Alert to those with shellfish and dairy allergies - this business is AMAZING and extremely careful to all of us who have special diets. For my personal case I'm allergic to avocado and dairy. These are two foods that are commonly found in modernized American style sushi. Love the variety and price point considering how ENORMOUS the portions of food are! Make sure to bring your appetite because they will not be giving you tiny portions of food. Service is consistent and always at a higher standard than most chain restaurants. Waiting time - typically not terrible considering they have the bar option seating available if you are pressed for time. Insider tip - the business has multiple locations in the triangle if this Durham - South point location is not the most accessible to your current location. They have a to go option close to the 15-501 location near Chapel Hill / Durham. Put DSW into your GPS to find this location. If you are closer to the other edge of the triangle and bordering Cary try Tasu! Beautiful interior design and wonderful opportunity for insta-worthy shots! Highly recommend.

Final visit to this place, it's really crappy. The quality of food seems to have evaporated over the course of covid. I can't imagine this massive restaurant staying in business without Corp lunch crowd. I'm certainly done giving it a shot. Great location if near southpoint, but that's all it has going for it. read more

food was really really good and the sushi was also amazing. we split the veggie spring rolls and they were very good as well !! not overpriced at all and we enjoy this place a lot and will be coming back ! (btw i really enjoyed the beautiful flower) read more

Shiki Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

While very clearly stated on the menu and transparent when I went, the restrictions on the buy one get one promotion is very strange to me as it discounts the lowest cost rolls for the entire check, not the individual persons order. So if one person gets 2 identical bogo rolls for $18 each and another got 2 identical rolls for $9 each, both $9 rolls would be free and the two $18 rolls would be full priced. This made the cost so much more than I would have typically expected and not worth it to me. read more

I gotta give Shiki 5 stars simply because it's a reallllyyyy nice place and I love there ambiance. This is a great place to bring friends as they have an abundance of space with lots of tables and even a few party rooms. The place is always full of customers laughing and talking and I just love it. The food is amazing. I've had several dishes from Here and they have all been award winning. The sushi is amazing and the pricing isn't bad. They officially do BOGO on sushi all day! Come heck out Shiki!!!! read more

sushi rolls consisted of rice & fish, nothing else: no seaweed, no strips of Avacado or cuke! also the rolls weren't perfectly round,maybe prepared by a non- sushi trained chef? (Just praying cleanliness , refrigeration, & freshness were kept in mind & practice for my health's sake!) I won't be returning ... read more

Did you know that Shiki Sushi has an event space? Well they do!! I attended a wedding reception at the Shiki Sushi banquet hall and it was great! There's a sign above the door on the outside that says "banquet hall" but the doors are really tinted so it may be hard to spot. Once inside, there is a beautiful chandelier!! The food was all catered by Shiki Sushi and it was really great. The restaurant provided an all inclusive menu with variety. Appetizers - egg rolls, a variety cheese platter, bruschetta, and other items Dinner - lamb chops, chicken breast, mashed potatoes, veggies, fried rice, salad, dressings, rolls (they all had fancy names & special sauces but of course I can't remember lol) There was a bar with a great selection. We also had sweet tea, unsweet tea, and water. read more

I have been coming to this place for years. Sushi used to be a fancy, anniversary splurge type meal for me and my husband. Now, it's more of a Monday night girls' night kind of place. :) I went last night with a friend and, as usual, we had wonderful service. If you get a drink, the sushi is buy one get one free (which i think is pretty common, at least around here). I got rose and my friend got a local beer. The drink menu is pretty extensive, and they have specials every day. We split 4 rolls, and enjoyed all of them. One favorite is the Special Maguro roll- so delicious! The ambiance is really nice for a girls nice- lots of comfy booths, not too noisy, and we never feel rushed. The time prior to this I was with a larger group of friends on a Saturday night and we had to wait maybe 30 minutes (they don't take reservations), but it wasn't a problem because we expected to wait. Definitely a favorite! read more

Shiki Sushi - Buy one get one free rolls! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

TLDR: this was an unusually disappointing experience. The food was really good, but service and ambiance were so poor I just could not ignore them. I may perhaps get some food here to go, but I will not be back. Things I liked: - The food. You wouldn't imagine that a sushi place serves wagyu burgers that taste heavenly. Their sushi is also fantastic! Things that could be better: - the ambiance: the seating area is huge. This would ordinarily be ok, but there just weren't enough people and servers to warrant that. I was there Sunday afternoon, so there should be a lot more people. - the dessert menu that was on our table was really dirty. There were no chopsticks either. While I may not use them, many people prefer to at least have them at hand. - service was poor. I tried hard to have as much compassion for our server as possible. He seemed tired, and later in an attempt to explain the poor service he told us that he was sick in the bathroom. These things should have warranted that server taking a break and having another server take over imho. read more

Shiki Sushi - Gross dessert menu. It doesn't take much to change this - Sushi Bars Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

Unfortunately they removed all of their good rolls from their buy one get one free promotion and did not reduce the prices for those rolls. That promotion was the only reason I went to Shiki Sushi because otherwise they were way over priced. I will no longer be going to their restaurant. To provide more context, their current price points are more expensive than M Sushi which is a joke. I would go to M Sushi over Shiki Sushi any day. read more

I've been coming to Shiki Sushi since it first opened, and I have to agree with other reviewers in saying that, while the atmosphere may have improved, the food has unfortunately done the opposite. Everything I've had on recent visits has been okay, not great. Things I like about Shiki: - huge restaurant so it usually doesn't take long to get seated even on weekends - easy parking - pretty nice atmosphere - clean and modern - service has been attentive and friendly - the Thai tea is yummy, the tempura is pretty good, and the ginger dressing is perfect Things I dislike: - way too much rice in the sushi! The ratio of fish to rice is pitiful and it really doesn't feel like I'm getting my monies worth, even with BOGO - the flavors just don't wow like they used to and many of the rolls are just slightly different variations of the same thing read more

Great sushi and excellent service. Had not been there since 2015 but it did not disappoint. Their offerings have changed and it is not as popular as it once was. We were there on Saturday, June 1st at 7pm and there was no wait for seating. That honestly surprised me. read more

Others have alluded to it, but wanted to make sure everyone is aware. They have removed the buy one get one offer on the majority of their 8 piece roll selection. They made no public announcement of this other than the top of the menu after you've already arrived and sat down. Anyone who eats here with any regularity knows how shady at best this is, and we will be dining at other sushi eateries moving forward. There have been some comments trying to point out they still offer it on their base model rolls, but it's less than 10% of what they used to offer on the popular 8 roll selections. read more

Shiki Sushi is the closest sushi place to me so I had to give it a shot regardless of the bad reviews. Y'all, heed the bad reviews. The one good thing I can say is the BOGO. So even though the sushi wasn't good at all, at least we didn't pay full price for it. On to the sushi - the only decent roll we had was the Pink Lady which is wrapped in daikon. I'm guessing the daikon along with the ponzu sauce were the only ingredients that has ANY flavor at all which is what made it edible. All the other rolls literally tasted like...nothing. I deconstructed my rolls to see what the problem was and it turns out, every single item was totally flavorless. read more

I've been coming to Shiki for years because I live nearby. As others said, the quality has declined somewhat over the years. In my opinion, still a good roll. I'm writing this to let people know of yet another recent change in the beverage policy with buy one get one sushi -- now everyone who is eating the sushi must buy a drink, even if it's paying for the water. The food: I've only had the sushi here. My go-tos are the volcano roll (oven baked California with scallops, roe, and spicy mayo on top, my favorite), special maguro, special yellowtail, Caribbean, and bonsai. Quality is really hit or miss depending on the day. Rolls generally average $15/roll, which turns out to be $15/2 rolls with BOGO. The drink policy/service: BOGO sushi only available with a beverage purchase. When I came years ago, there was no such extra requirement. Recently, this policy was changed AGAIN to everyone who eats the sushi must purchase a beverage. I was frustrated, and I asked if there's a misunderstanding since this has never been the case before. The waitress then brought out the manager to explain the policy, which I would really much rather not do due to the extra hassle. The manager then explained that we can purchase the water as a beverage to satisfy this new requirement. So I'd go with that option if you don't want a drink and/or eating with a big party. I really wish 1. The beverage policy would stop changing and 2. If there are changes, train all staff to be able to explain the details. The waitress was very nice and attentive the remainder of the meal. Atmosphere: large restaurant with bar seating, seating next to the sushi, and pretty nice decorations. No complaints. read more

Shiki Sushi - Front: volcano; middle: special yellowtail and special maguro; back: bonsai - Sushi Bars Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

The menu is big, especially the sushi menu, so if it's your first time here and you're getting sushi, you will have a lot of fun looking through all your options. They have a great sushi deal where you buy one roll and get another free with the purchase of a drink. So boyfriend and I got four rolls (Manhattan, Crazy, Special Yellowtail, and Nemo), calamari, and a Thai iced tea. Rolls were good (4/5). The calamari we didn't really enjoy because of the sweet sauce that was already on it. We thought the sauce would be on the side. The Thai iced tea was a little different than the average Thai iced tea, but not necessarily in a bad way. It's nice that they have so many options on the menu, especially for sushi. Prices are a bit on the pricier side, but it was a nice atmosphere. Taste | 4 Atmosphere | 4 Presentation | 3 Service | 4 OVERALL | 4 read more

Great atmosphere and staff (MATT) bartender Durham location is amazing would rate him 5 stars alone. I have been coming to Shiki/TASU for about 10 years now all locations. Decided to come with friends after raving about the buy one get one sushi rolls. Only to find out that not only did they limit the sushi items for buy one get to two small sections you still have to buy a beverage. Not to mention they had a time frame were they offered speciality rolls that were not good but still decided to add them to the actual sushi menu. Grant it they dropped the prices to some of the most expensive rolls down back to the price they were years ago do not change the fact that are no longer by one get one. Examples: Tar Eel and Ultimate favorites That is how easily a favorite restaurant that I would rate 5 stars because of the quality of food , service , and specials became a 1 star restaurant. They did not think this through. read more

Ordered take out tonight and experience and food were disappointing. When placing the order over the phone, the staff slowly entered in the order for a poke bowl. As he entered the toppings, he continued to miss half the ones stated. I corrected him, and he would go back and add the other toppings. He had me repeat things several times. He reviewed the entire order and, again, missed about 1/3 of the ingredients. I repeated it and he repeated back correctly. He only asked for the first name for pick up. No last name was given. When my husband went to pick it up, it took awhile to find the order as the staff attached my last name to the order (I assume from my number). Further complicating things, they charged his card twice and still got the poke bowl order wrong. It was missing about half the ingredients we ordered. The rest of the food was corrrct but flavorless except for the Ultimate Roll. It's been awhile since I've eaten here but in previous years it was great with great service. I would no longer recommend. read more

Came in Friday for lunch with a couple of coworkers. We arrived around 11:30am and it was pretty empty inside. I ordered the bento plate while my coworkers both ordered the Thai Ginger lunch special. My bento plate was good, however, one of my coworkers got brown rice but it turned it to be so hard that it was inedible. When he complained, the manager came and offered another bowl of rice. When he said that it's now mixed in with the rest of the Thai Ginger, she kept saying you can get the rice off. She was trying so hard not to offer a new plate. I'm really shocked at why they can't just bring out a whole new Thai Ginger or replace it with something else comparable. I mean, is $10 really worth losing customers over? Anyways, the customer service is pretty deplorable. We're definitely not returning. read more

This is probably my favorite sushi place in Chapel Hill/Durham area. The sushis I have gotten so far does not disappoint at all! Tokyo Sunrise and Hurricane are a couple of my favorites. They have buy one get one option and it ranges from about $10 to $17 depending on what you get. But totally worth it! As for the appetizers, you can never go wrong with crab rangoon and tuna tartare! Service is always pretty good. They're all very attentive! read more

I have been to this location numerous times. After exploring other sushi places, this is by far my favorite! They have a genius deal that if you buy a drink (alcoholic or fountain) you get the buy-one-get-one sushi deal. Pro tip: Get two that are the same price so you don't lose too much $$. The place is huge and more on the fancy side. It's a great date spot with A LOT of booths available! They are able to split checks so it's a great spot for a big group as well! From the numerous times I've been here, I had great friendly attentive service from the waiters all but one time. The sushi here never fails! My favorites are: Shiki Crunch, Caribbean, and Bagel. The portions are more than generous especially for the pricey! I usually have left overs to take home ^.^ TLDR: one of the best sushi places in the triangle area. Great quality cheap prices! read more

So my husband found Shiki Sushi for us for dinner, and not having checked Yelp, we went in with no expectations. We had a FANTASTIC time, and so I was surprised by the fairly low ratings from many of my fellow Yelpers! Starting from the beginning, the parking area was ample, and their front lobby was spacious. We were greeted by three hostesses, who commented on how cute our baby was (yep, proud mama here). It was about 6:30 and there was no wait for seating. The interior decor was beautiful - sleek, modern, clean-cut, western feel with Asian flair throughout. Not at all kitschy or clichéd like other sushi establishments. We were quickly greeted by Benny, who I must say was an OUTSTANDING waiter: personable, friendly, knowledgeable, prompt, and humorous. He even laughed at my husband's 'dad jokes.' The menu was ample. I was honestly surprised I couldn't do a bento box for dinner, but I'd be glad to return for a lunchtime meal to give it a try. We made this night all about sushi, and with their BOGO deal, we couldn't resist. Even their sushi menu was plentiful - it took us quite a while to just fully peruse all our options and decide on some sushi plates. I'm generally wary of asian restaurants that try to cover all asian cuisine, but i understand that they need to market to as many palates as possible vs. authenticity. But as for their Japanese sushi, you'll see my critique in a few paragraphs. :) Before I go into our critique of the actual food, let me preface by saying that my husband and I lived in Japan for three years (2011 - 2014), so really good, fresh sushi is no stranger to us. In the same instance, Japan doesn't really do these crazy, multi-ingredient rolls like the states, which is a western custom I missed while overseas. With that said, we ordered mackerel (saba) nigiri (2 pc), yellowtail (hamachi) nigiri (2 pc), Outer Banks Roll (8 pc), and the Seared Sea Roll (8 pc) with the wasabi dressing on the side. The nigiri plates were exactly what we expected; fresh fish, delicate texture, good rice to meat ratio. The Outer Banks Roll was a fresh, clean flavor with different meat with each bite. My favorite was definitely the Seared Sea Roll; the seared tuna and eel provided a great rich flavor to pair well with the crunch of shrimp tempura and creaminess of the cream cheese. The wasabi cream sauce just *hinted* at a wasabi flavor - never overpowered the roll itself. For dessert we decided to try the fried ice cream. A scoop of green tea ice cream, surrounded by pound cake and deep fried. Now, I've had really poor fried ice creams and fried cheesecakes in the past, where they're either too frozen or too melted... this was absolute perfection. There was layer of crispy fried dough, followed by a layer of soft pound cake, with a well-formed (not melted, not frozen hard) center of green tea ice cream, all with whipped cream and what i think was caramel drizzled over the top. Gorgeous presentation, well-executed, fry timing was perfection. Overall, great location, great parking, zero wait time, fast and attentive service, drinks refilled quickly, acceptable food prep wait time, and delicious meal. Management came by to see if our meal was good, and Benny was really a stand-out waiter. I look forward to coming back for a lunch meal to try their bento boxes. read more

Shiki Sushi - Came back for lunch after our main review: Bento lunch with gyoza, fried rice, California roll, and chicken teriyaki - Sushi Bars Near Me - Durham, North Carolina

I know this review may not be popular with the many (read: MANY) sushi lovers out there who love Shiki but it just isn't for me anymore. There once was a time when I adored Shiki and its seemingly endless options of sushi rolls and BOGO special, but alas, over the years I've moved on to other restaurants. I really loved Shiki before they renovated (how contradictory, right?) but it's mainly because I think the sushi quality has gone down this past year... Or maybe it's just me and being a bit of a sushi snob? Either way, I've tried lots of different rolls and if I do dine here I usually order the sweet dragon roll consistently and its just meh in my opinion. I mean it has all the components it should have yet the eel is almost muddled in its flavor. Also, the past two times I've been here within this month, the seaweed has tasted a bit off... Maybe they changed the brand? Not sure what it is but its hard for me to get past the almost old seaweed taste. The last time I came I gave up on sushi altogether and ordered the Yellow Curry dish. This was much better! A bit spicy (which I asked for) but the flavors were awesome and no additional seasonings or sauce needed here (unlike the sushi rolls... :/ ) and the presentation was really nice (thanks Shiki for making my food look nice!) Lastly, the customer service here is subpar. The most recent visits I had here were met with servers who were either flustered because they're so busy or just nonexistent without any real reason as to why. I'm more forgiving for the former (definitely understand from my serving days at a sushi bar) but the latter is just unacceptable to me. Also both times were during the week at early dinner times (5pm and 6:30pm)... Just sayin. Honestly I'm super torn here and would prefer to give Shiki 3.5 stars especially since I've ventured out to their other dishes and they taste great but alas, I'll round down due to their lack of great customer service and questionable decline in sushi quality. read more

My advice: Skip the food, go for the dessert. I came here with family for my graduation dinner and we each ordered something different (Thai pineapple fried rice; Tasu house fried rice; Chicken & broccoli; various sushi rolls). The descriptions on the menu sounded great but when I tasted some of the food something was missing. Oh yeah, salt. I found the rice dishes to be bland and the sushi I ordered (The Ultimate & Tom Yum) were underwhelming. The fact that I hadn't really eaten that day and still found the food to be subpar should be telling. The portion sizes were massive. We're talking leftovers for days, but I don't want leftovers if the food isn't good. But the desserts?! They almost made up for the lackluster meal. We ordered two for the table to split and I quickly regretted that choice because they were so good. We got the Hawaiian funnel cake and the fried ice cream. The funnel cake was this crispy, light Hawaiian bread that's fried and tossed in cinnamon sugar. The fried ice cream was pound cake and vanilla ice cream that was deep fried and it was delicious. The fried ice cream was more dense than the funnel cake, but delicious all the same. I'd highly recommend either and/or both desserts. Indulge all your fried fair food fantasies here, but skip the main course. read more

I'm done with this place. Every time I come here the rolls are smaller and smaller and the fish is cut thinner and thinner. I've been coming here since this place was a little hole in the wall, 10 seater. They've grown so much and gotten further and further away from their following and their values. It's now a mass market chain type place with no emphasis on quality or customer service. Tonight I took my son here and ordered a Tokyo Sunrise and an Atlantic Lover, both $17 rolls. Every time I come here there's less and less fish. I asked for a little more sumo mix since you could barely even see it- they used to serve it with a mountain of mix on top (which is why I order it). Manager on duty, Bo, gave me attitude and told me he's been here a whole 3 weeks and this is how they serve it. My Atlantic lover roll was really lacking in protein, the fish was super thin. Emma, our waitress was lovely and apologetic but still didn't get the food I paid for... Super sad because I used to love this place. read more

This is the most frequently recommended sushi place in Durham, and like many sushi restaurants in Durham, this one offers the BOGO deal. That's right, you can buy one sushi roll and get another roll (of equal or lesser value) for FREE! Keep in mind, the rolls are pricey to begin with, so don't get TOO excited just yet. Here's what I sampled: Hurricane Roll - inside out sushi with blue crab, mango salsa, and tempura crunch; topped with avocado, shrimp, and Thai sweet chili sauce; $15.95 Sumo Roll - tempura nori roll with tuna, yellowtail, salmon, whitefish, spicy mayo, and smelt roe; topped with smelt roe, crab stick, and conch; drizzled with eel sauce; $16.95 Tokyo Sunrise Roll - inside out sushi with California roll; topped with salmon and shiki "sumo" mix of crab, conch, red tobiko, and smelt roe; $16.95 Famous Roll - inside out sushi with eel, egg, smoked salmon, crab, and cream cheese; topped with 3 kinds of roe - flying fish, smelt, and wasabi tobiko; $16.95 Of these 4 rolls (each comes with 8 pieces), my favorite is the Sumo Roll. Sure, it's probably the least healthy because of the deep fried outer layer, but this outer layer is THE BEST PART!! I love the messy pile of crab on top of the Tokyo Sunrise Roll, but the inside is just a regular California roll. Hurricane Roll was okay as well, nothing too extraordinary about it except for the mango salsa. In the Famous Roll, it's strange to see egg inside a sushi roll, but it didn't taste bad. I also tried the Voodoo Juice (orange, raspberry, and citrus vodkas, orange, pineapple juice with a splash of lime, and grenadine, $8.95), which is very tropical in both taste and appearance. Great for a summer day. Overall, beautiful rolls, great deal (especially if you're sharing), and delicious! Random note: the place appears big because of the high ceilings. read more

It is one of my favorite places but the service and food quality is erratic. We go because when it is good it is very very good all the way. And when the food isn't good they are very good about taking the item off our bill. The sushi has been returned only a few times and it is usually just one type, but it is very important with raw food to get it just right. If we go for lunch, they seem to do a better job. I had only one complaint before COVID-19. We came during a staff change and got stranded with no one working on our order. Hopefully they will get more consistently excellent soon! I especially love the bento boxes at lunch. If you really enjoy asian food this is usually a great place. read more

Something smells a little FISHY!!!! Oh wait, it's just the sushi.... So as usual, business took me to good ole NC for the night, and I was trying to find something close to the hotel, but still just as delicious! Used my Iphone to find this little sushi spot, and must admit, was a bit unsure when I pulled up, because it's hidden in a strip mall. But boy was it like night and day outside and inside. The place was packed, so this put my mind a little more at ease, if this many people were eating here on a Tuesday night, I can't be too wrong with my choice. So I sit down at the sushi bar, and take a look at the menu! They have a Buy one get one free deal every day, which ROCKS!!!! Two sushi rolls for the price of one, who can beat that ?!?! I ordered the NC Sunset Roll, and the Shiki Crunch Roll (check out the pics I added)....must say, I LOVED the Shiki Crunch roll, those crunchies sprinkled all over the rolls, drizzled with eel sauce were too good. If sushi isn't your thing, that's okay, they have plenty of other things on the menu to choose from, between the Thai food, Chinese food, and Hibachi. read more

Needless to say, it's not SushiShow. I wouldn't recommend this place!! If you are used to Los Angeles based sushi restaurants you will be disappointed.

Is this place bad ? No .... Is this place super good ? No..... the sushi was nothing special , but I was given a solid portion. The hot and sour soup was bland and maybe from a box ?

It's confusing how I have ordered the same thing (2 San Francisco rolls minus the avocado) since it was offered to me by my sister 3 years ago! With it being my first time eating there I went ahead and bought my own for 15$ which is what it WAS. I used to eat there from time to time in the past year. PRICE WAS THE SAME! Today the lady otp said there's an up charge for "SPECIALTY MADE ROLLS" how is it special and it's been on the menu? Why are you charging 15$ per 8 piece of HOT FUCKING SUSHI with fake crab meat rice and salmon and just about every other roll is bogo? read more

Best place ever!!! The building is large and I was worried that it would be more like a chain but I was wrong. What more can I say? Well let me tell ya: The sushi is buy one get one free with purchase of a drink. I got the Thai tea and then two rolls; all of which was amazing. Sushi is a bit pricey but for bogo it's not bad. I didn't get pictures of my meal (drunken noodles) because I was so excited to dig in. The portions are huge that two people could've eaten it ah been full. For dessert, I asked for green tea ice cream and a Vietnamese torte. Lemme tell ya - I am impressed. Again, huge portions and great taste. Definitely coming back here again! read more

Nestled in an unsuspecting plaza, Shiki Sushi is quite a popular place! I brought my sister and brother in law here one night in hopes to find some sushi. They have a buy one get one free deal. We were seated immediately on a Friday night at 7 p.m. I was surprised since the front door was jam packed with people! The decor is quite nice but the environment is casual and noise level is high. Our server was friendly and helpful and got our orders in quickly and drinks out right after. I was a bit weary of the menu since they offered a WIDE variety of "Asian" food. Everything from chinese, japanese, thai, vietnamese, and more. I don't generally trust restaurants to do "Asian" food correctly when they claim to do ALL cuisines. We started with the crab rangoon. It was your standard creamcheese wontons w/ fake crab meat. The sauce was pretty good. We had quite a few rolls. Dynamite roll - all sorts of fish on this one; it had a good combo of raw fish, which was good Surf and Turf roll - the "turf" was weird. it was overdone and didn't really have any flavor. when eaten all together (as sushi should be eaten) it' really didn't amount to much Caribbean Roll - scallops were scarce, eel was scarce. but the little that was there was pretty good I can't remember the other rolls but i just remember feeling pretty full by the end of the night. It was better than the ONE other japanese place I've been to here in Durham, so I will definitely be back, especially for the buy one get one free deal. I'm still weary about the other "Asian" food they have but maybe one day i'll feel adventurous enough to try it. read more
