" Yoshino has the best poke bowls around! I recommend getting the spicy tuna bowl—it's fantastic! The sizes are perfect for lunch, and you can easily grab it and head to the beach. This place is cash-only, so remember to bring bills. I can't stress enough how good the quality here is! " (*Curated Review*)

" Yoshino is a must-visit for any sushi lover. The prices are incredibly reasonable for the amount of care and quality that goes into their food. The poke bowls are flavorful, although I will admit that I found the portions a bit smaller than I'm used to at other places. The environment is casual and friendly, which I appreciated. I will definitely come back to try more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" As a poke lover, I’ve tried many places across California, and Yoshino stands out in terms of freshness and flavor. Their poke bowls are filled with high-quality fish, and they offer interesting toppings that enhance the flavors. The atmosphere is more of a casual to-go spot, which is fine by me because the food is what really shines here. Bring cash and try to be one of the first in line when they open because they sell out quickly! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Yoshino for a quick bite and was charmed by the owners' hospitality. The poke bowls were solid and fresh, though I did think the portion sizes could be a little larger. Everything is cash-only, which is something I appreciated, but be aware it can get busy. Still, a great spot for lunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had heard great things about Yoshino and decided to check it out. It's a small place but there's a reason for their popularity. The sushi is incredibly fresh and the poke bowls live up to their reputation. Even though it was pretty busy, I was served quickly by the friendly staff. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Yoshino after hearing great things from friends, and I was not disappointed. The poke bowl I had was flavorful and definitely fresh. The owner was polite and had a great rapport with customers. The only downside is that the place does get crowded, and being cash-only can be a bit of a hassle, but it was well worth it for the quality of food I received. I left with a full belly and a smile! " (*Curated Review*)

" I thought I’d share my experience at Yoshino since I’ve been there several times. The sushi is undeniably fresh, and the owners are some of the kindest people you'll ever meet. A significant plus is that they don't compromise on quality, often making just enough for the day's service. It would be nice if they accepted cards, but honestly, the cash-only policy is part of their charm. Keep this spot on your radar if you’re in Carlsbad! " (*Curated Review*)
