If you go to dine at sushi japon expect to eat a delicious meal. Everything is well prepared. The service is wonderful and everyone is friendly and attentive. It is a great place to bring family & friends. Both the sushi and the habachi grill foods are out of site or should I say out of this world!
Pros: food and service

This place is absolutely fabulous. The combination of food, service and atmosphere makes it my favorite restaurant. The owners are incredible. They are extremely friendly and have worked very hard to provide the best food and service in Austin. I applaud them for being friendly and very accomodating, which seems to be lacking in so many restaurants these days. Once you go there, the other sushi restaurants in town will seem to disappear.

I have been to many Japanese restaurants in various locations around the world. This is by far my favorite, both in Teppanyaki and in flavor. Their sushi is amazing, especially the Fatty Tuna role (and it's reasonably priced at 2 pieces for $8, quite often it's $10 per piece). Usually most restaurants that do show-cooking are flavorless, but even my wife who doesn't like meat ate every bit of steak/chicken served to her. Also, the staff are very courteous and attend to your every need. Definitely try the peach sake if you get a chance.
Pros: Just About Everything
Cons: The only con I can think of is that the restaurant isn't as big as you'd think it is.

We took the kids to sushi japon steak house for a special outing and they absolutely loved it. The chef entertained them and they absolutely loved the food. All we heard for days after was how good it was and when were we going back. A great place for kids or for a romantic meal... I would highly recommend it.
Pros: excellent food
Cons: none

Our whole family went (12 in all) to celebrate my 12 year old son and my mother -in-law's birthdays. We had a blast. We were entertained by the wonderful chefs and the food was excellent. Our waitress was so attentive, we didn't want for anything. The quantness of the resturant was very appealing and even though we had a large party, it was easy to see and talk to everyone. The food was delicious and the service is unbeatable. The menu "seems" a little pricey BUT what you get for money is unbelievable. We originally had reservations for kobe's but friends highly recommended sushi japon Steakhouse and said they'd never go back to the "other place". I'm with them. We've found a new family resturant and can't wait to go back again
Pros: great tappan style food and service
Cons: nothing

I have been to Sushi Japon a few times for an after-work snack at the sushi bar and always found the atmosphere pleasant and the service very nice. The sushi chef is always the same guy and is nice to talk to, along with the servers. Tonight I went with a date and again it was an excellent experience. We started with some Edamame and the excellent Gyu Tataki appetizer, which is thin slices of seared (rare) beef served in a delicious ponzu sauce. Sort of like steak sashimi - it was great! We got a bottle of cold sake since they actually have a good selection at the bar. The server was knowledgeable about the selections and recommended a bottle, which was from California and was good enough. For sushi, we tried the Kevin's Special Roll - asparagus tempura and masago inside, topped with lightly seared tuna, lemon zest, and spicy sauce. This is an excellent roll, one of the best in town. We tried several kinds of nigiri sushi including Sake Toro, Unagi, Toro, Anago, and Hamachi Toro (was not on the menu but the server told me about it). The toro was amazing, as I would expect at the $9/piece current market price. The sake toro was fresh and delicious, which is great at only about $5/2pc. All of the fish was delicious, the cuts were very generous, and the prices are very reasonable for fresh, quality fish. The service was excellent, very attentive, and our server seemed very interested in how we enjoyed everything, recommendations for our next visit, etc. Dinner came to about $90 for 2 people including a $15 bottle of sake. Overall, pretty reasonable for this caliber of food and service.
Don't let the frontage road location scare you away. The service and food are top notch. This will now be one of my first choices for good sushi in Austin. A+
Pros: Great food, service, price, atmosphere
Cons: Frontage road location may scare people away

My boyfriend and I went on sunday night for a birthday dinner. We ordered sashimi/sushi platter for two and it was amazing. the fish was fresh, the presentation was great, and an interesting/impressive variety. We were serviced by a very attentive and friendly server, and we really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. Everything about/in the restaurant was authentic - this is definitely our new favorite sushi spot!
Pros: Great food and atmosphere
Cons: nothing

I ran across Sushi Japon which can be seen while driving up I-35 North past Rundberg.
I order 2 pieces each of the Hamachi, Maguro, Unagi, and 1 each of Tobiko and Fatty Toro. The Toro was a tad expensive but that was to be expected. - market priced at $9 each. I then ordered a glass of plum wine.
Plum wine: Disappointingly too 'red' and sweet.
Nigiri sushi were very unfresh. The $9 toro was very, very unfresh and I only took a small nip at it. The seawood covering the tobiko, etc were chewed and chewed and chewed but I just couldn't manage to chew it enough to swallow and digest. So, I discretely spat it into my napkin.
They may be great in other areas but their Nigiri on that particular evening left a lot to be desired. So, I decided to pay my $35 bill and went to Mama Fu's Asian House since my hunger was even remotely satisfiedl
p.s. I should have ran out of the joint as soon as I saw the sushi chef and the food preparer scrutinizing a slab of fish and the sushi chef finally deciding to wrap it into plastic and discard it. He should have done that with all of the fish at the sushi bar and called it an evening.
