    Dragon roll
    Ashley L.

    The food was very good and the display was even better. We joined as a large group and they are not built for that, but the service, taste, and ambiance made it worth it. Keep up the good work and don't change.

    Hidden Gem Food & service was awesome. The decor was very nice. Prices were reasonable with large servings. We will definitely be back.

    Grasshopper roll(?)

    This is a cute, initmate spot in the middle of the Baytown square. I think the spot was really cute and the waitresses were very sweet. However, the food was just really underwhelming. Caterpillar roll: This is pretty good. I thought the decor was cute and kooky. I think it was eel inside, which was a really good favor. It just had a little too much cream cheese. Grasshopper roll (?): I am not sure if this was the correct name but this roll was just...not it. The rice to meat ratio was so big that I literally just had to pick off the rice. It was deep fried on the outside which made it very hard to eat. It was also swimming in some type of sauce that felt really unnecessary.

    This is a great place for fresh fast seafood. Everything was made to order and had an very and nice attentive waiter. Mind you - we were the only ones in restaurant but was recommended by a few people. Highly recommend and full of flavor!!

    This is the sushi with no name, so you'll just have to show him this pic and see if he can make it for you!

    We were working near the square, in Baytown, and happened to come in and give this place a try. First off, I always sit at the sushi bar; especially if it's a few of us. Depending on how much we like the place, maybe a big party as well will sit there. It's the only way to connect with the sushi chef. Our chef that night, Thomas, was quiet and was working below my sight. It had me a bit worried that I couldn't see the actual work, but that was the best part... I told Thomas what I liked and he said that he would make me a sushi dish that is not on the menu and has no name. We chatted while he worked (I couldn't see any of it) as I waited for my plate and my friends to arrive. My friends came and then Thomas brought up a freaking masterpiece! (See pic and video). My friends immediately jumped on the same bandwagon and ordered to their likings and not from the menu. The place wasn't crowded and we had Thomas' full attention. Holy mackerel! All of them looked amazing and tasted to match! I told Thomas that Baytown doesn't deserve him! Please prove me wrong and visit this amazing place and ask if Thomas is there. This place is a hidden gem and I do take my sushi seriously so I was impressed. Pro tip; don't expect Indy pit crew speed. These tasty pieces of art take time and the friendly staff will make sure to keep your drinks full while you wait. Baytown.... Get to The Square and get some artsy and tasty sushi!

    Food (3 sushi rolls) was good but the wait took a long time (40 minutes) for the restaurant not being busy at all. Environment was nice though, very chill vibe.

    I wasn't personally as impressed as some of the reviews I saw before deciding to come here instead Of somewhere else for out of town sushi. It was solid but not special on my trip. I posted pics of my rolls. No special displays like I saw in the pics posted here. And when I asked what rolls were favorites and I even expressed I ate sushi often and everywhere and wanted to know what was special HERE, the waitress said the Rainbow roll?! Ook. I ended up with a safe bet, Alaskan, and a special one called the Kiss My Bass Roll -- has seabass on top. Very average. Not bad. I also had yellowtail sashimi. It was solid! Let's get away from food. Everyday has happy hour seemingly tonight I had 2 $4 glasses of wine --so that did not suck. Service was attentive, a bit rushed as I was one of two tables here around 530pm, and she had my check before my sushi or my wine was even finished---had she not rushed me I'd prob have ordered another glass while I wrote this lol. Music. Awful. We'll be prepared for cheesy 90-80s. If that's your thing while eating sushi cool but I don't want to "party like it's 1999" or "celebrate good times" unless I'm 99 drinks in....at a bar much drunker. Overall. Solid choice for being from out town but not special enough of a first time to come back next visit.

    Seaweed salad
    Emerald D.

    Found this place off Yelp while I was in Baytown (leaving the gym) saw that it had good reviews. Now that I've gone, I concur! It's in old Baytown near the square, easy parking even on a Saturday night. There was no wait, surprisingly, and the noise level was average with some good, hit music playing. I ordered the Cajun roll and the Cayabunga roll. Both were good, but the Cayabunga roll stole the show. The Cajun roll wasn't spicy like I thought it would be and the scallops weren't very tasty or texturized. It is a baked roll, so I guess I could expect that. Overall it just doesn't taste what I think of when I think "Cajun." The Cayabunga is one I would order over and over! My date had the seaweed salad, presentation and flavor were nice but the martini glass it came in kept the portion on the small side. I'd rather more seaweed salad and less spring mix in the bottom. I also had the gyoza/dumplings. They are fried, fully. Flavor and sauce it comes with is good - just good. I'm more of a steamed dumpling with a little pan sear rather than a fried dumpling We didn't have the drinks but I'm sure we will be back. This place was great. Also, the service was awesome. Calm, friendly, informative. Couldn't complain about anything with the service.

    Literally my favorite sushi place. I try to come here every week or so. The house sauce is the best thing on earth.

    Great experience even as we arrived just 40 min before closing…read more We chose more conventional Chinese dishes, beef with potato over noodles and beef with broccoli over rice. We also tossed in a sampler of steamed dumplings that were excellent. Our beef dishes were fresh and tasty. Service was prompt and patient as consuming the large portions took us right up to closing time. Recommended.

    This restaurant left a lot to be desired. I took a chance while I was in Baytown as I saw they had…read morevarious locations around Houston. As we walked in the hostess/waitress looked at us and kept asking "what?" at least 4 times before she realized we wanted a table for 2. We were seated and we felt like we were inconveniencing the waitress as she seemed to not really want to be there at all. It felt like wanted to take our orders, and leave our table ASAP. Maybe she was having a bad day, but it did not seem like standard service. The "fresh" soup dumplings were so thick and chewy. Normally soup dumplings are supposed to be thin and delicate but these were the complete opposite. The beef noodle soup lacked flavor all around. I ordered it with wide noodles as the server told me they were around half an inch wide, my noodles came out and they were over an inch wide... which is not what I expected. The scallion pancake was the best item I had that night and that says a lot since it was probably frozen/pan fried. The poor service coupled with the food definitely left a bad taste in our mouths. I wouldn't go back or recommend this place to anyone as there are plenty of other soup dumpling restaurants in the Houston are

We checked in with a family of 5 and were hit with a 20-minute wait for the hibachi dinner. HOWEVER, we were seated within less than 5 minutes with another family of 4 that was already seated. As we were looking over the menu to order, the waiter came over to take our drink order. As he was taking the order, I overheard him talking to the Mom of the seated party. He was apologizing for the long wait that they had been partaking in. Mind you, this is only the drink order. In actuality, the other party was waiting for 45 minutes! After our drinks came out, he took our food order. We inputted our order and waited for the chef to come. As we were waiting though, the table and party, directly and across from us, had their chef show up, cook, show out and serve their food. We had a salad, soup and appetizer come out as we waited. This is normal with mostly all dinners. During this time, we were told that we are just waiting for a chef to finish up at another table, so they can come over and serve our party. Here's the get down; -The seafood that was ordered was overcooked because our chef kept leaving the grill to grab other things. *Shrimp, Scallops and Lobster -Having chicken and steak could also be a factor because it takes longer to cook. But still, the seafood was tough and chewy. -Fried Rice was cooked well done and was served before any other dishes. -Steak was cooked, but we had different styles we needed and wanted (Mid Rare and Mid Well), and they were both cooked the same (Well Done) :( -The sushi shrimp crunch roll was perfect! -Shrimp tempura appetizer was a great Also, EVERYTHING is cooked with the same sauces and amount of spices that they bring out. UNLESS, you tell them that you don't want it, they'll cooke everything the same.

We stood by the host stand while multiple employees grabbed stuff from the host stand or around the host stand, but not once were we acknowledged. I believe how customers are greeted sets the tone for the place, and the bar was set very very low. We decided to give this place a chance and now we have cemented the fact that it sucks. Never coming back.
