    Went here a few weeks ago and we really loved it. 10-12 courses, and every one was truly outstanding.

    Amazingly fresh sushi and great to watch the process from the sushi bar…read more We went back as a family twice

    I regularly go to Bondi Sushi in South Beach and the service there is always outstanding. This…read moreMidtown location was the complete opposite and I will not be returning. We made a reservation and called ahead specifically for omakase. We arrived at 7 pm on a Saturday night, and were told there was no omakase because they did not have enough fish. For a restaurant known for omakase and designed around bar seating for that experience, that is unacceptable. It only got worse. I ordered a beer. It never arrived, and after waiting I was told they were out. I ordered edamame. They were out of that too. Thats 7pm!!!! Thats just the beginning of dinner service on a Saturday!!!!! And the restaurant had maybe 8 people total inside. The server, a girl with long dyed red hair, started off polite but quickly became dismissive. I clearly explained that I am allergic to spicy food and asked for anything spicy on the side. Dishes kept arriving spicy anyway. Because of this, I could barely eat. My nose became completely blocked and I even started speaking differently from the reaction. Food also kept coming out wrong and very slowly. Eventually we left hungry and went next door to eat because it was impossible to get consistent service or correct dishes. At the end, instead of apologizing, the server commented that we seemed to be having fun and were even talking funny. It felt mocking, disrespectful, and unprofessional, especially considering I was reacting to the spicy food I had specifically asked to avoid. Between the lack of basic inventory at the start of the night, the repeated incorrect orders, and the dismissive attitude, this was one of the worst dining experiences I have had. This location does not reflect the standard of the South Beach restaurant. Zero stars if that were an option.

    Incredible dinner experience celebrating my birthday with a few friends! Highly recommend sitting…read moreat the sushi counter. Space is gorgeous and the service was top notch. We got there a bit before our reservation time, and they let us sit in the smaller dining area as we waited for our spots to open up. We all did the $200 tasting and we were all pleasantly surprised by the quality and variety of the bites. It's 8 courses that range from a nigiri sampler, small bites, and dessert. Most memorable were the clam broth, beef loin and carrots, and the fatty tuna nigiri with caviar on top. The fatty tuna nigiri with caviar was the main reason I wanted the tasting! There is an à la carte menu too, but it was a lot easier just letting the chefs portion out our meal. Would definitely check them out and enjoy a superb evening out!

    First of all, they are not mindful of cross contamination! They mix someone else's wine bottle in…read morethe same wine bucket as yours and the tops of the bottles do touch each other. Then they pour the bottle touching the rim of your glass spreading contaminated germs from the other patron's glass! GROSS! They proudly boast that their service is top notch, while it's 7 men standing in the corner and 1 sweet woman dressed like a geisha being obnoxiously monitored. The vibe felt very intense there. The hovering over people in this tiny, little whole in the wall restaurant felt overwhelming. I started to lose my patience being that there is so much staff standing around and found myself several times having to pour my own wine bottle. 2nd, I told them it was my son's birthday and nobody went out of their way to make his birthday special! And just a fair warning, you will spend over a $1000 dollars and walk out of there still very hungry! What a disappointment! Furthermore, they price gouge people trying to pass off as if his restaurant is Michelin worthy! An absolute joke! And here's the "best part" when I tried to voice my concerns, I was told to leave! I was very polite and instead of hearing me out, trying to make my experience better, I get told to leave! How disgusting! Please don't come here. The ambiance is terrible, overwhelming, and you will get sick because they have no consideration for cross contamination!
