First Time great. Second time even better because the man in charge remembered me and he was not even working.Awesome tasty food and portions are worth it by far. I buy what I buy from other places in San Diego- no comparison they are on top of their game.

I ordered delivery for my mother. She says it was terrible. Chicken was tough and egg rolls horrible. I'm so disappointed! I spent a lot for something she could not even eat.

Food was amazing, portion was more than enough to fill me up and service was just as amazing. Even came back for another order of the pork katsu for my boyfriend! Their fresh lemonade was perfect! Not too sweet or sour. Definitely recommend! Its located inside a market type building so there are other stores as well but im glad i tried theirs.

I got the chicken teriyaki bowl, the sauce didn’t have much flavor, the chicken skin and rice were soggy. The takoyaki was ok tho.

Ordered the katsu pork rice bowl, with all sauces on the side. The pork was crispy and flavorful, the pickled veggie were amazing. Great, well put together bowl for a good price. Portion was good for two people. Definitely will try this place again.

Food was yummy, only complaint is that my beef was a more fat than actual beef pieces , I mean the picture looks great and don’t get me wrong the whole bowl was fire ?, I’m just saying I would want actual beef pieces rather than beef pieces with a lot of fat. Would I go here again ? Yeah cause like I said the Bowl’s are delicious. Vegetables steamed /cooked perfectly. We also ordered the chicken Karaage & that was good, liked the sauce on it. Again it’s located in the food hub and they give you a little buzzer that lets you know you’re order is ready. Overall rating 4.7 out 5 ⭐️

Massive portions for what you pay, it is easily two meals in one.the pork katsu bowl is worth it, super flavorful too!

Tried this spot out tonight since I have never done a bowl here. The bbq bowl was delicious and had the right mix of veggies, rice, beef, and ginger (at least I think it was Ginger). Thoroughly enjoyed it. Good portion size.

Was in the area and decided to swing by Market on 8th to pickup some grub...After a quick once around the food plaza, I decided on this restaurant. I'm a fan of donburi (Japanese "rice-bowl dish" consisting of fish, meat, vegetables or other ingredients simmered together and served over rice).Instead of my usual go-to donburi order of pork katsu, I decided to the Gyudon. I think I made a bad call here. The gyudon had too many fatty pieces that ruined the flavor of the bowl for me.I also ordered Japanese chicken wings, which is one of new menu items posted out front. It was tastier than other wings I've had but not mind-blowing. I liked the sauce they used a lot.So my first taste of Donburi wasn't great, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't try different items next time.

Well made Japanese rice bowls!!Katsu pork curry rice (8/10): The katsu was very crispy and the breading to meat ratio was on point! The curry was thick and flavorful and the was a nice hefty portion bed of rice to absorb all the curry sauce.Gyudon bowl (9/10): the thinly sliced beef was very lean which is amazing compared to many other restaurants that use fatty brisket! Large amount of meat and reasonable price!They also serve sides like kaarage chicken and if it's anything like the katsu, I bet it's good!

Had the pork katsu with curry and a karaage bowl and both were great, portions are what you’d expect from the price. The staff was also welcoming and kind, overall I would recommend.
