I eat here occasionally. We have a few go to sushi rolls and the price is great for raleigh. However, it seems that every few times we order one of the sushi rolls is bad. We have gotten a bad soft shell crab and then last night we got a bad salmon roll. We get to go orders, so there is no real exchange or feedback option. I tried to give feedback directly but it seems yelp is the main option. Green curry is always good and has lots of veggies. But sushi is good only 75% of the time it seems. Staff is always nice and well organized for to go orders. read more

First time at Sushi Nine and it was fine. My husband and I had been told the rolls were BOGO, so that is what I initially brought us here. We went on a Wednesday night and although it was fairly busy we were still able to find a place to park. The restaurant is nearby NC State so it does fill up quickly with students - the earlier you go the better chance you'll have of not having to wait to be seated or risk not finding a parking spot. Our server was good; very attentive. We ordered four sushi rolls, beers and calamari. The sushi was pretty good. I did take off a star for the calamari. All rings, lacked of flavor, and served with a bland spring roll sauce. All in all the restaurant is worth trying but it won't be my 'go-to' sushi spot. read more

Eating out on the patio is your only option. We had a 20 minute wait on a Monday evening around 7pm. Thank you for enforcing mask usage, sanitizing between diners, having hand sanitizer available, using an electronic digital menu only, and save the Earth disposable plastic ware. All wait staff and sushi chefs were masked. We felt very safe dining here. The patio is nice, although traffic up and down Western Blvd. can be loud at times. I had hot green tea on this chilly night. And shared a bottle of Malbec. Both were nice choices to keep me warm while dining outside. My food choices were okay, nothing spectacular-- basil rolls were crunchy with freshness and my Pad Thai was good. It could have used a little spice/heat. As served pretty bland, maybe my fault for not asking. Generous serving! Sampled sushi from a friend, loved all four flavors of her rolls. Next time I will order sushi and forego an entree. Greatly appreciated being able to dine outside and we received really great service. That ask you to put your mask on when your server is present. Thanks for being there for us during this pandemic. Huge take out and delivery business going on. read more

I've been to Sushi Nine a handful of times when I was at NC State, and a couple times since the pandemic hit. I really appreciate that they have outdoor dining and that sanitizing is the standard. The best thing here is their deals. BoGo sushi always, and drink specials are great (like $6 sangria!). I like the scottish roll, and anything with scallops! read more

I haven't had a dish here that I didn't like! They have bogo sushi which always makes me happy. What makes me even happier is the sushi is good! Just an FYI if you don't like the sushi on bogo there maybe an issue returning it since it is bogo. My friend didn't like her "free" roll and wanted to switch the roll. There was an issue but the manager was nice and let her switch out the roll. I've also had the hibachi chicken and panang chicken. Both dishes were good with great portion sizes. read more

Still love Sushi Nine! It's popular, we waited about 20 minutes for a table for 2, on Saturday at 8:15. Worth the wait though! Sushi is always good, always BOGO. I got the Sexy Girl ($13) and Volcano roll ($14). Sexy girl was good, but not my favorite ever. Volcano roll was super unique and the flavors were spot-on. It's only 6 rolls though, but considering how much is loaded on top before being baked, it's def fair. My husband ate all of the Carolina roll (it seemed most traditional/raw, funny about the name) and loved it. The Yummy yummy was good too - I'd never had cooked and flaky fish inside a roll before! read more

The stars are for the food and not the service. We were a party of 6 so they automatically charged the tip, that's fine, but the service lady wasn't attentive at all, she was rude. I got dynamite and the volcano baked sushi both were so good. Don't get the ceviche, it has nothing to do with ceviche. The curry noodles were good. We came on a Friday at 12 and it got busy quickly so I would account for that. Parking lot that belongs to the restaurant has plenty of space. read more

First time here and it was easy to locate which was helpful. My waiter was Jaime and she was pretty attentive and overall good (highly recommended her.) The restaurant was clean. I put 3 stars because of the quality of food. It was okay sushi, however, I lost interest when I bit into the stem of the avocado. A piece was left inside of the sushi. Overall it's an okay restaurant, just wish the chefs were more attentive. read more

Words of advice...it's not the same Sushi Nine. Since the fire, I finally made a stop to check out the newly remolded Sushi Nine. As a long time supporter and fan of the original restaurant, the interior is much better, spacious, and well lit! This was the only plus. The sushi was not the same, I guess it's a new head​ chef and cooks? I know my sushi at sushi nine and it was way off. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. and decided to wait an hour for a table. We received the worst seat in the house by the bathroom hallway and sushi bar. We were given a heads up that we would have to wait approximately​ 45 minutes to an hour for sushi. We were okay with the wait since we've already waited an hour to get a seat. We ordered appetizers to pass time. We went with the gyozas and cream cheese wontons. They were average and nothing special. Let's talk about the main event! We ordered our usual BOGO sushi. When the sushi arrived, it looked a bit off. Let's just say that all 4 rolls were super off! It was tasteless and I'm not even exaggerating​. The rolls that I was used to had a punch of flavor without having to dip it into soy sauce. We looked at each other after the second bite and knew that something was wrong. Two years of waiting for my favorite sushi ​lead to this very moment... I don't know if I will ever return, possibly for takeout​ sushi but not the full dining experience. A sad day for sushi in Raleigh. read more

Ate here with my brother and this was the coloration on his salmon sushi. Not very appetizing. They didn't seem to mind the fish looked 1,000 days old even though it was "just a blood vessel". Told us we should know better...kind of a rude. We will not be back. read more

Delicious sushi for insanely reasonable prices. The food is always fresh and cool, very clean inside. The Scottish roll is top tier, but honestly everything is great.

Sushi Nine is definitely a solid place for sushi in the Triangle, and their rolls are affordable since everything is BOGO. My family and I ordered takeout a few days ago, but I have also been to the restaurant in person prior to COVID-19 and have enjoyed it every time. This time around, we ordered 4 rolls: caterpillar roll, lobster roll, sweet dragon roll, and syrax roll. All 4 were fantastic and tasted very fresh; I personally enjoyed the caterpillar and lobster rolls the most. Will certainly come back in the future! read more

It has been YEARS since I have been in this building! The remodel looks great. My first time dining with Sushi Nine and I enjoyed it. I would equate it with Sushi Iwa in Apex but not as good as Sushi Thai in Cary. The BOGO sushi rolls are on the small side but PLENTY to eat when you order two and lots of choices. The salt and pepper calamari was "fine" but very little salt or pepper LOL - no legs, just the rings. The sauce was bottled spring rolls sauce served in a plastic container. My husband liked the General Tso Chicken and the side Salad was good too. The service was a bit spotty but with two beers our lunch was $50. I plan to return to try the Poke bowls. read more

I hope I survive through digesting what I ate tonight! The quality has gone down hill & I'm unimpressed with the sushi I ate tonight! Don't get me wrong I might eat here again but it won't be the sushi I order! The rolls tasted NOT fresh & truly sketchy but maybe it's what I ordered? Normally I order specialty rolls with a lot of flair, today I ordered a spider and a Philly so my 3 year old could enjoy some.... Big mistake! Gross tastes, barely any eel sauce not fresh, scared I'm gonna feel sick. read more

I was surprised that Sushi Nine serves a broad range of Asian cuisine. It predominantly had Japanese food but also had a good selection of Thai. Don't know how that is though, this review is solely based on my experience eating sushi. Went in on a Friday for lunch and it was quite busy. The restaurant is pretty big, so that's a plus. The open floor plan makes it spacious too. They have a "2 rolls for the price of 1" deal on during lunch, which is great. You definitely leave with a full belly. Out of the two rolls I got, i enjoyed the firecracker roll more. It was super tasty with a good kick of spice. The food can take some time to come, especially if busy (which is what happened to us). All in all, a 3.5/5 kinda spot. read more

The new restaurant space is great! I was devastated when I learned that they had a fire that destroyed the restaurant. I attended NCSU and had come to Sushi Nine many times. I was very excited when I heard that not only did they intend to rebuild, but they would also have the same menu. A few days ago a couple friends of mine and I went to lunch. We decided to meet at 11:30 to beat the lunch rush. Firstly, the new building is much larger and more open than the original which is a plus! The parking lot is also larger as well. They also now have outside seating areas as well. When we went it was a bit chilly and wasn't a rush so nobody was sitting outside. The inside is beautiful! There's so much more room and it is very modern. The bar is larger and more well placed than the original building as well as the sushi bar. They have BOGO sushi like most of the other sushi restaurants in the area. They also have a large menu of other items as well. Although the sushi is really good, so are there other menu options. They have all types of Asian cuisine options! Their drink and sushi menus are also extensive. All of the sushi rolls I have had or tasted are great! I fell in love with the Drunken Noodles on one visit, so I frequently get that with chicken. Their prices are extremely reasonable as well. On this particular visit we ordered edamame to share. It was about $4 and was a large portion. There were 3 of us and we all got a good portion of it. Since we went for lunch the price for my chicken Drunken Noodles was $8.95 which is awesome, especially for a pretty good sized lunch portion. I have always had good service and had good service on that day as well. I have heard that since reopening wait times are lengthy, but if you know that going in then it shouldn't be too bad. I will definitely be back! read more

Service and food were just ok. The restaurant itself was very loud, thankful we ate outside so it lessened some of the noise.

My wife and I happened by this sushi spot and couldn't have been more happy. We sat right at the sushi bar. And got to see all the items coming out of the kitchen. Everything looked amazing. And when we got our order we could not believe how good it all was. We ordered 4 specialty rolls and each had its own distinct flavor. Sushi Nine should be called sushi 10! We give 10/10! read more

I came into the restaurant tonight and was told to sit at the bar. Which I was ok with because I was a party of one. When The bar tender asked me what I wanted to drink I said water for now but will get a beer with my meal. After about 10 min of looking over the menu I was ready to order and I sat there waiting for the bar tender to take my order. During my wait time a few more people came and right away got their drink and food order in a timely manner. I was there for 45 min and the bartender never once asked to take my order she ignored me the whole time. I got up and left. I was so disappointed in the service that not sure if I will ever go back. I never got to order!!!! read more

The calamari was not the best. Very hard to chew and didn't appear fresh. I did get the vegetable fried rice with fried tofu, it was very good. We tried the vampyress roll and the deep ocean roll. The deep ocean roll was good. The vampyress roll was a joke, and I'm questioning how fresh the sushi was. Other than that I would try again . I wasn't wowed by anything special. read more

The hostess is rude, incompetent & unpleasant at best. She acts as if she's doing you a favor by seating you.

They are very slow. We have to wait for foods we placed an order continuously. And it is not easy to find the person who is taking an order. Quality of sushi is also not good. They are kind though. read more

Really good! I went on a Wednesday around 6pm and it was pretty busy. We got a table just fine and the service was good. The sushi was delicious.

The atmosphere is nice with the expected Asian design influences. The menu includes everything it should - maybe even too many options. The prices are reasonable but the portion sizes are smaller than average. My main complaint is that the food is average to me. Doesn't seem particularly fresh or savory. It's not bad - it's just not great. If you're a college kid and want some sushi this is a decent option, but if you are into real deal hard core authentic Asian dishes and sushi I would recommend Waraji. Much more expensive and worth it. Also if you're into Sake Waraji has the best in the triangle. read more

Went here with a couple of friends that we were in town visiting. They raved about how good the food was! They were right the food itself was pretty great. Unfortunately, our sevice was absolutely terrible. It took nearly 15 minutes for our server to make it to our table to take our drink order and at least another 15 to get just our waters. The wait for our draft beer was even longer. With this being our first visit we wanted to know what our waitress recommended. She seemed annoyed by the fact that we didn't know exactly what we wanted. So we narrowed our search down to sushi... she said "80% of the rolls are good". Ultimately we just pick rolls that other Yelp visitors left a good review for. After ordering $130 worth of food and drinks and waiting 30 more minutes to get it we were ready to just eat and leave. read more
