Great Food, great service. Best sushi I have tried around the cibolo/schertz area. Dishes are a work of art. Highly recommend it!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Great Food, great service. Best sushi I have tried around the cibolo/schertz area. Dishes are a work of art. Highly recommend it!
This new Japanese/sushi spot is such a great addition to the Schertz area. It’s small, cozy, and very authentic, with a relaxed vibe that keeps the focus on the food. The fish quality is immediately noticeable and easily beats any all-you-can-eat sushi restaurants. Everything tastes fresh, clean, and well cared for. The price point is very reasonable as well, which is a plus! The traditional Japanese dishes are excellent too. The takoyaki and fried octopus were delicious, and both the chicken and pork katsu were perfectly fried and served with a fresh side salad, ginger dressing, and katsu sauce. There’s still a lot on the menu I’m excited to come back and try. Best of all, it’s amazing to have sushi at this level right down the road. I’d usually have to drive 25–40 minutes to San Antonio or New Braunfels for comparable quality. If you’re into high-quality fish and authentic Japanese food without the long drive, then I would definitely give this place a try! I’ve already been back several times since it’s opened, so so so happy we have this here!

If you are looking for a good sushi spot in Shertz/Cibolo I think I have what you are looking for. The salmon Nigiri was amazing. Melt in you mouth with a nice BIG piece of fish. Do I want Blue Fin tuna? Yes please! The spicy salmon and avocado roll was delicious. And so was the scallop Nigiri. They used fresh scallops instead of cooked which is great. A lot of places like to use cooked scallops which I don't like as much. My wife had the tonkatsu chashu ramen. She enjoyed it very much. The broth was really delicious and creamy. This place is where the old Q-Sushi used to be which was a regular spot for me. I must say I really like that they kept what was good about Q-Sushi and added a few new menu items that make this place even better. It's hard to find good sushi in the San Antonio area but this small spot is worth visiting. My wife used to skip going to the previous place because she doesn't like sushi. But with the addition of ramen and other non sushi items has made this into a place we can enjoy together.
