This is a super nice place to eat sushi. Overall I love the quality and the presentation. Server was also very nice, knowledgeable and accommodating. Unless you want Michelin star service, you won’t be disappointed. Miso soup which is very common tastes very ordinary!! I do not know anything similar in the area. This is one of a kind!!

Every single ingredient is delicious and high quality. They have put some thought in the menu and order of the items. It's been a while that I had fish this fresh tasting. The fish was prepared really well and the rice was delicious. It's a little pricy and portions might leave you desiring more but it's worth a try at the very least.

The best sushi place I’ve been in awhile! The fish was so fresh and I loved that the chef told us which ones to eat first. And the service was amazing! Our waiter was super kind and made great recommendations. I will be back soon!

Everything about this restaurant is phenomenal. The cocktails, the small plates, and the sushi are absolutely next level. Sushi is my partner’s favorite dinner meal so we’ve tried it all over the United States (looking at you Sugarfish) and M Sushi is still our favorite. I recommend grabbing a reservation for the bar and just taking your time to explore all the great offerings on the menu.
Favorite order so far: Ginger Peach Mule > Tuna small plate > Twisted mango rolls > Nigiri

Some of the best sushi NC can muster, in a lovely space that can be a little tricky to find. Feels almost out of place in quaint little Durham. Could easily be located in San Francisco and it would feel right at home.
Sustainable, delightfully tasty, but not over-priced. Authentic, delicious. Seriously worth it. Go try it!

This chic urban eatery boasts an atmosphere and vibe that can be found in Tokyo but is located in the heart of Downtown Durham. The exposed brick juxtaposed with the industrial kitchen bar creates a nuanced feel unique to M Sushi. A line of sushi chefs hunched over their sushi mats making roll after delicious roll is quite a pre-dinner show. The main feast, however, comes when the sushi rolls are presented. Delivered and expertly explained by our server Emily, each roll was deftly prepared and was the star of its own dish. The M Special is just that - special. It’s flavors are light with pops of saltiness from the fish roe and crunch from the micro greens. The Spider is adeptly named for its bite from the charred jalapeño nestled deep within the rolls. An evening spent dining with good friends at M Sushi is truly what living in Durham is about. Pro tip: Pair two or three of the specialty rolls with traditional rolls and you have yourself a menu tasting.
