The Japanese restaurant is focused on tempura and temaki (those crispy seaweed rolls filled with raw fish, rice, and veggies that have been having a moment in Dallas as of late). Sushi de Handroll enters a competitive hand roll landscape on the heels of spots like Nori Handroll Bar in Deep Ellum and Namo in the West Village, whose fan bases are already quite well established.

But Sushi de Handroll’s owner Mai Takase, whose background includes American and Japanese cuisines, plans to do something a bit different. For starters, the temaki at Sushi de Handroll are mostly “sushi tacos” served open faced in metal taco holders instead of rolled like at the other spots. - Dallas Eater
