17 Best Japanese Restaurants in Cary

“Wow! The atmosphere of M Sushi was incredible! The service and the food were equally impeccable. I felt our server was incredibly attentive and she explained each course in detail, which I appreciated. Everything was so delicious and fresh. I highly recommend M Sushi for a special occasion or a nice dinner.“

“The food was delicious, presented attractively, and authentic. The portion sizes were a bit small for the price, but we just got to try a few more appetizers. Some in my party were not familiar with Japanese food, so it was a good way to introduce a range of various dishes and options. The staff was very friendly and helpful, with great recommendations. The parking lot is a little strange, be aware that you can't drive around the building.“

“Cozy little place with great food!! Their garlic ramen was amazing!!“

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

“Pleasantly surprised at how good my lunch was today! At first I thought the menu lacked variety but the quality and taste really made up for it! I ordered the hibachi steak lunch and a side of miso soup and it was made Fresh! The veggies were so crunchy and the steak was cooked just right. The miso soup came boiling hot and everything just tasted not too greasy. The portion size was large enough for me to have leftovers for the next day. For $14 you can’t beat it. Highly recommend to check them out! By the way the decor is adorable! Super instagram worthy and it’s a husband and wife shop too!“

“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.“

“Authentic Japanese food with a truly welcoming touch.
The young lady who served us was so kind and patient, taking time to explain each dish with care. She even brought us a gluten-free menu to choose from. The owners’ kindness and sincerity made the experience even more special.
We’ll definitely be coming back again soon. Arigatou gozaimas!“

“I came here to order for the first time ever, I ordered by myself on the self checkout screen, I made a mistake with my order. One of the staff checked in with me about my order and I told him that it was okay I’ll just take the extra home because it was my mistake. The nice gentleman approached me and reimbursed me my money right away which I thought was very thoughtful. The staff here is very nice and helpful. Looking forward to eating the food! Definitely recommend!“

“Last Thursday, me and my family came here for the first time to celebrate my older son’s birthday, thinking it was a fancy dine-in restaurant. Unfortunately it a to-go restaurant but because it was raining so hard, we decided to stay and give the food a try. Thankfully we stayed because the food ended up being amazing and now my son won’t stop asking to go back.“

“The food is always amazing, fresh, and hot! Best Japanese food in North Caroline!“

“The Ahi tower is a delicious smattering of flavors, the takoyaki is rich and has the best cooked octopus I've ever had. Their sushi is also very good. Me and my girlfriend have come here 5-6 times over the last few months and it is consistently the best restaurant in Cary.“

“Always enjoy dinner there good food“

“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!“

“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! :)“

“Shared cashew chicken with white rice. Also had wonton soup and spring roll - all delicious! Recommend!“

“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“

“My girlfriend and I try to come at least once a month because everything is always SO fresh and delicious. We always open with a serving of their piping hot fried dumplings and delectable dipping sauce. I always get my favorite, an extra spicy Chadol Jjampong that blows my mind every time I taste it. We always feel so welcome because the staff actually remembers us and treats us like family. Well worth the price and the 30 minute drive from home for us. We always talk about Okja even when we cant make it over that way and will keep coming back as long as we can! Thank you so so much for everything 😊“
