Description

Raw Sushi Bistro delivers inventive, flavorful sushi and cocktails in a spacious, trendy setting that buzzes when busy. Diners praise fresh, well-crafted rolls, speedy service at times, and friendly staff, though experiences vary; service can be slow, orders forgotten, and special requests inconsistently accommodated. Expect higher prices, lively noise levels, and some heavy fried preparations that may not suit purists. Overall a tempting, crowd-drawing spot—great for adventurous sushi lovers but with occasional service and consistency issues to be aware of.

Although the prices might seem a bit steep for the 209 area, the portion sizes make it worth it. The servings are quite generous, with most dishes providing enough for two meals for those with smaller appetites. This is a place I would gladly revisit and recommend to anyone nearby.

Despite the long wait due to the crowds, it was absolutely worth it. Our food was incredibly delicious, and the service was excellent. We will definitely be returning. You won’t be disappointed! This is endorsed by The Godfather.

We walked in and found the place bustling, and without a reservation, we thought we might not get a table. However, the restaurant turned out to be larger than we expected, and we were seated right away. Raw Sushi is an excellent spot for sushi and hot entrees; we enjoyed everything we ordered and will definitely return. The service was exceptional. Our server was incredibly friendly and took the time to explain the menu to us. We wanted to sample several dishes, and we did! Our food arrived promptly, but we never felt rushed. Everything we tried was outstanding. The ambiance is charming, and the restaurant is impeccably clean; it’s clear they take great care of the place. We parked on the street without any issues. We ordered the Nigiri and Roll combination, which was fantastic. It came with five pieces, including a delightful California roll. We also enjoyed fried oysters, which were equally delicious—all incredibly fresh. We sampled several of their specialty rolls, including the BTS, salmon, and tuna steak, and found them to be wonderfully tasty. The snow crab California rolls were among our favorites, packed with a good amount of crab. For our entrees, we had sesame chicken and grilled salmon, which ended up being the highlights of our meal. The salmon was perfectly cooked, and the chicken was superb. The prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of food we received, and overall, we had a wonderful experience.
