First one in and I walked from the hotel Lela only 1/2 mile away. At the recommendation of my super sweet server I tried the fire cracker shrimp which was a regular specialty on he table placard. I also noticed the cod miso which intrigued me so I order it. What brought in though was the Hamichi Kama which I ordered also. On top of this they brought out a black seaweed/gyoza sample. The. On top of that since it is my birthday week they brought me the green tea mocha. Wow to say I am stuff was an understatement. So since this was a progressive ordering situation which I created the food came out sort of mish mash. I started with black seaweed / gyoza sampler. It was awesome. I would have ordered more had I not already ordered . Then I moved on to the bang bang shrimp. 8 breaded shrimp with their version of bang bang sauce. Plump shrimp with a chili sauce. Not bad. The sauce was just a chili style sauce and so left some to be desired. Then the cod miso came out. Wow. Super hot and had actual chunks of cod and veggies in it. Very good. Then the Hamichi Kama which came out. Amazing. I had this before in Japan and in West Virginia. Amazing. Definitely a recommend. Then they brought out the green tea mochi with green tea ice cream. It was the best I have ever had. Amazing meal definitely needed the walk back to try and walk some of it off. The restaurant is small and reservations are highly recommended. Definitely worth the trouble and I plan to return in the future to try some other items.

Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in Wilmington!

I ordered the sashimi lunch combo, which included 9 pieces, chef's choice, and a California roll. I had the choice of a starter, so I ordered the salad with ginger dressing on the side. The only negative comment is that the tuna had a lot of the silver "vein" which should have been removed. It made it hard to eat, although the tuna itself was very tender. I also had hot green tea, which was nice to have on a cold day. Service was just okay. She never came to the table to see if I needed anything. And as I left, I thanked her but got no reply. For the amount of sushi and salad, it's a very good deal. I will definitely consider this place again for lunch.

I have only two experiences in sushi restaurants in Wilmington. Both were excellent experiences. We were immediately served at the bar and well taken care of by Savannah while waiting for our party. My husband ordered a vodka soda with lime - perfection ...tasted like a sprite. I had a sweet unfiltered cold sake- love how it was displayed on a bucket of ice. Our party of 7 were placed in the back and most of them were already familiar with the restaurant. Some of them had vegan entrees and the tofu, rice, & vegetable entrees they ordered looked plentiful and delicious. Some ordered sesame chicken or seafood. They all looked colorful and delicious. My husband ordered a bang bang spicy shrimp appetizer. Very well cooked and filling. I had escolar sashimi - tasted like melt in your mouth fatty tuna with a buttery texture. I ordered the Super Toro Roll: Spicy tuna, avocado, tempura flake top with blue fin toro, jalapeno sauce, chili oil, fish roe and scallions . It was a scrumptious & large specialty roll. It was more than I expected - high in taste, quality, and quantity. Our server was very pleasant and efficient. She refilled our drinks & expedited our meals in a swift manner. I was told there were two Nori restaurants were in Wilmington, yet this was the better of both restaurants. We enjoyed our time here and plan to visit Nori at this location again.

I don't usually write reviews but this has happened too many times and the "we're sorry" or "we'll give you a $10 coupon" isn't enough. The past 4 orders have constantly missed something we've both paid for and requested verbally whether we picked up the to go order or go through Uber Eats. This time it was the fried rice, last time the Yum Yum sauce, before that the sushi roll, etc. I called and asked for the manager, Jackson. He apologized like they've done everytime and then offered a $10 coupon for next time. Sorry I want my fried rice. I've ordered from Lucky Star for 15 years and they've never forgot rice or sauce or anything. I then asked for the owner just to let everyone aware before leaving a bad review. Jackson immediately replied that "you're not going to like my answer she's out of the country for the next few months"....he was right that's not the answer I wanted...I wanted my rice! Just another example how bad management & leadership will lead to bad service. It's a shame cause the food (when you get what you ordered) is good. I would highly recommend against ordering online unless you're ok getting a "we're sorry excuse" when your food that you paid for doesn't show up.

We arrived 25 minutes later and the place was still packed and more people arriving. You pick your food up on the left side of the restaurant. Super quick process. Would have loved to eat there. It's super cute outside and the koi pond is cute. The rice was phenomenal, it was late by the time we ate so we kept the rest for the next day and it was even better. The mango sticky rice was ok, not the sweetest mango. Prices were reasonable. Would absolutely recommend this place!!

The miso was out immediately while they made the poke bowl. The soup was tasty with quite a bit of seaweed. The poke bowl was a nice size and was as tasty as it was pretty.

Pure taste wise Mr Sushi falls quite short; the only sushi rolls that we ordered I thought were worth their price would be the Super Crunchy Roll and the Scorpion King Roll, but even those were nothing special. However, as of 3/31/2026, Mr Sushi offers some insane value - on Mondays (and another day) their speciality rolls are 50% off... kind of crazy to be selling these rolls at $8 twice a week imo.

We ordered the miso soup, house lo mein noodles, house udon noodles, sashimi platter, Racine deluxe sushi roll, super duper sushi roll, and Godzilla sushi roll. Everything was okay, not stellar. Miso soup still had some flavor, but not as much seaweed as I would prefer. Usually, I would slurp up miso soup quick, but I was tired of it after a few spoonfuls. I didn't like the eel sauce on the super duper roll and I didn't like the spicy mayo on the Godzilla and Racine deluxe roll. The beef, chicken, and shrimp from the noodle dishes were tender.

They were kind of hard to find, but in a small shopping center catty cornered behind a Valero gas station. The server was attentive and kind. I ordered the Bulgogi and Galbi combo which was $38. The bulgolgi alone was $32 and I'm accustomed to it being around $22. I don't eat very large portions of food, so expected to have leftovers, honestly. I did not. The flavor was very good. I asked about refills of the very, very modest portions of banchan (sides), which I'm used to being free and was told that they would be $3/ea, so I declined. I will plan to just get Korean food when I'm in a bigger city unless I can find another option in Wilmington.

You really can't go wrong with any of their appetizers. I am pretty sure we have had all of them by this point and we have yet to be unsatisfied with any of them. Must try!
