35 Best Sushi Bars near Apex

“Hidden Gem in the heart of the unexpected. Akami is not where you'd expect to find it. Nestled amidst a convenience store, this unassuming restaurant serves up some of the most extraordinary sushi I've ever tasted! The sushi itself is a masterpiece. The fish is incredibly fresh, the rice is perfectly cooked, and the flavors are simply divine. If you're looking for a truly unique dining experience, I highly recommend checking this place out!“

“Great sushi. One of the best in the area. Wish their lunch hours extended a bit longer.“

“Their hibachi entrees are very well seasoned and flavorful. Its not just soy sauce friend meat and veggies like you get at the usual Japanese takeout places. The meat is of high quality as well and very tender. They are happy to accomodate keto and custom made my order. Highly recommend.“

“all day every day..great food“

“The sushi is amazing. The “M Special” is my personal favorite. Most recently, I got the Gyudon (beef bowl) and it was super tasty. Just be warned it’s a lot of food! Also, their miso soup is so so good! I love that they offer a lunch menu on Saturdays.“

“The sashimi was so fresh and was a huge portion. The Poke Bowl was so good, with a selection of tuna or salmon. We will be back!“

“Best sushi in Raleigh area hands down! I miss the Korean menu items but understand Covid and inflation makes it hard for small businesses to not change and adapt! We drive forty minutes for the sushi too!“

“If you want exceptional flavor, AMAZING and FAST SERVICE - like 5-minutes fast, and great sushi & hibachi... this is the place to go!

We have been going to Dan's Sushi since we moved to the area last June... Their menu is great and they have a bonus of a great lunch selection for awesome prices.

The owners are Dan and Yang and they're an amazing couple. They have our orders memorized and they're so kind and hospitable. We love seeing them every time we come in, we absolutely love them. It's like they're old friends.

I'm sure this will be your favorite place if you go, too!“

“10/10 food, service and atmosphere! My friends and I ride out from all areas of NC on our motorcycles just to get the sushi here. I recommend anyone who hasn’t tried this place to go there, you’ll thank me later! :)“

“Wonderful place for Dinner“

“Cute little spot! We stopped here while waiting for my aunts wedding dress fitting. All the food was great. I had 2 sushi rolls and both were great as well. I eat sushi regularly and sometimes I'm thoroughly unimpressed, but I would return here for sure!! Service was spot on and their plating was nice as well.“

“The food was amazing. We have been to the location in Apex and they had the same quality across the board. I love how their menu is set up with pictures of all the food they serve. We ordered the (top) volcano roll, sushi iwa, cherish you, and special spider roll (bottom). The volcano roll is one of our favorites. We love the little scallops on top. Definitely recommend coming to try their sushi. Love it here! 💙“

“Such a cute place and excellent food. I got the hamachi and scallion hand roll and the sashimi. Hand roll was full of fish. Sashimi plate had 6 different selections of fish, 3 of the tuna and 2 of everything else. I’m not sure what I ate but it was fantastic. This place is a hidden gem in the Walmart parking lot, near Pho 919.“

“Ramen and sushi were both outstanding! Prompt, friendly service. Highly recommend!“

“I love this place. Food is excellent serve is good. atmosphere is good .It is clean . The ladies restroom is clean but one of the toilets has p*** on the side and its been that way for at least 3 weeks.“

“MC is by far one of the very best restaurants in the Triangle & in the State. The quality of the service, culinary experience, & ambiance rival the Michelin Star restaurants across the country I’ve had the pleasure of dining at. If there’s any restaurant in the state that deserves Michelin recognition, it’s MC. The consistency of quality even with an ever-changing menu keeps me coming back for more. I’ve taken many friends & family here & I constantly get asked when we’ll be coming back. Bravo Chef, you’ve built an incredible experience.“

“Caribbean roll - super tasty!“

“I got the mozzarella Korean Corndog. It was pretty good. It has a sweet taste to it. It is cooked fresh when you order it. It’s something you have to have a taste for and will definitely fill you up. It’s not much room to sit and enjoy your food so best bet is to order to go. Super crowded. Actually reminded me of my time in Korea for real how congested it is in the market.“

And of course delicious, healthy food. I was especially pleased that the cook cooked the meat exactly as I requested.

“I ordered through uber eats. They had a special for buy one get one free on their salmon box. I also got a California roll. I thought the sushi was good. I had no problems with ordering and will likely order again. I have seen a lot of negative reviews from other customers regarding uber orders. While I can't speak to their experience, I had no issue with my meal. The sushi, again, was good. Not perfect, but as good as I could expect from delivered sushi. EDIT: ordered again the same thing. No problems. Good sushi.“

“First time and will not be the last time I eat here! The best and most fresh sushi I’ve had in a very long time! Would recommend and can’t wait to take the rest of my family here :)“

“Just had lunch here and it was pretty good. Not very busy so I was seated immediately and food came out quickly. Service was wonderful, onion soup was great, main dish was good. Price was $17 plus tip. Rated it lower on atmosphere only because it was hot!“

“This is an authentic Hibachi/Teppanyaki restaurant (they grille in front of you) with a kind and diverse staff, mainly from Asian descent. It is well designed and quiet. While it is sort of expensive the experience is worth every penny. The staff will take time to make your experience extra nominal. They also take time for your children too! Good 10/10“

“This place is authentic. It feels like I'm sitting in a small sushi bar in Japan. It doesn't present the glamour of an upscale American restaurant but the sushi is honestly the better than any of them. The rice in the roll was better than anything I've had in the US and the fish tastes very fresh.“

“i ate food it was really good enjoyed eating it will come again and recommended others to come and enjoy good food“

“I went to this buffet and it was good, so good in fact that they treat you like a normal person would first the food. The food would be like any other Chinese buffet, but I was so surprised that they had ice cream like I’ve never seen a buffet have ice cream. It was like seeing an animal in the Buffet. There wasn’t actually any animal in the Buffet but oh well we don’t have to talk about it next the service the service of course what I just said it greets you like a normal person and then you have to say how many persons there are you know just like the normal questions and then they greet you to your table and then you get your food.The
atmosphere was actually a little bit too fancy but oh well it’s how they designed it. it’s good 14 out of 15 stars.“
