24 Best Japanese Restaurants in Miami Beach

“Great omakase by a skilled Japanese Itamae. Everything was fresh and delicious. Choices were well thought out to provide a range of tastes snd textures. Service was diligent and attentive. A rare experience in this part of the world.“

“Was one of the best. Food 110% !!“

“The food prepared by the chefs was second to none. The care, freshness, and authenticity was reflected in every piece of sushi served. That being said, the drink service provided by the restaurant staff was vastly lacking. My wife and I received our drinks during the last course of the meal, after receiving two rounds of drinks that were wrong orders. Fortunately the sushi and chefs made up for the dehydration.“

“So happy Bondi has made its way to Miami... I’ve loved it since NYC and this location absolutely delivers. Everything tastes fresh, the fish is well sliced with just the right amount of rice, and the space feels clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. Cocktails are on balanced and not expensive, so you can easily order two. A total win for Miami!“

“Amazing experience all the staff were super kind, they didn't even let us pour our own water😅 they insisted on them doing it amazing staff and the food was amazing. They also gave us the seats we requested but unfortunately the sun didn't set where we expected but they still put us where we asked with an AMAZING view and away from the crowd. Food was amazing we got the chicken kazarage and the pot both were amazing and the truffle fries were amazing. To drink we got a dragons code and a margarita frozen (don't remember the name) very good experience would recommend to all! Our waiter was also amazing she was great“

“Best Omakase we have had in the US. Chef Erik brings new meaning to the experience — the creativity of his preparation and flavors he brings to every bite is like no other. I don't like Uni and i loved it here for the first time. Talented, great personality and made my husband's birthday really special. We will be back. This is by the way a soace that holds 6 seats and it was just the 2 of us that night. Sake selection is also impressive.“

“Food and service was amazing!“

“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“

“Everything is great about Toni’s, the food is excellent, the service, cleanliness, I’ll go there every chance I get, love it, servers are the best..“

“The presentation was fabulous.Portions where perfect.I know I will come again.“

“From the moment we walk in, the atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between upscale and welcoming. The menu is creative, beautifully presented, and packed with bold flavors—every dish feels thoughtfully crafted and memorable.
What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Jo, our server, was exceptional—attentive without being overbearing, knowledgeable about every dish, and genuinely passionate about making sure we had the best possible experience. Jaylene, the manager, also stood out by checking in with warmth and professionalism, making us feel valued and well taken care of.“

“The food was hit, fresh, and cooked just like I ask. plus they gave us alot. we definitely go back again. And highly recommend this spot. 👌“

“We haven’t eaten this well in a long time. We will definitely come back.
The portions are very large.
Everything looks visually very appealing.
And we had a super nice waitress.
The meat, the chicken, and the salmon tasted incredibly good.
The fried rice, the vegetables, and the salad were very fresh and very, very delicious.
Our very kind waitress, Luciana, made the evening special with her friendliness.
With her great service and kindness, she truly sweetened our evening.“

“This was my second visit to Sando Miami, and while it was a decent experience overall, there are definitely a few areas that could be improved.

This time around, I tried the pork Japanese curry and the chicken katsu. The curry was a solid 4/5, good, but nothing particularly memorable. Personally, I would have liked a bit more spice, but that comes down to preference. What stood out more to me was the portion size. It leaned on the small-to-medium side, and at $23, it felt a bit overpriced for what you get.

The chicken katsu was more reasonably priced, but unfortunately, it missed the mark. The sandwich was dripping oil, which took away from the overall experience and made it feel heavier than it should be.

All in all, Sando Miami is a decent option, but with a few adjustments, especially on portion value and execution, it could be much better.“

“Delicious food that made my taste buds search for hidden gems“

“The service in this place is incredible and ppl here are kind. After long day at work I went to pick up my order and as soon as I stepped out the door the wind blew hard enough to rip the take out bag and the food was on the floor. Mario rushed out and helped me, picked up the food and take it back and made everything from scratch without extra cost. I couldn’t be grateful enough“

“For the wife’s birthday, i brought her and a group of friends here, and it was an awesome dining experience from start to finish. The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere were all top-tier.

Huge shoutout to Liz, our server, who made great recommendations, and Q, the host, for making sure our party of nine was taken care of the entire night. Everything ran smoothly, and we truly felt welcomed.

We had a great time and really appreciate the amazing hospitality. Highly recommend!“
