Absolutely love this place, me and my partner go as one of our favourite treats but sadly its opening times seem unreliable. We went to get poki bowls the other day at 11.30am but the place was closed with no lights despite the sign saying open and google saying it should be open. It is a real shame and I hope the online details get updated!

Ordered a takeaway and it was absolutely amazing! I went for the ‘make your own’ option, and everything was super fresh and delicious. The wasabi mayo was the cherry on top - gave it the perfect kick! I do wish there was a bit more sauce, but overall, it was a great experience. Definitely ordering again

The shop is pretty casual in its setup. However if you want generous portions with delicious taste, this is a good place and worth your money.

Honestly had high hope, unfortunately my visit was poorly ruined by the female server with red highlights , not only was she not helpful but rude and showed no interest either. The food was disappointing, rice was hard. Felt like I was eating left over rice that’s probably been pre made, I found a plastic in the sushi too and green string, most likely a cloth. Really disappointed and put off. Won’t be coming back

This restaurant is absolutely terrible!!!!!!!!😡😡😡—do not eat here!!The staff judge people by their appearance, bullying the weak while fearing the strong. My friend ordered a bowl and found a dead black bug in it. 🦟🦟🦟The owner explained that it might have come from their side dishes and even argued that it wasn’t a bug at all! At first, I politely pointed out the issue, expecting an apology and a refund, but they didn’t even say “sorry.” Instead, they shamelessly said, “Oh, we have nothing to say.” Later, my friend couldn’t stand it anymore and asked if they could at least give us a refund. Their audacious response was, “You see, there are a lot of little flying bugs in the restaurant. It’s normal to find one in your food. There’s nothing we can say about it.” This is the attitude of the staff and the restaurant’s hygiene standards. Avoid this place at all costs—they should be sued!!!!!!!!!!!😡😡😡😡😡😡

We were sent mouldy avocado in our most recent order, totally unacceptable definitely will not be ordering from here in the future - will be reporting to food standard agency.

Food was good (like a normal poke bowl) but not many toppings are included in the already quite expensive price and the service was terrible... It took 20mins for the bowl although the shop was empty because only the woman was doing the bowls and there was a guy just standing about doing nothing.

Awful place to eat the young male staff was rude and the food quality was awful, the tuna was fishy and stinky that’s not what tuna sashimi should be like. Absolute disappointment.

Can't believe I've never reviewed this place before. Living just round the corner it's an excellent healthy option to have nearby, made with fresh ingredients and for a good value at that. Service is always spot on too, I really do recommend visiting here.

Around £11 for a poke bowl and it’s a very generous portion size. You can create your own with three toppings, one protein option and a dressing aswell. I opted for salmon, pineapple (they had no mango in that day), crispy onions and wakame salad. Overall, was very filling and I would definitely go again to try a different combination!

Paid for extra salmon in my bowl… did not get it. Third time that they have gotten an order wrong! Feels like it’s a deliberate way to take extra money

Huge poke bowl packed with super fresh and tasty components. We ate out as the dining area is lacking the love the food has in abundance.

This is a casual poke shop in a convenient location in Newcastle. Like most poke places we have visited, they have a few recommended poke combinations along with a "build your own bowl" list. The suggested combinations are fairly standard if you're already familiar with the format. Everything tasted about the way that it should, the fish tasted right as did all of the accompanying sauces and other toppings. As the pictures show, the visual aesthetic of the bowls is also appealing. The dining area was comfortable, albeit a little sterile.

The food is really good, I love it! However, its now the 2nd time that I go there around 7pm and there is no rice or salmon 😔

Foods lovely however the timing is hit and miss. Ive gone 3 times in opening hours to it being closed early now :( also have never had sushi in and battled with them to get my money back after ordering some and never receiving it

Made an order in Uber Eat, scheduled for 2 hours after I made an order, got all confirmations and even a person who will deliver my order! At the time of the delivery my order just disappeared from Uber Eats. You left me hungry, why not cancel my order earlier?!

Wow. One of the nicest sushi/poke places I’ve ver tried and I absolutely LIVE for this kind of food! Me and my partner and our friend thoroughly enjoyed our build your own bowl and California rolls. Everything tasted sooo fresh and so nice! The kimchi was the best I’ve ever had! Salmon was buttery, rice was fluffy kinda warm n sweet n sticky, it was just all around amazing and I will definitely be back soon! The only thing that wasn’t the best was the atmosphere but there was only a few people in but they were playing up to date music that even I enjoyed (metal head😅)

Got a takeaway salad bowl, its was 12pounds. The quantity was good but it is something you can make at home for lesser so I wouldn't recommend. I went there lookign for sushi roll, but they don't sell those anymore sadly.

Food is very tasty, maybe not that filling; made my own bowl half rice half salad, if you’re feeling hungry go full rice because otherwise is not that filling.

Tastes so fresh always and they give you a lot of food. The fish is always tender and flavourful (my favourite is the tuna) but the toppings & sauces are stars as well. I rarely find places here edamame shows up in its natural sweetness, or places that offer yuzu (a Japanese citrus fruit) soy or yuzu mayo but now that I have…I’m kinda obsessed.

Fresh, healthy and filling. Went for the classic tuna poke bowl with sriracha - half rice half salad. Maybe go full rice if you’re hungry. It had wakame salad, pineapple, avocado, tamago, nori seaweed, sesame seed & orange masago. So flavoursome and well-balanced. The salmon hosomaki was quite nice too.

First visit today with my 15 year old, we'll certainly be back. Both made our own Poke Bowls, which were fresh and full of flavour. Spicy Tuna was fantastic, very generous portions and lots of options with proteins/toppings. Staff friendly and efficient too.

I had ordered a make-your-own bowl from the option in the 3 in the mix; I ordered sweet corn, avocado and orange masago, but instead of the orange masago the staff put Tamago in my mix, which I wasn’t able to have it as I am allergic to egg and most worst was I found out this after I back to the office to which mean it been wasted.

Dissapointing but tasty. Bit overpriced for what you get, the salad/rice/toppings were sparse for what you pay for. They also wouldn't serve tap water, despite having glasses & a tap behind them. I had to pay for an overpriced bottle of water instead. I sat in the resturant, it felt quite cold & could've done with some background music. The poke bowl & katsu chicken was tasty but i don't think I'll be returning. The rice was also cold, and they should do sizes individually priced (small/medium/large).

Sushi was very fishy, I understand it’s raw fish but this is and I often order from Yo, however this is first time I’ve ordered sushi for the smell to be so strong had to go straight in bin.

I'm afraid I've had to reduce my rating in light of the recent "improvements". Since the changes, it is a much less welcoming place, seating too cramped and lighting too bright. The best seats have been removed. Focus now seems to be wholly about churning through customers, and less on the experience. The one thing that could have done with sorting, namely the toilet, hasn't been improved.

Absolutely shocking quality diabolical portions tray came half full. How is this place still open ? I’m guessing that the locals have absolutely no taste in quality foods through shopping at farm foods for decades. Who Evan puts mushrooms in egg foo yung WHO !!

My husband and I have visited Fortuna numerous times together and never had a bad experience. We absolutely love the pizzas which are cooked traditionally in a wood-fired oven and the service is always great. I have also visited on other occasions with friends & family, knowing that we’re guaranteed a lovely night with fantastic food. Although my husband & I like to visit different places, this is our go-to restaurant on a regular basis when we’re in need of a great meal out.
