Came here for lunch and it wasn't super busy but I'm sure it's like that for most places now. It was very clean and everyone had masks on so that's always a plus! Was greeted quickly and sat down promptly. Lunch menu was great and had a great mix of sushi with Korean food. My wife got the sushi lunch and I got a dolsot bibimbap and it was delicious (not the best one in Austin but I would say second best) Overall it was really great and the service was solid Wife enjoyed the sushi so that's the most important thing read more

Great food. Small place. Friendly staff. Our family ordered the Miso sushi sashimi combination, spicy tofu soup, eel rice, kalbi. Delicious. The sashimi cuts are excellent. A definite must visit when craving Japanese- Korean food. read more

Miso - Miso Combo - Japanese Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

I eat here often and I like it HOWEVER I don't want my servers to be sitting down having a meal while serving my lunch. He eats something then gets up and grabs someone's food to serve to them (including mine) and that GROSSES ME OUT! That is ridiculous and perhaps against health code. Wash your damn hands after you eat and BEFORE you serve my food! Probably a teenager but .... Ugh!!!!! read more

This place is absolutely fantastic. Came here on accident thinking it was some other restaurant that someone recommended, but ended up staying because we were too hungry to move. The inside has a rather nice ambiance and calming decor. Of course, I didn't pay too much attention to that in my current state of hunger. There was one person who was doing everything short of cooking, including cleaning and orders, so he was scrambling everywhere but surprisingly did a good job. The food was very satisfying. I had the spicy tofu soup, which on the menu was only offered in a seafood version, but I asked the waiter to switch it out with beef (which they said was fine). The taste was spicy (of course) but still flavorful. There were plenty of sides served as well. I had a taste of other dishes such as the katsu and the bibimbap, and both were pretty good as well. Overall solid Korean food. read more

we really like this place until recently. 2 out of 3 times of pick up order: There is no brisket in the brisket soup twice. The first time I didnMt call back and asked for a refund. I know it is difficult period for small business during the COVID 19. But I cannot Accept this happen again. Please double check your order if you are also ordering pickup/deliver from this place read more

Had dinner here for the first time last night and I was impressed. Now that I know how good it is I don't think I will miss Rosie's Pho (which used to occupy this space) as much. It's a little expensive, but the food and service is good enough that we will be returning. The miso soup was great and for such a simple soup I was surprised how much better theirs is than other places. I guess it should be great though, given the name of the restaurant. However, $2.50 for a small bowl (a la carte price) is a little too much. The Ahi Tuna Tower was good too, but the best dish of the night was the Grilled Mackerel. My girlfriend and I both love mackerel and this was easily the best we've ever had. It was grilled to perfection and easy to eat. Sometimes there are a lot of small bones in mackerel that are difficult to remove or eat around, but not with the piece that we were served. I will definitely order this again. The restaurant and bathrooms are clean. I wouldn't call it upscale, but they definitely made some improvements since Rosie's Pho left the space. The design is more modern and the music was good too, just the right volume. Because the place is called Miso I think it would be cool if they made the Miso soup complimentary, or at least reduced the price to something more reasonable. read more

This review is for takeout of seafood cheese ddeokbokki. Terribly disappointed. Very, very little seafood. No squid. Mostly just fish cakes. No sides. Small styrofoam container in a paper bag for 15 bucks. What a waste. read more

Miso - Japanese Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Great experience. A little confused about the name until I read why they chose the name on their menu. Mind boggled! I am a sucker for bulgogi and totally rate a restaurant by that, but.....The SQUID DISH CAUGHT MY EYE!!! I just could not take my eyes off the idea and my belly shouted, "you must try!!!" I ordered it. My expectations were exceeded and I had no choice, but to finish this deliciously savory dish. My family loved their dish as well. We would definitely come back and try something else. My brother, who is a chef. Did not say a word....hint that he likes it. He usually starts tearing the dish apart. Must try for sure! He is nota picky eater, more particular. He can enjoy fast food and other stuff, but always has to critique the texture, flavors, aroma, et al. The parking lot is large and we did not have to wait on the weekend. Hint: we did go later. From a 24hour city, it's technically early on a weekend. Forget sometimes, places close early in cities outside Nevada. Okay not all towns in our state open late, but alcohol is sold during all hours of the day! The location is super sweet. Was different and felt private, but open. Made the space feel big. read more

I've been in the La Frontera area many times throughout the years and I just recently found out about this place! My sister and I came in around noon on a Saturday and were promptly seated. The place had a traditional vibe, soothing classical background music, and an overall nice ambience. Instead of thinking with our brains, we thought with our stomaches and ended up over ordering. -Okonomiyaki @ $13: it was nice watching the bonito flakes flutter for a couple of seconds, but the taste was somewhat disappointing. The first bite started out alright; it tasted like takoyaki in pancake form, had nice crunch from the cabbage, the batter was light, and it had a nice mixture of shrimp and squid. As time went on, it just got saltier with every bite and I ended up downing a whole glass of water before the main dish even arrived. -Dosolt Bibimbap @ $12: the taste and presentation was pretty standard- rice in a hotstone topped with various assorted vegetables, meat, and a raw egg yolk. I'm a big fan of the crispy rice stuck on the bottom of the hotstone, so I usually let it sit for a bit. I felt like it was lacking some flavor and ended up drenching my bibimbap in quite a bit sauce. -Mandookook + Rice Cakes @ $12: the rice cakes were soft and mildly chewy, but somewhat bland. I really liked the pulled meat and meaty flavor from the dumplings, but the skin was so thin, it started falling apart. Would've been better during the winter instead of having it during the scorching Texas heat. The food choices here are pretty solid and it's one of the closer restaurants to my home. Will definitely come again. read more

My bestie introduced me to Miso and the only place I go for beef bulgogi! They serve on a sizzling hot plate (like fajitas) w/ white rice and various cold sides (my favorites are spicy cucumbers and kimchi). The bar area is closed for now but prior to you could sit and watch them make fresh sushi. It's always clean, servers are friendly and will recommend menu items based off your likes. I introduced my parents to bulgogi and we order online to be delivered. I've now tried the chicken and spicy pork bulgogi and I like them all. Miso is a definite must visit in Round Rock! read more

We did apocalypse delivery for our 15th anniversary. Miso combo is a decent deal at $55. We're both so full. It included sashimi and nigiri of chefs choice plus two rolls. Its was excellent! Wasabi and soy sauce was included which literally made it a full meal from a box. The quality of the fish was great. I'd say the only down side was some of our sashimi was cut very strangely which seems odd if they have professional sushi chefs. It was about .5 inches wide and had several deep cuts across the top. It was still super fresh and melt in your mouth though. We normally order from Miso but this is our first sushi experience from there. All in all I'm pleased. 9/10 will definitely be ordering again!! read more

I've had so many good experiences here both with their sushi rolls, the tuna tower, and their bulgogi. For a neighborhood place, everything's delicious! read more

This was the first Korean restaurant I tried after moving to Austin and have absolutely loved the food each time I went. I don't believe I have ever had a bad experience. It is a smaller restaurant so tables fill up quickly but the servers are always friendly. I usually get donkatsu or dolsot bibimbap. All the food I have tried tastes pretty close to authentic. Even though the restaurant is smaller, it feels comfortable and cozy. read more

Not sure why I haven't had too many people talk about this place. This is a low key good Korean and Sushi restaurant for sure. Aside from an odd dish like fajitas, I've never had anything from there that was bad. For lunch, they have a great Bento Box option. Uniquely, it comes with your choice of boiling hot Korean soup, miso soup, etc. banchan and a sizzling plate of chicken, beef, galbi, etc. I think here, Sugar Pine and Odaku would be my recommendations for lunch set in Austin. As for the sushi, we've had sashimi and the UN bunch of times and aside from the "fake" wasabi that most restaurants serve, it always comes fresh. If you usually get the Rainbow Roll, opt for the UN. It's an entirely upgraded version since there are three types and color roe. Kim Chi Bacon Fried Rice is the filler if you're concern about still being hungry after sushi. Because I love their Kim Chi (they're not as sour as the ones that come straight from a store-bought jar) I really like the acidity against the fattiness of the bacon - it tastes actually like well-flavored sliced pork shoulder/belly. Service can be a bit "slow" and I say it with quotations because, in most Korean restaurants, the culture is to simply flag down your waiter when you need something. Generally, the intent is to leave you alone as you eat. A cultural difference between Asian and American restaurants read more

We came back again during the holidays. The food was very delicious and on point. We got two adult meals and they let us split a kids meal since our kids don't each much at times. However one kids plate was enough for our two little ones. The staff here are always welcoming. They updated the place since our last visit. It's very elegant and modern inside. The restos are very clean. They have their sushi bar right as you walk into the restaurant. So not too bad of an idea so you can get a glance if you're interested in sushi. For me the the dinner serving was just right. They have my favorite cucumber kimchi! That is very delicious! The space is small inside so depending on when this place gets busy it might not be great for large groups. But I believe you can call in advance to reserve. read more

I shared a bossam ($22) with my boyfriend for lunch here. Meat was tender and juicy. It went really well with the kimchi that was served together. Service wasn't that great. I was surprised that there was only one waiter taking care of all of the tables at the restaurant. Sometimes, it was difficult to catch his attention throughout the meal because he would disappear into the kitchen. Restaurant itself is clean and tidy! Noise level is low. Overall, Miso has a pretty decent korean food; however, some entrées are overpriced. (A bowl of rice is $2. The server didn't tell me that it's an extra charge) read more

My gf and I stopped by today at 1:50. They have a lunch special which lasts till 2:00pm and they were still gracious enough to allow us to order off of it. The atmosphere of this restaurant was intimate and great for dates or just a casual meal. I ordered a lunch tray off of the lunch menu for $12 or so and it was a lot. I got a house salad, bibimbap w/pork, 4 sides, and a spicy tofu soup. The house salad was alright, But I didn't really care for it. Overall It was way more than I could finish but it sure was satisfying. All of the flavors were authentic Korean and i really liked the tofu soup. My gf ordered the sashimi inch which was 12pc assorted nigiri, 4 California, and 2 other sushi pieces, along with a house salad, and a miso soup. It was well portioned and great for lunch. Together it was less than $28 for both of us after tax and was well worth. Highly recommend this place. read more

Well, this was my second time to visit Miso. I remembered the service being terrible and the food being delicious so I gave it another try. The service is still terrible. It took forever to get a drink, our appetizer was wrong, and refills weren't a thing. I ordered chicken bulgogi but wasn't able to eat it. There was a roach that crawled from the wall onto our table. We weren't required to pay and there's no need to return. read more

Food was good but i got sick the day after eating sushi here. Fish was probably not fresh.

Love this little spot. Fresh and tasty! Never disappoints, and I started eating here to-go only at first because of the pandemic.

Came here for a late lunch (~3pm) on a Saturday afternoon. It was not busy at all and had 1 server on the floor. Pretty quiet restaurant and plays soft classical music in he background. Service: nothing to complain about. The server was prompt and made sure we had what we needed. Food: I ordered the Bossam, which is steamed pork, served with spicy pickles radish and steamed cabbage. Bossam is a popular Korean dish that pairs well with Soju, or any alcoholic beverage! The Bossam was soft and tender. I thoroughly enjoyed it and left me wanting more. Portion size is enough to serve 2, but might not fill you up. Overall: I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a nice quiet dining experience with quality food. They also serve sushi and teriyaki dishes. read more

A really great little Japanese place where I come for the Ramen. The staff and food are always good here, but my favorite Ramen meal is the spicy Nagasaki with seafood and noodles. They offer many traditional dishes here, but for my quick lunch or dinner bite, I really enjoy the ramen and you should try it as well. Clean place, lots of families come here, and you can see this place as a regular go-to place for family dinners; by the way I see the families come here. read more

Not my first time here and probably not my last. This place has both Japanese and Korean dishes so it has a lot of options for you and your family or friends! My friend and I came here for lunch, and she got the bibimbab while I got the salmon teriyaki bento box! She really enjoyed it and it was a pretty filling portion. My salmon was delicious with the sauce and the veggies that came with it, but the sushi was okay compared to other places. Overall, everything was pretty good and I will most likely be back! read more

Decided to give this place a try, since I was craving bulgogi. I had the spicy pork bento box, and everything was very tasty and fresh. It came with 2 pieces of nigiri, 4 slices of California roll, salad, kim chi, and miso soup. My only complaint was that the miso soup was scalding hot. Even after blowing the spoonful, that didn't help cool off the seaweed pieces! I'll just remember to let the soup cool a bit next time I come in. Service was attentive. read more

Very conveniently located if you live in the Round Rock area, as it's right off of I-35. My friend and I went for lunch, and I got the Dolsot Bibimbap with Kimchi Stew while she got the Sushi and Roll #2. Food came out very quickly, with both of us getting served a small but tasty salad first. The salad wasn't creamy, so it was nice and light before our main meals. The Dolsot Bibimbap came out sizzling, and the vegetables inside were very tasty. The side dishes that came with the meal were also very flavorful, so they disappeared quickly too. However, the kimchi stew was pretty disappointing, as the kimchi didn't seem to be of very good quality, and I think they skimped out on adding softer tofu/gochujang/doenjang/other flavorful ingredients, so it ended up just tasted sour. Portions as a whole were very big though. Overall, I'd come here again and try their sushi. Food was in nice portions, and the fish on my friend's sushi lunch looked fresh, fatty, and well sliced. read more

Miso - Un Roll - Japanese Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Confusing (but it works) menu full of Japanese and Korean items. They have lunch specials that feature bento boxes and Korean dishes. I guess it's a good place to bring people who want to eat different things. The Korean food was very good. Fresh and tasty banchan with potatoes, fish cakes, kimchi, marinated cucumbers, broccoli, and bean sprouts. Bossam $22 Beautiful spread. This dish is for sharing and comes with a large portion of pork belly, pickled radish, cabbage, and two pastes. Kimchi bacon fried rice $10.50 Fried rice with kimchi, bacon, and vegetables. Good, as expected. Salad bibimyun $12 Perfect cold dish. Cold soba noodles mixed with salad and gochujang paste. Mildly spicy, a little sweet. read more

This place needs a surprise health inspection. Went with my family and unfortunately my son needed to use the restroom so I took him and boy was that a mistake. Lost my appetite. Doors, walls and baseboards were filthy along with urine around the toilet that you can tell has been there a while. The floors throughout the whole restaurant were filthy. I can't imagine what the kitchen looks like. Food was very salty and greasy. I have no idea how this place stays in business. read more

Great food but service is very slow. On busy Friday evening, they only had two servers. Took a long while to order something to drink.. I would not recommend this place for a date night as many families with young kids comes here. At least three tables were putting some sort of kids show on their tablet/phone, for a small place, noise was very unpleasant. I will go back for food but will avoid weekend evenings. Price is reasonable for quality of food read more

Their lunch specials are a super good value! I ordered the bulgogi and spicy tofu stew combo which came with 4 small side dishes and a bowl of rice for $12! It's a Small plate of bulgogi and a Small bowl of stew, but all together really fills you up. The bulgogi was good but the stew was disappointing because there wasn't that much substance inside and was mostly liquid. Service was very attentive and very fast. I'll definitely come back here again to try out their other items on the menu. read more

I used to LOVEEE this place, it was my go to restaurant and I would eat here at least once a week. I enjoyed their bentos, mandoo and chicken teriyaki. The service ther was great, everyone was very nice but staff seemed a little over worked and understaffed but personally I didn't mind. I'm going to be honest I always look at Yelp before trying a restaurant just to see what the food looks like and see if there is any helpful information. I did see a few review about roaches but they seemed like they were from a while ago so I thought maybe it wasn't a problem in the restaurant anymore....NOPE... I was wrong. After a few months of going there on a regular basic I was sitting in one of the booths in the middle of eating my bento box . When my boyfriend sees a ROACH on the wall near the soy sauce. He picked is it up and throws it in a trash can without making a scene. I personally can't do bugs, but I avoided making a scene because we really did love this restaurant. After that we both just lost our appetite, and tried leaving as quickly as we could. When the waiter came to pick up our check we discreetly told her about the incident ( just so they knew, which they probably did but it could save a Karen from seeing it and yelling at them idk) , the waiter was very apologetic about the incident. I understand things happen and bugs are part of nature and get into restaurants, but seeing other reviews on this same problem makes me think of the sanitary measures this restaurant neglects to take . Regardless the sympathy we feel for this restaurant have not been there since. For a little background knowledge, as someone who works in the food industry I know that seeing bugs especially roaches is not normal and a very bad sign especially if you see a roach during the day. Cockroaches are nocturnal creature, seeing them at day time looking for food is a sign of an infestation. This restaurant is good, if you don't mind possibly getting a little extra protein in your food check this place out. If your hate bugs on the other hand or yk just want to make sure your food is sanitary don't go here, the food is amazing but the roach problem is concerning:( read more

Miso - This is very similar to what I saw in the restaurant except the roach was bigger - Japanese Near Me - Round Rock, Texas

Miso makes us happy. As our neighborhood favorite, it always seems to be the first place someone thinks of, or what we all immediately agree on. For us, its a Korean place in the greater Austin area that doesn't underwhelm. Some of the signature dishes are Texas-sized and typically we get our fill with leftovers. [What we consistently order/enjoy] 1.The pork katsu: that son of a monster is like chicken fried steak-sized with a good meat to breading ratio (pretty meaty). Took me forever and day to finish the first time. House salad always fresh. 2.Banchan (side dishes)- are ok. Really depends on what's the side of the day since they seem to switch a few options out. I don't believe I've ever seen the braised mackerel here, or my favorite Koreanized potato salad. The sides are so essential since they ARE the meal, rather as something additional. 3.Jap chae- usually we enjoy this as a side, but they offer it on the menu as a stand alone plate. Portions are a lot, and its pretty good. 4.Bibimbap- Delicious. Filling. Solid choice. 5.Sweet & Spicy chicken- the team likes this, but I think its fair. Its crispy, sweet/zesty, and can go great with lunch for work. [Extras] -The volcano roll is not bad at all! Gave me high hopes for the sushi here. -Been wanting to try the ramen...haven't got around to it. Same with the seafood pancake. -**The lunch special is such a great value. Highly recommend it. Aside from Miso, we heard an Hmart will open 2017 in North Austin (Cedar Park) by lakeline http://www.koreadaily.com/news/read.asp?art_id=4303968 This would change the game for a lot of things, but I can confidently say we'd still go out of our way for Miso. We believe in you. [What I would love to see/wishlist] -Koreanized pizza (KBBQ/bulgogi please) -Kimbap options -More Tofu soup options -Steamed egg/rolled omelette sides -*Cripsy Tteokbokki skewers. More options for rice cake skewers! read more

We couldn't decide if we wanted sushi or Mexican. My old lady has never had Korean and we had this spot bookmarked, let's do it!! Walking in it smelled a little funny, like old cleaning rags. It was completely empty, uh oh bad sign. We did arrive after lunch rush though. The atmosphere was nice though, modern and clean. We look over the menu and order seafood pancake to start, I advised I'm allergic to eggplant. She brings it out and says they didn't use egg, I told her egg was fine it's the plant one that kills me. lol, honest mistake, she took it back and they re cooked it with egg, man oh man!! Amazing way to start your meal. Highly recommend it. For main dish I got the spicy pork bulgogi and my wifey got the Hawaiian chicken. The pork is slammin, so flavorful and spicy. Comes with four side dishes, veggie pancake, spicy cucumber, fish cake, potato. Rice was also included and a miso soup. The miso was luke warm and so so. But the rest was awesome!! The Hawaiian chicken was good as well but I'm sure Dani L. will describe it better than I would since I only had a tiny bite. Service was great our waitress was very apologetic about the egg/eggplant thing lol. Prices here are very reasonable. Going to frequent this place for sure! read more

Stopped by tonight for dinner when I was told that Sushi Nini had a 25-35 minute wait. I used this as an opportunity to eat some Korean food locally since my favorite place is in Austin and I couldn't wait since we were hungry. I have been here a few times and the food was not disappointing. The first few times I was here, I usually get the salad bibimyun. That's always been on point and good. The last time I came here I had soup and tonight I went with soup (spicy soft tofu soup). I asked if they could make the soup extra spicy. To me, it could have been spicier but the soup hit the spot. The soup broth had good flavor. My friend enjoyed her galbi and sushi roll. As far as banchan (side dishes), they give you a few pieces in one dish. We had to ask three times for a refill. There are four of us so the struggle was real. The first time, they only gave us specific dishes we asked for and the second time she gave us one of each side dish. I don't blame them since they probably don't want people wasting it, but we are down with all of the side dishes. All of the sides were pretty tasty. Today's side dishes included: bean sprouts, potato, fish cakes, cucumber kimchi, cabbage kimchi and tofu. The place is not bad for Korean food and its local. read more

I am always skeptical to try places that are both korean and japanese food. I always feel like they try to be a "jack of all trades", but not specialized in anything. Miso was a pleasant surprise. I came at lunch time and tried a dolsot bibimbap, sexy lazy roll, and a spicy tuna roll. The bibimbap came with a choice of Jigae (korean soup) and also a few banchan items. Everything tasted fresh, and the spicy tuna was some of the best I have tasted in awhile. Lately I have been totally turned off by Spicy Tuna because most places have made a warm gooey paste out of the tuna which isn't appealing at all. Miso's spicy tuna was not this way at all. My only possible suggestions. No Korean meal should come without a healthy portion of Kim Chi. I was not served any. My favorite part of a Dolsot Bibimbap is the crispy rice that sticks to the clay pot that you have to scrape off with a spoon. This one could have porbably been cooked a little longer to get that crisp, just on the edge of burnt rice. If I wanted just steamed rice, I would get the bibmbap instead of paying extra for the Dolsot. read more
