We were very pleasantly surprised with our lunch at Kata Robata. The service was excellent, the food was great, and the restaurant was beautiful. House made seaweed salad - A unique seaweed salad that was served with a sesame vinaigrette. It was tasty, but felt a bit pricey for what it was (and the portion). We liked it, but not really at the top of the list for next time. Spicy Soy Ramen - The broth was rich, but we found the soy milk broth to be a bit overpowering. Not the best ramen we had, but it was still quite good. Sushi (Tuna, Sea Bream, Horse Mackerel, Hotate): All were excellent with a nice fish to rice ratio. The sushi rice was excellently seasoned without it being overpowering or too bland Chirashi - an impressive selection of fish over perfect sushi rice. Our selection included 2 pieces of o’toro, chu toro, blue fin tuna, salmon, salmon egg, eel, (1 piece) sea bream, amberjack, striped jack, and egg omelet. For the price, we felt that this was well worth it and it really highlighted the amazing quality of fish. Matcha shaved ice with red bean ice cream: This desert was HUGE for the price! The matcha flavor was excellent and was one of the best shaved ice that I’ve had!

Having celebrated my birthday twice at Kata, I can safely say that this place is something you don’t want to pass on. The service is exceptional from start to finish and the restaurant itself offers a minimalist luxury feel. The black miso cod is one of the best fish dishes I have ever had, and the grilled octopus is just as good. Their sushi is fresh as well. I can’t wait to come back for another celebration or just for a nice meal.

Wow! Such a fantastic Japanese restaurant. Cool vibes...and more importantly delicious food. We had the Texas wagyu sando, chirashi, and the sashimi for two. The highlight/surprise of our meal was when our wonderful server asked if we wanted the shrimp heads, which we assumed to be decorative, fried. What? Obviously the answer is YES! And man, that was really the best!!! And the shaved ice was fantastic! It came with a lychee flavored condensed milk???!!! Amazing. Definitely would go again!
