This is my favorite place to get poke bowls. The ingredients are always delicious and reasonably proportioned. To top it all off, the presentation is always excellent, they even include a pretty flower atop the dish! Everyone in Iowa City should try this restaurant at least once.

Udon with vegetables and shrimp tempura was fantastic!

Took myself to Soseki on a date and I was throughly pleased! I got Crab Rangoons and the Spicy Tuna Roll as an appetizer and they were both delicious! For my entrée I got the Mongolian Shrimp and added Beef. It was absolutely amazing. The flavor was on point and thanks to my waiter Seb I got more bang for my buck! Definitely recommending and definitely will be returning! Total experience was a 10/10!

Best quality of sushi around puts anybody else to shame. Even their simple rolls have such good balanced flavors. Never disappointed when we come here, and the owner cares so much about the place you can just tell.

Casual place, friendly service. Sushi was good, but curry fries were great. Just FYI strict carding policy. 65 year old guy couldn't be served a beer bc he didn't have ID on him.

I love Soseki and reccomend it to anyone whenever I can. I have never been disappointed by their sushi, and all the employees are extremely friendly. My personal favorite roll is The Executive, if you are in Iowa City this is a must go.

It may not be the most beautiful store, but the food and service are excellent. The Taiwanese menu options are the real deal. Try the beef noddles.

Food was ok….sushi was decent, but not amazing. We didn’t have a bad experience, but not likely to be back.

Food, service, good. Not a fancy place for a candlelit romantic liaison perhaps. Handy for downtown IC.
