While I have brand loyalty to a certain hospitality group in Houston, and the market is saturated, I am pleased to have found another go-to spot for high-quality omakase. Hidden can be found through a non-descript door of the center that houses Burger Chan and Conservatory. Hidden is familial and customers are seated in a U-shape counter. The chefs and hosts are engaging and super friendly. Hidden is BYOB with a corking fee. We had an 18-course omakase. Dishes range from oyster, nigiri, crudo, handroll, cooked items, apps, and a dessert. It was difficult for me to decide what my favorites were... they were delicious in their own unique way. While one reviewer disapproved of the toppings such as truffle butter and chili garlic, I found them to be pleasing and didn't feel like the fish was overpowered by them. The fish were buttery, fresh and flavorful. Worth a visit.

Huge disappointment! Food: 3/5 Premium quality / unique fish from Japan. They try to showcase a variety of fish sourced from different regions of Japan. Unfortunately, some of the toppings such as " truffle butter" "chili garlic" overpower the taste of the fish. Also, they suggested we eat each piece right when it's served to taste it at the best temperature, yet, one of the nigiri required to be " torched" and there was only one torch available so the nigiri has been sitting there in front of us for a good five minutes before it can served. Service: 2/5 We went in for the 6:30 seating. The next seating is at 9pm. Toward the last 2 to three pieces we started feeling rushed 1. They started pouring larger and larger pours of alcohol we brought ( this is a BYOB restaurant) into our glasses 2. The check came out THE SAME TIME with the dessert. Yup. " Here's your last course, and here's your check" Other guests noticed it too and asked if they have another group coming in, that's how we found out we were being kicked out so they can get ready for the next seating. In the end, we were not able to finish the wine we brought, plus they TURNED ON THE LIGHTS " Ladies and gentlemen, party time over! Club Hidden is now closed let's go let's go" It is uncommon for omakase restaurants to serve two groups per night but I have never felt so rushed, highly recommend they work on better time management. Ambiance: 2/5 For the same reason above. I went there expecting a omakase dining experience not a night club

We had the pleasure of dining here on Valentine's Day and had a phenomenal time. There was nothing cookie cutter about the experience. The chefs are interactive, the owner supports her staff, and there was a unique personal touch that you really don't find many other places. Everything from the selection of fish to the complementary champagne, roses for the ladies, and shots we shared with the staff made our Valentine's Day special. The personal touch felt genuine like each member of the staff cared and not like they're just paid to be nice. They care about the food they serve and they know their trade. We enjoyed great conversation, stories, food, drink, and laughs. Thanks again for what y'all do!

This was a lot of fun! The experience from start to finish was delightful, imaginative and intimate. The food was on point and very elevated as expected at this price point. The service was fantastic, as the setup allows for the chef to have plenty of interaction with the guests and Chef Marcos was very engaging and enthusiastic about explaining the different techniques, fish and his own sushi history with us as we dined. My wife and I are no novices to sushi, omakase or tasting menus in general and this experience was both unique and memorable. I should note the restaurant is BYOB, they did share a sake shot welcome cheers for everyone and the passion fruit mocktail was excellent.

5/5 stars. We enjoyed a delightful 15-course omakase at this restaurant during the 9 PM dinner service. Fortunately, it turned out to be a smaller group, just five people, creating an intimate setting that felt like having a private chef. Chef Marcos made us feel at home - he was friendly, informative, and willingly explained the different varieties of fish, the cuts, and the preparation methods for many of the dishes. Even at the end of the service, he took extra time to show us the dry aging process of the tuna we had that day. Highly recommend this place; it definitely is worth the money. We left full of food and information.

Been looking forward to this place for a long time, very pleased with my experience and one of the best meals I've had in 2023. The name doesn't lie, it's tucked away in a shopping strip center, inside features a very intimate (yet spacious) setting with bar-style seating. 15 course menu with a la carte options, BYOB (with a corking fee), it's a bit on the pricier side and we did several add-ons (pictures). Our host/hostess were very friendly and engaging, ensuring our sake were filled throughout the evening and we were delighted they joined us in several toasts. I enjoyed the fish selections and the explanation of each dish, each bite tasted fresh and the presentation is probably one of the best I've seen in Houston Overall, one of the more memorable Omakase experiences I've had, worth a visit for a special occasion! The price tag is a bit hefty with the add-on charges/fees but it's a vibe.

My taste buds are still dancing with the amazing flavors of each course. Everything was more than well executed and you can tell how much thought went to each serving. This is an experience like none other.

The food was great, came fast, and the workers were all happy to jump in and provide more info on the ingredients. My only gripe is that the music was super loud, so it felt I had to raise my voice just to converse with the person next to me. Great experience overall though, especially for a special event. Don't be scared by the unassuming exterior, you'll be let in at your time.A few reviews also talk about how some people didn't like some of the items. That's fair (tastes are subjective), but keep in mind that this is the hallmark of omakase. You're leaving everything up to the chef. So if you're a picky eater, it's probably not the best place.
