Maricris R.

Came back here after awhile for a family Sunday dinner. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The waiting room was converted to a private room, which I think is a good idea.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] FIFA was playing and it was a 2-3. Service was fast and good as always. We miss the servers we had in the past. The new one forgot to give us the little plates. The food was great, I love the mussels, salmon, chicken wings as I am a non -sushi eater so it's wonderful they have a vast array of food on the menu. The serving is not like before, it's less but I understand the economy is affecting only the quantity and not the quality. Overall always good place to eat AYCE Sushi. We had a sushi counter and one guest ate 50 plus pieces! Weekend piece is dinner price for both lunch and dinner. I almost made another tip as there's a blank line on the receipt only to find out that gratuity is already in the check, so keep an eye on that. Sushi Okoku is still a place to go to when craving for sushi and more!

Pretty decent spot. Great sushi menu with exciting fusions. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Looks much bigger from the inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

This is honestly the best sushi spot in the Inland empire. Does sushi always taste really fresh. The customer service is always amazing. They always come back refill up your drink always bring the food really fast. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The environment is always really good.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I would recommend it to all my friends and family.

Rare visit to Riverside but this place was recommended to us. Such a nice venue. Roomy with a modern decor. Of course we opted for the AYCE option. All the sushi was fresh and very good. The rice to fish ratio was on point. The nigiri was also proportioned perfectly. Not too much rice, just enough to fill you up. The service was excellent. The staff was always checking in on us. They always topped off our waters and made sure we were ok. Overall, a fantastic AYCE sushi spot. Definitely a top tier restaurant!

For my first time, it was a great experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We had lots of fun watching celebrating people's birthdays through dinner. They turn of the lights and put on disco light and music. They bring out a candle and dessert to celebrate the person. Lots of fun and so cute![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was great. The employees were nice, fast and always checked up on us. The food was fresh and lots of it too. Definitely worth the AYCE! I'll be back again.

Sushi Okoku was an amazing sushi buffet experience (see below for individual reviews). You get the full rolls and cannot ask for half but the choices are great for different preferences (raw, cooked, no rice, tempura, etc.). During the meal rush, it can be a bit loud but overall ambience is great for a family/catch-up meal with friends. Servers were kind and on point with picking up empty plates. There were a couple of orders we didn't receive that we waited for and did not know were out of stock until we followed up with our waitress. Would definitely recommend following up if an order doesn't come timely or I would encourage Sushi Okoku to add this to their menu. 6/5 - Salmon/Seared Salmon Nigiri. This was the star of the show. The best thing about this AYCE sushi spot is the fish/rice ratio. The chefs do not add too much rice to each sashimi and you can feel comfortable ordering many servings. The fish is also fresh and you won't be disappointed. 5/5 - Scottish roll. One of their new rolls and brings a great combo of flavors from the salmon and crabmeat to the texture of crunch and softness from the avocado. Definitely give this one a try! 5/5 - Albatros Roll. I was a fan of all of their "No Rice" rolls as it doesn't make each roll feel too heavy. The albacore pairs very well with the fried onion. The usual crab meat, shrimp tempura, and cucumber makes this a very solid choice with unique flavor. 4/5 - Ultimate Salmon Roll. Not as much salmon to live up to the name and felt like there was a bit more pepper than desired but still makes for a great roll that you can order. If you like seared salmon in a non-nigiri form, you can get it here! 4.5/5 - Honeymoon Roll. Your regular salmon topped California roll without the rice. Always a classic to get if you love salmon with the nostalgic California roll flavor. While there's nothing too special about it, it won't disappoint! 4/5 - Angie's Roll. I felt that the salmon was a bit over-baked but it still came as a generous portion with a great combo of flavor. You get your baked salmon and scallop flavor combo which if you haven't tried you absolutely should! Not pictured but can't recommend enough: Orange Blossom and Salmon Lover. These no-rice rolls put salmon flavor to the max! You get a variety of salmon texture with the sauce/lack of sauce and are well complemented by the avocado/crab meat/jalapeno

Been to many AYCE sushi places and this one is above average. Pros: service is quick and there's plenty of variety to choose from. You have the freedom to order anything you want as you have an iPad where you order them directly to your table and photos are provided for everything. Plenty of seating. Cons: waiters are prone to stop by less because ordering is done by tablet. Some of the Mexican rolls were extremely lemony, making them inedible. They were somehow out of fried calamari and fried shrimp. The teriyaki beef appetizer was inedible. Because of the variety and great pricing, I give this place four stars.

I've been to this location long ago when it was named something else. Sushi Okoku is next to America's Tire Company and offers $32.99 AYCE lunch. If you appreciate Mexican Sushi, this place is for you. Half their menu features jalapeño, habanero, pico de gallo, and/or agua chile. Berlin seated us and the order was placed on a tablet. The service was excellent and there's plenty of spacious seating. The food was delivered promptly and incorporating technology to streamline efficiency was evident. We had the Super Mexican, Jessica Albacore, and Yellowtail Habanero rolls. I also ordered a few pieces of Sashimi including Agua Chile Tilapia, Mexican Fusion Tuna, and Mexican Fusion Yellowtail. All was tasty, fresh, and bursting with flavor.

Vivi V.

My husband is not a big fan of raw fish but he admits he loves the AYCE lunch served here. There is So much variety of appetizers and we like the Mexican fusion spins on sushi and sashimi. We think about this place often and wish we didn't live 3 hours away. Or maybe it's better we live so far so that we don't go too often The iPad ordering system is so convenient and food comes quickly. Service is prompt and courteous. Parking in the lot is easy and free.

Liz M.

A little disappointed in some. The last round didn't come out and we ended up paying and leaving. The onions where nothing like before, where there were tempura and thinly sliced. They are now small bits of what tasted like dehydrated onions.

Mikaela B.

One of my go to's! A genuine loyal customer to them, with their top notch prices, and quality! I would highly recommend their seared salmon and spicy tuna crispy rice! Dining in, you are ordering off an iPad with pictures and descriptions so you know exactly what you're getting. We always opt in for take out instead, since we enjoy ordering a little bit of everything and sharing without stuffing ourselves to the max! They have 50% off rolls for to go orders, that we use to try everything we can. Our personal favorites are the golden tiger roll with cream cheese, shrimp tempura, crab! Overall sometimes their quality is a bit spotty some days, but I frequently order here all the time. Would still highly recommend.

Rolando P.

By far the best sushi and ACYE in the area! Have the all you can eat and it didn't disappoint. most of the roles were half size of a regular size roll. Which made it better in my opinion, because you could try many different roles and not get stuffed on just a few. The service was great from start to finish. The servers were very attentive they cleared the tables very quickly and the food also came out quickly as well. Great variety of roles and each one tasted different so it didn't taste like you were having the same role with just a different type of sauce or topping. I highly recommend this place Check it out!

Elizabeth T.

This place has pretty good sushi and a good all you can eat deal. Their appetizers can use some work. The service here is really good and I love their ordering system. They use individual tablets at your table so you don't have to wait for a waiter to come and take your order every time.

Im VERY disappointed in the service I got here when I came with my family. First, the waitress rarely came back to check on us, I had to ASK for different waiters to take our dishes back everytime they passed by. NO ONE cleared our table unless I asked. They'd even bring food without saying anything and just leaving it on the edge of the table for us to reach over. They also screwed up on my orders multiple times but I didn't make it a big deal and yet when we ordered shrimp tempura, a shrimp tempura roll came and they couldn't even take it back telling us they'll charge us. What the hell was that about? They made MULTIPLE mistakes on my order and I let it go but they couldn't and would have charged us?! Unprofessional, HORRIBLE customer service. ADDITIONALLY, all the rolls, sushis rice were so damn soggy and mushy. It was DISGUSTING. I'm NEVER coming back. Above all this, they charged us 18% gratituity for ALL OF THE ABOVE. If I were you, I'd go someplace else. This place is a complete joke. read more

My mom and I came here for the all you can eat sushi and had an amazingly delicious time. Their fish is fresh and the sushi has the perfect amount of rice that won't get you full asap. Highly recommend their Mexican/Latin fusion sushi if you're looking for an extra kick to your regular sashimi/sushi. My favorite is the seared tuna ceviche sushi roll!

Amazing service and sushi. Not too busy at dinner time on a Tuesday. Kelly and a few servers all took their time to help us out. They have lots of sushi rolls to curb your appetite. Warning the habanero mango roll is definitely extra spicy. It's too spicy for me. Bring on the water. They have soy paper rolls too. And have 2 unique rolls that have strawberries. Lots if you are like my brother who likes shrimp. Plenty of parking too. read more

Food was simply AMAZING!! I've been to sushi restaurants all around the world, from New York, London, and even far out to Tokyo, and everything served here is excellent! I 100% suggest the simply yet classic tamago sashimi they have here. The quality is on par to those served in Japan, which I appreciate. Special shoutout to our waiter and waitress, Gabi and Nelson!! They're the BEST people who will make sure you are fed well! The waiters and waitresses are so quick to deliver the food, and they make sure you are in great hands. Their customer service is unbeatable in the entirety of Riverside. Inside, the vibes are great as well. Whoever's in control of the aux also deserves a shoutout. Keep playing those bangers man!!

My experience at Okoku Sushi was not one I expected. I hoped to have a nice Christmas dinner with my family of 7 (2 of which drove 2 hours to get here) but it turned into a frustrating night where I was left unhappy. For starters, they brought out food that wasn't ours. The food was left out until they came back 20 minutes later to take it back. On the other hand, they took forever to come to our table. I understand what being busy is but you can at least come to our table. We happened to do the all you can eat and they took 30 minutes just to come and pick up the paper. After another 10 minutes they brought out only 2 rolls. It took and hour and a half just for us to get all the sushi from our first round. Including the fact we didn't get 3 of the rolls that we ordered. After just simply wondering why we hadn't got our sushi, one of the workers claimed we hadn't marked it on the paper when we saw it clearly marked. Another 30 minutes passed by without them picking up the paper for our second round. After asking a worker why all this was happening he said he could take of 1 of the all you can eats ($30) even though we were missing 5 rolls at this point. After receiving the check I noticed it to be over $300 even though we only got 7 all you can eats ($30 each). This means we would have only spent $210 gratuity. After asking what all these unnecessary expenses were, they said they could take it down to $234. Still frustrated we left. On the way out I gave a glance to the wanna be manager and he said "bye" in a nice tone. I repeated it back knowing this snarky wanna be was being so unprofessional. One of the people from my party made the point on how the customer is always right and how this man was being fairly unprofessional. He had a snarky look in his face as we began to walk out. The best part of my night is when he responded to when I said merry Christmas by saying "Merry New Years." Overall the food was okay but I don't think you should leave an all you can eat sushi bar still hungry. Including the fact the management was bad. By the end of the night we had been given 10 out of 26 of our rolls. Less Okoku more like Ocaca. read more

You could also sit at the sushi bar, if you prefer. And there are a variety of tvs. When we went, it was featuring the world cup; no audio and some tvs had captions. Music was playing at a good level. Menu features lots of options. Some of us were craving sushi and the other half had bowls (beef bulgogi, spicy pork bowl, orange chicken). Our meals were served around the same time and waiters regularly checked on our refills and if we needed anything. At one point, music turned loud and lights flashed, to celebrate someone's bday so something to be aware of that they do. Overall, our dining experience was satisfying. I was a big fan of the salmon carpaccio and the super sexy bowl. The fish tasted fresh and portions are large so you get your moneys worth. My companion did mention that their bulgogi had more onion than meat which was visibly notable. Definitely aim to visit again and will recommend this spot to others.

Very disappointing experience today…read more This was actually our second chance for this restaurant. We used to enjoy the food, but previous visits were plagued by incorrect orders because staff repeatedly chose not to write anything down. Today, my husband found a hair fried into the batter of his popcorn lobster roll. It was wrapped around the piece of "lobster," making it clear the hair was there during preparation--not something that fell onto the food afterward. It also raises concerns about basic food safety practices, including whether proper hair restraints were being used by whoever prepared the meal. He quietly brought it to the staff's attention, and they simply took the plate away. No apology. No follow-up. To make matters worse, we were still charged for the contaminated roll. We mentioned it again when paying and, again, received no apology and no offer to remove the charge. Mistakes can happen. What shouldn't happen is dismissing a legitimate food safety concern and charging customers for contaminated food without so much as an apology.

I do wish they offered more condiments on the table so you can adjust the broth to your liking--spicy, savory, etc. My food took a little while to come out, but it ended up being worth the wait. The price was also a big plus: $13.99 for a bowl of ramen, a sushi roll, and a drink is a great deal. My wife ordered two rolls--the Salmon on Fire and the Caterpillar Roll. Both were tasty and comparable to what we've had at other sushi spots. We also tried the gyozas, which were average. Customer service could use some improvement. Our waitress wasn't rude, but she seemed rushed and tried to take our order almost immediately after we sat down. Since it was our first time, we needed a moment to look over the menu. Overall, the food and value were solid, but the service and small details could be better. I'd rate Sushi R 91 a 3.5 out of 5.

Their coffee, tea, and baked goods are fantastic, but the main reason I love this place is because it's very cozy and the perfect place to read, study, catch up with a friend, or go on a date. They have a special, themed menu that changes every month. There is almost always seating available. They have a small book exchange, often sell local art, have cute merch, and just opened up a bakery right next door with extra seating. I'm kind of a snobbish third-wave coffee person and although this place isn't trying to be that way, it still is my favorite spot because of the overall vibe, how genuinely kind and down to earth the baristas are, and how comfortable it is. A lot of coffee shops are so brightly lit and trying to be hipster still in 2026, but this place is just kind of homey and the classic cozy coffee shop we all want to go to. So if you're a hardcore coffee connoisseur and are looking for the highest quality coffee, this might not be your spot. If you're looking for something with yummy drinks and baked goods with a chill environment you'll be very comfortable in, this is 100% your spot.

The restaurant was packed, and it actually surprised me because I don't usually see that many people at restaurants in Riverside. The energy inside felt lively but still comfortable.

And the best part is they're free. We ordered the carne fajitas and chile relleno.

**IF YOU MISS YOUR CHECK-IN TIME, LET SOMEONE KNOW BEFORE SIGNING UP ON THE WAITLIST AGAIN** My friend and I have been going here for the past year because we love the quality of the sushi, but it seems like the place went under new management because some stuff has changed. We never ran into issues... until this past weekend. First when we signed up on the waitlist, it wouldn't submit so we pressed the submit button many times, causing our name to appear multiple times. To solve this, we just "cancelled"/exited out but we were still on the list and told the front desk person so they're aware. Our waitlist said to return in about 30 minutes so we went over to Target for a quick shopping run, but then we got the text that our table was ready 15 minutes earlier, so we rushed back, but missed our spot by 1 MINUTE. So we signed up on the waitlist AGAIN FOR THE 2ND TIME, but here was our mistake: we didn't tell the front desk person, but only because we didn't think there was a point when they would just go off their list anyways. But we got the text that we were on the waitlist again, and that time we just waited in the car until our table was ready 10 minutes later. But then we got another text right away that our name was REMOVED off the waitlist, which was a mistake since we DIDN'T check in yet. But when we tried to check in, they said that we were removed from the waitlist more than 20 minutes ago, which was the 1st time we signed up. I tried to explain that we know we missed our grace period the FIRST time, so we signed up AGAIN for the SECOND time, got the confirmation, got the text our table was ready, but then received another text that we were taken off the waitlist even though we hadn't checked in. The person showed us that we were never on the waitlist, and kept saying we missed our grace period a long time ago. I tried to show her all the texts I received and their timestamps, but we ended up signing up on the waitlist *AGAIN* for the *3RD TIME*. We were already starving at that point waiting a lot longer than we were supposed to. Food was good as usual but it was hard to enjoy it after having issues with the waitlist system. The new tablet system is cool, the sushi came out quick, and also the surplus charge for extra food is apparently gone. But the gratuity charge is automatically added to the check so be careful you don't pay the tip twice. Probably won't be returning any time soon. Maybe in another year when their system has more time to fix their glitches. TLDR; if you miss your check-in time, let someone know before you sign up on the waitlist again. It wasn't the front desk person's fault but it was still frustrating to deal with when we were already hungry. read more

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sushi Okoku, and overall, it was a delightful experience that left me eager to return. To start, the ambiance of the restaurant was warm and inviting, with a modern yet cozy decor that set the perfect tone for a sushi outing. The staff greeted us with friendly smiles and prompt service, making us feel right at home. Now, onto the food! I began my meal with the edamame, which was perfectly steamed and lightly salted. It was a simple but satisfying start, and it really whetted my appetite for what was to come. Next up were the rolls. The Dragon Roll was a standout--visually stunning and bursting with flavor. The combination of crispy shrimp and creamy avocado, topped with eel and a sweet sauce, created a wonderful contrast of textures and tastes. It was clear that a lot of care went into its preparation. The Yellowtail Roll was equally impressive. The fish was incredibly fresh, with a buttery texture that practically melted in my mouth. The subtle flavors were beautifully complemented by the hint of wasabi, allowing the quality of the yellowtail to shine. I also tried the Eel Sushi, which was rich and indulgent. The smoky flavor of the eel paired beautifully with the sweet eel sauce, making it a delightful bite. It was the kind of dish that leaves you wanting just one more piece. While everything was delicious, I did feel that the rolls could have been a tad more generous in size. However, the quality and flavors more than made up for it. The service throughout the meal was attentive and friendly, with our server checking in at just the right moments without being intrusive. It's always nice to see staff who genuinely care about the dining experience. Overall, Sushi Okoku is a gem in the area. With its inviting atmosphere, fresh ingredients, and mouthwatering rolls, it's a great spot for sushi lovers. I can't wait to go back and try more of their menu. Highly recommended! read more

Recently had my third visit at Sushi Okoku, I always go for the all-you-can-eat. It is extremely affordable, and they have such a wide variety of options that you're sure to get the most bang for your buck! First and foremost, let's talk about the gyoza. Oh boy, those little parcels of joy were pure perfection! Each bite delivered a burst of flavor that left me craving more. The chicken teriyaki, too, was a delight--succulent and came out piping hot. It truly hit the spot! Now, let's dive into the highlight of my visit--the jalapeno poppers! The combination of heat and creaminess was a match made in flavor heaven. Trust me when I say they are an absolute must-try. Prepare to have your taste buds dancing with joy! Moving on to the rolls, the Las Vegas roll never disappoints. It's become my reliable go-to. However, the Senorita roll left something to be desired. The avocado topping was disappointingly mushy, not quite reaching the level of excellence I had come to expect with Sushi Okoku. But hey, not every roll can be a superstar. While I've had great experiences with the service at Sushi Okoku in the past, this time, things were a bit off. I found myself waiting longer than expected for my first roll, and unfortunately, they missed bringing me two items I had ordered during my second round. It was a minor hiccup, but it did detract from the overall experience. But not enough to keep me from coming! Despite these hiccups, Sushi Okoku remains my go-to spot in Riverside. Flavorful offerings and impressive variety that will for sure satisfy your sushi craving! read more

I went to Sushi Okoku with my family to celebrate my birthday, and it was the worst dining experience I've ever had. From the start, the staff were cold and unfriendly, glaring at us as if we were a bother. The service was beyond unacceptable. They never came to check on us once during our meal. They brought out our appetizer after we finished our main dishes, and when we ordered a beer and 4 cups, they only brought one cup. When we asked for the additional cups, the server made a face and acted annoyed. We had to keep getting up to ask for service because no one bothered to come to our table. Things got even worse when we asked for a bottle after finishing the beer. Suddenly, they decided to card us, even though we'd already been served alcohol. It felt like they were just trying to create unnecessary problems. To top it off, when we went to pay, my mom was understandably upset with the service and told the server she didn't want to pay gratuity. The server rudely claimed it couldn't be removed. My mom asked to speak with a manager, and--shockingly--the manager turned out to be the rudest and b**chiest staff member of all them b**ches. With a terrible attitude, she finally removed the gratuity, but her demeanor was unprofessional and downright hostile. This was hands-down the worst service we've ever received. The staff seemed lazy, unfriendly, and completely uninterested in their jobs. If they don't want to be bothered, they should work as dishwashers. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone and will never be coming back. read more

Came on a Sunday around noon. You order on tablets so the servers hardly interact with the table at all, not usually an issue considering the tablets are there to make things easier right? Except for the included gratuity. I go to AYCE often so i know included gratuity is usually they way to go, never minded it before. Waitresses have a poor attitude and are impossible to get a hold of. Had to ask multiple times for a single thing, like a refill or napkins. It was my first time here on a weekend so i had a couple questions regarding our orders bcs they have a different system for Sat & Sun ($40 a person, up charge on sauces, etc. this is not a thing on the weekdays so i just wanted a little clarification) For 2 people AYCE we paid a little over $20 in gratuity after paying $100 bill. Usually not the type to write a bad review but the service was horrible, i spent a majority of my time here waiter for a server who was rude, consistently ignored our table, answered with attitude, and was not worth the $20 tip. read more

The customer service here is truly top-notch--attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about ensuring every guest has a great time. And the food? Wow, it's a sushi lover's dream!

The fish just melts in your mouth, and the flavors were perfectly balanced--their creative mexican/latin house special rolls are delicious. The presentation was stunning too, making every bite a treat for both the eyes and the palate. I can't recommend it enough.

5/5 - Fresh, Flavorful, and Fantastic! Sushi Okoku is a true gem for sushi lovers! They have an impressive selection of sushi rolls and bento boxes, offering something for everyone--from classic favorites to creative specialty rolls. The Hawaiian Roll was incredibly fresh and bursting with flavor. Every bite had the perfect balance of sweetness and freshness that makes you want to order another one right away. The Okoku Roll, their signature creation, was equally outstanding--rich, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every dish.

Sushi always comes out super fast but I'm sorry, why is there an automatic gratuity for EVERY party size??? First of all, I've been to this establishment multiple times as a party of 2 and never once have the employees or servers given us a disclaimer about the automatic tip. Second, 90% of the service is done through an iPad! Why am I getting auto-grated when I'm ordering my own food on an iPad and only talk to a server once just to put in a glass of water. I've been tipping ON TOP of the gratuity apparently, definitely not deserved for the minimal amount of work that the workers are doing. Never been to a restaurant that does this to parties smaller than 4-6 people. Some transparency from the business and staff would've been appreciated. No longer coming back. read more

Sushi Okoku is absolutely amazing! The food is always fresh and of the highest quality, making every visit a delightful experience. One of the standout features is the ability to order on a tablet, which is incredibly convenient and modern. It's so nice not having to use paper menus anymore, and the food is brought to you quickly and efficiently. The environment is up-to-date and very welcoming, making it a great place to enjoy a meal. It does get really busy during lunch and dinner hours, so be mindful of the wait times. However, the wait is totally worth it for the delicious sushi and excellent service. Overall, Sushi Okoku is a fantastic spot for anyone looking to enjoy fresh, high-quality sushi in a modern and comfortable setting. Highly recommended! read more

Have not been here since it was called OK Sushi. Now, Sushi Okoku, has been remodeled and it looks great. The ambience is very pleasant with soft lighting and pleasant music. The menu is very extensive and there is going to be something for everyone. The all you can eat menu is so huge that it is double sided. There is a no rice section on the AYCE menu with several options, if you want to keep it low carb. The fish is excellent quality on the rolls and on nigiri. Kelly, from Okoku, took very good care of us. My wife is the one who found this place and I am so glad she did. This just became my favorite Sushi spot over the one we have been going to for years. read more

She was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel welcoming and smooth without ever being overbearing. If you're looking for a spot with high-quality food and genuinely great service, Sushi Asahi is definitely worth it. I'll be coming back for sure. read more

Sushi Okuki was a great dining experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Everything we ordered came out quickly and tasted amazing. What really stood out was the service--Noah was outstanding. He was attentive without being overbearing, checked in at the right times, and made sure we had everything we needed. His friendly and professional attitude really added to the experience and made our visit even more enjoyable. Overall, Sushi Okuki delivered both on quality and service.

Wow! This place is truly amazing. The quality of the food is extremely fresh to the point where they are frying the shrimp right before it goes in the roll. Allowing you to taste the extra crunch! Currently the have a promotion with the All you can eat M-Th 1$ beer/sake!! Great atmosphere and the owner is very attentive to all of his clients. They have multiple Tv's for events and also great selection of music. Very sleek environment. Also all the menu items are included in the All you can eat!! Will definitely be returning!! PS. STUFFED Jalapenos are amazing. read more

Ranted and raved about this place and the selection of rolls, especially the fusion and baked rolls. 2nd time there for lunch on 11/20 and experience was very different. Spicy garlic edamame was way over cooked, mushy and falling apart. Ordered two baked rolls and both were soggy, covered in sauce, not warm, with rice outside falling apart. Worst of all, both the person I was with and myself got terribly sick within 30 minutes of finishing here. Guaranteed to have gotten food poisoning. Won't be coming back to Okoku any time soon read more

The service was impeccable from start to finish. The staff greeted me warmly and guided me to my table with a genuine smile. Throughout the evening, their attentiveness was remarkable, striking the perfect balance between being friendly and professional. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, providing insightful recommendations and answering all my questions with enthusiasm. In terms of value for money, I found the pricing to be fair considering the exceptional quality and the overall experience provided. read more

She's very attentive, organized, and handles seating smoothly even when the restaurant is busy. She keeps a positive attitude, is friendly with guests, and helps create a great first impression of the restaurant. Her customer service stands out and really adds to the overall dining experience. Definitely someone who makes the place feel more inviting. BTW I LOVE YOUR MAKEUP GIRL!! read more

I've tried majority of the sushi place here in Riverside and by faro the best is here in Okoku Sushi. Everything tastes fresh, the service is great, and the atmosphere is welcoming. My favorito rolls to get are the Ashi roll, wonton popper paradise, spiderman roll, and the teriyaki roll. The space is big so you can always come with a party of like 6 people and not worry about space. I always recommend this place to my friends ds and family. Give it a try and you'll see this place is great. read more
