    We ate at M Sushi multiple times and I am still amazed how good the dishes tasted every time! My husband, on the other hand, tried to mimic some of the dishes at home, such as the smoked black cod, and was puzzled why it never tasted the same. :) The waiters and waitresses have always been pleasant, knowledgeable, and accommodating

    The service is excellent. We ordered grand omakase. The ingredients are fresh and greasy. The location is right next to M Kokko (the location marked on the Apple map has offset to another building). The chef will introduce each item before it is served. Overall the experience is great but be cautious ordering if your digestion system is sensitive to food that is rich in fat (which also often means the food is of high quality, just don't eat too much).

    M Sushi has by far the best sushi in the Durham area. And service excellent too. Consequently maybe the hardest restaurant in tow to score a reservation - ha! A superb restaurant!

    My wife and I have been to M Sushi 5 or 6 times, and the experience has always been remarkable. Their sushi is as fine as any I've had in Japan. M Sushi is pricey, but I would be afraid to eat at a cheap sushi joint. We're going back for my birthday.

    This is an excellent sushi restaurant. Service was a bit slow as our waiter had a lot of tables in his section. Had the dumplings as an appetizer and they were excellent. The fish was sublime. Nicely cut (which after all, is the art of sushi) and very fresh tasting. I higly recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves sushi. A bit on the pricy side, but overall, worthwhile.

    Delicious food. Good quality of fish and Waygu. We didn’t know about “ other” items we could ask for as there was a non sushi person with us until we saw other customers ordering things on the menu. I felt the server should’ve been more forthcoming with that info when we asked him what could he recommend for non sushi people. They have no orange juice or cranberry to mix with liquor. Just an fyi if looking for a screwdriver. I would def go back as the food was superb!
