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

As always the fish was so fresh and delicious. Each dish was so creative and paired with seasonal fruits like fig and pear with gooseberries. Outstanding service as I was celebrating my birthday and the service could not have been any better. I cannot wait to return!

We reserved a swing seat table and ended up being seated at a regular table because our reserved table was no longer available. And then we ended up having to wait 15 minutes in an attempt to get our table and eventually were seated at a spot that was not the one we reserved. Our waitress barely checked on us even though the restaurant was full of empty tables. I would not come back.
