Kashin Japanese - Cary

While following Google Maps closely, I had trouble finding Poke Republic and ended up calling the restaurant. They answered the phone with the name "Kashin," which is what the sign outside says. However, Google Maps labels it as "Poke Republic." So, just a heads up: if you’re heading there, look for Kashin instead.

I haven't come across a Japanese restaurant as great as this one in RTP. The udon was amazing! My friend and I also tried the tofu appetizer and shrimp tempura, and both were perfect! I will definitely be returning for the cozy and authentic Japanese atmosphere.

This restaurant offers delicious sushi and unique Japanese dishes at great prices. It's also one of the few places in town where you can enjoy Zaru cold Soba and ochazuke.

I may have reviewed years ago but just an update: the food is as good as ever and the service has improved as well. Most authentic Japanese food in the area, my family lived in Japan for years and we all enjoy coming here to eat and enjoy the ambiance. Definitely stop by if you enjoy Japanese cuisine and sushi. The sushi is always fresh and delicious no matter the time of day.
