In Short – Blond wood tones, soft hanging lights and orange textured wallpaper visually link the separate bar, dining and tatami rooms. The crowd is as varied as the menu: Businesspeople sip sake at the bar while families and groups fill the cream leather booths and white-linen covered tables in the main area. The menu features everything from full-sized entrees and sashimi/maki combos to Kobe beef carpaccio and calamari salad served with garden greens and Japanese mountain vegetables.

always awesome
by apato
I have been eating here for a long time and the presentations have been getting prettier and prettier. The sushi always looks like artwork and the service is awesome. We went with a party of 8 and they had the automatic gratuity but that's the same pretty much wherever you go if it's a nice place. It's always worth it!
- Pros: nice atmosphere, awesome presentation

Awesome sushi. Great service
by m15t3ry
Best sushi I've experinced in ten states and counting.
The Screaming O and Hurricane rolls are awesome.
I never knew I loved Sake until Mura's extensive Sake menu blew me away. I've never had bad service, and only feel bad that it took me this long to post this review.
- Pros: Best sushi in Raleigh. Hands down.
- Cons: Very popular. Reservations are a must.

Start Earning It

I have been to Mura at least Six times. They have good Sushi not the best in town by any stretch but great atmosphere accounts for a lot. Recently I went with a group of six, which entitles them to an auto 20% gratuity. I am usually a 25-30% guy WHEN EARNED. I think the fact that it was known it would be added regardless spoke to the server who was LAZY, absent, and slow. I may return and if I do and it is with a group I will insist on Grat not be auto added.
- Pros: Great Sushi
- Cons: Auto gratuity taken for granted
