Chefs Patrick Pham and Daniel Lee have over 25 years of combined experience in Japanese cuisine and sushi. They established their culinary careers in Houston where they worked together for years before creating their own restaurants.

Pham and Lee teamed up to bring new curated dining concepts to Houston’s food scene and kicked off a series of omakase pop-up dinners called Secret Taste. Pham and Lee then opened Kokoro in the Bravery Chef Hall in Downtown Houston followed by Handies Douzo in the Houston Heights.

Aiko is the newest concept from the team featuring a sushi bar and seated dining.

    The five course “mini Omakase” is a perfect small meal. Chef Michael and our sushi chef David were very good, very nice and extremely knowledgeable. We will continue ego back frequently.

    This will be my umpteenth review of AIKO. THE best sushi restaurant in Houston and it shows with a packed house. Sushi bar is THE place to sit! Stephen and Aka are FABULOUS chefs and their creations are MARVELOUS! The entire chef team is amazing. Never leave me. So fortunate they are minutes away from our abode! Cheers! OH and the Lychee martinis are SCRUMPTIOUS! Can never have just one!
