Top Best Sushi Places & Restaurants in Kingwood

"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."

"Trust is what you want when you dive into the world of eating raw fish. And in Manabu Horiuchi at Upper Kirby’s Kata Robata, Houstonians trust. The acclaimed chef is not only James Beard-nominated, but also part of an exclusive list of U.S. chefs who are certified to handle blowfish (which is poisonous if not prepared correctly)."

"These magically tender cubes of Akaushi beef are after Texas' own heart. Skewered and grilled on the robata after 72... Kata Robata is an elegant restaurant that offers a sushi bar and grill."

"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."

"This city is no stranger to high-end fish, but there’s something special about Chris “Magic Fingers” Kinjo’s traditional sushi. Lauded for the multi-course omakase experience reminiscent of Japan’s sushi masters, MF Sushi’s fresh fish is unrivaled in the city. With deft knife strokes and minimal accents, the focus is wholly on pristine, melt-in-your-mouth fish and shellfish selections you won’t find anywhere else."

"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."

"Just like the great Taylor Swift, this OG spot founded by Yoichi 'Yogi' Ueno over 14 years ago proves that great quality and service “never go out of style."* Forget the hip and trendy; Chef Takizawa’s old school menu of Japanese classics is backed by superb technique and seasonal flavors that keeps Kubo’s name high on the Houston’s sushi hit list. *Our apologies if you now have that song stuck in your head (Just taaaake meeee hoooome!!). Sign up here for our daily Houston email and be the first to get all the food/drink/fun in town. Brooke Vigginao is a Houston writer who is prettttty sure sushi started on a dare."

"Self-proclaimed “second generation” Japanese restaurant, Shun Japanese Kitchen chef and owner Naoki Yoshida originally learned to cook at his family’s restaurant, Nippon Restaurant in Montrose. Today, Chef Yoshida carefully curates one-of-a-kind meals of his own including the likes of Anko wings (made with red bean sauce, mint, fried garlic, and honey pecans), pozole duck ramen (duck confit, pozole verde, charred corn, and egg) and a 40 day-aged pork chop with miso and sweet potato puree."

"Lemon, sliding into a booth decked out with a checkered table cloth to soak up the nostalgia of B.B. Lemon, Benjamin Berg’s homage to both New York and the Gulf Coast. You can enjoy oysters on the half shell, blue crab beignets, clam chowder and burgers til 12 am Mondays through Wednesdays and til 2 am from Thursdays through Saturdays."

"Located in the East Washington Corridor at 1809 Washington Avenue, B.B. Lemon is a sophisticated eatery and bar with classic, straightforward food and cocktails. Choose from one of..."

"My girlfriends and I stop in from time to time and treat ourselves to some delicious chocolate..we feel guilty together, but the place is just too…"

"Of course you know Sprinkles (i.e. some of the best cupcakes…ever), but did you know their ice cream is just as good as their cupcakes, and when you eat it with the cupcakes, it’s a combination that you have to try to understand. It’s quite literally a cupcake sandwich. You pick a flavor of ice cream (I’m a big fan of their salty caramel), then you pick a cupcake, and they serve it like a sundae, but unlike any sundae you’re used to."

"The so-called “living room of Montrose” would be the perfect place to grab a bite alone even if the food were just okay. Luckily, chef Anthony Calleo’s cuisine is really good. Get one of his loaded 12-inch pizzas—we love the smoky Pig & Potato—or his divine Parmageddon, meaty chicken parm inside a crunchy garlic sub roll, with a side of tater tots and a dark beer to match."
