First time coming here, and definitely not my last! Walked in and was immediately greeted with the best hospitality out there. Our server, Josh, made this place feel comfy and like home. Sitting in front of the sushi bar was also comforting. The food was amazing as well. 10/10 would recommend and bring friends! read more

Def would recommend this place. Nice fusion restaurant and the inside is quaint and cozy. They have a few seats that are swing benches and if I had a plus one would have totally snagged one. Sat at the sushi bar and for a Thursday night was pretty quiet. There were four chefs and sitting at the sushi bar you got to see the goodies as they were made. Austyn was the person who took care of me and they were wonderful. Very polite and provided great recommendations for the night. Got the sake flight and all three I'd get again. Started with the Barbacoa dumplings....ummmm amazing, soooo flavorful. Next up was the Brussels sprouts and y'all those left with the bowl empty. The only rec I gave Austyn was to tell peeps to stir them to get all the sauce goodness mixed in. Didn't realize there was a sauce until the end soooo that would have probably made me lick the bowl! Also got the Toro fig and I'm not gonna lie I was shocked. Never thought pairing fig with tuna would be good, again rec I gave was to give a spoon so you could sip all that sauce goodness!!! Last on my dining journey was the Prime Market Nigiri Moriawase. This was the chefs choice of five nigiri pieces and they again were delicious. The downside was the omakase was for 2 people, portion size sooo I need to find a plus one, any takers?! I'd go back to try other items and get a few of the same. read more

Food: My partner and I shared some Brussels Sprouts, a Robot Ramen, and a Pork Chashu Fried Rice. The Brussels Sprouts were fine--the marinade was nice, but would have preferred the sprouts to be a bit crispier. The Robot Ramen was light, yet rich, the meat was succulent (and not too thin, at the risk of being dry) and the noodles were al dente--both were cooked nicely. Lastly, the Pork Chashu Fried Rice was a burst of umami flavor, from the shoyu glazed pork rib to the shiitake mushroom lying underneath. Solid dish--no notes! Service: No complaints! We had a reservation and were seated immediately upon walking in. Our waiter was attentive. Ambiance: Casual, modern. A vibrant experience, to say the least, from the flora draping from the ceiling, to the warm colors permeating throughout. Parking: Street parking available. Pay note of parking signs! read more

Joshua was one of the best servers I've ever had! He made the whole dinner so fun and enjoyable. Came for happy hour but ordered some main menu items too. Really enjoyed the Pom mule drink on happy hour. The cucumber refresher was a little too sweet for me. The spinach dumplings and barbacoa dumplings were both great! Loved the sauces that came with both. Chicken karaage was what you'd expect, would probably try something else next time just to try something new. The hira hira roll was really good! The way they presented the sauces made it slightly hard to dip your roll in it, but would still order again. My friends loved the transformer roll. Yuka-tekkan was a let down for me, just not very flavorful. Overall, would definitely come back for some rolls and the happy hour! There is better sushi on s congress but I still think this is a solid choice. Inside has really cool decor and would be a good place to bring someone to impress a date. read more

Lucky Robot Restaurant - Menu - Sushi Bars Near Me - Austin, Texas

Came here for a cute dinner before seeing an evening theatre show. It was pretty packed, so we decided to sit outside. I was honestly pleasantly surprised with the place. The service was quick, attentive, and they were super friendly. I can't recall exactly what I ordered, but they're pictured below. It's clear that this is an Asian fusion restaurant catered to a fancier audience. They blended some untraditional flavors and ingredients in their rolls. However, I was shocked to say that it worked pretty well. Flavors were balanced, beautifully plated, and everything was fresh and quick. The only downsides are the price and the portions. This place is pretty pricey for the amount you get. But if you want a cute date night, this is the place. The dessert is to die for. I'd come back just for the dessert alone. read more

This is a pretty solid spot to grab Japanese/fusion type of food! We came around 11 am and had access to their brunch menu. FAVORITE ITEMS: - Bees Knees: a tad on the sweet side, if you ask for slightly less sweet, maybe it'd taste even better? It has a nice lavender flavor which really is so aromatic and delightful. I recommend this for sure! - Brussel Sprouts: sauce was really good, crispy exterior and flavorful. Def recommend this - Chirashi Bot: I got the fancier version which the chef chooses for you which cuts of fish, depending on what is available. The sushi rice with sesame seeds were really tasty, I would say you get a decent amount of fish but there is a lot of avocado. It's decent, fish was fresh. PARKING: pretty easy street parking nearby SERVICE: it took a while for the chirashi bowls to come out but the other food came out decently fast. PRICE: a bit on the pricey side, but the aesthetic inside makes it pretty cool. Overall, I'd prob recommend to folks who are coming by to try some spots in Austin! It's a cool concept and the food was solid. They also have a great music playlist! read more

Okay ambiance is very eclectic. It's giving daft punk with cherry blossoms sprinkled all over. We got the shittake and spinach dumplings, eggplant bao, dill-e sushi and robot ramen. The dumplings were so crisp and flavorful, and sat on a bed of some creamy sauce. As for the eggplant bao, it was fluffy and was equal parts tangy and hearty. The robot ramen broth was very flavorful and done so well! As for the dill-e, it's very interesting. It was a hot, fried sushi that sat on top of shishito aioli. I personally was not the biggest fan but it's an interesting dish. Expected better service for the price we paid but there was nothing glaringly wrong with it. Super cute spot for a date night/special occasion! read more

Stopped by for happy hour and ordered a couple of items We tried the seasonal mule and whiskey spritz - both pretty good and $9 Tried the wagyu hot rock - pretty good for happy hour $9 and def add the salt for some extra flavor Tried the salmon, tuna, striped bass and yellowtail nigiri - all good but tuna and salmon were the best!! Tried the chicken karaage and chicken itself was good but didn't love the green sauce but my husband did Interior is so cute with the cherry blossoms They have some outdoor seating but can be busy crosswalk and traffic area Although they are dog friendly in the outdoor seating read more

This place is it! Came here because my sister in law wanted to try it out and I'm glad she did! But be prepared to have your wallet be set backkkkkk lol- don't say I didn't warn you! Ambiance is really nice here especially for a date night type of place. I have 3 kids- so that's not always the best option. But the lighting is nice and dim! We found parking right along the curbside in front of the restaurant fairly easy before the dinner rush crowd showed up. Wagyu hot rock, is the way to go! My girls 7 & 4, (6&3) at the time of our visit loved it- so flavorful with just a pinch of salt, but it's definitely melt in your mouth delicious! My kids are picky and they even loved the chicken karaage & pork belly bao buns. Everything was just so tasty- go and check out the happy hour menu to save you some coin! Even my yuzu spritzer was nice and refreshing! read more

Lucky Robot is a popular sushi spot right on South Congress, so it naturally attracts plenty of foot traffic and a wide range of diners. Your experience will probably depend on what kind of sushi you prefer--more traditional and authentic, or casual and Westernized. Lucky Robot definitely leans toward the latter, with creative rolls and a more modern approach. At regular price, it can feel a little expensive for what you're getting, especially if you tend to prefer more traditional sushi. That said, their happy hour is fantastic and makes the experience much more enjoyable at a better price point. Overall, it's a fun, approachable spot for casual sushi and drinks, especially during happy hour, as long as you go in knowing what style of sushi to expect. read more

This sushi spot on SoCo is a gem! They have some fun fusion offerings including the Yuca-Tekkan, a maki roll with pepitas and recado negro. I appreciated that they had plenty of seafood and vegetarian offerings. My favorite dish was the spinach and shittake dumplings with cashews and a cashew cream. They were so delicious, I was scraping the cream off the plate! Our server Josh was top notch and knew his stuff well. The restaurant also has beautiful decor; I loved the cherry blossoms! read more

Came here during restaurant week and loved it! So much food and so much variety for such a good price! They had a prefix menu so it took all the guess work out for me and my friend, kinda like an omakase or chefs choice experience! My favorite was the yellow tail, so fresh and so flavorful! We sat outside on congress which was nice because the weather is just getting good and it was still light and lively out. Also our waitress was so sweet to us and gave great drink recommendations! read more

Really love this cute Japanese restaurant. I love how you can see the fish drying in the refrigerator when you meet with the host. The food was amazing. I wasn't a big fan of the tonkatsu ramen, but the chicken ramen was rich with flavor. The appetizers were great. I love the sauces that come with them especially the chicken katsu. Our server was kind and friendly. Definitely check this place out if you're nearby. read more

Really cute little spot with a fun vibe, but it definitely has a few quirks. They describe themselves as Japanese with a bit of Peruvian fusion, and honestly, the fusion dishes were some of the highlights. Those had great flavor and felt more intentional. We tried the R2D2 roll (Wagyu, crispy shallot, huancaina), and while the concept sounded amazing, it didn't quite deliver. The flavors were a lot flatter than I expected given the ingredients. They also talked up their dry-aged fish, which I was excited about, but I couldn't really tell a noticeable difference in the nigiri. The sushi rice itself was also more muted than I'd expect from a place like this. That said, the standout for me was the chiki toro nigiri. It's bigeye tuna topped with house-cured pork lardo and green onion, and it ends up being this really rich, buttery bite that actually delivers on flavor in a way some of the other sushi didn't. Service-wise, they were friendly, but there were a couple of misses. We were told the nigiri already comes with wasabi, so we asked for it to be omitted for my daughter's order. It ended up being removed from all of our nigiri instead, which wasn't a huge deal but felt a bit sloppy. A couple things to know if you're going in: they don't have sodas, and there's no kid's menu. That said, they were very accommodating and offered to make simple options like plain karaage or ramen with just meat and noodles, which I appreciated. Overall, it's a cute place with some solid dishes, especially on the fusion side, but a few things didn't quite live up to the hype for me. A few standout bites, a few misses, and just enough charm to make you consider giving it another shot. read more

I have eaten here a couple of times and it was fantastic!! The dry aged tuna melts in your mouth like butter! They offer seating outside as well. It's not very large so sometimes there is a wait. Service was great..our server was able to suggest a few things for us during the initial visit. Because they offer higher end, dry aged sushi, it is more expensive than your regular sushi spot. I think it's well worth the extra coins though! There's a cute ice cream stand nearby if you want a cool dessert after. read more

Perfect for a date night, the ambiance cannot be beat. It's dark and romantic but also stylish, with a huge artificial cherry blossom tree hung over most of the dining room. More importantly though, the food is fantastic, and all the vegan options (of which there are many) are thoughtfully crafted. The spinach and shiitake dumplings are a must-order, no matter what, but so is the sushi. The Farmbot 2.0 and Veggiepillar are the ones to get. Go during happy hour to take advantage of discounted pricing so you can try more dishes, tapas style. I haven't tried the cocktails but I do know they have a nice selection of sake, both high and low end, for all budgets. The biggest bummer for me is the parking. I know, it's Congress St; it's limited to non-existent. Plan on going during off hours, parking a ways away and walking, or take a ride share. read more

It's wooden, with pink neon on the shelving above the sushi bar, populated with figurines. Lucky Robot claims to serve sushi here. They also have ramen; maybe I should have tried my luck with that instead. Started with the Purple Peruvian drink, which was really quite nice. Actually, it was the highlight of the entire meal, so props to who ever made it. I felt lazy about going through every item on the menu, so I decided to order their "omakase." Huge mistake. Theirs is not a set menu, nor does it seem to be customized to customer's taste. Rather, it is a budget, which is filled using items from the menu until the desired price point is achieved. Before ordering, I specifically asked the waiter how the three different price points for their omakase work. I inquired how many pieces each one comes with. He provided an unsatisfactory "I don't know" and then proceeded to mention the more expensive ones had more courses (and gave a range of 10-13). He claimed to push people towards ordering the middle priced one, but did not provide an explanation for why. My expectation was a certain quantity of nigiri if ordering their "omakase." However, the waiter failed to clarify exactly what their "omakase" consists of, other than "the kitchen decides" (well, duh) and "it'll be a surprise." Withholding clarifying information about a menu option is a negative. We weren't too hungry, so we opted for the the lowest priced version. In response, he mumbled "this one would be 8 courses." Again, not forthcoming with information which he could have provided in response to my first question. After ordering, he asked "is there anything you won't eat?" Of course the answer is no. But looking back, I should have specifically mentioned "no artificial crab" or "no shoddy food." Lastly, he quipped, "and is sashimi ok?" To which I responded I prefer nigiri, to which he said "ok"--yet another missed opportunity to clarify that nigiri is a teeny-weeny part of their "omakase." As for the shoddy omakase: Brussel Sprouts ($12)--over-roasted to remove the nuttiness, and then doused in tamari. I've rarely had well-prepared brussel sprouts at restaurants, and Lucky Robot is no exception. Disappointing start. Sakura Masu ($24)--a shoddy crude containing ocean trout, blood orange, fennel, pomegranate, and cilantro. Masked the light trout flavor. Sourness was extremely minute. Nothing in this dish went well together, since everything tasted like flavorless blood orange (even the fish); and not even sweet. Their fennel slivers were not bright and refreshing; on the contrary, they seemed pickled, sad, and depressing. Hira Hira ($16)--poorly executed maki containing yellowtail, avocado, green onion, crispy shallot, yuzu miso, lemongrass soy, sesame. Excessive 3:1 rice to filling ratio. Tasted like creamy avocado. Cilantro did nothing, and a yellowed cilantro leaf was purposely selected. You can tell the kitchen does not even care to utilize green herbs. "Prime" Nigiri Moriawase ($37x2)--dry-aged fish. 5 out of 8 fish on daily fish menu. You can see the fish hanging on display. Better than the maki, but, it was not very flavorful, despite their dry aging process. The garnishes did not promote the fishes. The bitter toasted sesame seeds were unhelpful (and shouldn't be bitter!). These were fairly sad, disappointing bites, especially if you know what well-executed nigiri with quality ingredients tastes like. Hiramasa Shrimp Battle ($24)--much better maki roll than the Hira Hira, as the rice to filling ratio was closer to 1:1. Crunchy bits add texture; the serrano slice on top adds a slight heat to the bite. Enjoyable. "Pork Belly" and "Wagyu Short Rib" Nigiri ($26)--pork belly: dry and chewy. Wagyu: it's a precooked slab that they store with their fish (since we see it at sitting at the sushi bar); when it's prepared, they cut some slices and toss it in the oven to warm up. Pity for folks consuming either of these two items, including myself. Strawberry Basil Ice Cream ($9) -- they stated this was a semifreddo; it was fairly sweet. It had "compressed" strawberries, and crushed pistachios. Texture wise, this was fine. I recommend going to Gelato Paradiso (across the street) afterwards for dessert instead of here. Conclusion: only the Peruvian drink and Hiramasa Shrimp Battle were enjoyable. 2 out of 9 items, or $32 out of $193--an abysmal 0.22 or 0.16 enjoyment rate, depending on the metric. An incredibly poor value. There is no reason to return to this establishment in the future; plenty of other sushi restaurants in Austin take pride in serving non-shoddy food to their customers. Finally, do you really want to eat at a place that roasts their sesame seeds bitter, overcooks their pork belly until dry and chewy, uses an inappropriate ratio of rice to filling in their maki, voluntarily places yellowing cilantro leaves on your food, cannot execute a reasonable crudo, and provides you with a disappointingly low quality sushi experience? read more

Finally tried out Lucky Robot on Soco. The decor is super loud and extravagant but it kinda worked for me. I loved the violent cherry blossom vibe. On to the food, I got the chirashi bot and at $28 for fresh sashimi, it was really good. The fish tasted clean and refreshing and the soft poached egg on the rice with caviar added a nice umami depth to every bite. I very much enjoyed this brunch and would come back to try their other bites. read more

Lucky Robot is an incredibly cute small sushi restaurant located along the Congress Avenue street. I'm getting lucky robots for stars only because of how well they nail the Aesthetics down from the entire restaurant, down to the decor, seating, props, and plating. It might at first seem to be a small establishment but once inside, it's a lot more spacious than it otherwise seems from the outside. The space is very well decorated from head to toe. We love the Aesthetics. It's a modern take on traditional wood-based decor. It's lovely, perky, and fun. However, on the side of their food, it's a bit overrated. The server had hyped us about one of their High specialty dishes; aged tuna sashimi. It is extremely well plated. However, it doesn't taste much different than regular fresh tuna Sashimi in most other sushi restaurants that achieve a similar flavor level. I will give them props on the tuna because it did not have the lactic acid flavor that would have been indicative of poor quality tuna. But what makes their aging process more unique than leaving the fish in the refrigerator for a longer period of time? I don't know. It seems like the staff didn't really know either when we asked further, despite it being a dish that was recommended by them. read more

Highly recommend making a reservation--parking is tough and the space is small but has a funky, cute vibe with cherry blossoms hanging from the ceiling. Try to go during happy hour if you can (I accidentally booked on a weekend). The Hiramasa Serrano was light and refreshing, but the portion was tiny for the price. The sushi was overpriced, not very creative, and a bit bland. Cocktails were average, so try their whiskey selections for a better experience, and the service was just okay. Overall, more style than substance. read more

Food: 5/5 Value: 4/5 Vibe: 5/5 Parking: 3/5 How did I wait this long? Random thursday, booked a swing seat (confused by this when I saw it), my husband matches the whole restaurant flower theme without seeing what it ever looked like. It was a fun experience all around! We did omakase for $250 for 2 people. It was perfect. We were hungry before coming but we were surprisingly filled to the brim with 10 courses. They have tiered price omakase: $150/250/350 it allowed you to have more courses. It was my first true omakase where our server fully curated our courses based on our preferences. It was perfect!! Bonus: - it's so fun and cutesey inside - on soco Recs: - (my personal fave) porkbelly with the plantain. Nicely charred, salty and sweet - wagyu hotplate (insane cut and cooking xp) - sakura with blood orange & pomegranate (best flavor surprise we both loved) - omakase if you can to try more things on the menu since each dish can be a bit pricey on its own - best nigiris: toro, cod read more

Great lively ambience off of Congress Avenue in SoCo. Highly recommend ramen noodles. Fresh and flavorful. The nigiri was delicious. The only downside was the limited sushi selection -- no ika, no escolar, and no salads on the menu. 5- Stars for our server Josh was outstanding: attentive, friendly, and made the entire experience smoother and more enjoyable.

Chef's tasting? Yes, please. I don't eat sushi on the regular, but this experience had me rethinking everything. I went with the 5-course chef's tasting and it did not miss--not one bite. It's the chef's choice, so just sit back and let them show off. I'm not even going to try to name each thing (check the menu if you're curious), but every dish was beautiful, flavorful, and fun. The vibe inside? Straight-up cool. Colorful, welcoming, and buzzing without being chaotic. You feel like you've been transported somewhere--Tokyo street-style meets Austin chill. Now let's talk drinks: I had the Seasonal Mule--vodka, peach, lemon, ginger beer. Dangerous in the best way. Refreshing, bright, and a little sassy. Also, the happy hour menu is lookin' real right.

I've visited Lucky Robot a couple times and the sushi is always good! I would say it is as good as many of the other sushi spots in Austin. It is a bit pricey, but it is a fun experience.

It is not bad though. Just not outstanding. The ambiance and vibes are good though! read more

My husband recently booked a dinner reservation at Lucky Robot for my birthday. It has been awhile since I've been there and I'm happy to report that the food is still delicious and fresh! Since it is restaurant week in Austin, I got the tasting menu and for the most part everything was delicious. The Sakura stole the show though! The trout was so fresh, the flavors unique and worked perfectly together. Tender, buttery trout, sweet and acidic flavors of the blood orange and pomegranate. I could eat this all day! For my second course, I got the Barbacoa Dumplings. It tasted okay, but the barbacoa could have definitely used more flavor. Luckily, it came with ample mango chipotle sauce to dip the "dumpling" in, but honestly, this was more of an empanada. For my 3rd course, I got the Sushi Moriwase. Everything was of course fresh and delicious and I could probably have had 3 servings of this. For my final course, I got the Pork Belly Kakuni. This was probably the least favorite of my courses because I did not like the Peruvian Pico de Gallo. There was a lot of crunch to it and it did not go well with the rest of the dish, for my palette. Nonetheless, this was the perfect date night for my hubby and I and a great birthday celebration. I would definitely be back and I'm very interested in trying their weekend Tokyo brunch. read more
