Review:"My soulmate and I stopped by our favorite sushi restaurant in Raleigh for another delightful experience. As always, the food was exceptional, bursting with fresh flavors and beautifully presented. The service matched the quality of the food, with attentive and friendly staff who made us feel welcome and well-cared for. We can't recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a top-notch sushi experience in Raleigh."

This place has good food for the most part but-- the few times I've been here the service is not that great. Especially if dining alone. I hardly was checked on & practically had to chase after my waiter for basic necessities like a knife or straw. The waiters are nice just not very attentive & might I add that it was very slow. As far as the food goes, I really enjoy the basil beef dish. The steak is super tender & the veggies are so fresh. Their curry shrimp is also great, it was really flavorful.I had their general tso chicken and I did not like. The breading was super soft and falling off. I also asked if it came with broccoli because I was going to add some on the side if not. The waitress said yes, and I only got 2 pieces she could've said that it was a broccoli garnish & not a side.Their sushi is good but I have other favs for sushi.

Wow was this place bad. I knew it was a gamble when the tile was sticky, the air a tad dank, and the tables with the sheen of diluted cleaning products. I knew beyond a doubt after using their atrocious restroom to wash my hands before the meal. While the server was lovely, the sushi was expensive, absolutely awful, and in small portions. Very few gluten-free options, and nearly zero if you don't like spicy foods.The king crab roll had wisps of red, stringy, dry, chewy bits of crab cozied up to a massive hunk of avocado. That was it. It was like having rubber saffron threads next to unseasoned mush. And the rolls? You get six bites, not 12. I'd get it if the prices reflected that quantity but they sure don't.If you're wondering how they have so many reviews (and so many positive), on each table there's a flyer offering free mochi balls to people who write yelp reviews and show them to staff. This place is hovering just above absolute garbage. Hardcore don't recommend.

As always, I like that there was a parking lot so I didn't have to park and walk from elsewhere. We didn't have a reservation and were still able to get seated without a wait on a Saturday night. The server came to check on as frequently and the decor is trendy. We started with the yellowtail jalapeño and the salmon confit. My mate had a sushi roll and I got the spicy seafood miso soup for my entree along with a Shirley temple for my drink. Everything was good but not great.

Stop in for lunch, first time here. The dining room was very chilly. There is some construction going on, but wasn't any type of interruption. The manager was sweet and kind and speed of service was good. As far as the sushi, unfortunately wasn't my favorite. It was slightly salty and bland. The texture was not the greatest either. They offer quite a variety on their menu other than sushi. Overall ok, but wasn't like I can't wait to go back.

"Decent Asian fusion near NCSU at Cameron Village"We came here on a Saturday evening just after 5pm, and it was already hopping. We were able to snag one of their outside tables, thankfully. The outside seating area is nice & covered, and they have large heaters for cooler weather, too. NOTE: THE HOSTESS TOLD US THAT THE YELP FREE APPETIZER DEAL THAT POPPED UP ON MY PHONE WHEN I CHECKED IN IS NO LONGER OFFERED.We split a volcano roll for an appetizer, and my son and I each had a ramen bowl (I had chicken-shio and he had beef). My wife had a chicken dish-- not sure which-- maybe the teriyaki chicken.I will give the restaurant A+ for presentation. Each dish came out artfully prepared: the sushi, the ramen bowls, etc.The volcano roll was fine. The menu says it comes with a "spicy cilantro sauce", but it was a very mild roll overall. I liked it, but I confess it wasn't as flavorful as I may have preferred. But still "good".My son and I were lukewarm on the ramen bowls. Again, excellent presentation, but mine tasted like creamy chicken soup from a can. I poured in some soy sauce to give it extra flavor. In hindsight, I probably should have ordered it spicy rather than mild, but I didn't know it would be THIS mild. The ramen noodles were good-- thick and good texture though sadly they had absorbed the super-mild creamy chicken soup flavor. And the other ingredients were good-- I liked the scallions. But I'm not sure where the creamy texture came from. My son ate his ramen but he noted that there are many places nearby with noticeably better (e.g., Iso Iso is just 2 blocks away).My wife's chicken dish was tasty, though-- she gave us each a bite, and it was quite good.The service was good-- they checked on us, refilled the water, were friendly overall, etc. Prices were reasonable, too.If I were to go back, I'd try ordering things more spicy. It's possible they're used to people with very sensitive palates and went a little farther than I expected when we said "mild". I also would try ordering different dishes. But again, A+ presentation, good setting, good service, reasonable prices, and decent food.

Location is located in Cameron Village so there is parking and plenty depending on time of day. It's a nice location outside seating as well. I really enjoyed the music selection and the customer service is exceptional! We enjoyed the lunch menu and ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai - it was good. To my surprise, it was very light. The sauce seemed to be present as a true stir fry seasoning as a pose to a "saucy" dish with heavy flavor. The Haurmaki (fried spring rolls) veggie filling slightly mushy but okay.. The ginger salad was sweet with a sesame flavor- greens were super crispy and cold - delicious Would totally recommend..Customer Service

Stumbled upon this restaurant and decided to eat here for an early Mother's Day dinner. The waiters were friendly and the food came out very quick. I ordered the sushi combo A which came with 3 small rolls and a choice or soup or salad. The meal was delicious! I also tried their pad Thai and curry - both of which had excellent flavor, especially the curry. While the food was amazing, the service could have been better. The waiter was a bit inattentive and one employee told us we could only order off the lunch menu (it was 3 pm) and then another came by and informed us that we could actually only order off the dinner menu and the lunch menu was unavailable? Regardless, the food made it worth it!

Good sushi quality Been here twice now and the group always has a great time with good service! I recommend coming for lunch, the specials are a great deal. This place has indoor and outdoor seating which is great given the occasion.
