Great selections and good service! Got take out and everything was prepared quickly. Will be back to sample more rolls soon.

Seeweed salad, Red Bull roll, large Sapporo beer, hot small sake

Feeling so glad that I decided to give another local restaurant a chance because it did not disappoint. The Red Bull roll was an explosion of flavor in my mouth and it had just the perfect amount of spicy so that I could feel the kick! The seaweed salad was also very tasty and the porcion was perfect for the price. Overall, I reccomend you come and give SushiKo a chance and treat yourself!

Today I visited Sushiko with my sister during our lunch break, hoping to enjoy some sushi. Unfortunately, our experience was far from what we expected. After over an hour of waiting, we asked how long until our food would arrive. The server said it would be 15 minutes. Thirty minutes later, I inquired again, asking if she could bag our food to go and how much longer it would be. That's when we were told that the printer hadn't printed our order, and it would be another 10 minutes. I would understand if they are busy, the other table of two had gotten their food before we sat down. We were the only other people seating in the restaurant. They take way tooo long, I don't recommend it. Frustrated and on a tight schedule, we decided to cancel our order, as we simply didn't have time to wait any longer. What made the situation worse was the server's sarcastic remark wishing us a good day as we left. It's disheartening to encounter such poor service, especially when you're looking forward to a meal. We ended up having to return to work on an empty stomach, which was incredibly disappointing. I can't recommend this place based on my experience.

Food was delicious, service was great, and the place was so cute! Loved the red chandeliers

What a gem. Sushiko sushi is worth the price point, because of its high quality food, presentation and taste. Not to mention two sashimi like rolls (no rice; fish wrapped), one of which I sampled; "Hot lady", which was a whole new approach to my sushi eating experience and was fantastic. The "playboy" was delicious. The ambience is mellow, clean and has a club-like feel. My waitress, Michelle, was kind, attentive and gave wonderful suggestions. I will definitely look forward to treating myself to Sushiko again.

It was dead inside I don't know why, the food was delicious, service was excellent. Ordered the dancing spicy salmon and miso, both very good meals. The server was attentive and very kind. It was a little dark in there so when I walked out my eyes hurt lol but that's fine too.

I didn't expect paying $16.95. I can't even feed two to four people with what I got. I won't suggest buying fried rice from here my first time and last time. I love their seaweed salad, though. I thought to try other food. Really outrageous price for the amount of food receive. Very disappointed.

Yum in the tum! We were supposed to eat at Tokyo Garden tonight for Teppanyaki, but something happened with our reservation. So, since the girls really only wanted sushi, we decided to give this place a try. The "A" rating in the window assured us that this place would at least pass our health code expectations as far as food safety and food handling! The service was fast and efficient. The atmosphere was clean, friendly, and soothing with the low dimmed lights! The food tasted fresh with a great presentation! Will definitely be going back!

3.5 stars The last time I was in Bakersfield, my friend and I grabbed an early dinner on Sunday night at Sushi Ko. The restaurant was empty, but I noticed several customers coming in to pick up their to go orders. My friend and I shared the following: -yellowtail nigiri ($5.50 for 2 pieces) -salmon nigiri ($4.50 for 2 pieces) -spicy tuna salad ($14.95): sliced tuna sashimi in spicy sauce -rainbow roll ($13.99): California roll topped with 4 types of fish + avo -crazy dream roll ($13.99): crab, avocado, cucumber (inside), topped with baked salmon I thought the yellowtail and salmon nigiri were great - both were melt in your mouth good. The salmon piece inched a little on the larger scale which made it suspect, but nonetheless, no complaints here. Both the rainbow and baked salmon rolls were adequately good - basic rolls I've had at other sushi establishments, but here, nothing really stood out about the rolls. The baked salmon roll was good but unmemorable. I felt like the fish stretched out just enough to cover the rolls, with nothing more to add. The spicy tuna salad was generous in portion, however, I was not expecting spicy tuna in poke form. A generous heap of poke topped the salad, which I thought was interesting. The salad itself doesn't come with dressing, so we had to ask for an additional side of dressing otherwise the salad was too dry on its own. Bits of the tuna were too sinewy for my preference, so for the most part, I stuck to eating just the salad. Well, sushi does exist in Bakersfield, but determining the best one with the freshest fish and best sushi roll concoctions? Who knows. Up to you to decide.

Had dinner last night with a couple of friends. The restaurant itself isn't very inviting. The front doesn't look like much (dirty windows and minimal signage) and when you go inside it's pretty dark. It was also warm inside. It was a pretty hot day outside and it didn't seem like the air conditioner worked very well. All three of us were sweating. I was greeted right away and seated to wait for my friends. The waitress was very attentive. My friends each had a Bento box which they enjoyed. I had the Udon soup and the Lobster Hills. I really enjoyed both. Had to take a lot of food home with me because the portions were pretty ample. So the nearly $50 I spent on my dinner and drinks will actually be two meals. The soup was delicious, somewhat spicy, contained thick noodles, mushrooms onions and the broth was just amazing! The Lobster Hills was also very good. The only complaint I have is that it was a baked roll so the top of the dish was hot as if it had been baked for a little bit but the rolls underneath the Langostino were cold. It was quite tasty though. My first time having Langostino and it really does taste like lobster. Honestly I'd like this place because the food was good but the atmosphere wasn't very comfortable.

We had the Bakersfield roll, golden salmon, soft shell crab (forgot the name) and ex girlfriend roll. All the rolls were delicious and cooked to our liking. The rice was unexpectedly delicious. You don't go out expecting to have rice this good! I just wish there was a sashimi menu.

Went here on a Wednesday night. First thing first...the hours on yelp are incorrect. They closefrom 2:30-4:30 everyday. Also no happy hour at all except on Thursdays. Kind of a bummer for sure! So we got there at 4 and waited around for 30 minutes. Inside the place was clean and modern. The waitress was sooo nice and very helpful. We ordered 2 rolls, the rainbow and the lobster hill and also ordered some fried rice and their nacho dish. The nacho dish was gyozas deep fried (to be used as chips) and some tuna, tomatos, and mangos. The dish was a little spicy but pretty perfect. The fried rice was out of this world! I dont even want to know how much butter they use. The meat was way overcooked, if I went again I would just get veggie fried rice. The presentation of the rolls was awesome, I always appreciate when time is taken to to make the dish look as good as it tastes. The lobster hill roll was baked and very delicious. The rainbow roll has tempura shrimp and fresh fish and avacado in it. All very delicious. I would come back here again, its similar to ENSO but from what I can remember ENSO had an awesome happy hour that occured more than one day a week! read more

Good atmosphere, good service, alright Sushi for the price. This place is tucked away in a small business center that is right next to two other Sushi restaurants. So it's already got competition, but Sushi Ko seems to be aiming for the more business casual, upscale with the extra staff and nice presentation on the plates. I ordered the chicken yakitori and an assortment of nigiri, settling on tuna, yellowtail, unagi, and tomago. I was informed that they were out of unagi for the day, so I went without. The kirin ichiban was cold and served in a nice tall glass. The food was presented very well, especially compared to some of the other sushi places in town. It just beats out Toro's plating, in my opinion. However, the quality of the sushi was slightly better than places like sushi time and miyosh, and the cost per piece was higher than both alternatives. The yakitori was a bit undercooked and had a lot of sauce, so it was a bit hard to fully enjoy. All in all, it's a nice place. They might have better rolls than nigiri, though. Not sure I'd return, given the many other options we have in town. read more

This is a beautiful sushi place! The food was pretty good and I'll definitely go back but the service needs some fine-tuning. I wasn't acknowledged at the door and had to grab a server to ask if I could take a seat. Menus and drinks weren't brought for a while. They need a bit more organization.

Pros: service is knowledgable and relatively quick, decor is very nice, and the flavor was Ok (not great or bad; but pleasant enough for me to eat and feel somewhat satisfied with the taste) Cons: extremely small portions, very overpriced, drenched in sauces. I ordered something called a "crazy dream" it has cream cheese and crab on the inside and salmon on the outside. It was all cream cheese and sauces, I really didnt taste the fish or realize it was even there. It was the tiniest sushi order I've ever had. Along with the coke to drink, it came out to $17.50. Pretty pricey considering it isn't filling or spectacular; it should be one or the other. read more

Nestled next to Dominos in a generic suite on Coffee road, I was skeptical that I would be impressed with what Sushi Ko had to offer. Upon entering though, I was delighted to find modern and sleek decor that was cool and inviting. The menu was somewhat overwhelming, with lots of options, but I settled on my typical California roll and added a speciality roll; the ex girlfriend. The miso soup was complimentary and was a flavorful starter to a scrumptious meal. I found Sushi Ko's sushi to be some of the best I've tried in Bakersfield and was very delighted. Although I found the prices to be on the higher side, I would definitely recommend Sushi Ko to those looking for some good, quality Sushi. read more

My boyfriend had the Rattlesnake and it was amazing, especially with their honey siracha sauce. Halfway through our meal Isaac gave us a beautiful sample of their Pink lady which was so delicious.

First, what I liked: - I was greeted by the sushi chefs upon entry, and was immediately seated. - Great service! The server was really friendly and attentive. The reasons why Sushiko didn't get five stars: - I ate all of my rolls naked and found the sushi rice was bland. - The cucumbers in my cucumber roll was bitter. - The vegetable roll was over $7.00, so I was expecting some quality veggies. The order came with 5 cut pieces, not 6 or 8, which I was fine with.... except, the rolls included a good amount of lettuce. For over $7.00, the roll should not have contained lettuce. read more

Went here once, and this place will be the only sushi joint I hit up when I have to go shopping in Bakersfield (which I dread because of the heat) To begin we walked in and were greeted. This place looks really cool and modern it was super nice. Our waitress was really nice and had a cool tattoo my mother commented on (she makes a habit of that). We ordered a bunch of different roles we haven't really had before, and veggie tempura. It was all good! They have different kinds of roles I'm not too sure I've ever had, as well as your classics. So it was cool that the place was innovative and awesome. I enjoyed it a lot (get the sushi burrito it was good!) I only marked off two .5 starts, one being it was hot in there and it was hotttttt outside (god bless bako) and another .5 because I still haven't found an amazing sushi joint near me and I don't think I ever will /: but still this is the only place I'll come back to.

Coming back from Fresno, on the way to Los Angeles we decided to stop for a bite for some sushi. Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted by a warm cozy bar embracing us with food. We were served by 2 waiters who attended to all our needs. The bar was manned by a single cook who greeted us with a smile and later free food. We were given soup, fried fish, and chocolate covered apples on the house. The food alone was a 5 star, but the service made it so much more enjoyable. The sushi was delicious, my favorite being the spicy tuna roll and despite not being a ramen shop their ramen was just as good as one! I would recommend this sushi bar to anyone, and now I have a story to tell at home about this nice sushi bar. read more

Nice place with fast, friendly service. Portions are good and prices are on par. I also like that they had a variety of veggies in the fresh rolls, fried rice, and tempura. Sadly, the tempura was undercooked so the veggies were mostly raw and crunchy. The sauce options were limited to soy, ponzu, and a mayo option. There wasn't even anything spicy on the table, such as chili garlic, etc. the tempura was quite thick and sweet and resembled the taste of a donut. The fresh veggie rolls had a nice variety inside from lettuce to seaweed, but it didn't come with any sort of dipping sauce, so it was healthy but had very little flavor (creativity required when it comes to raw dishes). The veggie fried rice was my savior at this meal as it had a nice variety of fresh cut veggies inside (not the frozen bagged stuff you might typically get). The flavor was good, but a little more garlic wouldn't have hurt. Overall, it's an ok place but I won't likely come return. read more

The ambiance is very no frills and clean. The service was relatively quick after we ordered. I ordered the lunch bento with hand rolls of salmon avocado and tuna avocado. I also had salmon belly and otoro. The hand rolls were quite large and very tasty. The salmon belly was very tender and delicious. The otoro was the star of the show - it's my absolute favorite cut of tuna and I order it whenever I get the chance! It was so tender and melted in my mouth! Overall, we had a great time and I'll definitely be back for more otoro!

I really hate that I have to give this place a 4 but it's because the spicy edamame was not to my liking and they do not carry pineapple soju. The food is definitely a must try, especially the beautiful yellowtail sashimi. The seafood yakisoba was so delicious. I did not care much for the baked salmon roll, Love Sushi takes first place for that roll and Prime Sushi take first place for spicy edamame. The crazy tuna roll I ordered was so big! The crunchy pieces on top can stand to sit in some absorbing paper towels because they were a bit oily but went well with the Tuna dance. I personally did not care for the bluefin tuna. Overall my babe and I enjoyed our dinner and will most definitely return for more.

The chicken teriyaki my wife ordered tastes like it was microwaved, the rolls were just rolls, no flavor, and the fish didn't taste as fresh and normal.

They charge n automatic 18% gratuity for 5 or more, kinda steep.

Instead, I'm paying premium prices to sit under fluorescent lights and question my life choices. The "Combo" Math that Isn't Mathing Then there's the pricing logic--or lack thereof. Why does a chicken and steak combo cost 20% more than the steak plate alone? * Standard Logic: A combo price should land somewhere between the cost of the chicken and the steak. * Kyoto Logic: "Since you want both, we're going to tax your indecisiveness." Either they have zero respect for their customers, or they're catastrophically bad at math. I'm betting on the latter. Honestly, I could buy a Blackstone grill for the cost of three or four visits to this place. The "Service" (If You Can Call It That) To top it off, the customer service is abysmal. The staff acts personally offended by your very existence. Even the older gentleman--who I assume is the owner--is the worst of the bunch. He radiates a vibe that says, "I hope you choke on that brown rice." Final Verdict: This is the last time they get a dime from me. I'm taking my business to my backyard.

Almost like baby food. Not good. The air conditioning is not turned on despite the hot weather. The table next to us was obnoxious: cursing loudly the entire time, talking about in appropriate things and completely uncourteous to everyone else in the restaurant. Staff didn't address them at all. Then our server left our table several times when we were mid-sentence. For example, she comes by to ask if we want a drink after we've been sitting several minutes. We said we're ready to order but we had a question. She interrupted us & told us she'll be right back. She answered the phone, picked up a table of trash next to us, delivered food to two other tables and then decided it was time to acknowledge us again. She also didn't wash her hands after cleaning the dirty table. I'm sorry but the ambience, environment and service are make or break for me when it comes to a dining experience. I'm definitely not planning on eating in here again. That table next to us was the worst because it was never addressed & one table shouldn't throw off anyone else's experience for eating. 3 stars because the server was friendly and the food was great.

I guess because it's a sports bar restaurant, and it's in Bakersfield. I got the shock of my life. It turned out, this was the best barbecue food I ever had. Not only that, but it's very affordable. I would say a bargain. I didn't have to spend 100+ dollars for 2 persons, like a lot of so called high quality barbecue restaurants. The briskets and ribs were amazing. Delicious, flavorful, and melts in your mouth. Sides were also delicious. The service was good too. You just go up and get your order. It took a little time, but the staff is helpful and friendly. I'll be back here again, the next time I'm in Bakersfield. Maybe I'll visit the Buck Owen's museum. Bakersfield is truly the Texas of California, although I've only been to El Paso, Texas.

We walked to the restaurant side, which was super cute, but we went to the patio. The patio was super cute as well, with plants all over and there were giant fans for when it gets really hot outside. Our server was awesome too, and I mean awesome because when she came to take our orders I had seen a very tiny very pregnant little black and white cat and I asked about her. Our server was AMAZING in telling me that the local cats are pretty taken care of because she could tell I was concerned and distracted LOL We put in our orders: sister's favorite is the NY Steak French Fry Salad, husband got the Bacon Avocado Pepperjack burger, and I couldn't decide so I got the Basque lunch setup. All the food was awesome. My different dishes were delivered as they were ready and there was so much! The basque lunch is a good value as well in my opinion:) Everyone was very happy with their food and drinks. The restroom was small but worked just fine and pretty clean.

The vibes in the new space are absolutely immaculate. There is so much more energy here, and the decorations are incredibly cute. It's the perfect backdrop for a killer meal. The Main Event: This time around, I went with the En Fuego Burger. This beast is loaded with a chile-spiced beef patty, pepperjack, sharp cheddar, thick-cut bacon, chipotle mayo, pepper relish, pickled jalapeños, and a mountain of fried jalapeños + onion strings. The Flavor Profile: This burger delivers on every level, but those fried onion strings were to die for. For the side, I got the sweet potato fries, which are served as big, thick-cut wedges. They come paired with a duo of spicy ketchup and a marshmallow dipping sauce. Switching between the two was amazing, the marshmallow sauce actually makes the fries feel like a dessert. The Drink: To wash it all down, I ordered the basil lemonade, and omg, I need to figure out how to recreate this at home. It's exactly what it sounds like, crisp, refreshing lemonade with a perfect herbal basil finish. The Verdict: If you loved their old spot, the new location takes everything to the next level. Between the upgraded atmosphere, the dessert-like fries, and that refreshing lemonade, I will absolutely be coming back here again and again.

Their hype was definitely due to the 'aesthetic'. Nothing is really outstanding to me. The drinks are such a let down, the coffee is borderline yuck.. do not recommend. Everything is quite unmemorable. Service is whatever, sometimes mid, sometimes bad. Nothing outstanding. Ambiance.... well... this one has been replicated one too many times. The food is heavily missing flavor,the hummus is disgusting. I can't believe they call that thing hummus, it's an insult to actual dish.. it's almost like it was trying to imitate the real dish, but failed terribly in even attempting to. Their pizza tasted like play-doh and looked very pale. Smitten is at least consistent with one thing, which is their staple: no flavor. One of the breaking points for me was being served food that had someone's HAIR. The restaurant is very expensive for the poor experience they have to offer. I stopped recommending them a long time ago.

Sushi Ko is such a cute little place. Its decor is modern and fashionable, giving it a very pleasant atmosphere. You feel like you're eating sushi in Vegas. The service is always great and quick and the sushi never fails me. I like to get the paradise roll, it comes with cucumber on the outside instead of rice for a healthy kick to your meal. Their salads and wine selection is bomb too! Located on Hageman and Coffee in a cute little shopping center. read more

The California roll here is above average compared to other sushi restaurants. Their sashimi is a bit lacking in size but the quality is good. I do like some of their specialty rolls but it's a bit too pricey for me! Never order takeout since you're dealing with raw fish and the taste may not be that good. I love their spicy mayo but their teriyaki sauce is a bit too thick. Be sure to ask for ginger and wasabi! Arigato! read more
