“awesome food and service. staff makes everyone feel special“

“Excellent service , friendly service & yummy food“

“We just tried poke stop and we’re so happy we found this little gem! My husband and I each got poke bowls and split the Godzilla roll. It was a good portion of food and not insanely expensive. We dined in, the space is small and cozy. Great takeout option for a healthier dinner/lunch.“

“We first heard about this place on social media. We were a little skeptical to try it, but decided to give it a chance. We shouldn't have waited! The all you can eat menu had many options to choose from. Everything looked and tasted delicious! We will definitely be back. The great service and clean environment were a plus too.“

“Our server Casey was exceptional! We had 19 & a baby. Everyone's order was exact! She's phenomenal! The food... So incredible! Everyone at this place is amazing from our waitress to the chef. I sure hope these people stay in business. They made Mother's Day and 2 birthdays wonderful!! Hats off to them!!!♥️“

“I brought my mom here for lunch yesterday. The waiter that served us had kind of a crappy attitude honestly. In some moments he was nice but my mom asked what comes on a bento box because she's unfamiliar and he told her "it's on the menu". She just wanted someone to explain it to her because she was confused by the sushi and the meat options. Obviously not an item she orders often. She asked what the meat is for (i think she thought you get sushi or meat she wasn't understanding it was a part of the box) and he looked at her like she was stupid and pretty flatly answered the question. It embarrassed her. My mom is a really kind hearted person so it was frustrating watching someone make her feel dumb for asking a question in an unfamiliar environment. Sad. The food itself was good. The waiter likely was having a bad day. I've been a server and understand. But wish he'd been kinder to my mom.“

“I came in on a weekday around 11am. I ordered the shrimp tempura roll (forgot to take a picture). While it was really good, the shrimp was not deveined, which drops a star for me (personal preference). Service was excellent, interior was spotless.“

“The sushi is always the freshest, whether talking about the salmon, tuna, wrappers, fruit, avocados, whatever the ingredients are it is the freshest! The staff are amazing, whether hostess, wait staff, Sushi chefs, even the bus crew everyone is friendly and professional. Patrick is eager to tell you about the food as much as he is about how he and the rest of the chefs have all been friends for years. This is the type of place that you keep going back because it is always amazing!“

“Ahoyama is my favorite restaurant by far. The quality of the food is excellent. Every piece of seafood is buttery soft and they give amazing portions. You absolutely get your moneys worth . They serve the best sashimi ever especially salmon.“

“We had so much fun going here for a day date! Our server Tong had great recommendations for rolls and wine. We also got to try a new roll that wasn’t on the menu yet. Amazing food and atmosphere!“

“Absolutely blown away from the quality of the salmon 🍣. It was buttery tender and delicious 🤤. This place is now my regular.“

“We went here for a mini date night with our toddler included, after a long week.
The staff were friendly and patient. The food was great, more than enough to satisfy with many options.
It is a high ceiling open space, so there is some echo, but apart from that it's a nice space to enjoy food in.
We had the Tonkatsu ramen and Texas ramen. 100% recommend. Such great flavours.

The decor is great while still being entertaining to find ways to distract a very active toddler. The child also thoroughly enjoyed the rice bowl.

Definitely recommend visiting this ramen place.“

“Excellent food and very good service.“

“If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience in Southlake, Cowtown Sushi is a standout. From the quality and freshness of the sushi to the attention to detail in presentation and service, this is far more than a casual meal—it’s an experience. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between polished and welcoming, making it equally suited for a business lunch, date night, or an elevated dinner with friends. What truly sets Cowtown Sushi apart is their consistency—beautifully prepared dishes, excellent flavor profiles, and a team that makes guests feel genuinely cared for. In an area with plenty of dining options, this is the kind of place you confidently recommend because it delivers both quality and experience. Highly recommended for anyone in Southlake who appreciates exceptional sushi and thoughtful hospitality. Shorter punchier version (if for social media/Google review): Cowtown Sushi is an absolute gem in Southlake. Exceptional freshness, beautifully presented dishes, and service that feels genuinely attentive without being overbearing. The atmosphere is polished yet comfortable, making it perfect for everything from a casual lunch to a special night out. In a market full of ordinary dining experiences, this one stands out. Highly recommend.“

“The first time I went there the sweet-and-sour sauce was like water tonight. It was much better everything was delicious.“

“very good! we loved it, and will be back“

“I got steamed, pork gyoza.. also got Tonkotsu Ramen and my boyfriend got hibachi salmon with fried rice. The prices are good here, as we do not like spending a whole lot of money on food, hibachi salmon with fried rice= $18, my tonkotsu= $16, gyoza= $7. Service was good, they have a beautiful 80ish-inch tv over the bar, super crystal clear and they had the basketball game on. There is also a sushi bar, but should note, this restaurant is not suited for large parties- maybe 13 or so tables in the entire place, mostly for couples and 3-4 person parties.
The ramen could’ve been better flavored though, and there were not all that many noodles.
For anyone else wondering, yum yum sauce is offered here, tastes a bit more tangy/tart.“

“Good was really good, the price is worth it.“

“This places is awesome. Fresh, Very flavorful and quick. This place definitely just got add to the favorites list..“

“Oh my gosh, this place was absolutely amazing. I’m not from this area and have been looking for a new go to sushi place, and this is it. Our waitress was a star, she was on top of everything. Even after we had boxes and were paying the bill, she refilled my drink! Which never happens. We had a chicken katsu, mountain roll, Hawaiian roll, and a Dallas Stars roll and my god they were incredible. The presentation, the amount, THE TASTE. We also had enough left overs for another whole meal. ALL FOR UNDER $100! I will be back time and time again, could not recommend this place more.“

“Amazing place! Food quality is of the highest! Had the spicy chashu ramen today and I was completely blown away! It was delicious! I definitely left with another order to go!“

“Yes, affordable but classy. Great food“

“the Food is so delicious my wife and I and our 3 kids love it there I also love their cowboy California Roll“

“My husband and I love this Japanese restaurant. They have a variety of Japanese dishes, and a delicious desert option. The chicken teriyaki and sushi rolls are the best, and the deserts are delicious. Great variety of sakes as well. We recommend!!“

“Incredible experience. We have been here before with great service and food, but tonight was the best! We celebrated our 5 year old's birthday and from the time we walked in, she felt so special. As always, the food was delicious...but that was only the beginning. From the dancing dragon that came to tell her happy birthday, to the gift of special chopsticks...she felt like a queen. Thank you Takara for helping our little girl feel so special. We will definitely be back.“

“Good staff and good food they cook the food in your face“

“They happily offered a nori substitute for my salmon sushi (delicious). The Shuman and beef takami were perfect. The clear soup is a palate cleanser (no flavor). The only disappointment was the fly that had me arm flailing throughout the meal.“

“Place was amazing. Service was amazing. Highly recommend this place. We celebrated our 28th Anniversary there tonight.“

“Truly and all you can eat for $30/person. I felt like everything I ordered except for Sashimi or The 2pc, had crab in it. Not that I dislike it, but the menu while it seemed large, also felt small at the same time. Three different rolls and somehow all ended up with immense amounts of crab within. The Goyza was delicious. If you want a cheap all you can eat sushi place, this is for you.“

“We first heard about this place on social media. We were a little skeptical to try it, but decided to give it a chance. We shouldn't have waited! The all you can eat menu had many options to choose from. Everything looked and tasted delicious! We will definitely be back. The great service and clean environment were a plus too.“

“this is the best hibachi place in dfw! lots of great food for your buck and great showmanship. the kids love it!!!“

“Went for the first time for my birthday with my family. The food was so good! The chef at the hibachi was very funny and interactive. The other staff were friendly and everyone seemed happy to be there. We called to make a reservation so we would be guaranteed the hibachi experience. They also have a table dine in area that is very nice looking and next time we come we are going to sit there. Their prices are around what you would expect for hibachi and good sushi. We had a great time! We will be going back 100%!!!“
