Overall: 3.8/5 We've ordered from here a few times and the food isn't bad. They also have 20% off hot food and sushi after 8 PM which is a nice perk. Yakitori ($4.99): Came with two skewers of tender chicken but we didn't really like the flavors. Chashu Pork Filled Guo Bao ($7.99): The buns are fluffy and the chashu pork slices are a good size but they were a bit overcooked and didn't melt in your mouth. The flavors were just okay too. 8 Piece Salmon Sashimi ($12.99): Wow, this was super fresh and honestly better than some of the surrounding sushi restaurants. Best thing we had here and worth coming back for alone. We also ordered a regular platter ($89.99) for New Year's Eve and had it delivered. It fed 4 people with a little leftover which was great. The platter came with a variety of maki and rolls including Eel Avocado, Salmon, Yellow Tail Scallion, Spicy Salmon Crunch, Spicy Tuna Avocado, Sweet Potato Avocado, Salmon Avocado, California, Black Dragon, and Rainbow. They were all alright; I think their sashimi is better so I recommend that over the maki or rolls here.
HokkaiSan is such a fun spot, kind of like a Japanese-focused Asian snack market with way more personality than your typical grocery store. They carry a great selection of snacks, drinks, and even alcoholic beverages, so it's perfect if you're looking to try something new or just grab a few unique treats. It's not really a full grocery store, but that's part of the charm. Curated, hard-to-find goodies. They also have fresh, to-go sushi that's honestly so good, super fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly high quality. Another huge plus is that they're open late and makes it an ideal stop for late-night snack runs (think cup noodles and more). It's definitely one of those places where you want to try a little bit of everything, even if you have to hold yourself back a bit. I definitely recommend checking HokkaiSan out!
I am so glad that we have a place like HokkaiSan in Austin. The city really lacks a lot of good classic decently priced Asian businesses but HokkaiSan checks off all these boxes. They have a limited grocery selection but their charm mostly comes from their snacks and the inhouse food. My friend and I came here for lunch one day and we got sushi, takoyaki, bao buns, and a salmon bowl which were all amazing and reasonably priced. The salmon bowl was my favorite as each piece was so fatty and fresh, it didn't have a fish smell at all. I will definitley be coming back.
This is a small Japanese grocery store in downtown Austin. I was craving a light dinner one night and stopped by this spot to grab a few sushi rolls! The selection of fresh sushi and Japanese entrees was impressive, as was the quality. The prices are fair and the staff are also friendly. So glad this exists when you need a quick meal :)
Sushi is a reasonable price for downtown, I would recc eating it nearby or bringing a lunch box to put it in.. lots of options. Fresh fish like salmon and combo. Great spot for a quick lunch if ur feeling something grab and go! Service great, Grace was so awesome in helping me decide between all the sodas. They have white peach Pepsi ! The vibe was so cute and there was Japanese decorations everywhere.
This bodega has it all! It's small but packs a punch with so many products. And though they carry a lot of great stuff, it's not too much, or overpacked, etc. Super clean store with great service. Can find lots of favorites here (see my pics from a couple weeks back) from candies and treats to drinks, sushi, mochi, ice cream, and more. It's one of my favorite stops when walking from my apartment into downtown. Really a fun shop to pick up things you love, need, or want. I can sum it all up with two words: Super Yum.
This little store is super cute! I've walked around downtown many times and never saw it until recently so I wandered in. The staff told me it's been open for about 6 months or so (7 now at time I'm writing this). It's not a big place but I like the selection. They have a lot of premade stuff including sushi and kimbap. The prices are pretty reasonable, I bought an eel kimbap and it was like $4? They have lots of ramen and Asian snacks too, overall just a nice little place for snacks or a light meal. The sushi costs what sushi costs; the cheaper containers are $12-16 but they have bigger ones that cost more. Unfortunately since it's right on Congress there isn't much parking other than the handful of spots in front which are paid unless you're there M-T after 6pm.
They offer a wide selection of imported candies and snacks, along with sushi, Japanese cold appetizers, and hot bento items like gyoza, soup dumplings, and teriyaki chicken. I ordered a toro combo. It was good--the toro had a clean, mild flavor, but the rice was a little off to my taste. The interior is very clean, but there's no seating inside, so we ate on the benches just outside the store. There are only two benches, and while we were eating, someone had to stand because there wasn't enough space. I understand that this store is primarily grab-and-go, but there seems to be a need for more seating. I think it's great that you can easily pick up Asian snacks while passing through this area, but I wish the selection were more curated--I didn't see many of my favorite snacks, and some of the treats I shared with friends ended up being their favorites.
I dropped by on Wednesday around 11:30 AM hoping to pick up a hot snack after hearing about this place through Instagram. I was really amazed with the variety of Kit Kats they served. Lots of Japanese ramen, noodles, chips, crackers, cookies, and candies. Lots of sake and a variety of beer for purchase, along with non-alcoholic drinks. You can get much of your cravings satisfied here. Grab a quick lunch from here. They have hot food like tonkatsu, dumplings, yakitori, bao bun, spam masubi, and much more. There's a variety of onigiri. They also have some fresh sushi selections, both sashimi and nigiri plus rolls. They even have sushi party trays that can be ordered in advance. I grabbed the six pcs nigiri sushi pack for $13.99. Nice cuts of yellowtail, tuna, and salmon. Felt this was worth the money. The eel and the spicy tuna onigiris were both really good, nice portion of meat per rice ratio. The spam and egg masubi was yummy! The chicken yakitori hit the spot to curb my hunger before we made it to our lunch reservation elsewhere. Parking can be challenging, as it's in the busy downtown area. Prices are reasonable and service is friendly. There are some standing countertops outside the store along with two sets of picnic tables and benches for a quick bite. Note that there is a line of people if you hit the lunch rush so plan ahead. Otherwise, expect to spend some time browsing for some cool snacks and drinks.
I stumbled across Hokkaisan Japanese Grocery on Congress Ave while I was downtown for the Texas Book Festival, and I'm so glad I decided to stop in. Even though it's a small shop, it's packed with fun and unique Japanese snacks, drinks, and specialty items that are hard to find elsewhere. I picked up a Mochi white peach sparkling yuzu soda along with an adorable peach flavored ice cream that was molded into the shape of an actual peach. Both were delicious! The soda had a light, refreshing peach flavor that wasn't overly sweet, and the sorbet was creamy, fruity, and just as cute as it was tasty. Checkout was quick and efficient. If you enjoy browsing for unique Japanese treats or want to try something different, this is definitely worth a visit. It's a fun little stop when you're exploring downtown Austin, and I'll be back to see what other seasonal goodies I can discover. read more
Great addition to downtown. Solidly priced nigiri that isn't as fresh as restaurant but definitely better than the grocery store. I ended up grabbing a tuna/salmon/yellow tail pack and I'm kicking myself for not doing the toro combo. Note, the rice differed a bit in texture/taste on each so it was hard to get a read on if I was a fan, but it was good enough for the price. Until next time read more

Hokkaisan is a super cute and fun sushi deli tucked right in the middle of downtown Austin. They offer Japanese packaged snacks, candy, chips, ramen, and a great selection of grab-and-go items. In the back, you'll find warm pre-made meals like gyudon bowls, refrigerated drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, plus pre-prepared sushi and bento boxes. What stood out to me most was their insanely affordable toro box, which is great if you have very specific toro cravings like I do. It definitely hit the spot, but I will say they keep costs low by serving very thin slices of toro over each piece of nigiri. So if you're okay with removing some of the rice to get a better toro-to-rice ratio, it's still a decent box to grab. Overall, Hokkaisan is a fun and convenient spot for Japanese snacks, quick meals, and affordable sushi cravings in downtown Austin. read more

This is another gem in Austin!! We stopped here to pick up a quick lunch and the fish was SO fresh!!! There is a nice little seating area right outside the store to stop and eat. The employees were all so wonderful and prices were reasonable for the quality of the fish. read more
A 4.5 rounded up to 5! This Japanese shop is small but mighty. You can find ready to eat yummies (both heated and refrigerated) and plenty of snack options. There are a couple tables in front of the store if you want to enjoy your food/snacks immediately there. read more
I think it's really important to have these diverse kind of shops around, especially downtown. It's really convenient, especially if there aren't really any Asian grocery stores around. But that being said, I kind expected more. It is a smaller shop, so I get why the there wasn't as big of a collection, but I feel like I would only really come here to quickly grab some snacks. Not really sure I would come back for the food. I tried the spicy salmon onigiri, and while the rice was good and seasoned really well, there was barely any filling. And the karaage was filling, but the batter was kind of thick and not crispy, so all of the chicken pieces were very chewy. I considered getting some of the nigiri/rolls but the fish kind of looked "fall apart-y" so I refrained. I know other reviews said the fish was good quality and fresh, but I didn't want to take any risks. Again, this is a great spot in terms of convenience, for the sake of diversity, and price isn't too bad. But I think I would always prefer hmart, 99 ranch, asahi imports more etc more. read more
Downtown Austin has plenty of sushi restaurants but not an actual grab n go affordable sashimi sushi. I spent $55 on 4 rolls and to have to say it this very clean inside. Considering its location downtown, it's a great value and experience for the location. Yes the sashimi cuts could be thicker, yes the fish in the rolls could be thicker but to have it downtown, it's a great value. Plenty of Japanese snacks, Japanese Togo ramen, beer, liquor, Togo sushi rolls, sashimi, it's a nice change to Austin downtown. If this place was outside of downtown, I wouldn't be as thrilled because other places like hmart and 99 ranch sell better, cheaper, and more sashimi but this place can go head to head I would say with freshness. This place sashimi taste fresher than 99 or Hmart. I really like how the sushi rolls are smaller, enough rice, not too much rice, but just the right amount to be full yet fulfilling. I like how clean the sushi rolls taste, the rice is legit good sushi rice that can go one on one with any sushi restaurant. read more

Was speed-walking down Congress with my brother to meet a friend when BAM...a brand new Japanese snack store stopped us in our tracks. I didn't have time to fully dive in, but let me just say: Austin desperately needs more spots like this. In LA, these kinds of shops are everywhere...quick sushi, Japanese snacks, quirky sodas, candies, even that glorious Kewpie mayo. It's basically a store passport of sorts...but make it snacks. Places like this matter. They give international students a taste of home, expand our food scene, and add real cultural depth to the city. In my opinion, Austin is at its best when it's diverse with options and this store checks all the boxes. So go, people. Buy the snacks. Support the store. I'm excited. Let's make Austin diverse and full of options and flavors. read more

This store presents a wonderful atmosphere and is stacked with magical goods from across the seas. The staff was friendly and helpful. Next time I will remember to look for Hokkaido butter! read more
This store has an amazing variety of Japanese products, from skincare to food and drinks. I was so excited to see a chef preparing fresh sushi right behind the counter, and I knew I had to try it. I got the Toro combo and was absolutely blown away by how incredibly fresh it tasted. It's hard to believe it came from a convenience store! Check out all the sushi options. It competes on value and taste especially for downtown Austin. I can't wait to come back and try all the other hot and cold food they offer. read more
so excited to have this Japanese market with sushi and entrées to go. Pro tip - Stop in after 8 PM and the sushi is marked off 20%. Very fresh selection - they even had bluefin tuna. I did not try the entrées on this trip but definitely want to be back. I feel like I was transported to Tokyo. Very friendly and nice selection of other Japanese snacks and some toiletries. read more
Wow this place is a little slice of heaven on Congress! It's got all things Japanese snacks, treats, sushi, drinks, you name it! I felt like I was back in Japan in here. The food all looks and smells amazing. The sushi is great quality and really decent pricing. Everything we tried was delicious!! If I worked on congress I'd be here weekly for lunch (at minimum). Go check it out, it's worth the hype!! read more

the salmon sashimi was incredibly fresh, cut thick, soft, and literally melted in my mouth. AND it was so affordable!! they also do 20% off sushi after 8 pm, which is such a steal. there's a wide variety of asian snacks, seasonings, and blind boxes to browse, and i'll definitely be back to try their rolls, onigiri, and bentos. read more
Cute lil store, yummy dessert options, sushi was solid and a reasonable price. I like this as a little shop to look around and have a light lunch at. Prices are mostly steep, but as to be expected for these cute novelty items! read more

A new addition to downtown with an extensive selection of ready-made food, including nigiri, onigiri, kaarage, and more. There are Asian staples lining the shelves as well for a mini grocery haul. Overall, such a good value for fresh and delicious food. read more
On a mission to find sushi that is grab and go but not from Heb or a restaurant we came across this little gem. We did have to pay to park and go on a lengthy walk to get to this place. If you are already on Congress or at the nearby theatres this is a great pitsop. We spent probably close to $80 grabbing sushi rolls and various ice creams. While we were choosing our rolls, more were being brought out so it was nice to see they refill often. It does get crowded in there and if you are lucky you may get one of the two tables out front. We walked many blocks away to a nearby park and ate our picnic. The counter guy was nice. If I am on a mission to look for specific Japanese chips & candy this is a great place to check if you are in the area. read more
Brand new Japanese market and store opened in downtown Austin. The sushi was very fresh and reasonably priced especially for out of town. They have an amazing variety of snacks and candy from Japan. Also, lots of cooking ingredients. I'm definitely coming back next to Memphis staying in downtown Austin. read more
