16 Best Japanese Restaurants near Wake Forest

“Best sushi ever! Great service! Cozy atmosphere!“

“Great Ramen. Best in the area“

“Went in and ordered to go. Food was delicious as always and service was great! We got the hibachi steak, which we had never tried, but it was so good! Will definitely get it again. We also got 2 teriyaki chicken, one with rice and one with noodles, both very good.“

“Went this evening for the first time and it did not disappoint. I am very picky about my hibachi and it was by far the best I have had in this area.“

“This was a random dinner selection and WOW! What a wonderful treat! We did the BOGO sushi rolls - Tempura 2 and Crunchy Special - some of the best sushi rolls we’ve ever had (and they were huge, we did not finish all of it). We also split some crab wontons (yummy) and the teriyaki chicken with white rice. It was all so so good, we also didn’t finish the teriyaki chicken and have some tasty leftovers. And then, at the last minute I saw the Thai Coconut Cake on the dessert menu… oh. My. Goodness. Talk about HEAVEN in cake form - this is some of the best cake I have ever had in my life and requested my wife get me one for my next birthday. It was thick, rich, not overwhelmingly coconut-y (if there was any downside to the cake it would be that, but my wife who doesn’t like coconut enjoyed it too!), and just incredible. I 100000% percent recommend Sushi Siam!! They had tons of other things on the menu that sounded delicious that we will be trying next time we go, and our server was very very sweet and super friendly. All around great spot!“

“Was solid and Abby was a beautiful and attentive waitress.“

“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!“

“A really good ramen bowl at an excellent price. I got the tonkotsu bowl and added pork belly and bok choy, but the base portion was generous enough that I could easily have ordered with no add ons and been fine. I also had the chicken karaage which was crispy and delicious and like the ramen, was a generous portion at a very reasonable price. I would definitely come back. The menu isn't huge, but there were other things I'd like to try, and that menu focus probably helps them keep such good prices so I'm fine with it. I'd definitely recommend for a quick bowl.“

“good food. sat outside, nice atmosphere“

“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“

“The sushi was excellent and really good value. However, it seems to be more of a take-away restaurant. It is possible to eat there but only in the take away boxes. However, this has no influence on the very good taste.

Parking: The parking lot is not in the immediate vicinity.“

“Love it the people was nice food was great“

“I've been seeing them, but actually tried them out tonight. I got the Steak & Shrimp. Food was wonderful. I also like cream sauce and hot sauce. Cream sauce was very thin, the hot sauce wasn't what i expected and not very hot. I also have a hard time walking right now. So i called them from the parking lot and asked if they could bring it to me. They did!!! Talk about service. That's why i gave them 5 stars.“

“Nice place. Fried dumplings were so good.“

“Love it the people was nice food was great“

“I order from here all the time. The staff is nice and my food is always great. I get the Tenko Chicken. Quick, convenient, predictable comfort food. And it's kind of silly, but I don't have to ask anyone for chopsticks, you can just grab them as you need them.“
