    Salmon Don, miso, salad and sake
    Cody K.

    My family and I typically eat there once every 3-5 weeks and we love it. Staff is friendly and talkative and the food tastes great. I usually get the salmon don with miso and ranch salad. Today I had to rush so I called up about 5 minutes out and they made my food for me before I got there, had a table with my salad and drink and swiftly brought the miso, salmon don and then the check as I finished each. I was in and out in 13 minutes with only half of my rice to go. Great service, friendly staff and delicious food! Picture is from April '23, but it's the same meal I had today. Yumm

    Best hole in the wall sushi place in Fayetteville. The server we had was incredible and so sweet. She was hilarious too! Get the hand roll!

    Sushi sampler add surf clams and octopus sushi. Italian brewed Asahi dry hopped Japanese beer.

    This place is a true hidden gem. Small quaint spot off of Hope Mills. The staff are friendly and straight to the point. I came for the surf clams and octopus sushi. I'm not a roll guy but they looked amazing coming out. The salmon is always fresh here. They will make anything into a bowl or a roll if you desire and it's not on the menu.

    I just moved here coming from a big city and searching for good asian food have been VERY hard. This place is a hole in the wall. I was surprised when I came in. Their sushis are awesome. Price is reasonable AND they have a promo of buy 3 rolls get 1 roll FREE! I saw they got sakes and beers too so I can't wait to comeback and do sake bombs! Cheers!

    The service was amazing 11 out of 10, staff was so kind and helpful, fish is fresh like it was just caught. Overall 10/10 sushi restaurant

    Deluxe Bento Box

    The food was INCREDIBLE!! You wouldn't necessarily expect it when first looking at the exterior of the place but [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere inside is cozy and very welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was very good as well and even though they had ran out of the mochi, the server was very apologetic and everything went extremely well. The portions are also quite large! Me and my friend shared the bento box. Would come here again!!

    This is my favorite restaurant in town! Before i moved here i was recommended by someone in Raleigh that said they have the best sushi around. Totally accurate. I love all of the sashimi it tastes so fresh! I will get the Mexican roll usually but there is also a roll that has white sauce on it that is very good. Their gyoza is also AMAZING. I go at least once a week and will continue to do so.

    I am visiting from AZ for work for two weeks and decided to come in tonight for dinner. It was just…read moreme so I sat at the sushi bar to eat. My server was very helpful with suggestions and tended to all my needs, she was great and I'm annoyed with myself that I can't remember her name I got the hibachi filet and the crazy boy with no masago. Food was amazing! I'm pretty picky with hibachi but this whole meal was perfect for me. It's a lot of food, I had to bring it back to the hotel cause...it's a lot lol, they aren't skimpy with portions! I highly recommend. It's a smaller hibachi place than I am used to from when living in Texas and the atmosphere was brighter than most hibachi places but it's very welcoming and just because it's not a huge place doesn't mean you shouldn't try it!

    We visited this restaurant as a group, hoping for a fun entertaining dinner. Two of my friends…read morewere first time Hibachi diners, so I had high hopes for their first experience. Having been to several Hibachi-style restaurants, myself, I had an idea as what we could expect. This was not the case, here. In the past, I always enjoyed a more theatrical element during hibachi meal preparation. By current definition, it should be an entertaining event with the chef, making jokes, doing culinary tricks, and showing off remarkable skills. Nope. First, we had to wait a long time for the chef to show up. They seem to have been short handed since it only appeared that there were 3 chefs at work. When our chef finally showed up, he seemed bored and irritated, and had the demeanor of a line cook. He simply prepared the food, cleaned up, and left. Not at all what I was used to. No conversation, no onion volcano, tricks with the egg, no fake ketchup bottle with string... no personality. Also, much of our meal was left out. The waiter forgot our salads, never paid us much attention, never bothered to re-fill our drinks, and seemed just as indifferent as the chef. The vegetable portion of the hibachi meal was also missing broccolli and mushrooms. It was as if the veggi delivery truck didn't showed up that day. I was pretty disappointed having talked-up the experience to my friends, who were just as bored watching some guy listlessly cook their food. The thing that really bothered me was that for the price of the food, you DO pay a little more for the experience. Without that, it just isn't worth the price. I can see why they automatically added the gratuity. We could have just gone to the buffet on Bragg blvd. and saved a lot of money for the same meal. The restaurant was also dark, dingy, greasy, and in desperate need of renovation. With so many other dining options available in Fayetteville, we will not be coming here again.

    If you know what you're getting into, this can be a great experience…read more First off, the $30 price seems steep, but you know that's the price of just hibachi or 2 fancy rolls at any other sushi place. The sushi I had was decent and comparable to other local places. But I also had a great tuna tataki,, and rock shrimp, and a soup and salad, and then gyoza, and a shumai. Some was mediocre but none was bad. Some was spectacular. The bad? Yes, there's a 'if you order it, you have to eat it' rule, which honestly makes sense seeing how many customers try to scam a full order to sneak out. Order something. Eat it. Then, try something else. And yes, the mediocre fried rice is a filler . It's still a very good deal that'll leave you painfully full. Just don't be greedy. That tataki was great.

    I finally went to the new(ish) Sushi House (1812 Skibo Rd) and loved it! This was another…read morerestaurant, and you can tell by the chairs and sinage that they are still transitioning. The lunch is $18 and dinner is $28 for all you can eat. There has been a lot of talk on some of the food pages that you get 90 mins to eat and will be charged for uneaten food, but we did not experience either of these issues. Our server was Jasmine, she was so nice and took great care of us. I will say that not all of the rolls are on the lunch menu, which is why I wanted to try it for dinner first. I had spring rolls and then dove in head first and ordered a lover roll, a salmon lover roll, a yummy roll and a naruto roll. Husband had gyoza and steak hibachi. I thought the presentation was really good, and all the sushi was delicious and fresh. Hibachi may not have been fresh, as it was a little cold when it came to the table. The bar in the front seemed like it was a happening little spot to wait for your table, and you can also order al a carte there if you dont want to do the all you can eat. There was a 30 minute wait for us at six in the evening on a Saturday, which isnt too bad, we walked around a nearby store until they called to say our table was ready. I will definitely head here for a solo lunch as I am the only sushi lover in our house.
