Soto sits on South Lamar Boulevard in Zilker, directly across from Uchi, serving traditional Japanese cooking alongside creative sushi. Executive Sushi Chef Andy leads the kitchen, having worked in Japanese restaurants around the world before bringing that experience to Austin.
The menu changes seasonally and covers nigiri, rolls, and cooked dishes, with an omakase option for diners who want the kitchen to drive. The bar carries an extensive sake and whiskey list.
