20 Best Sushi Bars in Durham

“Had an amazing dinner experience at the bar. Cocktails were really nice with lots of fresh ginger. I loved the steamed cod and mango twister roll. My husband had omakase and said everything was so fresh! I am definitely going to try the omakase next time. M sushi was our favorite meal in Durham during our weekend visit.“

“Great food! Friendly staff!“

“Decided to try this place out. It did not disappoint. The crab Rangoon were great. You are a lot in one order. The bao buns with shrimp was great as well. I had the teriyaki chicken ramen, hot. It was great. The broth was amazing and the spice was perfect, not for the faint of heart but definitely good for spice lovers. The customer service wasn't spectacular but wasn't bad either. I think they just have a small amount of people working. Ultimately I loved it and will go back.“

“The staff here is wonderful. We go with our two young boys and they are always so welcoming, friendly, and accommodating to us. The food is delicious and there is variety for everyone. We love going here and would highly recommend it to anyone.“

“One of my favorite restaurants in Durham. High quality ingredients, always fresh, reasonably priced. Great service and vibes. Perfect for a quick healthy takeout.

“I love this place! Friendly staff and great food. Best restaurant for hibachi and noodles that I’ve found in Durham yet.“

“Good service. Staff very friendly“

“I used to love going to this place over the last 10 years or so. However since covid it has really gone down. It's gotten more expensive and you get less and less food every time. I'm disappointed bc as I stated before I absolutely loved eating here pre covid.“

“Delicious, good quality all you can eat sushi for 24.00 a person!! Hoping the quality stays high!“

“I love this place! It is one my favorite restaurants to go to when I want to spoil myself by eating out. They deliver sushi on a conveyor belt but also have alternative options like hibachi and teriyaki. It's all you can eat, everything is included, and includes a desert bar too. Highly recommend!“

“A part of my order was not delivered, although I ordered on their direct website. when I called to ask for a refund, I was told that they would not do so because they are only responsible for making the food. Noone offered to contact the driver service to rectify. Instead, when I mentioned that I could only choose to not use the restaurant again, I was laughed at. Very unfortunate. I used to greatly enjoy this location. UPDATE: The restaurant reached out, apologized, and are doing what they can to make it right. I appreciate the follow up, and I totally will go back. The food is good, and they are one of the few places in that part of Durham that isn't a chain.“

“Good food, It is best darning experience.“

“We love Akashi. The staff is so friendly and our orders are always perfection. We typically order an app (soft shell crab or fried squid legs), sushi (spider roll & shrimp tempura roll) and hibachi or ramen :)“

“The cuisine is beyond delicious and flavorful and fresh it’s appealing to the sight and fragrant to the senses“

“Excellent food, friendly service, and a real personal interest in the well-being of their patrons. The owner lent my son and I her own umbrellas to walk to our car during a downpour brought about by hurricane Debby. I can't say enough about the great food they serve, but that one act of kindness will indelibly stick with me forever.“

“good location, easy to found the resto n many choices“

“Moved to Durham in December 2023 and have been trying lots of restaurants in the area. This Chinese buffet is definitely a place I have come back to and recommend. Good prices for all the food you can get and friendly staff with a family friendly atmosphere. Food has always been good since I’ve been coming with a wide variety. Can be pretty busy on Sundays.“

“the manager (Dee i think her name is) was so kind and attentive to my order. she made suggestions based off what I said I normally like, and the bowl she made was amazing! definitely recommending friends come to this location. GIVE HER A RAISE!!“

“I just want to start off and say that the costumer service is a 10/10!! the employee’s are always so friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is always very comfortable and clean!!!! The food is very addicting, I find my myself returning a few times a week! My veggies are always very fresh and delicious. overall I enjoy eating and ordering from here!“

“Delicious food, our chef Mozart was hilarious & incredibly entertaining. The wait for a table was reasonable & the environment was top tier. We highly enjoyed our visit & will be back!“
