We ordered the $35 Lunch Special which comes with an appetizer, entree, and dessert. It goes from Thursday to Sunday 12pm until 5pm. The $45 dinner 3-course goes after 5pm, the same days. Very fresh food and the size of the sushi rolls and other foods were served in large portions. Definitely worth every penny. The service was phenomenal our waiter was sweet and very attentive with all our needs and questions. Ambience feels modern and cute! We highly recommend trying this place out!

My meal for miso soup and a roll with water was about $50 so I thought it was kind of steep. The roll was delicious and tasted fresh but the miso soup wasn't as hot as I'd like. The mushrooms were a nice touch though. Plenty of parking as the restaurants is in a little shopping mall - pro tip- go to the menchies for some froyo after

I ordered the hibachi steak with fried rice, specifically asking for the rice extra crispy. I even reminded the waitress because I had a feeling it wouldn't come out that way. Sure enough, when it arrived, the rice wasn't crispy at all... just like the regular side I've had before. They took it back, and there I was waiting longer for my food. Then things took a turn. On one of my last bites of the fried rice, something literally poked my mouth. When I pulled it out, it was a long, thin wooden stick! almost like a toothpick, but not exactly. A wooden stick in my food? That instantly made me uncomfortable. What felt completely intentional due to the previous request, had me fearing for my safety! At that point, I just lost my appetite completely. I didn't even bother saying anything because I honestly didn't feel at ease anymore. I will NOT be returning.

The starter omakase runs about $68. It was around seven courses plus dessert, and honestly, every dish pulled its weight. Bonus points to the server, who gave clear, thoughtful explanations. Menu-wise, don't expect a parade of rolls they're clearly nudging you toward the omakase experience. But if that's the goal, they're doing it right. All in all, a really enjoyable meal and one I'd happily circle back to, next time to explore more of the menu.

This spot is located in an unassuming shopping center where a Nicklaus building is, which is perfect for when you're in the mood to keep a low profile. It's a small, intimate restaurant with counter top seating and a few tables. From the moment we walked in, the folks chopped it up with us and made jokes, which is great because it broke the ice in a way that felt like you were amongst friends. Excellent service all around. We sat at one of the tables as we intended to do a lot of talking and didn't want to be noisy at the counter. We decided to take the recommendation of the staff and did the omakase express option and a sake sampler pairing with three different kinds. No notes here because everything was great, there were several "MMMM!" moments (wish I remembered what each bite was!) and the first sake we got (pictured) was fantastic. Would definitely buy it to have at home. Big shout out to Allie, who covered our table on her first day, was very cool and definitely helped steer the dinner in the right direction. If you're in the Doral area and in the mood for some quality Japanese, definitely stop by here!

The nigiri: unagi was tasty, hotate didn't really taste like anything, salmon was tasty, hamachi and the amaebi was chewy, tuna was tasty. The skyroll wasn't bad and not spicy.

The menu is fusion sushi which integrates traditional Japanese sushi with a South American style (ceviches, tiraditos, etc.). We started with spicy tuna tacos (4/5). A miniature deep fried won ton wrapper shaped like a taco with spicy tuna filling, micro cilantro, sitting on cream cheese. Next was the ahi tuna tiradito (5/5). Ahi slices with a leche de Tigre sauce and micro greens. This was both of our favorites. We then ordered two rolls: a spicy tuna roll (4/5) and the ceviche roll (4/5). The rolls were well made and the flavors a little unique to what we are used to. I enjoyed and appreciated the fusion more than my wife did. The service was professional and efficient. The decor is cool and clean.

I chipped a tooth on several grains before I realized that it was not cooked. They were hard as rock! Furthermore, the nigiri pieces were sooo thin that they started to break apart and could easily see the rice (uncooked) through the piece of "nigiri." Paper thin. Nigiri should NOT be paper thin. Also, I received saba (makeral) instead of hamachi, and hamachi is more expensive. They refused to switch it without charging me and did not take out the difference in cost between saba and hamachi. Lastly, the chu toro wasn't just paperthin - it was shredded to pieces. I tried to remove JUST the fish since the rice wasn't cooked and the fish fell into pieces. I tried some of the fish and it tasted spoiled and mushy. Think disintegrated. I hope I don't get sick. And I paid $30 for this trash!

Our server Claudia was so nice and helpful with explaining the different dishes. You also are treated to a complimentary mocktail and sweet yam bite to start. Claudia even provided us a tablet to see the pictures of the various dishes offered which helped us decide what to try. We started off with a mocktail that had coconut, passion fruit, hibiscus tea and pineapple. That drink was delicious and I didn't miss the alcohol. For starters we had the salmon crispy rice and that was so filling and delicious. Then we had the scallops in the black truffle sauce which was perfect a seared to perfection. We also ordered the kumogani roll which is crab based and that was very tasty with or without soy sauce. We loved everything we tried and will definitely go back to try other items on the menu. I highly recommend trying them out if you're in the area.

Everything we ate and drank at Amazonia was fantastic. I ordered a passion fruit pisco sour to start and my husband had a Mai Tai.

We ordered some crispy rice and bao short ribs as our official appetizer. They were so good!! I hadn't tried the crispy rice before. I loved it. As my main dish I ordered the Maroyana Rice. I personally love ají de gallina, this dish takes aji de gallina to the next level. My husband ordered sushi but I don't recall the name of his order lol they were so good though and fresh. The place was beautifully decorated with Amazonian style plants and really cool lighting features. It was cozy and romantic. The service was top notch.

Came to Soya Sushi & Bar on a Sunday around 2 and it wasn't crowded which was nice, very easy…read moreparking too! We were seated immediately. It's wonderful because their entire digital menu has pictures which I appreciate SO much! We ordered the sampler for 2 (sushi pizza and croquettes), the 101 roll and the volcano roll. So, even though we ordered the sampler for 2, they brought us the sampler for 4 (which is $56). Because they already brought it to our table, we didnt want to waste anything and chose not to correct them. I'm not entirely sure how they got this wrong. However, everything was delicious. I was leery about the Asian crunch, but the walnuts added a nice mild earthy flavor to the tender salmon. The coquitos were very unique. I've never had fish and curry mustard before. The sushi pizza was fresh and crispy and the croquettes were tasty. While I won't complain about the flavors because everything was delicious, I will complain about the price point we didnt intend on spending. The 101 roll was unlike anything we've had before. A wonderful option for someone who doesnt want to go too heavy on carbs. I dont know how a plantain pairs with salmon and tempura shrimp, but it just works. A little salty, a little sweet, and a decent sized roll. The volcano roll is quite the attention grabber! Piled high with krab salad it turns a basic volcano roll into an extraordinary one. The Kani is fried which doesn't usually happen with volcano rolls and avocado is added to the top. Its a great twist on a classic and the textures are wonderful. Unfortunately, no one came to check on us during the duration of this meal, so it's a good thing we didn't need anything else. For an app, two rolls and 2 cans of diet coke, the total came to over $100. The price point is the only thing keeping me from giving this establishment 5 stars. I would give it 4.5 if Yelp allowed me because the quality is great as are the portion sizes. I'll definitely come back to try other options and probably do a better job of speaking up next time if my order is wrong.
