BEWARE OF THE RED PEPPER SYMBOL on the menu!!!! If you love spicy, indulge! If you are sensitive or can't handle spice, run faaaaar away from these items. Most places put a pepper symbol and it's not spicy at all, but this single red pepper symbol means business!!!!!! I'm sensitive to spice at the moment so eating my food was a bit of a marathon....but in a good way! Think runny nose & sweating hot with tons of delicious flavor. To start, we served wonton strips with a white yum yum type sauce which was a nice surprise. For our app we had the crab puffs (crab ragoons) which of course were not spicy, perfectly crispy and had the right amount of filling. I also ordered a dragon roll which came out after my main entree since the sushi bar was backed up. This actually worked out perfect because the cream cheese in the roll was a great way to calm the spice in my main entree. The mango and crab on the roll were very fresh, and the size was also pretty hefty for being an 8 piece roll. I could have easily made this into a lighter full meal. For my main entree I got the spicy basil with chicken (red pepper sign alert!!!), brown rice and miso soup. The miso soup was good as expected, the brown rice was cooked to perfection and served in a side bowl, and the main entree was plentiful with perfectly cooked veggies & chicken! This dish brought the heat but in a very good way!!! I couldn't get enough of that spicy basil flavor!!!! I only ate half the dish so looking forward to a delicious lunch today! Can't wait to come back and try more of their dishes but while I'm sensitive to spice at the moment I may avoid the pepper symbol for a bit! read more

Ended up here needing an easy casual spot to have lunch at a midpoint for a friend meeting me from Raleigh. They had a pretty decent lunch special menu, following the fairly standard "pick two or pick three" basic sushi rolls with a soup and/or salad format. It was maybe a bit more basic than most sushi places, but I did find a trio that I enjoyed. The salad had a really nice ginger dressing, but was that basic mostly iceberg salad that most Japanese places do. I got the lunch pick three combo, with the salmon avocado, spicy tuna, and the spicy yellowtail (which is really also spicy tuna). Everything came out pretty quick, and the restaurant had a nice comfy environment to chat. The tea was pretty weak. The sushi rolls themselves were just good, nothing surprising but also nothing disappointing. Fish tasted clean and fresh, which it's hard to ask for more from a place like this. Would come back for a future lunch rendezvous in Mebane. read more

Met a colleague here since it was halfway between Raleigh and Greensboro. They have a really good lunch time deal where you can get 3 rolls for $20, and it includes salad or soup. The salad and sushi were both fine. Our waitresses were very attentive. Worth a stop in if you need a quick and cheap sushi meal. read more

We got takeout for my sushi loving boyfriend's birthday dinner. It was our first time trying them. Next time we will dine in. It is cute and cozy inside. We had a big order so we had to wait a bit but we got some boba and had a seat. The staff was super nice. Everything was delicious and we were really impressed. We just moved to the area and we are really happy to have a sushi spot near by. The menu is huge so we still have a lot to try. They have bento boxes, hibachi, teriyaki, ramen, rice, salads, and other entrees. Also take the spicy symbol seriously. We love spicy so it was great for us but definitely got some menu items that pack a punch. Can't wait to go back! read more

I ordered the vegetable Lo Mein (without mushrooms & onions). I've had other dishes here, like the veggie curries, that were great. But this Lo Mein is the worst I've ever tasted unfortunately. The noodles were mushy and overcooked. The "sauce" basically tasted like oily vegetable broth. As you can see from the veggies in the picture, they are just oily without a char and without any flavors. The dish honestly just looks bland as you can see. I can't tell if this was cooked in a microwave or an actual wok because there's no caramelization of any flavors. Nearly $20 for this dish on top of that. A lot of locals prioritize this place over other smaller Asian options here in Mebane but I'm not certain if I'd return for anything based on this waste of money. read more

Pad Thai was red and gritty. They used a powdered/dry sauce base and didn't rehydrate it properly. It also means they're not really cooking from scratch. The "mongolian dish" was bland. Maybe their sushi or hibachi is ok, but they're thai & chinese dishes are to be avoided. There are much better, if less well appointed, restaurants only a few minutes away. read more

Great food, nice atmosphere & great service! We have been to this restaurant a couple of times and have not been disappointed. We asked our server for suggestions and she offered some of her favorites, which I think is great! I truly valued their opinion on what she liked versus the "a lot of people order..." response. We tried everything she suggested and enjoyed it all! Try the ramen, sushi and don't skip the ginger dressing which we enjoyed on the avocado salad. read more

This place has soooo much to choose from, and has delivered every time on flavor!! It's a great place to hop in and get some delicious food, great service, and all set in a cutely decorated space conveniently located near the highway and a grocery store. There are options from multiple Asian fares, and it would take quite awhile to try everything! The crab rangoons, though are super crabby and are a definite must!! read more

The Bulgogi bowl was amazing. And sooooo much food. I wish I could've finished it all. It's in a strip mall but doesn't feel like it once you're inside. The service was friendly and the food came out quickly. read more

We were visiting the area and found this place with some help from Yelp. We are veteran diners of Chinese and we know good Chinese food. We all had something different and we all loved it. As we left, I was jealous that my brother who lives there had found a great new Chinese restaurant (as good as any in my home city of Columbus, OH). read more

I'm so happy I stumbled upon this casual sushi spot in Mebane! I met a friend for lunch here over the weekend and we were both pleasantly surprised. It wasn't busy at all when we arrived at noon, and I only saw a few more patrons coming in during our meal. I was kind of shocked about that, but it's in a shopping center down from Food Lion, so maybe location? Either way, the restaurant is super clean and beautiful inside, our waitress was wonderful, and above all, the sushi is excellent! Super fresh and an amazing deal! They offer 2 rolls for $17 or 3 rolls for $22 (I think even cheaper lunch specials!). With this deal, you also get a soup or salad. The rolls were a great size and again, so fresh. I had the Alaska, Spicy Yellowtail, and Mango Avocado roll. My favorite was the mango! The sauce they use on top is delightful, a hint of sweet but not overpowering. I loved the ginger salad dressing and the dip offered with the wonton "chips" for the table. I will definitely be back here and my friend who lives an hour away said the same! I can't wait to try some other dishes here too such as their hibachi or even more elaborate rolls. Check it out! read more

Visited the restaurant on Juneteenth after a day of shopping at the Tanger's and didn't quite like dining options there. Looked for the nearest Japanese restaurant and found this on Yelp. We were very peckish at this point and figured we'd give it a try. The ratings looked really great, especially from my fellow Yelpers so we figured we'd be happy. Happy to report that the food was good. Not great but satisfying. My wife ordered steak and shrimp bento box and I ordered a Philadelphia roll and a chirashi sushi. I was taken aback when I saw the way they served the Chirashi sushi dish. The traditional way was to serve that in a bowl. Instead, they served it in a plate sashimi style. While I don't really mind some variations, but the total deconstruction of the dish wasn't something I anticipated and admittedly don't like. One of the few saving graces about this dish was they served sushi rice. Nonetheless, I wasn't particularly enthused by it. I'm a stickler to the traditional way the food should look. With that, let's grade the entrees. The bento box for my wife was a B. The oyster appetizer was a B+. The philly roll was a B. The Chirashi was tasty but the presentation wasn't appealing. I'm giving it a B-. The service was attentive and helpful. No complaints. The ambiance is typical of most strip mall restaurants. Pleasant, quiet and clean. All in all, it was a good experience. Would I come back? Maybe, but I'd like to visit other restaurants in the area that have the same number of stars. read more

Followed the strong reviews here on our trek between NCSU and home. Started with the special 'hedgehog' roll which was wonderful. Seaweed salad and summer rolls both fresh and large portions. Hubs had the spicy basil, which was good and not over the top on heat. I had the dynamite and North Carolina rolls, both well done. Restaurant is clean and lovely. You won't think you're in a Food Lion strip mall! Service was delightful and fast. Would definitely stop here again! read more

The menu here is almost overwhelming. Now in my experience when you have an exhaustive menu, particularly when you mix, Korean Chinese Thai and sushi you sometimes get mixed results. However, for the most part, the food here is very good. I personally am not a fan of their sushi it's not the best. The service and the value is very good. read more

The rice in the sushi rolls and California rolls have no flavor at all. I've never eaten sushi like this before. I usually do not write reviews, but the food here was terrible. read more

Great food and friendly staff. Lovely atmosphere and presentation. The bento boxes is a nice way to get a variety without over indulgence.

The food here is really good, I loved the hibachi. The restaurant vibe was okay, it was really silent, they did not play any music. The service was good, but I would definitely order to go next time. read more

I had sushi from here on my birthday and it was cut super thick and tasted old, it was disgusting

This place is fabulous! Great food, great ambiance, and great service! A friend recommended it, saying it was awesome and she was right!

Ordered chirashi for three tonight, picked it up and when I got home realized it's now half the size but same price. They've replaced half the fish with cucumber slices, which is redundant considering it comes with a salad with plenty of cucumbers by itself. I understand businesses are trying to navigate inflation but I'd rather pay more and not get tricked into buying three appetizers leaving all of us hungry having to make a second dinner now. read more

We were very pleased. Our waitress was very attentive. The spring rolls delicious. Our meals, shrimp and scallops habachi was perfect!! The restaurant was very calming!! We will be back soon!!! read more

We love Asian Harbor! Today my husband had his favorite shrimp and scallops hibachi, I got something new to me the Bento box with sweet/sour chicken rice and spring roll! Everything was excellent! I also enjoy the jasmine tea! If you are not familiar with this place it's in The food Lion plaza. This restaurant is cozy but so clean and wonderful. The music is soothing too. They have sushi, serve some alcohol too! Put it on your list. Everything I'd cooked fresh, Angel our server was friendly and so professional. We love the owner . Always remembers us! It's our FAVORITE restaurant! read more

Food was good - fresh, flavorful and quick. Service was even better. Was driving through on a cross-country trip and forgot my debit card after paying. I realized when I was 2 hours away. I called and asked if they would mail it to me. They were very sweet in offering to do so but also diligent as they asked a few questions to verify I was the owner of the card. They put it in the mail the next day and even sent certified. Support great small businesses like this! read more

Great sushi excellent service went for lunch .. had the pick two rolls both were good spicy tuna and spicy salmon liked the fact the rice was not so thick around the rolls read more

Okay so this place is pretty decent for inland North Carolina. I'm visiting from out of the city so we are used to having a ton of sushi restaurants that serve only sushi so they have really good specialty sushi. This area only has several sushi restaurants to choose from. While their sushi is still pretty good, it tastes like grocery store sushi that is packaged and sold in containers (which isn't bad, just not sushi restaurant quality good). I did find it interesting that they served sushi, hibachi, and Thai food all in one restaurant. Once you are seated, they give you a small complimentary plate of wonton crisps with a dipping sauce, which were pretty good and a nice little touch. The Panang Thai curry was really good, would definitely recommend, but I would not recommend the pad see ew noodles. There was too much sugar so the dish was really sweet, a lot sweeter than normal. The carrots were cut unevenly so there were a few big pieces of carrots that were barely cooked and pretty raw. Service was great though, it was really slow for a Saturday night and there were a lot of workers, but everyone was really friendly the whole time and our server was really nice and checked on us often. read more

If you want great Thai food with reasonable prices, this is the place. It had good reviews so we gave it a chance and we weren't disappointed. The staff were super friendly and portions were big , delicious, and very reasonable. If you love Thai food this is a must. They also have a great selection of sushi as well as Hibachi. They have it all. Definitely will go there again. read more

What a pleasant find here in Alamance County. I was looking for outstanding restaurants in the area and when I stumbled upon this place via Grubhub I had to try it out. Everything from the extraordinary customer service, the food and presentation of this place is great. I had a order that was never picked up by someone and the restaurant called me to let me know they would stay there until I could arrive. I have never had any restaurant ever do this when ordering from a delivery service. Needless to say I order from them at least 2-3 times a month. read more

We have very few decent Asian restaurants in Mebane and have had some hit or miss luck with Asian Harbor. The biggest problem is consistent product. What we enjoyed one visit is not the same quality the next time. On a whim we decided to try some sushi: what a costly mistake. Not only were the rolls excessively overpriced, they were incredibly small. There was no difference between any of the fish: it all tasted the same. Needless to say we have sadly learned our lesson. read more
