Cowboy Japanese BBQ&Sushi

The food is too good that I forget to take the picture. Everything is good from bbq, seasoning to sushi. I can't complain of anything. The service is good. The waiter usually checks on us and the food is served quickly. The sushi and meat quality is so flavorful and well seasoning and tasty. Even the miso soup tatses so good. I live far away but definitely come back.

Yes! Yes! Yes! Delicious experience. Service and atmosphere: 6 stars all around. Helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Not to forget very attentive. The restaurant looks really inviting and is well designed inside. Many seating options plus separate bar seats. Food and drinks: 6 stars all around again. Great selection of various starters, meats and sushi options. They have well designed menu that is easy to navigate and choose your selection. Everything we ordered was fresh, tasty once grilled and you can never run out as they offer eat as much as you can. Be informed that due to popularity your time at the table is limited to specific times. Wine, cocktails and beers are available. Our cocktails were very good. Pricing: $$/$ depends on the selected menu level.

Definitely the best AYCE places me and husband have gone to. Meats are all quality- even their base set already is amazing. Service is quick and staff are really nice. Their ventilation system is amazing because we left the place not smelling like food.

Excellent AYCE Japanese BBQ & Sushi spot! The highlight for me was definitely the unlimited sweet shrimp — very fresh, naturally sweet, and consistently good quality. The American Wagyu short rib was another must-order, tender with great marbling and perfect for grilling at the table. The restaurant was clean, the service was attentive, and the staff kept the food coming quickly without long waits. It’s a great place for anyone who loves premium all-you-can-eat options without sacrificing quality. If you’re looking for a place to enjoy sweet shrimp and wagyu short rib in Houston, this is a solid choice. I’ll be coming back for sure.

Fun place! No bar seating it was kinda busy so I did a lot of waiting but the wait didn’t feel long or arduous whatsoever! My server was quite busy and gave very little cooking explanation but didn’t get anything wrong and gave great recommendations. The food itself was not bad at all but I’ve definitely had better. Cocktails were great. All in all it was a solid find. Will definitely bring some friends next time.

I decided to take my wife to a KBBQ and sushi knowing she loves seafood 🍣 and wagyu steak. I actually had plans to go to another KBBQ and somehow last minute, I changed my mind. She was kind of disappointed at first but OMG, we got greeted and was put on a booth right away! We got the premium choice to spoil ourselves for our hard fought 9 years anniversary. The salmon tartare was amazing! The beef tongue and flank steak were so flavorful. The Wagyu slice rib was a melt in your mouth experience. Overall, an unforgettable moment for us. We would like to thank Jane, our amazing server! She educated us about the cooking method and just over the top customer service! Thank you so much Jane! An incredible moment we will never forget!

Had a great experience with my family celebrating two of our fighters competing in two different sports. Sergei our waiter was on point, offering suggestions and flavor profiles. We will be back.

Great vibe on for AYCE located on a popular strip of westheimer. Proteins are always fresh and sliced to order, never frozen. Service is very good, most places wait till your plates are empty before refilling, to minimize waste. Here they are very generous with their portions and very quick to refill. There are 2 tiers to order from basic and premium, we decided on the premium as it was dinner, but honestly when we had the basic the 1st time , it was more than enough with many premium cuts even on the basic. Premium only added a few more items which not everyone will like. Prices are inline with the market with lunch being a great value for all you get. A bit far from us , but definitely worth the trip.

Thank you Khang, This is my third time coming here, and it never disappoints! The meats are always fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The service is consistently amazing -- everyone is so attentive and friendly, which makes the whole experience even better. I'm always leaving full and satisfied every single time. The restaurant is clean, well-kept, and everything feels fresh. Definitely one of my favorite spots! Highly recommended Thank you Khang my Waiter today Love Tiffany Anderson From Vũ Đoàn Hoài Hương Culture Dance Group

Cowboy Japanese BBQ & Sushi is a really solid AYCE spot. The sushi is fresh, the BBQ is tasty, and everything comes out quickly even when it's busy. The place feels clean and modern, and the staff is friendly and checks in often. For the price, the quality is honestly better than most AYCE places. Definitely worth trying if you're in the area.

good place to eat. nice food and drinks! Definitely will come again with family. Service are good as well, they are all very nice and friendly.

After a 30 minute wait, we were surprised by the great value for good quality meat and sushi! Our waiter Khang gave us an A+ experience with fast and attentive service. The space is perfect for small groups and dates

Service and food quality have deteriorated, at least when I visited on Sat, Dec 27. My party ( 6 out of 10 ) arrived right on time for our reservation. Restaurant was not full at all and no other parties were waiting to be seated. We asked if we can be seated first but was told they'd have to start the timer when seated ( as opposed to timer started with 1st order as it has always been per our past experiences). We opted to wait but then later another hostess said she can seat my party first without starting the timer. The hostesses consistently gave conflicting information regarding reservation and seating protocols, it's been consistently very confusing ( and unpleasant experience at the get go) Once the order started, my party specifically advised we'd prefer to order sushi, sashimi etc first then the bbq meat later, hence, asked the server not to start the grill. He ignored the request and started anyway, without oiling the grill pan. By the time the bbq meat arrived, the grill was so hot and dry that the meat ( lamb shoulder) all stuck to the grill, broken in the pieces and not edible. Requested to switch out the grill and the server said we had to finish the existing round first ( but the grill was all burnt and dry) Sashimi arrived barely defrosted and could literally taste the "frost bite" after taste and blend. Overall a very unpleasant experience.

Heard about Cowboy from the Facebook feeds and saw the high Yelp ratings, they only take reservations for groups of 10 or more. When we arrived, it was full so were quickly seated. The table was a little small in my opinion and felt a bit crowded. They were innovative by adding shelves on the booth side wall for additional orders. On to the food. We went for the Ultimate level. We ordered a lot of sushi and sashimi and grilled meats. Aburi salmon and sashimi stood out for me. They were much better than other AYCE sushi places I've been. We also ordered beef tongue, short ribs, sausage and scallops. Those are the only one I remember but am sure we ordered more... hehehe. The meats were well seasoned and tasted great even without the sauces. The best thing is that you don't get easily tired of the food where everything starts to taste the same as you can switch from seafood to meat to change things up. Our server was pretty friendly and suggested some dishes to try. Once ordered, it does not take long for food to come out. Enjoyed the time chatting over good food. Definitely will be back to try the Supreme level. Only reason we did not as somebody in our group was not a big meat eater and would have been a waste as everyone have to order the same level.

I heard this was one of the best AYCE Japanese bbq and sushi spot in Houston so I had to try it when visiting. At first glance, impressive menu, definitely get your bang for the buck here. However, flavor wise, it didn't meet my standards for the hype I heard. Meat quality is definitely good here but I felt other things were lacking. Appetizer like the miso soup and egg soufflé arrived luck warm like it's been sitting out for a while before reaching the table. The pickled ginger for sushi was dry and shriveled up. It still tasted good with the octopus, surf clam, and seared salmon nigiris. Ooo and the avocado maki, so good that I ordered 2 servings! Avocado maki is a must try here! Server was very attentive and friendly here and checked on us multiple times if we wanted to order more food but we were too full to order more and just took our time finishing the food we previously ordered. Overall, decent experience and huge selections so I can see why locals keep coming back.

We were a part of eight people who came for a surprise birthday dinner for two within the party. The staff were amazing and quick. They also checked on us and sang happy birthday to our surprised guests of honor. (They held our cake in the back). We all ordered the ultimate which is currently about $37 a person. we ordered a lot of food. We tried all the meats that was under ultimate except beef tongue. Various appetizers and sushi. I really like that they have pineapples available. The ones we re-order were sashimis (super soft, like a cloud!), steamed eggs, shoyu beef skirt, garlic butter cubes, corn cheese, garlic king oyster mushroom . And a few other meats but I forgot which ones. They cut the meat just a tad thicker compared to other places. There is also a small shelving unit in the middle which makes it easier to put plates away. I was disappointed in the shrimp because I forgot they come with the shell. (That's on me) And garlic scallops. The scallops are the small ones in a small tin cup mixed with noodles and mince meat. It wasn't bad but just not what I expected. There is free parking out front . Last note, this is one of my top three Asian barbecue place. Great job guys!

Service was amazing - very attentive and knowledgable of menu We ordered the Supreme Package - came with everything on the menu (including Waygu select cuts) Appetizers, Sushi, Salads, Drinks, Meats alll were so fresh and tasty! Atmosphere was clean and organized. I used the Yakinihu sauce on errrrrrrythang lol it was so good!! 1000000/10 will be back!

My family and I visited Cowboy while in town for the weekend. There was a bit of a wait, but not too bad for a Saturday night. The ambiance was quite busy, but our experience was still enjoyable. Im a big fan of KBBQ and this is one of the best spots I've had. I will say it's more on the pricier side, but you can definitely tell the difference in the quality of meats. I was very excited for the sushi, but it turned out to me just okay for me. The staff were good and attentive, but if I were to be picky, the food runners just hand you the meats and run off. I'd be nice if they helped set it on the table instead. Overall, if I would recommend this place to someone who's in town and is willing to pay a little extra for some good quality KBBQ. The lamb chops were 100/10, juicy and had lots of flavor.

This place had some of the best sashimi I've had at an AYCE!!! The kbbq meats were good, sushi rolls were good, even the side salads were good! Our server was super attentive and came around often so we were never waiting to order more food. Note that you can only order 5 things per person per round, but it worked out just fine for pacing!

We ate here when we were visiting Houston and thought the food was really good. We really liked the boneless short rib and sushi.

Wow Cowboy Japanese sets the bar for this new trend of BBQ & Sushi restaurants! As you walk in, the modern ambiance immediately sets the tone. You are able to select from a variety of tasty AYCE menus with plentiful options of fresh meats, sushi, and appetizers. My personal favorites are the Toro Beef and Brisket. The meats were so tender and flavorful. I also really enjoyed the Sweet Shrimp Sushi and Wagyu Sushi. Every bite was perfection! Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Cowboy. The food was amazing, and the service was exceptional. I never had to wait more than a few minutes for any order. I can't wait to come back!

Yes! Yes! Yes! Delicious experience. Service and atmosphere: 6 stars all around. Helpful, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Not to forget very attentive.

If you are a meat eater this place is for you. Now it's busy but they have efficient and pleasant staff. We wanted wagyu so we went for the supreme option. It's in 3 tiers and the menu is color coded to show you what comes along with purchase. You have 90 minutes to dine which is more than enough time to try multiple things. Now you are gonna cook most things yourself, but just use the sauces, seasoning, and citrus to you liking to make a memorable experience. Quality was good for the meats and dishes we selected. Highly recommend. Come hungry and pace yourself.

When we (two people) arrived, the place was almost full, but we only had to wait for a minute or two before being seated. The staff was very friendly and brought us menus right away. We chose the middle-tier All-You-Can-Eat option. There were a few cuts of meat--I don't know the names--that were absolutely delicious. Our server patiently explained them, but I've already forgotten! The salmon and some of the other appetizers were also very fresh and sweet. I thought all of their dipping sauces were great, especially paired with the beef. The servers checked on our table frequently. Someone at the table next to us was celebrating a birthday, and the whole restaurant had a really great atmosphere.

I had the pleasure of trying this restaurant out for a Friday date night. My girl was craving sushi and I didn't want to drop $150+ this particular night so I found this all you can eat dinner option. I was a bit hesitant because I didn't know if the quality and freshness would be there, but everything was so good!!! As you can see we had a little bit of everything (and these aren't all the pics). From the appetizers, to the nigiri and rolls, to the dessert, I was not disappointed. The whitefish was my favorite nigiri!! I appreciated the fact that I could remove certain ingredients from most rolls to accommodate preferences and allergies. They don't take reservations but the establishment is large enough to where there isn't a long wait, even on weekend nights. I highly recommend you give it a try if you have an appetite and don't want to break the bank for a sushi lover.

Service was great food was 3 not worth the price connected to it . You might as well go to a top sushi restaurant and spend what you spend here. Beef tasted heavy marinate in lemongrass every bite reminded me of Vietnamese food.

We went on Friday, July 25, around 8:20pm. We had an amazing experience at Cowboy Japanese BBQ & Sushi. Went we arrived, I checked in using a tablet, the waiting time was about 20 minutes, I received a text message letting me know that the table was ready, but I saw the hostess first who guided us to our table. The only options available were the "Ultimate" or "Supreme", and we opted for the Supreme for more meat diversity. We loved everything. The Fried Rice was perfect. To end our meal, we enjoyed a round of sushi, which was fresh. (We waited a long time for the sushi) There was moderate noise, and multiple parties were celebrating a birthday. I also ordered a drink called the Mexican Sunset, which was excellent. The staff was friendly, and the restaurant was well-organized. I look forward to returning soon.

Amazing, nice service, orders came out quick. We got sushi, soup, dessert and meat, all pentiful portions. The grill didn't need to br switched too often either which was convenient. Very spacious best for big groups. Pretty casual and family oriented atmosphere.

Met my sister and niece here for a birthday lunch and it was amazing! We got the ultimate because we don't really care for wagyu and boy it was gooooood. The sushi was good, the quality of meats were good. The service was quick! The whole place seemed huge! It was perfect for our little group. Gotta try this place with a bigger group to see if service will be as A1.

The AYCE scene for Asian style bbq and sushi is fierce and I am woefully unprepared every time. Instead of classic KBBQ, Cowboy offers Japanese BBQ, which ultimately is fairly similar, just with generally less marinades and slightly different cuts of meat. My dad and I went for lunch on a Saturday afternoon for an early Father's Day outing. We were seated immediately in a dark cozy area. On the weekends, there are only two tiers: ultimate and supreme. Supreme is about $10 more expensive but is the only option that offers the AYCE Wagyu experience. We opted for the ultimate, which came with the premium lunch items and a good amount of other sushi items. Food came out in a timely manner and like other AYCE restaurants, you could order as you go. Portion sizes are all reasonable so it's easy to try multiple things without feeling overwhelmed. The meat, even if it wasn't Wagyu, was good, and each table comes with 3 different dipping sauces for yakiniku. The sashimi options are pretty diverse, not as diverse as a full out sushi restaurant, but had a good variety of fish and mixed cooked and raw options. My favorite sushi dish was the Aburi salmon, ended up getting two of those. Generally, all the fish was pretty fresh, not too fishy, although I will say that the cuts of tuna were not my favorite and I wish they offered the fattier cuts of tuna. We did also end up getting an extra garlic butter cubes that we didn't order by accident but it was good so we just accepted it. I think my biggest regret will be that my stomach can only handle so much food. They have a very diverse menu, including fried foods like karaage and takoyaki, and I would have loved to tried those as well. We ended up not trying any rolls either but they had a good selection that if there was more space in my stomach, I would have loved to try. At least there is always room for dessert. The pudding was yummy, exactly like the jelly pudding you get in boba and my dad had a delicious matcha ice cream. Definitely will need to be back! Maybe with an emptier stomach, a few more people, and a little better prepared.

First time and had a mediocre experience. The staff was good but the food is of buffet quality. I found a lot of the meats and sushi selections hard to eat and I wasn't enjoying my meal. It's far from "wagyu" quality. For the price point it was disappointing

Very cool concept, AYCE Wagyu for a very reasonable price, the cuts were of good quality and the sushi was also great the Wagyu nigiri was the best one for me . The service was great always on top of things ready to take the next order

What can I say that hasn't already been said about this place. The food is excellent, the service is great even when it's busy, and the interior is clean. I can honestly say this is a pretty good spot to take your friends, family, etc when you want AYCE sushi and Korean BBQ. With that being said there are some minor flaws that totaled up enough to change the score from a 5 to a 4. We got a variety of things to try, mostly sticking to the meats and sashimi. The sashimi was really good and fresh, my only complaint with it is there was inconsistency with the sizing. On our first round we got thin slices of yellowtail but thicker cuts of the other fish. On our final round of sashimi the yellowtail was a thick cut on par with the other sashimi on the plate. The fried foods were a bit of a let down, we got Agedashi tofu, takoyaki, and the fried banana. The Agedashi tofu truly felt like it was a vegan nugget with eel sauce on it. Don't get me wrong it was good but it wasn't Agedashi tofu. The takoyaki had a great flavor but I think that they make the balls too big. It was basically 5% octopus and 95% dough. This is usually fine in smaller sized takoyaki but this one was a bit too big. Finally the fried banana, they cut the banana and half and fried it which on paper should be fine but it was kinda soggy and cold by the time it arrived. The nigiri was also a mixed bag for my party. Some of the pieces had rice that was cooked perfectly and others had mushy rice. The inari that I posted a picture of was full of mushy rice which kind of ruined it. I also think that they filled the pocket too much and the inari itself needed to have more flavor. The meats were good, I would highly recommend the lamb chops if you go for the ultimate menu. I will say after a while of ordering different cuts of wagyu I couldn't tell the difference between the cuts, so I would recommend changing things up a bit when you go. The final issues I will address are the grills and the smoke machine they have. The grills get lathered in some oil or sauce(unsure which one it is) which is great but the meat will still end up sticking to it until the grill cover is mostly black. The grill also doesn't have that great of an induction so it can get pretty Smokey after a while. I found myself having to turn my head to get fresh air every now and then. This though could also have been attributed to us being seated by this cool light and smoke display they had. While it was a cool gimmick it made the area super Smokey and a bit unbearable. Also they replayed the same 6 songs on repeat which was pretty annoying.

I've been here two times and both times were amazing experiences! They have three tiers. I think the supreme is worth trying! Overall vibes was chill. There seem to be quite a few people there for celebrations. At the tables, they have three different sauces along with other things to season the meat. There is also extra napkins & wet wipes available for use. If you need extra plates you could also find them in the cabinets connected to your table. The servers are attentive & helpful when it comes to ordering food. They change the grill here and there. I really enjoyed the recommendations I got from my server. They know what's best and are truly very real with you unlike some places. Meat quality is great and plentiful. I think the sushi could be a bit better but still very good. Some favorites are: * Aburi salmon * Sweet shrimp nigiri * Wagyu boneless * Shoyu toro * Pudding

We tried the premium AYCE option and had a great time. All the Wagyu selections were melt in your mouth tender!! It was definitely the highlight of the meal. The Argentina shrimps were sweet and buttery. For sides, I especially liked the avocado salad. Their sashimi and roll options were solid too, with a good variety and quality. At only $45pp, definitely worth it if you're craving a wide range of sushi and Wagyu.

Came in 12/26 at 7:30 signed up for their line cue for a party of 5 and was told by from reception person that it will be 50 min to am hour wait so I sat down started waiting then looked around and noticed a whole bunch of empty tables and servers jus standing or waking around ook them many others came in and were seated almost immediately. When I asked front person said because those they people were for party for less than 5. They needed to have a table suitable for 6. Right in front of me is a table that had been empty so apparently they don't wanna seat larger parties yet they also don't take reservations. Does this establishment not want to serve more that 5 guests?

Honestly great in terms of AYCE quality! I'd definitely come again & think it's a good bang for your buck. Love the option of having sushi and bbq for ayce, what's not to love?? Some slight issues with the grill but could be user error lol. The seared nigiri and sashimi were more worth it than rolls imo. Meat was pretty good quality as well! Big restaurant with a lot of seating available. Good service as well!

Cowboy Japanese BBQ & Sushi is probably the best Japanese BBQ in Houston! Very good quality for the price. Quick rundown, we came as a party of 5 on a Fri night at 7pm. We only had to wait 15 mins, considering it was prime time, it wasn't bad at all. It helps that the restaurant is huge! The slight downside though is that their tables for 5 or 6 people only have 1 grill top. Service wise, they are FAST! 10/10 in that aspect. Food wise, our favorites were the Wagyu boneless short ribs, shoyu Angus toro beef, Angus ribeye, fried oreos, and strawberry ice cream. Overall, we'd come back again! We tried a little bit of everything, and once we found our favorites we kept ordering the same thing. Their variety of sauces and fresh garlic were really good too. Enjoy!

Great AYCE place! Has 2 tiers, $37 Ultimate & $49 Supreme. Did the Supreme! All the waygu you can eat and some! Great choices and selections of dishes! Sushi was fresh! When it's crowded, sushi orders took a bit to come out but wasn't too bad. Service was great! Staffs were very friendly! Can't complain with the price and selection of food!

A new Japanese BBQ place is needed in Houston, and Cowboy Japanese BBQ & Sushi is a good addition. Out of the 3 AYCE options, Supreme seemed to have the best meat variety, and that was what my friends and I went for. The Wagyu boneless short rib was one of our favorites. The raw fish on the nigiri were weirdly sliced in a thin and long rectangular shape. The sashimi were fresh, but the sweet shrimp was a disappointment. Considering the high turnover rate of the restaurant, naturally the fish and meat would be fresh. However, the quality of meat based on the AYCE price, it was acceptable. The ice cream flavors available were green tea, vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. The green tea ice cream did not have any green tea taste. The rest of the flavors were just typical. The fried Oreos and fried banana were so-so too. The Thai milk tea had a weird after taste, so I would not recommend. Service was kinda slow. The server was nowhere to be seen several times when my party wanted to get more food. That was probably why we could continue to order more after the 100mins time limit. Parking is easy and free.

Amazing food with great friends. Highly recommended and our server (Gwen) was fantastic and very good at what she does.

The venue smelled so good and yet the scents from the food did not stay on your clothes or hair. Good ventilation for a BBQ venue is so important and they nailed it. The food was fresh especially the sushi. Order the sushi prior to the BBQ to reduce the mess and have a more pleasant experience. It is so worth paying for the supreme price range that gives you wagyu beef and lamb chops. They marinate the boneless wagyu rib which is a must have. Add the dry seasoning to the lamb chops after it's cooked for additional texture and flavor. Enjoy and come hungry. The service was professional, prompt and serviced the food in a timely manner allowing for us time to savior each dish.

I'm just docking a star because of the food being delivered randomly and I have no idea what their system is on how food is delivered or how they keep track of the orders. There were some times we had to tell the waiter some of our orders never arrived (or maybe it was just taking a while?). Other than that, this place is a GREAT addition of AYCE BBQ and sushi. The food quality is actually really good for AYCE, especially their meats. And for an upgrade, you can also get wagyu which I recommend. Lots of variety. Some of their sushi/sashimi slices are on the smaller end but I wouldn't say it's a negative - just leaves more room to try more or other stuff. Can get quite busy during prime time/weekends but never had to wait an absurdly long time. And all the workers are very personable, accommodating and attentive! They also gave out bibs (that you get to keep!) which I thought was unique and kind. Traditional Asian BBQ vibe and a place to have good times with friends and family. For people with an appetite, I would definitely recommend this place! Can't wait to go back.

We were very excited to try this japanese bbq spot and it definitely was worth it!! We did the ultimate option which was definitely worth it for the meat options. The highlight and my favorite cut of the night was the wagyu boneless short rib. The meat was SO tender and melted in your month. The dipped sauces they provide are so good and complement the meat so well. We also got the salmon and eel sashimi and some of the special rolls. The sashimi tasted pretty fresh and it was nice that they rolls only came with 4 each so we could try a variety without getting too full. Even though the menu had said there was a limit if how many dishes we could order at once, they weren't too busy so they let us order everything we wanted each time. Lastly for dessert we got the matcha ice cream and pudding. They were nice sweet small desserts to end the meal. Overall, this place was 10/10 and I'd come here just to get more of the wagyu meat again because it was truly delicious and sooo worth it!!

I don't normally go to AYCE places other than KPot or Feast buffet because I can't eat as much as I did in my younger days. My daughter picked Cowboy for a meal for her birthday. We got there at 6:30 on a Saturday, and we had to wait about 10 to 15 minutes before being seated. When we initially got to the hostess, there wasn't anyone in the waiting area. By the time we got our table, the waiting area was packed and stayed packed the whole time we were there. I don't try the appetizers or soups at most AYCE places because those fillers take up valuable stomach space within the time limit of 100 minutes. We went for the supreme but I just concentrated on the 5 wagyu options only available on this option. I didn't find the meat too fatty and greasy and we ordered 3 rounds of the 5 items. My choice of sauce would be the yakiniku sauce. Overall the restaurant was pretty loud especially when they played "Happy birthday" for maybe 10 people. They brought my daughter a slice of cake and didn't verify if it was really her birthday. I'm not sure if they checked any of their other people or just took their word that it was their birthday.

Meat + sushi is a little weird together but I am 100% on board. Ordered the Supreme menu even though I think it was kind of a waste for a non-raw eater. For me, the wagyu bone in short rib and Angus Ribeye were the most tender and delicious cuts. They have some sauces and seasonings at the side of the table. You can ask them for what's not there like sesame oil. The argentine shrimp smelled super fishy, but the meat itself was not. It was sweet. The appetizers were not the best quality imo, but I liked the variety, especially the steamed egg. The cooked sushi were all really good. I wish there was a little more variety though because the cooked ones were all just variations if the same ingredients: crab, avocado, tempura. However, they were very generous with the amount of ingredients packed in the handrolls. I also liked that the maki rolls were only 4 pieces so I could try multiple types. All in all, this is a great concept and I enjoyed myself for the price. I think my only complaint is that it was really hot...

This was hands down the best BBQ and Sushi spot I have ever had. Our server Jay was super friendly and helpful. He made the experience so much better. I was so surprised at how fresh the fish was and all the meat we had was great.

We went on opening day knowing they would have some small issues. My waitress was not the best, very forgetful but sweet so most of my order was messed up or missing. It's food so it's fine. The food was hit or miss. The lunch bbq selection wasn't great. Do the dinner menu if you want better meat choices. Listening to the tables around me had the same opinion. The meat was very chewy. The sushi was ok, most were bland. I guess that's why they have wasabi. This place took over the previous AYCE True Sushi. I wish they would do something else with this place besides AYCE sushi. I hope this place has better success than True did.

It was the grand opening so there were a few hiccups, but overall this place has a lot of potential. The restaurant itself is very pretty and elegant as you can see from all the pictures. They have a weird, but interesting setup with the booths where spare napkins and plates can be found. So what didn't work? The sushi. The sushi doesn't have that great food presentation look and if this was a person's first time trying sushi they would be turned off as it does look kinda ugly. I think with time it will get better. Also, the chefs need to be better at telling the waiters what is what. I know they tried to throw the waiter under the bus, but really if you don't train the waiters to identify the sushi, the least the chefs can do is tell them what each one is. The bbq is actually great. I usually have not been impressed with the whole cook your own food thing, but it works. It's actually better than the sushi if you ask me. I loved the meat, seafood, and vegetable options. The waiter was great. The bbq was great. With time, I think the sushi will get there. Rounded them up to a 4, because although it's a 3.5, if they bother to work on the sushi elements it will be a solid 4 or 5 in no time.

This is an AYCE place, be prepared to wait if you are coming here, they are usually packed. But their staff is great, super accommodating and friendly. Be aware there is a time limit so my suggestion is to know what you want to order in advance and order in shifts. They have their weekday premium lunch menu $26.99 Ultimate $36.99 (includes everything premium) Supreme $46.99 Includes Wagyu beef (Includes everything premium and Ultimate) They have We have been here like 2 or 3 times now. We really enjoyed the experience and everyone at the table was engaged and interacting with each other. Never have I over eaten like I have here. I really enjoy the meat quality Beef is all pretty much great my favorites Original Toro Beef Shoyu Beef Wagyu Chuck Garlic Butter cubes Shoyu Cubes NY steak I personally did not like their sushi items but I definitely enjoyed the BBQ

Great service! Bryan was also a great and kind waiter! The menu provided a various food options varying from sushi, appetizers, and meats. The ambiance in the restaurant is very warming as it is busy with laughter and family joined together. Definitely recommend to any Japanese BBQ lovers!

Solid 3 stars for the food but the service was amazing from our server Ray. He was helpful, kind and patient with all of my questions. We came on a Friday around 5pm and was seated right away. Once seated Ray walked right over & introduced the items on the menu. We decided to get the supreme just to get the full experience. Here are the items I've ordered. * Miso soup- not enough seasoning and it didn't come out piping hot but it was doable. 3/5 * Garlic scallop- it came with some noodles & it was on an aluminum foil bowl. Basically you put it on the grill for 5 mins and it'll cook the scallop and noodles. Taste wise it was fine. 2.5/5 * boneless short ribs- solid. The meat was tendered & good quality. 3.5/5 * Angus ribeye- probably my favorite, it was tendered & parts of it were fatty which I liked. 4/5 * Shoyu beef shirt- it was marinated but very one dimensional. It was just sweet to me. 2/5 * Angus short rib- Definitely well marinated but no substance to it. Flavor profile wasn't the best. 2.5/5 * Chicken karaage- a little too small and barely any meat inside, but it was seasoned. 3/5 * Crabsticks- can't expect much from imitation crab but it was good. 3/5 * Westheimer rolls- good flavor, good sauce, lots of cream cheese. It was rolled very well and didn't break apart. 4/5 * Mango green tea- refreshing. Tea flavor was there. 4/5 * Green tea ice cream- very good. Creamy & strong green tea flavor. 4/5. Ray did a phenomenal job answering all of my questions and he was there when you needed to order again. The restaurant is nice and they have a full bar. For the price I didn't think it was worth 46 dollars but I was content and left full. Will I come back? It'll be a while until I come back. I'll just stick to Korean BBQ, because in my opinion it just tastes better.

I personally loved this place due to more un marinated meat and ayce LAMB chops. You can't find that at any other place. Meats were indeed higher quality but I don't know if most people will prefer the higher price tag. Good meats good service but beware pricier. The sushi section was good but not great. A lot of sauces are heavy with the garlic.

We got the supreme tier and the quality of sushi was actually really good! Much better than i would expect from an AYCE restaurant. The meats as well were good quality. The menu had a lot of variety with appetisers, dessert, soups, salads and meats to choose from. Ethan was our server and he was also great! I would highly recommend this place. Best AYCE Korean bbq I've had in Houston so far.

I wish I could list everything I ordered, but honestly--I got almost the entire Supreme menu! Our server, Justyn, was amazing and gave great recommendations throughout. There were so many standout dishes, I lost track of my favorites. Overall, I highly recommend this spot for its wide variety of both barbecue and sushi options!

the ambiance was nice and we ate so much food!! most of it was super good. The service was fast as well. i walked away so full i could throw up

Visited with my cousins for weekday lunch and we had Sergey as our server. He was super nice, attentive, and really personable! All of our orders came out fast and delicious. The meats are all great - loved the brisket and garlic pork belly! All of the appetizers are delicious as well, enjoyed the calamari and chicken karage. The nigiri is also really good; I loved the eel and shrimp - super fresh! My favorite sushi rolls are the shaggy dog and cowboy! I tried the stir fry noodles which was okay - a bit too salty for my taste and way too much onions. All of this food and the price being just $26.99 is an amazing deal for me. Would definitely go back to try the rest of the items on the menu!
