We had a memorable experience, the food is simply amazing, the staff and service were just as incredible. The manager Justin helped us choose the tastiest dishes with something as simple as the type of roll I was craving. Our server Asia was super attentive and engaging, recommending drinks and dessert. They both deserve all the praise and more. Deff gonna come back and y'all should come by as well!

Spicy garlic edamame was really tasty! It feels like they use a garlic chili crisp. Would get this again.Also got the caterpillar roll, salmon skin roll, rock n roll and rainbow roll.

Soooo good!!! Definitely recommend. Drove over an hour just to eat here after reading the reviews and it DID NOT DISAPPOINT!! Ask for Joelene she was awesome, great service, friendly, professional and always made sure we were good. So happy and pleased we came here. Definitely a MUST here in Austin for sushi. Well be coming back even if its over an hour drive because it was worth it. Such amazing and fresh sushi and food!!! Ooo and drinks too!!

The food was AMAZING! We had never been here before and was happily surprised with how big the he menu was and the overall experience. Our server Jacob was attentive, friendly, and overall the first reason why we decided we will be back. Next, the food was fresh, sushi was at a great temperature, and the cocktails were delicious. I will absolutely be back and telling others about it .

This is my favourite sushi in Austin after trying many, many places. Very friendly staff, great quality food, nice atmosphere. Excellent happy hour prices for sushi and alcohol, either before 6.30, or after 9.30 on Thursday - Saturday.

I have Large orders placed for special occasions for my business when I like to treat my staff. Food is excellent and the whole team absolutely loves it! Not to mention large orders are easy to place and pickup and after 10 plus times putting in large complicated orders they have never once mixed up or missed a single item. LOVE THIS SUSHI BAR! Not to mention on a personal note I take my wife there on date nights and the atmosphere is relaxing, romantic, and super high class. I love everything about this restaurant =D

The sushi was great! Their fish is pretty high quality, I wasn't expecting that coming into this place, but they blew me away.

I had high hopes for this place.My party and I arrived during happy hour and the place was moderately filled. We picked a few rolls, specifically the Longhorn, Rainbow, the Hot Roll, and a few Nigiri selections. We ordered five maki rolls at 5 pm, and guess when our order came to our table?6:03 pm.We didn't have a heavy order, less than six rolls for our party of 4, but it took longer than an hour to get our food. After an hour passed, we considered walking out. In retrospect, I wish we had.We gave the food a chance but, the Longhorn tempura roll came out lukewarm. Tempura rolls are deep-fried and should be served immediately after being cut so that too much heat doesn't escape, but ours felt like they had been sitting for 10 minutes!Our server said that "they are having technical problems," and "the kitchen was struggling to get their orders printed," so it could just have been an off day. But our service, our food, and our experience were not what I would expect from such a highly rated restaurant.Try somewhere else if you're looking for something new.

Literally the best meal of my life. If you ever catch me eating sushi anywhere else, please shoot me in the head. Best part: those muther fuckin’ moving fans.

The staff is very friendly, even though our appetizers took longer than expected. Overall great food and service. Just the time management needs improvement.
