One would assume that a new sushi restaurant in the upcoming trendier section of downtown Austin would be a sure-thing. If so, one would be assuming very wrong. Their sushi rolls are horrible -- the rice is always either way under or overcooked, and the seaweed is always chewy and of strange texture. At least the fish is of decent-enough quality, although nothing to write home about. The edamame is the best thing they offer on the food menu. If you're looking for a fancy fusion drink and some edamame, then this is your place. Otherwise, move two blocks east and one block south to Kenichi.
Pros: Location, Curb Appeal, Proximity to other nightlife.
Cons: Sushi chef has no clue.
