Sushi Rebel

This sushi restaurant is a great addition to City Place. The interior is decorated beautifully and has a great atmosphere. The staff are quick and attentive. The sushi was delicious, the best I’ve had in the Spring area.

Sushi Rebel in City Place is hands down the best sushi spot in North Houston. Very similar menu to sister restaurant Uptown Sushi inside the loop. Kobe cubes are unbelievable, fantastic sushi selection and some really great craft cocktails. City Place is an incredible atmosphere, especially during the holidays with all of the Christmas lights.

This place is so delicious! We’ve tried the Kobe cubes, avocado bite and the lobster/shrimp rolls! All exceptional! Definitely an upscale sushi experience worth a try if you like sushi! Very fresh and exceptional flavor combos!

This was a beautiful restaurant with great decor and lighting. I would however give it 3.5 stars, but I am giving it the benefit of the doubt with 4 for being pretty new. The positive: the overall flavor, dish creativity and freshness of ingredients was very good. My wife and I enjoyed everything we ordered and the plating was very appetizing. The negative: The food was very slow, it took 45 minutes for our first appetizer. There were only 2 servers working the whole floor and bar, so they weren't very attentive to the tables. Drinks in martini glasses or coups are not double strained, so they have tiny ice throughout which is not ideal. We were not given side plates with our appetizer. There was only 1 sushi chef, and at least 3 kitchen staff that we counted. The staff should be more evenly split in a sushi restaurant or cross trained so they can help where the tickets are printing. This place has great potential. But they currently lack the close management and attention to detail required to take it to the next level.

I am so excited for Sushi Rebel to be at City Place! The ambiance is perfect, they’ve built a beautiful dining space. I enjoyed a quiet meal at the sushi bar and although they were busy for their very first night of business, I felt very welcome and cared for. The miso soup was some of the best I’ve ever had and you can tell their ingredients are top notch. Pricing is very reasonable, I was happy to get an appetizer, small plate, and sushi roll with a glass of wine.

Welcome to City Place and I can’t wait to visit again soon!!
