Shokunin - Austin

Shokunin is the Japanese term for “master craftsman,” but here it also serves as our playful nod to the sushi chefs and neighborhood spots that shaped California’s dining culture in the 1990s. Our 26-seat restaurant is a small, casual, and vibrant space — the kind of place where the pace is fast, the food is fresh, and the atmosphere is all about good times. We honor the Shokunin spirit — dedication, skill, and pride in the craft — while serving it up with a lighter touch. Think bold flavors, fresh fish, a splash of nostalgia, and a whole lot of fun. Shokunin is a place to pull up a chair, laugh with friends, and enjoy sushi the way it was meant to be: lively, approachable, and unforgettable.
