Aroma Korea Sushi & Grill
About This Spot
Stepping into Aroma Korea Sushi & Grill feels like discovering a quietly vibrant corner where two rich culinary traditions meet with warmth and care. Nestled in Cary’s bustling neighborhood, this is the kind of place that wraps you in a cozy embrace — subtle hums of conversation, friendly nods from servers, and the rhythmic clatter of sushi preparation all shaping an inviting, unhurried mood.
There’s a comforting balance here between the thoughtful precision of sushi artistry and the soulful heartiness of Korean flavors. Whether you find yourself savoring a stone bowl Bibimbap that arrives still gently steaming or delighting in the playful crunch of Korean fried chicken, each bite tells a story of careful craftsmanship and familiar comfort. The pace of the evening flows naturally — lively without rush, allowing space for shared moments, discoveries, and quiet appreciation.
The atmosphere is intimate yet unpretentious, making it easy for both long-time neighbors and newfound friends to feel at home. It’s a spot where attentive servers seem to understand just the right rhythm of service: present and attentive, but never overbearing.
Here, the menu unfolds like a personal invitation, with dishes that spark curiosity and reward with authentic depth — from rolls that marry fresh seafood with subtle Korean spices to small bites that awaken your palate with layers of texture and tang. The feeling is one of genuine care, reflected not only in the food but in those human moments, from thoughtful suggestions to shared smiles across the table.
For those seeking a thoughtful, relaxed evening filled with flavor and a sense of belonging, Aroma Korea Sushi & Grill offers a quietly memorable experience that lingers long after the last bite.

I highly recommend this restaurant! Everything was so delicious, authentic, and beautifully plated. The atmosphere was very pleasant and my waitress was incredibly talented. Definitely try the katsu and poke bowl. Everyone was so nice and everything I ordered came very fast, 10/10 service!

We found this place because it was open later and we're so glad!! We were celebrating our 20 year anniversary and it was perfect. Small, cozy and delicious. Everything we ordered was 10 of 10 nothing was lacking, complete flavor bomb. The chicken wings were stellar, the bulgogi wraps were fire! The sushi was fantastic, we had the secret garden and crunchy diablo roll. We WILL be back! The host was so attentive and precious. My new favorite spot

Had the shrimp yakisoba and it was great! The noodles were cooked perfectly, the veggies were cooked just right: not too soggy or too crunchy, and the sauce a nice sweetness to it, balanced &bringing the whole dish together! 10/10 recomend

The food was so good. We went for the sushi and it did not disappoint! The sushi was delicious. We tried liked 6 different ones. The appetizer and the desert we had was delicious as well.

So. Good. We stumbled across Aroma and I could not be happier we did. Their dishes were excellent and packed with flavor. The staff was so friendly and the service was exceptional. We will definitely be visiting again.

Don’t know why it took me so long to try this place out but I’m sure glad I finally made it. The Seared Tuna roll was prepared well and tasted great. Was nice they served fresh ginger with it. The Bulgogi Bibimbap was not prepared the way I’m accustomed to but was still really good! The vibe inside is typical of a mom and pop Asian restaurant but still nice. The service was excellent with both server teaming up together and checking on us to make sure everything was going well. Definitely am going to come back to try other items in their menu.

Loved coming here. Pleasant surprise. The service felt like I was being hosted in a home. The sushi was great but I fully intend to try other dishes next time.

The ambience is nice and they have a large menu. While the food is good, everything seemed a little too sweet for my taste. I ordered a creme brulee cheesecake but they gave a regular cheesecake and that also was too sweet (even for a cake), we (two people) couldn't finish one slice. The sushi was good.
