"The lesser-known sibling of Houston’s acclaimed Azuma Group (Kata Robata and Katami), Soma Sushi is an oft-underrated sushi restaurant. While you may not see famed chef Manabu “Hori” Horiuchi behind the counter, the restaurant maintains the same level of service and quality of fish that the Azuma Group holds standard. After being open for over a decade, it may not feel as scene-y as its sister restaurants, but it’s just as reliable for a sushi sampler, a piping hot bowl of ramen, or simply a bottle of sake at the bar." - Brianna Griff
"Go for the sushi, but save room for the ramen at this trendy Washington Avenue sushi bar. Along with the usual suspects — kanpachi ceviche, vegetable tempura, Japanese barbecue pork ribs, and its signature rolls, Soma offers a variety of ramen bowls, including a clam- and lump crab-loaded seafood ramen and a spicy miso ramen with fried pork belly." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Ramen gets a Texas twist at Soma Sushi, where a tonkotsu base is topped with barbecue pork belly, corn, shiitake, and more. Miso ramen is also on the menu, spiked with habanero and chili powder." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Soma Sushi in the Washington Corridor neighborhood provides a bougie environment for you to enjoy your ramen in. There’s a small battalion of ramen available for you to choose from, but the one you should go for is the spicy miso ramen, loaded with fried pork belly, menma, and a heap of chili powder. Put on your finest threads, sit at the opulent bar with a spicy bowl of tsukemen and a whiskey-based cocktail at your side, and remind yourself that even the fancier spots can have ramen worth going out of your way for.
