Sushi by Scratch Restaurants: Austin sits at 603 Brazos St in Downtown Austin, part of chef Phillip Frankland Lee's Scratch Restaurants group. The counter seats a maximum of 10 guests, and the omakase-inspired tasting menu runs $195 per person, covering a sequence of signature nigiri bites and one dessert. Beverages and any extra bites are offered a la carte, and the menu is available in English.
Three seatings run nightly: 4:30pm, 6:45pm and 9:00pm Sunday through Tuesday, and 5:00pm, 7:15pm and 9:30pm Wednesday through Saturday. Guests are invited to arrive 30 minutes before their reservation for a complimentary welcome cocktail and canapé service. A 20% service charge is added to all bills. Reservations require a $25-per-person deposit, which is non-refundable but can be applied as a bill credit toward a future visit if changed at least 48 hours ahead; cancellations inside that window, or no-shows, are charged the full $195 menu price. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may mean missing part of the meal.
There is no dress code, and all ages are welcome, though every guest, regardless of age, must order the full tasting menu, since no children's or a la carte options exist. The kitchen cannot accommodate mushroom or fish allergies and offers no vegetarian substitutions, but it can adjust for gluten, dairy, and shellfish restrictions. Parking is available on Brazos Street, East 6th Street, or in nearby public paid lots. Reservations are handled through SevenRooms.
