The atmosphere was very pleasant. The staff was very friendly and our waiter was very helpful and knowledgeable. The food was well presented and tasty. The yellow curry shrimp was well done and the udon was likewise well seasoned. We will be back!

Oh my gosh this place hit it out of the park for me! Easy 5/5 so glad to write this for them. So, ambiance in this place is wonderful. You walk in to koi ponds and on your way up to the table you're greeted by birds. The owners have put the sushi bar front and center as you come up the stairs, my one dislike is the merchandise stand at the front but I can overlook that. Lets look at service next, our server both times I've been has been great. They're always a bubbly and wonderful person, just attentive enough to make sure you've got water but not so attentive to be hovering. They're plesant and fun people, always willing to make some conversation and Crack a joke to spice up your dining experience. The food, so I'm from New York originally and always had easy access to good fish. So, I was super surprised by this place and their delictibe offerings. The food is not only delicious and various in type, having offerings for vegans and vegetarians as well as us normal omnivores. The sushi is wonderful, fresh, tasty and generally great. Soup was wonderful and I was happy as always with a great miso. Lets move into my favorite section, value for money! Of all the sushi places I've been Cultured Pearl is awesome in terms of value for money. I never leave feeling like I've been robbed, the prices are fair and I always leave happy. Well done, keep going you're doing great!

Went here with a friend for my birthday dinner and sat outside by the Koi fish ponds, they gave me a festive birthday hat to wear, as well as a piece of cake for dessert. And some fish food so we could feed the Koi fish, which was fun! My Udon noodles were okay but the broth was not nearly as tasty as the broth from Miyagi Ramen .... So although it was a lovely meal overall... my noodle dish was a bit lacking. I have had several meals here and am always happy, so maybe this was a fluke. Pear martini was delicious! My friend was very happy with her meal, cashew chicken.

This was an easy five star review! The ambiance and overall environment alone is a five star rating. The outdoor seating is awesome, not only with fresh air but water on the rooftop that looks like a higher end deck. And they had fish swimming around up there too! Our waitress Svetla was taking care of us, and she did a solid job. All their food was delicious too. The seaweed salad was a solid appetizer. So was the cream of crab soup, which did have a decent amount of legitimate crab meat. The shrimp tempura was a money entree!! So was the yellow curry with shrimp. Their sushi rolls were all solid too. We would definitely eat here again. Well done Svetla and cultured pearl team!!

We were near the Delaware beaches for a girls weekend and knew this spot was a must for sushi! We decided to go during happy hour time because who doesn't love happy hour. We were seating on their beautiful rooftop which was amazing vibes. We were informed that happy hour is only at the bar which is a bummer. I wish they had said this when we made a reservation or somewhere online. We did not end up doing happy hour since the patio was so nice. The food was delicious and I am glad we still ordered sushi and drinks. I was impressed with the sushi! The rehoboth roll is a must along with the eastern edamame.

Great sushi, quick service, odd ambiance. Not sure why they have carpeting but their menu is so good it's easy to look past. Our waiter was goofy and helpful and friendly when we reminded him of something he forgot. My family prefers another sushi place in rehoboth but I like this one for a change!

The location is absolutely beautiful. The inside is multi level, with exposed beams and a koi pond. It has a tiny sushi bar, with a window into the kitchen. There is also a giant roof deck that kind of looks like the pool at a nice hotel - with almost cabana-like seating. Overall, for the ambience alone it is worth a trip. The food was also very good. The seared salmon belly sushi was maybe the best sushi I've ever had. Also highly recommend the tempura.
