Sushiholic — Restaurant in San Antonio

The food was okay. This isn't about the food, though. The place was empty at the time, so we figured we'd be in and out fairly quickly. The lady was very slow to take our order and seemed a bit "off," with little to no knowledge on the menu.

We order our food and sit down. As we wait (a long while), I decided to grab my daughters leotard for gymnastics out of my car to change her in the restroom as we were running short on time. We walk back inside and head to the restroom to get her changed. The chef (I think) watched us walk by and said to me, "you think you're special?" I WAS STUNNED. I said, "I'm sorry?" I was hoping it was his heavy accent and I was mistaken with what I heard. And he said again, "you think you're special?!" I said, "excuse me?" I'm in DISBELIEF. He said a THIRD time, "you think you're special?" Mind you, the tone was extremely rude, too. A lady working there whispered something in his ear and pointed to my table. I imagine she reminded him I was a customer... He apologized very shortly and mentioned people from next door (Crumbl Cookie) often come in and try to use their restrooms. There's a sign on the restaurant door that states "restrooms for customers only."

Whether I'm a customer or not, you don't talk to me, a mom, and my 4 year old daughter that way. And how are you not paying attention to the ONLY customers you have in the restaurant? Let me also add that when we received our food, we were missing items. The lady that took our order that I mentioned seemed "off," was very confused, apologetic, and says, "I'm sorry... I'm sick." Blames her being SICK for the reason she forgot some of our order... as she sets down our food. Needless to say, It was hard to enjoy our meal after all of this.

I don't recommend it here. We will never go back. I'm 33 years old and this is the only bad review I've written in my life, thus far. Lol, I just had to. It was a very...

Atmosphere: A delightful little restaurant that brings a taste of the Japanese dining experience to the heart of Texas. A small but welcoming bar with plenty of tables and all the decorations to bring the aesthetics of Japan to Texas.

Service: The service was excellent and extremely friendly and if you are ever unsure what to eat all you have to do is ask. on the bar the Cheifs are happy to have small talk while working or answer food questions and the wait staff are quick and responsive. One thing to note non alcoholic drinks are self service via bottled drinks at the front of the bar so grab one before sitting down to enjoy your meal.

Food: I was completely take by supprise when I found a delightful seasonal Chirashizushi served full of fresh high grade seafood and arranged beautifuly for my enjoyment. In addition while not on the menu the restaurant does serve sushi in the traditional makizushi and nigirizushi styles all you have to do is ask.

Conclusion: Sushiholic is a great way to experience a Japanese sushi bar with a simple menu and great food. The staff were absolutely delightful and had plenty of suggestions on what Sake(Rice wine) to try and how it pairs with the sushi. As well as, being friendly and extremely attentive to the customers through the restaurant creating a great friendly environment.

(Family friendly - Yes) (Take out friendly -Yes) (Vegan friendly - not sure but there were a few items just ask) (Don't like seafood - No problem they have a wide selection of non seafood...

The staff was nice and really welcoming. Staff gets a 4. Food was ok (3). When ordering, you are sat at a table and then you look over the menu. Then you get in line to order. If you just want water it will be in water bottle form. I always venture for a new sushi restaurant and I've reviewed inexpensive to majorly expensive so as this one was near our area I figured we would try it. Whenever I have sushi, I always get a chirashi if it's offered. It's a large bowl of fish and things depending on where you go with rice under it. This one was good. Quick call outs, the fish cuts where all over the place. Some really thin some generous. The cucumbers had an odd color to them but they were pickled and tasted better than they looked. The octopus in the chirashi was underwhelming. It was 2 pieces but one piece was tiny and the other piece was like a sliver. I had to wonder what they were thinking when serving it but I did eat the one tiny piece (You can see the portion on the upper right hand side of the picture in-between the imitation crab and ginger). My husband ordered the soft shell crab for an appetizer and I ordered us some miso soups. My husband didn't care for the crab, I liked it. He thought the soup was not hot, it was warm and I ate mine and the rest of his. His roll, the voodoo roll had a good spice to it. I ordered a side of spicy mayo and it was pretty spicy. Haven't had a spicy mayo in all the sushi places that I have gone to that actually had a kick to...
