    Spider Roll
    Ruthie W.

    Recently, we went to Sushi Express for a Saturday lunch. They had steady traffic, which was nice to see. Conner was the solo server so he was running around quite a bit. Dad and Hubby shared the Tempura Appetizer and the Galbi Tang, which is soup with short ribs. We all shared the Spider Roll, LA Galbi, and the Japchae. The ban chan (sides) are the best because they bring as much as you want. It was actually quite a lot of food that we ended up taking the Japchae home. It's the closest Korean restaurant to our home so when we need a quick fix, this is our go-to. For those in the Stone Oak area who haven't discovered Sushi Express, check them out!

    Banchan (side dishes)
    Sheryl L.

    I'm a newbie to Korean cuisine so I wanted to check out Sushi Express with the family. We started with the tempura appetizer, 2 shrimp and 4 veggies. We added another shrimp since there were 3 of us. The tempura was crunchy and not greasy. The LA Galbi had good flavor but some short rib pieces were bone with no meat. The banchan (side dishes) were plentiful. Nice that we could get refills at no additional charge. It was weird that we were given very small plates to eat family style. Shrimp Yakisoba had a good balance of shrimp, vegetables and noodles. I'd love to return to try more Korean food.

    Summer roll

    Stick with sushi. I usually get the lunch sushi special but this time I thought I would try something different and got the summer rolls. I opened it up and it wasn't even rolled or it busted and they just left it like that. I'm kind of glad it was though because then I saw the shrimp and saw that it wasn't fully cleaned

    The pork pocket/ bao was really good. The pork was cooked well, the sauce was good, and the cucumber paired well with it. The lunch roll combination 3 was good. I really liked the Stone Oak roll. I've never tried tteok-bokki, I didn't really like it but I won't hold that against them because I have never had something like that.

    LA Galbi Japchae KIMBOB (Maki Style) Kimchi-Jjigae Miami Fresh Roll (Vegetarian Roll)
    Viraj T.

    We decided to go here at the last min to get some korean food. Wasn't too busy on a saturday afternoon so the service was quick. The kimbap (5/5) was great! The roll is big, perfectly seasoned and subtly flavoredNice way to start the meal. The LA galbi (5/5) was amazing from the presentation the char to the flavor itself. Couldn't get enough of it with the white rice! The kimchi jiggae was a flop because the flavors were off. However our server was nice enough to take it off our ticket! The japchae w/o beef (4.5/5) was also really flavorful albeit slightly sweet. Mom had the Miami fresh roll which I couldn't comprehend nor brave enough to try but I'll take her word that it was good. Ended with the mochi ice cream (4/5) which is basically an ice cream wrapped with a chewy mochi covering. Loved that it wasn't too sweet! Overall it's a great place to grab a casual meal. Our server was super friendly and helpful so definitely check it out! Overall the food was pretty solid apart from the kimchi

    This is their  chicken teriyaki dinner, I will never go back

    There was some plastic wraps in the soup .. even though tang suyuk is beef in the menu, it was pork... bad experience..

    The absolute best Korean food in San Antonio. Amazing cucumber kimchi. This place is by far my favorite Asian restaurant.

    Came here on a Friday night for a double date. Definitely make a reservation because this place was…read morepacked and poppin. We didn't realize this place was a cousin of Shiro and owned by the same guy until we saw some similarities in their style, layout and menu but nevertheless, the food was still absolutely amazing. Even though the ambiance had some similarities, I'm glad their food options were distinguished because otherwise could have just gone downtown. You cannot go wrong with any of their food options. Highly recommend doing family style so you can get a taste of everything and all the different flavors. We started with the gyoza and calamari which were to die for and were not greasy at all. Pork ssam, wagyu, miso pasta and octopus all brought a little bit of their own element and flare to your palate that it's hard to describe unless you try it. Wagyu was just melt in your mouth delicious. Pork ssam and octopus had their crunchy texture and umami flavors. The miso pasta added a light refreshing touch to balance everything out but don't let it fool ya, the noodles will expand in your stomach. We topped it off with their yuzu cake. Our only disappointment was they were out of their other desserts but nevertheless everyone of us left full and happy. Would come here again.

    When I first read about Yozora, I honestly thought it sounded a bit pretentious. Fascinating, but…read morepretentious. Because the idea of music being an actual integral part of the dining experience--not just some kind of background noise--felt a little precious for my taste. I'm glad to admit I was wrong. So let's start with the ambiance and the vibe of Yozora. It's in a fairly non-descript kind of center; not bad but not specially memorable. But the space itself is open and has an air of restrained sophistication. And then there's that hi-fi set up. The music at Yozora really is part of the experience, but it's not intrusive in the way that you'd think. Most of what my dining companion and I heard was 50s and 60s jazz, and it was perfect for the occasion. Sushi and Coltrane are a great mix, and even though we were not far from the hi-fi system, I could hear every word of our conversation, without the need for either of us to raise a voice. Somehow, it's like the music operates on a different frequency from regular table chatter. Suffice to say, the music enhanced the mood and really set a scene for Yozora's chefs to tell some stories. And that, they do really well. We started out with seasonal tempura and miso masu ceviche--ocean trout marinated in miso, soy, and lime juice--that was sublime. But funnily enough, the real star small plate was a truffle creamy miso soup that was earthy and slightly sweet at the same time and was silky in texture. From there, we ordered a series of crudo and battera, each unique in its own way. It was wonderful stuff, accompanied by a rice lager. The kitchen at Yozora is not shy about experimenting with non-traditional flavors and ingredients. Sometimes it works really well; sometimes, not as well, but it's never bad, and the servers actually ask for feedback for the kitchen, which is something I rarely see. Yozora honestly seems to be most concerned with creating a great dining experience, and it does that, from the chefs to the line cooks to the servers (who are helpful and attentive without hovering). The music, the mood, and the menu add up to a memorable experience.

    We were excited to try this place because of the high reviews but almost everything we got was…read moredisappointing. Flavors were very American and inauthentic. The only thing we thought was ok was the roll we ordered at the very end. It wasn't too busy when we went but it was also hard getting the attention of our server to order things.

    TLDR: OK sushi joint in a spot well suited for dining pre-or-post seeing a film at the Santikos…read morePalladium. Stopped in for dinner prior to catching at film at the Palladium. Could be a nice, intimate place for dinner though we were seated next to a pretty loud group. Service was fast and friendly, which was appreciated. The meal itself was decent, not great. Tried the masago and snow crab off the sushi menu; the former was good, but the latter strangely dry, as if it had sat out a little too long. An appetizer portion of the shrimp and vegetable tempura was very good. Particularly puzzling was the unagi roll. Not only did each piece of the roll fall apart, it was doused with so much eel sauce that it was hard to taste anything else. Looking back on it, I should have sent it back to the kitchen. Of note was the tempura banana dessert, which was a sort of Japanese take on a sundae! Putting crisp, hot chunks of fruit up against sweet vanilla ice cream, sprinkles, and chocolate syrup (not berries as the menu claimed) was...well, interesting. I probably wouldn't order it again, but it is novel. Average it out and it's a decent place, though I would only come again if I was in the area for something else to begin with. This place scores a 3 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good. I wouldn't have my penultimate supper here, either.
