About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
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 experience at Lucky Robot was fantastic. The staff were friendly and attentive, creating a relaxed and welcoming environment from the moment I arrived. The sushi chef was precise and clearly experienced—every piece was expertly prepared. The sushi was soft, fresh, and flavorful, with just the right amount of spice. The Kingu Sake Toro (king salmon belly) was absolutely perfect—melt-in-your-mouth quality and a standout of the meal. The atmosphere is stylish without being pretentious, and everything from the service to the presentation felt thoughtfully done. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending Lucky Robot to others.

    We had a combo of items from the brunch and regular menu. Amazing dumplings, hot rock, sushi rolls, and buns. Very interesting flavor profiles for each dish. Will eat here again.

    We sat at the sushi bar and they were so attentive with great recommendations! Everything we ate was delicious!! They were also super accommodating of my gluten allergy. Standouts were the ceviche, C-3PO roll, and a magical pork and tuna bite at the end. Special shout outs to Kevin behind the sushi bar and Liam our waiter for great service.

    Food and atmosphere were great! I do think the price point is a tad high for some of their dishes, but overall a great experience with a lot of variety.
