Restaurant veteran Shari Lynne Robins moved from Los Angeles to Charlotte, North Carolina, and decided that the Queen City needed a new sushi option — fresh hand rolls. This fall, Robins will open Sharigato at 420 East 22nd Street, in the Joinery Apartments building.

Sharigato will be a fast-casual spot focused on made-to-order hand rolls, Japanese snacks, and draft cocktails. The sushi bar will seat 24 customers and allow them to watch the chefs crafting each roll. The restaurant will also offer take-out and delivery via a maki-rolling machine. The restaurant has dubbed the device a robot named Shariboto.
