Izakaya Hi - Houston

It’s like a hidden spot in the city, not fancy outside but as soon you walked in you feel like a different country, peaceful and relaxing. Nice decoration, cool arts and tasty food.My shrimp tempura udon is on point, the broth is flavorful and the tempura is crunchy. The server is attentive and friendly. I would bring a different group of friends here next time.

I sat at the bar. I really enjoy the ambiance of this place. I had a salmon tartar with a quail egg on top. This place is in my top 5 places to get sushi! Waitstaff is amazing

Actually, I’ll give 3.5 stars if I could.The food was delicious. Especially the shrimp tempura, it’s so light weight but crunchy.The special roll is creative and the combination tastes amazing. I like the slightly chili oil on top of the roll that brings out extra flavor.But I think it’s overpriced cause you can see the roll in the picture , the salmon and advocado are uneven and it cause $18.2However, their recommended tips start at 18% but I don't think the service is worth it.I specifically told the waitress that I like salmon/ tuna and I like spicy mayo. But none of her recommendations have spicy mayo... I asked again and she just answer we can add spicy mayo on any kind of roll. But the special thing about a special roll should be how the chef balance the flavor...it feels like she was not familiar with their menu at all...

The food here has great care given and great seasoning. It's rare that I don't dip my sushi in a little soy. But here I didn't do that at all. The fried calamari was the most tender I've ever had. I'm sure i will always order this when coming here. And those noodles were flavored so well or was hard not to keep eating them even after being full! They also have a few rooms for some private karaoke with a group for gatherings. Great place. Great food. Great time!

Loved their food! They actually have really good HAPPY HOUR deals ! Great service too!
