Great sushi in Corolla. Gave this place a try as the other sushi place was not open. Ordered over the phone, it was quickly ready. Went inside for pickup and it seems it's the place that locals go in the offseason. Nicely decorated, tables or sushi bar. Staff very nice. Food typical for quick sushi. May go back again. read more

I have really only had the sushi but its been great every time. Nice clean place and fast service. A little pricey but hey its obx!

This place may be Corolla's best kept secret for sushi. The place itself was quaint but had enough space for my walker. Everything we ate was fresh and delicious we also had two ichiban beers. The service was very friendly and accommodating. I think my favorite bites were the gyoza and the spider and fantasy rolls because they had real crab. I definitely would come back again. read more

This review is for a 4 roll carryout to-go order for dinner. We've been here a few times before, always for eat-in - definitely recommend this place for its fresh and authentic sushi and Japanese fare. The place is tiny inside - neat and clean and suitably decorated, nothing fancy but the super reasonable prices make up for that. Check out the menu screenshots I posted from their website. For authentic sushi - and there is LOTS to choose from on the menu - IMPRESSIVE. They offer classic as well as specialty rolls (with some creative roll names!) - the classic rolls were good enough for us but the specialty rolls looked tempting too. For 2 of us, the 4 rolls we ordered to go were all freshly hand made to order, delicious and plenty filling. See my pics. Also paired well with our glasses of wine. :) read more

"They treat me like a king down in Okinawa and I may never come back no more" (Ry Cooder) We had a few hours to spend in Corolla before our Wild Horse excursion was scheduled to depart, so we journeyed over to the Timbuk II plaza and had a leisurely and very enjoyable lunch at Okinawa Sushi and Grill. We dove into their big lunch menu and my wife chose a Hollywood Box with a California Roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, seaweed salad, a spring roll, and a side of white rice ($14). I went with a Miso soup ($2.50) and a Spicy Chicken Grill Bowl with broccoli, squash, carrots, and white rice ($13). My lunch was great! The sauce in the Spicy Chicken Bowl delivered a lot of heat to accompany all of the grilled chicken chunks and nicely coat the veggies and rice. Service was wonderful, and the young lady that took care of us was as friendly and just plain "nice" as could be. What a great place to eat in Corolla! read more

I can't recommend this place enough - the sushi is fresh and delicious, outrageously affordable, and all the staff are kind and patient (especially with the mix of unnecessarily rude vacationing customers). Every year, we can't wait to dine in or get takeout from here. There are also a number of other non-sushi menu items that are yummy and flavorful. The only thing I could possibly criticize is that they ought to raise their prices (I don't know any sushi place that serves high-quality sushi at such a low price). Thank you for always an amazing eating experience! read more

We sat at the sushi bar which was fine . My husband ordered the chicken bowl, he was told it would take 15 minutes. It came out and the chicken was cooked alright but it wasn't hot. If you are willing to wait, your food should be hot. read more

This sushi is excellent and accessible, and the quality is close to our favorite on Alameda Island, CA. Try the lunch specials! The Yube roll is out of this world. They will also generously loan you big sauce squirt bottles, like spicy mayo, for the table if you ask. Note: can't recommend the veggie fried rice, as it has no egg and is mainly just soy sauce rice with some al dente broccoli pieces. read more

Sushi lovers look no further! High quality, impeccable fast service, super clean and friendly staff. We came for an early dinner and loved it so much we had to come back for lunch a couple days later! The white tuna is highly recommended. The lunch specials are perfectly proportioned and offer a nice variety. Authentic, FRESH and perfectly simple. We sat at the sushi bar and had a nice conversation with the chef. Truly enjoyed our visit(s)!! while we were in town. read more

Great sushi! Can tell the seafood is fresh! The teriyaki chicken bowl was great as well! 10/10 definitely recommend!

From the begging the service was great!! Waiter was very attentive and made sure we were enjoying our meal. The food was very tasty! We enjoyed the nigiri, soup and multiple appetizers. Highly recommend this place! read more

Okinawa Sushi was exactly what we needed during a week at the beach. We liked it so much we ordered it twice. The wait staff is friendly and the prices are reasonable. Will visit during every Corolla trip. read more

My wife and I are sushi connoisseurs from Los Angeles, CA. This is, no exaggeration, hands down, the best sushi we have ever had. The quality of fish is amazing. Seafood of this caliber in a seaside town should only be experienced raw. Friendly kind people providing amazing service. We were introduced to white tuna for the first time that has become my new favorite fish. Not only a recommend but a must for anyone looking for the highest caliber seafood while visiting the Outer Banks. read more

Great little spot in Timbuck 2! The sushi was nice and fresh. I ordered the tuna roll, the salmon roll, and the spicy tuna roll. They were delicious! I'm obsessed with crab Rangoons and these definitely hit the spot. I highly recommend grabbing some sushi and then walking around to shop! read more

Finding good sushi when you're from out of town can be hard... You're always a little worried that you'll leave sick this place was amazing. great service and awesome sushi. Small, homey, family run. really loved the Fusion rolls and the pork gyoza was exaxtly what I was hoping for! Highly recommend! read more

We ordered food to go. It was ready quickly. We had spicy salmon, spicy tuna, the Boston roll, California roll and shrimp tempura. The spicy rolls were good, but could have used more spice. The Boston roll was a hit and definitely a favorite. The shrimp tempura roll was ok, but not a favorite. One member of our party got the beef bowl, it looked delicious and she loved it. read more

Very good fresh sushi. The rest of the menu was standard Japanese food good quality. Friendly staff and fast service.

We got crab Rangoon, gyoza, and about 6 or 7 different sushi rolls. All were absolutely incredible. Especially the blackjack roll and the yame roll. Highly recommend. read more

We were headed to another nearby restaurant when we made an audible to accommodate our kids. Japanese fare is comfortable for them, so we happily made the change in plans. Okinawa is a small, but inviting space. Staff is friendly. Facilities are clean. Sadly, the food is shopping mall-food court-level mediocre. Notably, the prices, however, are NOT shopping mall-food court-level dollars. The chicken teriyaki bowls were left unfinished by both boys, which ...um, never happens. My daughter's shrimp yakisoba was undone by overdone shrimp. The miso soup was what it was supposed to be. Yay? As forgettable as the kitchen items were, the sushi was more disappointing. We ordered an assortment of nigiri and rolls. The quality of the fish was average to below average. Even more telling, the sushi rice was poorly seasoned. Yes, the quality of the fish and how it's handled is prime, but the care with which the sushi rice is prepared can sometimes be as revealing as to a where a sushi joint sits on the spectrum of good to bleh. On the merits of the food, generously 3 stars. Taking into account value, maybe closer to 2. read more

So good! Nice staff and good sushi. We got our sushi fast and the place was clean and nice. read more

We ordered takeout sushi from Okinawa and it was ready in about 30 minutes.I got a lunch bento box which included 2 types of sushi, a spring roll, white rice, seaweed salad, and a green salad. Everything was prepared perfectly! read more

Tried to eat inside, but was very loud as the restaurant isn't acoustically sound. So we decided to do an online order and get it to go. It took over an hour to get our order and the restaurant wasn't crowded. The meal was $60 for 2 people and the portions were tiny and the food was decent. read more

The food was ok, but the thing that made this a horrible experience was hearing a worker there coughing and hacking so bad that it was just disgusting. With today's climate of COVID, no one should be working in a restaurant like this. It was extremely disturbing to sit there listening to this while waiting for our food and eating. Nearly walked out which would have been a first. Really not happy with the situation! This was an awful experience. The management should really think about this. read more

Absolutely love this place. Great food even better service look forward to coming here every vacation.

Cute little sushi bar. They have a fairly decent sushi menu and a limited teriyaki menu. Very attractive interior. Indoor and outdoor seating. Food was decent, but white meat chicken a little dry. Service was okay. They aren't open for dining during part of the afternoon. read more

Don't even try to order here if you have any allergy or need any accommodations. Wouldn't roll my sushi without rice for a food allergy although that is not asking too much. Don't order here. Go somewhere else if you can. Extremely rude staff. read more

I liked this place a lot. It was easy to grab a spot and get a quick bite. The prices are moderate, the sushi is good, and the staff was friendly and attentive. It's a no frills spot but I was a fan and my family and I came twice that week. Everyone inside seemed to be having a really good time and pleased overall. read more

Solid food, reasonable price. Basic Party platter for sushi was eaten by all with no complaints. By far best value for $$ is the Yakisoba noodles with chicken and chicken fried rice! read more

Very yummy! Our favorite was the OBX box, which had a spicy tuna roll and the volcano roll. It has drinks as well which is EPIC!

The food was very good. The volcano roll was great! Spring roll and shrimp tempura were good also. Highly recommend.
