    I was really looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. The service was disappointing--the cashier seemed like they didn't want to be there, which wasn't very welcoming. I also ordered a matcha that cost over $8, and it was surprisingly watered down and lacking flavor. While the café itself is absolutely adorable, the overall experience didn't justify the price. Sadly, I don't think it's worth a return visit.

    Great spot for Japanese sandos (sandwiches)! Both hot and cold sandos are available here. Spicy Chicken Katsu Sando - Appreciated that they cut the sandwich in half for convenience. Plus triangle-cut sandwiches taste better lol. The sliced Chicken Katsu pieces were thick, juicy, and super crispy. Amazing bread too, light and spongy, with the crusts cut off. Nice additions inside - the savory sauce had just a hint of spice and the shredded cabbage was crunchy and fresh. Mango Cream Sando - the cream inside was light and airy, with subtle sweetness. Paired well with the sweet and fresh mango. Great dessert sandwich to finish off the meal. For drinks, they have a large assortment of coffee, tea, matcha, soda refresher, slush, and more. We got the Ube Cream Coffee, which was one of their popular drinks (had a star next to it on the menu). The coffee itself was super rich, like classic Vietnamese coffee. Interesting twist with the Ube Cream on top. Fluffy and cloud-like with nice Ube flavor. I'm glad they gave a lot (1/3 of cup), since it was yummy and made the drink more creamy. Love the book wall, it goes up to the ceiling with floating books too. The interior gives such cozy vibes, especially with the dark wood tables and shelves. Fast service - no wait to place my order and all my food was ready after checking out the decor. They have a small sando menu but they have mastered them well, so it's easy to pick from the short list. Lovely to grab a sandwich and coffee here to relax!

    Japanese Sandos! Ordered the Ebi/Shrimp Sando (loved the crispiness of the shrimp, my favorite one), Spicy Chicken Sando (nice little kick and chicken was cooked all the way through/had good flavor) and the Egg Sando (came as a cold item and eggs were creamy). The milk bread they used for the sandos were really good and soft/pillowy. Deff get the Ebi/Shrimp Sando! For a drink, I got the Pandan Cream Coffee. Strong coffee taste and the pandan cream was a salted version which balanced out the strength of the viet coffee flavor. Inside had plenty of seating and you can buy cute keychains from the front as well. Parking - Within the plaza

    Honestly. Pretty good sandwich. I love shredded cabbage. I think it's so underrated. Good texture. Chicken was moist. Tonkatsu sauce is always a plus. Bread was not weak and held the sandwich together together nicely. A bit on the sweeter side.

    This place is located in katy nearby the 99 ranch. It used to be a kung fu tea and the interior looks the same as it was before. Their menu is pretty diverse and offer a bunch of different options. I wanted to try one of their sandwiches but I will save it for some other time. We ordered their banana cream matcha latte and strawberry matcha latte. The banana cream is more on the artificial side but I don't mind it. The strawberry matcha latte is actually pretty good maybe a little bit on the sweet side but you can still taste the matcha. I would also like to add that I like their cup size because it's a pretty decent size.

    Egg sando

    Was in Katy and stopped by Sando Satori for a quick lunch. Got the egg sando and a lychee soda. The shop is cute and cozy and it came out relatively fast. The egg sando is simple, a classic Japanese egg salad, spiced up with a soft boiled egg in the middle. I do wish the egg was a little runnier and more jammy. I also wish there was a little more salt in the egg salad. The bread was nice and soft, but also smaller than I expected? Overall, a quick and good meal. Definitely more on the expensive side. Probably not anything I'd go out of my way for but if I'm around, I'll definitely be back to try their other options!

    This is a quaint little spot on South Mason Rd, between I10 and Kingsland. The food menus is limited to just a few items. But that's a good thing! Four savory sandos, four sweet fruit sandos, and a Chicken Curry Bowl. But these few offerings allow them to keep the prices in control, and present consistent quality with their items. There is a more extensive tea and beverage menu. They currently y have 2 different Sando + Matcha duo deals. The two gals behind the condo are very friendly, but they were having a lot of problems processing payments because their Internet was being very glitchy.

    I stopped by for an afternoon late lunch and had a shrimp sandwich. Sadly, it wasn't a part of their combo meal. It was a bit pricy. After you order, you wait to pick up your order at the cashier area. When you are done, you bus the table yourself. It's a very casual cafe. They were very quick and the sandwich was tasty but I would had liked the bread to be warmed up too. The room has a nice study ambiance and wall plugs under the chairs. This seems to be a great place to study for a while. Next time, I'll need to try their cold sandwiches.

    Chicken Katsu Sando

    Sando Satori absolutely lived up to the hype. Considering everything was made fresh to order and we ordered 4 hot sandwiches plus 2 drinks, the wait time was honestly very reasonable. The drinks were fantastic. The strawberry matcha and cloud lavender matcha were perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and you could still truly taste the matcha instead of just sugar. For the food, the ebi and chicken katsu sandos were incredible. Both came out hot, crispy, and packed with flavor, while the bread was unbelievably soft and fluffy. The egg sandos were also excellent, and I loved the addition of the soft-boiled eggs because it added both great texture and presentation. The biggest surprise for me was the strawberry cream sando. That thing was AMAZING. The bread was slightly sweet and different from the hot sandos, which made it pair perfectly with the cream and strawberries. Honestly, everything was so good that we completely inhaled the food before even thinking about taking photos. Definitely one of the best sando spots I've tried, and I'll absolutely be back.

    Love it when places don't charge an arm and a leg for literal sandwiches. We tried their collab at the poke shop in the heights and safe to say we will be coming to the brick and mortar to try the rest of the menu since they were out of so many things when we got there. Chicken Katsu (5/5)- chicken was crispy, juicy, tender. Sauce was delicious, bread was soft and airy, and the slaw complemented the sandwich very well. Egg sando (5/5)- the egg in combination with was very fluffy and pillowy, felt like biting into the layers of a cake, but more airy. I can't recommend this one enough. Strawberry cream (3/5)- too much bread to strawberry and cream ratio. The strawberries were sweet tho.

    Shout out to Elite Yelper Sara I. for telling me about this place at her UYE. I decided to check this place out right after, as it was only 5 minutes away. Located at the end of a strip center, so the parking is shared with other businesses. There was a dumpster just next to the entrance. So there was an unpleasant smell when walking up. But I didnt let that deter me. There was only a few folks inside, so not busy at all. It's cutely decorated, with a cool 3d bookcase that looks like an art piece. It's got some cozy lounge seating for hanging out, and long tables for studying or getting work down. Service - was easy, order at the counter and wait at a table. My food came out hot, fresh out the fryer. Only waited 5 minutes. They had a good play list going. Food- I was torn between the shrimp & chicken sando. I asked for a recommendation from the server that rang me up. He said he doesn't eat much seafood, and he enjoys the chicken sando as its brinded over night with salt & sugar. The sando is made katsu style with chicken cutlet panko breadcrumbs, shredded cabbage, and a mayo style sauce, milk bread. It was decent. It's large caloric sandwhich of 700+ calories. So if your looking for a healthy option, this ain't it. They do have drinks, but I didn't try any since I had just had one. The drink menu did look appealing.

    The matcha cream strawberry sando had big and sweet strawberries. The Fried Ebi sando had sweet and tender shrimp, though the hot and crispy batter was a little oily. Everything (bread, cabbage salad, and fried shrimp patty) did taste sweet. The egg sando was good.

    I ordered the spicy chicken sando and it was so salty! I will pass on that next time. The taro milk tea and requested zero sugar, ended up being to be so sweet. Very disappointing!

    I visited during lunchtime for the AYCE and it wasn't bad at all. I tend to lower my expectations…read morewhen it comes to AYCE and revolving sushi, but 25 Sushi House does it well. The selection is a bit more limited for lunch, but the price is lower than dinner as well. Being AYCE, I wouldn't expect the highest quality, type, and cut of fish, but what they had was pretty solid, tasted fresh, and was delicious. A minor complaint would be they had no sashimi option, even for the tamago which I personally believe is eaten best without rice, but that's just minor stuff considering the good value here. As much as I try to find a reason not to give this place an outstanding rating, if I compare it to the AYCE category of restaurants, it did everything right. They do have a regular a la carte menu, with a selection that looks like a treat in itself. As for me, I highly enjoyed their jalapeno bomb to start. I highly doubt they used snow crab, tasted like imitation crab, but I enjoyed it nevertheless and got another order at the end. I tried a few nigiri while I was here, with eel being my favorite (and thank goodness for no bones, which was lucky because it's eel). Their tacos were an unexpected standout and is worth a bite or two. Using sheets of nori and frying it to it holds up like a shell is pretty genius and more places need to do this. I had a good time with their Burning Alaska signature maki, which has salmon as the main star. The smokiness from torching was a killer! Their curry reminded me of S&B, which might very well be the mix they used. I was a bit disappointed to not see fish katsu as an option considered it's a sushi place, but I can see the katsu curry selection being a good option as a comfort dish. I wish I had the stomach space to try out new stuff, but maybe next time. Wish someone would post a photo of the salmon skin salad, because I'm a bit curious about that!

We genuinely wanted to support them. Unfortunately we could not bring ourselves to continue supporting business where the owner does not have business ethics, or perhaps human decency? (Turn out we are not the first with such unpleasantly disappointing treatment from the owner, and I am sure we will not be the last. If the owner decides to continue being rude and unprofessional to customers as well as treating customers like he is a social justice warrior all righteous and almighty, well good luck) Only if we knew sooner, by reading others' similar experiences/reviews as well as the owner responses to them with such rudeness and sarcasm, we could have prevented it from happening to us LOL

I'm proud that they have servers of this caliber at Asian restaurants in Houston, TX. Usually you see professional servers at upscale restaurants. There was a busboy there towards the end, and even he was super professional. Whoever the manager is at this location, you guys are doing an outstanding job training the staff here. Keep up the good work! 2. Price - about $15/bowl. 3. Ambiance - The decor here is beautiful. There are natural lighting from the front, with wood panels everywhere, lanterns hung high. They did a nice job decorating the place and you definitely feel as if you're in Japan somewhere. 4. Food - This is where this place shines compare to all the ramen places in Houston. They have the option of low sodium broth. I took one sip, and it felt like home cooked Ramen. I'm not talking about instant ramen that you buy from the store, but the ramen made from scratch. I often go to ramen places in Houston and I dread going because I know how salty they taste. There are 2 other locations I have in mind in Houston that are also my favorites. But I would say this is not bad compared to the bowl of ramen I had in Narita, Japan. If you're wondering what I've ordered, it was the CHICKEN RICH RAMEN and make sure to request for low sodium. 5. Cleanliness - Dining area is well kept, clean, and the busboy is on top of things. The restroom is questionable. The personal restroom doors are hard to close and lock. For management, have a look at the restrooms and see if you can improve things. SUMMARY: I would definitely come back. It is just THAT GOOD!

Between two people, we ordered: miso soup: as expected Chicken Combo Yakitori: 2 meats and one veggie, not bad salmon belly and salmon nigiri: amazing, Salmon was as expected, the salmon belly was better.

I wish I ordered this first but I was soooo full, I was struggling at this point. Not pictured, Kisu sushi: It had a strong taste and a slight rubber skin texture. It was nice to try it but I don't need to again. Not pictured, ray fin jerky: Someone ordered this and was meh bout it. it was sweet. I think I was the only one who liked it. I would highly recommend the following; mushroom miso rice, eggplant miso cheese, salmon belly, tai sushi. These are must haves. Ray fin jerky is a maybe if you like sweet jerky or not, this dish was a hit or miss at the table. Our waitresses were amazing and very sweet. One seems to be fairly new but I think she will do well with more experiences as she gets the hang of handling large parties. Our table was stable, but because of the angle from the windows, the light kind of blinded one of our friends in the face. I would recommend stronger blinds for the front. I really liked the decorations. They were all sea shaped based, like a few of the lights were "waves". I thought they were cute. Amazing place, I'm excited to come back again to try their other dishes like barracuda and aji fry! Also, free parking out front!

There was literally a twelve course, meal which was kind of insane, but awesome and you order one through twelve but then we got our items kind of all jumbled up. So we had sashimi first as opposed to our soup, which arrived on the fourth course. Are server was nice, but it felt like she was very new. Venue: this place I believe used to be a hot pot venue. I never went there previously. But in general, it looks fine it doesn't look particularly super special. Parking: this is a shared lot with lots of other businesses. We needed to park a bit of a ways away, but it is tolerable to walk. Food: this is more of a message to management than anything else but the flavored house sakes are COMICALLY bad. We did a flight of them. I believe there are seven or so, and each one was more thick and sweet than the next. Gross. Value: I think in general it was a great experience. The price point, it gives you two options of things to try. It was really cool for the restaurant week that there was some of the higher end items included.

We ordered the chicken tenders, fries, cheese sauce, Italian Beef and Sausage sandwich with sweet peppers, onion rings, and chocolate cake shakes (a must I've heard). Everything was delicious! My husband's beef and sausage sandwich took a little bit of time because they were making it fresh which was much appreciated. The chicken strips were good too.
