“Only next level Japanese dining enthusiasts would be able to immediately recognize that they have chosen well. If you are lucky enough to discover the Happy Hour menu then you’ve hit the jackpot. Do yourself a favor and go because ain’t nobody have dry aged fish! What?!? Yes this separates Lucky Robot from the rest of the Japanese places in Austin. Put it on the bucket list folks!“

“WOW! No words aside from being super happy I end up there. One of the most special dinners I had in my life. The attention from the chef, su chef and staff was amazing. Such great passion with the food and the concept. They all so organic into wanting to creat a culinary experience. Would def visit again and get to meet the chef again in his future restaurants. Mario, the su chef, will make his dream come true and own his own place 🤙“

“First time here. Excellent service; very friendly wait ataff. Great selection of sake. Also beer & wine. Very good selection of sushi & sashimi. Very reasonable prices. My only suggestion would be to make the spicy sushi a bit spicier. If I lived in the area, I’d definitely be back!“

“First visit here, and the food was amazin…..seriously delicious.
That said, many of the employees were taking shots during my visit, which made the service feel unprofessional and inconsistent. As someone who’s worked as a server in the past, I’d hate to see such a good restaurant’s reputation affected by lapses in professionalism.
I’d still return for the food, but hope management keeps an eye on maintaining proper standards.“

“The omakase was in my top 3 culinary experiences in Austin. I dream of the O Toro and Hokkaido Scallop. The Chicharron Negi Toro & Tostada blew my mind & taste buds. The flavor combos were innovative & supremely tasty. Even if you've been to high end omakases in Austin, I doubt you've seen a blend of cultural flavors as you can experience here.
The variety of flavors & techniques used to embellish certain dishes was impeccable. If I had to give a score, all dishes were at least an 8.5/10 or above. Some even reached a 9.5 or 10 in my mind. You would think that fusing the essences of such distinct cuisines can be jarring or strange, but the cohesion/balance of the flavors & textures were just right.
The atmosphere was very laid back and the space was well sorted despite the nondescript location. It felt upscale but casual as all the patrons were chit chatting a bit. They had some good tunes playing in the back as well. You can tell the crew was enjoying themselves as well.
Though the price is high as with any premium omakaze experience, it was 100% well worth the money. I do hope to come back in the near future.“

“Came here for lunch and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the lunch bento, which had generous portions and was very filling. Service was great, and the interior was beautiful. We also ordered the yuzu cake, which was excellent. Prices were fair for lunch, though I’m not sure how they compare at dinner. Overall, I would definitely come again.“

“On a cold night this is exactly what you want to eat. They have flavor “bombs” that you can add in, along with fresh garlic. OMG. the only down side is that the building is so small the wait can be long and seating can be tight. It is all community tables!!!“

“Great experience! The chef definitely has years of experience in his craft. The food preparations are a work of art. The flavor combinations are impeccable. The chef explains each dish with great detail, including the process of aging certain fish. The flavor can't be explained. Try it for yourself. We'll deserved Michelin star. Will return.“

“An upscale 12-seat Japanese restaurant offering a unique multi-course tasting menu that combines Tokyo-style sushi with Kyoto-style kaiseki cuisine. The dining experience here is unique and memorable (The Texas Tasty).“

“I have been dying to try Chef Choo's shop for a while now and I am so sad I didn't stop by sooner! The chef's special box that I chose today was truly an amazing experience! The cuts of sushi are so soft and delicious, with meticulous handcraft going into preparing them. The owners were on-site whipping up new masterpieces in the back, with a clean dining area to enjoy this box! If you get the opportunity to stop by, please do!너무 맛있었어요. ^^ 감사합니다. 다시 먹으러 올게요. ㅎㅎ 화이팅!“

“Redefines *fusion*. Miso and a BYOB of double salmon add tofu, Buddha mix, teriyaki and brown rice. They're green tea is to die for, too. It's just too bad that they stopped making sushi, or a visit here would still be a perfect experience.“

Counter service, great attention to detail with the menu. The chefs are bar service are awesome. Enjoy some handrolls and sake pairings or flights. I enjoyed the 3 piece combo“

“First time trying a ghost kitchen, and I was honestly impressed. My order arrived warm and well-packaged, which is always nice! I got the spicy Sichuan gyūdon bowl and it was delicious! Great level of spice but not overpowering. The flavor was great and texture was spot on. I knew it was legit the moment I opened the bag and saw the runny egg yolk.
I saw someone mentioned the beef being fatty, but that’s exactly how gyūdon is traditionally made. So again, texture is spot on!
Best gyūdon I’ve had in Austin so far!“

“I recently checked out Uroko and had an awesome sushi experience. Their temaki (hand rolls) are made fresh to order, and the 12-course omakase on weekend nights was a highlight — each nigiri was beautifully crafted and full of flavor.
The place feels intimate and well-curated — small seating, a relaxed vibe, and chefs engaging with guests. Staff were great in explaining each dish, and you can tell they care about top quality ingredients. If you’re into sushi with finesse and heart, this is one to bookmark.“

“I ate here while in town for Afrotech! I started with the Sunomono Salad (Cucumber, green onion, crab stick, octopus, radish sprouts, sesame seeds with ponzu sauce). I then had two rolls: 1. Who’s Your Daddy? (no rice) (Deep fried crab, cooked shrimp, cream cheese with special sauce); 2. I Love Tuna (in: spicy Tuna, cucumber out: Blue fin Tuna, green onion sauce: Garlic ponzu, green onion, masago) EVERYTHING was amazingly good, the staff was very friendly, efficient, and ensured you had a great dining experience. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“I go here about once a week and I love it! To all the people giving this place low reviews I would say two things:1) it seems like a lot of people are buying their premade bowls instead of their made to order bowls. The premade are good when you're in a hurry but it's much better right off the grill.2) I would agree that the portions are pretty skimpy on the skewers (they are very reasonably priced, so I'm not mad at it). What I always do is get their fried rice and then get the Brisket from True Texas BBQ in the food court and make some brisket fried rice.I don't order their sushi but a lot of other people do and they love it.“

“Our experience was fantastic, from the excellent service to the fresh food. We really enjoyed the ambiance and will definitely be back. We ate at the counter and tthe restaurant does a great job staggering reservations so it didn't feel like there were others dining right next to us the entire time.“

“Believe it when I say this is the cheapest version of “hibachi” you’ll get! Every chain location I’ve gone to (in Texas & California) has been delicious! The chicken and shrimp plate will ALWAYS be tasty and worth the price! 10/10 Definitely recommend!
SN: PLEASE build one closer to the North Austin residents- driving down south is a DRAG!“

“I would like to respectfully start with; I’ve been to Uchi multiple times over the years and will never forget my first experience (which will always be the best in my mind.) That being said — tonight might have been the closest to first I’ve ever had. Chance, our server was attentive, knowledgeable, easy going, brought some of the best plates when we asked “bring us what you like/anything you think we missed” literally 12/10 would recommend. Ask for Chance, he knows his shiiiiiiii* and made our night absolutely amazing and something we will never forget!“
