Located at the Mekong Center in the midtown Houston area, Fukuoka Sushi Bar and Grill boasts a welcoming traditionally decorated atmosphere with delicious taste.
Recommended by one of our great family friends, we indulged to a short trip to Japan taste.
The Chef and his sue, quietly prepared the soon to be delighted goodies. While the servers softly glide through the small but well clean and organized restaurant floor.
We observed a variety of wines and sake, yet we saved them for our next visit.
Definitely the beginning of a new tasteful journey with Fukuoka sushi Bar and Grill for us.
Summary: Delicious food and attentive service.
I was craving some sushi the other day, so I pulled up Google Maps. There are two places close to me: a typical take-out deli sushi place in the tunnels and Benihana (which is well overpriced considering their declining quality). Fukuoka popped up as an option, but it is a thirty-one minute walk. I still considered it, since the restaurant bears the name of my grandmother's birthplace. I was thinking that if the place is nice, I would take her sometime; I don't want to take her out for dinner and say, "this place is named after where you grew up, and it sucks." The implications of that. There are no worries, however, as this place was pretty great.
Despite being there for lunch, I ordered the dinner version of the Chirashi Bowl. I will say that I wish the selection of fish had more variety, but what I got was still in fact delicious. The fish tasted fresh, and I absolutely adored the cucumbers. Better still was the rice. As of lately, most restaurants have been neglecting the process of seasoning their rice; the seasoned rice is an integral part of chirashi (you wouldn't build a bookcase and say that the shelves are optional). Fukuoka has provided, by definition, a bowl of chirashizushi, and I have missed such pleasure for a long time.
The sweet tea had reached the saturation point of sugar, and it was great. Sometimes I crave a sweet tea that delivers on its name; but if you (presuming that anyone has even gotten to this point of the review) don't care for overly sweet drinks, you may want to order the tea half-and-half.
The staff was very attentive. They took my order promptly, and they ensured that I did not have an empty cup.
From my brief experience, I highly recommend Fukuoka. I will be taking my grandmother there in the near future, and she's the judgmental one in the family.
We found this place recently and have been here 5 times already. The food is always prepared with care and the staff goes above and beyond to make sure we are happy with our meals. The vegan and vegetarian options available leave me more than satisfied! Highly recommend 😊
Everything was amazing and the sushi was so good I highly recommend the cowboy was so amazing and the second roll I asked them to custom make❤️🔥
Small restaurant with great service.
The lunch special menu is totally with it. I had three maki rolls from the lunch menu. The Houston Roll was good. The fish were fresh. The roll was wrapped tight and neat. The Philadelphia Roll was typical. Good and fresh. As for the Tiger Eye roll, it was my favorite. The flavors were great. The roll was warm, mild spicy, and the soy paper wrap made it perfect. Miso soup came complimentary with the rolls. Miso soup tasted good. I also had cold sake to go with my meal. Yum!
Just ate here for the first time this week and can definitely say I plan on coming back. I went during happy hour, and it had some great deals. Went with a group and we were all happy with our meals.
Good sushi and great staff! Our one year-old girl was being whiny but they were very patient about us and even gave our little girl some candies to help comfort her. We appreciate it very much!
Made reservations for my friends daughter's birthday and they were able to accommodate our big group of 13 people. The place is very small but they do have good seating arrangements inside and out. The service was AWESOME and the drinks and food came out quick. I enjoyed everything, the food was fresh and had a lot of flavor. They were also very sweet in providing my friends kiddo with complementary Mochi, YUM!!!
I had a lovely time here at Fukuoka. The wait staff was very attentive. One of the waitress (I think her name was Suzanne) continually gave us amazing recommendations that were so delicious. Highly Recommend!
Delicious! I love the chicken katsu curry here. Everything is good though. Food comes out quickly and it’s really well priced. Highly recommend this super underrated spot!
