About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Charming
Great for happy hour

Lucky Robot is the first sushi restaurant in Texas to partner with the James Beard Foundation and Monterrey Bay Aquarium sustainability programs. We are committed to healthy oceans.

Our kitchen is lead by two time Ora King Finalist Jay Huang. Our food is Modern Nikkei cuisine, a balance of Japanese cuisine accentuated with the fragrant chilies and aromatic spices of Latin America.

Prime dry-aged fish is here. A tradition started over 200 years ago in Tokyo and now the first in Texas. Prime Dry Aged Fish will allow you to taste the fish in its purest form. Breaking down tissues and sugars allows new flavors and textures that bring the fish to its cleanest, most tender form. Age = Flavor.

For parties of six or more, please see our Large Party Information under Contact at our website (https://www.luckyrobotatx.com/).

Please note: Last seating for Omakase Experiences are 30 minutes prior to close

My 14 year old son and I went last night and our favorites were the wagyu hot rock, spicy edamame and spider roll. We look forward to trying the ramen next time!

The Sakura vibes were cool and the seating was interesting and fun. Services was great and the food was very good. The sushi was good but the best parts were the wagyu fried rice, bao buns and dumplings. Drink menu was a good mix of Texas meets Japan. Value was spot on.

No wonder they won a James Beard award, the food is outstanding! Fresh ingredients, creative menu and the staff is attentive yet gives you your space. They went above and beyond. Look forward to going back and having the brussels sprouts, dumplings and sushi. They also have vegan items. Fun for a date night or getting a group together.
