While exploring Austin’s food culture, sushi restaurants might be a delightful surprise. Austin is a highly landlocked city with a relatively tiny population, yet it boasts a remarkable number of excellent sushi restaurants run by top chefs who dedicate their days to learning and mastering the art of Japanese sushi.

Before we get onto the best sushi restaurants in Austin, let’s see the most popular Sushi dishes:

  • Rainbow Roll: This roll not only offers every flavor and texture you could imagine but also makes for the finest food photo ever on Instagram. It is a platter of multiple-colored rolls that completely outdoes other rolls.
  • California Roll: With its variety of flavors and textures, a California roll will transport you to heaven and back. With the flavor of the crab, the crispness of the cucumber, and the smoothness of the avocado, it has the ideal balance of tastes.
  • Spicy Tuna Roll: Since sushi is undoubtedly an art form, any artist will tell you that less is more in this situation as well. You’ll be craving more as a result of the delicious flavor created by the blend of spicy tuna.
  • Spider Roll: The tempura crab and spice give the spider roll a lovely kick, and the cucumber and avocado elegantly balance that off. It’s kind of like the older sibling of the California roll.
  • Shrimp Tempura Roll: What more could you ask for in a sushi roll than the perfect mixture of two food types—avocado and shrimp that makes it crispy and delicious. Another unusual ingredient is eel sauce, which, like marmite, is either loved or loathed. Give this roll a chance and you won’t regret it!
