Why You Should Go: In an attempt to satiate your love of Japanese cuisine, you've attempted to roll your own sushi, sauté your own stir-fry, and chop your own tartare. But no matter how you slice it, your home-cooked dishes always seem to lack that special punch. Some things are best left to the professionals, like the culinary masters at Rising Sun Sushi & Asian Fusion Restaurant in Humble.

What You Should Know: A friendly atmosphere, attentive staff and creative menu separate Rising Sun from all the rest. Classic dishes like Yaki Udon and Beef Teriyaki meet unusual Japanese plates like the Macadamia Crusted Halibut and the Black Angus Rib-Eye Garlic Steak. Of course the main draw here is the sushi – prepared fresh daily – and you’ll find all your favorite rolls, plus innovative new options with ingredients like crawfish, Doritos flakes, jalapeno and kiwi.
