Best sushi spot in Poway hands down. Foods top tier. Service is solid and the vibe is versatile to any occasion you may have whether you want a quick bite or a fine dining sushi experience. Place has it all.

A nice quiet place to enjoy some quality sushi rolls. Went with my cousin, and she really liked the shrimp tempura, said "uyy que rico dios mio," which means "wow that slapped." Anyways, super attentive waitress, and I loved the atmosphere A++

I usually order delivery, but i decided to do pick up yesterday. I just ordered a simple To Go order, when I got there the staff was so kind! The sushi was very tasty too! Be ware the spicy tuna is full of spicy goodness 😋 especially the hand rolls.

The food and prices here are pretty good! I love the rice! I haven't had a roll here that I didn't like yet. Been here several times with friends snd my husband. Good for a casual dining experience!

Incredible food and service! The sushi is fresh and the fish is high quality. Sushi Roka also offers catering for all types of events. Recently had them at a wedding and it was amazing! Highly recommend!

I ordered delivery from Sushi Roka for a large party, and everything was perfect! The sushi was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with care so it arrived in excellent condition. Every roll was delicious and artfully made—our guests couldn’t stop talking about how good it was. The portions were generous, and the variety made it easy to please everyone. They made hosting so much easier, and I will definitely be ordering from them again for future gatherings. Highly recommend!

This is a really great sushi bar. Their rolls are generously portioned and their prices are reasonable, especially during happy hour. I recommend the Firecracker Roll.

FINALLY!!!. Great sushi in Poway! I took my daughter here Sunday and really, really enjoyed it. Everything we had was terrific. It was busy so we had to wait about 10 minutes but it was worth every minute. Someone, I believe it may have been the owner, bought a glass of wine for my daughter while we waited for a table. We had spicy edamame and tempura shrimp for appetizers. For sushi I had escolar, tobiko with a quail egg, and uni; and we shared a firecracker roll. She also had the teppanyaki skillet with filet Mignon. Every single bite was excellent. I am so happy the people who run this restaurant are focusing on quality food, beautiful presentation, stellar service, and it's super clean. They are also very generous with the wine pour! I was so tired of getting low quality sushi around here I stopped eating it except at places like Hidden Fish and Soichi. I'll be back . . . and soon!

Casanori Sushi delivers every single time. The presentation is sharp, the flavors are balanced, and you can tell there’s real attention to detail behind the bar. It’s the kind of place where you end up ordering more because everything hits. Donovan and Ivan are a big part of that. They keep the energy up, make the whole experience smooth, and know exactly how to guide you through the menu without overcomplicating it. Solid food, solid people, zero disappointment.

Located next door to Fed Ex in same plaza as Brigantine. Plenty of parking. Came for lunch on a Tuesday. Not only do they have lunch specials until 2:30, but they have Happy Hour all day Monday to Wednesday! What a steal on prices. We got the salmon teriyaki bento box that came with miso soup, rice, 4 piece CA roll, ginger salad, and mixed tempura. The mixed tempera was the same size as my entree mixed tempura! Had I known that, I wouldn’t have ordered the entree. Also got two rolls, the crunchy shrimp roll and chili mango roll. I prefer my crunchy roll to have more tempura flakes. I’m a sucker for rolls with mango. The chili ponzu gave a tiny kick and the mango was sliced really thin giving you a slight sweet and tart refreshing taste. I’ve had better Takoyaki where there’s more octopus. This one had a lot of the doughy wheat flour and one full chunk of octopus. I like mine chopped up in many pieces to have it evenly distributed in every bite. Otherwise, each bite consist of all dough and one bite with the octopus like in this case. All in all, it got crazy busy during lunch. Great quality food, quick service, loved the options. Nice size dining and bar seating. I will need to come back and sit at the bar to have some amberjack sashimi and nigiri.

The sushi is always good quality and rolls are fun and tasty. Service is spot on and it's always welcoming and friendly inside.

I went there on a first date the food was delicious The service was a little lacking we sat out during the patio in my ice was really filled. When it came time to pay the tab the waitress blurted out the total from a tablet I was mortified My date did not have a chance to break down what we were billed for or not build for interesting We had gotten a role we didn't order And she gave me real Wasabi and said she wasn't gonna charge us for it hmm I wonder But overall I would definitely go back

I ordered a steak bento box. Tempura is yummy. The steak was cut into small pieces that were easy to chew. Teriyaki sauce is not tasty.

I typically don’t write negative reviews but wanted to warn people off this place. Ordered the Dynamite Roll and Teppanyaki Skillet. The roll was decent, but the fried rice was abysmal and looked and tasted as though it hadn’t come anywhere near a wok, more like a microwave. The sauce on the skillet tasted so fake and full of preservatives that I wouldn’t be surprised if it had come straight off of a store shelf. My husband and I didn’t finish our food and considering the prices, we won’t be back (especially with Tong Sake House right down the road).

Ate here with my gf. Thought everything was great until an hour later. I don't know what happened but we both got sick. I think something was wrong with the fish we ate.

I’ve been coming to Sushi Roku since I was younger, and it used to be one of my favorite spots, especially for the bento box. Recently, my mom and I decided to visit again after years, hoping to relive those good memories. Unfortunately, this visit was very disappointing due to the service we received from our server, Alyssa. From the moment we started ordering, Alyssa came across as cold and dismissive. When my mom ordered the ceviche, the dish that arrived was completely different from what we expected. It looked more like a whole fish rather than the chopped, marinated style we’re used to. My mom didn’t even touch it, and we kindly asked if we could return it. Instead of handling the situation with professionalism or understanding, Alyssa responded with a sarcastic, “Well, what were you expecting?” which we felt was completely uncalled for. Additionally, I had ordered spicy yellowtail, which I confirmed with her could be made spicy. When it arrived, it was plain yellowtail with a side of sriracha. That’s not what I ordered, and again, the issue was brushed off. Throughout the entire meal, Alyssa’s attitude remained consistently rude and unprofessional. There was no warmth, no sense of hospitality, and it honestly felt like we were being treated as an inconvenience rather than valued customers. What made it more frustrating is that my mom has actually been to this location several times this week and is familiar with the usual level of service. This time, however, was enough to make us both decide we probably won’t be coming back, especially not if Alyssa is our server again. Despite the poor service, my mom still left a 22% tip because we understand the importance of tipping in this industry. That said, good service should come first, and this experience was a huge letdown. If you visit, just be mindful of who your server is — because our experience with Alyssa was extremely disappointing and not what we’ve come to expect from Sushi Roku.

Absolutely terrible!!! We placed an order online for pick up . When I arrived there were so many people waiting to be seated and to pick up orders, with no staff helping anyone. Brought the food home and everything looked terrible!! Half of it couldn’t even tell what it was. I’m scared to eat any of it because I don’t want to get sick, what a waist of $70. Very disappointed, probably won’t be back.
