At Little Sakana, it's more than all you can eat sushi – we're devoted to a dining experience that blends quality with community. From our attentive staff to our carefully curated menu, every aspect of your visit is designed to exceed your desires and create lasting memories of remarkable AYCE dining.
We recently dined at Little Sakana in Katy, TX, and it was an outstanding experience! The friendly yet professional service made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The staff was attentive and eager to ensure we had everything we needed, which really enhanced our meal.
The sushi quality was exceptional—each piece was fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The variety on the all-you-can-eat menu is impressive, allowing us to explore different tastes and combinations.
The restaurant's ambiance is another highlight; the space is beautifully designed, creating a welcoming and relaxing environment. We truly enjoyed our time there and can’t wait to return for another fantastic meal. Little Sakana has definitely made a lasting impression!

Great new ayce spot in Katy! Definitely the best ayce spot in Katy imo. Very modern atmosphere with quality nigiri. The entire staff was also wonderful and very kind, literally had someone open the door when we were entering and leaving. Ky Lan was our server and did a great job. There were also others serving that were helpful with pointing out with what we ordered! Highly recommend all the chef specials and maxing out on your premiums. Salmon belly is always great!

Super delicious and great service. Glad to have an all you can eat sushi spot in Katy! Our server was Jeff, it was our first time here and he broke down how it works and had great recommendations. Jeff was friendly and attentive, great service!! My favs were the Hurricane and High Roller.

Sushi Lovers’ Paradise!
I'm still reeling from the incredible all-you-can-eat sushi experience at Little Sakana! This hidden gem serves up a sushi extravaganza with endless options, expertly prepared and ridiculously fresh dishes, and superb service. From classic rolls to unique creations, my favorites included the Salmon Roll, Tưn Roll, Tempura Shrimp, Salmon Skins (I was craving to eat so I forgot take a photo), and Crab Rangoon. With unbeatable value and a warm atmosphere, we really enjoyed this experience.
A must-visit for sushi enthusiasts, I'll definitely return with friends!

My daughter‘s new to Houston and had noticed that this restaurant had opened within the last few weeks. So we decided to try it when I went to go visit her. The sushi rolls and nigiri we’re delicious. The servers were very attentive and the location is quite spacious. There’s plenty of seating available for small and large parties as well. We both had the all you can eat sushi. You can also order à la carte. You don’t have to have the all you can eat. We tried different items from the all-you-can-eat menu. Everything was very tasty fresh and made to order. I would definitely come again as well as recommend to others.

Best place to have big group parties/events! I was scrambling for another restaurant to fit me and 15+ people for my birthday celebration because the previous reservation canceled my request. Little Sakana was able to accommodate and made planning super easy! Ethan and his team went above and beyond to make sure me and my guests were taken care of (shoutout to the Little Sakana staff dealing without orders). I liked how their team had a system on how my party should order along with splitting our tabs accordingly. If you all are looking to have a gathering, Little Sakana is a spot I’d recommend (they even added balloons to the chairs and I didn’t even ask for them! It’s the little things that make me love restaurants that go above and beyond)!

Great atmosphere, decent prices, and all the sushi you can eat for 2 hours! You can't go wrong trying this place out!
Our servers name was Kylan. (Did a great job serving and making sure our plates didn't pile up)
Their sushi is made with care and at just the right temperature! (If you don't understand why that's important. Then this message isn't for you)
Note that they're currently having its soft opening. So you won't be getting their lunch special.

Tried this new spot for AYCE sushi, and it was great! Portions were generous, and the flavors, especially the salmon, reminded me of Kura’s seasonings.

This place was recommended to me by a family member and I was on the NO side because I was so used to eating places like uchi, uchiko, roka akor and just pretty much the fancy sushi places. But we went in and gave it a shot.. boy the service was awesome! Sushi quality was there too! Everyone that works there was awesome, teamwork at its best. Our waiter Jay stands out the most on making sure we got everything we needed.. and Michelle the manager was super sweet on walking around making sure everyone was good.. definitely will be back..

The AYCE menu is comparable in price at $32.99 for dinner to other similar establishments with the exception of less non-sushi options and that they charge an extra $9.99 for sashimi which everybody at the table must participate in to order.

Heard great things about this place from friends and family. My husband and I came on a Friday for lunch ($22.99 per person) which included everything on the menu except for sashimi and very few items. The host was thoughtful enough to remove a chair for us to make space for our stroller. Our waiter, Ky Lan, was quick, attentive, and friendly. Not only him, but the other waiters and waitresses were quick on their feet when drinks needs to be refilled or an empty plate needed to be taken away. Food came out so quick too. It was helpful and considerate that they named the dish/nigiris/rolls (which other places doesn't usually do - they just drop it & go) as they were coming out. Since we ordered so many things, it was good to know what was what so we can order it again. The quality of the food also exceeded our expectations and lived up to the hype! I'd recommend the salmon skin, garlic ponzu salmon nigiri, baked scallop, and lemon roll. We live 40 minutes away from here and we both agreed it's worth the drive to come back here again.

To preface, my wife and I absolutely LOVE sushi. It's our favorite food, and this was genuinely the best sushi we've ever had. Everything was so fresh, tender, and tasted fantastic. It was also served very quickly! Sometimes, we would get a roll in only a minute or two after ordering it. The service was also phenomenal. Our server was Youjoung (I'm so sorry if I misspelled that), and she was so friendly and attentive. Even above that, every hostess, server, runner, and busser were all so kind and respectful. Through all of these things, as well as comfortable seating, a beautiful atmosphere, and high cleanliness standards, I would highly recommend giving your business to Little Sakana. I can most definitely say we will definitely be back to one of our new favorite restaurants!

great service! food came out fast & our server Larry was nice enough to answer our questions. we also had some other server assistants, one named Joseph i think.
our server Larry was very helpful & let us know that they are currently still in their soft opening (as of 1/6/25), but coming next month they will have changes made to their hours and AYCE menu. excited for them to add some desserts to the AYCE menu!
their hours on google are kind of confusing right now, but at the moment they are only having AYCE lunch on fridays. the server notified us that their AYCE hours will be solidified come next month.
very good food; their sushi’s meat/fish/other ingredients to rice ratio is great; not too much rice! all the food and drinks we’ve had have been super yummy!
we recommend trying the VIP roll & lemon roll.
at the moment they offer sashimi or nigiri for an additional $10 on top of the AYCE dinner price (~$33 per person).. maybe they’ll change it to be included once they finalize their AYCE menu?

This ain’t no buffet. Small menu. No dessert. The sushi selection is 70% salmon with different toppings. Extra charge for 5 types of sashimi that already exist in the limited sushi section. The sushi rice tasted stale/undercooked. They ran out of hamachi Kama, 1/3 chef’s specials, and 1/3 of the secret menu. Paid $15 dollar for my drink (even though the menu says $14). So what is the point of this??? Also, I walked out smelling greasy AF. The ventilation is horrendous.

Diana did great during a busy dinner service tonight. She set the expectation that it was a bit busier than usual and that she would be by to check in as soon as she could. Our drinks stayed full and the delay was likely just kitchen being bogged down by the volume. Great value for AYCE with a lot variety from apps, nigiri, hand rolls, and rolls. Sashimi add on is $9.99 and the full party has to upgrade. Will definitely add this to the rotation.

Overall, I felt that this was definitely one of the better quality AYCE sushi places in Houston. The sashimi and service was great.

I will not be coming back to this place. Very bad. Even the servers are complaining about it. This will not click here in Texas. Fake sushi. Expensive prices.
If you want real AYCE here in the Houston area, I challenge all the readers here to go visit SUMO Sushi at 19719 Northwest Freeway, Houston (just map it) and compare it to this Little Sakana Place and see if you will ever come back. It is cheaper, way better, great ambience, has server robots and authentic Japanese (unlike this place that has a Vietnamese or Chinese sushi feeling).
I truly regretted coming to Little Sakana. I spent more for low quality food. They charged me $32 and wanted to charge an extra $9.99 if sashimi was ordered. Drinks and dessert are charged extra as well.

Amazing AYCE, good service and the food came out so fast! There is a huge selection with something for everyone, appetizers, salad, nigiri, hand rolls, classic rolls, baked rolls, as well as deep-fried!
There are some vegetarian items, but not very many so I would not quite recommend for vegetarians. For dinner it’s more expensive, but they also offer some special items that are only available at dinner time.
Our server (Michelle) was so attentive and offered a water refill even when it wasn’t empty. Very nice and informative about the menu.

Overall great experience at Little Sakana. Food was brought promptly after ordering (no more than 5 minutes for appetizers, nigiris or rolls). Larry was very attentive throughout the service as well as the rest of the staff working on 12/13 (props to them).
Staff was very professional, always cleaning/bussing tables and checking on every table, even if they were not the server for that section. For this to be a soft opening was surprising for me and my wife. Sashimi was fresh, rolls were delicious, and non alcoholic drinks were wonderful!
Looking forward to when y'all fully open!

AYCE! Be warned on the weekend, the price is a bit steep in comparison to similar places. The food came out fresh and relatively quick. It's great to have small bite sizes so you can sample other items on the menu without getting full so quickly. Don't forget to ask about the chef special. My fave was the salmon mayo but there was a limit to how many you can order in total. The restaurant is very spacious and spread out. My son and I ordered a total of 26 items and we couldn't eat anymore....

first time here and probably last time because there are more better options for AYCE sushi/Japanese restaurant especially for lower price. this place charge extra for sashimi, which is unheard of, there are no other restaurants that do that, this place is a new and canme from Cali and they do this bs extra charge.
but I have to admit their food was good/compareable to other similar places and gear service but just their prices suck that I forgot to take pics of their food:)

This place was a total let down. There are 2 better places on Hwy 290 for AYCE Sushi. First of all barely a kids menu. Unless your kids like eating raw sushi there's pretty much nothing but fries to eat. Don't bring your kids. Secondly this place charges extra $9 for sashimi? WTH!!! This is the only place I been in Houston that charges extra. It's already $33 for adult dinner. Thirdly, you only get 2 each of eel Nigeria per adult. That's it. I thought I miss heard the waiter and u can only order 2 pieces/person at a time. Nope just 4 pieces total. What kind of AYCE limits what u want. Waiter said it's premium so u only get 2. That's some BS. I don't think their sushi was that fresh, the food never settle in my stomache, worst AYCE ever. This place could have been amazing but their business model sucks. Only bright spot was that your food came out quick. A little too quick.... probably premade and waiting. I will definitely not go back. There's a AYCE off barker and 290 and another at 1960/290 that will blow this place away.

Absolutely loved our visit! Jeffery is the best server - he recommended Umami Oil Salmon and it changed my life. All the servers were helpful and kept the table clean. The food is out of this world. Service was extremely fast too!! Cannot wait to go back.

The Atmosphere was good and the food was exceptional! Everything came out really fast and the server provided amazing service! She checked on us frequently and was very kind and gave us some recommendations! Im so glad we tried this place out! Itll be our new ACYE Sushi place! $22.99 for lunch and you get about a few rolls so it’s not a lot and you can try everything!

I taught English in Japan for 6 years and ate a lot of sushi there. Little Sakana Katy is the best sushi I’ve tried in the USA. Very similar to what you’d find in Japan. So happy to have this restaurant in Katy!!

Wow! Absolutely loved the lunch all you can eat. I tend to be weary of ‘all you can eat’ styles because it tends to not be fresh and limited. This was made to order and tasted fantastic. A couple of the items on the menu are a surcharge for the all you can eat but other than that there are tons of options! I will definitely be back!

I'm a big fan of AYCE sushi places, and this one is very good. Orders of sushi rolls are mostly served four pieces at a time here, which is great to not be committed to one huge roll that will leave you too full to try something else. Everything was delicious but It was disappointing to see they charge an additional $9.99 to include sashimi to the AYCE, which costs already around $36 to $37 (no drink) with tax prior to tip. This additional isn't done by its competitors in the area, perhaps because it becomes price restrictive. I ate here on a Wednesday night when it was fairly empty, and service was a little slow due to having only 1 or 2 waiters. I also had to ask 3 times to get a small miso soup and a couple of times to get sauces, but everyone was friendly. Lastly, the place was pretty chilly. I'm always warm, but everyone at my table, including myself, was cold. This isn't a huge con for me, but it's good to know for those who get cold easily. I would rather be a little cold than hot while eating. I would definitely come back...unless I am craving sashimi, then I'll have to go somewhere else. Otherwise,I recommend it.

BEST SUSHI IN KATY
I have tried lots of sushi however once little Sakana opened, it’s an absolute game changers
You will get your moneys worth from AYCE with nigiri and sushi rolls.
Food is amazingly fresh especially the cuts of salmon and yellowtail. The appetizers are so delicious and they even have beef gyoza which is wonderful for non pork customers!
If you want fresh sushi and the ability to expand your sushi palettes and try new things! You need to go little Sakana!!

My daughter‘s new to Houston and had noticed that this restaurant had opened within the last few weeks. So we decided to try it when I went to go visit her. The sushi rolls and nigiri we’re delicious. The servers were very attentive and the location is quite spacious. There’s plenty of seating available for small and large parties as well. We both had the all you can eat sushi. You can also order à la carte. You don’t have to have the all you can eat. We tried different items from the all-you-can-eat menu. Everything was very tasty fresh and made to order. I would definitely come again as well as recommend to others.

The restaurant itself sounds very loud, like the space amplifies the sound. The AYCE price to value. There are set menus sashimi vs nigiri. I didn’t like the rice with the nigiri it tasted like AYCE. Also they close pretty early so make sure you go 3-4 hours before closing. Also the secret menu limits 1 order per customer. Which makes sense since it’s the belly of the fish but the taste wasn’t very Toro. The concept itself is not for me. Maybe if there was a choice just to get sashimi on any order. I feel like katy Asian town is cursed in that way of restaurants there always lack something where I don’t want to come back. I just hope the taste improves.

We recently came in just to see what the hype was about and it was a really great experience! The fish was fresh and our server Larry recommended a lot of good items on the menu and even included some off menu items! We hope to be back whenever the restauraunt is officially open with their full menu. Larry was a great server and we recommend asking him to be your server when you visit!

Tried Little Sakana for the first time and we were sat with Larry. He was very attentive and super friendly! I definitely recommend him because he showed us around the menu and we got to try some off menu items! The food was good quality and the food running was fast aswell. Didn’t really have to wait long on the staff if we needed something and they’re always happy to help!

We visited for the first time on a Saturday around 8:30 PM, but unfortunately, we were turned away because the hostess said they had ran out of food. We decided to try again the following Friday at the same time and were seated immediately. However, the hostess informed us that they had stopped offering AYCE and were now serving only à la carte, despite handing us an AYCE menu. Just a minute later, she returned to say that AYCE was indeed available. There’s an additional charge of $9.99 if we wanted sashimi.
In terms of value, I don't think the AYCE price is justified. There are limited sashimi options, and certain dishes may not be available or may have run out if you arrive late. Additionally, some dishes are restricted to just one order each. Be sure to read the AYCE rules beforehand.
The servers were friendly, quick, and attentive. As soon as we placed our orders, the dishes started arriving within seconds, and they were efficient at clearing away empty plates. At times, the atmosphere felt more like a club; when it was someone’s birthday, they cranked up the music and celebrated the birthday guest with cheers.
As for the food, the sushi was just average. The sashimi cuts were thinner than what I've experienced at other places, and a specialty roll we tried was excessively sweet. We ordered miso soup twice but never received it, and instead of the seaweed salad we requested, we were served cucumber salad. Towards the end, we were then suddenly offered of their “secret menu” which was the toros. We were pretty much full at that point but still tried it. Overall, I probably wouldn’t return for AYCE unless invited by friends or family.

Top notch service and high quality sushi for AYCE! There's an incredible attention to detail from the moment you walk through the doors. The space is beautiful, warm, inviting and exciting. Perfect for a date night, family outing, and can accommodate groups of friends. The umami oil salmon is unique and can't find it anywhere else!

Went there on Sunday with a friend and had the lunch with $9.99 added all you can eat sashimi. Among all the dishes, the ex-boyfriend was one of our favorite! Overall the flavor is pleasant, but many dishes had too much eel sauce making them extra sweet. If eel sauce is something you like, you’ll enjoy all the dishes. Otherwise, some of them might be a bit too sweet for you.

Pros;
Most of the sushi rolls tasted high quality 😋
Large variety of choices to pick from
Super friendly waitress and knows the menu well
Customer service was very good and frequent
Cons;
Eel sushi was limited to two per person 😭
No desert on the menu for AYCE
The atmosphere was very noisy with music and ppl, it's hard to hear the waitress and I had to speak very loud to communicate.
Our waitress Dorcey knows the menu well gave good recommendations and attended us frequently. We were very happy customers, but probably avoid rush hrs. Too noisy for me. Well visit again 😁

Tasty food with reasonable price for an all you can eat experience. Drinks are extra, but this not a "buffet" style, (so if you want free drinks go to a buffet instead), plus some all you can eat places do charge for drinks, so it's not an uncommon practice. They have two different prices for lunch and dinner.
Service was great when I visited, staffs gave helpful recommendations. They just opened a couple of weeks ago I think (prior to this review) and were still in soft opening stage on the day of my visit. The place has a cool vibe and modern interior design , feels very comfortable and open. Highly recommend this place for a good all you can eat sushi experience.

I was very excited to try the newest AYCE sushi spot in Katy Asia Town, and this place did not disappoint! Their original location is in San Diego, and the ambiance and service was spectacular. Usually at AYCE places, the service is subpar. From managers, servers, and food runners, everyone was attentive and friendly. I especially enjoyed our service from Ethan and Haven. They were exceptionally friendly and welcoming; going over the menu and items delivered. The ambiance is very bright and clean here. The fish quality tasted quite fresh for AYCE, but do know that sashimi is an additional $9.99 (not included with the AYCE items). I recommend trying their spicy garlic edamame, grilled mussels, udon (great palette cleanser), smoked salmon, jalapeno hamachi, spicy scallop handroll, "Ex-boyfriend", and anything salmon really. Overall, worth trying out and definitely would come back again. You'll be seeing us again Little Sakana!

Haven and Ethan provided exceptional hospitality that truly made our experience memorable. From the moment we arrived, they made us feel welcome and comfortable, offering thoughtful recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. Their attentiveness and warmth complemented the restaurant’s comforting, spacious, and brightly lit interior, which made for a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. The food, including the Umami Oil Salmon, Yellowtail, Salmon with Garlic Ponzu, Spicy Salmon, Sweet Soy Salmon, Mini Udon, Spicy Garlic Edamame, and some fantastic secret menu items, came out quickly and was delicious. Haven and Ethan’s dedication to making our visit exceptional shone through in every interaction, transforming our meal into a standout experience

Pretty good for AYCE sushi! Ambience is nice, service even better! Team lead Ethan is very personable, can tell that he really cares about customer experience and feedback! Only reason for 4 star is there is no dessert included, otherwise sushi quality is great for AYCE! The highlight for us is the seared salmon offered one person per table! Will definitely be back!

We visited Little Sakana during their soft opening and were seated pretty promptly on a early dinner weekend.
To start ordering, all party members must be seated. The price of the all-you-can-eat does not include sashimi, which is an additional $9.99.
The experience overall was really great. The most notable part was the great service. There was always someone coming over and asking to clear our empty dishes. Loved the 2000s club music in the background, which was at a good decent level.
The sashimi selection is pretty limited compared to other places. During the soft opening, they had the special salmon belly. For the nigiri, the rice portion was small, great. There is a large varity of nigiri choices, such as umami oil salmon and garlic ponzu salmon. The speciality and fried rolls came in either 4-8 pieces which were thinner than average, great if you want to try other rolls. The portion size for the appitizers were small too, also great when trying multiple dishes. Hand rolls were neat and tightly rolled. All of our dishes came out in a timely manner. We really didn't need the two hour limit.
Overall, come for the ayce menu if you're not interested in sashimi. The choices for the ayce menu (minus sashimi) are abundant and different. You won't feel bored with the different choices in apps, nigiri, hand roll, speciality rolls, fried rolls, and baked rolls. The portion sizes for the rolls, rice, and apps are small so you're not filling yourself up on one roll.
The place is pretty large and can handle large parties (they do reservations). Come before 6:00 pm on the weekends or it'll get busy.

Went on a Friday night, place was packed but didn’t feel crowded. Server, Ethan, was very polite and helpful. He even told us about some off the menu specials which were delicious. Portion sizes were large. Even the American dishes (for my kid) were cooked to perfection. Manager, Michelle, was nice and always walking around.
They even hit on the small things like chopstick "helpers" for the kids. Coke that they turn into cherry coke, not too sweet for the sushi. Clean restrooms. No guest WiFi, but I hope that comes in the future.
9/10. Best sushi restaurant I’ve been too.

I didn’t get to take all the pics. My wife took me here and my god it’s all so good! Just don’t order the agedashi tofu it’s not good lol
They have a 2 hr limit, surcharge for extra food wasted, no sharing policy.
Some items are capped on the menu with a limit like the eel nigiri sushi pieces.
The sushi rice was really good, the seaweed wrap good, the rolls and shrimp and vegetable tempura, udon, salad , all good too.
We probably ate over $100 worth of sushi together easily compared to other places LOL
It’s $22.99 during the lunch weekdays and $32.99 evening and weekends and holidays.
My favorites were eel rolls with avacado and crab, California rolls, spicy scallop sushi pieces, eel sushi pieces.
Their wasabi is really fresh and horse radish too.
Will definitely come back again soon! Highly recommended and our waiter Thao was very nice and helpful

We had the all you can eat and 1 of us did the a la carte. Service was really good. Ky was being trained but he did really well. He was very pleasant and always smiling. Their salmon nigiri (garlic with ponzu and lemon) was really tasty. Too bad the all you can eat didn’t include drinks, sashimis or any dessert so quite pricey for all you can eat with the menu they have.
