Have wanted to try Hando since it opened because I pass it all the time, and we finally went on Monday night for our anniversary (cancelled a rez at Brenner's in fact to go here instead - best decision ever!). Holy shamoley- AMAZING experience and even more amazing food!!! First of all, the ambiance is casual but nice, warm and inviting. The staff was all SUPER nice! Because of Covid, groups are seated with empty spots between, and because of the limited seating (all at the bar where you get to enjoy watching your food get made) we didn't feel like we were crammed into a crowded place at all. We tried just about everything on the menu- all of which was great- but our favorites were the Brussel Sprouts (OMG TOTAL HEAVEN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DONT MISS OUT ON THESE!), the Wagyu Tartare (also pure heaven) and the Wagyu Gyoza (you get 3 per order- we each had one and immediately ordered more they're insanely good). We also ordered the 5 piece Hand Roll Set - the Spicy Tuna was exceptional, as was the crab, the Yellowtail, and the Scallop. The Shrimp Katsu was good, but the least of our faves. As for the cocktails....holy crap! I had a Gin-za Fizz, which was hands down the best cocktail I'd ever had, until I tried my husband's My Rye or Die, which- seriously - is like Christmas in a glass, except you want it to be Christmas every day of the year because *insert cuss words here* THAT'S THE BEST DRINK EVER. I mean, we've had amazing cocktails all over the world, and we lived in New Orleans for God's sake, and we both agree that this IS the best cocktail anywhere. We tried to pry the recipe out of the bartender but nope- it's a secret, made from their own specially made rye blend. I'm a little hesitant to post this now because I don't want this Heights gem to become so popular we can't ever get a seat at the bar again, but I just want everyone at Hando to know that you made our anniversary beyond special. Thank you! We will be back ASAP. read more

Great food, great drinks, and absolutely amazing staff. Really good energy throughout the entire restaurant. Great music and the staff interacts so upbeat not just with their costumers, but also with each other. Always uplifting to observe! The lychee martini and miso soup were so unique and delicious! A must try. read more

Better to get individual orders than set order! Must have ocean trout, blue crab, shrimp Katsu, lobster (seasonal) hand rolls! read more

We have ordered takeout in the past from here which was great, but the real experience lies with dining inside, as that is where you're going to get the handrolls (uncut), along with some of their specials. My Wife and I were extremely happy with the quality of the service and more importantly the quality of the fish as it tasted very fresh. In all we had Toro, Spicy Tuna, Uni, Yellowtail and some of the spare ribs which were all delicious. In total cost us around $90 bucks, but we like to eat, maybe more than the average customer, and honestly when going for sushi we have no problem paying a premium for quality food. For those checking in on safety Covid wise, serving staff and the staff in the back wore their masks the entire time and were careful to remain distanced. The only consideration I would make is that it is bar seating style, so it seems like it can get pretty crowded rather quickly if you go during a busy time. Will definitely be back! read more

This is sushi for tea time - not worth the money! The cocktails were great but the brussel sprouts were just leaves, the sushi was tiny, the fish didnt seem that fresh. Totally overpriced no flavor - it a total hipster trap. read more

Hando - Sushi Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

A unique and memorable experience with high quality food and even higher quality of service. I really enjoyed the simplicity of the menu and the way the food is prepared right in front of you. The waiters and chefs are very kind and made for a fun and interactive experience. The yellow tail was the true stand out in my opinion. I also really enjoyed the fried oyster salmon and scallop! The spicy tuna was a bit over poweringly spicy imo, I'd like to taste the tuna a bit more. The gyoza were the biggest let down the meat was almost like hamburger patty texture and the price is steep for only 3. I will be back but with a bit more pointed approach! read more

We loved hand rolls so we decided to give this place a try! Like all hand roll places, they have limited seating so we had to wait when we got there that evening. It didn't take long though, I think we waited for 10 minutes? During the waiting period we wrote down what we wanted on the sheet. Once we sat down, we handed them our sheet and the rolls started rolling out. I had about 5 rolls. The quality of the rolls were pretty good! I would definitely come back here again. We also got an appetizer for free because the people next to us didn't order it and so the server just gave them to us. Seriously, we got so many free things while we were in Houston. Lol read more

Really good. Love their regular sushi but the Yasai roll is a surprisingly delicious veggie roll

We picked up food during the COVID Craziness and it was delish. I loved it all, from the packaging to the sushi rolls and their new entree of Chicken Karaage. They dont normally have sushi rolls on the menu but because they are better for carry out they have them temporarily. We got the salmon, yellowtail, tuna belly and shrimp tempura rolls. All of them were yummy. The Chicken Karaage even though would have been better fresh was still great by the time we got it home. Their rice is awesome, the perfect chew, vinegar and stickiness. Love!! I will definitely be going back when I dont have to be 6 feet apart from everyone. Go Support them!! read more

The freshest sushi ever! Excellent service and the food is delicious. It's close quarters, but once you get over people sitting pretty close next to you, it's great. A bit pricy but definitely worth it for the experience. read more

This place is an experience! Order as many rolls as you want and they'll make them fresh right in front of you and they'll give you one at a time. It's really nice because after each roll you get a break so you're not full super fast. I got 5 rolls which was just enough. Salmon was by far my favorite! Keep in mind it's a small place and everyone is seated at a bar! So I definitely wouldn't recommend coming in groups bigger than 3. The vibes are just right tho, music was poppin, staff was cool, and it was intimate! The wait wasn't long for us...we got there around 7:30 on a Friday night and only waited 15 minutes. Time will pass quickly because you'll be deciding what you want AND you'll be sipping on a drank! No complaints there! read more

Handrolls were timed perfectly. Some items maybe over priced. Sometimes the most simple rolls are the best. Great place if youre in the area. read more

I am loving this dedicated temaki trend! So far, Hando is my favorite in Houston. There's an actual parking lot, a good amount of seating, and a full bar! My husband and I shared a 5 piece set as we weren't super hungry and left super satisfied. Each handroll has its own unique flavor and the freshness of the fish is on point. I had the little death cocktail and it was delish! So pretty to look at and so easy to drink. read more

Came to Hando for the first time I tried to go earlier but they were only doing to go orders and with hand rolls you really want to eat them fresh, and u finally had the chance to try it! I was not disappointed Hando was amazing my bf and I tried almost every single roll on the menu and each one was amazing honestly no complaints at all with this place! My favorite one would have to be the shrimp katsu I live shrimp and it was so crunchy and flavorful. My bf favorite was the Toro you can't go wrong with any of them! It's a cute small place so since they're only at half capacity you want to get there early before a crowd. Super fun experience watching them make your food in front of you too! read more

It seems like the new hot thing in town after poke bowls is hand rolls. When you head in, it's a bit different than what you would expect from a normal sushi bar. There are a limited number of seats, so if you are here on the weekend, expect to wait a good. My friend and I were waiting approximately 30 minutes before getting a seat at the table. That being said when you come to Hando, you have to take a card from the far end of the restaurant and put down what you want. There is a brief description of what you are to expect, but herein lies the start of the problems. I ordered the five hand roll special and a lobster roll. As soon as we were sat down, our first hand rolls were served. We didn't even have time to use our moist towelettes. The manner of which it was served was a clear theme across the entire night. The person preparing them was there to just serve the bottom line. Throughout the night, there was absolutely no interaction between us. It almost seemed like he was working on an assembly line, trying to get as many of the orders our as soon as he could so that the next people in line could come in. He didn't even make eye contact with us, and I couldn't hear what he said when he put our hand rolls down. Then, there's the problem with the food. Overall, I will be fair and say that the rice was seasoned and cooked very well. However, a central theme of what was disappointing about Hando was for one, the nori and two, the overall quality. The nori seemed to be quite a bit thick. I think to compensate this, they use an extra layer of nori and tuck that in the back so when the customer bites into it, the filling doesn't escape out the other end. The way that this backfires is that because there is an extra layer on the top, the nori is already thick to begin with, it covers the roof of your mouth and sticks down. For constructive criticism, I would say that if there is a crispier, thinner option, the proprietors may want to consider this. Then, there is the seasoning of the hand rolls. My friend and I both thought that the hand rolls were ALL BLAND. I mean, maybe I am used to omakase type restaurants where you are meant to eat the sushi as is, but without a doubt every hand roll had a serious problem with the seasoning. Then, there is the problem with the fish. In the five hand roll special, the toro for some reason tasted almost like it was frozen. The yellowtail was actually quite good, and I could taste the fish well. Only problem is, I've had hamachi before and it's really nothing special. The next few hand rolls are where things really start going downhill. For the life of me I could not remember what was next on the menu, and I thought it was crab. Again I could not hear what the chef said to me. I took a bite, and I just couldn't taste anything from the fish at all. My friend then heard that it was scallop, and that's when I really kind of thought, wtf. To me, scallop is meant to be sweet, savory, and have an amazing texture. The texture was there, but it tasted like the life was completely lost from the fish. Nothing from what I ate could have indicated that it was scallop. Then, the crab roll. This is where the issue of temperature comes in. It seems like most of the ingredients come straight out of the fridge, and are served at a cold temperature with hot seasoned rice. The crab had the texture of canned albacore tuna. Stringy, underseasoned like everything else, and lacking in any sort of sweetness that I usually associate with crab. The cold temperature of the crab could have also dulled my senses as I tasted it, but either way, it is an issue of the prep. The shrimp Katsu is just a way to eat katsu in a hand held form. If I close my eyes, I would have just said it was shrimp katsu and not a hand roll. I think it's just a fundamental flaw of combining two things that really don't go together. You have a heavy sauce over a heavy deep fried shrimp in a hand roll that is meant to also be crispy. Then, the most disappointing and most expensive item on the menu was the lobster hand roll. The lobster I could swear is overcooked, or as a result of being freezing cold on top of a hand roll, had an off texture. Because it was so cold, I couldn't taste any of the lobsters sweetness. It honestly could have been imitation krab meat. What was weird for us was that the shishito pepper appetizer came after our hand rolls, and didn't have any taste at all. It felt like we were almost eating paper. The mayo also didn't do anything to help, and was honestly forgettable, especially for the price. Overall, I just felt like I was being rushed, and put through an assembly line of customers and not there for a pleasant night out. From the first moment we sat down it did not feel like we were welcome, but instead a bit of a nuisance and had to finish and get up as quickly as possible. When I go out for a meal, I want to take my time and enjoy the food, and at Hando, I don't think I can do that. read more

The worst dining experience in term of concept, design, and execution. At first you come in, they don't sit incomplete parties, which is fine. They make you line up in queue so the staff won't get confused as which guests came first. You are forced to stand about 2ft away from the sitting guests and watch them enjoy their meal awkwardly. Did they even think about using the restaurant pagers to customers so at least customers can wait outside?? That way we don't feel like we're lining up for free food in a soup kitchen?? The place is so tiny, they tried to cramp as many seats in as possible, so you end up rubbing elbows, arms, shoulders with other diners at least 20 times during the meal. It makes one wonders why this place has more than 20 investors but cant even afford a half decent dining room is beyond comprehension. The food was underwhelming at best. Miso soup comes with a side of foam was disappointingly bland and at luke warm temperature, we both didn't finish the soup. I don't understand why restaurants keep giving a food portion of 3 pieces when most diners come as party of two. Please give 4 pieces of gyoza and charge me more!! Im perfectly fine with that. The only good thing about this place is the crunchy nori wrap and the service staff that saved the day. Btw your cash is no good here because this is a cashless establishment. It makes one wonder how much revenue they would lose from out-of-towners or all the local people that prefer to use cash instead. This is one of those places that you wanna try out once and done because it tries hard to be edgy and different but miss a lot of marks. It's not NYC, we are in the Heights, we need more breathing room here. read more

Love the service and the atmosphere here. All the employees, host/esses, and servers are helpful, kind, and attentive. I've been here now three times with some good friends. I think if it's your first time, getting one of their hand roll sets can be worth it, but I now opt to choose a couple hand rolls I really want as the price difference isn't too large between the sets and ordering individually (and worth it if there's something different you want to try). For appetizers, the wagyu gyoza, brussel sprouts, and eggplant are really good. Make sure to also look at the chalkboard menu for their special hand roll. This has changed each time I've been :). For drinks, if you like sweet cocktails, I'd recommend the Shibuya roll call or the quiet storm. My friends have also enjoyed the clarified milk punch and the audacity! Parking is limited out front but street parking is available around the establishment. read more

We came at 6PM and did not get seated until 7PM which is significantly longer than its competitor. The parking is private and it was plenty around the time we went so not an issue. By the time we approached the door, the line was already close to it so if you're near the door, I would say it's about an hour wait. This might change when they are open longer. The layout is quite interesting because it's a bar shape with 2 people making the handrolls on either side. The middle of the bar is the bartender making drinks. There does not seem like they have a designated bartender and operate in a adhoc manner (whenever someone is free and if there's a ticket, that person see and do it). They even have a designated handicap seat which is quite different. It is very nice of them to accommodate, but it would be hard if someone were to be in wheel chair to wait in that line because that space between people dining versus people waiting is quite narrow. I would explain the service is very accommodating but they were not confident in their craft just yet. Overtime, that will change. I observed that between each other they would ask if the drinks were okay when they made the drinks. I understand that it's a new restaurant and they need the feedback, but it is pretty awkward for the clienteles. I ordered the 5 set and added on salmon. 1. Toro - bluefin tuna with scallion. This and negitoro is my favorite of out the line. It's semi-fresh and blended in very well with the rice. The seaweed is crunchy but the seaweed is a bit too thick. 2. Negitoro - same comment as toro but I'm able to taste the fridge burn. I still like this out of the line. 3. Blue Crab - it's interesting. My friend got the claw part and I got the body so if they're more consistent this would be better. The cilantro threw me off and I'll be happier without it. 4. Scallop (bay scallops) - y'all... it's cooked bay scallops. Completely threw me off and it's pair with yuzu. My suspicious that the acidity from the yuzu cooked the scallops like ceviche. However, definitely would skip 5. Shrimp Katsu - I would skip this too. it came freshly fried so very hot, be careful. There wasn't enough sauce for the katsu, I didn't care for this 6. Salmon - I should have opted out for this because the nikiri is a bit much. The salmon wasn't fresh, but at least the temperature is good on it. To note, their ginger and wasabi is not fresh meaning it's not house made or freshly grind. The soy sauce should be a little lighter to pair with the fresh fish to compliment, not compensate. The longer we sat there (it was about a 2 hr ordeal), the more we realized why it took so long. It seems like they wanted to be a sit-down restaurant where you chill with your friends and a fast-paced handroll place. It's either or because the space isn't big enough for it to be a typical restaurant. However, the clientele is treating it as such so you have a bottleneck of people waiting and a long queue. I believe the owner/manager can tell we did not have a great time so he gave us some coins, literally, for a free handroll or drink to try them one more. Honestly, it's not kazunori and toro/negitoro is going to be the closest because it's a supply chain problem at the end of the day. I would give them a try because they really care that you're having good time and enjoy their food. read more

So good and so fun. Fantastic HH! Must try! If I lived in Houston, I'd be there all the time!

Hando is great and has an awesome happy hour. Forewarning, they only have bar seating available. Toro hand roll is to die for. Cocktails are really good as well and come in cool glasses. read more

I really wanted to like this place. It was a neat experience but I don't think I will be back. I couldn't bite through the seaweed on the rolls (must have tiger teeth) and the brussels sprouts and seaweed salad were inedible. The brussels were not sprouts; rather, the outer most leaves drenched in oil and then drowned in an ocean of Bonita flakes and liquid smoke or something similar. As to the rolls, they were just okay. I understand that the restaurant is new but the staff doesn't know what goes on which roll and you can see them mess up and then throw whichever wrong protein back into what looks like a cooler. It's all very disconcerting. If you're going out for raw fish, I wish the staff would at least look and act the part. Three stars because (1) it's new and (2) the cocktails were good, as was the edamame / guac chips and dip. read more

Hando - Sushi Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

I love sushi, poke, hand rolls, etc. I wanted to love this place, but they hype is better than reality. Service was hit and miss. The staff seemed to forget about us at times even though it's a small restaurant. There's a lot of debate on which of the two hand roll restaurants are the winner, but in all honesty, all I know is I felt like a loser that night when I tried both. The toro here was fishy. That's a huge no no. Toro should have been the best of all the hand rolls. The miso soup with the mustard foam tasted like dirty water. The foam was tasteless. The staff was nice though but not attentive enough. I wouldn't go back. read more

This is my second time going to a handroll restaurant (first was in Los Angeles and it was amazing) and I can say this was definitely comparable to the first. Here they start you off with a warm towel so you can wash your hands which is perfect because I always go to the bathroom to wash my hands whenever we go out to eat. We ordered 5 hand roll set and 3 hand roll set they were very good prices. Our favorites was spicy tuna, blue crab, and soft shell handroll. BIG SHOUTOUT to the head chef Man he was so nice. They have happy hour from 3-6 everyday. Half off drinks and cheap apps! If you like sushi or Japanese food. Definitely come here!! read more

I've been waiting years for Houston to have its own restaurant dedicated to handrolls, so when I found out Hando was opening, you bet I was excited to give it a try. Hando is a small & minimalistic restaurant with all its seats built around the chefs, creating a handroll bar. It seats about 20? 25? people, creating an intimate environment. I don't believe they take reservations, so for a larger party, I'd encourage you to come a little earlier, around 6 or 6:30, to get seated without too long of a wait. Service here is absolutely wonderful, from the host to the chefs, everyone is so nice and welcoming. I've dined here twice already & most recently I was pleasantly surprised with how the host handled a situation: A large party came in, and with the way we were seated, we would have to move down two seats to fit them in. Instead of just asking if we would move, the host prefaced the request by offering to treat us to either drinks or handrolls if we'd please help this party out. It was thoughtful and I appreciated how considerate he was, even if the move wasn't drastic. As for food, I always get the 5 handroll set because your girl has an appetite. I love almost every roll within this set, except for the shrimp katsu (fried shrimp). It's still good but I much prefer the toro, yellowtail, scallop, and blue crab. To top it all off, I always order the lobster a la carte because 6 is just the perfect amount for dinner. One tiny thing is my two dining experiences here have been slightly inconsistent. The first time I came in, the chef offered us this unique bite of cake to end our meal and she mentioned it was a part of our 5 handroll set. The most recent time I came in, this wasn't offered at the end of the meal, even though we ordered the same thing, and I kinda hyped it up for the person I was dining with before they were met with disappointment. Not sure which one is the expected experience. Nonetheless, love this place and I can't wait to come back! read more

Visited for dinner for the first time on a weekday and it was a very positive dining experience. A quaint and intimate spot to get fresh fish and delicious cocktails. The service is very friendly/attentive and the food comes out very quickly. We ordered (a lot): for starters the chips and dip, wagyu gyoza, and Brussels sprouts. For entrees: the toro, salmon, shrimp katsu, yellowtail, lobster, musubi and spicy tuna. The toro was a little disappointing because I was anticipating a fresh and fatty fish but wasn't as tasty as I was expecting. My favorites were the lobster, katsu and musubi! For cocktails I recommend the gin-za fizz and audacity-- Both so refreshing and boozy. I'm not too sure about COVID standards currently but we had a couple seated right next to us so there wasn't really distancing assigned. All in all a great place to dine and I can't wait to dine/order again!! read more

the ambiance in here is so intimate and romantic, it's a dimly lit island facing the chefs. we came here on a saturday night without reservation and we're seated quickly. the menu is easy to understand: they serve hand roll sets in 3,4,5 and individual hand rolls / appetizers for purchase. we got the 5 set which included spicy salmon, fried oyster, shrimp katsu, blue crab - i added on the soft shell crab. i loved the fried food in the hand rolls because of the good crunch, balance of heat, and just overall satisfying tastes. the soft shell crab was my favorite, followed by the fried oyster. we also got some beef skewers and they were delicious. the price for the hand rolls are all under $10 and i can get full from 3-5 hand rolls. as a nice intimate dinner, this place was it! read more

Hando - Sushi Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

My friend and I wanted to try out this sushi restaurant in Heights area. It's a really small sushi bar place not a typical sushi restaurant. We were very disappointed it. The sushi hand roll was so small and expensive. $5 for a small hand roll look like a tiny eggroll. Their sushi were not good at all. $4 for a tiny salty miso soup without any tofu inside the soup. People who gave this place a great reviews either from their friends or family members. Their green tea was not even green tea. read more

This place is nice with good parking spaces for customers. Food quality is great but would not say awesome. However, the price point is considered very high compared to other sushi restaurant options. We ordered the set of 5 handrolls for $25 each set, with 2 appetizers and a drink, total bill was $110+. This is more of a fine dinning price point given the fact the portions are very small. read more

I went when this place first opened up and it was really good, I would say 8.7/10, but I went back recently and was very disappointed. When they first opened the rolls seemed to be made with care and very high end for hand rolls. You could taste the ingredients and everything felt top notch. On my most recent encounter it seems like they were just turning out the rolls as fast as they could and did not care much about the taste. Very noticeable decline in the taste of the rolls as well. For the price of the rolls I definitely expect more. I would go back to give them another try, but for now it's a 4/10. read more

Ordered some takeout while visiting family in Houston. The construction of the rolls was good, but the fish didn't taste very fresh. The crab roll was overwhelming with scallions, and with how small the rolls are it was disappointing. I'm sure this sushi meets many people's expectations, but I don't plan to order out or dine in again. read more

The only reason I'm giving this place a four and not a five star review is because of the price. But then it's acceptable cos the quality of every single ingredient was so fresh.

This place is great! I learned about their three cut roll set for $20 and thought having good sushi at that price would be too good to be true. I tried two other tolls--the enoki mushroom and yellowtail rolls--as well as the Brussels sprouts on the side. I got it all for takeout as per COVID protocol and was really happy with the experience. The Brussels sprouts were very savory and flaky. The yellowtail roll was excellent, as was the mushroom roll...I don't normally order veggie sushi rolls but this one was not your typical veggie roll; it was quite flavorful and delicious! The three-cut-roll set might at first look to you like a small amount of food but it's quite satisfying. Still, I'd recommend ordering a side dish with it as the rolls are smaller than you'd see in pictures! I'd like to return to Hando to try some of their other rolls and specials. When going for takeout I liked the trendy atmosphere so someday I'd also like to try dine-in as well. Parking situation: on-site read more

This place has delicious, simple, traditional hand rolls. The flavors are clean and fresh. They have two chefs rolling the hand rolls for the entire restaurant (right in front of you), and they'll place your handroll on your tray for you to eat. But because of that, the pacing can be a bit slow depending on your chef. They also have two other waiters attending to your drink order. There's an area where you wait in line; I don't think they take reservations. It'd be best to come with fewer people (no more than 4), or be ok with splitting the group. There's a small parking lot out front. read more

Hando is the only restaurant at the shopping center. The place is pretty small with quick service. There is only bar seating with maybe only 25 seats. We ordered the miso soup, seaweed salad, 5 pcs rolls (Toro, Yellowtail, Scallops, Crab, and Shrimp Katsu), and the Musubi roll. The seaweed salad was good just not enough. Miso soup was average. The rolls were very fresh. Toro was my favorite. Overall very good only downside is if it gets busy. You will probably be waiting for a seat. read more

AMAAZZING handroll place that reminds me of a slightly larger, modern Japanese sushi restaurant. A very interesting concept that isn't relatively new in Japan but much needed in Houston Venue: Cozy, but clean modern venue with limited bar seating (no tables). Really good place to take a small group of friends but not a large party - very Japanese-esque. Hand rolls: a smaller selections of hand rolls but alll very delicious and fresh. I had the 5 rolls option and honestly after I was done I was ready to order another one on the spot because it was that good. IIm so glad they included Toro in the rolls , which was like food heaven. Service: Friendly, quick, and knowledgeable. What more can you ask for. Verdict: One of the best new restaurants in Houston with an upscale, but not over the top vibe - nice casual read more

I got the 4 piece handroll (because I wanted the salmon, which is not available in the 5piece), the mushroom handroll and the gyoza. The salmon and tuna hand rolls were incredible. The fried oyster was also unique and delicious. Would not get the gyoza again - it tasted a little flavorless inside, like ground beef. I was expecting the mushrooms to be cooked, and the raw mushrooms lacked a little in flavor. But overall highly recommend! Also the quiet storm cocktail was delicious! read more

My mom and I were really looking forward to trying this restaurant, we were told it was a 35 minute wait. We had no problem waiting, but when 45 minutes passed we went inside to check on how long it'd be, and they told us the wait time doubled and it'd be another 35. We understand that things happen, but we felt miffed that we didn't get any sort of notification of this change and essentially wasted our Friday night waiting for this. Also, noticing many others got sat, we felt slightly disrespected and forgotten considering their waitlist system is a piece of paper.We ended up leaving and might try again another time. I also recognize hosting on a Friday night is a hard job and accidents happen. Not a super great first experience though. #disappointed read more
