I keep going to this place because I am always treated so kindly. I really like their poke bowl. It has to be one of my favorites. Also, their sushi is really good. Certain days they have specials, and that is always nice. I highly recommend this place.

Fantastic sushi and selection. Wonderful wait staff. Very pleasant environment. I would have given 5 stars but the sea urchin was just so so.

Been going here for the past 5 years and it just keeps getting better and better. Their sashimi isn't just a wimpy little piece of discolored meat - it's a HUGE chunk of flavorful fresh fish. Their rolls are great and filling (they are BOGO) and they have a lot of other great dishes. This is my go to place whenever there's a special event or if it's date night. Service is always fast and really friendly! 10/10 love this place.

First time here. The food and service were great. I don't always eat sushi, however, they had plenty of options. It will be a place to possibly bring others. The appetizers were delicious and I kept wishing no one else would want any of my bbq ribs. The plates were plentiful so you won't leave hungry.

It's a little place nested in a strip of businesses all forthcoming with inviting atmospheres and delectable cuisine. There are specials active every day, and the sushi in particular looks very appetising, and there's a fully stocked bar to boot. I had a platter of crispy General Tso's chicken that I would personally recommend to anyone interested.

Alright, here’s the thing. I’ve been here 3 times and each time I have to wait for someone to notice me waiting to be seated/order food. When someone comes, I correctly predict they will forget to offer me a menu, yet ask what I want, they will inevitably not have the right password to login to the register and have to go get someone else, and they won’t know their own menu very well. This visit on my birthday includes the guy behind the sushi bar not being able to answer the question “is it regular salmon or smoked salmon in my sashimi lovers order” he just kept repeating “salmon, tuna, whitefish” which I understand, but that’s not what I asked you three times. I’ll come back because your food is good, but just once better service would be nice.

Sushi Love has the most delicious fish of any sushi bar we know, and we have been to many on both coasts. The half-price deals on Tuesdays and Thursdays make it an amazing value as well. Caesar, the head sushi chef, is both adorable, charming and skilled at leading his team of chefs. Don't forget to tip them!

The sushi is pretty decent. The spicy tuna sandwiches are the way to go though! So delicious. I've made a couple friends try them, they were also very impressed.

It's a good place to eat sushi, period. Not fancy. Not extravagant, but just hits the spot. They have a varied sushi menu, but also serve bento, poke bowls and other Asian foods. Don't let the building fool you.

The food is normally better than it was today. The calamari was not good at all. I wouldnt get it again.

Nice sushi place. The rolls are made to order so its made fresh unlike premade rolls that sit there. They have a wide selection of rolls, I love the sunrise lava roll. It is a baked roll. They also have nigiri and sashimi as well as hot food for those who aren't sushi lovers. They also have a nice small bar to get drinks. The restaurant has a nice ambiance to it, night for a chill dinner.

My favorite place to go! They are consistent and always friendly and attentive. I ordered sushi, pad thai noodles, octopus balls. So delicious! Me and my daughter ate the sushi there and saved rest and it was just as good later. The flavors were all there. Sushi was fresh and made to perfection. Prices are comparable. I will be back in to try their signature drinks.

It was good sushi. Venue wasn't the warmest vibe, but it might not have been my style. Prices reasonable for the area.

This place is becoming one of my favorite spots for lunch. Can't beat the prices for the quality of the food. If you like sushi, they have plenty of variety to chose from that will tickle you fancy.

We ordered delivery through GrubHub. This place does Thai food equally as well as they do Japanese food. We'll definitely be back soon!

The sushi here is amazing, and menu is filled with the most creative rolls. As someone who prefers a cooked-fish approach, it was refreshing to find a wide array menu options that fit my needs, which is typically hard to come by. The only way it would gain another star would be if they had a greater number of simple sushi rolls for the cost-conscious. Most of the rolls were considered special rolls and were costly.

There are other good sushi restaurants in the Durham area, but Sushi Love is my favorite. Although most places are relatively the same, there menu seems to offer more diverse and unique options. The Acapulco roll is my favorite and the Blue devil roll is unique with filet mignon on top even though I hate Duke!

God we love this place. It’s by no means the most authentic sushi in town but it tastes great and is very affordable. Our favorites are the Sunrise lava roll, Green wave roll, and Cupid flower roll. The Pad Thai is also great. Pro tip: they’re still doing BOGO while closed for COVID-19 if you call in your order and pick up.

I honestly don’t understand how this place isn’t sitting at a 4.9 or 5.0. We always have a great experience with takeout, they offer BOGO rolls if you call in directly (don’t use grubhub/door dash, just call them). The same woman always takes our order and is there when we pickup, she offers hand sanitizer and wipes off our card when we pay. She’s very professional and sweet. The specialty rolls are fantastic, we also love some appetizers (tuna sandwich, takoyaki, seaweed salad). We usually get sushi and apps but one of our housemates ordered a salmon hibachi dish once and it looked amazing, especially for how cost effective it was. We’ll always hit this place for sushi in Durham and we’re planning to eventually try some more of the appetizers and dishes!

Prompt, always gets our orders perfect and they have BOGO sushi rolls every day. Lovely staff that has done social distancing and COVID protocols better than most restaurants I've seen.

Love this Sushi place. Love it even more that we can do the 2x1 for takeout. I order at least once a month. Food looks and taste always excellent and it feel fresh all the time.

Great sushi. Not amazing, but the best I’ve found so far since moving to Durham.
