We're from CA where we have a vast diversity of foods so we've been exposed to just about every type of food. I've been exploring Charlotte finding the "it" restaurants and this will definitely stay on our list.
The sushi rolls aren't dry like other sushi places out here and are quite savory.
The service is good and the price is decent.
I will be a regular at this restaurant.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Deania M.Charlotte, NC161819Nov 24, 2023
SO! DISAPPOINTED! Sushiya were you sold to a different owner? Cause this ain't you. I found this place years ago and always bragged about them being the best sushi in Charlotte. The rolls were huge and delicious!
Fast forward to today, I ordered the Playboy Roll and the Texas roll. NEITHER were worth what they cost. The Playboy roll had a microscopic amount of roe. And both are much smaller than this place used to make them. This is Harris Teeter grade sushi at this point.
It's a sad day for me. Yelpers please hand me a pint of ice cream and a tissue as I mourn the loss of the former best sushi in Charlotte.*sighsHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 2 - Feb 25, 20241 check-in
Let's start with a good first. It's a nice interior, clean, restrooms, daily specials. Waitress was attentive and friendly. I enjoyed the Miso soup but the ginger salad dressing was too runny. I asked for extra wasabi and Sriracha and was very generous portions.
Shrimp appetizer did not taste fresh and that became a theme as our meal progressed. Mixed vegetables had a funky taste and my roll was soggy. At least they had the tall Sapporo.Helpful 1Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 1 - Cherilyn G.Polkton, NC71216Mar 28, 20241 check-in

Stopped in for lunch .
Menu has great variety and prices are good.
We started with vegetable tempura. Followed by seaweed salad and house salad. Seriously the ginger dressing on house salad was sooooo good.
Then we ordered a Drunken lobster roll and a Yakisoba Steak with noodles & vegetables.
It was all just delicious.
The entire meal was delicious.
Service was excellent and I would say this is definitely a place to put in rotation!!!
Two thumbs way up!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jun 8, 2023Updated review24 check-ins
This restaurant has become a go to place for Sushi for our family.
Every rolls have been delicious and I love the Chirashi here.
Service is attentive most of the time.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Nov 23, 2021Previous reviewThis is a local favorite on this side of town at the Arboretum Shopping center. The Bento box here come with so much food I could never finish it.m so it's good value.
This time I took a chance and ordered Chirashi. I normally ordered this dish at Musashi because their Chef choices always included more than just basic Tuna, Salmon, and white fish that most places put in Chirashi. I was pleasantly surprised at how good the Chirashi was here. The fish selections were impressive and included a few pieces of Toro. I would definitely order this again if I can't make it to Musashi. - 4804203030Aug 18, 2023
Wow! If you want sushi in Charlotte, come to Sushiya Japan! They had such an amazing selection to chose from on their menu! The waitress was awesome, and she even made a few recommendations. When we got there at 8pm on a Thursday, the place was packed. Literally. We got the last available table. I did not think it would be so busy, especially later on a weeknight. That just shows how good this place is! There were people of all ages and ethnicities, and it was such a fun crowd. The sushi came out relatively fast. You could tell it was super fresh, and my volcano was still very hot! (I wasn't expecting that as I shoved a whole piece into my mouth!) The service was great, and everyone was super nice. I love that there's lots of parking out front too. I'll definitely be back!

The place was great except for the service, quality of food, and cleanliness. Other than that it was great! I loved to wait by the door packed with 10 other parties as none of us got service. Would recommend to anyone looking for a bad day

This place doesn't disappoint. I been to this restaurant couple of times already and still impress the amount of food that they gave you. The service is always great and food is also good. From the outside it might not look impressive, but the food is great. The value is great for the amount of food provided. They have sushi and Korean dishes. I like their Korean Beef Bulgogi. Will come back for sure.
