Japanese Restaurants near Knightdale

“The OG of Chinese hole in the wall restaurants. Not a place where you’ll find orange-sauced chicken nuggets but an obvious neighborhood favorite judging from the continual to-go traffic. We enjoyed generous portions of chicken fried rice and shrimp fried rice. One star withheld for greasy egg rolls. The egg drop soup lacked flavor (to me) but the egg was very tender. The atmosphere was lacking but the prices make up for it; $16 each for our meals plus counter tip.“

“Way overpriced for what you get“

“The food is very good. We like the ginger sauce a lot. The white sauce is good too. The salad was good but needs a couple more toppings on it. The ginger dressing is very good too. Parking is a little tough in this area. We will return soon for more yummy food.“

“The yum yum sauce is thick (not like other local hibachi places that have runny sauce). The yum yum sauce cups are big and filled to the top, and the sauce is delicious.

The chicken hibachi dish is great, the chicken is seasoned nicely. Vegetables and rice are tasty, too!

You can’t beat the prices either!!!“

“I can’t believe some of these reviews because I have gone three times and the food has been so so good. We have dined in at a table and we also have dined in at the grill. We have had many of the options. Shrimp, filet, ribeye, crab watons and more. All have been exceptional! Our chef the night we sat at the grill was fantastic as well. Our waitress at our last meal was phenomenal. I do want to say my only draw back is that we called at 8:00 asking for a reservation for 8:30 (the website said to call) and the girl who answered was sassy saying they wouldn’t sit us unless we were there by a certain time and they wouldn’t do a reservation.“

“good food. sat outside, nice atmosphere“

“Absolutely amazing experience! The sushi was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented, but what really made my visit special was the service.

I want to give a special shout-out to Omar, our server. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever felt this well taken care of at a restaurant before. He was incredibly attentive, friendly, professional, and genuinely made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. His attention to detail and the way he treated us made the entire experience exceptional.

Omar is a true asset to this restaurant. I’ll definitely be coming back, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great sushi and outstanding service!“

“Uglyfish is a restaurant you'd never expect to be this good just by looking at it from the outside, but once you step inside, you quickly realize why so many people are raving about it!

I tried so many different things, including the nigiri sampler, a variety of hand rolls, sushi, tuna guac, and more. One of my favorite bites was definitely the tuna guac... it was incredibly fresh and delicious!

I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying even more. I definitely recommend this spot if you're a sushi lover like me!“

“Was visiting a friend and the wife and I wanted sushi. Place was empty when we arrived at night but people started to come in after we got the food that arrived pretty quick. Sushi was good for the price. I didn't get sick so that's a good thing. I would definitely eat here again.“

“My husband almost moved to Raleigh when we were engaged because of Sake House. Both our families & his job being in Virginia tipped the scale in that direction, but not by much. The sushi is excellent“
