“So I don’t ever do reviews for anything but I was just so impressed that I am compelled do to so. Ive been looking for a legit local spot for ramen for a while now, and a lot of the places around here just fall flat. I feel the people preparing the food here actually care about the quality they put out to the dining room. Every aspect of the ramen was taken into consideration and it showed. I had the tonkotsu ramen with black garlic and cha shu, and it was absolutely amazing. The pork was roasted and seasoned well, the egg was properly marinated and the broth was deep and rich with flavor. I was so full but still wanted to finish what little I had left. I HIGHLY recommend and I can’t wait to go back. massive w.“

“I had a rock n roll sushi roll it was sooo delicious! If you like seafood that's the one it was very flavourful. My son had teriyaki chicken and steamed rice (a bit pricy) but it was okay. The place was very busy (Saturday) we waited over 45 minutes for a table it is a very small restaurant they need a second one for sure.“

“Hands down, really good Japanese sushi, better than any I've tried in the East Bay. We happened upon this place while looking for sushi on the way back home from Yosemite. I think it really makes all the difference when sushi restaurants are owned by actual Japanese people. The rice is better, theres a good balance between the rice and the filling, and they have real Japanese ingredients like gobo. The vegetable tempura and agadashi tofu were also delicious. Will definitely stop by again when we go out that way. The only thing, I'm surprised the prices were so steep for Modesto.“

“We moved to the San Joaquin county a year ago and have been looking for a good Japanese restaurant, and this is it. The foods, the atmosphere and the services were just right. Not too fancy, but way above average. We ordered the deluxe boat, deep-fried softshell, oysters, and other things, and they were all good. The place was clean and the waitresses were quite pleasant. I was surprised the prices were a little cheaper than many other Japanese restaurants in the valley.Parking: Their parking lot is spacious and have enough space for all customers.“

“Enjoyed a delicious dinner with family last night. The food was so delicious. Beyond my expectations. Edamame is a must! Beef wrapped asparagus was so good. I ordered the Dante’s inferno roll it was delicious and packed with flavor and the prefect amount of heat! My husband had the BTS roll and it was also delicious The Bee’s margarita was amazing.Only down fall was the wait. We were told 50 mins and it was 1.5 hours. It appeared they were seating tables who there after us and were “know” that was annoying.But the food made up for it.“

“The service is good, the food is good and probably standard price for this type of food. The ambiance is nice it is gated from the rest of the tables probably because they serve alcohol? I think it cool that a place at GrubHub serves drinks more places should serve drinks there.“

“one of the the Best & authentic spots for quick and simple yet very heartwarming teriyaki dishes.customer service is very straightforward and a vibe of old school greet-ful love- very positive atmosphere and respectful here.everything listed on menu you can’t go wrong, as i have no complaints on my end.but i do have my favs.. please do try their # 12. ( i know i don’t have a photo on this review to show - truly you won’t be disappointed though, a simple combo of fried rice / chow mein and their flavorful teriyaki grilled chicken.Now! as their quick finger food or appetizer, definitely the Eggrolls as shown on photo.. something about their catchy tasty ingredients. meaty and crunchy with the veggies all mixed well! it’s addictive that it’s a must for me to grab a tray.“

“I got the Takoyaki, Gyoza, and magic school bus with a sprite. The gyoza was perfectly cooked. Slightly crunchy as was fried yet the pork filling was perfectly temped for a delightful eat. The takoyaki was hot to the core but pleasant as it was tamed by the cold ponzu and mayo toppings. Finally the magic school bus specialty roll was by far the best finisher as was fulfilling with the smoked salmon, shitake mushroom, and cream cheese pairing topped by a delicious ponzu sauce. A much better roll than a simple Philadelphia roll any day in my opinion. Overall good, just wish it could've been more affordable.“

“My girlfriend and I love coming to this place! We’ve really become regulars at Hoki because everyone is always so attentive and friendly, they honestly make us feel like part of the family! It’s sad to see that on Valentine’s Day there was a customer yelling at the manager and making a scene because she wanted to be sat right away—when dinner time for most places on Valentines is reservation only. The manager is such a sweet lady, I can’t imagine anyone being mean to her let alone yelling at her like some of these customers did. 10/10, will be coming back!!“

My aunt says she's been here many times and the service is always fantastic and so is the food. But she did say the fried oysters were not the best nor her favorite.“

“Thinking about sushi and a good deal stop in. The service was very on point. We never worried about an empty glass or what to order. Our server was very attentive. We watched the game, drank sushi bombs and gobbled down a few rolls with fried tempura. Oh the miso soup was pretty tasty too. My dinner partner said they have really good deals on rolls on certain days. I think he said Monday through Thursday but im not positive. We went on Sunday and I didn't pay so I'm not sure how much dinner cost. Definitely going again and wanting to try other options.“
