My wife and I went to Mamasan Sushi for lunch and it was AMAZING. The menu was really unique, prices were standard, and the vibe was great. Our waitress was a joy and made the whole experience even better. We started with the spicy garlic edamame, seriously, to die for. Then came the sushi, wow. We got the Volcano and Fantasy rolls, plus the Spicy Volcano special (didn’t even realize it was a special until it came out literally on fire). It was baked and hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had. What really surprised me was how different everything tasted. So many sushi places start to feel the same, but this one stood out. Familiar flavors, but with something extra, just special. We left full, happy, and already talking about when we’ll come back.
Great cozy sushi restaurant in a new location (moved from highway 6 and park row). The owner is very nice, helpful and always greets us with a smile. The staff is attentive, efficient and the food was tasty. We got the spicy edamame, peach sake, dragon roll and the fire volcano roll. Everything tasted great. I have also gotten the bento box to-go in the past which was also very nice.
Came here for the first time today and we will be back! Beautiful and clean atmosphere, friendly staff, timely service, fair prices for what you get, and tasty food! Our server Sami was amazing - super sweet, attentive and I’d love to have her as a server again! Overall we had a great first visit here and recommend it to anyone. Love that their menu tells you every ingredient on each roll.
12/10 Amazing experience here! We always pass by this place and finally decided to give it a try. Samira was AMAZING, she gave great recommendations and was very attentive. We ordered Cream Cheese Puffs, Stuffed Jalapeños, Cali Sunshine Roll, and Ocean Trout Nigiri (If you like Salmon you’ll love this!).
Most amazing sushi hidden gem in Houston! Get the yellow tail carpaccio, astro roll, asian girl, chicken dumplings and toro nigiri! Also, the Mamasan-tini was amazing, like a mojito but fresher! All so good! We’ve even started ordering to go here for our Mahjong girls night! My new favorite sushi place I’m sure to be coming back to for years to come!
On Christmas Eve, I visited this restaurant, and the service was incredibly warm and attentive. The food was also delicious, and it made my child and me feel the festive atmosphere. They were still open on Christmas Day and provided such excellent service; I highly recommend this restaurant. I told my friends about it when I got back, and I'll definitely be coming back often. Finally, I wish all the staff at this restaurant a Merry Christmas!
Absolutely amazing! The food was the best sushi I ever had. The service was very good. The restaurant atmosphere is so sleek and calm. I came here on Valentine’s Day looking for a restaurant without a wait and to my surprise there was no wait. I will 100% be back. 10/10 recommend. For reference, I ordered the lobster roll (long one on white plate) and the Lobster roll, Rock n Roll, and Dragon roll.
