Cannot wait to return the flavors and textures of the rolls and dumplings are amazing. I recommend sitting at the sushi bar

Joshua was excellent, we enjoyed the R2D2, and the transformer! The food was absolutely delicious, and the drinks matched the wonderful taste! Absolutely worth every penny and will be back.

We had a great time here. Our server, Nathan, and the manager, Sunshine, took wonderful care of us, especially since our food needed to be completely gluten-free with no risk of cross-contamination. Sunshine personally took charge of our table, and we were even surprised with a complimentary gluten-free dessert—she understood how difficult it can be for someone with celiac disease to find a safe and delicious dessert. That gesture truly melted my heart.

Thank you both for making our evening extra special with your kindness and thoughtfulness.

Food was good and high quality. Servers were attentive. Main server, Brady?, was really great. Easy to modify reservation with the restaurant with respect to guest number.

We went with a group to celebrate my daughter's birthday. The food and service were impeccable and we had a wonderful experience.

Sandra

The two hostesses were absolutely rude and condescending. I almost canceled but I like the place. Our waiter was very nice.

Katie

Excellent food and great service. Restaurant is small and we were really close to the other tables but overall great experience.

we ordered some thing that ended up being served cold and wasn't good at all. It was a dish with tomatoes and our server never checked in with us, and I sat at the table and waited for water for a while before my husband showed up.

I’ve been coming here on and off for about 8 years, including most recently for my girlfriend’s birthday, and unfortunately this will be my last visit.

We ordered miso soup to start and found a long black hair in it. We brushed it off, assuming it was a one-off.

We then ordered otoro tuna belly, and again found a black hair - this time under the tuna.

Finding hair in two separate dishes, especially raw fish, was shocking…

The only adjustment made was a $5 comp for the soup on a $140 bill. There was no apology and no comp for the otoro.

Mistakes happen, but this was a food safety issue that was handled poorly. It’s disappointing, as this place used to be great.

This is the best sushi spot I’ve been to in Austin. Their whole menu is so well thought out and unique! I was so impressed with the cocktail menu, sushi menu, and even desert menu! You can tell they put a lot of thought into the whole menu! Service was excellent as well, our waitress was so attentive and very knowledgeable of the whole menu! Love this place, can’t wait to come back again!

Over a decade ago, I was coming for lunch all the time and loved it. I broke my hiatus by going for dinner last night: two people, Friday night, seats at the sushi bar.

The wait service (Aaron) was fantastic, attentive, and helpful with suggestions.

We were both disappointed by the food. The brussels sprouts were fantastic, but nothing else had any flavor and the amount of rice on nigiri and rolls was horrifying. The Crudo was beautiful, but had absolutely no flavor, and same comment for the nigiri and rolls. The dumplings had a great flavor, but we’re not served hot enough. Nigiri was great quality fish, good texture, but no taste, and again with WAY too much rice.

While the restaurant overall has a fantastic vibe, the sushi bar was boring, faced away from the beautiful restaurant, and crowded.

We spent $218 for two people, no booze. The big line items were the crudo (Hiramasa Serrano) and Voltron roll.

Unfortunately this one was a miss for us. We will not be returning.

The staff and food were excellent. We sampled their dry aged fish and shared several dishes which were all great. Would definitely go back.
