This place is a 10/10. Fresh food, fresh service, and an amazing birthday experience. The staff went above and beyond with great roll recommendations, complimentary dessert, and a birthday card signed by everyone. 10/10 -- can't wait to come back! read more

I have had better all rolls except 1 had salmon and uni wasn't served cold I would not go back not alot of options and much better sushi places in area read more

Originally, we went for the restaurant week menu, but because it was a set menu or a la cart from the regular menu, we opted to a la cart it. The ambiance is good, the service is good, and the food is good. The sauce pairings had to be the best part of the meals. For each item we ordered, I would hands down order again other than the udon wagyu bolognese, which was a bit subpar with the flavors. Our plan is to come back to dine in the safe with friends. I can't wait to get the Morgan roll again. read more

We heard about Musume Dallas location, but never had the chance to stop by. Lo and behold, they are now in Fort Worth! It was the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. Let's talk location first. They do not have a private parking lot. We couldn't find street parking, so ended up parking at the convention center. Musume is located in the Sandman Signature Hotel. Apparently, it used to be the Continental National Bank; some of the structures still hold. The dining experience is on the lower vault level. You'll find a rowdy lobby bar area and a more secluded dining area. Now the best part - food! Breaking down the menu, it is recommended to get the cold food first followed by the hot food. Ideally, the food would be brought out in the following order: sushi/sashimi, small plates, and then big plates. The order of the food could have been better since that was what they were aiming for, but we didn't mind the mix up. For example, we got our small plate Musume steamed buns last. The grilled lamb lollipops was out before the oyster trio. Nevertheless, the food was delicious. * Friday night roll: A well-made roll with yummy dynamite sauce. You can't go wrong with baked smoked salmon. I would say your typical sushi roll with a higher dollar sign. * Oyster trio: Oyster came out fresh and tasty. They had three different sauces that elevated the dish well. A must for the oyster lovers. *Musume steamed buns: You have four different proteins to choose from. We went with the five spice duck confit. Our server actually shredded the duck for us. A nice dish with the addition of cucumbers, scallions, and carrots. * Black cod: This was one of my favorite dishes. You can definitely tell the cod was marinated in miso for 3 days. * Wagyu hot rock: I love the presentation of this. It was a little extra, but oh so cute. The Wagyu was neatly placed on a leaf. There were rocks surrounding the entire dish. Here's an unexpected twist to the experience. Our server demonstrated how to cook the Wagyu on the hot sizzling plate, but it was not cooking/sizzling hot, and served me a piece of raw meat. I'm glad he quickly realized that the dish was not ready to be eaten, and took it back to the kitchen. * Grilled lamb lollipop: This dish tops the black cod dish. The meat was so tender, savory, and juicy; it just slides right off. The shoyu gari sauce was memorable in a good way. Overall, there are still some kinks in the service, which is totally understandable. The food makes up for it. We really appreciate part-owner Sean coming out to meet us. I plan to try the tableside ramen the next time I'm there. read more

Looking for an amazing Japanese Sushi restaurant in downtown Fort Worth, this is the place The service was amazing, our waiter took care of us and of course we asked for all his recommendations which of course we had to try a few The sake menu was very extensive, and worth exploring. There were so many things we ordered, and nothing disappointed. From the sushi, to the rolls, to the dumplings and the main dishes.. everything was delicious Amazing atmosphere, and so cool they turned the old bank vault into a meeting room and special events venue I definitely will be going back again. read more

Good fish. Rice needs work Ambiance: It's in a former bank's vault operations area. The kitchen appears to be in the safe deposit area and the tatami room is in the vault. It's dark, cool, and music is your typical Buddha Bar lounge soundtrack. I like it. Service: Considering the restaurant is only a few months old, the service was great. My waitress was attentive and did well to give me a rundown of the menu and items she found enjoyable. Food: Let's start with the Musume Steamed Buns. I chose the duck confit as my protein. With the buns and sliced vegetables, it's reminiscent of Peking duck. The buns were light and sweet. Unfortunately, the duck meat, although moist and perfectly cooked, didn't go past a "I cooked duck for meal prep" feeling. Tasty but nothing special. I don't believe I'll reorder it. Next a specialty sashimi dish. Yuzo's Yuzu Tuna. Essentially this was seared tuna with some ponzu sauce presented in little spoons. If you've had seared tuna with ponzu, this will not surprise you. Overall, it was delicious and fresh. However, it was either over-seared or allowed to sit too long as the fish was a little rubbery. Additionally, it could have used a little more flavor. I might reorder it and ask for less sear. Let's get to the real reason for visiting a sushi restaurant: the sushi. As a surprise, I received some sake (salmon) compliments of the chef. My main selection was hamachi (yellowtail), maguro (yellowfin tuna), and ama ebi (sweet shrimp). In regards to taste and freshness, all of the fish pieces were perfect. The disappointment was the rice. It was slightly overcooked and then packed extremely tight. Sushi rice is a key component in nigiri. If done improperly, the balance of the dish is completely destroyed. I'm hoping this was a one off event. I'll return because the fish was better than most and there are a few more dishes I want to try. read more

New addition to downtown fort worth. We decided to come during restaurant week to check them out. This is on the lower level of the sandman hotel. It gave a modern/lively vibe.

The service was exceptional - thanks to Tad and Andy for an exceptional experience for our first time to musume, will definitely come back again. read more

Musume - Citrus Seared Scallops - Japanese Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Have you ever had service so bad that they tell you one of the owners wants to come over and talk to you... but then said owner never shows up? It was a comedy of errors. Before I get too far, I want to say the food was delicious. They are a 3 week old restaurant and some hiccups are to be expected... but this service was bad bad. To start things off, we made a note that we planned to have the omakase. Our mind was set to sit at one of the best new sushi bars and be served whatever the chef wanted to serve us. Our waitress acknowledged this when she sat down at the sushi bar... then she admitted she didn't know what that meant. After a return from the kitchen she told us that "we won't have that until August 1st". OK fine... if the chef isn't prepped to make selections, then I know how to navigate a menu... but first, drinks. The sommelier, Alec I believe, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, charismatic, helpful and polite. He suggested both a Japanese whisky that was great and a sake that sounded amazing (though it came after we ate the last of our food, and was the wrong bottle... but I'll get back to that). So our first round of drinks came promptly as Alec left. Then came the menu presentation... I wanted to be wowed. When you're spending a few hundred dollars on dinner, your expectations are a little high. This is when I should have lowered them. Every description was the same... it was all either decadent, savory and delicious. We went in with expectations of being taken on a culinary tour of the chefs tasting menu, and this person couldn't differentiate dishes on the standard menu. So we placed our food order all at once, to be coursed out as you'd expect... but that's not what happened. Four plates of sushi were delivered all at once, plus a bonus fifth plate, "a special gift from me to you" from our waitress... a seemingly nice gesture at the moment. It was a lot of food, there wasn't room for all the plates. One of the servers asked if they should take one back to the kitchen... it was awkward, it is a new kitchen and they are figuring out timing, but it was a bit annoying. Especially because they never picked up the plates. I was also annoyed because the sake I'd ordered to "match our sushi perfectly" still hadn't been delivered. We finally finished the plates of sushi and still no drink. Then we waited 15-20 minutes... probably the right amount of time if our sushi plates would have been sequenced at all. Then it was time for one of our favorites, black miso cod, from the starter menu. It was fantastic: flaky, sweet, tender, perfectly cooked. Again, the waitress proclaimed, this is my gift to you" as she started to explain the dish. My wife said, "but we ordered this, you already brought us an extra sushi" to the shock of our server... "oh, you did... never mind" As we both enjoyed that first bite of cod,our main course was delivered. At this point my drink still hadn't arrived, so I walked to the bar. The bar tender didn't have an order, what seemed to be a manager was in ear-shot. I didn't make a big deal about things, I just asked if they had my drink. The waitress came back pointing blame in other directions... a convoluted mix up that was between the bar and Alec, but definitely not her fault. As I finished my last bite of food, she delivered the half bottle of sake now 30-40 minutes after I initially ordered (side note, it was the wrong bottle... luckily it was half the price) She apologized profusely and said that one of the owners wanted to stop by to talk to us. I thanked her and gave her my credit card. When she came back several minutes later she asked if I had a chance to visit with the owner, I informed her that they never came by. I signed and we left. Exhale. We skipped dessert, deciding we'd end the night right a block away at Del Frisco's for a night cap. The hospitality as we walked through those doors was contagious. Everyone welcomed us, they smiled, and at least two people said "enjoy your time" on our walk to the upstairs bar. The drinks were great, the bartender was friendly, and the staff seemed happy to be there. Guests felt like guests. This is when we were reminded that a good and happy and hospitable staff comes from great training and management. Del Friscos is world class. I hope some of this can rub off on their new neighbors. I want Musume to do well. The food is excellent... but the service in week three is not worth the price. At all. read more

Had dinner with two other colleagues on Wednesday . The server was very attentive and allowed us time to conduct business ! Possibly because it was a weekday and was a very light crowd . The food . Always ask for what came in that day in any sushi restaurant . The Toro was very fresh and cut well . The miso cod was flavorful. Tried many other dishes and I would say that nothing was poor flavor or quality ! Everything was good . The Thai flavored coconut soup is a very large and filling portion . Recommend ordering one and having them split it into two, so you can still try as many of the other dishes . But never forget, this is Fort Worth and many good concepts have failed to survive here . I wish this establishment well . G read more

Walking into Musume is like you're being transported to another culinary dimension! The restaurant atmosphere totally sets the scene for a fun night with friends or romantic dinner for two downtown. The service was prompt and server attentive to making sure we made it to our show at Bass Hall on time. If you're a larger party, ask to sit in the vault! The food was DELISH. Hands down best fried rice we've had in Fort Worth. Sushi was fresh and a fantastic list of signature cocktails to pair everything with. Would personally not recommend for kids 5 & younger. read more

So I'm very sad to write this review as I've been so excited to try this place. My husband and I walked into the hotel around 2pm on New year's Day it was a ghost town. We waited for a minute then walked around to find the front desk and asked if the restaurant was open and serving food we were told yes it was and to procede down the spiral staircase. We walked down the stairs and stood for a couple minutes and were not greeted by anyone. I took a photo of the vault whilst we waited. At first we thought there were guests eating until they turned around and said oh were not open go upstairs. My husband explained he was told they were open and to come down they said yea we are open but upstairs as they were eating and laughing and joking. No apology, no here's menus for you to look over we will send someone up. We walked upstairs and stood for a minute or 2 and still no one so we decided to leave. It's such a shame it's a beautiful hotel and the decor of restaurant looked lovely but we won't be rushing back. read more

We made a reservation for 2:30 on 01/01/24. I was surprised it let us do the reservation. We walked in. No one was at the front desk. So we went to hotel counter. They said it's open and to go downstairs. The downstairs is beautiful and there were 6 people down there. They were all eating so I figured they were guest. We stood for a few minutes and no one said anything to us. I asked outloud "is this place open?". Some guy eating at the bar said yes. Go upstairs, rudely. I said "the upstairs told us to come down stairs". So I asked again "are you open?". All these people stuffing their faces were employees. Not one person helped us. There was no one upstairs except hotel employees. We decided to leave and spend our $150 else where. What a rude staff. I still can't believe everyone down there working was employees and no one helped us. First impressions are the most important as t a restaurant and this one left a terrible one. Will not go back. read more

I love Fort Worth, but it has serious lack of an Asian fine dining spot, or a decent sushi spot. So my wife and I were excited to learn that the Dallas based Japanese restaurant Musume was opening a Fort Worth location, and we couldn't wait to try it. When we went they had only been open for about 3 weeks, so I think it's fair that a few of the setbacks could be attributed to being a young restaurant. Overall I would say it was a fantastic dinner and a good experience. Almost (more on that in a second) all of the food was executed perfectly and the flavors were on par with some of the other high-end sushi spots we've experienced i.e. Uchi in dallas and Sugarfish in LA. I think the one setback to us having a truly great experience was just our servers lack of knowledge of the menu. He was polite and friendly, but just clearly didn't know the menu well at all. The Sommalier Alec however, was fantastic. He took time to explain the Sake options to us and helped understand which ones would be good for us. He also made a few food suggestions for us that turned out to be our favorite dishes of the evening. We ordered a few Sashimi and Nigiri options, the wagyu hot stone, gyoza, fried rice, and the wagyu flat iron. The standout sushi options were the Mikan Madai seabream with oranges and chili flakes. The other standout was the Hamachi nigiri which was absolutely stunning and full of flavor. The gyoza was delicious, the red cherry sauce gave it a sweetness that complimented the boar nicely. The fried rice might be the best fried rice I've ever had. The only disappointment was the wagyu flat iron. It was a bit over cooked and just wasn't super flavorful. I understand that it's the cheapest steak on the menu, but I expected more from wagyu at a Japanese restaurant. The wagyu hot stone was great even though our waiter told us not to order it because then he has to come make it table-side, which he doesn't enjoy. All in all, I'm so glad to have Musume here in Fort Worth. I am sure that with time they will tighten up the waitstaff and hone in some of the loose ends. Definitely cannot wait for our next visit! read more

Musume is just what Fort Worth needed! Finally we have a great Japanese restaurant with spectacular sushi and other dishes. The ambience is great. Super cool inside with the vaults still in building from the bank. Loved our server and the owner was awesome. Will be back many times. read more

I can not say enough amazing things about Musume. This is one of the best restaurants I have EVER been to. I mean where else in Fort worth can you get premium sushi flown in daily from California, Japan, and Hawaii? I went during opening week and the service was impeccable. We spoke to Khalil one of the owners and he gave us information about the restaurant and the staff some of which are from the Dallas location and the rest who generally knew little to nothing about sushi, whisky, and sake. Alec the sommelier was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. The bartender/manager was great as well and talked us through some of their american whiskey options since my boyfriend did not think he liked Japanese whisky. We later found out that we were wrong and Japanese whisky is incredible thanks to Alec. I can not list every dish we had and how incredible everything was but I'll highlight a few. The Salmon harrasu was my favorite with pickled cucumber, smoked soy sauce, and kizamu wasabi. The madai mikan is beautifully plated and has so many flavors that meld perfectly together. The black cod misosuke was delicious and a must try as well. I have been to this restaurant twice since they opened and the food quality was consistently perfect. There were some small deviations in the plating size and portion but the servers, staff, and food quality were perfection both times. I have never been to a restaurant with such good service and attention to detail. I will be back here again soon for birthdays, celebrations, date nights, you name it, I will always choose Musume! read more

Amazing food. Wonderful attentive service. Chat it up with the sommelier. They know their stuff and may surprise you with a taste of something other than what you ordered. And they do not push the priciest stuff on the sake list. Food was great. We shared the Miso Eggplant, Lobster Dynamite, Madai Mikan. All was wonderfully prepared. Will certainly return. read more

Pleasantly surprised by the food and service from Nick the bar tender - he was great. For it being lunch on a Saturday It wasn't busy which was nice. What we were caught off guard by was that we weren't expecting to be sat in the hotel lobby practically. It was loud with echos of screaming kids in the actual lobby but that wasn't the hotel's fault by any means. There was plenty of dining room seating (more intimate and quiet) where others were seated which did disappoint us to see because we were the only ones sat where we were. All in all it was still a pleasant lunch with very nice cuisine. Suggestion: If going for lunch - upon arrival do request to be sat away from the lobby hall/ elevators. read more

If you have food allergies please do not eat here! I had a dangerous experience at Musume. I sat down and spoke with the waitress about my allergies. I asked if she could check to see if any of the miso soup, gyoza or the beef special had any seafood or nuts in it. We had spoken and confirmed about my order and allergies 3 times. I asked to check also for things like fish sauce, broth or cross contamination. She checked and said they were not confident about the gyoza but the rest was fine, so I ordered the soup, the beef and a cocktail. I felt confident in their service as they seemed to not want to risk something they were not 100% confident about. I got my soup and tried a sip. It tasted odd so I asked the manager, who was helping to serve us and he said "yes, it is a fish broth base". I told them again about my allergies and they apologized and just left the bowl in front of me. They only took it when we re-informed the waitress about the situation. They then set down the rest of my order but I completely lost trust in them and I didn't want to risk it and so I told them to take it away as I won't be eating it. Once my party was done eating they then handed me a bill, I found this quite offensive as I have been anxiously sitting in my seat waiting to see if I needed to use my Epipen. I now have to wait and hope I don't have to rush to the hospital. This was reckless and careless. If you have food allergies please do not eat here, it is not safe. read more

I really wanted to like this place. The space is beautiful. Downtown Fort Worth is sorely lacking in great restaurants. The city broadly could use a great high end sushi restaurant. I've now been to Musume twice. Once dining in and once takeout. Both times the food, particularly the sushi was really bad to the point of unappetizing. I love sushi. I've been know to eat sushi from the Central Market takeout department (something I'm not proud of) so I'm not a snob. Usually a trip to Dallas is required to find great sushi but between trips Tokyo Cafe and Little Lily get the job done. I love Hatsuyuki. It's is fantastic. Unfortunately Musume's food doesn't even meet my low bar. This primarily seems to be a quality of fish / ingredients issue. The fish was a muted dull color. The imitation crab left a puddle of liquid and had an odor. The beauty of sushi is high quality ingredients shine. Unfortunately in the case of Musume the opposite is also true. read more

I highly recommend NOT to go to the this restaurant. The food was good which helped for the small time we had to enjoy it. The sushi was a bit pricy so we expected better service overall. We had booked reservations at 6:30m, Friday, Nov 3,2023. We celebrated my birthday with friends. After being there 1 hr 20 mins we were about to order more food and drinks but instead were asked if they could offer us a free round of drinks and enjoy them at the bar upstairs. They said they had their next party as the tables were only for 2 hrs. They would have liked us to be finished up in 10-20 minutes to get the table ready for the next party. So we stopped to clarify the message with the manager. Even though several other tables had been there longer than us we were being asked to leave. For 4 people we had a $300 bill and didn't want to spend another penny. They took all our plates and utensils so no deserts or anything were an option. We didn't get a chance to eat for very long since our waitress took a while to get our order. Considering how they made us feel the manager didn't blink an eye about her decision to ask us to wrap up and drink upstairs. We didn't want to spend any more time there so just asked for 4 drinks to be comped so we could get out of there. We had never had an experience like that before and won't ever spend money there again. We don't have a problem with a 2 hour window but when you are the only table being asked and other tables were there before you are still enjoying drinks and eating there is a problem. This establishment gets no stars but it made me select 1 to post this review. Do not go to this restaurant! The manager and staff do not match the price you will pay for less than service. There was just no excuse for asking us to leave. We keep wondering if the manager targeted us since we were gay as this happened just a few minutes after she stopped by the table to see how we were. Just ridiculous! read more

The service was horrible but the food was worse. I ordered the Restaurant week menu items and the server brought me the entree prior to anyone getting their food and before the appetizer. I sent it back and about 10 minutes later the server brought the entrees for the rest of my party but not my appetizer. When the server brought out, my appetizer "calamari" it was pathetic but I was in no mood to send it back so I ate it. Shortly after eating the calamari my entree reappeared and it seemed to be the same dish that was returned 30 minutes prior but cold and mushy. At the end of the meal, I asked the server about the dessert and he apologized and put in the order with the kitchen. The rest of the table ordered sushi and rolls which were marginal at best. I will say that the salmon roe was amazing but you can't base an entire experience on salmon roe. Finally, it took so long for us to get our drinks that we almost got up and went to the bar to get them ourselves. I understand the restaurant is new and going through growing pains but it will be a while before I can be talked into giving it another chance. If you want a cool atmosphere and fun people watching, give it a shot. Don't go with any other expectation than that. read more

Once you step down into the lower level from the lobby hotel, you're greeted by a blend of music and Asian fusion ambiance. Very clean and precisely setup. The quality of food and service is excellent. The Yuzo's Yuzu tuna is a must along with the table side prepared Ramen paired with one of the many cocktails/sakes they offer. We finished the night with a trio of their Mochi for dessert. The owner Josh met us table side at the end of our meal and welcomed us as well. Again, excellent food and service... make this a stop for your next night out. read more

If you expect sleek, refined and elegant ambiance you will be disappointed. This is unfortunate because the dishes served were overall tasty - but lacking in presentation. The Hotel Lobby that sits above the restaurant is dingy - the carpets are old and the lighting throughout is poorly done. Barware less than impressive, valet was AWOL as was Greeter. Staff was efficient in a Cafe Diner kind of way. It was painfully evident that the Owners did the bare minimum to get this up and running and Management has mid to low standards. Price points too high for dining experience offered. read more
