Chef Robin was outstanding, the staff was extremely friendly, professional and kind. The courses were exquisite, delicious, flavorful, rich and umami flavor galore! It is reservation only for the lunch experience. It is 100% worth it! We had the lunch Omakase experience with the Sake pairing which was well thought out, and paired nicely (and varied with degrees of flavor and highlights/notes) with the meal - 10 courses in total including dessert, so come hungry! Overall a wonderful experience and lunch!

Was an incredible experience! The food, the wine and sake, and the service were top notch. This place deserves a Michelin star.

Absolutely amazing experience. My girlfriend and I will definitely come back for the best food I've had in the US and to collect all the seasonal menus. I've tried a few Michelin Star restaurants before, I know this place definitely deserves at least one.

I am not a religious man, but I firmly believe that as fish live, they dream of becoming sushi at Omakase by Primefish. It is their mecca, their nirvana. Primefish represents the pinnacle of a life well lived.

Primefish honors this life, giving it meaning, purpose, and recognition.
I have dined at Primefish at least 27 times, beginning with their pop-ups and attending quarterly, as well as frequently enjoying their lunches when time permits.

I have been beyond impressed and moved—not only by their sushi but by the audacity of introducing a wine pairing with such perfect execution, further cementing their Michelin-star-worthy experience.

Their Ultimate Wine Pairing is a pitch-perfect crescendo to each bite, unveiling an additional layer of flavor.

As you can tell, I am beyond impressed with Chef Robin. I marvel at his creativity, his nuanced dishes that achieve perfection in flavor, and his dedication to his craft, delivering these exceptional dishes time and time again.

I look forward to your first Michelin star—see you soon!

This place is a love letter to food.

With only 6 seats, the setting is intimate and the food is phenomenal. Chef Robin's love and reverence for the ingredients really stands out in every small detail. The sake pairings by sommelier Terrell were inspired and delightful.

Is it expensive? Absolutely. But it's a splurge worth saving for - I'd rather come here once a year than order out from or go to a mid tier restaurant 10-12 times in a year. It's an expirence to savor and remember.

We made a reservation for lunch omakase and, by an honest mistake, went to the other PrimeFish location in Ballantyne. Despite calling multiple times to reschedule or arrange a later seating, the hostess eventually called back but refused to accommodate us. Her only suggestion was to try to make it to the correct location—45 minutes away—an impractical and dismissive solution.

When we asked about rescheduling, she pointed to their rigid 72-hour cancellation policy. This policy is far stricter than what we’ve experienced at other high-end restaurants. For a restaurant branding itself as upscale, this lack of flexibility and unwillingness to work with customers is disappointing and unacceptable.

Customer service should be a top priority in this tier of dining. If this is how they treat customers on the phone, I hesitate to imagine the service during the meal. With so many phenomenal sushi options in Charlotte that actually value their guests—like O-Ku, Pisces, Hestia, or even the other PrimeFish location—I strongly advise against making a reservation here. This experience in our case was non-existent and a complete letdown. Happy birthday to me, minus $300.

Amazing experience with fantastic food and atmosphere. Plan to come back in the future!

One of the best dining experiences in CLT. We came for lunch which is ten courses and lasts 1-1.5 hours. Our menu had fish from all around the world and included two starters, eight nigiri (one of which was A5 wagyu), and a complimentary piece of the world’s most expensive melon aka musk melon.

Watching Chef prepare each dish at the intimate six seater bar was part of the fun. His passion comes through in the food and every single thing we ate was delicious. We love Prime in Ballantyne so this was no surprise. Next up - the yakitori omakase at Nusa.

Very high end Omakase experience where the chef takes out all of the guess work for your meal. Each bite was very satisfying texture and taste to awaken your senses. You don’t want lunch to end because the food tastes so great ! Try some high end sake to make the whole thing more enjoyable if that’s possible. Once in a lifetime culinary adventure from a master chef without taking the trip to Japan.

Parking: Plenty of spaces for lunch hour

A lovely meal and rare in the Charlotte food scene. The food was all good and the meal progressed at a nice pace. The staff were on top of things.

However, $375 pp felt extravagant especially when we’ve had better omakase in big cities for less. I understand there’s the cost of prime ingredients and flying everything in from Japan, but it still felt too expensive after the experience.

A miss for us was the disposable chopsticks and napkins. At that price point, you should be using proper linen napkins and chopsticks.
