    We were in the area for a doctors appointment so we decided to visit Nabe. I had the unfiltered sake, house salad, rainbow roll and the hot Tokyo roll. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was good and fast. This was a cute little spot and definitely a great location.

    Lovely sushi spot in northwest Austin. A lot of great options on the menu, and I went with the yellowtail lover roll. Warning: should be called the jalapeno lover roll! But I enjoyed it and would definitely recommend checking this place out.

    Stopped in for the first time tonight. Nice dining area with friendly service. The takoyaki appetizer was a nice start. We also enjoyed the sushi. The Kaoru chefs special was a nice selection of nigiri and a roll. We'll be back to try some more of their rolls.

    Came here on a whim and I can say I've found one of my favorite sushi spots in Austin. We got the $180 4 person meal and it was plenty of food to share. The service was quick and the restaurant interior was really nice. One thing I wish they did was have the nigiri and sashimi come out before the rolls. It may be a personal preference but the rolls got us extremely full in the beginning and we couldn't enjoy the fish as much because of this. The calamari was more on the breaded side and not that much octopus in the inside - I would skip out on this appetizer. (Garlic edamame was delicious) Otherwise ~ everything was great!

    Nabe is such a solid sushi spot in Austin! Super fresh fish, creative rolls, and everything comes out looking and tasting great. The vibe is modern but still relaxed, and the staff is always friendly and on point. Perfect place for date night or dinner with friends....definitely one of my go-to sushi spots in town from now on. Excellent platters. Sumika (rice) one and Shobu. Both come with two miso soups.

    Hands down the best sushi I've had in the Austin area! The quality is excellent, and the prices are super reasonable. The servers were incredibly friendly and professional, which made the experience even better. The uni, hamachi, and saba were especially fresh and delicious. I also tried the California and unagi rolls--both were very good! Definitely recommend them. The lunch special bento boxes are an amazing deal. I had the tonkatsu bento box, and it was really tasty! Overall: Great sushi, great value, great service. Clean, welcoming, and worth coming back to. Highly recommend!

    Came here for weekday lunch and was pleasantly surprised to find a hefty menu for the weekday lunch specials. There were a ton of tables open so it didn't feel crowded. There was plenty of parking and the service was good. I came here specifically for the chirashi bowl and it was delicious and filling. It came with a wide variety of fish, but the rice was a little on the drier side. Nonetheless, it was seasoned well. The salmony 1 came with a good mix of different salmon, all delicious as well.

    Great sushi with rolls I haven't had anywhere else. Definitely try the "Yellowtail lover" and "Vanessa" rolls. Thank me later!

    Bunch of nigiri's

    I'm so happy to have discovered another great sushi spot in Austin! The quality of the food here definitely lives up to its ratings. For nigiri, I absolutely loved the scallop, miso salmon, and toro. One of my all-time favorite rolls has to be the We Need Protein Wagyu roll--I'm not sure if that was garlic butter on top, but oh my goodness, it melted in my mouth! Whoever invented this roll is god-sent. The smokiness of the Wagyu left a lasting impression. As for the Torotoro roll, it was decent--good, but nothing particularly special or rave-worthy. Good service. Chill ambiance.

    I decided to visit this restaurant based on a friend's recommendation. Although it's a bit of a drive from my place, I usually come to this area once every three months. The restaurant is spacious, and they have an outdoor patio. However, I wouldn't recommend sitting there during the summer because it's not covered. The chicken katsu was decent, but not particularly impressive. The fry on it was uneven in color and some of the pieces were quite dry. The scallop was just okay. It lacked flavor even though it was stir-fry with garlic and other ingredients. The service was average. It was their soft opening when I visited, so I can understand that they were still learning.

    Karaage Chicken Bento
    Rolando N.

    Nice addition to the Japanese/Sushi scene around the Four Points area. Went there for lunch and found the food to be very good. The lunch specials were varied and covered all the bases with many Bento and Sushi combination options. The food is very good. Sushi was fresh and tasted great. We really enjoyed the Karaage and Tempura Bento boxes. Delicious sampling of many Japanese favorites. Service was friendly and prompt.

    Lunch bento
    Paula L.

    Came here on their 3rd day of opening and they did not disappoint. The lunch menu had quite a lot to choose from and prices were fair (between $16-28). The food was delicious! There were still some kinks to be worked out such as the rice was a bit undercooked, miso soup was way too salty and luke warm. But other than that, really can't complain since it was their 3rd day of business. Servers were attentive and owner was nice. Ambiance was on point. This is a much needed restaurant for the River Place area and I'll definitely be back.

    Drinks menu

    Fantastic addition to the four points area. They claim to be upscale sushi and they are. The bento box lunch is about $20 but a good value. The salad was fresh, everything was delicious, and it was plenty of food. I will be coming back for dinner!

    Roll with Salmon and Apples!

When I finally did, I discovered one of the best Japanese restaurants in Austin. Okay ... if you are going to pay $600 for an omikase then the omikase place is better. The tasting menu at Uchi is better. But if you just want Japanese without paying a gold brick and taking out a second mortgage on your house, Miyo Yakitori and Sushi is pretty damm fine. * * * a) Japanese curry is a utility dish in most Japanese restaurants ... and when you get down to it, in most Japanese homes. It is often what you serve on "cheap" night. Airport hotels offer it as the "free dinner" for tired travellers. The curry sauce itself here is standard issue. But they serve it with a Pork Katsu the size of Williamson county. And it is a very good Pork Katsu. That Katsu was good from Liberty Hill to Thrall and from Hester's Crossing to Jarrell. b) My carnivorous partner's Fireball Udon with Shellfish blew him away. Temperature wise and aesthetic pleasure wise. He raved about how good his udon was all the way home. c) Service was instantaneous. I think there was some sort of event horizon distortion of the space time continuum that allowed them to prepare the food and then go back in time and deliver it within a minute of it being ordered. Both of us were impressed. d) The service staff was as nice as any human beings could possibly be. * * * Great food. Great service. The folks who live in the apartment complex that Miyo is in are very lucky people indeed. Either the apartments are lovely and they get Miyo on top of that. Or the apartments are terrible, but they can still spend all their time in Miyo to compensate. Seems like a fair trade. **************** If you read the other reviews, There seems to be some controversy about this establishment. Miyo has fans and Miyo has haters. * * * Here is my read on the conflicting opinions: a) Earlier in the restaurant's history - Say about 2016, 17, or 18, The restaurant was not very good at all. I think at that time it had another name. b) There was a name change and quality went up. Sometimes when this happens there is an ownership change (or there is an owner who swaps out the management and cooking team to put in new blood.) However, things got fixed, they got fixed. c) Miyo's yakitori is apparently still not where it needs to be. I am not a huge Yakitori fan. If your broiled meat on a stick is not $80 an ounce Wagyu, Or amazing organ meats grilled in the Caucasus Barded with lamb fat and with farm fresh vegetables On another skewer for serious taste contrast ... If you are not at that high level, I don't want to pay for meat on a skewer. There are people who DO like Yakitori. They do NOT like the Miyo versions of that. * * * Yakitori is less than 20% of Miyo's menu. The rest is sushi or wonderful cooked dishes. Lay off the skewer food and you can do well here.

When we arrived at the restaurant, the hostess said that she didn't have the reso on her end; rather than apologizing or making a single effort to fix the issue, she just stared at us. We had to prompt her for clarification and next steps, and had to continue to prompt her through the process of getting us sat. When we finally sat down at a regular table, we waited about 15 minutes without a server coming by. I eventually flagged a server down, and we got our order under way. We requested the manager stop by to tell him about the issue with the reservation and the fact that his hostess needs additional training, and surprise, the manager was also not helpful. He did apologize for our reservation being lost, but blamed it on the system and denied any responsibility for taking care of it - basically just told us that "life is life". He did not offer a discount or any kind of relief for the setbacks or bad service. I wasn't expecting the world or anything, but good hospitality dictates that you do more that basically tell us to just deal with it. For the food: the sushi was pretty gnarly - it looked like somebody was angry at the fish when they were slicing. Most things needed salt. Steak and fried rice was good, but the vegetables were pretty much raw. I can forgive quite a bit when it comes to service, especially on graduation/mother's day weekend. But honestly I'm a little impressed at how little the entire staff cared about their guests.

We arrived on time for our reservation (party of nine) and were told there would be a 10-15 minute wait, which ultimately turned into 45 minutes. The party ahead of us kept changing their guest count, with additional people arriving later, causing the hostess to repeatedly adjust their reservation and push back other confirmed parties. I checked in with the hostess several times, and although she eventually found us a table, it was an uncomfortably tight fit. There was no effort made to acknowledge or remedy the situation. At the very least, a complimentary appetizer or drinks would have been appropriate given the inconvenience. Unfortunately, I will not be returning to this restaurant-inconsistent service.

Huge serving of chicken was served with the noodles, which were prepared to order with chili paste to make them perfectly extra spicy.
