Saw a message about place opened in wake Forest and decided to try this in a Monday for lunch. Not crowded but relatively full in the restaurant Wait staff is helpful with question on the ordering pad. Good flavor and fresh sushi. We all really loved Mystery Roll. Will come back for sure , compare to other AYCE places - service was pretty fast. read more

Our first visit to all you can eat. And it couldn't have been worse. Some of the items in the menu are marked gluten free. Others are not but are gluten free. We have allergies to sesame and wheat and the waitress told the kitchen about our allergies. It's an open kitchen so I saw her do it. We ordered a crab roll that was served with sesame seeds. We returned it to be brought a second roll again with sesame seeds. The 3rd roll was ok. We wondered if it was real crab or imitation and asked our waitress. She didn't know and asked the kitchen. 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. read more

I've eaten here multiple times in the past 3 months and it's been good every time. As of the end of 2025 the price for all you can eat sushi is $18 M-F for lunch and closer to $25 for dinner and on weekends. This is very comparable to Rock N' Roll Sushi's price, which is a little bit less expensive but also offers lower quality Sushi and Hibachi. Everything I've had at Okome is very good. When they first opened they required you to get a waiter to put your order in but that is no longer the case and they just leave the iPad at the table and you can place orders whenever you want. Because all the food is made fresh sometimes there is a little bit of a delay from when you put your order in to when you get the food but i've never felt I had to wait too long. They have a wide variety of rolls on the lunch menu and an even larger selection for dinner. I should stay up front that I probably value getting a good price and good food more than I care about ambiance or fantastic service but I would say the ambiance and service are fine at Okome. My giving it four stars is a reflection of the fact that I feel like they do exactly what they set out to do, which is to be a reasonably priced All You Can Eat Sushi and Hibachi restaurant. (I'd give four stars to a McDonald's if they were clean and efficient and served hot McDonald's food.) read more

Sushi is ok; appetizers were all good; lo mein was good; meat quality is poor. Ordering is not hard but a pain with 5+ people and 1 tablet. Service is fast; place is clean, servers are nice. I won't be coming back but it was nice to try. read more

We had a great time at Okome House! Definitely come hungry so you can make the most of their all-you-can-eat menu. You order on an iPad, and they bring everything right to your table, it includes sushi, hibachi, appetizers, desserts, and more. The food was delicious, the service was great, and everything came out quickly. Such a fun experience! We went for dinner, but I'm already planning to come back for lunch to take advantage of the cheaper price. read more

So much better than rock and roll sushi if you're familiar with that concept. I personally don't like to eat sushi that's on a train, riding around for an extended period of time so the fact you can order from the menu here, it's prepared fresh, and you still get great service is a win for me. I really like being able to try different things without large portions in case I don't like it as well. Restaurant was clean and our service was great. We hadn't been here before so we had lots of questions. He was patient and attentive. Def will go back! read more

I really really want to love Okome House but it's just not *there* yet. There's plenty of parking, whether it's at Okome itself or in the nearby parking lots in the shopping area. The staff are all friendly and welcoming, some definitely show better hospitality than others. Our first visit, a waitress came by with ginger and wasabi for tables but completely walked by us. We also did not get anything to drink the entire time. Our second visit, our waiter was very accommodating and continuously gave us refills. So service is a hit or miss here. The food is all delicious. The sushi is fresh and the appetizers are good fillers. However, it takes FOREVER to get your sushi order. You can make 3-4 separate orders of appetizers before your sushi order comes out. So if you do go to Okome, order all of your sushi up front because you might just fill up on appetizers instead. I was super excited for an AYCE sushi restaurant right here in Wake Forest, but there are still lots of kinks they need to work on before I consider going back. read more

We saw this restaurant and decided to go the next day. The restaurant was clean. Plenty of parking. The staff was wonderful. Daniel was our server. He was phenomenal. Very polite & attentive. He went over everything in detail & checked on us frequently. The food was delicious!!! The sushi was fresh. The chicken wings were nice and crunchy. You order from an iPad in increments of 10 minutes. Which means you can order mini plates or rolls of sushi every 10 minutes. They have a variety of foods that include: hibachi entrees, sushi, fries, egg rolls, fried Oreos, fried chicken wings, salads, etc. The Dinner price is all day on the weekends. They offer a lunch price during the week. You can/will be charged if you waste food, ordering excessively but not eating it. I'm returning soon. I really enjoyed it. It's worth the 22 minute drive. read more

This is a sushi/sashimi restaurant where you order with an iPad at the table and they bring your food to you shortly after. It was fun, and they are quick to serve. The staff is friendly and helpful. Overall the sushi and sashimi were good, but not remarkable. read more

Went on a Saturday lunch...did not know it was dinner menu all days on weekend. Service was wonderful. Super nice staff. The restaurant was very open. We sat in the middle at one of the tables. They were not very busy. Every time an order was sent to the sushi bar, a buzz could be heard across the restaurant. Over and over. Definitely could be turned down just a bit. There were a few appetizers to choose from. 3 soup options and a few salads. They had hibachi, teriyaki, and yaki udon. Then the sushi...since there was one tablet, it made it a bit hard for everyone to be able to see details on each roll. If you like raw fish, nigiri options would be the way to go. But be careful, they did make a note on the pricing menu that you cannot waste the rice balls or you'll be charged per piece. The yaki udon was tad bit on the salty side. But everything else was just okay. Nothing really stood out for me to say, I'll def be back. With so many sushi places around, I'll stick to my usual place. read more

I like the concept of AYCE sushi, but this place definitely dropped the ball. For one they lost our first order and it took over 30 minutes to get any food. They also have this weird policy where you have to pay for uneaten food, even if it doesn't taste good. And the rolls are full size so if you get it and don't like it you have to pay for each uneaten piece. The rolls we got were fine, nothing great at all. Also the bathrooms are oddly hot and smell like dryer grease. Honestly I like Rock and Rolls Sushi for AYCE way more. read more

Different types of Japanese food. Quick turn around on orders. Nice decor and atmosphere.

I wanted to love this place, but there are too many problems that will need to be addressed before I go back. 1. Very slow service and ordering process. This is an all-you-can-eat restaurant, but every time you order you have to get permission because the order won't go through until the server comes and enters a password. Then the food takes 5-10 minutes to arrive. And your time is limited and being counted down from the time you make your first order. 2. One sushi roll contained eggs (which was not listed when I did the detailed look at the ingredients). And, since I don't like eggs, I did not want it when it arrived. I explained to the waitress who then chose to ARGUE with me and tried to tell me that "oshinko" means eggs. (It does not. It's a type of pickled radish.) I was then told that I would eat it or I would have to pay extra for it. 3. Despite being all-you-can-eat, there are a number of items on the menu that are not included in the already high price and require an upcharge - including all but one of the desserts. 4. The yakisoba had a sweet sauce - nothing at all like what yakisoba should be . A number of dishes were off in a similar way. 5. There were very few vegetarian choices. I had to make notes when I did my order and (given the egg situation above) I had to be super vigilant about what I was being served. read more

Had dinner here for the first time last night! Great food, Great service and all at a great value. Our experience will certainly bringing us back soon. read more

Okome House in Wake Forest is now one of my favorite places to eat. The food is really good and fresh, and there's so much to choose from. If you like sushi, this place is perfect. Everything tastes great and you can eat as much as you want. It's also super quick. You don't have to wait long to get a table, and the food keeps coming out fast. Even when it's busy, everything runs smoothly and the place stays clean. Our server, Carmen, was amazing! She was really nice and made sure we had everything we needed the whole time. You can tell she cares about her customers. She checked on us often and had such a friendly vibe. Definitely ask for her if you go! read more

Okome House - Fresh, Flavorful, and Worth Every Bite! I had the pleasure of trying Okome House in Wake Forest, which just opened on January 28, 2025, and let me tell you -- this place is a must-visit for sushi and hibachi lovers! From the moment we walked in, the service was warm and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Fresh, High-Quality Sushi & Flavorful Hibachi The sushi was incredibly fresh, with high-quality fish that you don't always expect from an all-you-can-eat spot. The Crazy Dragon Roll was a standout -- perfectly balanced in flavor and texture, and truly delicious. On the hibachi side, both the steak and chicken were juicy, tender, and packed with flavor -- definitely some of the better hibachi I've had in a while. The Cheese Mussels Were a Showstopper Now, let's talk about the cheese mussels -- OMG. I could have easily eaten three helpings of these rich, savory, and incredibly satisfying bites. I usually never forget to take food photos, but I got so caught up in the meal that I completely forgot -- except for the mussels, which I did manage to snap a picture of and have added to this review! Great Service & Something for Everyone The service was fantastic -- attentive, friendly, and quick to accommodate requests. Even my husband, who hates sushi, really enjoyed the gyoza and hibachi, so this place truly has something for everyone. A Couple of Minor Downsides I do have two small complaints: 1. No soy sauce on the table - You have to ask for a tsukemono (soy sauce dish/ramekin) if you need one, which feels like an unnecessary extra step. Also, if you love fresh ginger, you'll need to keep requesting it since it doesn't automatically come with each sushi plate. 2. Scallops aren't listed on the menu - I was craving a spicy scallop hand roll or cut roll, but when I didn't see it on the menu, I asked the sushi chef, and he told me they actually do have scallops -- you just have to request them! If they have them available, I'd highly recommend adding them to the menu so more people know about this option. Final Verdict: A 10/10 Experience! Other than those small inconveniences, this place is a 10/10 for me! The fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and excellent service make Okome House a spot I'll definitely be returning to. If you're in the Wake Forest area and love sushi or hibachi, do yourself a favor and check this place out! read more

Okome House - Cheese Mussels - Sushi Bars Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

I came to eat here on 6/29 at 8:30 pm. We were the last table there. We order 20 nigiri and there was a bug (roach / grasshopper or something) in our food. We told the waitress and she took the food. Tried to get us to allow her to remake it but we declined. The total we had to pay was 53.98 she only gave us a 5$ discount for finding a live bug in raw fish. I was absolutely disgusted and appalled with the level of service we received. Terrible customer service. This location is obviously not very clean nor do they care to right their mistakes. This restaurant also has a sanitation score of 91. After I posted this review they proceed to call me a liar on google reviews. I want to clarify that the waitress tried to kill the bug herself when we shows it to her and the bug was found on our food and sushi. I have been to their other location multiple times with no problem, this was my first time at their WF location and it was very disappointing. If i could rate zero stars I would. read more

Great concept.. wish there was more selections and some cocktail/beer on menu.. everything was fresh and for. Very spacious, staffs were friendly. Some are a little up charge for sashimi but it was worth it ... some desserts were also a little charge.. still very good price for what you're getting. Definitely check them out. read more

We ate here one Friday night as a family. Overall it was okay it was an average buffet. The kids didn't seem thrilled. With the mozzarella sticks they served ketchup with them... weird. Stuck all the people with families in the back room... which was fine as it was cooler back there, and then my son got sick and the busser and server were very quick to help us clean it up. Apps can only be ordered one per person. Restrooms are very clean. Soy sauce, wasabi and ginger took a really long time to come out. The crab salad was actually my favorite. Sushi rolls were sub par in my opinion. My husband enjoyed his stir fry without rice. We will probably try it again but it didn't scream 5 star for us. read more

It is a clean restaurant and the food is fresh. My husband and daughter like sushi, I don't. They ate as much as they wanted and enjoyed it. The only negative for them was that some sushi came 5 pieces in a roll. They liked the ones that only had one or two pieces so they could try some they had not eaten before. I, on the other hand, was left with chicken wings, they were ok, crab ragoon- which was some of the best I have eaten. Some noodle dish which was meh. I didn't see any hibachi dishes or I would have gotten that. It was def not worth the money as far as I was concerned. My husband and daughter may go back, bit I won't go with them. read more

Good food, good atmosphere. First time here but it's good. They gave you an iPad to order. Easy to use read more

Okome House - looks good. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

I was sat in the detached room- it was FREEZING in there so be sure to bring a sweatshirt in case. Variety of rolls, however most are fried which is not ideal for most people. Lighting is very bright inside and not the most relaxing. Food came out fast. Overall, would rather go to another place. read more

Dan did a great job explaining how to order but it still took ordering twice to get used to it. After that, it was game on! The food was delicious, and thought the portion size was too small until about an hour in and found out they were the perfect size for trying many things on the menu. Great food and great service. At no fault to the wait staff, I do think the price is a bit high, especially during dinner. With the high prices and having a family of four, it's a place we may visit once or twice a year just for the dining experience. read more

Went during their soft opening. It's nice to have an all-you-can-eat sushi place and Wake Forest for once. They still have some things to work out. One of the big things is I had to request for wasabi and ginger and a dish for the soy sauce (they had soy sauce itself on the table already). Sushi is pretty standard it could be a little better quality but it does meet the basics and isn't bad. All the ordering is done on a tablet. One thing I would like to see is an actual drink menu because that's one thing that they don't have listed anywhere. I look forward to them fully opening and will definitely be visiting again. read more

AYCE sushi experience. The food is okay- the setting is okay. Overall it's just okay but it's AYCE, so it's about quantity experience :)

This was my 2nd time here and both visits were consistent. Came for dinner on Sunday evening. Food was great. Service was fast. Monster roll, seared pepper tuna appetizer & Shrimp shumai are my favorites! read more

The sushi was delicious! My only complaint on any of the food was the edamame (it was over cooked and took longer than expected to come out) and the crab ragoons (the first set we ordered was PERFECT, but the second batch was a bit soggy and had hardly any filling.) My next complaint was the service. We had only been checked on once, and we had ran out of water relatively early. Our server was also a bit rude when I had requested a side sauce (it felt like she was annoyed that I had asked for it.) The floors were EXCESSIVELY slick with NO signage informing that floors were slippery. I was watching employees and customers alike slip and slide non-stop, one customer almost fell directly onto our table.. it's a HUGE hazard. Lastly, the building has no noise reduction. I could hear every conversation, dishes clanking around, and it was very echoey. As someone who has an auditory processing disorder it made it very hard to enjoy my meal. I'm hoping eventually down the road I can have a better experience, today just wasn't that day. read more

Went on day 2, so still during their soft opening. Everyone was extremely friendly and the server assigned to our table came by several times to make sure our drinks were full and to take plates away. I wasn't expecting much presentation from an AYCE place, but some of the rolls were beautifully plates, with one of spider rolls having a spider design made out of eel sauce on the plate. Sushi was fresh and the fish looked great. Well worth a visit! read more

It was quite different. That's for sure, in order from a tablet, and they bring you very, very small portions When they bring. You the noodles you ask for protein and you might get 1 or 2 little things approaching. It's really a rip-off to me. Guess it was OK, but I probably won't go back. I will stick to mizu. It's the best in wakeforest. Or sushi Siam.....sorry but true.... It might be. For some people, but not for me for my family. read more

Hostess seemed like she was a little hard to comprehend. We keep asking for a table that we could keep our 6 month old seated in his stroller. She kept taking us to booths and then stating that my son could not stay on the carseat. When asked if we could have a table she points us to a table with the same instructions. When we asked about the second room of seating, she stated it was closed.... even though families were being seated. We simple were asking for seating where we wouldn't be in anyone's way. We left.... if I can't have a meal with my fam and not feel a nucience or crowded then No Thank You... besides they have a 91. grade anyway. read more

If you've ever said I love sushi but always feel hungry and broke after eating at those poo poo palaces this place is for you. Order all you want as the price is capped.

I went here to see how good they were with the all you can eat sushi menu and was pleasantly surprised at all the selections. The service was excellent and my choices were delicious. I have eaten at every sushi place in and around Wake Forest and my favorite has always been The Thai Cafe well, I now have a new one and Okome House is it! Their prices some people will think are high but for what they have to offer it can't be beat. It is less expensive on weekdays for lunch so that's when I would suggest to go for all the sushi lovers. But to entertain family and friends they can accommodate large groups. I definitely recommend them to everyone! From appetizers, to soups, to main courses and of course sushi their quality of food is off the charts!!! read more
