All three rolls tasted great and had their own distinct flavor profile. The chicken dish was not my favorite, but came out piping hot, which was perfect! The spicy edamame appetizer I didn't care for very much, as I prefer them to be tossed in a chili oil instead of siracha sauce. Great decor that fits the restaurants vibe, service was friendly and timely, and the food hit the spot. We left feeling very full :)

Great spot in the Cypress area!…read more The food was great! I don't think I had anything that I didn't like. I tried a few of my wife's sushi, chicken skewers, and some kind of dumplings she ordered, and I had the sizzling bulgogi kimchi plate. My plate came with a salad, which I wish came in a slightly bigger bowl, as it was starting to fall out. The bulgogi kimchi plate was delicious. There was a good amount of beef, and the crispy--possibly garlic or onions on top was a great addition. The amount of food on the plate was just right. I couldn't give it a full 5 stars because the service was only good when the server was actually there. I think there were 2, maybe 3 servers, with the restaurant about 70% full. We took some extra time to order, but it also took a while for someone to come back and take our order. It took a while to get a refill, and there were noticeable delays whenever we needed a server. The sushi had way too much sauce on it. It was overpowering the taste of the fish. Check the pic.

Summary- awesome Japanese in a cute little spot!…read more Food- 5 stars Every single thing we ordered was excellent. Chicken Karaage, katsu, shrimp, harumaki, croquette.... All banging. The bento was super well presented and was a pleasure to eat. Service- 5 stars Super friendly and helpful and they even brought out kiddo silverware for our littlest human. Atmosphere- 4 stars Cute and clean but be aware there is pretty limited seating. Value- 5 stars Not particularly cheap but it's a lot of great food for the $$.

Unfortunately, they only have 1 table for 4 people and the others are for 2 persons only. So if that table is not open, your only choice are the stools or waiting. They do have a lunch menu weekly with 4 choices for $12-$13 that come with a 2pc harumaki. As others have indicated, this restaurant is cute and decked out with a lot of small japanese toys, nick nacks, books and claw machines. The good thing is the claw machines are pretty easy to win and actually guaranteed to win with every 10 tries. I won 2 items on 4 tries if that gives you any idea. I ordered a combination of sushi and cooked food on my visit. I tried the Beef Yakiniku Don and the yellowtail with scallion roll. My group also ordered a brown sugar boba milk tea, kids bento box with chicken karrage and a creamy cold noodle ramen. Don - comes with miso soup which is pretty standard. The Don bowl is impressive with a lot of beef and onions all throughout the bowl. The beef is very tender, flavorful and slightly peppery. It wasn't spicy so I asked for something to go on top. The owner came by and gave me some chili oil and togarashi. This dish has pretty good flavor. Cold noodles - this dish is truly cold and a little strange to get used to at first..but the flavor is pretty good. It does come with a slightly spicy paste on the interior side of the bowl if you want to make it spicy. The owner described it as slightly less spicy than wasabi. Kids bento - fried chicken thighs with white rice and snap peas....a fairly healthy meal. Tips for owner/manager - the water is terrible here, wish they had low sodium soy sauce option on the tables, seating is limited, check expiration dates on your sauces and condiments on a regular basis as my chili oil was expired.

Complaint Regarding Unacceptable Service and Employee Conduct…read more On Thursday, August 13, 2026, I visited your restaurant with six other family members to celebrate my grandson's birthday. As the first person in our party to arrive, I was seated immediately. Unfortunately, the waitress assigned to our table was neither friendly nor welcoming. When the rest of our party arrived, the waitress took our orders. Everyone except myself and the other grandmother ordered the "all-you-can-eat" option. We chose to order à la carte because we both had prior lunch engagements and did not intend to eat a large meal. Almost immediately, the waitress stated, "You cannot share plates with the other diners in your party who ordered all-you-can-eat." I was appalled by the assumption and asked her what made her think we intended to eat from anyone else's plates. Her comment was extremely insulting and made us feel as though she was accusing us of intending to take food for which we had not paid. Unfortunately, her attitude continued throughout the meal and created a hostile and unwelcoming atmosphere during what was supposed to be a special family celebration. Despite the poor service, we paid our bill and still left a very generous tip. However, the situation became even more disturbing. As we were exiting the restaurant , my granddaughter realized that her iPod was missing. We immediately returned to our table and searched for it but could not locate it. My son-in-law then used the tracking feature on the device, which indicated that the iPod was still inside the restaurant. We approached the manager and explained the situation. The manager asked the waitress whether she had seen the iPod. To our surprise, she had the iPod in her possession and immediately returned it to us. Given the circumstances, I found this extremely troubling. Earlier in the evening, the waitress had expressed concern about the possibility of our sharing food that we had not paid for. Yet, by the end of the evening, she was in possession of my granddaughter's property without notifying us that she had found it or making any apparent effort to return it. Whether the iPod was intentionally withheld or simply found and not promptly reported, the circumstances were deeply concerning and left us feeling uncomfortable and distrustful. An employee should never leave a customer questioning the safety or security of their personal belongings. This experience completely overshadowed what should have been a joyful family celebration. Based on the treatment we received and the circumstances surrounding my granddaughter's missing iPod, I will not patronize this restaurant again. I am sharing this experience as a warning to other customers and strongly encourage management to review this incident, including the waitress's conduct and the handling of my granddaughter's property. Customers deserve to feel welcomed, respected, and confident that their belongings are safe while dining at your establishment.

The floors, the tables, the seating... everything was immaculate. I even went to the bathroom thinking there has to be something slightly off somewhere (because let's be real, restaurant bathrooms usually tell the truth)... but it was spotless too. Major points for cleanliness. I also didn't realize they have hibachi tables, which we will definitely be coming back to try. The sushi itself was delicious. I ordered the OMG Roll and the Shaggy Dog Roll, and both were huge compared to what you usually get elsewhere. Super fresh and really well made. My husband ordered two rolls and basically inhaled them. Great food, extremely clean restaurant, and a pleasant surprise overall. We'll definitely be back ...especially to try the hibachi next time

This might be the prettiest hibachi spot I've been to so far…read more And listen... they make you enter through the lake-facing door (not sure if it's intentional), but as a water lover, instant calm mode activated. Walking in felt like a whole vibe. Inside? Huge open space, tall ceilings (like 20 ft tall tall), and giant windows overlooking the lake. Super clean, modern, and just aesthetically pleasing all around. Only tiny downside - the hibachi grill side faces the parking lot, and that's what we reserved. BUT even that side was still spacious and spotless, so honestly not a deal breaker. Lake side has the open bar + regular seating, and yes - outdoor seating too. Perfect for date nights or girls' nights. Now let's talk reservations because THIS matters... Super easy, no stress. Friendly on the phone AND in person (you know that's rare sometimes ). I walked in and I was greeted immediately. They gave me the option to sit at our table or wait for the rest of our group. I went ahead and sat, and the hostess still took drink orders while we waited - love that. A few people in our party were late and we ended up short, but the staff never made it awkward or rushed us. Just patient and kind the whole time. Once we got started, our chef understood the assignment Entertaining, funny, and had us all engaged. Birthday song onion ring volcano and we went 3/3 on rice-in-the-mouth basketball (very important stat). And the best part - the food was actually fresh and delicious. 10/10 recommend and definitely adding this one to the "we'll be back" list.

Fast forward to 2026 and I have become an even bigger fan of this particular location. My niece and I absolutely love coming here for their spicy creamy vegan ramen. It has just the right amount of spice and the flavor of the broth is actually oh-so-delicious! Service is always just as great as the ramen. Must order items besides the ramen are the Brussels sprouts tempura, edamame, and the shrimp tempura. I have also tried their miso eggplant appetizer which was good but I do wish that the eggplant was sliced evenly throughout the dish so that it would have the same texture throughout the entire dish. Some pieces were cooked perfectly while others were not tender because of the cut. Regardless the flavor was still there. Really want to try their chicken ramen next because I feel like this particular location makes everything tastes wayyy better than the other ones I have tried in Houston lol.

We called the restaurant for a refund and the owner started yelling at me telling me how I was wrong and called me names and refused a refund. He told me not to order from them anymore and never to come back. Epically horrid food, horrible service, horrible ownership, horrible experience all the way around. If I could grant negative 5 stars I would. *Update for the next day* I found ourselves in gastrointestinal agony. Upon a visitation to the lavatory, the upcoming substance tasted like nothing but rotten fish. I think my suspicions were correct that the ingredients use were slightly less than fresh.
