    Placed the order ahead of time for pickup. Parking was difficult as the strip was jam packed full of diners trying to get dinner from Juicy Dumpling Factory. I appreciated the freshness of the bowl and the vibrant flavors it offered. But the 2 scoop protein bowl hardly had any eel or the spicy salmon I chose. The salad also had very disproportionate amounts of dressing. So one side had no seasoning and the other spots were drowning with dressings. My biggest gripe was the chewy and slimy texture of the eel. I was not a fan. It had a similar texture to animal cartilage or gummy bear gone stale. I will definitely skip getting eel as my protein choice for the next visit. Would I be open to returning again? Absolutely! I would probably get my dressings / sauces on side and skip the eel for a better bowl experience. I think it's still a good spot to get poke in the vicinity.

    Pretty standard poke, there was a limit of toppings though. I got salmon for my bowl and it did taste pretty fresh. Would've ranked higher if they had unlimited toppings :(

    Ordered some sushi rolls to go for kids. They said is delicious. The package was good too.

    Located near my hotel which was very convenient. Ordered a sushi platter. You can customize what sushi rolls you want. I ordered it online and glad they had the order ready. A family member stated this was his favorite place for poke. Hopefully I can try it the next time I'm in town. Workers were very friendly and the place had many seats inside and outside the restaurant. Quick service too!

    Yum, I love Uroko Poke! I prefer this location over the Costa Mesa shop. The parking lot is big, so it's easy to find a space. Workers immediately greeted me when I entered the shop. At Uroko Poke, you can order sushi, handrolls, or their poke bowls. I always opt for the poke bowl, and customize it to my liking. I prefer to get my sauce on the side. The workers will answer your questions if you have any or need help ordering. I enjoyed going to this location because the worker hooked it up! She gave me big portions that I had to save my bowl for the next day. Also, Uroko Poke always has fresh ingredients. When I'm taking a bite of the food, it's flavorful and delicious. There's inside and out door seating. The service is friendly and fast. The food is delicious and fresh! I definitely recommend this Uroko Poke location. Whenever I'm craving poke, I'll make a stop here.

    Food: Good quality at a fair price. A good level of ingredient options as well. Service: Quick and friendly. Ambiance: The place is clean and welcoming with plenty of seating.

    I was craving poke and was glad that I stopped by Uroko Cafe. I had the Costa Mesa location bookmarked but didn't realize that there were other locations! I ordered two scoops of spicy tuna and tofu, the Uroko original sauce and 6 toppings. The ingredients were fresh and well-balanced; and I really enjoyed how my bowl came out! I also appreciated how the avocado was not an up-charge as a topping. The server was friendly and we received our bowls promptly. There is also plenty of seating inside to enjoy your customized creation. Will definitely be coming back for another poke bowl!

    been to the Costa Mesa location and now this one, always fresh poke and amazing customer service. I did notice this location has eel/unagi, I didn't notice that at Costa Mesa $17 for 3 scoops. avocado and crab meat are free. they asked if I wanted more sauce with my bowl, next time I'll put more outdoor seating and lots of parking

    Alliah G.

    I had left a bad review before, but I came back again and had a much better experience. The poke was fresh and made well this time, and everything tasted good. Service was better too, and overall it was a solid visit. Glad I gave it another chance.

    This place is one of the best poke places I've ever been to! They really do have everything, from great portions, fair pricing, friendly workers, fresh fish, comfortable indoor OR outdoor seating, and abundant parking. I got the bowl with brown rice and 3 scoops of fish. Their scoops are very friendly and fair, which is something I pay attention to in places like this. What blew me away was that they offer crab meat, mango, or pineapple as toppings with NO extra cost! In a world where so many places charge you extra for those, this is probably the biggest reason why I'd love to come back and support Uroko Poke.

I was excited because the rating was high, but it should have went through the reviews a little better. They are located in a shopping center plaza with plenty of parking and only indoor seating. There was no line and a father/son were eating and I asked them, but they thought of the food and they said it was great. I proceed to order one of their combo meals with the Cajun Daddy house sauce mild. I also ordered a side of hot sauce. We also ordered a pound of crawfish and a pound of clams and an order of fries. The service was basic. They put out a paper on our table and brought out our food. They are very skimpy on the lemon, salt and pepper. You have to keep asking for more and they give you very little each time. Let me start off with the fries - they were soft, not crispy and lacked flavor. The seafood is not fresh. I repeat it is not fresh, it is frozen seafood. However, they prepare it, it is obvious that nothing is seasoned or marinated. Their house sauce, which is the daddy sauce didn't do any justice for the seafood. Highly disappointed, especially that we spent a pretty penny. I stopped eating the crawfish and the clams altogether. I continued eating the combo which came with a lobster, crab, legs, and shrimp with the head on. I just could not find any of the seafood tasty. The lobster was terrible, extremely overcooked and chewy. The shrimp, same thing. The crab, it was acceptable. The best thing in this bag was the sausage. There was also potatoes and corn, but I didn't bother to try it. So if you are looking for something quick with no line, come here. But if you want quality and are willing to wait, go somewhere else. I was quite surprised to see a lot of pick up orders taking place.

This location is huge! They have cute beach vibes inside! Good for any type of parties or celebrations. Service is amazing! Everyone was friendly.

The clam chowder , fried oysters with fries and garlic noodles definitely complimented well with the 3lbs shrimp we got! I also got pina colada to balance the taste and it's very refreshing! We definitely left feeling full, satisfied and happy! I will definitely comeback to this place and recommend this to my friends and family!

    We came here on Good Friday evening, after leaving another seafood boil spot(they had a long wait)…read more We were seated after a few minutes, and orders placed about 815pm. We got the combo #2 which came with your choice of head on shrimp, clams and crab (snow crab). We got the crab shack house sauce with medium spicy. All this seafood is steamed in a bag, comes with corn, potatoes and sausage pieces. Everything was quite tasty. The fries are crispy and had a generous cheese sprinkle of Parmesan. Sweet potato fries also taste great. Be prepared to dig in with bare hands - they do provide thin gloves and disposable bibs. I got steamed rice but maybe didn't need it. The one pound peeled shrimp in garlic butter no spice was quite tasty. The three servers were completely slammed. But they did keep things running well- between taking orders to each table, & serving refills , bussing tables and closing out bills. Communal sink for washing. I think part of etiquette is to NOT rinse out your mouth here. It's used by everyone after all. I do wish the floor was was in better condition - it's a bit rough uneven and slippery.

While the costs get higher, the convenience gets lower. You cannot make any special requests or notes when ordering from any online platform...... They fail to ever provide enough sauce, even when you buy it, they forget to put it in. The plates used to get more for the value, now its becoming not worth it. Today I ordered the Wasabi Salmon Bowl.......this should be name changed to Rice with slightly salmon bowl with a hint of Wasabi. There is way too much rice in this bowl. Like 2.5-3 cups it seemed like. All the other mentioned ingredients ,including any sauces are non existent. Salmon???? Where? They dont put two filets or even on filet and let you shred with your fork. Nope. You have to go hunt for salmon bits in this bowl. As for Wasabi, maybe a slight hint but since the Wasabi peas were almost non existent, as were the sauces, you can hardly taste it. This was a real expensive disappointment for what I got. I paid $30 for a bowl of rice when all was said ans done. Never again! Stay away from their new bowls. Most reviews ive read say the same thing about portion size and value or quality! California fish grill....customer experience is everything. Think of yourself as the customer. We don't want to complain or go back or figure out how to add notes to get the order the way we like it. You are a profitable company, no need to keep skimping while increasing the cost. I really want for my experiences to get better here, hut the last 3x here whether in person or via a delivery platform is just a complete miss! Provide utensils, provide the sauce choices people choose and dont undercut your customers! As for employees attitude or behavior, ive NEVER had a bad customer service or employee experience here! They have always been very nice to me.

    Quality HOT POT over here!…read more Place is a little hard to spot but be sure to lookout for the flagship name "Raising Claw". My bro and I opted out on the 55$ premium AYCE menu.

Second round order was very consistent as the quality of marbled meats came out as identical as the first batch. The tri tip and Australia rib eye was very savory. All beef options were all excellent. Chuck roll is a little too chewy for my liking as opted out on second and third order. Green tea ice cream matcha is a good meal ender.

It might be hard to find but it's located in the raising claw at the corner of the plaza! We got the premium set which came with SO much meat. The quality of all the meats were very good and diverse. Our server Hayden was also very knowledgeable on all the cuts and attentive to our needs. He was switching out plates for us and bringing in new foods in the set menu as we ate. The restaurant set up is nice too, you don't have to worry about crammed tables as they have carts to put your extra plates on so you have plenty of room to eat. Overall the experience was fun and the food was really good, the price point is high but definitely worth it since you get a lot of meats and seafood as well. Personally I'd place this location better than mokkoji or Shabuya :).
