My husband and I came for Valentine’s Day and had a ball! The staff and chef were amazing! The guests were very friendly ! The vibes were on point the the entire night ! But to top it off the food was amazing and this was my first time having raw fish and a chef’s experience like this! It was worth every penny ! I urge anyone to try it and you won’t regret it!

Amazing food and experience in an unassuming location! My family ended up with a private seating tonight because we were the only ones who made reservations, but I truly do not understand why this place doesn’t have a waiting list every night. The food is incredible, each course is better than the one before. The unlimited sake is not a joke; no light pours here! On top of everything else, Sky is a kind and entertaining host. This is a must try!

Chef Sky is absolutely wonderful! This is a hidden gem! Love the integration of his Malaysian flavors with sushi as the vehicle! If y'all haven't tried this, add it to your plans! We had a lovely date night and are looking forward to bringing family & friends back.

Chef Sky is a genuine down to earth person that deserves all the success! He puts his heart into his food and puts a creative spin on his menu that is executed phenomenally. His innovation with food and his incorporation of interactive gastronomy (you get to blow your own smoke bubble on your dish!) is very refreshing to experience especially in this age of cookie cutter omakases.
Normally you would never expect to see ingredients like pork floss or lao gan ma on sushi — however the mad lad did it. He put them on sushi and it was such an unbelievably wonderful combination. He also included a piece of his story in his menu — homemade laksa. He showed a lot of thoughtfulness in the quantity and the contents of the laksa (like not including too many carbs/protein), knowing that it is a heavier soup that he incorporated about a third through the omakase. I was immaculately satiated by the last course so in the end, the portion and pacing of the courses was perfect.
It was truly an honor to spend the night dining and chatting with Chef Sky. His inventive take on his cuisine really makes him a gastronomic visionary. We will definitely be returning and giving him our love and support!

My fiancé made a reservation for my birthday as a surprise and it was amazing! Chef Sky, is so creative and talented. You can tell how passionate he is about his craft. This is not just a restaurant, it is an experience. The food was incredible and I had no complaints about anything he prepared. I would 100% recommend it to friends and family. We will be coming back for sure!

Had the best time here! I've done some omakase before and this experience was extra memorable, not just for the amazing food, but our interaction with the chef and his equally amazing wife! 100000% recommend this place to anyone looking to have an unforgettable experience! Looking forward to coming back with more friends/family!

I went to Tins with 4 colleagues last night for dinner. Chef Sky blew it out of the park. Every dish in the 14 course dinner was unique and full of so much flavor! Two of my co-workers are very picky eaters and loved 12 out of the 14 dishes (pretty good record for people who don't eat raw fish at all!). Chef Sky entertained us throughout the meal and made sure that our sake glasses were always full. I will be back!

There’s nothing like this Omakase in all of Houston, believe me, I’ve been to alot. “This Is Not Sushi (Tins)” definitely stands on its name serving a creative, authentic, and Malaysian twist to all the cuisine! It was nice to step out of the original to something uniquely crafted. And the service was impeccable. The chef chatted with us the entire dinner making the dinner and service that more delightful. Definitely coming back.
