Mr Tokyo is not my favorite choice for all you can eat sushi, but the price is unbeatable and there are a couple of gems on the menu. I specifically really like the jalapeno yellowtail dish, and I’m a huge fan of the fried noodles. The fish isn’t the best quality, it tastes fine but I’ve definitely had higher quality sushi. But the rolls aren’t bad and I can eat a lot.

Sushi was ok. I like the Teriyaki steak. Good price. You have a 90 minutes limit and they will charge if you cant finish your food so dont order too much.

For the price, this place is absolutely amazing. The lunch special here is so good. This is definetly a golden find. Staff was amazing and super nice. Only issue was the wait time. But definitely worth the wait.

I’ve never gotten a bad meal here. They’re always busy for good reason. Just understand the protocol and you’ll be fine. 1. All members of the party need to be present before being seated. 2. If you order way more than you can eat while you’re there, you gotta pay (either to toss it there or take it home so just take it home or better yet, only order what you know you can reasonably finish. No wasting food!) Order your first round, then if you’re still hungry, get more. 3. They close between 3-4 each afternoon and the dinner menu is slightly different from the lunch menu. 4. Eat at your own pace, but don’t dilly dally for too long after finishing. They expect to turn tables at a reasonable pace, and if you’re camping out while other people are waiting on a table, that’s not cool.
I bring these things up because I once witnessed a woman going ballistic on the manager (possibly owner?) because she expected to be seated before her party arrived, even though it clearly states y’all gotta be there together right on the door. They run a tight ship, but the food is delicious and the price, especially for what you can get is incredible. The Carolina roll and the gyoza are my absolute favorite menu items, but it’s all fantastic. Service is super quick.
I did say there is “plenty of parking” because technically there is. But it’s in a busy strip mall and if you want to park near the restaurant, you may need to circle a few times. I just usually head down towards Food Lion and walk a bit.

Delicious Sushi and Edamame. This place can get very packed very fast since due to capacity so plan accordingly. Nevertheless its got some of the best sushi in the area and I cant wait to go back. The edamame was yummy also.

My favorite place to get sushi and hibachi in the Triangle. Can you perhaps find better sushi at some of the high end Asian restaurants? Sure, but for the price and the variety, Mr. Tokyo has everyone beat. Also, it’s all you can eat — how can you ask for more? We’ve visited for every occasion: proposals, birthdays, graduations, just a weekend adventure and the staff/food deliver every time.
Things to know: the lunch menu is cheaper than dinner but they also have a slightly reduced selection, so keep that in mind. This place will fill up with the lunch crowd so either show up early or expect to wait a while (30+ minutes). Lastly, they take a break to transition to dinner. I believe last call for lunch sushi is at 3, but the staff will definitely warn you if you’re cutting it close.

This restaurant is great. The food is delicious, the pricing structure for all you can eat – made to order sushi is brilliant. Very good value for people with larger appetites. Staff is kind, efficient and the ordering process is smooth. The only draw back to Mr Tokyo is how successful the restaurant is. This restaurant can be an absolute nightmare around dinner time due to it’s popularity and limited dining space. This restaurant stays completely packed from 4pm – Close, with wait times often reaching 45 minutes – to an hour. It is long past time for this restaurant to expand to a larger location with more room to accommodate more patrons at peak hours and more room to upscale the decor providing a better atmosphere. Opening a second location would be an equally good option to consider if expansion isn’t a possibility.

If I could give no stars, I would. We called ahead to check their protocols but when we got there, the staff was rude and unprofessional. We asked if they could take simple steps like WIPING down the counter and using clean utensils before making gluten free sushi, but they flat out refused. They kept saying “that’s not possible” – using CLEAN utensils and wiping the counter is not possible? This experience was especially disappointing after seeing reviews from others with Celiac disease who described the staff as knowledgable and accommodating. Most establishments are willing to make small adjustments to ensure the safety and comfort of their customers but Mr. Tokyo is not.

I used to come with my friends all the time for the good yet cheap sushi, but today we decided to bring our gluten free friend to try it. We were all so so excited to introduce her to this place. Once we got there, our friend asked for her food to be made separately with cleaned utensils. The waitress was impatient and said she would ask her manager. She came back telling us that it just wasn’t possible. What does that even mean? They said they wouldn’t even clean their area, but isn’t that the bare minimum to keep a place sanitary? We went to talk to the manager and both times he had a smug and arrogant face and a very rude attitude. I won’t be coming back. Horrible service and rude attitude from all staff. Would give 0 stars if I could.
