“ My absolute favorite spot to get poke! I have been coming here for many years and it's always consistently good. They have the best toppings and out such a good portion of everything. It very good value for money. The owner is very nice. Such a hidden gem in my opinion :) ”
“ Love yogis.. been going here for 20 years. Specifically, the monster roll is a go to and on the weekends you get 1 free when you buy 2. ”
“ On our weekly rotation for dinner... or meal prep. Lol. Yogis has been here for as long as I can remember. Seems like it is a family owned / franchised location. Decent amount of tables inside. Clean establishment & fast service. Here's the BEST thing about Yogis: $3.99 California rolls on Mondays & Tuesdays. $5.99 Crunch rolls on Wednesdays & Thursdays. I mean, where in this economy can you even get food that cheap anymore? We also love their chicken, beef, & veggie bowl (Flame Broiler style). The large is plenty enough for me to split in 2-3 smaller containers as lunch for the week. Recently we tried the chicken katsu and that was delicious. We usually call in our order and pick it up on our way home from work. When we can't decide on what to eat, this is our default. ”
“ Eating at Yogis Grill is like eating at your parents' house. The ingredients are fresh and each serving is prepared with love. The owner spends five hours making the secret teriyaki sauce daily, and the superiority of gourmet cooking shines compared to other fast food restaurants' large batch process. My poke bowl was creamy and the sauce infuses every bite with flavor. The fish was plentiful and fresh, and the bowl has more fish than rice. It's got just enough medium spiciness to keep things interesting without masking the taste of the food. Even though I ordered the regular-sized bowl, I was thoroughly satisfied by the time I reached the bottom of the bowl. The dining area isn't big, but I didn't feel cramped eating my poke. The owner came out and talked to us about how the business weathered the pandemic and the sub-prime loan crisis. They're still going strong, but they appreciate your support and love. Treat yourself with some home-cooking and leave with a sense of nostalgia for your childhood--unless you're still a child, of course. ”
