“Great location (parking may be hectic but it's available). We recommend the roll called Mrs. Woodbury's Fresh Find. Each fusion sushi is enough for one person (though you may want to add a nigiri or classic roll if you are extra hungry).Dietary restrictions: This is a great place for those with gluten allergy or intolerance. They ask about cross contamination of gluten.“
“Poke Burri in Raleigh is a culinary gem that truly stands out in the vibrant food scene of the city. The owner, Agux, is a shining example of hospitality and customer service, going above and beyond to ensure that every patron feels welcomed and valued. The Super Bowl dish at Poke Burri is nothing short of amazing, a delightful combination of flavors and textures that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy. If you're looking for a dining experience that not only satisfies your hunger but also warms your heart, Poke Burri is the place to be. Agux's dedication to his customers and the exceptional dishes served make this restaurant a must-visit in Raleigh.“
“We were traveling from out of state and were in search of the best sushi restaurant in town and definitely found it. The sushi was amazing! Beautiful restaurant, excellent service and one of the best sushi dinners we have had. We will definitely return when in town!“
“Come here nearly every Monday night after the gym and no dish has disappointed! I usually go for the BOGO sushi, stir fry noodles, the Poke bowl or the ramen. Fish is fresh, prices are great and good seating too along with a nice outdoor option. It can get loud, but that never bothers me. Just a good thing to know if you want a quiet experience.“
“One of the better sushi spots around. The nigiri and sushi roll we ordered were on point. The house salad could use some work -- the ginger dressing is thin, store bought, not the big clump of house ground ginger dressing that I was hoping for (might be better if asked for extra dressing; avocado was a nice touch though. Spring leaves over iceberg is fine but would be better chopped a bit, felt like an italian salad). Miso was good as well. Mochi ice cream for dessert -- mango by far the best flavor. Will come back here for sushi again.“
“Far and away this has been the most delicious, fresh, and plentiful sushi I’ve had in quite some time. The Thai iced tea is delicious and I will most definitely be coming back again. I’m happy I took this photo because within five minutes it was gone.“
“They have great customer service + plus great food. If you love SUSHI, sit at the bar where you could experience a sushi train coming your way with options to pick and choose and I think you'll love it..Head Chef Henry, is a great, great chef that knows what he's doing when it comes to fresh fish and he always makes sure you leave happy and he cares about his customers feedback tremendously. Overall, this place has a good atmosphere. My friends and I love it and we can't wait to go back ☺️??? ?????????“
“They’re very friendly and the tables were clean! I had the Philadelphia and the snow roll and both were pretty okay although the flavor of the rice is a bit mild. The Mango sticky rice is not too sweet, pretty good! and it seems that they give you the coconut cream whipped on the side.“
“We came here on a Thursday night and was suprised to see they had daily specials! it was $4 off rolls (was a little disappointed it wasn't off speciality rolls as it didn't specify which rolls), but we still got 1 speciality roll & 2 traditional rolls. It was delicious! But the star of the show was the salmon crispy rice. The presentation was great but the crispy rice was phenomenal, so many delicious flavors and textures packed into a bite and a pretty good price. I would come back just for that. Yatai is located in Transfer co food hall and was easy to find. We ordered at the counter and then decided to sit at one of the tables. Loved the ambiance. I definitely would recommend this place and will be back again!“
“Chef apologized and offered discount when we conveyed the food didn’t completely meet expectations due to dietary restriction. This place was responsive to feedback and was open to making amends. Food quality seemed to be good, nice place to eat if you don’t have any dietary restrictions, hence giving five stars.“
“Love going to Hayashi for lunch. They have a great deal on ? bento boxes. I recommend the Wolves bento box; you'll get a lot of food, including shrimp & vegetables tempura, chef choice sushi, sashimi, California rolls, and salad. I also love their ginger dressing!“
“This place was the best sushi I have had in a while the blue crab roll was amazing the crab flavor was so strong and good the sauces they put on top of their rolls 10/10 I will be coming back here all the time and they have amazing pork ramen bowls the eggs were cooked perfectly“
“Very cute place, I ordered their Iso Iso Ramen because it was the only spicy option they had. It was yummy, but the spice wasn’t very flavorful, it was just a plain/bland spicy. Employees were very kind & welcoming and our server was doing amazing.“
“I love Kai. I live in DC and come here every single time I visit my parents in Raleigh. It's the best sushi I've ever had! I haven't even found a restaurant up near me that tops it. My favorites are Angry Tuna, Crunchy Salmon, Screaming O, White Tiger, and Diablo. (We always get the five-roll special). We love getting a table with Mimi. Highly recommend, Kai!“
“We loved the food. The thai shrimp curry was delicious. We had the mild spicy version and i would recommend mild for all items if you cannot handle too much spice. We had fish appetizer and kung pao in medium. Both spicier for me yet very tasty.“
“Vegetarian options: Vegetable roll, veggie-Holic roll, vegetable Hibachi, vegetable teriyaki!** all sushi is gluten free, without the sauce :)GF, indicates gluten-free options, on the menu!Dietary restrictions: GF ! GF soy sauceKid-friendliness: Kid chopsticks ! Kids coloring options! Kids menu!Chocolate ice cream for birthdays* :)“
“While the food is amazing I was extremely disappointed with the service we received on January 14. We reserved the room for a work party and we had to wait forever and our server was extremely rude and seemed as if she didn’t care. My family eats there often and more times than not have fabulous service especially from the owner. Last night was a true disappointment.“
“I have been looking for a hibachi place that competes with the one from my hometown, and I went to FIVE different places before I finally found this one. I came 2 days ago after work because I wanted to try it but they were closed due to a gas leak, no problem. I came back today and it was so good and the service was nice, they give you 2 containers of sauce. Definitely will come back and I’ve already told my friends about it.Parking: There were a good amount of spaces, it’s a hidden gem so there is always multiple spots“
“Ajisai has become my favorite sushi restaurants in Raleigh due to the excellent service, comfortable and lively atmosphere, and the welcoming staff. The owner Joy makes an effort to come by each table, and it makes a huge difference in customers wanting to return. I highly recommend the Gyoza, Volcano Roll, the Manhattan Roll, and Mochi for dessert. Awesome spot in Village District!“
“This was first time in. I ordered online for pick up, was super easy to do! They have a lot of options from build your own (multiple sizes), to pre-built suggestions. I built my own with regular tuna, brown rice and a ton of goodies! The tuna was good! Taste and quality was really good, sometimes you wonder how it will be and I was super pleased! The tea with pearls was an impulse purchase....I am so glad I did because it was magical, hahahaha!!! Definitely give this place a try, lots of food for your money and good quality ingredients!“
“I absolutely love this place!! The atmosphere is amazing. There Friday night karaoke is a fun date night idea. Their sushi is so delicious, always fresh and made by order. The seafood bags are great potions and bussing. I love their seagate sauce in my seafood boil bag, and there is seagate sauce they put on the wings that's a perfect blend of sweet and salty.“
“Friendly service as soon as you walk in the door. The restaurant is clean, and I love that they still offer gloves for people to use at the buffet.Food is served by the bowl, and they will let you take your leftovers home. This location also offers eggs on their buffet.Food always tastes fresh and delicious, and they check the bar area often to wipe it down and to replace food items.We will be back again.“
“This spot has great sushi with great staff and an extensive menu. I try to find something new on the menu whenever I go but I generally order takeout which is a seamless process. My go to through covid and today. It doesn't have many seating options but I have always gotten a table.“
“The food can be hit or miss, but the portions are always generous. We are always full and leave some for leftovers. One regular meal can be lunch and dinner for a regular adult sized person like myself. Very economical. An easy go-to if you want some hibachi.“
“Ordered Sushi Deluxe and Shrimp Tempura Roll. The food was so good, tasted fresh, and incredibly well prepared. Melissa our server was fabulous and had such great menu knowledge. She helped us with the menu ensuring we ordered the perfect dishes. The restaurant feels warm and welcoming and would highly recommend.“
“We were so excited to finally eat here! We checked out the online menu before coming, and it said there was an omakase option for $85. When we arrived, we didn’t see that option on the menu so we asked about it. Our server said they could do it but asked us how much we wanted to spend. My husband said he saw $85 online and our server seemed puzzled by that amount. I’ve never been asked how much I wanted to spend on omakase so it was a little awkward and odd. The food was great. I had takoyaki, a roll, and a few nigiri pieces. My husband’s omakase spread was great and very filling. The Paper Crane cocktail was amazing, while the Okinawa Breeze was way too much raspberry. It needed something else to balance it out. Overall we enjoyed it and will be back, but I think there needs to be some clarification on the omakase.“
“We ordered a takeout Philly roll, a Southern California fried roll, a deluxe sashimi set, and miso soups. There weren't too many people in the car and our order came out pretty quickly after about 7-10 minutes. About the rolls, I won't say they were delicious, pretty good for their price. The miso soup didn't taste like water, I was disappointed. But the pieces of fish in the sashimi were very fresh and large.“
“We sat at the bar and the bartender was very friendly, attentive and knowledgable of mixed drinks and the menu. She offered suggestions and recommendations on the food and drinks. We visited during Happy Hour which featured half-price entrees. We ordered the mango summer rolls, crispy edamame spring rolls, crispy rice and the firecracker roll. DELISH! If you like good food, creative craft cocktails and great service, give this place a try!“
“Their food is very personalized; their service is quick and satisfactory, and their quality is excellent. The atmosphere and environment is soothing and comforting, and the workers here have great manners. I would greatly recommend coming here to eat.“
“The atmosphere is incredible! The crunchy mofongo became one of my favorite dishes ? Alejandra was my server, her attention was 10/10. If you want to have a good time with your friends, it's the ideal place, and even more so if the DJ is there??“
“We were looking for a place to have dinner for a birthday but we didn't want the celebration part...we opted for hibachi. We were seated fairly quickly with another family and a server came to our table to get drink and appetizer orders while we looked over the menu. They have your standard hibachi items and I did appreciate them telling you the prices of sharing, adding additional meats, etc. We did order an appetizer and it never came. Which is ok (I think I paid for it as well and was in such a food coma that I just didn't even realize it until we left) There is a lot of food, I had the couples meal with my husband and I could barely eat half of it. They apparently know this because they bring boxes for you to take the leftovers home. The service was good, not too much fanfare as the schtick is pretty much the same at every hibachi place. I will say they might need more humidifiers because the floor is slick with what I assume is oil from all the cooking.“
“Hands down the best sushi you will ever eat. Chef Chris's quality and care are seen in every dish. We have a lot of respect for the Owner who actually works shifts and busts his butt! Two thumbs up to Chef Chris and his amazing food!!!“
