What People Are Saying About Azuma-Downtown
The Editor

Citysearch
In Short – With a chic location in the Rice Hotel and a modern Asian-inspired decor, the second Houston location for Azuma caters to hustling downtown hipsters who visit at lunch for their weekly sushi fix or saunter in during happy hour to try something new. Fried noodle soups, tempura and teriyaki augment a traditional sushi menu, ensuring non-fish eaters don't feel left behind.

Worst sushi I have ever experienced
by TRAVELusa at Citysearch
I am a sushi buff and try to sample the city's finest every time I travel- which is once every two weeks to a major US city. I have experienced excellent sushi in Las Vegas, Chicago, LA, NOLA, NY, Atlanta, Dallas, Minneapolis, DC, Portland, Burlington, Miami, Orlando, Indy, Philly, San Fran, San Diego, and the list goes on and on. These range from 5-10 on a 10 scale. Azuma came in at about a 2. The avocado was so hard that I could not push a chopstick tip through it. The menu was scarce and non-descriptive. The taste was hardly worth the 6 block walk from downtown Marriott. I wish I would have seen a review like this before i spent my final night in Houston and wasted a meal and 60 bucks. Next time I will try The Fish.
- Pros: walking distance from downtown
- Cons: See below

The other location on Kirby is sooo much better
by WoweeHouston at Citysearch
I went to the DT location and took some newcomers. I raved about the restaurant and discovered that the fish and rice tasted dry. I was embarrassed.
- Pros: Atmosphere
- Cons: Food was so so
The Details on Azuma-Downtown
Know Before You Go:
The chef from the original Azuma location oversees both restaurants, so diners can expect the same high level of quality at Azuma/Rice as they do at the original Azuma in the Village.
