Was given a bottle by a friend who visited them. Was curious to try but when I opened it, there were some type of roach/winged bugs stuck on the cap and in the bottle. Wanted to try but definitely won’t be now.

Very friendly nice staff! Very helpful to find the best sake for us to try. They are brewing their sake behind the counter. This hand roll was just okay, very spicy with Texas spicy sauce 🔥

We came to try out the food and sample some sake, especially since one of our friends was flying in for the weekend and was excited to experience authentic sake. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to place an order, and the sake we did try was disappointing—especially considering the price. Overall, it didn’t live up to our expectations.

Sub par at best. Cute place and location. The drinks and beers were a bit watery.

We were really looking forward to dining here, as it was our first time visiting. Upon arrival, we approached the bar to ask how the ordering process worked. Unfortunately, the man behind the bar (wearing glasses) was unnecessarily rude and condescending.
He looked my husband up and down and asked sarcastically, “Did you see the little QR code?” — as if we were being foolish for asking a simple question. My husband had the sake menu in his hand and politely explained that it was all he had picked up. Still, the bartender continued to speak to us in a dismissive, patronizing tone.
If the process is self-service or QR-based, that’s totally fine — but a proper response would’ve been something like: “Welcome! Yes, we do serve food — here’s the menu, and you can access it through this QR code.” There was absolutely no need for the attitude.
This kind of treatment is unacceptable in hospitality. He should not be in a customer-facing role if he can’t treat guests with basic courtesy and respect

Jerry with his sake mixed drink creations and locally distilled Sake are phenomenal! Pair it with a Sushi Co 5pc handroll set and you’ll be… SETTT (Thank me later😉)

The customer service is disappointing. It’s our 1st time here and the crew are so unhelpful from ordering to serving. We ordered handrolls as a side to our drink but we can’t go anywhere the tables bec it needs to be in front of the bar. The taste has no difference from freshly made than other japanese restaurants who serve handroll sushi. We will never go back to this place and will never recommend.

The vibes are great. The sake, not so much. I’d recommend only getting the imported Japanese sake, as every single sake of their house-made versions was not good.
The staff is very nice, and it sounded like folks enjoy the handrolls they make here.
It’s a great setting and fun atmosphere for a big group — not at all pretentious.
But the sake has some work.

First and last time going here. The service was horrible and the staff was just WEIRD, and not in a good way. Oh, the Texas Flight of sake, sucked!!! Don't waste your time or money here. I have no idea how this place managed 4.7 stars (smh).
A unique twist on sake. Fantastic Catsu sandwich paired with a rice Belgian lager. Cool ambience, too.

Place has gone down hill. The quality is severely lacking.

So, I will tell you, as a Japanese American I was kind of leery about "Texas Sake," in general, and unfortunately my negative thoughts were correct, I am unsure if they use the wrong rice to make the Sake, or the water quality isn't good, but literally none of the sake they produce is any good, in fact, quite gross. I know that sounds dramatic, but I tried all of their sake, and didn't take more than a sip of each, they all have a bad taste and after taste.
Not recommended, HOWEVER, the food was very delicious and when paired with imported sake, made the visit okay.

Loved the vibe here on a Sunday. Food offerings were spectacular. Drinks were cold (or hot) and satisfying. Looking forward to trying more on tap

Had the omakase with the sake paring. Both the food and sake were really good. The service was great as well, everyone was knowledgeable and fun to talk to.
