    Out of town working and found this great spot for sushi! Fun atmosphere and a great menu. Staff was very friendly and the food was fantastic!

    Took almost an hour for my take-out order to be delivered to me. Looks pretty slammed, with front-of-house staff chit-chatting all day.

    Disorganized and Unprofessional Service I called at 1:30 on 01/01/2025 to order a sashimi deluxe platter for pickup. The person on the phone struggled to understand my order, repeatedly asking me to repeat it despite sashimi being on their menu. After several clarifications, they finally confirmed my order and told me it would be ready in 20 minutes. When I arrived 25 minutes later, the staff was mostly standing around chit-chatting, with very few customers in the restaurant. I was told my order wasn't ready yet, so I sat and waited. Five minutes later, they brought out multiple orders, including mine, but prioritized checking out other customers first. I ended up waiting another 20 minutes, only for a server to finally ask, "Are you waiting for something?" Turns out my order had been sitting there the entire time. The staff's lack of communication and disregard for customers' time was infuriating. A simple takeout order took nearly an hour due to inefficiency and inattentive service. The food may be decent, but the service is unacceptably poor.

    Rainbow roll

    The food is outstanding!! Musi soup was in pont with big pieces of seaweed and tofu. The sushi nigiri was so fresh and so big and so perfect. The rolls were fresh and inventive, especially the orange dragon and the citrus twist. The rainbow roll was good and the OMG was just fine. I OMGed over the raw fish, more. My waiter Matt was awesome. Great recommendations! (and no that is not his picture in the painting on the wall). If I am ever in Charlotte again I would absolutely go back to this place.

    Came here for my son's birthday lunch. We were a group of 5. There is a sign posted asking for grace due to being short staffed. Service was kind and efficient. Sushi rolls were tasty. Lots of variety on the menu. Hibachi was ok. Stick with the sushi here. They also have a full bar. Everything seemed clean including the restroom. Try this place out!

    The Aesthetic: Creative, modern sushi spot with a variety of interesting and classic rolls. I found my new favorite sushi place, I had a perfect meal here. The staff was also very kind and attentive, 5 stars! The Price: It's a good price since it's a little out of the main city, and you get large rolls so there's a high value. The Parking: It's a huge lot in a strip mall, so you shouldn't have any trouble finding a spot. We went on a busy Saturday night and found a close spot. My Order: The Black Widow Roll has spicy tuna, cilantro, basil and dried spices (added cream cheese), and it was one of the best rolls I've had. I also ordered an asparagus roll, which was classic. There is so much on the menu to try, I'm going to keep coming back. The Conclusion: If you enjoy fun sushi rolls, this is it!

    Was looking for a sushi place in the University area and found Sushi Queen on Yelp. There were alot of rave reviews and I love sushi so off I went. This place is very unassuming from the outside, but it is huge inside. Service was goo. Our waiter was attentive but not over bearing. He provided a lot of good options to try. I had the rainbow roll and eel roll as they are my goto's. Good portions on the rolls and the fish and eel were very fresh. My only complaint was the eel sauce as it was very sweet. Almost too sweet. Overall I enjoyed my meal and would return when I am back in the area.

    So delicious. Sat at the bar and the staff were very welcoming and chatted with me while I waited on my meal. It didn't take long to get my food and the restaurant is large, would recommend for small groups or a date night.

    Miso soup to go
    Mo S.

    This is one of my go-to restaurants for sushi. It's always consistantly fresh and delicious. They have hibachi and other items, but I always get sushi. I have dined in, and the service was great. Usually, there is no waiting and I'm seated immediately and receive my food in a decent amount of time. Several different times, I have tried to order from their website, and online ordering is not available. When that happens, you have to order from a 3rd party site, doordash pickup does not have a fee but the other online ordering options listed have a 3% fee to order on their site for Sushi Queen. Tonight, I ordered take out. I ordered the seaweed salad, spicy salmon, spicy tuna rolls and miso soup. The miso is put in a very tiny to go cup. You don't get as much as you would if you dine in. It was, however, hot and tasty. The rolls were made to order and really good. The seaweed salad was good, but I've had better. I do recommend.

    Hot Momma Roll (top), Hot Papa Roll (middle), & OMG Roll.
    Elizabeth W.

    We were honestly surprised with how amazing this place looked tucked into shopping center strip. The interior was spacious, clean and efficient. We were seated immediately and our waitress was incredibly quick to get our orders in. We ordered the Fried Green Tomato appetizer with smoked salmon and cream cheese and ate it before I could think to photograph it. The three sushi rolls we ordered were phenomenal. Perfectly spicy and layered on the Hot Momma roll. The Hot Papa Roll was creamy and crunchy. The OMG Roll had a ton of great flavor and texture! We will definitely revisit!

    Mango roll
    Pamela D.

    I went here with the hopes of finding a cooked sushi roll. I ordered what was under cooked rolls, but it wasn't cooked. The sushi was still good, as was the service (they let you know it will take at least 30 min before the food comes out). My favorite thing was the fried green tomatoes because they were delicious.

    Chicken Teriyaki roll made to go
    Leandra C.

    Food was fresh as always. Ordered the chicken teriyaki rolls. Always a good go to place for sushi

    Red dragon roll (top left) and yellowtail roll (bottom right)

    This place was a total discovery thanks to Yelp! I had a severe craving for sushi but didn't want to drive across town for it (uh, hello gas prices) so I fired up the ol' faithful Yelp app and put in sushi near me. lt pulled up Sushi Queen and I decided to check it out to solely due to the proximity. I was pleasantly surprised to find a sushi place that is nearby and actually good! Sushi Queen is located in a strip mall right across the street from Regal Starlight theater and next to a Walmart. I walked in and placed my order at the bar since it was to-go. I placed my order and was told a 20-25 min wait which wasn't an issue since I had a podcast episode ready to go and I popped in Walmart. However, next time I will call ahead for pick up. The interior is quite large and the tables are well-spaced so you won't feel like you're eating on top of another like you do at other restaurants. They do have a full-service bar so you can enjoy a beer or cocktail with your meal if you dine-in. I went with the red dragon and yellowtail roll and was pleased with both. Super filling and tasted fresh. Again, this was a great discovery thanks to Yelp and I'll be back!

    Absolutely loved the decor in this restaurant . It was a Little slow at first for a Saturday but it quickly picked up . Sushi is fairly priced and it was delicious. Drinks are strong enough for one but definitely go for two !

The restaurant is stylish, modern, and surprisingly chic , with a great location that makes it easy to add to an evening out. As first-time guests, we especially appreciated our server, who patiently walked us through the process and made sure there were no surprises. The explanation about the charge for uneaten all-you-can-eat sushi that guests want to take home was particularly helpful. Knowing the rules upfront makes all the difference and sets the right expectations from the start. The food was excellent. We worked our way through several rolls , sampled dumplings , and didn't find a miss among them. My Lycheetini was delicious, and after tasting a couple of sakes , I ended up buying a bottle to take home. Zero regrets there. Parking requires a little planning, with a paid lot nearby unless you're fortunate enough to snag a street spot right in front. Overall, I'd happily return and enjoy the entire experience all over again.

I really appreciate that this spot offers free parking in the dimensional garage, but we had a really difficult time accessing the garage when we left? Like I'm not sure where the entrance and exits are really supposed to be- it was really difficult.

So his choice was here. Google directions suck they took us around the back to the parking garage for the 2nd level and since we have never been here before it took us a few minutes to figure out how to get down to the first level. When we entered there was a waiter taking an order and no one else on the floor so we had a little bit to get seated even though there were only two other parties in the restaurant. We were able to sit wherever we wanted so I sat with a view of the screen with the replay of the Brazil FIFA game on. My husband wanted the unagi don but didn't order because the price seemed high. The table next to us all ordered bowls and the serving size was huge so my husband regretted it. We order takoyaki, spicy wings, and 3 rolls Godzilla, Hadouken, and Master Roshi. The wings had amazing flavor but were not spicy. Takoyaki was flavorful and the perfect temperature. I get a lot of takoyaki that is entirely too hot and have to crack them open to cool before eating them. My husband did not enjoy the Godzilla roll he said the topping was too much and didn't add to the flavor. But enjoyed the other two. I enjoyed all three rolls the flavor was fresh and very little need for soy sauce fine without it. If we are ever in Charlotte with time to eat I would stop here again.

We were so impressed, we decided to order the double fried wings afterwards. The wings were good and had an interested flavor with the tamarind. After the wonderful appetizers, it was time for the entrees. I ordered the short rib yuca gnocchi and my friend the arroz con pollo. On paper the gnocchi sounded sublime, but in actuality it was lacking a lot. The entire dish lacked so much flavor, even with hot sauce, additional salt, and lime it tasted bland. I was very disappointed. The empanadas and service were a saving grace, I ordered two orders of empanadas to go for my family. However they were so expensive. I paid $14 for 3. Even though I loved the empanadas, I probably would not be back.

We had never had any problems here until our most recent visit, when our server, Mauro M., took care of our table. We placed our order, and after our regular rolls were brought out, I asked whether he remembered that we had also ordered a specialty roll. He said yes, but later came back and told us that it was no longer available and that they no longer make it. That itself was not a big deal -- we could have simply ordered something else. What bothered me was that he did not tell us until I specifically asked about it. If I had forgotten, we might have just kept waiting for something that was never coming. When we received the check, the total was also higher than it should have been because the specialty roll that we never received was still included. He eventually brought us a corrected check. Because of the poor service and difficult communication, I left a smaller tip than I normally would. However, when I checked my bank account today, I noticed that the final amount charged to my card was higher than what I had authorized on the receipt. The difference was not large, and I disputed it through my bank, but for me this is about the principle. A server should never change the amount of a tip or charge a customer more than what the customer authorized. Because the experience had already been problematic from the beginning, I had a feeling something like this might happen, so I took photos of both receipts. First, we were charged for an item we never received, and then the final charge to my card was higher than the amount I actually authorized. We will still come back because we genuinely like this restaurant and have had many good experiences here. However, if Mauro M. is our server again, I will ask to be seated with someone else. Updated: The manager reached out to me, apologized, and assured me that they would take care of the issue, so I'm changing my rating to 5 stars. Bad situations can happen anywhere. What matters most is how a business responds, and I really appreciate that they listened to my concerns, took them seriously, and showed that they genuinely care about their customers.
