40 Best Japanese Restaurants near Aventura

“Sushi Más is the place I always want to go when I’m in the Aventura area. The food is delicious, super fresh, and the portions are perfect. The service is outstanding, especially thanks to Ximena, who always makes you feel right at home. Thank you, Ximena!“

“Found this place while searching for a Japanese/Thai restaurant in the area, the restaurant looks kind of outdated, the food was good, the best for me was the vegetable fried rice, lots of flavor and crispy veggies, the yakisoba was just ok, not a lot of flavor and the shrimp was overcooked, hard , dry and lacking flavor. Server was friendly but did not come ti the table unless called. Mixed outcome, try it if you want.“

“Food was amazing! I had no issues except when it came to dessert. We got the Almond Delirious. Before we ordered we asked the server to explain what it was. She stated it was an ice cream base with chocolate and almonds on top with a chocolate crust. However when we got the dessert it was not an ice cream base but chocolate mousse. In fact two layers of mousse and no ice cream whatsoever. That was very disappointing as I do not like mousse. So this kind of ruined the dessert portion for our first time there.“

“The best Japanese restaurant around“

“I go to this restaurant at least once every week ever since I discovered it. The quality of food is impeccable, the taste, the flavors.. The best sushi I have ever had, hands down. The stuff is amazing as well. Especially Orion, he's doing a great job!
If you're looking for the best sushi in Miami, this place is perfect for you!!“

“This was a unique kosher dining experience. The vibe and ambiance was amazing. The staff were knowledgeable, attentive and helpful, not hovering but there as soon as you need them. Cocktails were uniquely presented, original and delicious. The food, where do I start. It is obvious that the chef(s) take a lot of pride in their food. From presentation to the complex and delicious flavors. The turkey wrapped dates were out of this world. I have read other reviews and don’t understand the complaints about portion size and price. The portion sizes were perfect not too much where you are full after one dish and not too small leaving you craving more. Kudos to all of the staff. This is not a cheap family restaurant but you are definitely getting value in the food and experience. Excited to come back and taste more of the incredible menu.“

“Been there in several occasions and it's always been a great experience! Food and service deserves a 5 star! Excellent place for group gatherings and friends or family celebrations! 😋 🤩👍“

“WOW! I can not tell you how long I have waited to try this place. We are from out of state (NC) and were suppose to go last May. Thankfully we finally made it here. The dishes were fantastic. The best Asian American food I have had - and I'm Asian. The server was so nice and we even talked about some Asian culture while we dined. We will definitely make this our spot when in Fort Lauderdale!“

“Hands down, the best chicken and beef teriyaki I've ever had. This place is amazing, and the staff is always so friendly and welcoming. They make everything fresh and cook it to order every time. The spicy chicken teriyaki is next-level 🔥—the flavors are incredible. Thanks so much, I'll definitely be back soon!“

“Eclectic little sushi place! Very reasonably priced, interesting items on menu. Japanese library too?lol A woman owned one man show!“

“The first time I went to Ogawa, it was on a fluke at the suggestion of a friend of mine who had been there before. I had no idea what to expect. I walked into a very petite intimate restaurant with only. 11 seats. The experience from start to finish was extraordinary. As a New Yorker, who is also in the hospitality business, I have high standards especially around sushi and Japanese cuisine. The food, wine and sake pairings and attention to detail were outstanding. Each course was better than the next. We met the sushi chef, the culinary chef and the owner. They were so lovely and made our experience so special. I look forward to my next visit.“

“Elegant modern Japanese decor complimented the great food and spectacular service. The temperature was a bit chilly so dress accordingly. I found this to be the best restaurant in the Hard Rock complex. Every dish was fantastic. The Miso Chilean Sea Bass was some of the best I have ever had. The filet was cooked and seasoned perfectly The hamachi and crispy rice and tuna were very tasty. I would pass on the sashimi scallop appetizer next time. Great place to have dinner.“

“We have been here multiple times and LOVE the food. With that said, not sure what happened last night but it was top 5 worst serve we have ever had: waiter didn't come to the table for over 20 minute after we sat down, once we placed the order drink came 45 minutes later, brought the kids meals last (after over an hour), never brought out main courses, waiter never checked on us, the list goes on and on. We finally cancelled our main course and left after being there over 2 hours. Worst part is there was no acknowledgement of the horrible service and serve charge was purposely added so there is no accountability for poor service. Very disappointing to say the least.“

“Yummy Japanese food and kid friendly !!“

“My first time trying today and I am pleased to inform you all that this place is beyond the hype they get on tik tok. The staff super kind, helpful, and efficient. While I waited in my car checking my emails one of the guys came to bring me the food to my car!!!! Needed a late night bite after a movie and wow im so thoroughly pleased i came to write a review!!!!!!! I’m going back for the lamb chops!!!!! (I’m not a big review person so I hope that says something about this place!)“

“It's been a while since I've had top-level sushi. Fitting it was at Chef David's other restaurant, Sushi By Bou. This omakase was a very relaxed 2 hour seating, with remarkable views of the ocean and the north Miami skyline. I found myself thrown back in my chair with the incredible layered flavors of the almost never-ending fresh fish. The cocktails were nuanced, and the atmosphere was filled with pure happiness. I'll definitely find myself coming back here often!“

“I would not just recommend this place I would come out of my way again in a heartbeat. It is so relieving to actually find a place that has great service again. I feel after the pandemic, it's really changed the service force. It was such a fresh breath of air to have such an amazing time and service! I had a party of 11 of us for my birthday, and we were treated with smiles, and taken care of like kings. The food was phenomenal! Some of the most beautiful, fresh seafood I have ever had in my entire life. I've been traveling seven years full-time, and I will definitely be coming back just to eat here! The patio is absolutely gorgeous! It will soon be right on the ocean once they are finishing some construction! Thank you again for such a exhilarating time and a restaurant memory I will never forget and can't wait to see you soon! Best of luck to you all.:-) Brad“

“This place ranks number 1 for me at the moment. I’m a huge fan of Tuna Tataki - I’ve tried two versions that Arigatai offers; Sesame Tuna Delight and Tuna Explosion- both are fantastic.“

“Great atmosphere .. good food“

“I always have a goods experience at this location but my most recent experience was the best. The food was great but it was mostly because of the customer service that I received from Andy. I was having issues with my payment method and she was EXTREMELY patient and helpful. Her a attitude made all the difference that evening.“

“Taiko Sushi deserves every star possible. Their service is excellent, and they handled our event with impressive professionalism. Even when we had miscommunication on our side, they stepped in, fixed the order without hesitation, and still made the party happen. They went beyond what anyone could expect. The food was fresh, the presentation was clean, and their team stayed calm, friendly, and solution focused the entire time. Taiko Sushi is the kind of business you trust for important moments. I highly recommend them. 💯💯💯❤️🙏“
