The restaurant had a modern and relaxing atmosphere with stylish décor, comfortable seating, and soft background music that created the perfect setting for enjoying Japanese cuisine.

“salmon belly sashimi was thick🤤🔥 and worth every penny

I was a bit nervous to try the handroll tasting ($66) especially with some of the options (such as Uni- had it before and was not a fan… at all)

but I was sooooooo soooo impressed with each hand roll. Especially the Uni!!“

“Absolutely amazing experience at Katami. The staff was incredibly knowledgeable and every one of the dozen options we ordered was perfection, beautiful interior as well. Highly recommend“

“MF Sushi is hands-down our favorite restaurant in Houston. We find ourselves coming back again and again because everything is consistently exceptional. The fish is incredibly fresh, every dish is beautifully prepared, and the attention to detail is unmatched. The service is warm, knowledgeable, and makes every visit feel special. Whether it’s a celebration or just dinner out, MF Sushi never disappoints. We always leave looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend!“

“5 Stars! (Only because I couldn’t rate them 10 stars) Soto is a sushi lover's dream. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance is welcoming and stylish, perfect for a relaxing meal. The service is top-notch. Anthony was attentive, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. The sushi was the real star, with fresh, high-quality fish that practically melts in your mouth. The Ora King Salmon was standout, and the Fire Salmon was perfect. Drinks, including their selection of whisky and wine, paired well with our meal. Overall, Soto delivers a memorable dining experience. If you’re in the Houston Area, don’t miss out. Special thanks to our waiter Anthony, the GM Mariela, and of course the master chef behind it all Moto Soto.“

“Had an amazing omakase experience at Tins. Every single course was delicious and unique. Loved the Malaysian influence on the dishes. The vibes were chill and Chef Sky was great to talk to. Bonus points for the post dinner karaoke and unlimited sake!“

“Perfect for anyone who wants a quick affordable and healthy food option. Coming from someone on the Keto diet, this place is awesome. They will cater to any diet and have responsibly sourced food. This is my new staple!“

“This restaurant was absolutely awesome… From the hostess to the wait staff, and the food was amazing!“

“TEN out of 10!!! Definitely recommend!“

“Some of the best sushi I've had in my travels! Delicious, fresh fish with amazing flavor combinations. The staff was great! Attentive to special needs and conversational through the while experience.“

“I walked in and asked someone nearby for a menu .He said menus are online rudely and walked off . I stood up there for a few minutes no one came back up to greet me or take my order . As soon as some Caucasian people walk in a man came out back greeted them & seated them all while I was just standing there . I just left respectfully . I was shocked that this place of business only caters to certain races not the African Americans and I normally dine in at the Mexican Restaraunt but I seen that a new spot opened up and I wanted to support . My family has been̈ treated very nice at the Mexican restataunt in the same shopping center everytime we go Customer Service is superb . This Educated African American will happily spend her black dollars where it is appreciated .You all need to take notes on welcoming everyone to your place of business regardless of color .“

“We absolutely ❤️ this sushi bar. The best happy hour and the best staff! Not to mention they have really cool digital signage on their TV 😉“

“Just found my new favorite sushi spot! 🍣 This was our first visit, and the sushi was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious by our standards.

It would have been even better if the sushi rice had been stickier and more tender. The texture of the rice was the only downside.

Unfortunately, the service was mediocre. We placed most of our order through the iPad, so there wasn’t much interaction with the staff. At the end of the meal, the waitress just quickly dropped the check on the table for me to sign and walked away without saying a word.

I always tip 20% for good service, and I did the same on this first visit. However, if the service is the same next time, the tip will reflect the experience. Good service deserves a good tip, and poor service deserves less.“

“Great food. Friendly staff.“

“Food was unreal, everything melts in your mouth. The atmosphere is romantic and fun! Service was amazing, we had Minh waiting on us. He was constantly checking on our table and making sure we got what we wanted to order during happy hour. The happy hour has great menu items and drinks on there too! Table was being cleared a lot from dirty dishes and waters were never empty. The bathrooms and the establishment is very clean as well!!“

“Excelente servicio y super rico todo“

“The restaurant was very busy when my partner and I visited but service was extremely fast. The selection of sushi can be overwhelming but the menu explains everything in detail, when in doubt ask your server. Every piece of Sushi and Nigiri was so fresh! Will return for sure!“

“I highly recommend coming here if you are craving sushi. It was so delicious! The waiter Daniel was super handsome and friendly and the rest of the staff were amazing too. I can't wait to try the other items they have on the menu next time.“

“I highly recommend the lobster, spicy tuna, and fatty tuna handroll. They also have great vegetarian options and the avocado handroll is my favorite. I alternate between the negitoro and chirashi rice bowls during my visits. For dessert, their raspberry kakigori has been on the menu since they opened almost two years ago for good reason. The chefs and front of house staff are personable and welcoming. They are passionate about what they do and are open to feedback.“

“Delicious Food and great for a date night or Girls night out! 🙌🎉“

“I had a great time celebrating my birthday. The drinks were amazing. The service was excellent. Everyone said they like their food. I had an issue with mine. I got the lobster and filet mignon roll and it was pretty pricey, and it was not good. The only good part that was good was the fried Lobster. The roll itself was not tasty at all. I will be back, but I was disappointed. I wanted to treat myself.“

“my first time here and it was so good! cozy atmosphere, service was phenomenal and the food was amazing!“

“I've been to many other sushi restaurants in the greater Houston area that can cost two to ten times the money but only demonstrate half the quality that you can expect at Miyagi.

Every piece of sushi in Miyagi's decades of operation passes through a single chef's skilled hands. The rice maintains its fresh warmth from cooking through his deft, practiced motions. There is a consistency here that you will not find elsewhere in Houston, where a team of chefs can come and go according to the whims of restauranteurs.

Expect a wait, potentially hours, which will be worse the later you arrive during their operating hours. The chef's signature style of large, bold maki and nigiri may annoy customers who prefer smaller pieces instead of his mouth-filling morsels.“

“My family really enjoyed here“

“Enjoyed everything. It is in a green space but once you are inside the gate, you will see Himari. Staff is very welcoming and helpful. I misunderstood what came in one of the sets and they were quick to help me, and fixed it for me. Wish I lived closer but I will definitely come back again.“

“The food was delicious 😋 especially the wrap. Plus, staffs were friendly and always greeted you with a smile.“

“I didn't get a chance to try the food because my friend didn't want sushi😑.
They accommodated the fact we were walk-ins and everything I saw on the menu looked great. Looking forward to actually trying the food here. Friendly staff.“

“The restaurant's small size comes off as intimate not constrained. The staff was super kind and that set a great mood in the whole place. They expertly care for your experience. I'm truly impressed. The sushi is the best. We'll come back for sure.“

“We came across Koyo after I googled looking for sushi places in my area. I had never heard of Koyo before. This place is so good and the sushi is fresh. We ordered the scallop crudo and edamame to start. The crudo was so good I forgot to take photos of everything else. I was just too excited to eat everything. We had the 5 hand roll set, brown butter enoki mushroom, spicy tuna, and eel rolls. Everything was top notch. We also ordered the flight of 4 sauces. Our favorite were the chili oil crisp and the ponzu mayo. It’s bar seating only and I’m short, so the only thing I would change is adding a bar at the bottom of the chairs or bar to be able to rest feet. Food, atmosphere, service were all 10/10. My husband and I want to become regulars here. I’m so happy we have this option in our area now. We have only ever been able to eat at these types of restaurants in Houston.“

“We had dinner here two nights in a row and really enjoyed it, a great Japanese restaurant in the heart of Houston!

Standouts for us were the spicy tuna (highly recommend) and the barracuda, which was delicious. They had a fresh delivery from Japan one evening, so we tried the sea urchin, it was excellent but quite expensive for one portion. The chicken yakitori was also very good and worth ordering.

The chicken fat rice, however, was overrated in our opinion, we’d probably skip it next time.

The only downside was that service was quite slow on both visits. There were plenty of chefs visible, but the front-of-house service didn’t match the kitchen pace.

Overall, a solid spot with some excellent fresh fish and dishes. We’d happily return for the quality of the food!“

“When we have a meal so perfect that we want to give praise to the establishment, especially when I get treated by my sugar mommy, just to spoil ourselves and celebrate life sometimes. Full disclosure, the generous manager Jessie sent out 2 of her favorite dishes, but I would have reported our wonderful lunch here anyways. Whenever Vanessa has a craving for anything, I simply get that need fulfilled. She wanted some good quality sushi this weekend, so we settled for Soma Sushi among a few options we had in mind. Hoping to see the talented and super nice Chef Omi Higa, we opted for the seating at the Sushi Bar. My choice is easy, the usual Chirashi Sushi, 8 kinds of premium Sashimi over a bed of Sushi Rice with deliciously Pickled Vegetables. Vanessa has a more refined and discrete taste, so she ordered Japanese Uni Sea Urchin, Salmon, O-Toro Fatty Tuna, Tobiko Flying Fish Roe, Spider Handroll, and the trusty old California Roll. The fish is top-notch, naturally flavorful, fresh, and has that faint fatty seafood fragrance that I love; I cannot ask for better quality. I can elaborate with more empty words, but when the ingredients are premium quality and served with well-seasoned and temperate Sushi Rice, there should be as little extra interference as possible. All the Nigiri and Sashimi we had are at max enjoyment level for us. Chef Omi Higa, even though was shopping for his ingredients away from the restaurant, went out of his way to notify the manager Jessie, and she gracefully introduced herself and said hi to us. As we were slowly enjoying our food, and I mean, I really take my time taking deliberate bites, Jessie sent out her favorite dish for us to try. The Madai Tiradito is composed of Sea Bream Sashimi, Orange, Yuzu, Olive Oil, Black Sea Salt, Yuzu Tobiko, Kaiware, Red Onion, Wasabi Yuzu, Serrano, Micro Rainbow Mix, all beautifully plated as shown. Can you imagine the dance of flavors and textures waltzing in your taste palate? Peter or Pedro from Guatamala who took great care of us behind the Sushi Bar, prepared this extraordinary dish for us too. We get to know each other and talk about food and travel, which makes our dining experience so much more hospitable. Just when we were finally attempting the finish all our food, a second surprise arrived. Jessie promised it's the last one because she has to let us try their best seller of the house, Japanese Wagyu Shumai. Don't you just love the sound of that? Premium Wagyu Beef stuffed in a Shumai Dumpling, topped with Truffle Ponzu and Garlic Crunch, can you understand now why this is the top-selling item? We all know the quality and taste of food are always impeccable at Soma Sushi, in addition, the people, management and staffs all handily contribute to elevating an otherwise already perfect lunch. We just hope to can make it here more often.“

“We’ve only done take out from Miyabi but wow are they on point. Their sushi is Consistent, fresh, and delicious. For context, we’ve done uchi, Soto, etc., so we know what good sushi should taste like.“

“So good!! Our waitress Alina was AMAZING!! We’ll be going back soon for sure!!“

“The food is always delicious and fresh. Customer service on point !! Highly recommend“

“Love coming here! Great service, amazing food, and I love their drinks!“

“Elysia is amazing; she helped us through the menu. She has 5 stars from us. The seafood should be fresher since it is served raw. The sushi rice was gummy and plain. I thought that with $57/person, the quality should be better to meet expectations.“

“Exceptional artistry combines with fresh ingredients. Creative, clever combos bring out subtle flavors by fantastically down to earth warmhearted chef staff. Brava!“

“Tonight was the first time we visited and we will definitely be coming back again. Clean, friendly and definitely fresh made food. We enjoyed our visit so much it’s family friendly and a great place to support. I 100% recommend“

“I love coming here! The fish is fresh, the vibes are very relaxing, and the service is amazing! I always get the edamame and the veggie tempura and those never fail! I have made it a mission to get a new roll every time I come in and so far all of them are great! Come here if you get the chance, you won’t regret it!“

“Vegan menu was delicious!!“

“Fabulous meal and perfect recommendations from our server.“

“Had a great experience at this Pokeworks! My daughters and I were craving sushi but also something quick, so this fit the bill! Isabel and Daya helped us and they were both so great! They were super patient with my kids picking out what they wanted on their bowls, even making a sample of torched salmon for my 8 year old to try. One of my girls got some
Boba and loved it so much she hasn’t stopped talking about it. We’ll be back!“

“It’s so good. I like it 👍“

“First time trying, rolls were a bit on the smaller side compared to other restaurants; expected 2 separate plates as I had ordered 2 different special rolls but was surprised to find out I had actually ate both already! I ordered new york roll but be aware it will come with raw fish as well.“

“Awesome service and friendly staff. Great food!“
