“Angela went out of her way to makes us feel special. She went above and beyond with her special service. The food was spectacular . I highly recommend this restaurant for family celebrations. Our Graduation party was outstanding thanks to Angela. Thank you“

“Food was delicious. Staff was overly accommodating. Environment was fun and modern. Would love to visit this restaurant again. I might go again tomorrow. Yummm!“

“awesome rolls!!! very nice place“

“Good, healthy food at a decent price“

“We had a very enjoyable time at Omakai in Miami this weekend. The restaurant is beautiful and the food and service is excellent. I recommend it highly.“

“Creative spin on Japanese cuisine. The Peruvian blend of spices adds a tropical feel to their dishes. Makes for a great meal! Madelyn was our waitress and she was quite pleasant to have around. Mocktails were very good. Try the Crispy Rice, the Steak, fried rice and Thai donuts! Miyako did not miss a beat! Oh yes, though it is a mom and pop shop atmosphere, try to get seated in the floor seats. You can take your shoes off and let your toes hang out if you you're in to that sort of thing. :)“

“We randomly decided to try this place out and we are so glad we did! The "fusion" aspect of this restaurant is that they offer a mix of different Asian dishes (along with a small summary of their origins) and our dishes did not disappoint. What makes this place truly special though is the chill atmosphere and phenomenal service (thank you so much to our waitress, Bing!). I recommend trying the Mango Tango sake cocktail and the Pad Woon Sen, which was light and very flavorful. This is definitely a new spot and I'm sure you'll agree!“

“La comida excelente la atención súper buena El ambiente muy familiar“

“First time visiting this restaurant in Doral. Peruvian cuisine, and love the scenery outside. Nice patio area, with fresh air and totally different view. Overall the food was good not great, a little too salty on the lomo saltado, and the jalea mix, the monster burger was good, but missing lettuce and tomato, something burgers must always have, the spinach dip was really good, tasty and yummy, and the Japanese beer was a great selection. Our server, could have done a better job, at times she was nowhere to be found, and missed out on the little things that could have put my overall view different from this place. A solid four stars, honestly I do not know if I would come back to try their Sushi dishes!“

“Five Stars..⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐We had 13 guests. Everything we ordered, from the cangrejo tostones to the entrees,to the cocktails were delicious!! Valentina, our waitress was wonderful. Alina, the owner is amazing! Everything was perfect!!“

“did not try any sushi but the ceviche dishes were acceptable. Did not expect that dishes that advertised "crab meat" on the menu were served with immitation crab meat (surimi) the price points call for real crab.“

“Came for the food… Stayed for Jenny…. Then came back for Jenny….and food. But mostly Jenny. She’s the best person ever. We have our Sunday family time with her in Coral Gables. But, she’s sometimes at Brickell. Cheers!“

“Excellent. Fully recommended. Everything we ordered was fantastic, different, tasty. You must try!“

“With Belly Fish, I feel like you can’t go wrong whether you’re ordering a weeknight meal or a big catering platter. We’ve eaten some of the best omakases whether in Miami or Japan, yet I will always come back to this place. They’re now my go-to for delicious, fresh sushi with no nonsense! I love the scallop (seasonal), torched fish, foie gras add-on, salmon lovers rolls…. The list goes on. Pro tip, it can be hard to find their location (looks like a residential / apartment area) when picking up so give yourself extra time. Five stars across the board for belly fish- thank you!“

“This izakaya is perfect. Amazing curry, gyoza, karaage, tamagoyaki, umeshu, everything. Best Japanese food I've had in the states, and best gyoza I've had in my LIFE. Tons of specials written on the wall, all good prices. Ignore bad reviews about the service: if you need something, don't wait for your server - just call them over. ごちそうさまでした!“

“Loved the place, excellent service, food was delish“

“Delicious food, many options, well worth it.“

“Todo como su comida y su personal de es excelente. Gracias“

“Absolutely fantastic experience at Kampai! My friends and I stumbled upon this gem and were blown away by the delicious food and unbeatable prices. The cozy ambiance added to the charm of the place. The tuna and crispy rice were divine, and the eel rolls and gyozas were simply irresistible. But the real showstopper? The mango martinis - hands down the best I've ever had! The portions were generous, leaving us happily stuffed. Special shoutout to the attentive waitress who made our evening even more enjoyable. Kampai, you've won our hearts - we'll definitely be back for more!“

“Very nice spot for creative rolls almost at the development boundary of west Kendall! Was curious about their use of goat cheese in a number of their rolls. I had the Laci roll, Once my taste buds sorted out their confusion, I gave it a resounding thumbs up! The fried wakame garnish was a nice touch! The fusion in its name refers to a number of Peruvian influence and options, not just tiraditos but also lomo saltado!“

“Comida excelente y muy buenas porciones“

“I had the Omakase experience and it was just amazing!!!!“

“Authentic Peruvian fusion cuisine with amazing atmosphere and outstanding service. A true gem In Pinecrest. The ceviche is the best in town with real fresh fish. My favorite is the Apaltado 1111 Ceviche with the amazing leche de Tigre and avocados !! The sticky shrimps are a must. 1111 has a fabulous Pisco sour selection and imported drinks. Don’t leave without finishing with a sweet bite of the dreamy suspiro limeño it will literally take your breath away. The Friday life music was fantastic too. May I also add that the home delivery service is fantastic, the food will arrive quickly, in perfect presentation and fresh, same quality as in the restaurant. I just plated it and had a gorgeous and delicious dinner party at home.“

“Everything is very fresh and the presentation is amazing. I had the Dynamite Shrimp Tempura Roll and the Rainbow Roll with their Ginger dressing salad.“

“My expectations were truly exceeded. This is not your typical sushi joint. The chef there definitely is building their dishes with love and care. They seem to use real crab meat wherever you would normally have “sea leg” and every single item in our order was delicious, super fresh, prepared uniquely, and reasonably priced. And it’s delivered! Super bonus. Do it, you won’t regret it. Awesome place. Welcome to the neighborhood.“

“The best sushi I have ever eaten, the presentation of the dishes is spectacular. The attention of the boys is great. For a food truck they make you feel like you're in a restaurant. They deserve not 5, but 10 stars. Super recommended. They serve the best Nestea in Miami.“

“especialidad en sushi.super bueno“

“Discover this phenomenal sushi restaurant located in Coral Way in Coral Gables, the decoration is so vibrant displaying a unique decor in every corner. The wall art and the figurines in the wall are fantastic too. The chairs are all different and the ambiance is very welcoming as well as the lighting, the venue has a lot of space and also offers outdoors seating. I loved the menu because it features photos, description and an interactive menu presented in a tablet with many choices including Latin/fusion dishes, signature rolls, sushi for big groups hot/cold teas, desserts and much more... I ordered the Marlenita and Santori signature rolls and they didn't disappoint. The pieces had a generous amounts of salmon, avocado and it was were perfectly prepared and crafted. I really loved each piece and the presentation was on point. I appreciate Esteban exceptional customer service. He was hospitable, attentive, and very professional. I will definitely return to try the signature bowls and eat more edamame!! Ps. The ice cream was soft, the Nutella made every bite delightful“

“Very good food and friendly waitress“

“We had a wonderful lunch for mother's day weekend. We went early so no wait. The chef was entertaining and everyone else also. The manager came around asking how everything was. The hibachi was excellent and so were the drinks. They gave each a rose for mother's day which was nice. I usually go there for special occasions like my birthday for hibachi and for regular seating other times and I'm never disappointed.“

“Always wonderful! Great sushi!“

“love itgreat place service great“

“Amazing Service, Food, & Atmosphere!“

“Fresh sushi, fast service & always clean. Owner/ sushi chef is cool.“

“I’ve been meaning to write this review for months. I’ve been coming to Kamiko for years and it’s always been A+. This year I decided to celebrate my birthday and it was everything I’d hope it would be. Even though the place is small and there usually aren’t that many big groups, they were able to accommodate my big party and treated us like royalty. Plus the food was delicious as always.“

“Amazing experience ! The best sushi and deserts ❤️“

“Me encanto la comida todo muy rico y muy buen servicio“

“Let me just say , Hats off to Teddy, Ricky & Jefferson the friendly vibes they create while serving Fresh delicious portions at the Coco Palm Woman's club was amazing. Waves of happy guests coming back for seconds & thirds!! But they always had a fresh warm batch ready to go! When people enjoy their profession, in this case you can taste it! Happy people definitely make your food taste better!Vegetarian options: Cooked to perfection. You will even drink the left over juice from all the veggies!!“

“good food and good service.sushi was pretty good!! specifically recommend the rene roll, spicy salmon, and the crunch roll. the gyoza was also good, and the sauce was even better. the staff were also super charismatic, and very helpful, despite it being a slammed night.“

“The best sushi in town... hands down!!“

“We have dinner many times here, always giving them the benefit of the doubt. The service is terrible. They sat us down with menu's waited 20 min and no one came by to even offer us water. Meanwhile 2 more customers wall in and they were immediately welcomed 3 if the employees created them chatted with them. They were served water and there order was taken. As this is all happening we are still sitting waiting. 10 more pass by and still no one has come to us. We proceed to walk out and eat at the Mexican restaurant next door. This has happens several times we have gone but like the food that we always let it pass and cone back. But this time was the final pass. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL, VERY RUDE AND TERRIBLE SERVICE“

“I love sushi. Hubby not so much. This place has stuff to make us both happy.“

“The food is excellent! Great service, I recommend.“

“If you are in the area this is a must. Been eating at Sakura for almost 20 years. Always happy to see Oan and his crew. The nicest people delivering the most delicious Japanese food. Everything is fantastic. Get the Moose Roll!Parking: Plenty of Sakura spaces at parking lot available, always.Kid-friendliness: My kids grew up eating Sakura and it’s still their number one choice, always. Sometimes Oan crafts this really fun orange peel contraptions for the kids. Like home. Sakura is super kid friendly.“
