EXPERIENCE

Sushi Haya’s Tomball Parkway restaurant is a Japanese all-you-can-eat spot in northwest Houston, with sushi, sashimi and hibachi brought to the table. The food gives equal reason to consider the sushi counter and the kitchen: an order of fish can share the meal with something cooked, with both prepared for your table.

The patio gives this branch a particular appeal. Covered seating, rows of Japanese lanterns and strings of lights create a festive atmosphere, with the parking area and road beyond. What a treat to have outdoor unlimited dining when the weather cooperates.

Inside or out, the ordered AYCE format keeps the meal at your table, with servers bringing selections from the sushi counter and kitchen. The combination works for a group with different preferences: someone can concentrate on rolls while another gives the cooked dishes more attention. Hibachi is part of the kitchen offering here, so the meal can include a warm main dish alongside the smaller sushi orders.

Lunch and dinner have their own AYCE selections, and the restaurant also serves à la carte. The useful distinction is between the current unlimited menu and the broader ordering menu, especially for anyone arriving with a particular specialty roll in mind. Sushi Haya’s appeal is straightforward: a sushi-centered meal with a cooked-food companion, in a casual neighborhood restaurant that also offers a place to sit outdoors.

FOOD

Sushi and sashimi provide the main fish selection, with rolls and hibachi giving the unlimited meal different kinds of dishes to work with. Salmon, tuna and yellowtail are among the dinner choices to look for, alongside cooked selections such as shrimp, eel and tamago. Lunch and dinner have different AYCE selections, so check the current sheet when a particular fish or preparation is the reason for the outing.

Simple tuna and salmon rolls sit alongside spicy preparations and sashimi, giving the sushi order a range from rice-filled rolls to sliced fish. At dinner, that leaves room to compare several fish without making every round another specialty roll.

Short ribs are a cooked choice to look for at the Tomball Parkway branch, with steak another dinner option alongside the sushi. Hibachi is part of the core AYCE offering and gives the meal a warm counterpart to the fish.

For a separate à la carte kitchen order, gyoza are pan-fried pork-and-vegetable dumplings. Shrimp and vegetable tempura add battered, fried preparations, while shrimp shumai are steamed. These are choices from the separately priced menu, with different preparations to accompany a fish order.

The à la carte specialty rolls are more elaborate. Sushi Haya Roll combines fried crawfish and avocado with spicy tuna and other toppings. New Surf & Turf puts seared Angus beef and spicy garlic sauce over spicy tuna. Lake Charles brings crawfish, cream cheese and jalapeño into a fried roll.

Green-tea ice cream is one dessert to ask about at the end of an AYCE dinner, with flavors and availability subject to the day’s selection. After the fish, rice and cooked dishes, a small ice cream makes a simple finish.
