Reviews
Place was clean, presentation on most items were good but need some quality control.
Its really a 50/50 on stuff and I highly recommend you grab one small piece and then come around for seconds.
Some stuff either tasted off like the seaweed salad which tasted like it was seasoned with dawn soap. Sushi was cut CHUNKY like as it was fruit. You got overseasoned crab legs that taste like Poseidon sweat.
Oyster sizes were HUGE but they washed out the juices so there were little to no flavor but the preparation on whoever opened them deserves a raise.
The deep fried blue crab that I could eat plates full of it. Same with the tempura.
Get the tiramisu. Its good, not dry at all and coffee and cream was well balanced.
Honestly its a coin toss here.
If the price was $2-5 cheaper then it would be fine in by book but at $28.99 a person its a hard sell.
UPDATE—
They’re back!!
Not quite the same, but absolutely close enough.
Weekend lunch buffet – $16.99., weekday $14.99.
Standouts—
Octopus balls were real good.
Fried noodles were seasoned nicely and texture not beat to death.
Really loved the Tonkotsu soup.
Differences—
Didn’t see the cooked crab legs—which is fine. It was too much work to eat them.
No specialty ice cream (red bean, green bean)—just strawberry, chocolate and vanilla.
Tempura shrimp (greasy) and green beans (soggy) not as fabulous as before.
Nice fresh flowers/plants.
Everything was so fresh and so clean, clean!
We’ll definitely be back.
PREVIOUSLY—
Good news—
Tokyo is back with the same amazing tempura shrimp and perfectly cooked green beans.
Bad news—besides the same tired decor, that’s where the similarities end.
Disclaimer—this is the only place I have eaten/tried hotpot. And I realized.I’m not a fan.
For $28 (weekend buffet ) and $14.99 weekday lunch buffet – you, too, can sit at a table and basically make your own soup until you just get tired of doing so.
No thanks.
Select broth, spice level, proteins and they bring them to you.
Get up to pick items (veggies, etc.) to add.
Sadly, the broths were flavorless. Even the spiciest was just oily, not even hot.
It took more than two years for Tokyo to come back from the pandemic.
Every week, I would drive by hoping they were revamping or working on something fabulous.
Nope.
You’ll see even the same plastic flowers in the same exact place.
It’s like they don’t even care.
I m nowhere near the place for lunch- those fabulous green beans and shrimp tempura.
Hopefully, their hotpot game has stepped up, as we went their first weeekend they opened.
Each plate felt like a chapter in our family’s history. We piled shrimp tempura, crispy on the outside and yielding beneath, onto mountains of fluffy white rice – a tradition that started more than a decade ago for the perfect comfort food. Our family, ever seafood enthusiasts, gravitated towards the glistening sashimi and japanese sushi rolls, each slice a work of art.
But what truly elevates Tokyo Japan isn’t just the food (though that’s undoubtedly a star!). It’s the service. The waitstaff, like old friends, anticipate our cravings and refill our water glasses before they’re empty. They remember aunt’s love for sesame balls and sneak her a bowl of the freshly cooked sweets with a wink. It’s these little touches that make us feel cherished, not just customers.
So, if you’re ever in Houston, seeking a taste of both culinary excellence and familial warmth, look no further than Tokyo Japan Sushi Buffet.
There’s a rectangular island in the middle that serves sushi and seafood. Another area on the back has a few select items that are interesting to get. I got two of each and tasted one each with and without soy sauce/wasabi. There are people who make the sushi in front of you when needed so that is good to see. The texture and flavors of all the sushi I tasted are great! Nothing seemed off about anything. Great expectations.
I got a second plate that consisted of: Takoyaki, grilled shrimp, mussels (one has cheese and garnish? while the other one I got from the rectangular island), beef, and frog legs that I rarely try. The crab meat on the bottom of the image my parents helped me open. You would have to ask the waiters/waitresses for a crab opener.
The takoyaki had a nice color to it and once you bite, the texture seems off. I expected the texture to be fluffy but it was like a creamy liquid. It is probably the filling. The flavor of the takoyaki is good overall.
The beef has amazing texture, seasoned well, and the flavor has a nice garlicky, beefy taste. Just a bit oily since it was rested for awhile on the buffet plate. I bet it would’ve tasted way better when it was cooked before I got some.
The frog legs are crispy with a nice bite. Salty and taste like chicken. I rarely eat frog legs but these are great to whoever don’t eat frog legs or scared to eat.
The grilled shrimp is crispy but very salty to my liking. One of my family members like it though, just not my preference. The mussels are mediocre at best. The crab legs are long and the meat is sweet, love it!
I tried the raw oysters with lemon and it didn’t taste fresh. Had to keep one under the napkin unfortunately since I can’t eat the second one.
Overall, 4/5. I would go here as a recommendation from anyone, but won’t go here as often since it’s a bit expensive for 31 bucks per member on a Sunday.
I would give it one more shot during dinner time.
