Huge menu. Ask about specials. Outdoor seating, but not available at our visit in March.

Food was amazing and outweighed the two issues I personally had while dining it. Read through to see both and how to avoid one, at least! We were sat quickly and greeted by our server quickly. He brought out waters within a minute of our seating. My friend ordered a plate, I ordered 2 sushi rolls and an app to share. The wontons were amazing. Not your typical short-order fried wonton, there was actually crab visible and present in both bites for every wonton. And pretty apparent its not just a simple cream cheese and crab meat, they were quite tasty and worth getting. The wontons came out within 5-6 minutes, which gave us plenty of time to finish before lunch arrived. My food (as pictured) was fantastic. Plating was even top notch, but all tasted fresh and we both were very satisfied. I recommend against a booth seat. No matter the size of human sitting behind you, the booths are very cheap and flimsy. The slightest movement from the person being you will jolt you in your seat. I am ~245lb, and a ~120 female sitting behind me was moving me as I sat still. Not her fault! But very annoying and really took away from the experience. I recommend sitting at a regular table or the sushi bar. It was also FREEZING inside the restaurant. Granted on this day the high was around 43° with gusts up to 20mph or so, but I felt only relief from the bitter wind by coming inside. My fingers felt frozen by the time we got done eating. Our waiter was very mobile and aware, we had to ask for nothing. He was very efficient, so his service along with the quality of the food both outweighed being cold and being bounced around in the booth. We will come back, definitely to the bar or a table though!

The sushi was excellent. I would highly recommend this place if you haven’t been. We also got the orange chicken with rice very good. The only thing I would say is the chicken could be a little more crispy and crunchy. Just a personal preference. the place was pretty clean it just seems a little outdated. Maybe recommend a renovation soon.

The service, food and atmosphere were all excellent. The price also was amazing. The freshness of the food, whether sushi or cooked shrimp pad thai, pineapple fried rice entrees absolutely delicious. All praise to the chef, for the food integrity. My server great customer service and sense of humor. Will return soon

Great sushi with a good atmosphere. I ordered a Thai tea, pork gyoza, fried rangoons and a specialty sushi roll. The food came out pretty quickly and was made fresh. The only complaint I would have was that it took me a while to be greeted by someone once I was sat. I would still be back to visit.

Pretty good sushi spot, they had half off your whole bill on Thursdays which was a really good deal. It's not the best sushi I've had but it was fresh and the rolls were tasty.

Food was delicious as well as the cocktails! Our server was nice, but kept continuously sitting and laughing at her phone when we needed drinks refills was frustrating

Half price deals with sushi are great. We were able to try twice as many options. Highly recommend trying this place if you're into sushi.

One of the best sushi places in Durham! The service is always quick and the waitresses are always very nice with really good recommendations. I had the hurricane roll recently and the presentation and taste was perfect !

One of my go to sushi spots, especially with their buy one get one deal - always know I’ll leave a meal at Sushi Love stuffed to capacity. For whatever reason the food in the restaurant is quite a bit better than when I get take out. I would give dine-in a 4.5/5 and take out perhaps a 3.5/5.
