Doesn't get better than this.
This was my second time at Toshokan but first at the new location. The food is absolutely incredible for starters that I wish it was easier to get a reservation...I would splurge on this meal at least once a month. The fact he doesn't have a Mic

We've managed to eat here twice in the past few years and by no stretch of imagine was it easy to get reservations, was a concerted group effort both times that required luck as much as anything else. Starting out, it's not cheap, and if y
Rating: 4.
8/5 Toshokan is a speakeasy-style omakase spot hidden behind a bookshelf inside the Holey Moley Golf Club. Chef and owner Saine Wong designed the experience to be highly personal and intimate, with only two seatings per night and a maximum of six g
Such a fantastic dining experience.
In a post-Covid world where I have anxiety being in crowded places, this was the perfect, intimate dining experience to enjoy superb sushi and unwind after a hectic week at work. The service was incredible and the staff and chef really make you feel
We love omakase and knew we had to try this speakeasy style
We love omakase and knew we had to try this speakeasy style spot as soon as we could get a reservation (this is definitely difficult to achieve)! First, the great things - the staff/chef. They're incredible and truly make the experience a littl
Delicious food, but could be better
WARNING: you will smell like smoke when you leave this restaurant/bar. Plan accordingly! The food was delicious, and that is what matters most to me. Some servings were not traditional, but the chef clearly knows his flavors and, as such, I enjoyed
Delightful! This was my favorite omakase experience ever.
The food was great, but the service is what made it exceptional. Chef Saine is so charismatic and you can tell he loves what he does. This was worth the wait for the reservation. I'm so happy we were able to go!
Cute omakase hidden behind a bookshelf inside Holey Moley,
Cute omakase hidden behind a bookshelf inside Holey Moley, the golf course! Love the bookshelf idea since toshokan means library in Japanese. I heard that it was hard to get a reservation here and was actually on the waitlist. Luckily, I was able t
Meh. Toshokan is hidden behind a bookshelf inside Holey
Meh. Toshokan is hidden behind a bookshelf inside Holey Moley, a golf course. I love the entrance that is hidden behind a bookshelf as toshokan in Japanese means library. The food is not bad, but there is nothing special. I don't think the price

I have been trying to get in here for years and it was definitely worth the wait and the price. A 6 person Omakase is such a fun intimate experience! And wow the food is definitely going to deliver. These were some of the best bites I've had. I
Wow. What a great experience. I need to come back. I've
Wow. What a great experience. I need to come back. I've eaten a lot of sushi in a lot of different cities and countries. I think toshokan is in my top three favorites in Austin. I'd say it's in my top ten out of all the places I'v
Hurtful and rude
Hoping to indulge in the widely celebrated dinner experience at Otoko, my wife and I forked over our $500 payment a month in advance, all in anticipation of a memorable wedding anniversary evening. What we received, however, was far from the luxury a
Phenomenal Omakase experience.
....especially this being my first time trying Omakase. Each course was a work of art, beautifully put together, showcasing fresh, top-notch ingredients. Chef Saine Wong and his staff were very attentive and such a pleasure to be around. I will adm
AMAZING EXPERIENCE! The ambiance was great.
It was lively and filled with so much revelry for only having 6 guests at a time. Each course was meticulously done and was delicious. Chef Saine, Nadia, and Ian were attentive and a joy to be around. They catered to our allergies and dislikes very w
Saine Wong, is the Executive Chef and Owner.
Originally hails from Los Angeles and moved here during the pandemic. He curates the meal by talking you the journey of the ingredients and menu. He has a map with pins that highlight where what places he's been and another color of where the evenin
Amazing experience.
10/10 sushi and the chef is really friendly. The drinks are amazing and overall it's a wonderful experience. Only thing I don't recommend is doing the optional add on dishes at the end - it was meant to be $300 for 14 plates each which is fair for

I had been unlucky snagging rezzys here since they first opened and I was tired of losing sleep on the midnight drop. They switched the times to the morning so I figured I would try again and I finally got lucky and snagged some! We went back in Augu
6/5 best dining experience of our life.
Intimate and close event. Great, amazing, bartender and chefs. Well educated on the cultural background of the food they are preparing, and beautiful presentation. It is expensive, so please expect $135+ per person minimum, and can exceed $400+ quick
Best fish I've ever eaten.
Best oyster. Best steak bite. You name it. This was the most incredible sushi I've had. I've been to Nobu, Uchi, Uchiko. Nothing compares to this and the mix of flavors in every bite. Had the sake pairing which was nice as well. It was pricey! But I
Great Food, Service/Experience lacking given price tag
As others have mentioned, the food was amazing, but the service is quite subpar. It is an odd paradox of fine dining restaurant, and casual service - not what one expects for $500pp
Nothing to complain about here! Another great omakase
Nothing to complain about here! Another great omakase choice in Austin. Casual vibes, modern and fun twists, nice people, good food, you just can't go wrong! The only difficult part to swallow is how much you have to fight for a reservation, but Chef
I am so grateful to have had a chance to dine at Toshokan
I am so grateful to have had a chance to dine at Toshokan ("library" in Japanese), one of the hardest reservations to score in Austin. I love the speakeasy feel, an intimate 6-seat sushi counter hidden behind a bookshelf. We were first gr
The Good: :: it's a local business! :: it's got this
The Good: :: it's a local business! :: it's got this great speakeasy-style vibe to it without being pretentious :: intimate experience--there is limited seating (6 diners at a time only) but it feels cozy and accessible, and conversation flows
All I'll say here is Toshokan is ABSOLUTELY worth the hype!
All I'll say here is Toshokan is ABSOLUTELY worth the hype! I'm not entirely clear why Austin has spurred the creation of multiple highly specialized omakase eateries the past few years, but I've dined at most of them, and Toshokan is hands-down the
I have had the pleasure of enjoying every omakase
I have had the pleasure of enjoying every omakase experience that ATX has to offer and I was thrilled to finally be able to add Toshokan to my list. While there are not too many differences between your omakase experience's, what stands out the most
My friend made a reservation and invited me to join.
I had no idea it was a private omakase experience until we arrived and was blown away. The vibe of the chef, staff, and our dinner mates was so welcoming and the intimate space was perfect. The food was incredible. Every bite made my mouth tingle wit
More than anything, what deserves the 5 stars at this
More than anything, what deserves the 5 stars at this restaurant is the ambience! Not only is it hidden behind a bookshelf with a true speakeasy experience and a welcome cocktail while you wait to be let in, but also the staff are super friendly, the
Fresh, Flavorful, Tasty, Trendy, Expensive…but Worth It
Otoko, and it’s collocated bar Watertrade, combine to provide a luxury dining experience in South Central Austin that is a foodie must. Granted, it’s an expensive treat, but the unique flavors and food preparation make it worthwhile….though sit
Wow! What an experience! I came here for a special event -
Wow! What an experience! I came here for a special event - Sushi with Strangers (6 total seats where you could only make a reservation for yourself) and it was perfect. It's so evident all the attention Chef Saine puts into each course of the Omakase
Great food, great service, outstanding setting.
We bought 2 seats at a charity auction and had a fantastic experience. The chef/owner and his team were all great. We loved every piece of sushi they served. The sake pairing was really tasty as well. Overall, a truly unique and intimate dining exper

There was nothing about our experience at Toshokan that wasn't perfect. A true 11/10 experience. Every single bite of the 14 course Omakase was masterfully crafted, carefully conceptualized, and executed PERFECTLY. From the flown in freshness of t

I almost don't want to go into a lot of details here and ruin any surprises. Just know this, it's amazing. Hands down one of the best experiences you'll have in Austin food wise. The attention to detail, hospitality, and food will leave you wanting t

Nehmen wir an, Peter hat einen großartigen Morgen und beschließt, seine drei Freunde am selben Tag um 18 Uhr ins Toshokan Austin einzuladen.
Er sieht auf der Website des Restaurants nach und stellt fest, dass keine Reservierungen verfügbar sind. Dann schaut er auf die Toshokan Austin-Seite bei AppointmentTrader, findet aber auch dort keine Nutzereinträge.
Genau hier kommt der von der Community getriebene Bietprozess ins Spiel.
Peter kann ein Gebot auf AppointmentTrader abgeben, das als Belohnung für jedes Community-Mitglied dient, das daran arbeitet, die Reservierung zu sichern. AT benachrichtigt dann erfahrene Nutzer, die helfen könnten.
Schritt-für-Schritt-Anleitung
1.) Festlegen einer Belohnung (Gebot)
* AppointmentTrader nutzt historische Daten, um eine angemessene Belohnung für das Sichern einer Reservierung zu empfehlen – sagen wir $100.
* Peter möchte unbedingt hingehen, also erhöht er das Gebot (bzw. die Belohnung) auf $200.
* Zu diesem Zeitpunkt existiert die Reservierung noch nicht.
2.) Ein Community-Nutzer übernimmt das Gebot
* PerceptiveWash44, ein erfahrener AT-Nutzer mit einer starken Erfolgsbilanz beim Sichern von Reservierungen und wenigen Rückerstattungsanfragen, erhält eine Benachrichtigung über Peters Gebot in Höhe von $200.
* PerceptiveWash44 übernimmt das Gebot und arbeitet nun daran, die Reservierung zu sichern.
* Peter kann sich jetzt an PerceptiveWash44 wenden, wenn er Fragen hat, während PerceptiveWash44 das Gebot bearbeitet.
3.) Die Reservierung finden
* PerceptiveWash44 nutzt nun seine Kontakte im Toshokan Austin, um den Tisch zu sichern.
* Wenn er erfolgreich den Tisch für vier um 18 Uhr sichert, erhält Peter eine Bestätigung, dass die Reservierung gemacht wurde.
* Gelingt es PerceptiveWash44 nicht, die Reservierung zu sichern, wird das Gebot wieder freigegeben, sodass ein anderer Nutzer es versuchen kann.
4.) Bezahlung & Schutz
* Sobald die Reservierung sicher ist, erhält PerceptiveWash44 die Belohnung von $200, die dem AT-Guthaben von PerceptiveWash44 gutgeschrieben wird; dort verwalten Nutzer ihr Geld selbst und können per Banküberweisung, PayPal oder Zelle auszahlen lassen.
* Jetzt kann Peter das Abendessen mit seinen Freunden im Toshokan Austin genießen!
