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.

    First time here and had a great experience. The service was exceptional, Mia took really good care of us. The food was very good and fresh. Don’t leave without trying the Spicy Chicken.

    Always have good experience here. Especially front of house and Steven the sushi chef. Food is amazing. My only continued complaint is small pours of wine. Most places in Houston have generous pours so we’re used to that. But I’ll go back whenever I can!

    Would not recommend for sushi, there are much better options in this city. The best is visiting the bathroom… nice walk through a mirrored garden where you are easily disoriented!

    Great quality fish and variety. Minimalist setting with a great assortment of drinks as well as nigiri, sashimi or hand rolls.
