I absolutely wanted to love this place so much I love so many local places because I am a Corpus Christi and flour bluff resident. But we went here and we were instantly delayed in service. We actually waited for eight open bar seat, which we’re grateful that we got when we got the other open bars it took 10 minutes to service our first drink with not our server. Our server eventually greeted us. I confirmed her drinks that we already had and hen meter sushi rolls. The sushi was delicious. I am not gonna lie, but it took an hour for sushi rolls and a drink refill.

Had dinner with some friends. Food was excellent. Service was on point. 2 of us ordered the filet on the salt block and I ordered the triple threat. All was delicious.

The food, ambiance and service here are amazing. Romeo (owner) and his family are the best! I come here multiple times a year when I visit. The Triple Threat (pictured) is a MUST. Sub-in the mac ‘n cheese!

Best fried shrimp in town (gulf king jumbos) and the TJ filet always hits. Great sushi rollers and Romeo makes you feel special every time.

came here for the first time for my anniversary and it was perfect! staff was super friendly, katie was the greatest waitress! the steak was absolutely delicious! ordered it medium and kept cooking it on the salt block & it was perfect! really great sushi (they make it in front of you if you’re sitting at the bar)! pot stickers are beef & they were good as well! pasta was decent, i should’ve ordered chicken in it but it was still good! 10/10, would come back here again! love this place!

I wish I could give less than 1 star. Recommended to eat from a family friend. Came here with a party of 4, reservations for 6:30. Seated fast, but the all the waitresses there gave my friends and I ugly looks. Food took FOREVER. we waited almost an hour and an half for our food while other people who had arrived after us got their food before us. Our waitress didn’t even tend to us as needed. Other waitresses were assisting us. I guess people who she knew were sitting at the bar and you could tell she was taking care of them all well and everything dismissing our needs. When asked how much longer for the food the waitress said there was only one cook in the back (but i don’t get how the people after us got their food before us.) After waiting an eternity for our food… the food came and the portions were SO SMALLL!! $20+ for a plate for it to be from the kids menu. It was also cold. The only good thing we’re the tuna nachos. Not worth the wait at all. -2/10 I do not recommend this place. My first and last time here.

This restaurant is the most uniquely Strange sushi restaurant I have ever been in. We asked to be seated at a table and they sat us in the “lounge” instead because we had never been before. After being seated we had our drink order taken, they didn’t have lemonade, sweet tea or Shirley temples? After that red flag we put our food order in and to our dismay they were out of miso soup too! Our very spaced out waitress put our order in and then avoided us for 45 minutes. We tried to get the check and leave but instead they brought us awful sushi. Old rice and weird flavored fish. To top it all off the ceiling was dripping on our table and the food.

Like many of the island restaurants, it has a bar feel and the menus and tables needed wiping down, but they do have several vegetarian options and were willing to accommodate substitutions.

This was a recommended restaurant by our hotel. Being sushi lovers, we couldn’t wait to check it out. Instead, we came away extremely disappointed. We arrived shortly after opening. Some tables were already seated. Despite a couple of girls working at the front door, we were left standing and wondering if we’d be greeted and seated. We eventually grabbed a couple of seats at the bar and watched other customers be seated with no issues. Some time passed before we were offered menus and glasses of water. We ordered 4 sushi rolls – Salmon Lover / Ecstasy / Crystal / Rattlesnake rolls, specifically asking to exclude jalapeños in the Rattlesnake roll. Others rolls were either not spicy or detailed as having only spicy mayo. At this point we were told rice wasn’t cooked yet and it’ll be a longer wait for sushi rolls – astonishing for a sushi restaurant at opening time. We ordered an appetizer that didn’t have rice to wait out the rice prep. The appetizer, however, was served only shortly before the rest of the food. It sat behind the sushi bar waiting on the waitress to bring it over. The Crystal roll was doused in red pepper flakes which was not part of the menu description. Jalapeños were included inside and on top of the Rattlesnake roll. The spiciness made each of the rolls unbearable to enjoy. The waitress did not come back to check on us even once, which left us with empty water glasses and not able to wash down the spiciness of the rolls, or to send them back. Ginger wasn’t included with the served plates either and had to be asked about from another server running by. Before bringing us the check, the waitress was reminded of the jalapeño issue. She just shrugged it off. All in all, just 2 rolls were tasty, atmosphere wasn’t good and dinner for two with no drinks cost $100. Not coming back here, and cannot recommend it to others.

Island time is absolutely one of our favorites! Romeo and Debbie and their team knock it out of the park consistently. This is the third or fourth time we have use them to host a large group and everything is set up perfectly, ready on time and plated beautifully! The salt block steak and scallops are phenom and the ninja noodle too! Sushi is super fresh all the time! The bananas Foster is off the charts, and always always always ask if there is a feature cheesecake by Debbie!
