Reviews for East Side King in Houston, TX
Definitely a hit and miss with this place. You have to know what to order. If not, you’ll get stuck with something you will... not like. Do not get the buns. I ordered all three (chicken, pork, and avocado) because I wanted to try each one. Every singleone was sooo dry and bland. Nothing special and not worth the price. Salmon and tuna nigiri were okay. Kind of hard to mess thatup unless you’re stingy with the protein but they sliced decent portions of it. Do order the takimaki hand rolls!!! I orderedthe shrimp tempura, spicy salmon, and spicy tuna. Each roll was flavorful, and I would definitely order again! Lastly, servicewas kind of awkward. The young lady taking my order seemed like she did not know the menu and was not focusing on her job. I hadto repeat my order numerous of times for her and to make sure it was not messed up. What really made me confused was when I paidfor one drink, and she was going to give me THREE cups.....I told her I just paid for one, and she said “oh, I did notremember”.....when I literally just ordered....other than that, I’d just come back for the takimaki Read more
Incredible. I got the omakase dinner. So fun to watch the chef and taste fresh-grated wasabi
Delicious food! We got the tuna and salmon bowls, and both were very fresh tasting and yummy. I thought it was on the expensive... side for how little fish was actually in each bowl, but I would definitely recommend to anyone planning to visit Post. Read more
Handrolls was bleh.. Picture looks better than it taste. Fish cut was dry and below sushi quality. They thought by putting a... lot of sauce on it would mask the subpar quality cut they put in the rolls. But it didn’t. Should went to a real sushirestaurant. Read more
The menu has no description of the food, which makes it difficult to choose. Luckily I knew what I wanted, but it was 9 dollars... for one and 12 for three. Kind of off. My issue with this place wasn't the ordering online, instead of at the counter. Itdoesn't state you have to wait for a text and when we asked about our order the guy was rude. My biggest problem was the guycutting the fish and his hygiene. He took out a produce box of lettuce and placed it on top of a big cut of fish. When he wasdone he moved it to the counter rubbed the fish with a dirty towel and picked off some pieces left behind from the produce box.The BAO we ordered was okay. The bread comes from a bag from the grocery store which was saddening. Read more
Their new omakase is amazing!! Would recommend it to everyone! ???? It’s a sushi bar where the chef prepares each sushi one at... a time, and they’re so delicious. Read more
Rude! They were nice at first and showed me pics of food but never said anything was spicy. I ordered Brussels sprout bowl it... was so spicy I couldn’t eat it. When I told her she said I should have looked it yup on the internet. Even though she toldme about it and showed me pics never mentioning spice. The menu doesn’t say it at all anywhere either.

Grocery store sushi has fresher fish. Any gas station in japan has better food. Asked for no mayo and everything came slathered... anyway. When i pointed it out the server, he said that he would the owner would be angry, and they were to busy to remake it.Hot dishes were cold, raw dishes were warm. They have the audacity to ask for tips and then have signs asking you to clean upafter yourself. Owners should be embarrassed. Read more
