“I totally loved it. However I wouldn't recommend it to people who actually dont like Japanese. Everything was awesome”
“First time tried Omakase by Chef Diego for my birthday and it was astonishing! Previously went for sushi rolls and loved it (despite the restaurant being far from my house), but after trying the chef chosen variety of appetizers, sushi and sashimi will be back more often. The dishes we tried were so distinct – fusion of Japanese cuisine with modern touches. Plates were decorated as art creations; taste surprised and satisfied the palate, the textures were marvelously fused. Perfectly combined flavors and highest grade seafood were perfect for celebrating my special occasion, want to return for more. The place may not appear luxury or chic but food definitely is the top quality. It has been open for many years and still provides excellent quality and service (as sushi connoisseur I noticed the trend for quality to do down for many high end sushi restaurants). Definitely will be back and highly recommend as best place for Omakase in Houston.”
“Overall: a decent place to go for a date night (bc that’s more of the vibes imo) if you’re looking to eat Japanese food. Food: safe options to go for are the ramen bowls (either the house or duck flavor) as they’re both tasty. Skip the chicken katsu dish as it just wasn’t worth it and the sauce was a little to BBQ for my taste. The sushi was also really good but for the portions and price, not really worth it. Price: pricier than I’d like but if if you’re wanting a bang for your buck, go for the bigger plates like ramen as they were $16 each. The sushi was only like 10 pieces and should’ve been priced below $15 imo. Service: we got seated quickly but that’s probs because we came after lunch time ish. Our server was nice and our food came out within reasonable time. Atmosphere: I didn’t like all the dim lighting and dark decor as it gave off a more intimate and reserved vibe. Tables seemed to be also a little too close for my liking”
“Food was nothing spectacular. Just happen to be local and went for the convenience. I would visit again but the server turned me off. She was rude and unfriendly. She frowned when asked about the types of ingredients as I have allergies to certain ingredients. She seemed agitated so I stopped and ordered something else. I was trying not to be rude in front of my guest but even my friend mentioned how she was rude and unwilling to listen and took off. I spent over $100 for 2 person lunch and found it very distasteful that I spent the money and had to give her tip that she doesn't deserve for such unprofessional behavior. As for the food, I would go back only if I get a different server. I have few friends who had the same service issues which I was told few weeks back and i didn't think much of it. However, now that I too experienced rude and unpleasant services i may have to wait a while until I forget the distasteful encounter. Price and the quality is fairly reasonable like any other sushi restaurants in the area.”
“📌The restaurant is clean and hygienic, with spacious seating and soft lighting. It is suitable for couples, families, and friends to gather for dinner. 📌Personally, I think the ingredients are average, not as authentic as the sushi in local Japanese restaurants, and the portions of each meal are on the small side, which is a pity. 📌Generally, the quality of the food is good, and the price is on the upper-middle level. If you want to be full, this restaurant may be a little disappointing.”
