Sushi Yume

Hands-down, one of the best sushi restaurants in Austin I've ever been to and I've been in the city since 2014. I've been to ultra high fine dining, Omakase, all the types in Austin. This restaurant has to be the number 1 value to dollar to taste sushi restaurant that just opened. Sadly when people hear how incredible this restaurant is, I'll probably have to wait 2-3 hours for a table. Anyone reading this, go try this place before the masses find out. Incredible fresh fresh capital F in fresh sashimi, every single slice of fish tasted incredible fresh. I have no idea how they did this, I guess the chef caught the fish in the ocean and sliced it directly for me? Have to be. They have fresh wasabi the real deal and I've never had it at a normal sushi restaurant until now. I've had it with ultra high fine dining but not your regular restaurant. The wasabi is sweet not that horseradish type. Even the board it comes on looks like a shark fin board. Normally, I would explain the textures of each dish, but anyone reading this just think of soft, fibrous, firm, crispy, salty, seawater, low amount of seaweed and sugar all over the meal. You don't need soy sauce. I almost debate the soy sauce would take away from the meal.

Amazing find in RR. The fish is so fresh and the prices are reasonable given the quality. On top of that, they are very customer oriented and gave us a couple samples when they saw we were high spenders.Place is simply but elegantly decorated, would be totally fine for a date.Portions are generous. My double salmon roll was huge.

I seriously don't know why I waited for so long to go here because now I have nothing but regrets I didn't have their sushi sooner! We came at 8:19pm on a Saturday night. They were slam busy and all tables were full. They were able to squeeze us in as their last customers because they have 3 other parties before us. They close at 9pm. It was a tight squeeze and we usually don't eat dinner this late but we were coming back from an event. The staff were super friendly and the vibe was relaxing. Food came out fast and service was seriously on point! This was our first time dining here and we have heard nothing but amazing things about this place! It's been in my bucket list to try for a while. I am so glad we're able to get to try it! Food presentation and quality sushi grade fish on all dishes were 5 stars! Here are the dishes we ordered:* crispy rice with tuna : 5/5 that rice was super crispy and delicious! The tuna had the perfect bit of spicy. Totally recommend this dish! * 2 salmon Nigris: 5/5 the salmon melts in your mouth! Proper thickness and was super fresh! Super tasty nigiris and I highly recommend! * 2 scallop nigiris : 5/5 the best scallops ! Sooooo sooo good! Proper thickness and was super fresh! Thank you for not skimping on thickness! I will definitely be back for more scallops and salmon nigiris! Love the sauce on the scallops and it definitely enhances the scallops! Just delicious * hamachi chili 4/5 super fresh hamachi and the sauce along with the fried crispy onion was the perfect bite. Some of the crispy onion was a bit burnt but it was still yummy with the sauce and fish. * crunch salmon roll: 4/5: tempura shrimp was fried perfectly on the extra crunch was delicious. A but hard to eat but tasty* snow roll: 4/5 Smokey taste from this roll, it was really unique and one of a kind type of roll. If you love Smokey you will love this roll * rainbow roll: 4/5 all of the fish quality was great! I am usually not a fan of imitated crab in sushi but I love the citrus flavor lightly sauce sizzle on this roll. * Alaskan roll: 5/5 our favorite roll! It was so fresh and perfect amount of heat. * hamachi collar: compliments from the chef: we loved the hamachi collar! 5/5* hamachi fin: compliments from the chef: The hamachi fin was a bit chewy texture. Love the yuzu and flavor of the sauce paired with the fin. 3/5Do we recommend Sushi Yume? Do wait so long like I did and RUN to Sushi Yume! Yes yes yes yes yes! Highly recommended and be sure not ti go last minute like we did because you may not be seated. This place gets packed because of the amazing service and food they provide. Best to make reservations to ensure you are seated. The space does have limited tables and bar seats. It's not a huge restaurant but the perfect quaint enjoyable place! We can't wait to return to try the other rolls and nigiris!

Located in this random strip center is this hidden gem serving the best sushi in Round Rock area. It's pretty small and cozy inside so expect a wait if you're coming for dinner or make a reservation (they set aside a few tables per night and the rest are for walk ins). We ordered the chef special 10 piece nigiri set ($45) and I was pleasantly surprised how delicious and delicate each piece of fish was. The salmon with blue crab carpaccio was good but wouldn't order it again not sure if the crab overpowered the salmon. We also ordered the baked lobster roll and that in its self could have been an entree. Excited to come back and try more of the menu.

Our neighbor has been raving about their experience and asked a few times if we had made it in to try Sushi Yume! I passed him on the way with a "guess where we're headed?" The rave review was met without exception. Clean, bright, and simple decor (love the old record players). Service was prompt and courteous!Tried the shishitos (great dish with some unexpected flair), a side salad, Seared Tuna Sashimi, Salmon and Crab Sashimi, and a baked roll. All three rolls were exceptional. Can't wait to go back for more.

We came on a Friday night and 7pm and we had to wait for about 50 minutes for a party of 4 to be seated. They do not take reservations but you can come and put your name down on a list and they will call you when your table is ready. I suggest you do that so you do not have to wait. The rolls are very good size and the prices are phenomenal. We ordered 4 rolls and 3 appetizers and it was about $100 that is an amazing deal. Everything tasted great. Quiet and understated place. Cannot wait to come back.

Sushi Yume is FANTASTIC!! We were in the area for work and spotted this place nearby with great reviews - and boy, are this reviews justified!Everything was phenomenal! Service was lighting fast and friendly ! It was cold out so we began with Miso Soup that was perfect and also a deal at just $2 a bowl!Then I tried two of their Sashimi- a salmon with ruffle and tuna with jalapeño! Born some of the best o have ever had! It was all amazing and made for a perfect lunch!!

Absolute gem of a place. So grateful we have a delicious sushi spot in the RR area! 5/5 for the food and service. Sushi Yume is a casual spot that's perfect for lunch or dinner. Can't wait to return!

I can't believe it took me so long to find this spot! The food is delicious and fresh, the staff is extremely kind, and the restaurant is lovely and clean. I had actually gotten a blister from walking earlier in the day but didn't have any bandaids with me. The staff gave me a bandaid and I am so very appreciative for it Can't wait to be back!! Highly recommend.

This might just be THE best mid range sushi (~$30-$60) in Austin. I ordered the 10 piece sushi combo and was blown away by every single piece, I was especially happy that they included tuna chutoro and uni in that selection. I also really enjoyed their shishito peppers and agedashi tofu. Service was also quick and attentive. sushi yume definitely is the epitome of excellent sushi without breaking the bank.
