Best Japanese Food in Zilker, Austin, TX

A handroll bar rooted in balance, restraint, and craft. James Beard Award–winning Chef Paul Qui's vision — alive on South Lamar.
Beautiful and Intentional

Beautiful and Intentional

Chef Paul Qui has carried this idea since his early days at Uchi in 2003 — sushi as both craft and visual experience, closer to art than food. Kitsu Nori is that vision, finally alive on South Lamar. Inspired by ikebana and kintsugi — balance, restraint, and intention in every bite. Nothing accidental. Everything transformed.
