I ordered a side salad for an appetizer and two rolls (California Roll and Dancing Eel). Salad came out within 5 minutes of ordering and the sushi was about 15 minutes.

We opted to sit at the bar and it was cozy. The staff was excellent; knowledge and professionalism were on point. We ordered some hand rolls and the baked scallop roll. We also got an order of the tonkatsu. The Toro rolls were super delicious and the fish tasted very fresh. The salmon, crab and yellow tail hand rolls were not as good as the Toro. Just a bit fishy tasting. The baked scallop had a fun taste with added potato chip strings, I highly recommend trying it.. The tonkatsu was out of this world. The egg was perfectly cooked, the pork was torched and so delicious. The noodles were perfectly cooked and had create bite and flavor. This was definitely the star of the night. When I go back I'll get more Toro hand rolls and try another cooked dish for sure. Definitely recommend stopping by here!

Great sushi spot in downtown Raleigh!…read more Had such a good experience at Daijobu! They don't take reservations, but service was really nice and very quick, so it was an easy experience from start to finish. The hand rolls were a 10/10 and the crispy tuna rice was definitely my favorite. We also tried the chicken karaage, which was SO good. Everything came out fresh and quickly. I also really liked the price point for sushi here. It feels like a great option for a casual sushi night without spending a fortune. They're from the same team behind City Market Sushi, another Raleigh staple. I definitely want to come back to try the ramen next time! Would definitely recommend if you're looking for good sushi in Raleigh!

I was having a hard time finding a place in Raleigh that served quality ingredient sushi & was worth the price for the quantity. We found ourselves at O-Ku after a friend recommended this place as her favorite sushi in Raleigh. Immediately was impressed, as we came for my birthday & the staff signed a birthday card for me and gave me a surprise dessert. Excellent service! On my 2 year wedding anniversary we came back again bc we loved the sushi the first time and wanted to have delicious food on our special night. The staff once again surprised us with flowers on the table, a special printed menu that said 2nd year Anniversary & a dessert to go. This place is absolutely stunning inside as well. Beautiful restaurant, they also have an intimate outdoor patio with pretty lights. Highly recommend this place for a special occasion or even just a night out if you're looking for the best sushi in Raleigh! Love ya, O-Ku -- we'll be back!

My husband went to pick up the food, and it was pretty good. We had a generous amount of ginger and yum yum sauce to go with our four meals. Everything for the most part was cooked on point except my steak which was well done. I am a medium rare gal. The downside to this place is the outside. We went to the Food Lion in the plaza the next day and left out of another entrance that went by where my husband got the hibachi. There was at least ten guys out front. I don't want to judge, but I'll just say if it was me who went to pick up the food I wouldn't have even gotten out of my car. I believe there is a vape or smoke store next door and perhaps that is part of the issue, but that is what makes this a lesser rating. Feeling safe while getting your food is pretty important. Someone else had wrote about this on Google's reviews, and I didn't understand it until I drove by!
