Matsu Japanese Restaurant

About this business

Pale pine accents, sake jars and bonsai trees all work to add authentic Japanese appeal to this dining experience. It is common for the sushi chef to literally shout a greeting when you enter, so do not let him catch you off guard. Be prepared to relax and enjoy a pleasant evening with excellent hospitality. Stick with the sushi or try the warm eel with a California roll if you are feeling adventurous. The menu is not kid-friendly but it is perfect for couples spending a child-free evening out.

We have been long term fans of Matsu. Always good service, happy service and great food. No complaints and have steered many customers to Matsu. Today, I am sorry to say they have lost this customer. Among many menu items we ordered this early evening was calamari salad which came to us frozen. It still had ice crystals. I demonstrated to the waitress and asked that they remove it from the check. They obliged and did not charge us for subpar food but mgmt. never came to the table to apologize, offer another item, or provide ... read more

This is a nice comfortable place to eat sushi. I have lived in Southeast Asia and have had sushi in Japan, mainland and island, in Korea, and in the PI. I enjoy the look, feel, and taste of the restaurant and the sushi, itself. I eat sushi on a weekly basis and my husband chose to bring me here for our anniversary dinner; it seems to have become a tradition in our three years of marriage. It was a great meal and the staff is wonderful.

Always Great Sushi – My wife and I have been going to Matsu for almost 7 years now. The sushi is always top notch. We have tried many sushi places in Texas and California and Matsu is the best so far. The sushi is also really cheap during their happy hour to boot.

Best Sushi In North Houston – We needed a new sushi place because we moved and found Matsu. This is, by far, the best sushi restaurant I have ever been to (in North Houston). We have tried others and none have been able to compete. The employees are very nice and accommodating. I may not have had sushi in Japan or am a huge connoisseur of sushi but I DO know the basics of quality sushi/sashimi. I have a friend who actually has had sushi in Japan and he definitely recommends this place. It is ALWAYS fresh and made with care. ... read more

Matsu Japanese Restaurant is great! This is a great Japanese Restautant. By far, the best sushi and sashimi on the northside of Houston. My husband and I love to eat at the sushi bar. The owners are very friendly. I would recommend this restautant to others.

Authentic and good Matsu is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants on the North side of town. The food is very authentic and the sushi chef is actually Japanese. Very fresh sushi and excellent tempura. Nice, quaint establishment with a great wait staff.

Excellent for outer Houston – I was visiting Houston from Los Angeles where we have fabulous sushi which puts most sushi in other cities in the USA to shame. I have also lived in Japan and had the real thing. Matsu is very good. The prices are incredibly low for the quality of fish and amount of food. basil4prez said it was high - the sashimi lunch box is 9.95, nice sashimi, tempura, rice, salad, soup, fruit etc. I had my 22 month old son with me and they were very accommodating, he wasn't in a good mood when we got there bu... read more
