Origami Japanese Cuisine & Sushi Bar

Set the bar REALLY high!. My boyfriend and I have been coming here for years. It's where I first learned how to use chopsticks! They gave me "training" ones my first visit! LOL! It has always been the same staff, they know our name, we know theirs and they make it so you feel you are among friends. I have never had low quality sushi here. Origamis 'worst' sushi day is the 'best' sushi day for most other places. So having said that, they set the bar really high so I always compare when I eat sushi elsewhere (don't know why I bother!). And actually, the price is pretty competitive. The fatty salmon is pure magic. Tastes so buttery and delicious! Worth every penny! I take everyone I know there!…

Best place ever!. I have been going to Origami for over 2 years now, almost weekly. I am always more than satisfied with the service, the food and the atmosphere. When you eat at a traditional Japanese rest. you need to have patience. This is not fast food- if you want that- there is a McD's in the parking lot. If they are busy- be prepared to wait for your food like an adult- as it is all made fresh, by hand and in the order the tickets are submitted. Only an idiot would run into a real restaurant starving and expect to be served their food in 10 minutes. Some items take longer to prepare, and they bring items as they are ready, as is proper.

The food is always delicious, and very fresh. I have eaten there over 100 times at this point, so obviously I think it is great. The prices are lower than most sushi and Japanese places in the Austin area, and I am so happy to say that when I order a vegetarian roll- it does not taste like fish. (Unfortunately I have been to many other sushi places that do not understand that cross-contamination is a bad thing. ) I have always enjoyed every bite at Origami!

They keep the place very clean, and the staff does their very best to keep up with all of the tables. They are usually pretty busy, and always get everyone what they need as soon as possible.

By far this is one of the top 5 restaurants I have eaten at in my life.…

Best Sushi in Austin Area. I've been eating here for the last 6 years and the quality of the food has always been excellent. Whether it's from the kitchen or the sushi bar, it is regularly better than other sushi bars like Musashino and Uchi.

I see other reviewers complaining about the serving size/price or an automatic tip. I've eaten at many sushi bars all over the Austin area as well as other states. The prices at Origami have always been quite reasonable, and the serving portions the same as just about every other place I've been to, larger than most in fact.

With regard to the automatic tip poilcy. There may be one for large parties, but I'd say 99% of the places I've eaten say "Automatic gratuity on parties of 6 or larger." If that's the case here I wouldn't be shocked as some other people seem to be.

In short, go there, tell em Jonny sent you and say hi if I'm there, It's a good bet I will be, it's just that good.…

Best Sushi in Round Rock. Dont let the strip mall location turn you off, this is one of the best sushi restaurants in the Austin area. I have eaten here many times over the last few years and rarely have I not been happy with the experience. The sushi is fresh and the decor is very warm. Seating at the bar, regular tables or on the floor if you want the traditional feel. Good selection of rolls if thats your thing. For those that want cheap, try going for lunch.…
