It was our first time here yesterday. The sashimi was amazing. We also tried the rolls — everything was good, but I definitely recommend the sashimi. Thanks to Daniel for the quick service and the anniversary treat. We’ll definitely be back. Everything looked beautiful too😍
As someone that works in the service industry, I crave a good meal; a meal with good service, beautiful atmosphere, and phenomenal food. This place had all of the above. For my first time and certainly not my last, Rachel was our server and she was phenomenal! Rachel was kind, attentive, and the best service I’ve had in Raleigh in 6 months (at least). Sushi blues used to be my go to spot, but that’s changed. I only got a picture of the ambiance, but food was amazing and reasonably priced. We had sushi, udon, eel sandwiches, and the lemon marscapone cake…all of it was perfect. Best date night I’ve had in a very long time. Couldn’t recommend this place enough!
Sushi Mon was recommended by my cousins friend saying this is one of the best sushi place in the area and boy was he right. Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed all 3 sushi we got along with the Sushi Mon hand roll (little pricey) and the Mother’s miso soup. Everything was delicious and fresh. Sushi rice was properly cooked and seasoned which was very important to us. Definitely we’ll be back!!
Okay, so this 5 Star review carries with it the weight of 6 amazing years dining at Sushi Mon. From their first spot nestled in-between Zaxby's and an NCSU apartment complex, to their temporary cafe location during COVID, and now to their current, elegantly tiny space, we have dined at Sushi Mon for most of our special occasions in life. And throughout all of these years, their quality has only improved. Sushi Mon is always my recommendation when people ask for good sushi in the Triangle. I believe it's the best quality you can find in this area; rivaling, if not besting, the M Sushi empire in Durham. Even though it's not the typical, one-at-a-time omakase experience, their Nigiri Omakase has always been such a great option. Getting their Mother's Miso Soup (a rich and fatty miso soup with fish and cabbage), 8 nigiri, 1 temaki, and a slice of their castella style tamagoyaki all for under $50 in 2025 is a great deal. Their sashimi options have always been of high quality and beautiful presentation, with the addition of real wasabi, both grated and pickled (kizami). The truffle tuna roll is a favorite and my recommendation if sashimi/nigiri isn't your thing. And if sushi isn't your thing, their small plates are also all delicious and expertly crafted. All in all, if you love sushi, you will never be disappointed at Sushi Mon. We have eaten Michelin star sushi in the US and experienced omakase in Tokyo, and Sushi Mon always hits the mark. Also, they only accept walk-ins; reservations are only taken on Valentine's Day.
This place is buzzing with energy! They don’t take reservations, so we ended up sitting near the entrance of the office building — but it was totally worth it. The atmosphere is lively, and the sushi is fresh and beautifully prepared. Next time, I’ll try to come earlier to grab a seat at the bar and watch the chefs work their magic. Highly recommend if you love great sushi and a vibrant vibe!
