Iwa Ya - Houston

Excellent Japanese cuisine and sushi for the price! To get water, tea and soup is all self-service. It can be fairly packed at times, but service is usually fast. This was opened by the OG Hokkaido owners and I followed them here. Iwa Ya is always strong!

I wanted to try this place, so I got a Bentobox. The food was exceptionally fresh. Love everything on this, especially the fish. So moist and easy I will only return for this fish. Other tables seem to enjoy sushi, so I have to try them next time. What a great place really reminds me of my Tokyo trip! Very recommended! Update: wanted the grilled fish, so I went to dinner today and try the sushi roll. It was really good. I came at 6:00 and it was a short line, but half an hour later there was a whole house and the people had to wait. So early is better than later for dinner. Very recommended!

It's like 80 degrees in here damp as . I didn't feel comfortable eating what should be temperature controlled sushi, so I ordered a Katsu extra dry. Old glasses taste soap soaps, at least they are clean :? If someone likes a lot about quality, that's your place.

Came here for the first time with some friends and was not disappointed. Sit down, order your food and help yourself to water, tea or free soup to go with your meal. Overall, the food was very delicious. If you love sushi, this is a great place to stop by!

First time to try this place. You order at the counter after seating yourself, and they bring your order to you. There is a self-service counter and there are water and tea, also miso soup, corn soup, and red bean soup (that last one is sweet for customers. Water and tea are available, too. Overall I liked the food very much and the pricing was very reasonable. Selection is some typical Japanese fare. We got tonkatsu and chicken katsu bowl and both were very good. I wanted to try the Bento Box I had seen in reviews but I did not see it on the menu (maybe it is on the secret menu?! I asked one staffer about it and he said they didn't have it (maybe he misunderstood me . I asked another staffer later and she said they did have it so I want to come back again and try it.
