Midori Sushi

A sushi trip to North Austin requires attention to distance: US-183, also known as Research Boulevard, links shopping centres and residential areas across a spread-out city. Visit Austin points to a broad Asian food scene along this corridor, including Japanese cooking, and Midori’s address is in Anderson Arbor, away from downtown’s compact walking routes. The restaurant therefore pairs best with errands in the northwest or a drive, rather than an improvised stop between central attractions.

The Yun family presents Midori as part of Austin since 1999. Its menu brings together nigiri, sashimi, classic and specialty rolls, combinations, bento, teriyaki, tonkatsu, yakisoba, ramen and tempura. The business posts daily lunch options for bento and sushi, plus an afternoon happy-hour selection; with choices ranging from simple pieces to combos and a family platter, groups can adjust the bill to their plans. Pickup is available and reservations are taken by phone.

Public Google comments praise perceived freshness, portion size and service, while the restaurant’s own menu includes cooked alternatives for diners who avoid raw fish. Midori keeps a separate gluten-free menu but states that it uses a shared kitchen: people with allergies or coeliac disease should speak with staff before ordering. Its range works for groups with different preferences; the menu and prices change, so review the official site before setting out.

The restaurant is in Suite 301 at Anderson Arbor, with shopping-centre parking shown in map listings; it does not advertise an exclusive private lot. The official site posts lunch and dinner shifts with a daily closure from 2:30 to 5 p.m., so arriving during that break will not work. Its official Instagram is linked from the website. Midori is the full-service dining-room choice compared with Dawa’s food-truck format: it offers more seating comfort and a structured lunch, though the trip requires driving along the highway corridor.
