Egg Rolls
Stephanie R.

The decor of this place is cute and the bar is directly in the middle. The waiter was great and knowledgeable. He recommended some appetizers and the Nigori which turned out to be great. We ordered the egg rolls, sea bass, salmon belly, garlicky tuna roll, and daddy doll roll. Everything was fresh, fast, and mouthwatering! I will definitely be back!

Food was bomb! We started off with chicken dumplings and spicy cucumbers as appetizers (not pictured because they were quickly devoured). Then we got a variety of rolls (all pictured). We got a good mix of rolls with a hint of sweetness, spiciness, and even fried chicken lol - first time for everything! All the rolls were delicious. Beware the fried chicken roll (big boy country) comes with a LOT cream cheese which made it less than enjoyable for me. Otherwise, the service was great and they have a sizable menu with lots of options and generous happy hour times!

My new fave! Quiet, casual, good value. They have specialty nigiri starting at $4 a piece which are inventive and tasty. Also unique items like Uni or scallop shooters. The Uni is delicious! Very fresh and $12 which is a fair price. Pictures is Uni, kizami salmon, trufacore (albacore w truffle), and bleeding escolar topped with masago. Friendly quiet restaurant at weekday lunchtime I was the only customer at 12 noon.

I dined solo here on my last night of a biz trip. It was close to my hotel and highly rated. Great atmosphere and music and lighting. I sat comfortably at a four-too table. The front bar was nearly full. The back sushi bar was empty at first but someone sat there later. There was stuff on the bar and not too inviting to sit there alone. I got the miso soup, salad and edamame from the Happy hour menu. Everything was discounted but portions were generous. I loved the mushrooms in the soup. Also the seaweed Wa speeder tenderness and the scallions crunchy- the way I like it. I also got an order of salmon sashimi and two unagi sushi. Everything was tasty and fresh. Service by the handsome waiter Nathan was attentive and not overbearing. The place was about 30-40% full the whole time which was relaxing. I would come back here.

I love sushi places that also offer crab Rangoon, though they refer to them as crab puffs. Anyway, the menu is extensive and varied. I've seldom take a look at the menu and see so much that I already want to order from them on another day so I can try more, but I will with this sushi place! Both rolls were delish! The crab puffs were perfect, not too much crunch, stuffed with crab and cream cheese! Yum! The only this that would've made it better is if the wasabi were more separate from the sushi as I've seen others do like using the ginger to create a wall around it.

Fried Soft Shell Crab, Tuna (Sashimi), Salmon (Sashimi), Super Crunchy Roll

Food came in quickly as soon as the order got placed. The waiter I had (his name was Anthony) was extremely friendly and was patient with me when it came time for me to order and always checked up on my table for refills if needed. the overall feel for the place was comfortable, the choice of music wasn't overwhelming.

Salad
Carolyn C.

We were greeted warmly at the door even before we entered the building, and the gracious service continued throughout our meal. We were in time to take advantage of happy hour, which featured specialty rolls at $2 off. The salad was fresh and crisp and colorful, with a bright ginger dressing. Sushi is beautifully presented, and everything tasted very fresh and umami.

Crab Puffs , California Roll, Super Crunchy Roll
Ambreen K.

Super crunchy roll - 9.5/10 - $14 - Soo good. Flavorful, crunchy, and saucyy. California roll - 8.5/10 - $9 - Tastes like a normal california roll, pretty basic as usual but still yummy. Crab puffs - 9.5/10 - $8 - One of the best crab puffs ive had. So cheesy and fresh. Loved it! Overall one of the better sushi spots ive been to. Everything tasted fresh and delicious

Ginger salad
Maria S.

I live nearby and decided to eat Japanese. Top Sush has lunch specials. I ordered salmon teriyaki. You choose between salad and miso soup. The ginger salad's serving was generous. The 6 oz of salmon came with steamed rice and grilled veggies. The salmon was overly cooked. The grilled veggies were not that flavorful. I have a better salmon teriyaki for less than $15 at another sushi place. The restaurant is a bit dark. I don't know what the objective is in having it so dark at lunch.

Chicken Fried Rice
Akhilesh B.

A decent sushi place with plenty of options for various needs. We ordered takeout and the food was ready on time. The staff was polite and happy to help. The is some bar seating available but the table layout is good too for a casual sushi eat out.

Sashimi three ways. Tuna & salmon...like budda!!!

We really love this place from the day we walked in! After thinking this place was fairly new, we learned it's been there 18 years!!! I think we didn't realize it because it's in a two story strip center that we don't normally frequent. How did we even find it? It's one of the only sushi spots not too far from us that's open on Sunday morning! Bonus!! Ambiance: Think strip center so only windows in the front where the door is located. That's fairly standard so nothing unusual. When you enter there is a small waiting/reception area. It's a tiny bit confusing because there isn't a hostess stand. You'll just walk through to the "other side" where the bar is located and someone runs up fairly quickly to greet you. The sushi bar is in the back. They've done a nice job of keeping it clean. Not too fancy but nice enough to spend $$$ for sushi! Service: We have always had the same server, Kim, and she could not be nicer and more attentive!! Food: We keep coming back! The sashimi is cut bigger than I'm used to but man, it's easy to eat when it's so buttery!! I love the hot rock because it's fun and the sake butter adds the extra. The yellowtail is such a lovely and light dish that is standout! ‍

However the maki here is pretty average, not what I expected of this group. Very casual location in a little food hall like area. Next to a fried chicken place and a pho place.

Upon arrival, I was told that I could not sit at the sushi bar and eat. If I wanted to order I had to go sit in the common area of this dining hall. After this discussion, I said fine and asked for a menu. They then told me I had to get up and order at the register and view the menu glued to the counter. They took the order of a couple who sat down maybe 2 minutes before me in front of me. I will never come back to this place. They seem to be the last man standing in this dining hall, and with this kind of customer service, they won't last much longer. It's a shame because I love the food and I am a regular at handies and aiko as well. Won't be back to any of them.

The vibe was moody and lightly lit, and the restaurant was busy with people celebrating. I ordered the sunomono, maguro crudo, salmon and king crab hand roll, and signature nigiri. The hand rolls were probably the best thing I've ever had, I even ordered an additional spicy tuna hand roll because I wasn't ready for them to be over. My sister even ordered another flight of nigiri because it was so phenomenal. To finish, I ordered the ube sponge cake, which was the perfect little treat to end the night. Seriously, I'll be dreaming about this meal. If I'm back in Houston, I'll definitely be coming back!

There were lots of rubber ducks scattered everywhere lol. Ordered a carajillo and the drink tasted GREAT! On the other hand... I sipped from each of my friends' ube espresso martini (did not taste the same between both drinks, bartender might have poured too much alcohol; couldn't appreciate any ube flavor). Not a fan of that drink (2.5 stars or less). HRW order - 1st: sunomono (cucumber) - 2nd: hotate crudo (delicious scallops!!) - 3rd: spicy tuna & sake handrolls - dessert add-on: matcha mochi (ok, can skip this) Other foods ordered: - karaage: chicken was well made, lots of flavor - sashimi (3pc): saketoro, madai, & hotate - unagi nigiri: eel was really good - spicy scallop handroll Even if you don't need to use the restroom, you should still check out the bathroom. The walkway was a pretty bamboo forest haha. Aside from the ube espresso martini, everything else was delicious and good! I recommend Aiko and would dine here again.

GENERALIZED REVIEW:…read more Came here with a friend from theatre after a full run--he had this place recommended to him by another theatre friend, so we're just passing on the word. The plaza was a bit confusing to navigate, and I'm pretty sure if the place weren't full of Asian parents and their kids, it would've felt like the shadiest place ever because you have to enter from the back. Otherwise, the plaza had a lot of great-looking stores overall. My first go-to: I've loved drinking Kirin Light ever since I discovered it in Chicago. The flavor is literally so light, with a slight acidity that brightens up my meal. The sake here was frankly also delicious. I didn't order it, but my friend did, and they had it warmed. The flavor was soothing and subtle, almost like tea. It was exceptionally easy to drink, and the ocean-themed ceramicware was a beautiful touch. We ordered two rolls: the Shaggy Dog and the Truffalufagus (a fun tongue-twister). I personally chose the Truffalufagus (which is not fun to spell) because it seemed like the most unique dish on the menu, and I enjoyed it very much. What I liked most about it was that it was subtle yet impactful. I also loved the textures--from the internal crunch paired with the fresh jalapeño to the softness of the fish. I'm glad I gave this roll a shot, and I would be excited to try it again anytime. The Shaggy Dog was great, but it appealed less to my flavor profile. It was a little too rich and creamy for me. I recommended this place to my BF as a potential future date spot--I personally think he would like it... if he weren't the type to enjoy AYCE sushi so much. If they had more unique rolls, I would definitely come back just for those. I was tempted to order the Surf and Turf for this round, but I didn't want to seem like a glutton, hahaha.

Amazing all around! Decor was refined and modern throughout the entire dining floor…read more Fish were all super fresh and delicious! Also had to highlight their house made soy sauce which was extremely umami, very unique and sets this place slightly apart from the many other sushi joints in its range Truffle crab chawanmushi was certainly a top highlight for me as well - rich truffle oil with the perfectly light steamed egg and sweet crab chunks, just an incredible dish and I could have easily eaten several of these The uni was also extremely fresh and buttery and was nice even for someone who doesn't usually like uni In the same class and range as places like Kata Robata and I would say it's a strong rival! Would come back again!

The Chawanmushi was decent but it was a little different than I expected. It had a little bit more liquid at the top of the egg custard. The flavor was fine nothing overpowered and it was soft and had that gelatin mush to it. The carbonara udon pasta was creamy and tasted exactly how I imagined it would which was smooth and creamy with a little crispiness from the pieces of bacon. Just make sure you mix the egg into the pasta to give it that rich creaminess. The only dish I would say that was underwhelming was the crispy rice. I guess my expectation would be a little less rice and a balance of the crispy rice around it. It reminded me more so of a thick fried outer crust. However, I did like the fish and meat they used on top of the crispy rice. They all had their own flavors. The Handroll tasting is probably the most interesting dish I ordered. It seemed to have a good portion of fish and they try to keep the seaweed nice and crispy by leaving the plastic film over the seaweed. The flavors of the Handrolls were subtle. They did make a nice presentation. The salmon flight was pretty good you definitely could tell from the different cuts and fattiness of the salmon. My favorite was the aburi cheese the scorched cream cheese gave the salmon a melted coating of cheese and made it silky and smooth. The nigiri platter was almost like a flight of nigiri. In the order I ate them they got progressively better. My favorite was the scallop and tuna. The only roll I tried was the royal chutoro. The portion was a good ratio of rice to fish and the tobiko gave it a slight crunch. as service and parking. The parking costs $10 and it's only Valet. If you decide to park on the curb somewhere you will get a parking ticket (I saw a guy placing tickets on cars). The atmosphere was upscale and you can tell they try to emulate Japan with the decor(zen inspired). Overall, the fish was tasted fresh and the vibes were there. However, I do think everything was a bit overpriced compared to competitors.

With such limited seating, all at the bar, the entire evening feels intimate and personal rather than simply going out for dinner. They take the time to explain everything you're about to eat, and my advice is simple: trust the omakase process. Every course brought something different, and even the unexpected dishes--like the Malaysian curry--were incredible. Between the spectacular sushi, the conversation, and the copious amount of sake (a very pleasant surprise), this was easily one of the most memorable dining experiences we've had.

The courses started off with some fun sashimi, bridged with a Laksa noodle soup, and then finished off with various pieces of nigiri and then dessert. Everything was super tasty, but my favorite was the first dish of bluefin tuna with jalapeno sauce (the sauce won me over). We went for the 6pm seating, and Chef Sky said he normally wraps that up by around 7pm to prep for the 8pm seating so if you want to really take your time I'd recommend trying to get the 8pm seating. However I didn't feel rushed at all for the 6pm. The only reason the review is not 5 stars is because I didn't feel very full at the end of the dinner, which I suspect may be because not all the courses were nigiri where you have rice to help fill you up.
