City Market Sushi

Top-tier sushi. The sashimi chef’s choice was melt-in-your-mouth fresh, and the spicy tuna dynamite roll had insane depth of flavor. Even the green tea crème brûlée was on point. Quality, technique, and flavor all hit. Easily one of the best sushi spots in North Carolina.

Took myself on a last minute solo date and was not disappointed! I waited about 10-15 minutes to be seated where Aaron greeted me to make sure I had everything I needed. He gave me recommendations for sake and sushi which really hit the spot! Overall, he was a great waiter: Efficient, helpful, courteous, etc. Now for the food and drink: The suigei drunken whale hit the spot if you like sake and for a glass the portion was very generous. The true star of the show was the spicy tuna dynamite roll. Perfect blend of spicy, crunchy, and flavorful. Highly recommend! All in all, 100% recommend this spot for date night, getting together with friends, or even just solo time to treat yourself!

What a fantastic experience. This is the first time that I opted out of using soy sauce at a sushi restaurant. It’s that good. Great quality fish and beautiful atmosphere. Will definitely be back! Shout out to Aaron for taking care of us!

Hidden sushi gem in Raleigh! Excellent quality sushi. Beautiful atmosphere with low lighting and soft music. The waiter was attentive and courteous, but the host subtly pressured us to finish eating before their evening rush.

City Market Sushi has to be one of the top sushi restaurants in Raleigh. The fish is incredibly fresh and every bite tastes clean, high quality, and well prepared. The restaurant has a dim, elegant interior that gives off a high-end, intimate vibe, and the food definitely matches the atmosphere. The staff is attentive and knowledgeable. It does tend to fill up on weekends so definitely plan ahead and make a reservation if you want to avoid waiting otherwise, you'll end up getting takeout like I did.
