Origami Japanese Cuisine & Sushi Bar

We stopped by Origami later in the evening around sunset-in which the ambiance instilled such joy. The atmosphere was wonderful, calming, and felt familiar and welcoming. The menu was simple, pricing fair, and best of all, the food was amazing. We ordered Green tea, served in a kettle piping hot (wonderful!), Miso, and 3 Rolls: A.T Roll, Teriyaki Roll, and the Spider Roll. Although the Spider Roll was not for me-all 3 were very fresh, beyond tasty, and worth every. single. penny. Our server was so kind and patient, even apologizing for a roll taking longer than expected (which was not long at all!!) We are definitely coming here again, and if it remains as consistent, it will be my favorite place to eat sushi in Corpus Christi.

Food is delicious and server was very helpful! The inside is a little too dark for me

Nice and quiet dining area. Fresh sushi and the best hand rolls I've had in a while. I ordered Salmon Roe Nigiri We had the shrimp croquette as an appetizer and they were also freshly prepared. Dinner portions include both soup and salad.

Misoshiru was not tasty. Not hot, too much tofu which was not cut evenly. Raw sliced green onions in misoshiru. Never had raw green onions in misoshiru in my life before. Any instant misoshiru tastes better. My friend could not eat his misoshiru. Rice was not cooked right. I would rather eat rice at home. Salmon was very tasty with sauce. Shrimp looked good but did not have much taste. Tempura was just like average home made, not a professional standard. Shrimp tempura was over cooked.

We originally wanted to try this place for the sea urchin, but unfortunately, they were out at this time. But the rest of the food was amazing! We did start with some escolar sashimi, which was delicious. I had the Origami Seafood Plate, and my husband had the Seafood Platter. Both were very good. They both came with soup and salad, with a nice dressing. The sauces on my plate really tied everything together. We definitely would like to go back and try some of their other dishes and rolls.
