Parking can be tough because there are lots of businesses in this seemingly hard-to-find space. But…read moreI did alright and entered through one of their two front doors spaced several feet apart. My friend and I were seated after waiting a few minutes at noon on a Monday. We asked for a window seat but the tables were dirty, so we sat in a booth. Slow to seat us and unclean tables. Were they short-staffed? Idk, whatever. I ordered the eel hand-roll, Passion Roll, and Japanese orange soda drink. The eel was DELICIOUS, but its seaweed wrap was rubber tough. I had to gnaw it, using my canines to rip through one bite. The Passion Roll was pretty, but largely flavorless. And that soda was super weird. It tasted like your garden variety orange soda, but popping the top was an involved experience of removing the piercing mechanism, placing it on top and pressing down to break the seal. Inside the tube was a little ball that stopped the flow of soda if you tipped it too far. It was an inconvenient scene for someone just wanting to drink some soda. Instructions for how to perform the opening task were written on the side in Japanese. My friend said this place rocked. But I was wholly unimpressed. 3 stars because I'm kind-hearted.

We were glad we did because football was on and we were hoping to watch the game! Our waitress was very engaging and made sure to check on us often. The tuna and avocado-tini was amazing, loved the ginger dressing instead of a spicy mayo or soy sauce which is what I feel like this type of dish normally comes in. I also ordered a salmon roll with brown rice, which tasted good. Also snuck a few sips of the vanilla milkshake that my husband ordered, hit the spot!

This is by far the best sushi I have had in the Triangle. Fresh. Flavorful. Portioned just right…read morefor sharing amongst family or friends to get a taste of everything. The restaurant is a dimly lit ambiance giving date night or just relax and eat this amazing food. Whichever one you're going for lol The service is top tier! When asking for recommendations, I was given a great drink suggestion (Gin and Jam). I'm not a gin drinker but THIS was a great choice and I forgot I was drinking Gin. There are always several chefs freshly preparing the food so the service is not slow nor is quality comprised. I visited twice before I was able to review because I had to go back again to make sure I wasn't going crazy (haha) but to also invite my Mom who isn't a big sushi eater, though this place changed her mind. I didn't even take photos of everything I ate the 2nd time because we dug in so quickly. But overall, excellent experience!

It's surprising to see considering it's in a shopping center next to a smoke shop. Don't let the outside deter you. Parking was easy. It was not crowded either visit. The staff were all helpful and welcoming. The menu prices are great for the quality of the food. I have had comparable sushi for much more. They have a standard menu and a "special menu" so not sure how long those items will last at those prices. The cocktails were good. I enjoyed mine both times. I like the ease of coming here to get a quality meal at a good price in a great atmosphere. I just hope people aren't deterred by the unassuming location and they manage to thrive.

Chinese and luxury restaurant don't often go together in US historically. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised and delighted at the experience. The menu seemed pricey but the ambiance and food quality more than deserves. It is nice tranquil environment. The service is quick and respectful and they are not shy in guiding. I had eggplant dish, which I have had at multiple chinese restaurants before, but haven't seen this style of creation. It looked and tasted awesome. I wish they had more vegeterian items on the menu especially for the dinner and that has held us back from visiting. They had nice chinese jazz music playing. I enjoyed the experience and will definitely visit again. I asked the server for vegeterian options during dinner, he said they are willing to accomodate e.g. fish with tofu. So we will be here again another time with family.

Celebrated an anniversary with my girlfriend with dinner here! The staff was super accommodating,…read morehelpful, and friendly despite us being underdressed after a day of exploring Raleigh (oops). Pretty cool incorporating high end Chinese food, and the atmosphere was fancy but cozy. Don't forget to look around, they have lots of cool decorations! As for food, I was a bit underwhelmed. We started with the salt and pepper calamari which had a great balance of mala spice. It was delicious and set high expectations for the rest of the meal. We mainly came for the Peking duck which was honestly just ok, especially considering the price. I thought it'd come with more meat, most of the duck was skin which also seemed to be sweeter? than usual. We also got the century egg Napa cabbage which seemed very overpriced and under flavored. Our waitress mentioned it was a new item, so it may be refined in the future. Giving 4 stars for the experience. Missed our waitress' name, but she was great and made the experience even better. I think this place is worth trying again, but probably for another special occasion to justify the price range!

There was a large variety of fresh fish, each of which had their own subtle flavor, and were thick mouth size pieces. Desserts were awesome. Waite staff were appropriately attentive. Prices seemed to be on the higher side but considering this is 2026, the current cost of seafood, and everything else, I am not complaining.

Favorite sushi in the Triangle!! I've been to Sushi Suyu for years and they never disappoint!…read moreCraving fresh, quality sushi in a relaxing restaurant with friendly staff - well then this is your place to go! On my most recent visit, our waiter helped us decide which sake to order and it was delicious! I recommend making a reservation ahead of time since this is a small more intimate restaurant. They do have a Happy Hour 4:30-6pm every day with specials. They also have lunch specials. Our sushi was made quickly and we received great service. The menu was clear on which rolls were gluten free. Looking forward to our next visit!

Came here recently for dinner and enjoyed my meal…read more First, you can park in one of the big public parking lots and walk over here, so that's convenient. My wife and I booked a reservation for 5:30 PM, and the booking system was a little strange. First, you have to wait for the restaurant to confirm your reservation, so you're basically just submitting a request. Also, there's an "Assignments" selection in the reservation form which has a possible value of 1, 2, or 3. No idea what it means so I left it blank. Then, the next day, we received a curt text telling us that our reservation was confirmed and that they would only hold our table for 5 minutes. I mean, geez, I get it, but how hard is it to say "Thank you for dining with us!" or something to that effect? Not a huge deal, obviously, but kind of funny :) Our server did a pretty good job throughout the meal. The food was prepared quickly and it was very good! My two sushi rolls were very tasty, and my wife's sashimi was definitely fresh. Because we ate there in the late afternoon, there were also some happy hour specials that I appreciated ($13 for any specialty roll, and $6 for certain beers). The beer selection wasn't bad at all, and of course they had sake as well. Overall, we had a really good time at Sushi Suyu and would definitely come back!

The Restaurant week menu was great!…read more Flounder/Sea bass/Dessert option was a recommendation and was amazing. Service, and community make this restaurant one of the top in Raleigh.

Five stars, no hesitation…read more I heard about Sono Sushi through Resy and finally made it in. It's located in downtown Raleigh on Fayetteville Street, right next to the ABC 11 studios, easy to find and a great spot if you're already downtown. The ambiance is great and fits the food well. There's a nice mix of seating, tables along the windows looking out onto the street, high top tables, traditional dining tables, and a sushi bar if you want to sit up close and watch everything being made. It feels lively without being loud, and works well whether you're there for a date night or a more casual meal. We started with the Aburi appetizer, torched salmon belly, ooba, salmon roe, Japanese seabream, yuzu kosho, and ponzu, and it was outstanding. Everything worked together perfectly, rich, bright, and balanced. I also ordered ikura and ebi, even though I meant to order ama ebi, but no regrets there. Still excellent. We shared the Poke Roll with wakame, avocado, cucumber, mango, tuna, salmon, hamachi, and Sono poke sauce, and it was very good, fresh, flavorful, and well composed without being overdone. My wife ordered the spicy miso ramen and loved it. The broth was the star, deep and comforting, and the pork chashu pieces were massive, in a good way. I went with the chicken katsu curry, panko fried chicken thigh with house curry and koshihikari rice, something I haven't had since Little Tokyo in LA a few years ago, and it tasted like home. Comforting, familiar, and exactly what I was hoping for. For drinks, I ordered the "SONO? SO-YES!" entirely because of the name, but also because I love blood orange. Casamigos Blanco tequila, Cointreau, lime juice, coconut cream, simple syrup, and blood orange juice, it was excellent. My only complaint is that I wanted more of it. My wife got the Okinawa Spritz, a play on an Aperol spritz with passionfruit, and it was even better than the original. We finished with the yuzu cheesecake. I debated between that and the ube cheesecake, but since this is a Japanese restaurant, yuzu felt right, and it absolutely delivered. Overall, everything from the food to the drinks hit. This is a place I would happily return to, and honestly, I'm already looking forward to the next visit.
