Wow! I was NOT expecting much from this visit. I could not have been more wrong! Dining is eclectic and located in the gas station/general store. It is an original dining experience for sure. We tried just about everything on the menu and it was delicious. Needless to say, my outlook on gas stations sushi will never be the same! Service was great and staff very friendly. Definitely coming back!

My beautiful wife and I were driving the Bluebonnet Trail and this place was recommended to us. The interesting feature about this place was that they sold sushi, which isn't a big deal to me, since I don't care for it. If you want sushi from this place, we were informed that they don't offer it on Mondays. They did offer other Asian food as well as regular American fare. You order at the counter inside the general store. I ordered a cheeseburger with fries. It was incredible. One of the best cheeseburgers I've had in awhile. It was made fresh to order. My wife ordered the orange chicken with rice. Her meal was pretty good too. You could eat outside or they had an indoor eating area next to the general store. The rest of the place was a convenience store and gas station. Please give this place a try.

Of all the times I've ordered food from here it has always been amazing! I love how fresh my food tastes every time I order take out from this cute little spot. I always call in my order to pick up & their service is always on point. I love how I don't have to drive far away to get sushi. I have been missing out all these years without buying my sushi from here. Most definitely recommend this sushi spot for all your sushi needs. :) You will love it!

This place was highly recommended online and by the welcome center before we started the Bluebonnet Trail. Unfortunately we were here on a Tuesday and they do sushi starting Wednesdays through the weekend. The plus side was they did have tacos and we were told everything was freshly made and it was really good! We got both beef and chicken to try, the chicken was my favorite. My husband and I also got some fried rice to share and it was delicious as well. I honestly would not have made this our food stop without all of the recommendations and very glad we did.

We've been to Ennis numerous times over the years; but never to the annual Polka Festival held every Memorial Day holiday weekend. I can tell you this, it's not much fun when it's hot and humid. Most of the attendees retreated to one of the three air conditioned halls to eat and enjoy some Czech polka music. We went to the Visitor's Center, gave the vendor's a once over, discussed the Czech food options and then did something TOTALLY different. Looking over the Yelp restaurant listings, I spotted the Bristol General Store and Grill and saw the word "sushi." I also saw the map. It wasn't in Ennis. It was out in the country! What? Seriously? Wonderful!! Away from the sweltering pavement heat and rolling down a hilly FM two lane road, I immediately felt cooler. Actually in the tiny town of Bristol, The Bristol General Store and Grill is a combination gas station, convenience store and sushi restaurant/sandwich grill that appears like an oasis in the desert. There's a spacious dining room that you enter from the outside after ordering in the convenience store side and you wait there for your order. The older dynamic couple that create the magic here do everything with the help of only one other person - an amiable young guy who cashiers and does other duties as assigned it seems. This is one very busy place. We didn't get crazy and kept it simple; but they have an extensive sushi nigiri, hand roll, sushi roll menu with traditional Fried Rice and Noodle dishes, sandwiches and sides. There's a huge picture menu with descriptions on the wall for the sushi and sushi rolls. Everything is made to order and everything we had was well prepared. The onion rings were exceptional. They were tender and crunchy with a very flavorful batter. My husband's grilled chicken sandwich was plump and juicy. The wasabi was hot and the pickled ginger pungent. Our spicy tuna roll was as advertised and the salmon was tasty, too. What a treasure this place is!! These people are so friendly, too, when they get a minute to talk!! It's so pretty out here on the Ennis North Bluebonnet Trail with the gently rolling hills and beautiful view of distant Dallas. Just out of Bristol, on Sugar Ridge Road, is the Sugar Ridge Winery. Get your food To Go and maybe pop over to the vineyard for a picnic and a little wine tasting! Of course, at Bluebonnet time, keep them in mind and stop and take advantage of this terrific little place out in the middle of the wildflowers!

The best sushi I've had in a while. We had the fried roll, fried California and the Texas roll.

Shrimp tempura roll and sunset roll

We loved our stop at Bristol General Store. I have never been in such a clean gas station. They have plenty of drinks and snacks but they also have restaurant food to order. The burgers looked amazing but we were told we had to try the sushi! Yes gas station sushi. It was really good. Service was amazing. Everyone there was so kind and helpful. They have picnic tables out front and the. A side room inside that was super clean. And they have live music on Mondays!! Oh and they just got their liquor license so you can stop for a cold beer! We will be back!!

Driving back to Houston, we wanted to stop to eat and being adventurous we thought the 10 min drive from 45 didn't seem like a big deal for some decent lunch food. Yes, it's a gas station! Yes, the owners take your Order and that's when I knew this place was legit. Sometimes small towns surprise you! Clean and cute eating area. For those with a sense of adventure and looking for something to eat other than fast food for a good price, then take the quick trek (the view is nice) to this whole in the wall and you will not be disappointed!

This place looks a little sketchy on the outside but definitely worth the stop. The sushi is amazing and the prices are very reasonable. I ordered the California roll, shrimp tempura, and Texas roll. All were really yummy! Excited to try the other items next time :)

Salmon sashimi- huge portion and very fresh.

Who would have thought that the best sushi roll I've ever eaten would be in Ennis, Texas?…read more This is a great spot with a trendy Asian vibe. From the moment you walk in, the decor is on point--jazz music playing softly in the background creates a classy, relaxing atmosphere. The menu is amazing! I ordered the Louisiana Roll--fried (of course, like everything else Louisiana!), stuffed with crawfish, avocado, cream cheese, and topped with crab slaw, more crawfish, spicy mayo, and oyster sauce. Out of this world! My wife ordered the Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box for dinner. It came with a refreshing salad topped with ginger dressing and hands down the best bowl of clear soup we've ever had. The box itself is huge--easily enough to feed three! The chicken was plentiful and very flavorful. The box also included six California rolls, two shrimp tempura, two fried gyoza, and some of the best fried rice we've ever tasted. We finished with the fried banana dessert. It was inexpensive, delicious, and beautifully presented. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu... maybe! Highly recommend this place!

Instead, one came sickeningly sweet with an unlisted cinnamon syrup, and the other still had a strong cinnamon taste. When we questioned this, the server casually mentioned the cinnamon syrup--something not disclosed on the menu. I had to specifically ask her to take one back rather than her responding promptly. Next, they brought our sushi rolls, but no plates, no soy sauce, and not even dishes for dipping. We had to ask for all those basics. I specifically chose two rolls without cream cheese--because I don't want cream cheese in my sushi--and yet one still had it. The server's response was to chat with a manager but not to offer any solution, compensation, or correction. Overall, if a menu lists certain ingredients, that's what should arrive. Adding things like cinnamon in a drink or cream cheese in a roll--especially when people might have dietary needs--is careless. They need to be more attentive to both the menu and the customer's feedback.

I went to Fujiya Ramen for lunch and had a really solid experience. I'd give it an 8/10 overall…read more I ordered one cocktail, calamari, and a Philadelphia roll. Everything came out pretty quickly, especially the drink, which I appreciated. The calamari was good and the sushi was fresh and enjoyable, definitely some of the better sushi I've had south of downtown Dallas. Service was also pretty good. I had a few questions and they were all answered without any issues, and the staff was attentive without being overbearing. It wasn't too packed when I went, almost on the slower side for lunch, which honestly made the experience feel very relaxed. It's a really family-oriented, community-run type of place, and I'd actually love to see them get a little more lunch traffic because the quality is there. Overall, I'd definitely recommend it. Solid spot, good food, and I'd go back again.

To clarify I have been here more times in the past, but this is a 3rd strike and you are OUT experience. This time I just ordered a single sushi roll and still no food. Waitress did nothing to try and remediate the issue. I order 1 sushi roll and others at the table ordered multiple, even the hot food came out. We had 13 people at the table with 2 more tables of our group who came after us and still not food! Those tables after us were all served and finished and still my sushi did not arrive at the table. Had to ask them to make it to go and still had to wait! To make it worse the sushi was terrible. I ordered the Godzilla roll, no flavor and it was soggy. The soy sauce they put in the bag was low sodium which add nothing to an already terrible Roll.

Initially service was good, and they were attentive to us, but gradually it declined. It took around almost an hour for us to get our food. Parties that were seated before us, and around the same size got their food before us and left before we even got our food. They were also pretty rude when we asked about one of the rolls that were missing. They didn't give us any updates throughout unless we went out of our way to ask them.
