"I had the Habanero Large Grilled Habanero Chicken with veggies & brown rice. veggies were perfect! Still some crunch but softer than fresh. Sauce is a solid 7 out of 10 on heat scale (I like level 11+) 😊"
"love ordering the Large Original Gyudon Beef and Gyoza whenever I'm craving something filling at night but have no desire to cook. Sad when the gyoza doesn't come with their signature sauce especially when the gyoza turns out really good (sometimes the skin is overcooked/undercooked and rly hard) otherwise 5 pieces for under $4 is AMAZING !!! Will continue to purchase from this place"

"Food is delicious! I I had Chicken TeriyakI., Pork Gyoza. And Spam Musubi. . I wished I had ordered 2 - they are big and yummy! If you plan to pick up, say your first name!! I shared my last name 3x and the kid had no clue and even said we never got that order. He never asked my first name, then i went to my car to get my cell phone and show them the order - noticed my first is displayed and 1st letter of last name."
"Great bowl of ramen, the broth and meat were just right. Didn't personally love the texture of the gyoza, but probably just because it was a bit before it got to me. Had I crisped them up real quick upon arrival they would have been great too, I'm sure. Delivery driver was quick and friendly. Good packaging (noodle tray to keep noodles fro dissolving in broth). Would definitely order again."

"I had the BBQ Chicken and it was delicious, best take out food I have gotten in a very long time. The chicken was nicely charred but still tender and juicy, rice was perfectly cooked and macaroni salad was so good. And, there was a lot of food, enough for dinner tomorrow also, which is good since the food is a little pricey. All in all I am very satisfied. "

"Best sushi in San Diego. Price is reasonable and the flavor on the food is 10/10. Their tempura ice cream is to die for"
"This Tonkotsu Ramen lacks the creamy milky flavor it's supposed to have. It's base is like shoyu soy sauce ramen but bland and bad. It's extremely disappointing for 20 bucks. ThePork Gyoza is good but you only get 5 for $13. I won't be ordering here again."

I was concerned as the price kept adding up for items usually included elsewhere like cucumber salad and avocado... but let me tell you they packed the bowl full (it literally was heavy!), did an awesome job layering items evenly, and everything is so fresh! This will be my new poke spot!"

"The bowl was DELICIOUS. Will ask for more sauce next time as the large bowl is sauce heavy just on the top. And a bit too much cucumber with the noodles that overcame the rest of the ingredients but was yummy and fresh. "
"POKĒ BOWL | Large (4 scoops of protein) & SPAM MUSUBI definitely worth ordering. Consistent, delicious, always fresh for years of coming here. Had a bit of a sweet tooth and got a MOCHI ICE CREAM | COOKIES & CREAM and it definitely wasn't worth the 5 dollars for the 1 bite. Was actually kind of comical how small of a serving it was. Other than that, 5/5 stars"

"The medium spicy Shrimp Tempura was deliciously spicy. Wish they offered a mixed flavor option so we can have spicy and less spicy options to share. I like how they even offered spice levels for the tempura, great flavor, and they are definitely generous with the spice. The teas were also very delicious and refreshing. Not bitter at all and the sweetness was perfectly balanced. I will definitely order from Tapioca Express again. The tempura is addictive. If they offered spicy popcorn shrimp, I'd be ordering every week."
"The taro drink was a letdown. The portion was noticeably small, and the flavor tasted watered down right from the start even though it wasn’t sitting out. Instead of that fresh, creamy taro taste, it came off weak and diluted. With how it turned out, I’m not sure I’d order it again."
