How locals rank it
From the local food press
- Sushi
The News & Observer's sushi guide names Waraji as a longstanding Raleigh destination for nigiri, rolls, and sake. The Duraleigh Road dining room has the breadth of a full Japanese restaurant rather than a narrow omakase counter. Start with nigiri and sashimi selected from the day's fish, then use the sake list to extend the meal.
Picks from The News & Observer, Raleigh Magazine, and INDY Week
- Japanese
Waraji combines an expansive sushi program with the range of a full Japanese restaurant. The counter handles nigiri, sashimi, and rolls, while the kitchen prepares noodles, tempura, grilled fish, and other cooked dishes. Its North Raleigh dining room has the calm confidence of a longstanding operation, supported by attentive service and a serious sake selection.
