Unrolled started with two friends, a shared love of temaki-only sushi bars, and the realization that the best part — the rolling — didn't need a restaurant at all.
Our favorite spot was a handroll bar with six stools and a line out the door. No sashimi platters, no conveyor belts — just fresh nori, warm rice, and whatever fish came in that morning, rolled to order in front of you.
When that counter closed early one too many nights before we got a seat, we started asking: what if that same experience could show up at your door instead?
We work with fisheries that meet sushi-grade handling standards and disclose origin on every kit — no mystery fish.
Nothing is cut or portioned until the morning it's delivered. If we wouldn't serve it at our own table, it doesn't go in the box.
Handrolls are meant to be rolled one at a time, eaten immediately, shared around a table. We design kits to protect that, not shortcut it.
We packed our first ten kits by hand and delivered them ourselves across our own Dilworth zip code.
We moved into a licensed commissary kitchen and introduced the Solo, Date Night, and Party kits.
We expanded delivery to Myers Park, Eastover, Cotswold, Elizabeth, and South End — still packed and driven out by our own team.
Today, Unrolled delivers thousands of kits a month across Charlotte — still cut, packed, and checked by hand every morning.
