"Sashimi and sushi should be simple. At their core, they're not much more than seafood and rice (and nori plus a little extra, in the case of sushi). It seems like nowadays, lots of resturaunts like to put their own spin on something that has been mastered for years. I can appreciate it, but i often miss the originality of sushi without the... extra originality... I suppose. I'm sure most people reading this are familiar with the sushi available at your local HEB topped with Hot Cheeto dust, but I'm happy to report that here at Sapporo, the sushi is artfully (and simply) constructed. Rice and fish, yes (or shrimp, or calamari, or otherwise), but at its core, they have remained true to what good food should be: a good, simple recipe, made with heart and soul. The meal I ordered was the Sushi Combo B, and it was exactly what I hoped it would be, perhaps a little more: elegantly presented on creatively molded ceramic with an orchid garnish to add some otherwise absent violet coloring, a delectable side salad and miso soup with soft tofu. Even the environment left very little to be desired, with the Christmas music playing in the background, and the cowboys game quietly on the TV, Sapporo's offers an Asian-American fusion environment without compromising on the food. It might even lend itself well to a first date spot. I'm only here on business, but I still highly reccomend this place to both visitors and locals alike. 10/10, would go again."

I don't often write reviews, but I was so impressed by the customer service at this restaurant that I felt it would be unfair not to share my experience! The food is consistently excellent Japanese cuisine, particularly for the price, and the portion sizes are quite generous for a downtown location. However, what truly stands out to me is the warmth and friendliness of the staff. Whether you choose to order to-go or visit during busy hours, the team is always welcoming and gracious. They handle the pressure with such poise, and they absolutely deserve all the recognition we can give them.
