Sushi Robata Dallas Reviews
If you are looking for a nice local sushi spot I highly recommend this location. The service is always nice, it is a bit quaint but is always busy. The sushi is always fresh and very reasonably priced. I absolutely love the salmon skin as a nice appetizer. The shopping center it is located in isn’t anything special, but this place really makes it something to consider visiting. Overall if you like quality sushi I would highly recommend.
Don’t let the facade fool you, this place is a hidden gem. My husband and I have been enjoying Sushi Robata for over a decade. We now live out of town but still make the drive to celebrate special occasions. We have truly enjoyed everything we’ve ever ordered and the service is almost always fantastic. Our favorite server is TK (and the roll named after her is amazing!) Definitely make a reservation on weekends, as it gets really busy. Even with a reservation you might have a bit of a wait, which has never bothered us, it makes me happy when small restaurants are busy. :) If they offer you a sushi bar seat, say yes, the sushi chefs are so kind. We highly recommend Sushi Robata!
Tasty food. Wide selection (sushi and sashimi, bento, noodles, rice dishes, fried and grilled dishes, appetizers, dessert, alcohol). Great customer service and staff. Good portion sizes at good prices. Have dined in multiple times and will continue to do so! [Dec. 29 Update] Added photos from recent dinner. Still 5-stars.
You cannot see how fancy inside from outside. There are so many small appetizers such as Takoyaki, gyutataki, agedashidofu, etc. some of meals you cannot find in TX, very rare and traditional taste meals you can have bite at Sushi Robata. Also price is very good price. Each appetizer is around 3-5 dollars, and taste is amazing. They have special menu almost everyday changing, and chef made it. A lot of choices. Even sake, shochyu has so many different varieties!! Sushi is always fresh, little small piece you expect, chef is knowledgeable japanese. from special menu, some fish is from Japan, taste just amazing !! You can enjoy “Omakase” “Kaiseki” here. Since I came here, I am big fun of sushirobata. I JUST LOVE THIS PLACE !! You can have 25-30 people big party here, so good for party. 2 rooms are half private room. highly recommend!
Sushi Robata is a really great place for quality sushi. I visited there today for lunch and was more than impressed. The service is top notch and they really take good care of you during your visit. The Sushi quality is excellent and they serve really fresh fish. I was also very impressed with the atomosphere in the dining room, it was very clean and very welcoming. They offer a lot of good lunch specials and bento box combos. I want to come back for dinner sometime because it looks like a great place to bring friends for a great dining experiance.
02/21/24: I had the chirashi lunch which came with miso soup and salad. Not bad for $23 plus tax. It was filling for me 👍 fish was fresh and sushi rice was very yummy. If you get sushi at lunch, it can get pretty pricey! I got sushi c "sushi was just ok", uni "was ok", and yellowtail belly "this was def the best". Next time I come, I'll get the lunch bento box.
This used to be my favorite sushi restaurant. No more. Went for lunch and the dumplings and sushi were average, not great. Atmosphere was dated. Server was nice but when I told her I had only ordered be order of dumplings, not two, her supervisor screamed at her audibly, which was embarrassing for everyone. Won’t be returning. Too many other better options.
Other than the salmon and yellowtail, the quality of the sashimi and sushi was quite disappointing, especially the tuna, which lacked freshness and flavor.The sushi combo didn’t feel like a good value for the price. Also, the selections in the sushi combo was underwhelming considering the price. For what we paid, the sushi combo felt a bit disappointing. It definitely felt overpriced. As shown in the picture the presentation was nice. However, I’m not sure if I’d return.
We tried this place because we heard good things about the yakitori. We came a little late so it wasn’t super busy, but we weren’t impressed with most of the food. The chicken hearts were pretty lukewarm by the time we got them and the regular chicken was okay. The chicken with negi was our favorite. We liked the ebi fry and the fried oysters. The hamachi kama was pretty good too. The udon was okay and so was the sushi. Service was fine. It just wasn’t memorable.
I tried Japanese Sushi Robata and ordered the Dallas Sushi Roll and Tonkatsu Noodles. The sushi roll was good- decent. But the tonkatsu noodles were honestly the worst I’ve had in the U.S. I’m not even comparing it to authentic versions from Japan, just other tonkatsu I’ve tried around America, and this one really missed the mark. The broth had no depth, and the overall flavor just wasn’t there. The chef was very warm and nice though. Great sushi, but I wouldn’t recommend the tonkatsu noodles.
The restaurant added a mandatory 20% gratuity for two people without any prior notice on the menu or from the staff. We only learned about it when the bill arrived. When we asked about the undisclosed charge, the restaurant insisted they had the right to add it regardless of disclosure. This kind of non-transparent billing practice is very unusual and disappointing. Posting this review simply to inform other customers to check their bill carefully.
I visited Sushi Robata for dinner tonight, and the experience was quite disappointing. From the moment we arrived, everything felt disorganized. We waited a long time to be seated, it seemed like the manager assumed there wouldn’t be many customers after 7:30 PM. We eventually walked into the dining area ourselves, and only then did the manager finally arrange a table for us. The manager first led us to a very small table right in front of the restroom. I politely asked if we could switch to a slightly bigger table so my boyfriend and I could sit side by side more comfortably. She said we couldn’t because she needed to save those tables for other guests, or we could sit at the bar instead. However, the restaurant was only half full when we arrived, and even by the time we finished eating, there were still plenty of empty tables. The manager’s attitude was quite dismissive and unprofessional. We ordered several sushi dishes and noodles, which clearly wouldn’t have fit on the bar counter anyway. Overall, the service was very disappointing. I expected much better hospitality from the Korean manager. I would not want to go back to this restaurant ever again.
