Casa Kenji - Houston, TX

I would recommend this place a thousand times if I could! Everything was freshly made and all the nigiri just melted in our mouths. The pork chop, bluefin otoro binchotan, and the toffee mochi were all star dishes in my eyes, but everything we ate was delicious. Overall an amazing dining experience and the chefs exceeded my expectations of what Japanese-Latin fusion could taste like!

Ate at Casa Kenji last night and it was so good. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The vibe was great and the service matched the quality of the food. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

This place is fabulous. I loved the food, the atmosphere, and the service! This new restaurant is among the Houston top, Casa Kenji has a bold mix of Japanese and unexpected Latin fusion flavors. The sushi goes beyond the traditional, layered with bright, punchy elements. This is a great place for anyone looking to try something different in Houston's dining scene. We had a great experience here! We will be coming back for sure.

Casa Kenji's patio is so beautiful. The dishes surprise you by making something as basic as milk bread feel like a signature dish. It comes out slightly sweet, and almost cloud-like in texture. It is a great contrast with the lighter dishes like the crudos and oysters. Can't wait to come back!

Casa Kenji is one of those restaurants in Houston that feels intimate and almost cinematic. Sitting solo at the bar you really notice the details: the quiet Japanese precision with the Latin fusion flavor. The sushi and crudos are well crafted. The crowd and experience make it a perfect escape for anyone wanting to enjoy elevated Japanese cuisine in Houston at their own pace.
