Reviews for Sushi Okoku in Riverside, CA
How could AYCE sushi in Riverside be this good?? I was truly impressed by my experience here. The fish quality was great, all of... our food came out quickly, and the restaurant is spacious. I definitely recommend ordering nigiri here! My family's favoriteswere the Seared Escolar, Salmon, and Unagi. The rice-to-fish ratio was perfect and really highlighted the flavor of eachfish. For rolls: my family really loved the Strawberry Lemonade, Ultimate Salmon, Honeymoon, and Upland! All of these rollsdidn't have a crazy amount of rice and definitely were generous in portions of fish, avocado, etc. One downside was that thewaiters were constantly unaware about what rolls were being given to us and also would give us things we didn't order... maybefrom other tables? This happened frequently and we were confused about what we were eating at times. Read more
Got all you can eat! So so good. I wish I could remember all the sushi we ordered o.0 but the i think it was the strawberry... lemonade sushi roll that tripped me out the most! Literally sushi dessert! So many choices! Go here with multiple people whoalso want all you can eat so you can try more! Baked mussels were also so good! Read more
Nice outlook & fast service due to cheap ingredients? you don?t pay 10 bucks for coated frozen squid. The quality of the rolls... is a little above average but still not worth the price. I think it?s actually a strategy to make people choose All-you-can-eatover a la carte. These things below cost 77 raw price for 2, and just fyi all-you-can-eat is 37ish/person as of June 2022z Read more
First time customer, good experience. The food was simply amazing! Restaurant was spacious and clean, entertainment arranged,... friendly staff, and gracious managers. I had the all you can eat dinner. Started a little confusing with the menu and manner inwhich you are expected to place an order but once you get the hang of it its smooth. Staff did a good job of explaining how toorder menu and supporting through this initial experience. Food was priced decently for the location and quantity. I woulddefinitely recommend coming to this location. I will return next time I?m in town! Read more

By far the worst sushi restaurant I've tried. Waiter was doing a great job. It was a solo young man hustling trying to wait on... everyone. It was early dinner on a weekend, not very busy. As usual with most restaurants, they wanted the majority of dinerssitting in one section of the restaurant to make it easier for the wait staff. A single diner came in and wanted to sit in theopposite side of the restaurant. The waiter did the right thing and sat her where she wanted to. After all, we're still in apandemic and if she wants to sit away from others, by all means, let her. The owner chastised the waiter for seating her in theunoccupied half of the restaurant. On to the food. The AYCE menu has, amongst other things, oysters. I order oysters. Thewaiter tells me they don't serve, again, amongst other things I ordered, oysters. When I told him it's on the menu, he seemedunaware they were on there. He said he'll have the manger/owner talk to me. When the manager/owner come to the table, she saidthey don't serve oysters. When I told her they were on the menu, along with other things I ordered that also didn't get served,she said those are the old menus. One of the reasons I decided to try this place, was the oysters. I tell you with 100%certainty that if I knew they didn't serve oysters, I would've gone somewhere else. That was one of the reasons I justifiedpaying the hefty price. More about the food. I ordered shrimp tempura, I got panko shrimp from Costco. I ordered calamari, Igot carboard that looked and tasted like it was pre-battered and frozen at a factory. The nigiri was a joke. I think thepictures speak for themselves. Aside from the tasteless, dense, and mushy rice, it's WAY too much rice for the paper-thin fishthey put on top of it. Nevermind the bone I pulled out of the salmon. One of the rolls was a California roll topped with spicytuna. Take a look at the photo, there's barely any spicy tuna on top. The other plate came Read more
