- Crunch Salmon Roll: 0.5/5. The pickle radish and ponzu sauce does not resonate with the salmon at all. There’s only sourness when chewing.
- Shrimp . Not crispy, probably oil temperature too low/fried time overdue.
- Sushimon . Balanced food taste, the radish and perilla leaf worked really well boosting overall favor, recommended.
However, the service is 10/5. Great service from server Danielle, loved her serve attitude.
Environment vise, great place and atmosphere, if you are looking for a nice place to date, probably yeah, but if you only want to enjoy Japanese cuisine, then not recommended.

my favorite sushi spot in Raleigh. If you can get it, get the Chirashi! Best thing that they have. The restaurant is a little small, and usually if I’m not sitting in the restaurant the quality isn’t as good for some reason (they have a hotel lobby seating). Not sure if that is because the quality goes down when there’s more people? Either way, it is always incredible.

Best sushi I’ve had in the Triangle. Super fresh and they keep things simple. The miso soup is prime comfort food - a must order, trust me.

It was our first time here yesterday. The sashimi was amazing. We also tried the rolls — everything was good, but I definitely recommend the sashimi. Thanks to Daniel for the quick service and the anniversary treat. We’ll definitely be back. Everything looked beautiful too😍

You should eat the food here. It is superior. Sit inside if you want “the vibes” and, sit outside if you don’t. Dishes that will change your perspective: the miso soup.

Exceptional staff. Lovely atmosphere. Food quality is unquestionably superior to 90 percent of anything you'll find in the Triangle. The uni alone is absolutely sublime.
As someone that works in the service industry, I crave a good meal; a meal with good service, beautiful atmosphere, and phenomenal food. This place had all of the above. For my first time and certainly not my last, Rachel was our server and she was phenomenal! Rachel was kind, attentive, and the best service I’ve had in Raleigh in 6 months (at least). Sushi blues used to be my go to spot, but that’s changed. I only got a picture of the ambiance, but food was amazing and reasonably priced. We had sushi, udon, eel sandwiches, and the lemon marscapone cake…all of it was perfect. Best date night I’ve had in a very long time. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!
I don't really want to tell you how much we love this place because they don't take reservations and I don't want the lines to start getting crazy long, but we really really love it. Top 5 best sushi in the Triangle.

We’ve come to dine as 4 people and a 2 year old. They said they would take us after 30 minutes of wait, we agreed. After 40 minutes of waiting, they told us they didn't have a seat for the 2 year old and couldn't seat us. It was like they were kidding us. If they had given us this information at the beginning, we wouldn't have waited 40+ minutes in the first place. And they didn't even apologize or felt bad in the slightest. So, we wasted an hour for nothing. This is a place that should never be visited and has serious attitude problems. I don't recommend it to anyone.

Great sushi. Horrible vibe being sat in a hotel lobby by a rotating door. It really ruins the whole experience.

Sushi Mon was recommended by my cousins friend saying this is one of the best sushi place in the area and boy was he right. Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed all 3 sushi we got along with the Sushi Mon hand roll (little pricey) and the Mother’s miso soup. Everything was delicious and fresh. Sushi rice was properly cooked and seasoned which was very important to us. Definitely we’ll be back!!
