Normally, I wouldn’t recommend taking raw fish to go, but desperate times (ahem, COVID-19) call for tasty to-go measures.

Here are 5 options for sushi to-go in Houston!

Note: I know we are supposed to be hunkering down and of course I recommend doing just that, but consider ordering curbside pick-up or delivery directly from the Houston restaurant. That way, the aren’t having to cut in the delivery app and driver. Just a thought!

Hando

I’m super into the hand roll trend — think: sushi burrito. My fave spots is actually just down the street from my house (am so lucky). I adore Hando’s toro, scallop, and crab rolls — get ’em cut or not! Also HIGHLY recommend getting a sake juice box (yes, this is real, and really good.)

Sushi King

Happy hour anyone? Yeah, Sushi King recognizes that we need happy hour now more than ever. Praise be.

Uchi

A classic! Terribly sad that we can’t enjoy social hour in the same way, but you can make a “curbside reservation” at Uchi. Pick from the full menu available for drive thru daily — they turned their valet line into to-go! A little birdie told me you get a gift card with a takeout order, which just sounds like we need to be going to Uchi more than once. PRO TIP: Wine, sake, and beer is 25% off!

Roka Akor

Roka Akor is making it so that you can drink and do good! Any sake or wine purchase sends $20 to its employee relief fund. Call in your order daily from 4 to 9 pm (except Mondays) and they’ll bring it out to your car.

Kokoro

Can we talk about food halls for a second? They’ve been hit in a weird way — so much of the food hall is about the experience. Bravery Chef Hall has created a virtual work around for the time being with an online order page, which includes the very yummy Kokoro.
