Sushi Taro, located above a CVS, provides a sushi experience that many find delightful. The menu features a variety of meals, including cooked seafood and sushi, ensuring there is something for everyone. Popular highlights include the Kobe dish and NC Bluefin Tuna special. The cooked mixed vegetables are well-seasoned and make for a great start, while the seaweed and radish dish is both refreshing and warming. The 6-piece Poke-mon roll and shrimp tempura roll are satisfying options, with the rice being perfect for sushi. The rainbow roll, with its vibrant mix of fish, and the salmon avocado roll remain favorites among guests. The restaurant's calm, zen-like interior decor, along with big windows overlooking leafy trees, creates a pleasant atmosphere. The staff is attentive, and the extensive sake selection enhances the meal. Although the food quality has been noted as overpriced by some, others appreciate the great quality and fair prices, particularly on busy Friday nights. During restaurant week, dishes like soft shell crab and shabu shabu ramen were enjoyed hot and flavorful. Overall, Sushi Taro continues to be a notable destination for sushi lovers seeking a memorable experience, despite mixed reviews on certain dishes.
