    Meat Pad Thai

    The best Thai restaurant in Miami Food, service and the ambience is just a great combination.

    Salmon Poke Bowl
    Katherine D.

    Date night at Daek! We enjoyed a lovely dinner for two at one of our new favorite Thai restaurants-- pork dumplings, salmon poke bowls, and my favorite, green curry. All were super delicious, fresh, and had just the right amount of spice! The staff were very sweet and attentive. Cozy little restaurant with indoor and some outdoor seating. Good deals on wine and beer too!

    What waited me and my friends when we arrived

    From the moment we arrived this place was amazing! Parking in the rear that was paid but who cares we didn't have to search for parking! Everyone here was friendly and pleasant and the food.... AMAZING... it was my birthday and they we so pleasant and brought us 3 ridiculous house sake shots. The ambience of this place was just cool some cool music playing not too loud we could talk but the food oh my God half the time I forgot to take a photo before I tried it. When we come back next year we are bringing a crew with us!

    While visiting Miami from San Francisco, I found myself craving Asian food. After doing extensive research, we decided to go with Daek. Ordered delivery on a Friday night and everything came quickly and tasted up to par too. I honestly did not have high hopes after ordering from a couple of other Asian restaurants. Daek passed the test. I'm a huge fan of thai food and I thought the taste was comparable to some of the restaurants in SF. While I shouldn't compare, as Miami isn't known for their Asian food. This spot was good. Ordered the pad thai, pad see ew, pad kee mao, fried rice, red curry and a tom yum soup + white rice. Everything was pretty spicy as we opted for spicy! I would definitely recommend checking Daek out.

    We were in the neighborhood and craving Thai. Opened Yelp to find places near by. This place had pretty good reviews overall so we gave it a try. Ordered the chicken wings as an appetizer. They came out golden, perfectly fried and somehow absolutely no flavor.....none. I gave them 4 stars though because the Crab Fried Rice was EVERYTHING!!! I guess all the flavor went into that lol....and I wasn't mad at it. The service here was great. Friendly attentive staff. Ambiance was nice and chill. I will be back for that fried rice.

    Wonderful dining experience at Daek! The service was phenomenal upon arrival which was exceptional and the food was stellar and finger licking good! Kicked off the dinner with the garlic edamame which was exceptional flavorful and delicious. The sticky pork ribs were dazzling in a spicy chill sauce and the serving was plentiful! I also ordered the shrimp tempura and salmon roll which I dipped into the edamame garlic sauce which made the sushi roll scrumptious. Thank you for the complimentary dessert which was delicious. I look forward to returning for another date night!! Xoxo

    Made reservations online and was greeted as we walked in my the manager who walked up and knew my name. Considering I got there exactly at 7:30pm he knew it was me. Sat down to a table with my name on it (those details) and was introduced to out lovely server. Sushi was exceptional and the Thai items ordered were full of flavor. Considering there is a lot of "tourist traps" in that area I was really happy to get a great meal and personalized service. Great place for a date night btw and music was great playing. Thank you for the lovely experience!

    The Pad See Eew was PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!!!! And the customer service was impeccable. This place is amazing, UNBELIEVABLE in taste and I will return every time I am in town, OMG! It's been a very long time when I was able to sit down at a restaurant this lovely and enjoy customer service with at least 2 or 3 waitresses catering to our every need. The food had so much flavor and I honestly cannot even remember when was the last time that I tasted food with this much personality and flair. I will return every single time I'm in Wynwood. Highly recommend.

    Has a smaller menu than most Thai restaurants but has your most popular dishes. Started off vegetarian spring rolls which were okay, I've had better. The Thai iced tea was good. I ordered pad Thai with tofu medium spicy which smelled a little fishy, I know they put fish sauce in it but it's a turn off when I get a strong smell of it, luckily it didn't taste fishy. My friend wanted vegetable fried rice without egg but for some reason they couldn't do that so she got red curry which she said was good. Service was good and overall it was good. They do have a private parking lot in the back which is nice.

    Quit disappointed in all the mini vendors. The food seems to be slightly off in flavors, perhaps because of the interest in providing better quality dishes.

    I came here to scratch a sushi itch and received a deep tissue massage…read more I must preface that I am a sushi snob. I have walked out of places that served fishy fish. Then there's the other end of the spectrum -- the kind of restaurant that reminds you why sushi can feel less like dinner and more like art, hospitality, and therapy in one sitting. Uchiko Miami sits firmly in that category. From the moment I walked in, the ambiance struck the perfect balance between modern elegance and traditional Japanese warmth. It feels refined without being cold, stylish without trying too hard, and intimate without feeling small. Every detail seems intentional. The food was exceptional, but what elevated the night was the experience around it. The fish was clean, precise, and beautifully handled. Every bite had that rare quality where you pause for a second because you don't want to rush past it. The flavors were layered, balanced, and surprising in the best way. The service was just as memorable. The staff were welcoming from the start, and my server turned the evening into something personal. I ordered what I came for, but kept being gifted thoughtful additions that made the meal feel curated rather than transactional. It is rare to feel both spoiled and completely at ease, but that is exactly what happened. Uchiko did not just satisfy a sushi craving. It reset the bar. This was one of those meals where you leave already thinking about when you can come back.

Portions are what you expect for sushi and each dish is served with a special sauce and is perfectly paired. You won't see the standard soy sauce bottles on the table here, and the edamame is grilled... so tasty! You will never have an empty plate on your table, teamwork is exceptional here. One server will refill your water and another will take away your dirty plate, it's really noticeable how they all work together. The restaurant is pretty cold so bring a sweatshirt/ sweater or ask for a cozy blanket. They will gladly loan you one. Reservations are highly recommended, and definitely try their happy hour. Everything here is excellent and don't forget about dessert, the house dessert is unbelievable and we have never had anything like it! Absolutely delicious. Enjoy!

    Being new to the area, I love the experience of trying new places each time I go out. I could not…read morefollow that rule with Kuffo though...this restaurant is simply too good to not return again and again. The restaurant is named after the owner's grandma. How can anybody not appreciate a guy that loves his grandma? But there is more to Fernando than just that. He actually sums it up on his website when he writes, "cooking is my passion my real joy comes from making my guests happy." Having been there a few times now, I have grown certain that these are not just words. This sentiment comes from the heart and is evident in not just the amazing food, the attentive service, and the beautiful decor but also in the personal attention he shows every customer. It is not just business to him, it is personal. The food here is spectacular. So far I have tried a bento box which included miso soup, chicken padthai, and sashimi. The combination of flavors, the freshness of the fish, and the presentation were outstanding. I believe the dashi base for the soup must be made from scratch because the soup is so flavorful but, if not, I must find out where he gets it. The fish is nicely portioned and of a high quality. The padthai is not overly sweet like at so many restaurants which allows you to enjoy the perfect balance of savory ingredients including the perfectly cooked noodles. The portion is generous...enough to take some home. I have also had the Mongolian Chicken and the Ginger Glazed Salmon. Each of these were excellent, again sharing that perfect balance of flavors. I would call each of these dishes memorable. The only appetizer I have tried is the gyoza. It was outstanding. I like them fried but not oily, crispy on one side, with moist and not over-seasoned filling. These surpassed my expectations. The word perfect comes to mind. The only reason I have not tried any other appetizers is because the main courses are so generous. For the same reason I have yet to try dessert. I have also not tried any of the side dishes. Strangely, I have ordered sweet plantains twice, but for some reason, they were not served to me either time so I cannot comment on them. The experience was so good that is strange omission did not distract from the experience of the meal. The services is simply outstanding, the food is great and the vibe of the restaurant just creates a wonderful dynamic experience. But again what puts it over the top is the personal intention of the owner who treats us like we are his most valuable customer ever every time we walk in. And we will walk in. Often. kuffo is that good!

The tender, flavorful salmon was cooked to perfection, and the teriyaki sauce was a delectable complement.

Not only was the food outstanding at Kuffo, but the service was also exceptional. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made the dining experience even more enjoyable. The restaurant's cozy and cute ambiance added to the overall charm, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. It's the perfect place for a nice chill dinner or lunch.

Booked same-day on OpenTable, seated immediately on a packed Friday night. The covered terrace is stunning -- Japanese paper lanterns, string lights, tropical foliage. The Dragon Fruit Lemonade mocktails arrived orchid-garnished and vivid fuchsia. My Wahakan Old Fashioned came with a single spherical ice ball in a crystal-cut glass. Food highlights: Baby Corn in parmesan cream with paprika was the dish of the night. Crispy Truffle Fried Rice hearty and satisfying. Miso soup clean. Salmon Furai solid. Sushi enjoyable though the rice lacks the refinement of Miami's top raw bars. Vegetarians: limited options -- one Veggie Roll and uncertain tofu preparation when we asked to add it to the rice. Service warm but plates were cleared twice while we were still eating. On billing: 20% service charge added automatically, then the receipt suggests an extra 2-5% tip on top -- worth knowing upfront. OpenTable users: if you're redeeming a Dining Reward card, the staff hadn't encountered one before -- but the manager handled it graciously and honored the full amount without issue. Family-friendly, fair value, genuinely memorable evening.
