed some green leaves on one side of it. "Looking good" I thought. For the protein, I chose salmon, tuna and yellowtail. For the rest (such as sauce etc.) I don't quite remember what I got me and yet, this young man sure wasn't anything close to "stingy" (lol)! As to show his appreciation for my business, he built my bowl with precision and generosity. I like the fact that they have one size for to-go poke bowl (this simplifies the process on their end and our end.) At the flat rate of $16 (unless you get additional protein which is $3) is also reasonable for the size. I got the impression that this is a business that they simply don't operate for profit; they operate for the social responsibility's sake. And of course, this above-and-beyond young man didn't fail to forget to ask me if I would need utensils or drink. He gave me everything I would need. Once I got to my job site, I parked my car in the parking lot and started devouring my beautifully tailored (to my preferences) bowl. The fresh ingredients, the way it was built, and the overall volume of it, it was impossible for me to find a single reason why this was one of the best poke bowls I've had in the recent few months. That was when I came to appreciate how lucky I am to live just up the street from this tiny and yet mighty poke place. I need to visit this place more going forward.

Really great place to get some Japanese food. I was skeptical at first but this place hit the…read morespot. Beautiful decor and very open. Parking was a bit of a pain but we managed to find a spot. The gyudon was on point. It wasn't saturated in mayo or teriyaki sauce, and the flavor were really good. Both ramen were delicious too. I ordered spicy and it wasn't overly spicy. Perfect. My wife really like the takoyaki. I rushed to get a pic before she ate the last one. The cashier was very welcoming and helpful. Overall I highly recommend coming here. Well worth coming here. Recommendations: -Thicker blinds on the southern side of the place. The sun was unforgiving when we came in haha. -Spicy mayo for the chicken kirage would make the dish pop. -Shichimi Togarashi pepper for the tables. It would have been really great to have for my gyudon. ...yes, I did ordered gyudon to go. It's for my son... :D

But this happened all 3 times. The service was friendly but hurried, the food tasted fresh, but the portion sizes have been ridiculously small. Full story I ordered a large bowl, which comes with 3 scoops of protein. Got 2 very measured scoops of tuna, and half of scoop of salmon. Then I asked for "lots of cucumber" and got one serving of it. Ask again, a couple more pieces dropped. Said, I'll pay for extra, no problem - then got an "all right" and got another serving. ‍ Asked for extra seaweed salad, immediately said, I'll pay extra - got one properly portioned scoop. Asked for masago. Was charged an extra $1 ‍ (not something that has ever happened to me at other places). Got my food to go, came home.... My bowl was only 3/5 full. See picture I know things are tough, but if I have to pay extra to get cucumbers... and AFTER I pay for extra toppings I still don't get a FULL poke bowl.... Hmmm. Cannot. Will not recommend. There are other/better options less than 10 minutes away.

We finally got to check out this neighborhood spot! We were super excited to have a new restaurant…read morenot a chain restaurant in our area. We wanted to try everything so got a bunch to share for the table. We ordered octopus balls, cream cheese wontons, fish cakes, ramen, chicken katsu curry and chicken teriyaki. I was very impressed! Everything was great and presented beautifully. I really liked the octopus balls and the teriyaki chicken. For dessert we tried the crepe and it had all the layers. So well done! We had a great server and she was very responsive to our tables needs! I really hope this location does well! This location is right off Arapaho and has a large parking lot outside. This location also has nice clean bathrooms and a nice seating area. No wait list for dining here.

I had a spider roll which was absolutely delicious ( I ate so quickly I forgot to take a picture. It was fresh and crispy. I also ordered the appetizer crab spring roll. They came two per order and overstuffed with spring salad mix. The ratio was way off I would have preferred less salad mix. It was hard to eat because of the amount of salad mix inside. The crab was imitation. Crab that had been shredded. My date had the all you can eat sushi which he said was very good. He tried a variety of nigiri, rolls, and tempura. His favorite was the orgasm and the rainbow roll. He said the masago nigiri was very tasty. The restaurant closes at 8:30, however, they close the kitchen at 8:00. They ask for last orders at 7:45. The food came out pretty quick and was all fresh. This was our first time visiting this establishment. We both agreed that this place is 4. It was decently priced. We chose this place on a whim and were satisfied with our decision. It's a small restaurant with close seating. So if you're looking for something romantic this probably isn't it. If you want something satisfying and tasty go here.

This is a small place in a strip mall and we were hopeful it would have decent food for the price. There are two separate menus and they have quite a few options from apps, rolls, soup/ salad, to noodles & specialty items plus, they also offer an "All you can eat" sushi promo too! We sat at the bar. We noticed our server was the only one on the main floor and he was busy with many patrons and working hard. Started off well with drink orders & then we placed our main meal items. I had requested fresh Kizami and there was much confusion with this, but it was resolved and I was charged extra ( which was fine). Got their Joy Salad which was presented beautifully and was fresh, crisp and delicious. Dressing made it! Had the fried veggie tempura which again the sauce was very good. Went with their Godzilla that has spicy salmon, soft shell crab, and avocado. It was ok. The rice was rolled extremely tightly and it was very dense which took away from the quality/value & flavor combinations within the roll. Presentation was nicer than the taste. Our server was managing many tasks & felt he was attentive under the circumstances. The open kitchen concept could be more appealing (updated in every way) and the staff behind the food prep counter could be a little more enthusiastic and maybe engaging with customers instead of having their heads down and only having interaction with one another. A cleaner environment BOTH with personal appearance and that of a clean food prep area. The outer perimeter with the decorations could use a good dusting & wiping away the cobwebs. I didn't catch their wall sign until we were leaving. This was blatantly bold- asking patrons to provide a 5 Star review on any social media platform & receive a free mochi. Not sure how that even works, but this is not appropriate or allowed on Yelp in any form or fashion to request a particular top notch score for a free product. Buying reviews goes against their rules & community guidelines. This is not a place we would return and just not up to the standards of what we are accustom to in our area.

Came in during slow hours and was greeted right away by a nice lady, she was great and made sure to ask me how i preferred each dish when it comes to sauce/spice level/protein choice and even let me sampled their sauces all of which was great! After ordering and paying at the counter, I filled my fountain drink cup and sat down in the couple tables that they had, wait time was not bad at all and they even waited to make my poke bowl to go AFTER I finished my dine in meal which was great and I really did appreciate that! 5/5 I had siomai appetizer which was really good and the suace that came with it really complimented well! It was delicious and easy to eat that I had to fight myself from ordering a second order hehe. 5/5 The tonkatsu ramen was so delicious and the broth was so tasy, I picked spicy and the spice flavor was just right. All the ingredients complimented well and I finished the whole bowl, looks like the previous customers who came in also loved their ramen so it must be very popular! 3.5/5 I also ordered their salmon bowl to go which was decent, nothing too fancy, I think we didnt read the ingredients that well so next time we will customized it so we can enjoy it better but not bad at all. We will definetely come back for more if were ever around the area. Wanna Poke was a great spot with hearty ramen and serviced by friendly, helpful, and considerate staff!

Chinese pop music plays over the speakers and it's decorated with Asian artwork, a money plant and a really cool fish tank with various goldfish swimming around. The analog clock on the wall was kinda art deco and it was accurately displaying the time. I'll say that their spicy Tonkatsu soup base is wonderful and the noodles perfectly cooked and tasty. I'm not a fan of corn or spinach in the soup as those seem to be cheap fillers. The half eggs in our soups were hard boiled and not the normal medium-soft egg with the tasty rich yolk. :( They don't put any straw mushrooms in their soup and the shrimp I got were overcooked and not the tastiest. Hubby got the pork in his tonkatsu and it was incredible. Our fried wontons were great and the seaweed salad very good. So some things were great, others were not. I LOVED the darling plates with cute sayings and might come back to sample the poke dishes.
