Have ordered delivery -ubereats from.tjis restaurant a handful of times. Finally remembered to leave a review. The sushi is usually fresh and they have an interesting variety. There was only one out of about 4-5 times in which I wasn't very satisfied. Love that you can order an assortment and their menu is simple. Some sushi joints have confusing menus which can be intimidating for those who are new to sushi. I have been hesitant to order sushi for delivery in the past but I recommend at least trying Hando.
I can see why this place will do well and why a lot of people like it. The menu is simple as are the hand rolls. The only difference is instead of doing a cone Hando produces a cylinder with the filling spread out evenly across the entire length. Also they use a roasted seaweed which is stronger than what's typically used and has a strong pleasant flavor. Having said that let's start with the service. My wife and I went for lunch. I was looking at the fixed menu of spicy tuna, crab and salmon for $15. Then I compared the sum of each individual price which was $7+$7+$6= $20. So I asked the waiter if the fixed menu hand rolls are smaller than the individual order hand rolls because it was $5 cheaper. He didn't know the answer and had to ask the sushi chef 4 times to get the answer, which was that the hand rolls are the same. So the conclusion is always order the fixed lunch menu because it's so much cheaper than the individual orders. Then order extra items that aren't on the fixed price menu. Then I proceeded to order the ocean trout from the same waiter when we were both interrupted by another waiter saying there was no trout. Only for my waiter to check and confirm there was trout available. Get your story straight, nosy 2nd waiter!Here's my take on the food: Toro sashimi was good and you can taste the sweetness. Squash blossoms with lamb was tasty. Hokkaido uni bite was sweet but slightly overpowered by the seaweed. This is one instance it should be served without the seaweed. My wife didn't like the blue crab and thought it tasted like cat food. I thought it was okay but I can see why she thought that because of the consistency. The salmon and blue fin tuna was mild. My favorite was the ocean trout and only because of the crispy bits inside. The beef skewers were disappointing due to lack of flavor and chewiness. I would expect a sous vide beef to be tender. I appreciated the Japanese cheese cake and it was similar to what I had in Tokyo. Overall, at $90 price tag, I left a little underwhelmed and wondering if I should stop to get a burger or filler. I'm not sure I got my money's worth but I also know my standards are higher. This place will do well, I'm sure. It'll just have to do well without me.
2 years later, and I still get SO excited to go to Hando! One of the absolute freshest sushi spots in Houston, with a fun and creative drink menu that is very Instagram worthy. The bar top only dining is the best when you’re coming in for a lunch for one!
Not your traditional sushi, only hand rolls and a very small menu, but I really enjoyed it. I didn't expect to either. Highly recommend trying. I like their Toro, Spicy Tuna, Yellowtail and Ocean Trout the most. Their Edamame is good and their Beef Skewers as well.
Came in on a Tuesday afternoon with my boyfriend. We loved the experience. Concept is great. Excellent service. Prices pretty reasonable. Food left something to be desired. Rice was extremely bland and its texture was a little too soft. Could not detect any vinegar, salt, sugar, nada… Not what I expected from a place that serves sushi. The cocktails might be better than the food, but probably won’t come back to find out.
Love this place. Fresh sushi. Tasty cocktails. I work near Hando and this is one of my favorite lunch spots. Ordering online for pick up is super convenient.
Trading with a trusted account manager is what can make your dreams come through. For me Mrs Mariel Ramsey has the best trading strategies to win. I never believed on any post recommending online trading until I gave a try and the outcome was great for me. Making $7,750 out of $1000 was a whole lot of profit for me. you can contact her via; Email: [email protected] WhatsApp +19736928825
The handrolls are so good!Just order the fried oyster handroll, is the BEST EVER!!!But in general all the rolls are great, Salmon and Tuna, great choices too.The customer service is great.If you dont have reservation, and there is a waiting list, you can go to the Kanpai bar, which is together with the restaurant and get some cocktails and edamame to calm down your hunger. It totally worth the wait.And when you are next on the list they will come to tell you that your spot is ready.The design and layout of the place is simple but great.At the end of your meal, they give you a courtesy desert.
Excellent food, drinks, and service...Very Very attractive place overall...I can't wait to go back!! The steak bites...??
Very cute and cozy atmosphere. Wonderful cocktails and happy hour bites. Fantastic curry, beef and fusion dishes as well. Both traditional offerings (sushi, sake, etc.), but also fun fusion dishes galore! If the main dining area is full, there's a side bar that is also great for drinks and small bites!
