Kyoto Sushi - Corpus Christi

One of the best restaurants I've ever been in my life. Service was phenomenal, especially from our server Kevin. Recommend the yellow dragon roll and the yellow tail nigiri. Never so satisfied with a restaurant experience, will definitely return!!!

Visited Kyoto again tonight. Awesome service and wonderful food. Miso soup was amazing. Dumpling always a favorite. We also tried the avocado bom (pictured) which was so delicious.

I think this is my new favorite sushi place! Large menu- was hard to decide. Everything looked good. I felt like pricing was reasonable. Everything was great, including service!

Large menu with a broad variety of Japanese and some Chinese favorites. It 's not a huge place, less than 40 tables and two servers plus one hostess were swarming busily around, yet service was spotty and a bit unimpressive. There were two Sushi chefs visible at the counter, and a kitchen in back presumably with more general cooks. In our party of four, food arrived for two people an uncomfortable many minutes before it arrived for the third person. After that, the fourth person waited entirely too long for any hint of food, and the first two people were nearly finished by the time he received his order. Any reasonable establishment would have apologized and comp 'd his meal. No hint of this here. I ordered the Bento Box with a Spicy Tuna roll and General Tso 's Chicken. The roll was noticably warm instead of cool, and the chicken was all dried up and crispy way too tough to enjoy, and I left half of it behind. There was a big rush right about 6pm when we were seated, but things ran so slowly that it was after 7pm before we all finished eating. By then, many tables were emptying out. I realize that in July 2022 it 's still difficult to staff service industry jobs, but they did not appear to be in any way short handed. The other three people in our party enjoyed their meals, including the one who was served way late. This is a small business, and the cook who served my plate of dried and crispy General Tso 's obviously wasn 't caring about the quality of the food. Every plate matters, and your reputation is built on each plate served. Roll the dice if you will, and your odds appear to be about 75% for getting good food, but don 't plan on eating at the same time as the rest of your party. I 'm rating Kyoto 3 stars, because that 's about average. . It could be much better.

Went with friends and I had no idea what to order. So I followed their lead and I got the Bento box with sesame chicken, fried rice, miso soup, a salad with a different but delicious dressing, and some type of sushi rolls. I have never eaten sushi rolls and was hesitant to do so, but these were really good. Likewise, the entire meal was delicious and I literally ate everything on my unique, divided tray. I especially enjoyed their miso soup, something I have never eaten before. They also served sliced ginger and that was a new taste sensation, as well. The only downside was I put some of the green paste on a sushi roll and it nearly blew my head off! I didn't realize just how powerful wasabi is... I won't make that mistake again. The waitress was very nice and although the exterior of the restaurant is nondescript, I liked the interior. I live a few minutes away and never realized this little jewel was close by. Recommended.
