Top Best Japanese Restaurants in Pearland

"At Uchi, the menu (which includes a la carte and tasting options) ranges from stellar sushi rolls (try the Shag roll, with tempura salmon and avocado) to unforgettable Japanese gems like yellowtail with ponzu and thai chili, and kinoko nabe, a mushroom hotpot that will make you a mushroom fan for life. Save room for the fried milk, and skip the cocktails and opt for either sake or wine—the list for both is extensive. This is a place to impress anyone with an affinity for fine Japanese food."

"Solid sushi offerings are a sure bet at casually chic lower Westheimer restaurant Uchi, the famed Austin import. But you’ll also want to try the daily specials (think pork ribs with house fish sauce, Thai chili and green papaya) and cooked dishes here. The playfully interactive hamachi nabe is served tableside."

"Japanese food shines at Uchi - Houston, and so does romance, thanks to a stunning dining environment and a transportive experience. At Uchi, you may feel like you walked into anoth..."

"Kata Robata prides itself on being Houston’s premier sushi and Japanese tapas restaurant featuring an exclusive menu from Executive Chef Manabu ‘Hori’ Horiuchi. When it opened in 2010, Kata Robata changed the face of sushi dining in Houston: blending both traditional and modern Japanese cuisine, the grilled meats, vegetables, and sushi ae prepared with great care and guaranteed to be the freshest they can be. For a signature meal try the chawan mushi, ramen, or donburri, unless you feel like attempting the lobster mac and cheese."

"Despite what we’ve been led to believe, sushi is less about the fish and more about the rice. Proper attention to details like temperature, packing, and vinegar-flavor are just as important as that buttery toro you love so much. And no one pays more attention to detail than the brilliant Chef Manabu Horiuchi, aka Hori-san."

"3764 Richmond Ave, Houston, TX 77046 - tel: 713-621-8628 - Parking can be challenging. Hands down our favorite sushi and Japanese food spot in Houston. Our favorites: vegetable tempura roll, mixed vegetable roll, avocado & cucumber roll, spinach roll, picked radish roll, seaweed salad, fried pickles, and fried bananas (ask for no whipped cream for vegan)."

"This tiny sushi restaurant in Greenway has been praised for years for offering quality eats at very affordable prices. Their menu is always very reasonably priced, but they have even better deals during their sushi happy hour from 3-7 pm Monday-Friday."

"I never went to Roka Akor before the restaurant dining room shutdown — and maybe never would have tried it without the pandemic happening. After all, there are so many homegrown good places to get sushi in Houston — Kata Robata, the new Kokoro in Bravery Chef Hall, MF Sushi — that going to a chain (even a high-end, food centric one) that started in Scottsdale never seemed worth it. The pandemic shutdowns changed that."

"Roka Akor – Houston sits on the Houston River Oak District just along the Loop Boarding Upper Kirby. The restaurant is purely Japanese in spirit but injects contemporary methods in their cooking. Its interior consists mainly of wood elements giving the place a natural and earthy vibe."

"Roka Akor, a global chain of upscale Japanese steakhouses that also offer some mean sushi, opened a sleek and shiny venue in a Houston high-rise in 2017. Among many impressive culi..."

"At MF Sushi in the Museum District, chef Chris Kinjo cranks out raw marvels, using fish flown in regularly from Japan, with elegant movements and superior knife skills. The o-toro (fatty tuna) nigiri, hamachi kama (grilled yellowtail collar), baked lobster tempura and the A5 Wagyu roll with asparagus, onions, shredded chili, and miso tare are all standouts, but part of what makes this high-design spot so special is the omakase (chef’s selection) tasting menu. Reserve a seat at the bar to enjoy a bird’s-eye view of all the action, then sit back and relax while you leave it to the experts to plan your meal."

"Any partner would be impressed with the sleek and elegant MF Sushi. The Museum District’s premiere sushi spot serves up consummate fresh fish in the form of high quality sushi, nigiri and sashimi. The minimal woodsy décor is the perfect accompaniment to excellent service and an original drink menu."

"When chef brothers Chris and Alex Kinjo opened MF Sushi in Houston's Museum District in 2015, it caused a stir among diners familiar with their previous local venue and acclaimed o..."

"Another popular all you can eat sushi place is here at Makoto Ramen & Sushi Bar. However the ramen is not included with the all you can eat price, which is kind of a bummer, but still the sushi is worth it alone!. The all you can eat price basically enables you to get many types of sushi, poke bowls, as well as some simple appetizers like gyoza or chicken karage, which are all so delicious."

"One of the biggest annual attractions in Houston is the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. This is actually a charity event focused on education and science that also provides entertainment. In fact, since the first event in 1932, this event has donated $375 million to a range of charitable causes such as scholarships and research."

"New York City has its annual New Year’s Eve celebration in Times Square, New Orleans has Mardi Gras, and Houston has the world-famous Livestock Show and Rodeo. The event, also known as RodeoHouston, is the biggest exhibition of animals and entertainment in the world!. Obviously, this is an event not to be missed!"

"Ready to put on your cowboy hat, bolo tie, and boots and say “yeehaw” like you really mean it?. For fantastic entertainment in Texas, you need to come to Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. This is like an amusement park for those who love the American West."

"Step into this gallery of chocolate art and try not to order everything. The shop offers a creation popularized a few years ago in Israel: chocolate shawarma, in which dark, milk, and white chocolate are put on a rotating spit, then shaved and stuffed into a thin, crêpe-like wrap for an incredible dessert. But be warned: You’ll also be tempted by the chocolate-drizzled waffles and the pretty homemade truffles calling you from inside the case."

"As far as Insta-worthy desserts and treats go, the Triple Chocolate Crepe from Sleek is a feast for the eyes that’s hard to top. Drizzled with three types of chocolate, it’s almost too pretty to eat."

"Booza—ice cream in Arabic—has been a Palestinian delight for decades, and this family-run shop does it was well as anyone in America. Look for traditional flavors like lemon, rosewater, and ishta (sweet cream). Booza also does sorbet and gelato (almond with salted peanuts for the win), plus banana splits and coffee."

"This ice cream shop in the Galleria area namedBooza has been serving ‘stretchy Mediterranean ice cream’ and family recipes since 1941!. Taste flavors like Ashta with Pistachio, Hazelnut, Cherry Gelato and Mango Sherbet. We guarantee you’ll love it."

"Despite its four area locations, the historic (since 1938!) chain manages to avoid feeling like one thanks to its electric, old-school staff, who are happy to call you by your name and even happier to tell you what to order. Standouts include the chicken-fried steak and eggs, caramel-pecan-banana challah French toast, and corned beef hash. At lunch, the juicy Drug Store Burgers are a reminder that the best examples of the form need not be dressed with foie gras, aioli or artisan greens to be satisfying."

"You’ll be hard pressed to find a native Houstonian who hasn’t had a delicious breakfast from Avalon Diner at one point or another, whether in River Oaks, Stafford, Kirkwood and beyond. Famous since 1938, Avalon draws super long lines, so be prepared to wait. Get ready for all the tasty traditional dishes, done right: corned beef hash and eggs, migas, eggs sandwiches."

"Go to this Houston institution for its eggs, sausage and pancakes, challah french toast and old-fashioned milk shakes and malts. Avalon Diner, which once operated along with Avalon Pharmacy, has been serving up true greasy spoon fare in River Oaks since 1938. The drugstore closed in 2008 but the diner beloved by generations is still going strong."
