Handies Douzo Brings Fresh Flavors to Spring Branch with New Sushi Spot

Spring Branch just added another jewel to its growing food scene: Handies Douzo, the hand roll hot spot that’s quietly become one of Houston’s most buzzworthy sushi concepts. The restaurant recently debuted its third location — an intimate, 26-seat counter where the focus is squarely on fresh, high-quality fish and inventive flavor combinations.

A Sushi Bar with Houston Roots

Founded by local chefs recognized for their skill and creativity, Handies Douzo has carved out a reputation as a place where sushi lovers can enjoy a premium experience without the pretense. Each location puts the spotlight on hand rolls, sashimi, and crudos that balance traditional techniques with modern flair.

The new Spring Branch outpost continues that tradition, offering an up-close dining experience where guests watch each roll assembled right in front of them.

Think crisp nori and warm rice cradling buttery salmon, sweet scallop, and even splurge-worthy uni for those looking to elevate their night out. The menu changes with the season and what’s freshest, but you can always expect a lineup that’s both approachable and adventurous.

For those who like variety, the sashimi and crudo options showcase the clean flavors of expertly sourced seafood — all prepared with Handies’ signature balance of simplicity and precision.

The neighborhood has quickly become one of Houston’s fastest-growing dining hubs, drawing chefs and food lovers who want something a little different from the city’s core.
