Worth the hype! My friends and I went for dinner on a Friday, so the restaurant was packed and had…read morea lively atmosphere. Despite it being busy, we got seated pretty quickly, and the service was excellent. Our server checked on us frequently, and she had great recommendations. They have an extensive menu, so there's lots to choose from. For nigiri, I really enjoyed the garlic ponzu salmon, garlic ponzu tuna, and umami oil salmon. I also loved the spicy salmon hand roll and ended up ordering it twice. Don't forget to ask about the secret menu! There were some great items that we got to try. I highly recommend Little Sakana for AYCE sushi, and I can't wait to come back with my family and friends.

The hand rolls are very balanced here with rice to fish ratios. I think the menu selection is…read moregreat, and they are super quick getting food out even when busy. The "secret" (not too secret) orders are also good, make sure to ask your server about those if they forget to mention it. I will say there was not anything too stand out to me, other than the variety. I think everything tasted about the way you would expect from an AYCE sushi spot in Houston but this one I did think was pricier for dinner than I would like since nothing stood out to me.

I've been here a couple of times and it's still a pretty good option for AYCE. The menu is pretty…read moreextensive and it's categorized clearly and with precision. The restaurant somewhat is small from inside, yet it seems that the servers are just going back n forth between tables and kitchen. The kiosk ordering systems helps take the burden off of the servers quite a bit, and it's easier to order at your own pace, when you're ready to. Their sashimi was very good. Thick slices of fish. Seaweed salad was good also. Vast selection of rolls. I do like their Starbuck and shaggy rolls a lot. They serve 4 pieces to a roll where as other competitors do 6-8. Also, both times I noticed that their rolls were coming apart, which is not too appealing. Nonetheless, the food is still pretty good and I do plan on visiting them again.

He had some great recommendations and suggestions. We are certainly coming back.

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. Shrimp Toast: it was cute and really like the texture. Mushroom miso rice : 5/5 would get this again You have to pair this up with the eggplant miso cheese. Eggplant Miso cheese: 5/5 would get this again. Same, pair this up with the mushroom miso cheese. 1 Spider roll/ 2 tempura roll hand rolls: as expected. Special house roll: I would pass. The others were much more memorable. Tai sushi: It was amazing, it was light, refreshing, and citrus all at the same time. 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!

We ordered salmon, white tuna sashimi, the Tiger Roll, Mega Pork Ramen, Spicy Black Garlic Ramen, and the Moonstone Plum sake. I eat a lot of sushi and my only minor complaint is that the salmon sashimi tasted like it had been sitting out for a little bit so it wasn't very cold and the texture was a little off. The server and chef were kind enough to replace it without and questions. Other than, all the food was good and I would definitely return especially for Katy area as it's hard to find a decent sushi spot.

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!

Food is amazing, we have been supporting them since their first ayce launch and have been going…read moreback regularly even after price increment + ayce menu reduction. 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

During lunch time on a Friday, it was moderately busy. My friend at the kung pow beef with fried rice and I had the shrimp lo mein. It was really good that I decided to go back for my daughter's 15th birthday during dinner time. We ordered three California rolls (no cucumber, add cream cheese), the Kung pow chicken and Kung pow beef both with fried rice, and a kids size orange chicken. Nothing was left on the table. We enjoyed every bite!

They have a nice selection of Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean and Japanese dishes. Every dish we ordered tasted exactly like it should have. It was pleasantly surprised as usually mixed selections like these miss a step. The staff were very nice and the owner/mgmt appeared to be on site. The restaurant was extremely clean and well lit. It was quiet for a Sunday but I wouldn't take point away for that. Definitely a return drive in the world.

I had a really great experience here and wanted to give a shoutout to our waitress. She was…read moreextremely kind, friendly, and attentive from the moment we sat down. She made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us throughout the meal without being overbearing. It honestly made the whole experience much more enjoyable. The food was also amazing! Everything came out much faster than I expected, especially considering how busy the restaurant was. Despite the quick service, the food was hot, fresh, and tasted really good. You could tell everything was prepared well and served with care. Overall, I was very impressed with both the service and the food. Having a friendly waitress who genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a good experience made a big difference. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good food, fast service, and great customer service. I'll definitely be coming back!

I'm so sad. This was our FAVORITE sushi restaurant. Jaden (our regular server) was always amazing…read more Have no idea what has happened behind the scenes, but our last two experiences have not been good. We came back thinking maybe the last time was an anomaly and it was worse. To be fair, the food is still good. What's gone downhill is the service. When we first started coming, everyone's order came on their own plate so there was no mixing up rolls. They came quickly and second rounds were also ordered and fulfilled quickly. Now, they bring them out in waves with all the orders mixed up. If more than one person orders sashimi - it's all on one plate. It's just a very challenging situation when folks are at opposite ends of the table. And they slow roll (no pun intended) any order after your first. Tonight, our server, while sweet, took half our order then wandered off for help with the tablet. She then went to two other tables to take their orders before returning to ours. Which completely messed up the timing of the orders coming out. She failed to refill our drinks until we asked her twice. Sadly, we will not be returning and it is 100% because something has happened with management / back of bar. Not because the food is bad.
