I went 1 month ago to celebrate my birthday and I can't stop raving about this place! Having worked at a sushi restaurant before, I had high expectations and all of them were met. There is a good reason this place has a 4.9 stars! I'm excited for the next time I visit 🫢

I've worked at one of the best sushi restaurants in the US, and this place blew me away. The decor is inspiring, the service is exceptional, and the food is out of this world. The flavor bombs this sushi chef drops on your tongue will dazzle your taste buds and leave you fully satisfied. Who knew sushi could be this good in Raleigh, NC? If you like Japanese food and sushi, this place is a must visit. Wish we were here longer so we could go back for more! We sampled a sizeable chunk of the menu, and nothing disappointed. From the flowered sushi cups to the flan, all I can say is wow.

Love the bar area, it almost feels like an omakase experience. The dishes are creative and you can tell there is thought and care behind them. The service was also quick and thorough. The staff does an excellent job talking you through your dish once it arrives. We will be back and I highly recommend.

Absolutely wonderful experience! The staff accommodated our need to shift from a table of 4 to 6 people. Our server was excellent -- attentive without being intrusive, friendly, very knowledgeable about the menu, provided options for those at our table who are gluten intolerant, and managed our complicated bill at the end with ease. The ambience was lovely -- very unexpected for the location! And the food was exceptional! Highest quality sushi I've had! I highly recommend this spot!

This place is in my neighborhood and I've been dying to try it, so I took my husband and our friend with us! I wasn't sure what to make of the place because there wasn't a menu available on their website and it seemed to be suggested to make a reservation to ensure seating. I had no problem making a reservation for 3 at 6pm. When we arrived, we were promptly and kindly seated. The interior of the restaurant is thoughtfully laid out and tastefully designed/decorated. I loved that the lighting was on the dimmer side, but that the kitchen and prep areas were well lit. It created a lovely ambiance, and felt very sensory-friendly. We had Wendy as our waitress. She was very kind, attentive, and helpful throughout our meal. She even went to grab the bartender for us when we had a question about the sake that she was unable to answer. We appreciated all of the staff, as they were very sweet and seemed to work well together as a team. Wendy was awesome and we hope to have her as our waitress again when we come back! The food was absolutely INCREDIBLE. I have truly never had better sushi in North Carolina than at Uglyfish. The cuts were delectable and fresh. The plating was gorgeous. And
