“What a great experience! Right in South Miami! Our waitress, Karen, was amazing! Very attentive and extremely helpful with the menu and drinks. She recommended the Omakase Signature to share. It comes with a variety of sushi. Compliments to the chef, it was exactly what we wanted and needed. 100% recommend coming down and seeing Karen and enjoying the delicious food and atmosphere!“

“I wasn’t expecting to have such a great Japanese Kaiseki style starters, sushi in Miami. Dobinmushi soup with Matsutake mushrooms was so delicious and muskmelon sherbet was so refreshing.
Everyone is so attentive and I felt l’m in my favorite restaurant I always go in Japan.“

“It was a great and enjoyable experience. The workers there were very nice and had great manners. Everything was perfect and I would love to go again.“

“especialidad en sushi.super bueno“

“Sushi was ok for this restaurant format, portions were on the smaller side but tasty enough to compensate. The service was friendly and with an ok speed for pickup considerin there were many orders from 3Ps. Atmosphere is fine for a non-commercial area so could be an option to consider when looking for something more low key.“

“Delicious food and incredible service! The perfect restaurant for a date. Highly recommend the Pineapple Rice!“

“awesome rolls!!! very nice place“

“Muy rica la comida y satisfecha con la atención brindada por Yani. Pronto volveremos . Excelente servicio!!!“

“Es un lugar que superó mis expectativas!!! Vale mucho la pena!!! La comida es deliciosa, el servicio es maravilloso y todo el personal es muy amable. Su único defecto es que solo te dan hora y media para estar estar ahí aunque sigas consumiendo, sin embargo, es entendible porque tienen demasiadas reservaciones.“

“💯🍣 excelente comida, servicio y la decoración 🪴🌱🎋🪵“

“I first came to this restaurant in my neighborhood and my first impression was that it was a rather expensive lunch. What an idiot I was because frankly, it is perfectly priced for the supreme quality here.

This place is beyond superb. The food is so fresh and so flavorful that it pops awe in your mouth. Sadly, now I'm addicted to the Wasabi Bowl (with soba noodles and multigrains for the base) and have been ordering it for takeout with too much frequency. I love everything from the friendly and helpful staff to the tranquility of the restaurant, but it's the incredible food that truly shines.

I could not find a single flaw with this place other than, in an abundance of caution, they wrap their sauces in little plastic containers with tight-fitting lids in MORE plastic wrap to prevent leakage during takeout/delivery. I don't know why but it bugs me.

And if that's this restaurant's biggest flaw, you need to experience it for yourself. It is GREAT! ❤️“

“Providing quality service and a comfortable atmosphere“

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

“PHENOMENAL FOOD & fantastic service. We cannot wait to come back!“

“Authentic Japanese sushi and sashimi bar in the center of Miami.

The yellowtail and chu-toro sashimi were the freshest we have tasted so far in South Florida. We went early and we're the only ones so we had all the attention of the waitress and the chef. Our dishes were prepared right in front of us.

Portions seemed small yet we were full by the time we were done with desert. It was yet another perfect lunch.

Omakase is also available but only during the week at 6om and advanced reservation is required.“

“The food was excellent and the service, efficient and friendly! I would definitely return!“

“I've been meaning to try Sushi Corner after reading many reviews about how tasty and affordable this restaurant is, finding all these reviews to be completely true! This hole in the wall gem of West Kendall is well worth your time to try! I came in with my boyfriend last night to their small no frills location and was immediately greeted by our server who was very attentive throughout our whole meal. It's true that they do serve everything using plastic ware which to me doesn't matter at all. I care about the quality of food and the food is definitely top notch! My boyfriend and I decided to order various menu items to share. I started with a hot bowl of Miso Soup $2 which was good; loved the portion which I felt was more than most places. Next we had the Rainbow Roll $10 (California roll topped w/various fish) which was glaringly fresh and came out beautifully. The Sexy Roll $10 (fish tempura, avocado, cilantro, jalapeño, rolled w/soy paper, tempura flakes, eel sauce, spicy mayo) was by far my favorite just because of all the incredible flavors in it. The Florida Roll $9 (spicy conch, cucumber, masago) definitely surprised me with its spice level and amount of conch within it. Lastly, we ordered the Sushi Corner Fried Rice $8 (chicken, shrimp, vegetables, and masago) which ultimately surprised me in portion and tastiness. The fried rice isn't over done with soy sauce so it remains tasting light though its also savory because of a smoky flavor. So tasty! Can't wait to try your other roles and highly recommend to anyone in the area as I think they also deliver!“

“Everything was spectacular. The server was very punctual and ensured no one was missing a drink at any given time. The chef, Bruce, made the night unforgettable and super memorable. The entire table was fully engaged with the chef's antics, jokes, we're non-stop engaging and funny. I would definitely return solely for the exceptional experience Bruce offered.

To add, the manager was great at assisting the entire staff and helped ensure everyone's night was memorable. The teamwork in this restaurant was unmatched.“

“My bestfriend and I’s favorite restaurant. We are regulars. I love the food, service and atmosphere. Uros is the most incredible server, and the chefs are great. I highly recommend this place for date nights, solo dinners or girls' night out.“

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

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

“We had the Black Garlic Ramen and the Spicy Miso Ramen, they were simply Delicious!
The Service was Outstanding! I would give 10 Stars if I could!!!
We Loved this Restaurant!
Highly Recommended!!!
Would Definitely be coming back!“

“Great place for a date night, a eat out night with friends or family. It starts with their great staff, beautifully decorated interior and then you have spectacular food from across Asia. You like spicy they have it, you don't want they have it, udon you got it. Great place have enjoyed it so much we got 2 of our kids a via gift card as an XMAS present this year so they could go. O and BTW the prices are Soo reasonable especially in this economy. Check them out and you'll be a fan too“

“Greatj time , lovely special time with my kids“

“My “go to” local sushi spot for when I’m craving some sush. They’re always quick when ordering take out and the quality is usually very good. Some rolls are better than others, the classics are usually always great. Kampai roll, zombie roll, and the pad Thai are my faves.“

“Everything was delicious and the staff is very welcoming, I loved my experience here and will definitely be back soon. I visited Japan back in April of this year and can honestly say that Umaimon has some of the best authentic Japanese food in Miami! The Japanese shaved ice is a must!!!“

“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!“

“Execellente servicios de todo el personal. En especial de Sandra, atenta desde el primer momento. La comida exquisita ??. 100% recomendado“

“This has not been my first time dining at sushi Maki in Dadeland. I actually go quite often and take my parents with me. Today is my parents 58th wedding anniversary and they both wanted to go to sushi maki to celebrate for lunch. As always we were greeted with friendly hand waves. Leo was our waiter and gave us the incredible service that we are used to. We told him we were there to celebrate my parents anniversary and at the end of our meal he brought out an assortment of dessert treats on the house. I will say it again this is the best sushi maki with the best employees and the best service! Thank you Leo for making it so special.“

“Amazing experience that will inspire you to elevate your food senses and completely takes dining to another level. Truly unique food creations from beginning to end that will satisfy your appetite for world class curated food based on your own menu and created by a terrific chef.“
