Amazing vegan sushi - Edit
This is the perfect 100% plant based sushi restaurant you’ve been waiting for! Food is incredible, nice atmosphere and the staff is always so friendly and sweet. It’s perfect for date night, friends or family gatherings. Recent favorites are their okonomiyaki and shiitake roll but honestly you can’t go wrong with anything you order.

Amazing! - Edit
I wasn’t able to snap a photo of the dessert and Cauliflower wings because we devoured it in no time. The drinks are incredible, and the food is even better. The dessert was absolutely divine. This place is now our weekly go-to!

Tasty Rolls...Small Portions - Edit
Cute spot with a nice atmosphere, although it can feel a little cramped at times. The edamame gyoza was okay but not particularly memorable and had a heavier water content than expected. The rolls themselves were tasty, though the portions felt smaller than I would have liked for the price. Overall, it was a good experience — just not quite spectacular.

An Austin Vegan Must - Edit
One of the best in Austin for a reason. As someone who disliked seafood and is still put off by the taste and look of vegan “seafood”, this place is not a problem for me. If you like Asian food come here! The rolls might be the best item on the menu. I’ve been here multiple times and will keep coming back. Great for celebrations.

Great staff and food - Edit
I had the impossible gyoza and the lions mane steak. The lions mane was not marinated in beef juice and had a sweet bbq taste to it. I normally make it with beet juice so it was an interesting combination. The mashed potatoes were fantastic, they made me want to revisit my recipe to bring them up a notch. The broccolini was fantastic too. I didn’t care for the gyoza, I’ve honestly had better.

Good vegan sushi but not the best weve had - Edit
We got the salmon nigiri, tuna nigiri, lotus maki and Manhattan maki and the lions mane stake.
Read moreThe two nigiris didnt have much flavour but were good with the soy sauce and wasabi.
The two makis were definitely delicious but not the best weve ever had.
The lions made was really creative and I personally really liked it but my boyfriend wasn't a fan of the texture. Also the onion rings weren't fully cooked.
It was a decent meal but not our favourite

Excellent vegan sushi - Edit
Nori is a lot of fun and I wish I could teleport all my friends here to try it. The sushi was amazing, they must do some weird magic trick to get the volcano roll tempura to be lightly fried yet not seem like it’s fried at all, the perfect crunch and texture on the outside of that one. Everything I ate was delicious.

WOW!!!!! Absolutely off the charts delicious - Edit
I have had some great vegan or at least animal free Japanese food over the years and this blows it all away by far. Our server was super friendly, the food was top notch and the atmosphere is great.
Read moreChick'n Karaage was very delicious and had a nice glaze on it which maybe not as authentic but was "I want more" tasty. The Mayo sauces for dipping were great as well.
Vegetable Tempura was light and good flavor, I love the onion rings and zucchini the most but everything was on point. Probably some of the best tempura I have had in a long time.
Impossible Gyoza was impossibly good, I am a dumpling addict and I could eat those daily without getting tired of them. The sauce was a perfect accompaniment but the gyoza were perfectly cooked I had to stop myself from eating all of them and share.
Volcano Roll was yummy and would happily get it again but would have loved to have tried some of their other sushi. Zero complaints on it but of the amazing food I had this only went to ten and not eleven.
Yakisoba was just soba-good. Tons of flavor and who doesn't love noodles. We had some leftovers and I was hungry the next day and had it cold and it was still really really flavorful.
Had I not been dining with someone I probably would have done the Katsu Curry because while I make a basic curry myself (using curry bricks) I have always wanted to try something more elevated. However then I would have missed out on the Yakisoba which was outstanding in its class
The Chocolate Cake is the chocolate cake on which all other chocolate cakes should be based on. Everything pales in comparison to this cake. It was the perfect amount (after all that food) and wasn't heavy. I love chocolate but sometimes you get a wedge that is big and full of frosting and has your basic chocolate flavor but is good but not cake perfection like this. It was perfectly moist and the chocolate flavor really came through and tasted like good high quality chocolate.
They had a good selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails and some tasty looking THC stuff which I wish I had gotten to try but we did get a strawberry based NA cocktail which I tried and was really good.
As the famous John Holt/Paragons song (covered by Blondie) would say: "The price is high but I am holdin' on, this food is the number one"
Pros: Delicious food, Attentive and friendly staff, Nice Atmosphere
Cons: Price is high but not out of line for quality, Water was maybe a little off flavor wise

Well Deserved Popularity - Edit
Made reservations for my birthday dinner here, and arrived to a happy birthday note on our table. The staff were super friendly and helpful. We ordered Shiitake Gyoza, Vegetable Tempura, Tofu Katsu Curry, Lions Mane Steak, and Austin Maki Roll. All were perfectly delicious. For drinks, we enjoyed a Berry Mule, a Gin & Tonic, and a Pink Flamingo, which was particularly festive! The menu is unique and creative, going above and beyond standard vegan fare. Next time we're in Austin, we will come back for their Sunday brunch especially for the Okonomiyaki pancake (which is rarely seen at Japanese restaurants in the USA.)
Read morePros: Fancy cocktails, Creative dishes, Excellent services
Cons: Expensive (but worth it), Techno music a little too loud

Vegan Sushi, Ramen, Yakisoba, and More - Edit
The food was tasty and well-seasoned! Even the broth for the ramen had flavor. My non-vegan family thoroughly enjoyed their meals and my son ordered a second roll. If it wasn’t an hour away, I’d go back. I had the Yakisoba and tried my daughter’s ramen. Also ordered the cauliflower wings and got dessert. I don’t remember which sushi rolls they ordered. Everything looked so good and a reservation is a must. This place is popular!
Read morePros: Options, Flavorful, Fast service and reasonably priced
Cons: Only one location , Need more than three desserts

Nice upscale vegan Japanese - Edit
I got the ramen, which was good but I wasn't head over heels for it. Definitely worth a revisit though cause I'll have to try the sushi and other options next time.
