Kyle is on deck for a serious sushi binge. Kyoka Sushi, the all-you-can-eat spot that debuted in Round Rock last year, is gearing up for a second Central Texas location, locking in a roughly 6,000-square-foot space at 19037 I-35, Suite 103. Construction is scheduled to kick off January 19, with crews expected to wrap by mid May, and the new outpost is slated to pair Kyoka’s unlimited-roll setup with a lineup of a la carte hibachi dishes and appetizers.
Construction timeline and size
The new Kyoka in Kyle is on a tight buildout schedule, with work set to begin January 19 and finish by mid May, according to Community Impact. The filing pegs the restaurant at about 6,000 square feet and lists the address as 19037 I-35, Suite 103. Community Impact notes that these details come from a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filing.
Menu and model
In Round Rock, Kyoka built its business around an all-you-can-eat rolls format, then layered on a la carte hibachi entrees, bento boxes and appetizers. The Round Rock location’s website highlights sushi, sashimi, hibachi entrees and a full bar, suggesting the Kyle restaurant will follow a similar playbook, although Kyoka has not released a Kyle-specific menu yet. Sample offerings are listed on the restaurant’s site: Kyoka Sushi Round Rock.
Where it fits on I-35
The 19037 I-35 address sits in a busy retail corridor south of Austin that has been steadily filling up with new tenants. Public permit records show a new multi-tenant shell at that address, part of a cluster of recent filings and buildouts. That concentration has drawn both national chains and local operators, turning the stretch into a frequent landing spot for restaurant expansions like Kyoka’s.
What to watch next
What Now reported that the paperwork is in place and spoke with a Kyoka representative, who said it is still too early to share more specifics. Community Impact similarly notes that its information is based on a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filing and says it plans to update its coverage as additional details become available.
