    Casual quick lunch /dinner type of spot . Clean but not much seating available inside and it's cold out right now so not trying to sit on their outdoor tables but come spring this place will be perfect . We were lucky got a table before the rush but came here on a Sunday for dinner the service from the cashier was quick and the food came out quickly as well . All entrees were actually pretty good and good big portions. Hibachi entree shrimp and steak Bogo sushi roll deals

    2 orders of Cream cheese wonton (fried)

    Quick dining option. The Yelp special "BOGO Free" is NO longer accepted and will NOT be honored even if it's still active on here. Food is fresh. * Cream Cheese Wontons | has very little fillings, just plain cream cheese, fillings doesn't have imitation crab, etc. * Lo Mein | was watery so it didn't pick up on the flavor/sauce, carrots are over cooked so it's super mushy, other veggies are cooked well * Sushi rolls has more rice so it looks bigger/more filled Cashiers are nice and welcoming.

    Yummy roll (top) and Crunchy Crab Roll :P

    the workers are very sweet and the sushi is great! My food usually comes out in 5-10 minutes. The place is also calm and peaceful!!

    Chicken, shrimp and steak combo

    We have been sick & didn't feel like venturing out for Friday early dinner so we gambled with DoorDash. Didn't have much expectations because who really orders hibachi delivered but me this one time... wasn't too shabby. The food arrived pretty quick & still pretty warm. The steak was tender, but the chicken was a little dry. Overall, not bad. Wish they gave ginger sauce as well, but just the typical yum yum sauce was given. Their sushi combo is any 2 for $25.

    Nicest owner around, so friendly and professional. We call ahead and the food is always ready and hot when we arrive. Not sure if this place is getting the notice it should be! It's located behind Triangle Town Center in the strip of stores, on the end. Fair prices, yummy food, ample parking and kind employees. Win win. About $10 for a huge lunch portion.

    First time to try this place out. Food was good and enjoyed the fried tofu with the flavorful soup. Very attentive service too.

    We were looking for a quick place to stop for a sushi lunch. The place was rated highly and I am glad that we came here. It would have been jive to sit outside but it was cold. The rolls are all BOGO or 25% off one. We got the Philly roll, the rainbow roll and the double salmon. The double salmon was my favorite. Everything was really good and the miso was delicious. Great pricing and quick and easy to get in and out of. The guys were jive that worked there.

    Vegetable Hibachi with fried rice and "white sauce" which is more orange to me but ok.

    The service was just ok not impressive. The food was ok as well, the carrots were the sweetest carrots I've ever had lol. The ambiance is better than a carry out. This is a place I would eat if I'm in the area and just want something to eat.

    First time here with my honeybun !!

    Great start to loving Japanese dishes! My husband and I made a 7:45 pm reservation on a Saturday,…read moreand sat in the main dining room. Little light tapers stood in the middle of the table. Not too bright nor dim. Our waiter, Dylan, really treated us well. Before we ordered anything, Dylan gave us each a very, warm terry-cloth wash cloth for our face and hands. Nice touch. We just had water to drink, but that's okay. My husband's entree was very spicy! We began with the Shrimp & Vegetable Tempura. The shrimp was quite fresh, and the flavor gave a great mouthful of taste and some oiliness (but, not dripping). Flavor! Also, we ordered Negimaki, which are grilled beef-wrapped scallions with teriyaki sauce. One bite is the way to eat those. Love the chopsticks, too. We were each served Miso Soup and two small salads (with ginger dressing). Sure did like that (the soup had good flavor, but was a bit salty for our tastes.) My entree was Teriyaki. I am not familiar with a lot of Japanese dishes, but I do know this flavor. I ordered the Steak. This came with stir fried vegetables with a good flavor of cabbage. I liked those. White rice completed my dish. My husband ordered the Spicy Seafood Udon. This proved to be more spicy than it appeared. This dish included vegetables, udon noodles, shrimp, hokkaido scallops, squid, green mussels, in a savory & spicy garlic butter sauce. We had food leftover, so we got some containers and packed them for home. We will come back here, and perhaps eat outside (sure, the view is of a parking lot), but the high tables and the torchieres give it a nice atmosphere - perhaps as the weather turns cooler, we will enjoy being outside. We spent over $100 without alcohol. Prepare for that, but, it's worth the drive and it's worth your time and money.

    I've been to Waraji once before a while back but went back for lunch today…read more We got there right at 12 when they opened and had a reservation in advance. I will start off by saying that I am giving this place two stars because of the poor service. We ordered the following items: - Miso Soup - Suimono Soup - Spiral Ecstasy Roll - Regular Sashimi (16 pieces) We got our roll and sashimi but never got our soup even though we saw multiple orders of soup coming out. We were almost done with our food and then the Suimono soup came out. We had to flag down our server multiple times since he never bothered to check in with us. We had to ask multiple times for simple things like napkins and ginger. We finally got our check and told our server that we never got the Miso Soup and sent the other back since we didn't to gave soup after our meal was done. We paid and left. The food was delicious. This was one of the best rolls Ive had. The sashimi platter was also good. We realized after getting home that our platter was supposed to come with 16 pieces of Sashimi and they only gave us 12. I will go back to eat there but they definitely need to improve their service!!

I ordered the sushi combo (6 pieces of nigiri and a Sushi Mon hand roll) with a miso soup. The miso soup was a pleasant surprise and was delicious quite filling as it contained cabbage, salmon, and mushrooms. The 6 pieces Nigiri was also well balanced and had a good selection of sushi (amberjack, salmon belly, cooked shrimp, etc.). The Sushi Mon hand roll was good but had a bit of heat to it.

The staff was incredibly friendly, offered excellent recommendations, and checked on us regularly without being intrusive. Our food came out surprisingly fast after ordering, which was a nice bonus. The restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms, which says a lot about how well they maintain the entire place. The music was at the perfect volume, and the lighting and overall ambience created a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere. The food was excellent from start to finish. The sushi was fresh and delicious, with the Monster Roll easily being my favorite. The hibachi steak was cooked perfectly--tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. The crab rangoons were the best I've ever had--crispy, flavorful, and generously filled. Even the kids loved their meals and cleaned their plates, which is always a huge win. On top of everything else, the prices offered great value for the quality of the food, service, and overall experience. If you're looking for outstanding sushi, delicious hibachi, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere, I highly recommend OKOME. We're already looking forward to coming back again very soon!

It's imitation. Many imitation crab contains wheat. Again - ask ask ask. Guess what? It does contain wheat. So they served us both of our allergens. The manager came over and explained the hibachi they served us also contained wheat. And he blamed the waitress. When we explained that it was not her fault but the kitchen's he said he'd go ask the "chef" for his explanation. He returned and told us that the crab roll has gluten in the mayo too. He wasn't sympathetic or understanding of the severity but did go right back and added GF to several menu items that may or may not be gluten free The ambiance in the restaurant is too loud. The quality is on par with Japan Express but the management and kitchen's lack of understanding their ingredients and safe food handling and preparation combined with the arrogance won't have us back.

    It was Easter Sunday. Apr 5, 2026. This was my first visit to TDLLO Ramen & Sushi. There was a…read morecocktail bar and a sushi bar. I opted for a table (not the booth). The decor included dark wooden furniture, hardwood floors, door curtains for kitchen, and a ceiling lamp in the shape of a fish. On each table was a pale bottle with a small spout and a large stopper. This was for the black sauce, and the first time I have seen black sauce provided at tables in anything other than the small transparent bottle with double-spout cap. Next to the kitchen doorway was a black board announcing "What's New". The menu is printed on black-colored pages bound by black leather cover, which matched the black uniforms of the staff. I ordered my usual ramen: tonkotsu. It was served with a renge and a fork, the latter for those uncomfortable with using chopsticks. That didn't apply to me. I put the fork to the side and used the wooden chopsticks. The tonkotsu had three thick pieces of chasu, lots of menma slices, some kikurage strips, and a soft-boiled egg served in two halves. Though a little saltier than I would like, the broth was still delicious and complimented the food well, especially the chasu. It had a mild spiciness that caused slight irritation to my throat, but otherwise was worth consuming the entire bowl. It was about 11:10am when I arrived. Besides myself, there was one other party of two. The cocktail bar had two large TVs, one playing CNN and the other playing a sports program. The volume level was barely a whisper. Most of the time, I didn't hear anything. By 11:45am, two more parties of two showed up. The atmosphere was quiet the entire time, and definitely a great place to relax and enjoy a meal during lunch time. As I was leaving, I took a look at the outdoor dining area. It is housed in a patio next to the building. It has plenty of seating and is almost enclosed but for a cased doorway. I was impressed that TDLLO is accommodating to its customers during rain or shine (unlike Noodles Blvd in Cary). I returned on Jul 3, 2026, this time with a friend. We chose a booth and were served by a young lady Lexi. My friend and I ordered veggie ramen and shoyu ramen respectively. Had I paid attention to the picture in the menu, I would not be surprised when the shoyu ramen was served. It had two thick slices of chasu, a soft-boiled egg cut in two halves, lots of corn kernels, slices of fish cake and menma. Essentially, it was tonkotsu ramen with more ingredients. The pork broth tasted saltier than the tonkotsu's but without the mild spiciness of the latter. The saltiness was also apparent in my friend's veggie ramen. The shoyu ramen I had at S.E.A Ramen & Asian Kitchen (Knoxville, TN) had a different broth. It was shoyu, not pork bone, and the flavor wasn't as strong. In contrast, TDLLO's shoyu ramen had a much richer flavor. The saltiness didn't ruin the dining experience. Like the last visit, there was plenty of seating. The quiet atmosphere was conducive for conversations without having to raise our voices. Customer service was smooth. Lexi made sure we were pleased with everything. As we were leaving, a male staff gave us a polite farewell. My friend was impressed with not only the food but also the restaurant's decor. Once again, TDLLO Ramen & Sushi has my recommendation.
