Review by Jacques Wilkinson

September 24, 2024

Ishi is a hidden gem for Japanese cuisine in Charlotte! 🌟 The ambience is casual yet trendy, perfect for university students and groups alike.

I ordered the Panther Roll and chicken hibachi, and both were spot-on - deliciously cooked and bursting with flavor. The extra sauce on the side for the sushi was much appreciated! The mixed hibachi veggies, particularly those carrots, were a delightful surprise.

Service was fast, although a check-in would’ve been nice. Overall, Ishi still holds its reputation for quality food at fair prices! I’ll definitely be back for more! 🍣🥢
