About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
  • Healthy
At Raisu, the focus is on providing the freshest fish and excellent costumer service. Our fish flown in from Japan twice a week. On a level comparable to other high end sushi restaurants, yet for an affordable price. Traditional nigiri (served with freshly grated wasabi) comes with signature toppings. Reserve ahead of time for Omakase, which is available in limited quality.

    Don’t get the crunchy tuna roll- it tasted like an overly salty tuna salad. Otherwise, most of the food was pricey but good.

    We go here for special occasions because the fish quality is superb. The chef was able to work with dietary restrictions and the ambience was everything we expected for a quiet intimate dinner. It was been over a year since we last returned and the menu has been updated. Will continue to go here for special occasion dinners.

    It was our first time going to Raisu and Paige was exceptional in giving us plenty of recommendations and bringing our food out in a timely manner. The food and drinks were delicious, specifically the lychee martinis and the lobster rolls are a must try! Definitely worth checking out for a unique dinner experience!
