    I ordered takeout at Sushi Taro and service was fast and friendly. I placed the order online and it was ready by the time I arrived (~15 minutes). I got the Sushi and Sashimi combo for 1 and it was a lot of food! It came with 5 pieces of assorted sushi, 6 pieces of sashimi, a spicy tuna roll, a soup, and a salad. The salad was typical with a refreshing ginger dressing. I thought the soup was bland so didn't really have much. However, the sushi was so fresh and delicious! None of the pieces were fishy and the flavor was great. I've never had white tuna before as I'm usually a salmon girl, but it ended up being my favorite! The spicy tuna roll was also huge and packed full of crunchy tempura and spicy tuna. I was so full and could barely finish everything. I love Sushi Taro! Great service and even better food. The value is well worth your money for some fresh, delicious sushi. Will definitely be ordering again!

    Best sushi in Mt. Pleasant hands down. I go here almost every single week. Service is always great and super fast. Fish is always fresh and delicious. One of my favorite sushi spots ever, also great for takeout and VERY reasonably priced

    Spicy tuna roll and avocado salmon roll

    The food was fresh and amazing! Also super fast. We were all starving from a beach day and were welcomed by the friendly host/server. My table ordered the seafood spring roll appetizer THIS WAS SO GOOD! Seared tuna wrapped in a soft rice paper with crab, avo, cucumber, spring mix top with a sweet and savory mango sauce, seriously next level. I ordered maki rolls pictured, very good. Others ordered hibachi which came out on a sizzling plate delicious. Overall great experience, awesome food and affordable.

    Great service, okay sushi. The rolls were decent but the sashimi platter was not high quality.

    The epitome of mediocrity Food? Meh Service? Meh Value? Meh Wasn't expecting much walking in but the food really wasn't anything special. Their fish isn't the freshest either. Prices are above average for the area.

    Dessert on the house

    Overall a warm feel on the inside. A quiet atmosphere and all hands on deck service. Food came out very quickly. Let's start with the first thing we got. Miso soup. WOW! It was great. Then, there was the gyozas. Also great. Then we had the yaki udon with chicken. If you're looking for your udon in a broth, this is not the dish for you. I typically like a more sauced up udon than what this was, but I will say there was definitely a sufficient amount of chicken. Onto the sushi, LOL !! Buddha's belly was relatively good with a nice crunch, however, it was one of those sushi rolls that I preferred wasabi on, if you know what I mean . The Charleston roll was cut into pieces that were perfectly bite-sized, but nothing too special. However, the presentation was licky. Then they gave us a free little dessert on the house! Sweet, LOL . Would go back and would recommend to try.

    This used to be one of my favorite places to go. Prices were reasonable and food great. We did takeout tonight it was very bland. Usually there's tons of flavor. Steak was way over cooked and dry too. After a few bites I see a hair. Super gross. I tried to keep eating and found another hair. It happens but more than one, too much. I called and just got an apology. Very upsetting as I was craving food from there all week. Not running back there anytime soon.

    Do they do happy hour?

    My all time favorite sushi place!!! No happy hour but 1/2 price wine Sun-Wed and I think 1/2 price Sake a couple of day's a week.

    Do you still serve blue fin tuna?

    Yes...it is labeled as seasonal and price is dictated by the market

I was a little worried when the website said call ahead seating was on hold thinking they would be slammed, but forged onward!' It was Sunday afternoon. I have read about nightmare parking but did not experience that at all. Zoomed right in. Yes, it was eleven bucks. I don't mind paying and refuse to get myself worked up over it. Ask for an outside table and no sooner did we sit down, the dolphins showed up!!! I consider myself an expert on dolphin spotting and had to show the table of 5 college age young ladies where they were located. They loved them as well. Who knew they would be so active in the middle of a busy waterway? As a former boat owner, I love watching those huge honkin' boats parallel park in between the baby ones. I do not have that skill , but it's entertaining to watch. Tyler was our server and was nice and attentive. Drinks were cold and quite good. I ordered a house Chardonnay and it was Cambria. Not crazy expensive either! Had shrimp tacos and steamed shrimp. So many steamed ones that I had a full meal the next day. I look forward to trying many more dishes. What I enjoyed the most was being part of a fun atmosphere in a fun place. Not a sad person in the place. That's always my attitude near any body of water. All the employees were engaging and happy to be there.

We ordered a half pound of peel & eat shrimp to snack on while having some drinks. I'm not sure if I was just hungry or if the shrimp were actually as good as I thought they were! I wish we got the full pound. I would recommend checking this place out at an "off" time so it's not so crowded :)

Instead of cake, our group brought blueberry pies and vanilla ice cream, and the staff graciously took everything to the kitchen, sliced and plated the pie, added generous scoops of ice cream, and even placed birthday candles on each slice. Such a thoughtful touch that made the celebration extra special. The atmosphere along the water made it even better. Watching kayaks, paddle boards, and boats pass along Shem Creek while enjoying lunch was the perfect backdrop for a celebration. This has definitely become a new favorite spot for our group!

The sushi was fresh, and their food and drink menu included a wide…read morerange of standard to premium selections, including fatty tuna, A5 wagyu, and Junmai Daiginjo. I appreciated how they filled their spicy tuna rolls with chunky pieces of fish instead of the usual ground tuna used in other sushi restaurants. Their offerings and methods of preparation, paired with their higher price point, suggests they are a higher end establishment. However, the atmosphere was undoubtedly on the casual side, and their service, although friendly and knowledgeable, exuded a lack of experience and the same attention to detail that they put into their food. This was especially apparent after coming from eating at other restaurants in a similar price bracket, where you can sense the waitstaff had a lot of pride and passion for their craft, and it didn't feel like it was just a job for them. In contrast, our experience at Shiki felt far more transactional, and lacked that "customer obsession" and genuine warmth. That said, it's difficult to judge a restaurant's culture just from a single night, and maybe other customers had a different experience from us. Ultimately, if good sushi is your priority and you are willing to splurge a bit, Shiki meets and even exceeds that bar.

They exist, but some of the best are so unassuming you can walk right past them. Shiki is exactly that kind of place--a small, warm, inviting restaurant tucked into a strip mall that feels like a neighborhood secret. Loc, our waiter, greeted us as soon as we sat down with water, a friendly welcome, and a helpful walk-through of the menu. We started with wine and sake--always a promising beginning. The first course was seaweed salad with baby octopus, and I could have happily sipped that dressing like a cocktail. Light, bright, perfectly balanced, with tender octopus that added just the right bite. From there we decided to sample our way through the menu and ordered a lineup of rolls: Spicy Yellowtail, Spicy Shiromi, Rainbow, Spider, Lemon Salmon, and Eel. Each one seemed better than the last. The Spicy Shiromi was the clear standout--absolutely spectacular. What really sets Shiki apart is that every roll has its own distinct flavor instead of the one-note sameness you find at so many sushi spots. You can tell real care goes into the preparation. If you're searching for fresh, thoughtful, genuinely delicious sushi, don't overlook this little gem. Shiki is the real deal.
