The famous Kura Sushi, known for its revolving sushi conveyor belts and robot drink servers, has picked Charlotte for its first Carolina location.
The Japanese restaurant opened this week at Stonecrest at Piper Glen, located at 7804 Rea Road. Guests can grab sushi directly from a revolving conveyor belt or order specific dishes using a touchscreen. Special orders arrive on a separate express belt that delivers them straight to the table.
Kura Sushi offers more than 100 menu items, including nigiri like American wagyu, garlic ponzu salmon and garlic skipjack tuna. Popular rolls include the spicy tuna crunchy roll and tiger roll. The menu also features ramen, soba and desserts.
Every sushi plate costs $3.75. Diners who return 15 empty sushi plates through a disposal slot at their table receive a surprise prize through Kura Sushi’s signature “Bikkura Pon” game.
