Ikigai is an absolute gem for sushi lovers. From the moment you step inside, the ambiance strikes a perfect balance between modern elegance and cozy comfort. Amazing food, amazing staff, amazing service, amazing music. My favorite spot in Miami. The best.

We got the $81 omakase set and the experience was bad. The sushi came out all together at once instead of being served one by one. The rice was too mushy and vinegary. At good omakase places each piece is perfectly seasoned, but here the seasoning was off and some pieces were bland.
The waiter offered a free dessert, and the owner gave us a 20% discount at the end, which was nice of them. But regardless, we still paid $170 for two people for a quite disappointing omakase experience, so would not recommend coming here.

I used to like this place, but then they stopped participating in the American Airlines – program. Also, their nori is super chewy and inedible.

Amazing sushi and super fresh fish. Everything is clean, simple, and done right. One of the best spots in Miami if you love good Japanese food. Consistently great. Quality fish, solid nigiri, and friendly service. Highly recommend.
Food was horrendous (too fishy, i.e., not fresh). Service was horrendous (complete lack of interest by staff in whether we were enjoying our experience). Atmosphere was, you guessed it, horrendous (too bright and bland, felt like I was in a hospital). Dining at this restaurant was in no way a high-end experience.

Ikigai exceeded every expectation from start to finish. The flavors, presentation, and service were truly outstanding. We started with the White Fish Tiraditos, which were incredibly fresh and perfectly balanced with citrus. The complimentary Salmon Ambush Búshe was another standout, silky, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.
The Mixed Yakimeshi was absolute comfort in a bowl, packed with mixed vegetables, shrimp, and tender rib eye. And the Mako Kuranchi roll, eel, avocado, masago, and tempura flakes was a perfect fusion of texture and flavor.
A special shoutout to Jose, the bartender and mixologist, whose creativity and attention to detail elevated the entire experience. His cocktails were not only delicious but thoughtfully crafted to complement the dishes.
Ikigai is a must visit exceptional food, exceptional drinks, and exceptional service. Highly recommend!

One of the best happy hours in Miami. The bartender Jose is so sweet and attentive, with all the best recommendations. We ate the seaweed salad, white fish tiradito (2 orders), toro hand roll, and spicy salmon hand roll. Everything was absolutely incredible. Will be coming more often.
Love this place! The fish is super fresh, the rolls are delicious, and the service is great.
