IchiUmi Sushi (Haru Sushi)

Great seafood place in Texas! Never thought I would get decent sushi place while visiting in Texas, but yes I really liked the Mero seabass here. Sashimi sampler is also great for its price! Food did take a bit to comeout but i guess they were cooking it from scratch. Would come here again!

Really solid sushi restaurant. Although it’s Japanese, the waiter and the hostess were speaking Mandarin Chinese when deciding what table to put us at (totally fine, just outside my expectation). The atmosphere feels nice and relaxed. My wife got the bento box with eel and I got two types of rolls; Texas and Philadelphia. Really tasty!

This is my first time came here. The atmosphere of the restaurant is clean. The food is very fresh. There are many menus and it is very delicious. Price reasonable The staff is very nice service mild and good recommend food for us. Also restroom is clean. I recommend it for those who like Japanese food. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I ordered the California Roll, Squid Teriyaki, and Seafood Udon. Out of the three, the California Roll was the best. I was a bit disappointed to find that the seafood wasn’t very fresh—the squid and the seafood in the udon weren’t up to par. The atmosphere inside was pretty comfortable, and the staff were friendly, but they really need to work on the freshness of the squid.

Love this place! 2nd time here to celebrate Mother's day! Generous portions and the main sushi chef is awesome! Wished the other one was there too when we were there the first time last year. It was very busy and for a Friday night of course. Our waitress was good too although she would disappear and would take a while for her to return. But all good. We understand as we were chowing down all the yummy sushi!

I really wanted to like this place. I’ve passed by it so many times and was excited to finally give it a try. To start on a positive note, the restaurant itself is nicely done and has a great atmosphere. My server was amazing! Attentive, friendly, and the food came out at a good pace. The soup was warm and delicious, though I wasn’t a big fan of the salad. I ordered the sushi combo roll and sashimi. The roll had good potential, but the spicy mayo completely overpowered it—it was way too mayo-forward, and most bites were just too heavy. As for the sashimi, the fish was okay but a bit too thickly cut. If it had been super fresh, I wouldn’t have minded, but it was a bit tough to eat and I ended up not finishing my plate. Fish can definitely be tricky, so I’m hoping it was just an off day. Maybe I’ll give it another shot sometime down the road!

Pretty good sushi. I really enjoyed the fatty salmon rice bowl. The portion was good. I think it's a little pricy for the quality though. We also got the ten piece sashimi sampler. Also pretty good, better price to quality. Overall I would not mind coming back.

This place is a hidden gem OMG!!! 💎 The food was delicious. We were seated immediately, and the ambiance was so chill. 👌 recommend it to all! The wagyu so good! The rolls were perfect! The wife loved the mushroom soup. Oh and definitely get the in house cheese cake. We ordered alot more lol and I can't remember but everything was amazing.

I love Ichi Umi. The food is delicious, and I would recommend you try their specialty rolls. The service is excellent and the waiters are very nice. The food comes out promptly and is beautifully plated. The ambiance is casual and it is never too busy or noisy. I would 100% recommend Ichi Umi!

Unknowingly we've been to Ichi Umi twice since we've visited Austin on two separate trips since they changed their name, and the food and service did not disappoint. Definitely take a look at their today's special board near the bar as I totally missed it while ordering. Luckily, my husband pointed out the smoked negi salmon and it was an amazing presentation (bowl full of smoke revealed the 2 pieces) and great taste. Their sushi is fresh and comes out fast. I enjoyed the rainbow roll and the hamachi roll. Their fried rolls are a little heavy on the jalapenos and sauce. Overall, still great quality sushi with nice booths and attentive servers.

Nicely tucked away in a strip mall - this was a great little find. Spacious and inviting with very friendly and welcoming staff. I was staying nearby at a chain 'Inn' and am very glad I skipped the in-house bar bistro. Great range on the menu with good selection of Japanese beer and Sake. I opted for a local 512 IPA which was delicious. Miso soup, gyoza and a sashimi/nigiri platter = all very fresh and tasty. Finished the night off with a fantastic unfiltered Sake(well to be fair - I was so full and only had one glass but they let me take the bottle home). Overall great value and a nice change from your garden variety "chain" restaurants that populate strip malls. One very very minor downside was the music selection- some kind of jazz fusion that just didn't seem to work with the vibe. But hey - I was there for the food scene and not the tunes :)

The mango sake was sweet and thicc. It reminded me of an alcoholic naked drink. Sounds weird but actually pretty good. The spicy crunch roll had spicy crab, avocado, crunchy flakes, spicy sauce, and eel sauce. It was so good!!! The spicy sauce had such a good kick and it actually was spicy, not just a little spice. The crunchy flakes added a nice texture and as always the eel sauce is just the perfect touch to any roll. I want to do shots of eel sauce. The texan roll was more plain with just tuna, avocado, and cream cheese. Pretty basic but pretty good. I dipped it in soy sauce and added a piece of ginger and viola - the perfect bite.

Stopped by this sushi place across the way from the domain and we were pleasantly surprised! The fish was very good, our favorite was the Otoko at market price ($8 per nigiri bite - but so worth it) and we got a creative specialty roll as well. Pricing was fair, but we did end up spending $70 for two people. Service was good, although slow at times. The inside was very nice, you'd never know it was part of a strip mall. I would definitely come back here!

By the time I got the Ichi Umi I was starving and came here because it was pretty close. A friend had ordered me some sushi from here but had never dined in. I recalled liking it but at the same time I didn't want to go much further. I walked in and got seated promptly-it was a weekday and that weird greyzone where it was way late for lunch but too early for dinner; that time some restaurants just close before the re-open. It was quiet with maybe 2 other tables so our server came right to us took drink orders and since I was hungry just ordered the escolar right away. The owners are probably Korean since they had Hwe Dup Bap, which is like the Korean version of Chirashi but more complex. I decided on that for my main while the escolar came out. The escolar was great, not overly fatty and the ponzu was balanced just right. The hwe had a good variety of fish and a quail egg-which is a nice touch, not too much of a gochujang kick but overall very good. Good place to stop by with a pretty broad menu selection and will be heading back soon.

Absolutely loveeeee this place! The best dish to get is the sashimi rice bowl. The portion is huge, and they provide generous amounts of fish alongside a small bowl of miso soup. It's a filling and refreshing meal! We got the agedashi tofu for our appetizer and it was light but flavorful with the soy sauce. The karrage was juicy and tender, pairing perfectly with the lemon and sauce, which slightly reminded me of horseradish. Service was great, and the inside is spacious, accommodating to wheelchair users. We did not have any major difficulty navigating the place with my grandma. Plenty of parking!!

A friend and I got take out from Ichi Umi and for what we got it was good sushi! The quality of the fish was solid. If I had to rank the rolls: Rainbow, Zen zen, Redwood, Spider. Rolls were pricy but definitely worth it. They were busy when I went to go pick up so be sure to put your order in advanced. I had to wait a bit longer.

Several name changes and the quality has never gone down. Ichi Umi (I remember formerly at one time was simply called Haru), is always my goto spot if I'm in the cravings for some nigiri or speciality sushis. Even better with friends to show off the "sushi boats" they offer. Atmosphere: Modern looking sushi spot, with clear view of the sushi chefs making the meals. Plenty of seatings at bars and private rooms. Food: I've tried from them many don bowls, nigiri, sushi, and even some of their bento boxes. All have been excellent, it really depends on what you are wanting or craving. I highly recommend any fish related dish such as nigiri or sushi. Nigiri always comes out with the perfect amount of salt and ponzo to get that right amount of savory. Service: Every time I've gone service is hospitable and helpful. No complaints. Sometimes you need your "go-to" spots for places to take friends when not wanting to venture out too far. Ichi Umi Sushi is mine in terms of when I or a friend need to get those good sushi cravings down.

My regular spot was closed, I was looking on map and Yelp which sushi place I can go instead, we picked this one and we're not disappointed. Service was top notch, great food and nice atmosphere made us happy. I would go back to explore their menu. Fish Katzu and tempura udon surprisingly were not boring, or bland. Portions were pretty big. I got South Korean burger Hambak with egg, fish katzu and shrimp tempura. It was delicious.

The food is excellent, the prices are reasonable, and the staff is super friendly. You can't go wrong with Ichi Umi!

We went there after a long day and this definitely hit the spot. Was impressed with the quality of the food and the service was nice and friendly. Although we were there in the afternoon time so it was not during a meal rush. It was very quiet inside with a handful of couples in different places. Looked Japanese and festive. Nice interior for sure. Was not expecting it when I walked into the restaurant from outside strip mall parking lot. Everything was great, but I wouldn't get the seaweed salad again just because it was nothing extraordinary that I couldn't get somewhere else. The sauce on the escalator was excellent.

Came here 3x during a 5 day work trip. Got take out every time and the food was neatly packed and was as delicious as it could be. Was fresh and packed with soy sauce, wasabi and chop sticks. Tried maybe 10 different rolls and all were amazing. Honestly, not a bad roll here. Only thing that could be improved is service. Felt like the food took longer than expected and wasn't always greeted by someone.

3.5 is where I'm at. We went in for lunch and they have a very large menu, a happy hour menu and a lunch menu all with great prices. With these great prices, the sushi quality sits around the same. Nothing too bad but nothing fancy either. We got the zen zen roll, spicy salmon, and yellowtail roll. We also tried the salmon belly sushi. The salmon tasted very fishy so I would not recommend that. The best thing we had was the zen zen roll which was actually pretty spicy and had hot cheeto dust on top. The spicy salmon roll was ground fish which is my pet peeve so that wasn't my cup of tea. The interior is beautiful and they have really great service! Everyone is very nice and accommodating. I'm a bit of a sushi snob but this place was not bad at all for the price. Presentation is beautiful though.

We decided to try this place out again. We had a great experience dining in. The food was delicious and the server was friendly. It's a nice cozy relaxed casual restaurant. Hopefully when we order take out it's the same great experience

IchiUmi Sushi (Haru Sushi) was tasty and the katsu udon really hit the spot as well as the spicy tuna roll. Our server was friendly and it wasn't too busy on a Monday night. I'll be back.

I took the kids here last evening since everyone is in town for Thanksgiving. We always enjoy the food and tried a new seafood noodle dish that we liked. We got the spider roll, veggie tempura, salmon avocado roll, and one more roll that I'm blanking on the name of. We like that it's relatively easy to get a seat at the time we went around 6:30 pm and we were served fairly quickly. They continue to be a really consistently good place to eat and I'm sure we will go back many more times!

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while. The service was wonderful, atmosphere was so pleasant, and the food was great! We left full and so happy!

I visited this place with a friend and it was a wonderful experience! Their sushi menu is extensive and they've got something from everyone including gluten free options. Parking was easy to find and service was great. I loved the garlic edamame, the sauce was addictive I wish I could put it on everything. We also got two sushi rolls at the restaurant, I can't remember the names but they were the shrimp bestsellers as recommended by our warriors. I believe one was called volcano? It was absolutely delightful that I got another to take home for my husband. Highly recommend this place and I can't wait to be back to try more sushi here!

Got food from Uber Eats, so I'm giving it an extra star because some things might actually be better at restaurant....? Maybe. Ordered a variety of things, but literally none were good. 2 California Rolls (4/10 - basic and very small) Chashu (6/10 - decent portion, nice smoky flavor. Didn't care for the sauce. Arrived cold, which being as fatty as it was made it unpleasant, so may be better in the restaurant.) Chili Escolar (3/10 - decent portion but covered in a slimy white liquid that wasn't a sauce. Also arrived room temp. Very fishy. The sauce was nice and went well with Chashu. No real heat or flavor.) Hungry Roll (2/10 - paper thin slivers of fish on what was a very small roll to begin with. Tasted fishy despite having barely any fish. See image.) Negihama Roll (4/10 - ok. Again a very small roll) Texas Roll (3/10 - small roll, barely any fish. Cream cheese overpowered everything.) Miso Soup (2/10 - not good) Rice, which I asked for only because the Chashu was described as a braise...but ended up being just dry slices. Overall the meal was a huge disappointment in size, flavor and food quality. Literally some of the worst sushi over ever had. When I called restaurant to let them know, I spoke with Jenny who basically told me there was nothing she could do about it. Maybe an off night?

I have been here a couple of times now, and both times, I enjoyed my dining experience. This time, I ordered Ichi Umi Sushi specials, Salmon Nigiri, Salmon Sashimi, and Miso Soup. The fish slices were large and fresh tasting. A delicious meal. We were met as we entered and shown to our table. Our server came by just after sitting to take our drink orders. Then, they took our food order. The server came by several times and was readily available when we needed something. The restaurant is quite large and clean. The noise level was fairly quiet, although people were having table discussions. The bathrooms were clean and smelled good. There is also plenty of parking in front of the business. A very nice lunch and dining experience.

Delicious sushi spot! We had a wonderful meal here this evening. The toro special was outstanding! I hope it stays on the menu. The black widow was our second favorite, and hungry roll was also very tasty. Excellent cuts and presentation.

Fantastic meal with fresh fish, high quality service, and fit us in for a same day reservation despite being absolutely packed. We tried the NegiToro (buefin otoro) small wooden box, Shirakabegura Sake, the Choo Choo roll, and the Sunset roll and were in love! The sushi was so fresh and reasonably priced. I do wish they had cold sake by the glass instead of a whole bottle (which is a little pricey) but this is my favorite sake so we decided to grab a bottle and did not regret it. The menu is huge so we took a little while to decide on what we wanted and our waiter was very patient and attentive. This has to be my new favorite sushi spot in Austin, and you know we will be back. Thanks so much for such a high quality experience!

First time here! Really Yami！ Delicious. Highly recommended! We have Hot Rock wagyu, The mouthfeel is silky and smooth. All Fish are reallly Fresh, and rice very soft and taste good ! We r there at around 8pm , it is really busy time . we still get really good service! Jenny always come to ask anything we need , take good care of us! She is really friendly,Seems like we enjoy at home ! Can not wait coming again' really great dinner enjoy in Ichi Umi ! Well worth and Delicious!

Honestly, a pretty decently priced restaurant! And the food is high quality too! Shared an appetizer and the sashimi bowl with a friend and we were both decently full at the end. The takoyaki is so creamy and it comes out nice and warm. Would definitely recommend that. And the sashimi bibimbap is so worth it. For $23 you get a huge bowl of sashimi, rice, and vegetables. And you get to mix it all like bibimbap.

Came here to celebrate a friends birthday! Super friendly staff and great food. The prices were reasonable, however the food did take a longggg time to come out considering we didn't order anything from the kitchen and it wasn't super busy. Very clean and great experience overall! I got the salmon skin roll and smoked salmon sushi. I didn't taste much of the smoked flavor but it was still delicious!

awesome casual sushi spot! super roomy and service is very lovely, i even had a birthday dinner here! accommodated 16 people and service was fast. even gave me a birthday dessert! love their rolls and chirashi bowl is a great deal, lots of fresh fish and variety and even have an uni option.

Service was fine- I was expecting better food based on reviews. I got the salmon bento box- salmon was over cooked, the California roll had too much rice- big stick of imitation crab but minuscule amount of avocado and where was the cucumber lol The fried tempura-Couldn't tell what it was but tasted like a potato cake that was pretty good but the breading wasn't tempura batter. Miso soup was really good.

Ichi Umi sushi has a great selection of fish and good happy hour deals. I ordered the escolar and the sea bass nigiri. Sitting at the bar the nigiri is hand delivered by the sushi chefs which was a nice touch. The lychee sake tini is refreshing. I like the chasu as well, the grill on the pork belly is delicious I just could use a bit more sauce. Would definitely return M - Thur for happy hour.

Ordered takeout from here a couple times and the sushi was pretty good! Sometimes the rolls are a little messy which is why I am docking a star. I've had a couple times when some of the rolls tasted a little fishy. But usually pretty good.

Delicious! This is my second time eating here, and it never disappoints! Food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Haru Combo, which came with tons of little bites and tofu and brussels. Everything was mouthwatering. Service is extremely attentive, with wait staff constantly checking in to make sure you have everything you need. The food came out quickly, too, which was nice since we were quite hungry!! Plenty of parking in the huge lot out front. Highly recommend!

Excellent service. We were seated quickly on a Friday night. One thing that we noticed: customers seemed to be enjoying their meal experience by the smiles on their faces. Our experience was similar -- food was truly good. High quality sushi at very reasonable prices. Started with hot sake and appetizers: Hotate Crudo was truly wonderful, in presentation and taste. Highly recommend bc the Hokkaido scallops were incredible. Selected the Matsu sushi combination option pictured: it was an amazing value for high quality sushi -- the chutoro was notably good. The Agadashi Tofu was so delicious and the Takiyako was very delightful as well. Our server J---? was happy and pleasant and helpful. Complementary song and mochi ice cream dessert for birthday celebration was a very nice touch.

Wow this was so good! The chicken karaage is yummy and the sauce is really good with it! The citrus flavor goes really well with it! The sushi rolls are delicious and filling. The shrimp tempura was fried and kinda greasy but that's ok. I've been here before and the portions are very good.

Presentation was phenomenal. The server was great and very attentive. The food came out super fast. I had the shrimp tempura roll, calamari, and brussel sprouts. The calamari was decent (pretty good but not earth shattering) the brussel sprouts were delicious. The restaurant is very cute! This is a great spot for family, a date, or anything in between. Overall, great experience and I'd highly recommend.

Cold smoked sake toro haas great presentation with Kaluga caviar on top of salmon belly and decorated with gold flakes . Sushi taco tuna tastes great with good combination of mango relish, goat cheese and honey wasabi sauce. The cucumber salad is unique and refreshing.

This is our favorite weeknight/togo sushi place! The rolls are decently priced and everything is always tasty. Our go-to is the Don Katsu. The portion size is huge and can definitely feed two. We recently also tried the Ahi Tower which was super tasty and I love the concept of make your own hand rolls. The Hotate Crudo was a little fishy for my taste but the flavors work well together. The service is always fast for parties or two or even a whole private party in the back room.

I am a fan! This is a good spot for casual sushi meal. The fish tastes fresh and the portions are fine. The rolls are put together expertly, not sloppy. Service was friendly, albeit didn't check on us during the meal and we had to flag someone down to order additional food. The matsu combination is a great deal. I sat at the sushi bar and enjoyed watching the chefs. They do have a happy hour now.

Friendly service, and sushi was good. Will be back when I'm near that side of town. I'm also looking forward to trying other things off the menu.

Went for a late lunch on a Thursday. Restaurant was clean and quiet. Servers were friendly and attentive. I got the agedashi tofu ($7.50), kaisen don without uni ($46), and ika nigiri ($2.50). Everything was high quality, fresh, and delicious. I was especially impressed by the tuna and sweet shrimp--so flavorful! I arrived hungry, and found myself actively working to eat more slowly just so I could taste everything for longer. I left very satisfied. Highly recommend.

Excellent chicken yaki udon. Lots of chicken and spicy enough. Sushi overall was good. Fish was fresh but the rice felt a bit stale. Could have been more moist. The ice cream felt like it was hard for a while and broke into chunks. Service was good overall and quick. Would come again for the noodles. Not the ice cream.

Took carry out once and physically ate at the restaurant once. Pretty fresh sushi and good options of sake. Salmon was really fresh and sushi had the perfect temperature. Great ambience too.

いらっしゃいませ (Welcome in Japanese). You are greeted when you walk in. Ichi Umi Sushi renamed many times. It used to be called Haru and before that, Hanabi. The Ahi Tower was so good!! It looks beautiful and I was surprised the server would mix it for us. I'm glad she allowed me to take a pic before the mix though We can wrap it in seaweed and it really fills you up. Wildflower sushi roll was also amazing-avocado, tuna, I think spicy mayo? What's not to love?

I've been back here several times since my first review and I love it every time! My last visit, I split the kaisendon with my partner and it was so filling. It's hard to find Hokkaido seafood at just any sushi spot so I was impressed with their selection as well as its freshness. If you're a fan of chirashi bowls, try the kaisendon next time.

Everything in the photo is 10/10 and this is what I order everything I go! Choochoo roll : red toppings are a little spicy Seared scallop, salmon toro, Hamachi toro I have also tried the seafood upon 10/10 and the pork belly(chasu) rice dish 10/10 Service is fast! Busy nights you'll have to wait a little for a table but typically not too bad.

Everything Yates incredible here but my favorite was the tower. The honey wasabi sauce was an unexpected treasure. I almost asked for the tower without it because I don't like spicy stuff but I am so glad I tried it. I live in DFW and I am craving this dish!!!

Super fresh fish and beef, tasty and authentic vinegared rice sushi, warm service and clean environment. Recommend!

A great place for larger parties since they do have a back room to accommodate. It is easy to make reservation here too. I recommend getting their Shiso if you love sashimi. It comes with brussel sprout, agedashi tofu and shrimp with udon salad, 20 pieces nigiri sushi (tuna, salmon, fatty salmon, yellowtail, escolar, sea bass, red snapper, mackerel, albacore, eel) & 32 pieces sashimi combination (chef choice of 8 kinds of fish). I fell in love with their caramelized Brussels sprouts. It was crispy and sweet and perfect at the same time. Definitely coming here again just to order that alone. Another cool thing is that with the fish head, you can asked them to grill it for you and it still taste great! You can see it in the picture I post.

New found Sushi place! The food is incredible and the ambience of the restaurant is very relaxing. Their rolls are large, and were flavorful and filling. My Chicken Teriyaki was so tender you could cut it with a chopstick!

My go to spot for delicious sushi!! I've tried numerous rolls, from classic California to more adventurous specialty rolls and the creative combinations of ingredients never fail to impress!! The staff is always friendly and attentive, I really enjoy coming here with family, very relaxed atmosphere. Plus, the prices are reasonable considering the high quality of the food and service provided.
