Sushi by Scratch Restaurants: Dallas

  4.7 – 118 reviews   • Sushi restaurant

Social Profile:

This eatery from Chefs/owners Phillip Frankland Lee and Margarita Kallas-Lee is no ordinary omakase spot. The nigiri are not just supremely finessed but also infused with original touches—like the dab of sweet corn “pudding” and sourdough breadcrumbs that coat slices of hamachi. Even traditional pairings become transcendent with his house-fermented soy sauce. The iconoclastic vibe extends to the beverages, including cocktails, sake, and beer. Despite such originality, this bar does indeed adhere strictly to one tradition: a mini counter with seating for just ten to ensure a deeply personalized experience. Your time here is bound to pass in a blissful haze of convivial chatter. – The Michelin Guide

Sushi By Scratch delivered what can only be described as a sublime experience. Chefs Cris and Dohnovan curated an incredible experience where every bite felt thoughtful, nuanced, and creative. They struck a perfect balance between honoring the fish, allowing it to be the star of each bite, while simultaneously adding a modern culinary flair with their unique use of sauces and garnishes. This is one of the top omakase experiences in Dallas, and in a city full of options, and absolute must.

It’s called an EXPERIENCE for a reason! This was one of the most delightful things I have ever done. The passion, knowledge and care of each member of the staff (Cameron, Sienna, Donovan and Manuel) took the flavors and the fun of the dinner to a whole other level.
I had lots of questions about the process, how things are traditionally done, the point of the fan and even the explanation about the wasabi and the music playing. It was just fantastic. We actually got sad when we realized how far we were in the experience and that it was almost over.
10/10 – would recommend.
Sundays and Mondays are the best days to go!
If you love sushi, even if you just like it, do yourself a favor and book this for yourself!

My reviews typically highlight photos to really get an idea of the ambiance, cuisine, and drinks. However, Sushi by Scratch is so unique and the lighting is not designed for photos – it’s designed for people to forget about everything else except the curated experience at an elevated level even from the start as you find the secret door in a regular hotel hallway…. And that’s exactly what your time will look like.

Yes, I love high-end sushi as you know from my other reviews and I absolutely give Sushi by Scratch my enthusiastic endorsement – great food, fun experience and unique. It’s a small number of people seated with you and everything is tailored to a nice, intimate experience with your staff while enjoying very high quality sushi. So many courses, so much attention to detail in careful presentation with lots of flavor compliments to enhance each bite!

As for the cost? If you just get the dining experience and water, you’ll still have a good time but I say splurge a bit – get some cocktails or a pairing flight, pop for the extra courses at the end – have some fun! It’s sushi done splendidly!

Tell the GM, Beau Taylor, that Tait says hello 🙂

Intimate atmosphere a seat about maybe 8 to 10 people .
very much a speakeasy for great sushi .. is on the upper floor of a hotel and it feels like you’re walking into a hotel room. You’re greeted in the front and guided to the back where the sushi chef prepares their daily menu quality was of course amazing.!
Service was also great !
It’s Omakase but you can add on à la Cart at the end.
I don’t drink so food alone it was a little over $300 by myself .. it was definitely an experience but you can probably find the same quality sushi at a slightly lower cost

Get there early, the valet car line at the Adolphus was extremely long and difficult. Restaurant is on the 8th floor behind a subtle door.

Sushi was absolutely excellent and a stand out amongst sushi restaurants in the United States.

The chefs were absolutely amazing. Not only were they knowledgeable, but they were so friendly and inviting. We thoroughly enjoyed celebrating a birthday there, and they celebrated with us fully. The food is impeccable— but we would come back for the chefs every time. Thanks so much!!!

Me and my significant other couldn’t have asked for a better experience! If you’re looking for an Omakase experience, this is the place to be. The 17-course meal from start to finish was unlike any other flavor. Every piece delivered the most unique flavors! If you’re looking for a very intimate dining experience, this is the place to be at

Nestled discreetly inside the Marriott, Sushi by Scratch Restaurants feels like a hidden gem—a speakeasy with no signage, making the discovery all the more rewarding. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported into a breathtaking environment that blends elegance with intimacy.

The sushi here is nothing short of phenomenal. The fish, flown in daily, is as fresh as it gets, ensuring every bite is an explosion of flavor. Texas may not be known for sushi, but this spot will make you rethink that entirely.

Whether you’re planning a romantic date night or hosting a team dinner, Sushi by Scratch is the perfect choice. The sake selection is impressive and thoughtfully curated, complementing the meal beautifully. And the staff? They’re incredibly kind, attentive, and passionate about delivering an unforgettable dining experience.

A word of advice: reservations are a must. Their limited hours and exclusive vibe mean tables fill up quickly. This isn’t just a meal—it’s an experience you won’t want to miss.
