It's always tough to find that right place to get sushi. Price, quality and atmosphere. Tasu is the place for that. The sushi is top of the quality chain, the buy one roll get one free makes it the perfect price. The atmosphere.... you choose what you like; sit down like a restaurant, sit at the sushi bar or eat outside, whatever your fancy. If you are like I was, searching for that great sushi place, then look no further. The Hurricane sushi roll is fan-f-tactic!
I went to Tasu today for the first time and the food and service were phenomenal. I got the drunken noodles with shrimp and it was amazing; it had so many fresh vegetables and cooked without all the extra grease. My boyfriend had the pan seared lamb that was equally delicious. I will definitely be coming back to try more food from the menu!!
Best hot and sour soup ever. 2 for 1 sushi rolls and a great menu. quick lunch time service and friendly staff. 9 beers on tap
Great Sushi. I wasn't a sushi fan before Tasu. Their eel is amazing!
One of my favorites. I have never had a bad experience at Tasu, and I have been many times. If the waiter ever makes a mistake (mistakes do happen) it is always properly corrected. I love the food. The pad tai noodles are my favorite, and you can never go wrong ordering the lettuce rolls. Tasu is one of my favorite places to go out to eat with friends and family.
Service leaves a bit to be desired. The food however was very good. Factor in the BOGO on all sushi and for the money...you can't go wrong. Try the Bonzai roll!
Wow. I loved this place. The sushit is always buy one get one free and its sooooo good. And the hibachi chicken. Damn. So good. Go here now!
Bad Service. We had Sushi and Soup and Dumplings for our lunch, the Dumplings came the same time with the Soup
I hate that because by the time we done with the Soup the Dumplings are cold, the Service is very poor,
back to Warajis on Duraleigh Rd, this is by far the best Sushi money can buy.
Have read several reviews unhappy with service, I think it really depends on server and expectation. Will they win service awards? No, but they also won't ruin your night. I was in on Tuesday and we had a wonderful meal. The sushi rolls are delicious, and the portions are generous. We have tried the tom yum soup and the miso, both delicious. My boyfriend's favorite is the beef and garlic entree. I took tan tan noodles to go and enjoyed them twice for lunch this week. Anticipate a wait on weekends, and be patient with your server, then enjoy!
Fast service, friendly service and great roll selection. Wide variety of sake as well.
Meal Deal. I just came from my first dining experience at Tasu, and I was pleased. Who doesn't like a buy one sushi roll, get one free deal? My friend was brought one roll different than what she ordered, but was not charged for the extra roll. Awesome. She ended up having three rolls for the price of one, and the waiter took responsibility for the mix-up. I appreciated that service. Our rolls were yummy, but note to self: stick with water. The soda was $2.50. Yowza!
Best Sushi In Raleigh. The service does blow. I'll give them that. But I've found that if you just "man handle" the server, as in boss them around and spell it out for them, it's not so bad.
That being said, this is HANDS DOWN the BEST sushi in Raleigh. It is the sister restaurant to Shiki in Durham. I moved her from Chicago and prefer that all my rolls not be cover in 1) spicy mayo 2) eel sauce 3) both like so many other sushi joints do around here. Maybe it's a southern thing. I don't know. Sushi is about simplicity, subtlety, not covering everything in sauces, deep frying every roll, etc. My favorite roll is the Special Negero Roll (NO SEAR) any roll that comes with a sear tastes like propane from the torch they use to sear it. I don't know why they do it, I just write No Sear on the ticket and it comes out just fine.
So yes, the service blows b/c it's a bunch of teenagers who don't care. And the manager is a dick. I've had to argue with him a couple of times. But I keep going back b/c it literally is the ONLY place to get passable sushi in Raleigh.
Place was not crazy busy and great atmosphere. Food was very delicious and with great presentation. See pics for the food we had. Will be back !!
Their sushi is always fresh and great! Service is outstanding and they have a cool and friendly staff. Hands down the best sushi in town!
Been coming here to Tasu at Brier Creek for years and love the staff. From management and waitstaff to our favorite Mandy (go see her at the bar area, she has her own sushi roll named after her even).
Like a lot of other restaurants though I feel the last couple of years have bruised the place a little. It’s definitely time the owners put a little money into it and remodel or at least clean it up. As well I’ve noticed other reviewers mention the food and / or food quality. While I usually get sushi I have noticed others in my party not being particularly satisfied with their meals. Testing a bite myself I fully understand their disappointment.
I hope they can get back to the standards they once held because it’s a wonderful place to grab food and drink and of course meet new people at the bar. Remember the “Mandy Roll” when you go, you’ll be glad you did.
Have come here a couple of times for their sushi which is excellent. This time I got the Bento Box which was the perfect amount of everything! You got an app, salad, sushi, and entree. I will definitly be going back for the Bento Box!
Restraunt is clean and service is great.
I’ve been coming to Tasu for years. I have to say the sushi is some of the best (and Bogo!!) you just have to purchase a drink. Chicken and pork gyoza is so delicious. I always get two rolls and either the house fried rice or the curry fried rice. You can’t go wrong with either. It’s a huge portion for two people, and always plenty left over for the next day. It’s hard ho find bogo sushi in the Raleigh area that’s good and this Tasu definitely delivers with the quality and presentation of sushi and all of there other dishes! Always would like to add our server was attentive and welcoming!
Place is amazing! Our server was killer! Pay whatever he wants and more. Yes, he was that good. I dark wish i knew his name. Dark hair gentlemen working the lunch rush between noon and 2 pm.
Loved everything we ordered. The food is plentiful and delicious.
Their food is amazing! I dined in with My family and ordered house fried rice, eel fashion and thaiphoon rolls. Max, our server was very attentive and friendly. Tasu had become our Friday night out spot. Great food and ambiance with affordable price!
Went for a dinner date with my fiancee. All I can say is WOW. Their sushi is amazing. We had the Manhatten roll and Shanghai roll, and it was AMAZING. Best sushi we've had so far. A little pricey, but you get a free roll if you buy one roll, so it balances out. Mixed drinks are delicious. We had the jade Buddha and some peach sake, and both are phenomenal (and they gave us enough to get a bit tipsy!). The atmosphere is overall peaceful, and the place is quite large. Food took a bit to come out, but it was worth waiting every second for. Our dessert was some sort of cake-banana concoction that was absolutely amazing. I couldn't get enough! I would give Tasu 6 stars if I could! GET OVER THERE AND FREAKING EAT! NO REGRETS!
Very good! I love the BOGO sushi and have never had a bad roll. Now that I’m pregnant, I’m happy that they have a wide variety of cooked sushi rolls! Not many sushi places have very many options for cooked rolls. I also love that they have very good non-sushi menu items so my husband, who doesn’t love sushi as much as I do, can still get tasty food. This is one of my favorite restaurants and I will definitely be back! Highly recommend this location over the one at Waverly Place. The staff is so much nicer here.
