23 Best Asian Restaurants in Raleigh

“This is a great place to eat. Ramen! They had lots of options to choose from on the menu. The food was very good. It is a small dining room, so it could possibly get very busy. We had no problem finding seating, and a waitress took our order quickly.“

“Excellent food and service! This was truly a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. The moment we walked in, the staff were welcoming, attentive, and made us feel comfortable right away. The service was prompt without feeling rushed, and they were happy to answer questions and offer suggestions.
The food was the real highlight. Every dish we tried tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. There was a real sense of comfort in the food – the kind that makes you slow down and enjoy every bite. The flavors were well balanced, not overly heavy, and clearly made with good quality ingredients. The portion sizes were also very generous, which made the experience feel even more worthwhile.
What I especially appreciated was the consistency in both taste and presentation. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. Whether you are going for a casual meal or just craving something satisfying and delicious, this place definitely delivers.
There are still quite a few dishes on the menu that I would love to come back and try, which is always a good sign of a great restaurant. It’s not always easy to find a place that combines good taste, good portions, and good service so well.
Overall, I had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend this place to others. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to explore more of their menu! 😊“

“One of the best Restaurants for Asian food. I loved the Thai Red curry, it was creamy and flavorful. Must try it. Ambience was pleasant and Kind staff. Drunken noodles was good. I would give it that dish a 4star. We would love to come again someday.“

“They use the best Quality Food and always have stellar service, super clean too!“

“The food was absolutely delicious and nothing was over cooked into chewiness. I am sad about the Japanese white sauce because it was quite runny and bland, but as the saying goes: If you have to put sauce over steak (or food in general) then the food wasn't good. However, that was furthest from the truth and I enjoyed every bite. The atmosphere is great with traditional japanese counter seating. Overall appearance is clean and well maintained.“

“The food is really great! Definitely the real deal Asian! Great food“

“My family and I had our first dining experience at this restaurant last night and we were amazed! There was a wide variety of items on the menu and everything was great! The portions were big, the prices were good, the staff was pleasant and professional, and we even got a visit from the owner at our table. We will definitely be going back.“

“Best crab Rangoon, best shrimp fried rice, best chicken Lo mein in the area. Hands down! Also, really awesome people working the front and back of the restaurant for both take out and dine-in experiences.“

“My daughter and I love this place!!“

“Really good dim sum in raleigh. Loved everything I previously ordered: shrimp dumplings, sesame balls, steamed egg custard buns, siu mai, and the spring rolls. my favorite was lotus leaf that has the rice and pork wrapped inside. SOOO GOOD.“

“Restaurant is under new management and I can't tell you how much of a needed and positive change this is. They've remodeled the inside and their new menu is great. Food is fresh and very good and the new management is super friendly.“

“One of the best, if not the best, bang for your buck downtown Raleigh lunch. For less than $11 they will stack a tray full of rice, chicken, and 2 spring rolls. Can't beat the amount of food for the price in downtown Raleigh. Also I would not give it 5 stars if it was bad food. It is pretty pretty good. Sesame chicken and general tso really hit the spot. I recommend this place.Don't order online like the bad reviews I've seen having bad experiences with that. Just walk in. It takes less than a minute to get a tray and pay“

“I love the food here, the Bangkok chicken brings me life! I truly appreciate the care that goes into cooking the food. Also, I have food allergies(egg, dairy and soy) so the part that makes it even better is the fact that they list all allergens on the website. Keep doing a great job!“

“Muy deliciosos, excelente lugar 😋“

“My goodness my wife and I ate here and it was a great experience. The food was great and our server Jane was on point and very welcoming and helpful. She was v÷ry familiar with the menu and we got the Bento Bowl you must try it.“

“Ventured out from our normal sushi mainstay to try something new, based on something we saw on Instagram. It turned out to be a fantastic choice. Upon arrival, there was a buzz and you got the sense this was anymore traditional restaurant versus those that position themselves as trendy. There was an electricity in the air and the sound of a bell being rung whenever someone leaves a tip at the bar. We ordered the omakase. The chef personally came out to speak with us, explaining the courses, and asking about allergies. Then our journey began. We had six courses of 16 nigiri and 5 rolls the chef created for the evening. Every piece was a feast for the eyes and a treat for the taste buds. You knew it was fresh just by sight, but it all came together when you slid them in your pinhole. All in all, this was an excellent first impression. I will return and explore the menu. My only negative is very personal, because I'm a lazy driver and would prefer a closer location. Cheers!“

“If you want a sandwich you have to order at the counter next called the bowls. It’s confusing because the chicken sandwich I wanted was from katsu but the tablet to order only had the noodles. The bowls had the sandwich. It seems like the names switched which was confusing. I would definitely change that or fix it. Other than that, my sandwich was delicious .“

“Tried this place first time today. Food was awesome. Got the steak hibachi and wife got the vegetable hibachi . Also got the spring rolls which were super hot and great. Both plates were great and nice and hot with great flavor. Rice was nice and fluffy not a ball stuck together. Great place for hibachi and Owner is a super nice guy. Will be back soon.“

“Walking into this restaurant/new coffee bar, felt like walking in being greeted by family. The food was amazing, and fresh! The have some great community art plans for the restaurant!!! I highly recommend for atmosphere, food quality, and ambience.“

“Great food and excellent service and all you can eat for under $20“

“I had a gift card given to me some 1.5 years ago, and just today made my way to the store! Felt adventurous and was craving some tropical fruits. I was blown away by the variety of exotic fruits, and the extensive choice of fish. The store is, certainly, a cultural experience! My 10-year-old and I each got a smoothie - mango and pear, but I feel curious about many of the other drinks and desserts that I’d love to try. They, also, have cooked/hot food there and will bring my husband next time since he loves Asian food. Can’t wait to go back!“

“I got the sesame tofu with white rice and it was incredible. The portions are massive, which is awesome because I got full halfway through and then had leftovers for dinner! I wish I lived closer, but I’m scared if I did, I would order from here way too often. Definitely recommend!!“

“Great sushi, drinks and atmosphere“
