South Congress, Austin · restaurant
Texas’s first James Beard-certified sustainable sushi restaurant, where the sourcing and technique actually live up to the label. The menu moves through dry-aged fish, locally sourced proteins, and Nikkei-style combinations that blend Japanese precision with South American flavors, while the ramen has developed its own loyal following alongside crowd favorites like the Twisted Tuna Nachos. The South Congress patio stays packed, but the indoor swing seats are the tables people quietly angle for.
