Best Sushi in town!! We ate at Jays for Mother's Day and the staff was super friendly even in a busy environment. FOOD IS AMAZIN! I recommend the crack chicken. Will definitely be back. My only con is that they aren't open for lunch Monday-Friday.
My fiance treated me to a delicious afternoon lunch. We had the blackened tuna with martinis and a bloody Mary. He went with a few Sushi rolls and I had the surf and turf. Wonderful flavors. I could eat the Tuna and Shrimp 1000 times over. Service was very kind and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Excellent experience. The food was delicious and the service was better than fantastic. Ali our bartender, was amazing and didn’t miss a beat! Five Stars!!!
The drinks, appetizers, miso soup, burger and sushi were all outstanding! Our waitress was amazing; she was very friendly and helpful and made us feel like it was her pleasure to assist us. The Patron margaritas were made from scratch and were wonderful, as was the Appletini Martini. The Bugogi wrap was unique; the wrap, the crack chicken and miso soup were awesome. My husband loved The Burger, it was cooked perfectly and the coleslaw was great. The presentation of the 6 rolls we ordered was a work of art; everything was perfectly arranged and easily accessible. The Goldsboro was good; the Drum Roll, Kinston Roll, Patron Roll, Snow White Roll, and Sumo Special roll were phenomenal.
Our waitress, Ali, was very sweet and personable. Her recommendations were on point and everything was delicious. The sushi was beautiful and fresh. I wish I had taken pictures. We loved everything we ordered!
Excellent, quick service, amazing food and the atmosphere was exceptional! Our waitress Myriam was so friendly, on top of drink refills, and made the suggestion for the Patron sushi roll, and we can’t recommend this roll enough ourselves. They offer Pepsi products (Dr. Pepper and Coke are available) and have a drink menu with a great variety of sake and other adult drinks.
We sat at the bar and the service was incredible! The food was great and the stmosphere was so fun. Great vibe!
This is the kind of place where if you need a place to recommend locally, it’s an automatic go to. Whether it’s lunch or dinner date, business meeting, the atmosphere hits it all and you can’t go wrong with the menu. Mocktails were new and refreshing and when the board says “must try”, those are truly all starts on the menu. While looking at downtowns to determine where we move, this was a place that elevates the area while staying tucked away.
First time here and never knew it was there. Tucked in an alleyway it gives it a mysterious secret vibe that harbours good food and a chill atmosphere. I Was impressed when I walked in. The food was wonderful and doesn't sit heavy in your stomach.
Food was amazing! As someone who was traveling through I wish we had a spot in Norfolk, Virginia. We got Jay's Chicken Katsu which was amazing as well as Jay's Burger. We also had the tempura Brussel Sprouts, Fried Baby Octopus, and bulgogi fries. Our server was amazing anf super sweet!Will definitely be back!!
