I live in College Station, sushi here ok, seldom go, but every time I visit Houston I try new Sushi place. Well I have finally found mine.It is a small loction with 6 seats at bar. The menu is quite large, and inventive rolls. I always order shashimi, I asked if I could get octapus, mackeral, and bonito if they had it. Answer-That is very doable. Most sushi resturants say no substitution, or if they do a upcharge, not here. The presentation was nice. I go to take my time a relax and enjoy my fish. There were 3 regulars there, small talk, they introduced me to each other, felt very at home like I was a regular. I had to try a roll, they were so different, the chef and owner Nina, was at the bar. I asked if she had any rolls with octapus and eel that was spicy, she said no but was more than happy to make one for me. She also asked what else I likd to put on it. They wait staff was also good. I noticed the rolls had names like Joyce, special rolls are named after the customer who keep asking for the roll. Fish quality was excellent. I almost did not go because of 1 bad review, this reviewer must have thought they were at the drive in of McPuke. You do not go to sushi location for fast food. I drove 90 miles to go here and will be going next week again. Talking to owner been here 7 years, that says a lot, most resturants do not last that long in Houston.
