Kata is always an amazing experience. The food is incredibly delicious, fresh, and full of flavor—every dish is outstanding. The service is exceptional, especially thanks to Mika, who always takes such great care of us. We truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. We will keep coming back always — the Toro & Akami guys!

Best sushi spot in Miami I’ve experienced so far!!!! Prices are unbeatable and the quality is great. Love coming here whenever we’re in town. We always make it a point to go back to Katana.

One of my favorite restaurants in Miami. Sometimes there is a long wait, but you can put your name on the list and grab a drink next door at Bob’s! 😊
As a long time customer, I just wanted to give the owner my opinion on the changes I've experienced over years at Katana. The service used to be excellent but that has changed. One of your long time employees is the WORST, I've ever encountered at a restaurant. He is rude, bulling and just plain mean. That attitude has affected your other great employees IMO. I use to go every week and wait before 5 pm to get a seat and really enjoy the vibe and made friends with many of your customers and always enjoyed my experience there. Now I've lost my desire to return. And those friends I've met there, that are also long time customers, feel the same. I feel that Katana has lost its 'soul'. Find someone else to seat and wait on your customers and put him in the kitchen, since I know you're loyal to your employees, but be loyal to your customers first. Also, the prices just keep going up to the point where I'll go to another place that takes reservations, is super clean inside, has better prices and employees that respect their customers. I'm changing my rating from all 5 stars to reflect my opinion. And I've been waiting to find a forum where I can tell you this, since I've never seen you at the restaurant. Maybe it's time for you to start going in person. Oh and I've been eating Sushi in Miami since Chika opened Su Shin in the Grove in the early 70's, so I'd pay attention to what I say.

My friend Taras show me the spot
Since that day it became one of my favourite Japanese spots in Miami
Place is always busy they don’t do reservations so most of the time you have to wait
If you look up, you can see a lot of Dust which is also not something super cute at my opinion
But what I can tell if you like to save money and have good quality of fish and see one of the oldest Japanese spots in Miami that’s the place

We got asked to leave because some Karen complained we were “laughing too loud”. Shameful ownership.

The concept is great, and the prices are reasonable. Although the sushi portions are a bit on the smaller side, the rotating sushi is tasty. The place itself is enjoyable, but since it’s small and the demand is high, you end up waiting quite a while. If they can find a way to solve the waiting issue, it could become an even more enjoyable spot.

This is the bestest, freshest most delicious fish in town. The yellow tail is out of this world. Prices are super fair, especially for Miami! It’s worth the wait

The true sushi experience. Nothing fancy nothing boujee, just very good Japanese food. No reservations, you might have to wait 40 mins to 1 hour but worth the wait. Perfect place for a date. Try not to be more than 3 ppl. Definitely will go back.

Top 3 spots in Miami to go for proper Japanese cuisine! Been coming here for at least a decade and this is one of Miamis best kept secrets. They never skimp on quality or proper service and not many places offer you such an intimate and intentional space.
Only “downside” is wait time can be anywhere from 20 minutes to over 2 hours but with Bobs Your Uncle next door, it’s essentially ritualistic to put your name down, go back to bobs and have a couple of drinks while you wait.
As soon as you’re sat you’re met with boats floating by with already prepared dishes for your grabbing. You’re then Offered a cold beer or warm sake and your dining experience is fulfilled!
