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

Great first time experience! Would have loved a little acknowledgment of my son's birthday! Usually get a little something from other places! But did not deter from great food and ambiance!

The new brunch menu is extremely good. I especially liked the breakfast bao. If you can get in during the holiday season it’s even more gloriously cluttered with charming decorations than usual. Service was attentive without being intrusive.

Terrible service. The staff seemed to be in a very bad mood. Not helpful. Brought the check before even I was done eating and ordering. This was my second visit and I am definitely not going back.
