Fukumoto

I was extremely skeptical going to a sushi restaurant coming from the PNW, but alas, I was CRAVING white rice after feeling like a bottomless abyss from my wild birthday celebrations and way too much BBQ and y’all — this place EXCEEDED any exceptions I had and more. The service was absolutely off the charts phenomenal. The hostess that seated us was pleasant. Our server was incredible, helpful, asked about allergies, got me a separate gluten free menu that labeled vegan, vegetarian and dairy free options, she refilled our water without asking, and split our check without making a request (it was me and my best friend)! We sat at the bar where they made the food in front of us and they had the nicest cook/employees that were catering to us too (and also very attractive to look at lol). I was shocked, SHOCKED y’all at how fresh and tasty the cucumber roll I got was and how heavenly the rice tasted. Even my non-gluten free friend was amazed and loved her Ube desert! I will literally come back to Austin just to come back here. I am still drooling over and dreaming of the freshness of the ingredients and how scrumptious it was; and the service absolutely topped it off to make this an exceptional experience. My only regret is not taking photos to share, but this review will have to do to make sure others try out this gem! Thank you!

The meal was absolutely amazing. It truly gave me an authentic Japanese experience, just like when I visited Tokyo. The food was incredibly delicious, and the service was excellent. They were very accommodating and took care of my gluten allergy. If I lived nearby, I would definitely be a frequent customer.
