[NEED]Sushi restaurant for an alumni event

I think you're looking for Uptown Sushi. Its a trendier sushi restaruant for that type of stuff. Expensive but decent.

 

How many people are you expecting?

Miyako on Kirby might be good. Good sushi, convenient location and they have a separate, dining area you might be able to reserve.

 

How about Kona Grill in the Galleria? http://www.konagrill.com/

They have a nice reverse happy hour that starts at 9pm and their sushi and drinks are good.

 

Miyako had a reverse happy hour as well, the last time I was there.

 

You should try Crave Sushi in Midtown, they give out free drinks for the ladies from 5 - 7 on Wednesdays.

I took my GF there and she especially liked the specialty drinks.

 

CRAVE sushi has the worst & most overpriced sushi i've ever tried in houston. any of the following places are better than CRAVE, i vouch for them from personal experience: Miyako, Azuma, Sushi King, Blue Fish, Banzai. i've heard things about Uptown Sushi & Oiishii (sp?) but haven't tried them, yet. i've never felt more disappointed and cheated when leaving a restaurant - any restaurant, period - than when i left CRAVE last month. my first and last time i'll ever step in there, again.

 

How about RA sushi. It's pretty spacious, has a bar, good atmosphere.

 

I have never been there, but it looks like a pretty cool place.

 

I second this. Ra Sushi is a nice sushi place to mingle

 

It tasted alright at crave, but it could have been cause we went there at 3 in the morning.

 

I like uptown sushi the best.

Ra is more of a party atmosphere.

 

I vote RA Sushi. I love it there. I go quite often

Soma in the Washington ave area is a pretty hot spot with decent sushi and a good atmosphere. The have a private upstairs area that would be good for hosting an event.

Galleria or Midtown? They aren't close to each other. What about all the space in between?

 

Maybe they can get takeout and eat on the 59 feeder road.

 

you have to put parking into consideration also whether you want a more quite cozy place or more of a loud rowdy club atmosphere

 

At RA Sushi, you will probably have to valet.

 

forgot to mention RA sushi - i've been there twice, and was not totally impressed. with the food, that is. the decor of the place is nice, as one of those see-and-be-seen places, but the food wasn't really good at all. you're paying for the place, not the food, at RA. and parking in the Highland Village area is impossible.
