I love their pork belly don! It was taken off the menu, but our waitress said I could still order it! Overall, a great experience. Especially our waitress. She was very informative of what was fresh, and service was great! Would recommend this place~

The service and atmosphere was very good. The crazy Irishman roll was super good! The cooked salmon inside was very juicy, and I didn’t expect it to taste so good. The seafood nabeyaki udon wasn’t as good as expected, and the fish, the shrimp, and the scallop didn’t look very fresh or tender. The katsu don was ok, but there wasn’t enough sauce and the meat wasn’t very crunchy. I didn’t expect the egg to be on the pork. The takoyaki is different from the normal ones, they have a different sauce and no fish flakes. I didn’t like it. Also, the portions were pretty big, we came as three people and we almost didn’t finish. Overall, it is ok.

Overall: a decent place to go for a date night (bc that’s more of the vibes imo) if you’re looking to eat Japanese food. Food: safe options to go for are the ramen bowls (either the house or duck flavor) as they’re both tasty. Skip the chicken katsu dish as it just wasn’t worth it and the sauce was a little to BBQ for my taste. The sushi was also really good but for the portions and price, not really worth it. Price: pricier than I’d like but if if you’re wanting a bang for your buck, go for the bigger plates like ramen as they were $16 each. The sushi was only like 10 pieces and should’ve been priced below $15 imo. Service: we got seated quickly but that’s probs because we came after lunch time ish. Our server was nice and our food came out within reasonable time. Atmosphere: I didn’t like all the dim lighting and dark decor as it gave off a more intimate and reserved vibe. Tables seemed to be also a little too close for my liking

Had dinner here with family on new year's day. The food was delicious and the server very attentive. Will definitely recommend this place.

Menu may have been created by a well-trained sushi chef, but the menu is massively asian fusion, nowhere near authentic Japanese. The cuts of Toro were of medium grade, yet, priced as if it was grade 9. In short, lots of sizzle, not much Japanese substance, for top tier prices.

Food was nothing spectacular. Just happen to be local and went for the convenience. I would visit again but the server turned me off. She was rude and unfriendly. She frowned when asked about the types of ingredients as I have allergies to certain ingredients. She seemed agitated so I stopped and ordered something else. I was trying not to be rude in front of my guest but even my friend mentioned how she was rude and unwilling to listen and took off. I spent over $100 for 2 person lunch and found it very distasteful that I spent the money and had to give her tip that she doesn't deserve for such unprofessional behavior. As for the food, I would go back only if I get a different server. I have few friends who had the same service issues which I was told few weeks back and i didn't think much of it. However, now that I too experienced rude and unpleasant services i may have to wait a while until I forget the distasteful encounter. Price and the quality is fairly reasonable like any other sushi restaurants in the area.

📌The restaurant is clean and hygienic, with spacious seating and soft lighting. It is suitable for couples, families, and friends to gather for dinner. 📌Personally, I think the ingredients are average, not as authentic as the sushi in local Japanese restaurants, and the portions of each meal are on the small side, which is a pity. 📌Generally, the quality of the food is good, and the price is on the upper-middle level. If you want to be full, this restaurant may be a little disappointing.

First timer at Azuma. Friday evening dinner. Surprisingly full of young kids, almost every table had 1-2 young kids. Not against kids at all. Decor is dated, bland, COVID features still in place (plexiglass barriers). Service was excellent. Food taste was above average to great. Fried calamari was crunchy but pieces were very small. Adedashi tofu had good taste. Pink Lady roll was excellent. And the fried banana dessert was large enough for 4 shares. We plan to come back for lunch bento box. Prices are reasonable.

I still give 2 star to this restaurant because of the Robata bar, thought the quality has declined so much. Check the photo I updated below: first two photos were took a few days ago, and the last photos were took in August 2015. The first one was the beef tongue Robata. Slices was cut in uneven thickness some were too thick to eat, and also the thick parts were too raw to eat. Compare the beef tongue before they lost the quality in cutting and cooking. The one I ate recently just like a non chewable steak instead of beef tongue. As for the pork belly it was not so disappointed as beef tongue. The fat part in pork belly is fine but the lean meat would definitely stuck between your teeth, they were over cooked. Personally for the Robata, the pork belly was too salty. And the vegts for each Robata items was much less than before. The restaurant seems like renovated recently but I have to say I’m not that happy to eat here vs before. You used to have a good Robata sensei but now the cooking quality has declined so much. After the last try I may delete this restaurant from my Houston’s favorite Japanese restaurants list...

Slow and terrible service. Coming to this sushi spot you might as well just call yourself a loser. If you take anyone on a date here you deserve to be ghosted. Trash establishment.

Subpar sushi - maki rice was watery, yellowtail in maki was ground up, table was sticky and gross, general atmosphere of a chain-type restaurant experience. Staff was nice but definitely not worth it with better options elsewhere..

Noisy. Also, rolls are very well crafted but totally flavorless. Bland! The spicy mayo was like regular mayo out of a jar... and AGAIN everything in the rolls was flavorless, including the shrimp tempura. Good ingredients but not well seasoned and adorned. We were quite disappointed.

A Dangerously Incompetent Experience – Avoid This Place I wish I could rate the food alone, which was admittedly tasty, but the catastrophic service and outright danger we were subjected to completely obliterates any positive aspect of this meal. This was far beyond a simple "off night"; this was a masterclass in negligence and unaccountability. Our experience was defined by one individual: our server, Santo. To call him inattentive would be a generous understatement. He was a menace. His service was painfully slow, but that was the least of our concerns. The critical issue was his complete lack of awareness and care, which directly put my children at risk. In the span of one meal, he nearly spilled scalding hot soup on my young kids and then actually bumped my son with a heavy tray. As a parent, watching a staff member's reckless behavior come so close to seriously injuring your children is absolutely terrifying. When I, understandably upset, addressed this with him, his response was not an apology. It was not concern. It was flippant, dismissive, and defensive. He had the audacity to claim the near-accident was my fault. His demeanor was so erratic and unprofessional that it was alarming. I don't make accusations lightly, but his behavior was so bizarrely irresponsible that it raises serious questions. Hoping for a resolution, we brought this to management. Their response was the final nail in the coffin. They were shockingly lax, dismissive, and failed to treat the situation with the urgency it deserved. Their apathy made it clear that customer safety and satisfaction are not priorities here. They are apparently perfectly comfortable employing staff who endanger children and then blame the parents for it. The food is good, but no meal is worth this level of stress and risk. This establishment has a profound failure in training, oversight, and basic standards of safety. I will never return, and I would strongly caution any family—or anyone who expects to be served by professionals and not hostile hazards—to spend their money and time elsewhere. An appalling, unacceptable experience from start to finish.
