    Baked Lobster Tempura
    Andrew N.

    If you haven't been to Handroll Social yet, give this neighborhood sushi place a try. Handroll Social offers a great balance of quality sushi, welcoming warm ambiance and exceptional customer service in the greater Houston area, right here in Katy. From start to finish, everything was amazing: * Incredible Presentation & Flavor: The fish quality is very fresh. The infused truffle oil Hamachi Crudo/sashimi topped with orange citrus, sliced Serrano peppers, microgreens, and an edible flower was light, refreshing, and beautifully plated. * Creative Small Plates: The Baked Lobster Tempura was loaded with toppings, diced scallions, drizzled eel and spicy mayo sauce, and sesame seeds was the perfect balance of warm crunch, savory richness, and abundance of flavor. * Atmosphere & Service: The vibe is modern, sleek, and welcoming. The chefs and staff really pay attention to detail, making the entire dining experience feel special. Whether you're stopping in for a quick lunch or opting for a full sit-down dining experience, Handroll Social delivers. Will definitely return soon to try the other available menu items!

    This is a very different approach to serving sushi, but in its novelty is an absolute pleasure. Firstly, the ambience is quite interesting. The entire restaurant is one large sushi bar in a semicircle almost like a hibachi with the exception that the shafts rather than put on showmanship actually create works of art right in front of us. And the works of art are edible and just wonderfully edible. I had only three different plates, but all three of them of sashimi something called a credo and sushi were all beyond good. They were excellent. And may I add absolutely beautiful in their presentation. The service is phenomenal rather than give directions to the sushi Chef directly there's a server who circulates takes orders and do an absolutely masterful job of serving and from what I could ascertain preparing drinks. I had a Japanese old-fashioned, which had a Japanese whiskey and redemption rye, and that was equally excellent. My criticism, of course, and I would have to add one is that there was no luxardo Sheree, which is the signature for me of an old-fashioned, but I think that a minor distraction. The balance of the old-fashioned between the Japanese whiskey and the rye was phenomenal. I can't even begin to describe adequately. What a wonderful experience it is, and I would encourage anyone who enjoys sushi to a very least try it out. It's great value for the money. It's incredibly artistic and the food is just wonderful.

    The food was pretty decent for me and the flavor was on point, everything paired pretty well together. Each dish was beautifully presented. My friend and I tried the hamachi crudo, scallop crudo, and fatty tuna crisp. The service was great, everyone was friendly, attentive and made sure we were taken care of throughout our meal. I would definitely come back to try more dishes.

    Tried Handroll Social and got the 5 piece set with spicy yellowtail, salmon, spicy scallop, avocado, and fatty tuna. I also added the foie gras, unagi handroll, and baked lobster tempura. The 5 piece set was filling, but most of the handrolls had the stuffing falling out the other end when biting into them. Out of the set, the spicy scallop and fatty tuna were the best. The foie gras had the same issue where it fell apart, but the flavor was very good. The baked lobster tempura was a letdown. It felt too saucy and baked too long, so the meat came out dry. The unagi handroll had too much rice and not enough eel. Overall, it felt like they relied heavily on sauces, and most of the fish/meat was diced instead of standing out on its own. Some good flavors, but the texture and build of the handrolls could be better.

    The food here is elegant and delicious! The atmosphere is both intimate and communal, with either separate tables or seats up at the sushi bar where they prepare the food (kind of like a hibachi style eatery). You can have a conversation or watch the chefs at work. They place each roll in front of you as soon as it's made, so it paces your dining experience for you, if you'd like. We loved every item we selected! If we had room left, we could have ordered dessert. But that will have to wait until next time!

    I want to gate-keep this place so badly, but it just wouldn't be fair for everyone else in the area. We stumbled across this spot and decided to check it out for dinner. I'll start by saying the drinks are phenomenal. Every single drink we ordered was great! Like, cocktail bar high quality. Service was great too. We had our baby with us and all the waiters would smile and play with her in between serving rolls. The food was amazing. We will 100% be back.

    Great vibes!! The atmosphere, service, and drinks were top tier! I'm still dreaming of the fatty tuna crudo! Perfect mix of spice, crunch, and citrus on top of a melt in your mouth tuna bite. I highly recommend! I definitely would come again, 10/10!

    Wow, one of the creamiest hand rolls I've ever had! There's something about the handle that made us so creamy part of having avocado inside. The Crudo here had an interesting take since I had a more solid sauce/paste to it. Overall, I highly recommend and would come back.

    So happy they finally opened a sushi handroll in Katy!! Now I do not have to drive 45min+ to satisfy my craving. The biggest surprise was the yellow tail roll. Usually yellow tail is just a filler choice for me, something I will eat if it's part of a bundle. This was the first time actually enjoying it enough that I would order it al la carte. The fish tastes incredibly fresh, and the staff are wonderful. My only gripe is that some of the rolls could have a much better rice-to-fish ratio.

    Wow how lucky are we to finally get a hand roll place in Katy. The whole experience was a vibe. Thank you to the friendly staff for a delicious meal and drinks! Can't wait to come back for their social hour!!

    A hidden gem! I actually like the fact that it's not located in La Centera because parking is better. Anyway, we were greeted and seated promptly. Be sure to try the original cocktails. Service was prompt and our sushi was prepared on the cutting board in front of us. A wonderful personal experience. Quiet ambiance. Cozy and first class. Loved it!

    Great place. Great food quality and flavor on baked chicken peri / peri style…read more Peri-peri chicken is chicken marinated or coated in a spicy, tangy chili sauce, then usually grilled or roasted. These folks have multiple flavor profile and sides. Very clean attentive staff. Will be back!

    The food here is absolutely delicious, and the customer service is great! I've been here twice now,…read moreand both times the food has been amazing. I would definitely come back for the food and the service. However, I do have one concern that I really hope the restaurant will consider. I wish they had separate restrooms for men and women instead of having unisex restrooms. The first time I went to the restroom, there was a guy literally getting out of the restroom. When I went inside, the toilet had urine all over it. I didn't want to clean someone else's mess, so I went to the second restroom. Literally, there was another guy getting out of that restroom too, and when I went inside, he hadn't even flushed the toilet. So I had to go back to the first restroom, clean the toilet myself so I could use it, and then go back to my food. Honestly, it was very unpleasant and disturbing, and I felt nauseous afterward. I understand that restroom cleanliness depends on the people using them, but I really wish they would consider having one restroom for women and one for men. It would make the experience much more comfortable and hygienic for everyone. The food and customer service are wonderful, and I truly hope they address this issue because I would love to continue coming back.

    First time to visit Local Spot since we were in the area. Have visited their sister locations…read morenumerous times so we knew we'd be getting a great meal. The place seems to be in a community center so the area is beautiful to sit outside or walk around after your meal. The menu seems smaller but still has lots of great options.

    Local Table was one of those places that looked more impressive than the actual experience ended up…read morebeing. We were in Fulshear and wanted to try something different that we don't have near us, so we decided to give it a shot. The restaurant itself is beautiful on the outside with an inside that has a modern, open design. You come in and seat yourself, and while there were several tables available, the restaurant definitely wasn't empty. There were people dining in the back room and out on the porch. It was a gorgeous day, but we opted for the AC. Service wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't especially attentive. It took a while for someone to come by with menus, and throughout the meal things just seemed to move slowly despite the restaurant not appearing understaffed. I don't mind a relaxed pace, but I also don't want to spend my entire afternoon sitting indoors at some random restaurant waiting around. We started with chips and queso. The chips were decent, but the queso was extremely thin and soupy--more like cheese soup than queso--thus definitely not worth the $10 price tag. Unless you love soupy queso. Then maybe it's definitely worth the $10 to you. For lunch, my brother and mom ordered The Local Burger with Fries and added avocado, my friend ordered the Beef Tenderloin Steak Wrap with Chips, and I tried the Spicy Buffalo Pizza because honestly, every menu starts looking the same after a while, and I wanted something different. Unfortunately, there were several issues with our order. Everyone's food arrived but my brother's because our server somehow assumed mom and he were sharing one burger since they ordered the same thing. They also forgot the avocado add-on for both burgers. Mom gave my brother her basket, and they shared the burger until his came, which was about 10 to 15 minutes later. Mom liked the fries because they came out hot and weren't overly salted, but neither she nor my brother really raved about the burgers. I think by then they forgot they asked for avocado, and we weren't charged for it, but that's kind of annoying to ask for something and nothing is said...they just quietly make sure not to charge you for it. The Spicy Buffalo Pizza was probably the biggest disappointment for me. I expected a more traditional buffalo chicken pizza, but instead it was kind of a layered, heavily drizzled mess that didn't really work together. The crust also appeared to be some sort of cornmeal-style crust that wasn't my favorite and didn't hold up well under the weight of the toppings. It was the kind of slice you knew would end up on you rather than in you, so I was really careful to make sure it hit the pizza board and not me. I ended up boxing most of it for my housemate. Mark wanted dessert, and they have something called "The Spot Ice Cream Sandwich," which is a brownie or assorted cookie with vanilla ice cream and toppings. Mom asked whether he could simply order the brownie by itself, and our server Victor said he would ask, but we never actually got an answer. One thing that really annoys me at restaurants is charging $4 for fountain drinks and then not keeping them refilled. Victor did eventually ask about refills, but by then the meal was basically over. Overall, this place wasn't bad, but it also wasn't great. The atmosphere and design are probably the strongest part of the experience. I wouldn't necessarily avoid it, but I also wouldn't go out of my way to come back. What made lunch even funnier is that next door at Cross Creek Ranch, there's a hanging sign advertising an "observation deck." We had debated going before lunch but decided to eat first and then check it out afterward. Much like the restaurant itself, the concept sounded far more impressive than the actual experience. There really wasn't much to observe. I just found it amusing that both experiences ended up being equally mediocre.

The wait time was as expected for that amount of people to come in. I had the fire roasted salmon and I loved it. It was a great contrast of differing textures and flavors. It was a lot better than I expected. The portion for me was perfect, I was full and satisfied by the end of it. They do an excellent job in trying to accommodate everyone and they made an effort to regularly check in. This place has that woody, western vibe to it.

    The evening started out great, but quickly went downhill. Our server, Lexus was polite, friendly,…read morehelpful, energetic and very pleasant. She took our drink orders, food orders and then everything seemed to fall apart. She returned several times, but mentioned that she was tied up handling several large drink orders and that was the last we saw of her. The food was delivered by other servers. As you can see, the fried catfish fillets were burnt on the outside, but the fish was undercooked inside and had raw (uncooked) portions inside. Not a pleasant surprise. We later learned that Lexus had left for the day and we were left on our own, so to speak. No drink refills for the nearly three hours we were there. Finally, we had to get up and find someone to help us and get our checks. When I was able to pay I requested a receipt, which I never received. Lastly, when we were leaving, someone was mopping the walkway and left puddles of water in the walk, which posed a slip hazard for our group of elderly individuals. When we told a server about the water in the walkway, she told us that she knew it was wet, because she just mopped it. Not an answer you want to hear. All in all, a very unimpressive experience.
