It doesn't bother me that it's semi-dimmed and small. The food made up for it even though my back was to the main entrance door. Good parking spaces. There was a waitlist but we didn't wait for over 30 minutes. Best bang for your buck AYCE sushi at $29.99/person and their menu is THICK. Even for someone who is used to sushi, it was overwhelming at first. The tablet made it easier to order without feeling so needy to the already-so-busy servers. Cheaper at lunch time but menu has less options, mainly no sashimi and only ice-cream as desserts. My favorites are chicken karaage, kanpachi sashimi, yellowtail sashimi, salmon sashimi, Cajun albacore sashimi, spider roll, Starbucks roll, baked green mussels, and their mochi (I got strawberry and mango). I got a lot more but those are my favorite and highly recommend for you to try. Final destination sushi rolls are majority of the people's favorite, including my server's. Eel sashimi is on a grill, which was surprising and good. Wasabi was lacking the spice and I'm not a fan of pink ginger but it's an AYCE so not complaining. What I do suggest you to do is to stay away from hot cheesecake and ice cream tempura. Unfortunately, they most likely use the same batter batch with their meats/seafood and they fry it with their seafood/meat oil so all you taste is mainly seafood, which is quite disgusting when you want your desserts to be desserts. I love seafood but that was gross. I still ate the insides. Overall, a solid restaurant for AYCE sushi. I like that the majority of their sushi rolls are half and they don't kill you with so much rice. Plus, you have an option to not get AYCE if you're not too hungry.

I haven't been to this spot in years. I forgot how good this place was!…read more Music is always popping here. I came in on a Friday night, and they had a live DJ playing. The music is a mix of EDM, Hip-hop, Rap, and R&B. They have tables and bar top seating. If you have a bigger group, I'm sure you can find a table depending on the time you arrive. There is a lot of seating. To start off, I ordered the Matcha Martini. It was STRONG omg, definitely a sipper, but it was so good. It was creamy and had a good matcha flavor. I love how they added matcha powder on top. For drinks, I also tried their espresso martini and Bubbly Pineapple. The espressos here are good, no complaints. The Bubbly Pineapple is so cute; it comes out with a bubble of smoke you can pop. The drink is very refreshing; it really tastes like pineapple. FYI, the drink has little black seeds, so if you don't like textures in your drink, maybe this one isn't for you. Also the drink came with a little frozen pineapple you can add to your drink once you pop the bubble As an appetizer, I got a dozen raw oysters and decided to add the $5 tobiko (fish eggs). Let me say, they were not stingy with the Tobiko, there was so much on my Oysters, I mean a lot! The oysters were good, and so was the tobiko, but I feel that with so much tobiko, it kind of took away from the oysters. Still good though, especially for $21 for the dozen with the tobiko! It was very filling I'm not gonna lie, I got pretty full with the oysters, but I still had to eat my entree As an entree, I ordered the Short Ribs, which came with rice and a side salad. I didn't think I was going to eat much of my entree since the oysters had filled me up, but I ate the short ribs down to the bone! Every single one of those ribs I devoured, no meat was left on my plate. I didn't have space to eat, but my stomach made space for this. 10/10 would recommend the short ribs, especially with the delicious sauce it came with. I think it's like a fish sauce 10/10 for food and drinks. Bonus: the staff here is really friendly. I really enjoyed my time here. I need to come more often for sure, this is definitely a Katy gem

Had no reservations anywhere on a Friday night but called GiAu Bar n Bites & they said come on in, we don't get our crowd till late night. It was fairly empty at 7:30p but by the time we left at 9:45p there were a few more ppl. Funny thing is, the age of most customers was 40-60s. The music is pumping loudly with no DJ but at 9p the DJ came in & took the music up another level! I think the older folks come out early & likely the younger people take over after 10 or 11p. ( I won't be able to confirm that theory cause I'll be home by then!) Food & services were good as usual. The bartenders do a great job check them out!

What really stands out is how fresh…read moreeverything tastes -- the rolls are always made to order, and you can tell they use quality fish and ingredients. A must for us is the Toro Tartare with the Japanese milk bread. The bread completely elevates the dish. My husband and I also love ordering the Bluefin Flight, and the little hand roll that comes with it is always such a nice bonus. The Black Widow Roll is another favorite -- it always comes out warm with lightly fried soft shell crab, cream cheese, snow crab, eel, and avocado on top. The textures and flavors are so good together. Our girls love the simpler rolls that are packed with fish. Some family favorites are the Crunchy Dynamite Roll, Lady Gaga Roll, and the Tokyo Giant Roll -- all super fresh and flavorful. We do ask for the sauce on the side. We've also done hibachi here a couple of times, and it's always a great experience. The hibachi side is kept separate from the sushi restaurant, which makes it feel like two experiences in one. The chefs are engaging and entertaining, and honestly, who doesn't love buttery fried rice cooked right in front of you? Definitely one of our go-to restaurants in the neighborhood!

Went with 2 my friends for lunch. We wanted to order from the hibachi lunch menu but the hostess…read moretold us they only serve the hibachi lunch to parties of 4 or more.... We were bummed when we were told this because it didn't say it didn't mention this anywhere on their website or in the restaurant. It felt like we were being discriminated... A family of 3 walked in and also wanted the hibachi lunch. We explained what the hostess stated to us and asked could we merge parties to become a party of 6. Thankfully, they were fine with us doing so! They sat us around 11:55am and we weren't served soup/salad until about 12:25pm. The hibachi then came out at 12:30pm exactly. The staff moved extremely slow. Our waitress wasn't very attentive. She didn't want to show us the sushi menu she said it wasn't available.... The actual hibachi meal was good. I got the chicken hibachi. It came with mushroom soup and miso salad for starters and then chicken, vegetables, noodles, and rice. One lady did have an onion allergy and the hibachi chef cross contaminated a few times. His cooking utensils touched the onions for the volcano part of the hibachi show and then proceeded to touch the rest of the food with the same utensils.... - So make sure to show up as a party of 4 if you want the hibachi lunch. - Don't come if you're in a rush, thankfully we didn't have plans that day. - If you have an allergy, just know there's cross contamination.

Could've used a few more red bell peppers. But I understand you work with the ingredients you have. The Egg Fried Rice portion was HUGE -- enough to easily feed 4 people. So, I've got leftovers! I did not love the course black pepper on the Edamame, and definitely prefer coarse salt. This place is so close and convenient to my home. I'm sure I'll try a couple of other dishes in the future. The staff was super-nice when I picked up my order.
