    The music was SO loud. It was a small crowd of families. I would think the music should not be that loud ever- it doesn’t create an “energetic” environment. We are not there to party or dance we are there to eat and converse with friends and family. It’s impossible when shouting. Also this is a residential neighborhood. Keep music down at nights. Thank you

    Best sushi in Houston Texas! The japanese fish arrivals are just perfect and vary with the seasons. The more sophisticated menu dishes such as the Kampachio or Hamachio that combine fish with citrus are just a delight. If you are into meat the hot rock beaf just melts in your mouth. Even the deserts are delicious at Kuu! The only small downside is that it is a little bit expensive, but the quality of the ingredients just makes it all worth it!
