    Spicy tuna and Akami & Unagi makimono
    Ted K.

    Very trendy. Similar vibe to Seito Sushi in Dr Phillip's. Had the tuna tasting which was very good , Australian wagyu cooked on a hot stone tableside which was fun and delicious. The spicy tuna roll was amazing and the Akami & Unagi roll was very good. Good cocktails. Pleasant experience.

    Everything was really good and fresh. Different and unique texture and flavor profiles. Service on point. Unfortunately when we went, the AC was broken though it was freezing inside. Otherwise ambience food and love you always.

    Just wow to Kabooki!!!!! Been here twice now and just getting to reviewing this spot. Let me first start with the staff! Great service from start to finish. Our server Michelle was very nice and offered good input to our questions about the dishes. We also had the honor to talk with Chef Henry Moso- we had a great conversation about the sushi and he even presented us with a dish. Grateful and delighted! kabooki's quality and execution of the dishes are a work of art! Both times we sat at sushi table and watched all the sushi chefs doing their magic was a great show. We started with the hamachi carpaccio and the beef carpaccio and both were chefs kiss We had the bluefin tasting which was great progression of variety of bluefin. Mauro Truffle, Kona Kampachi, leche de Tigro were tasty unique options. The use of micro greens and flowers was really pretty besides being tasty!! Definitely worth checking out!!

    The ribs

    I revisited again after a few years. The menu has changed quite a bit throughout the years, but it is still very pricey. This time I went with my husband and we ordered a few small plates and an espresso martini. The espresso martini was pretty standard, but we've definitely had better. The shishito peppers were okay, but I feel like I've gotten more in the past with an order. The karaage was highly disappointing, the sauce was overwhelming and made the fried chicken coating slightly soggy. I think a dry seasoning would've paired better. The beef cheek had nice presentation, but didn't really impress with the flavor; there's better places for yakitori. The otoro we got was decent. The ribs were my favorite of the night with good sauce and they fell off the bone. And then my real favorite of the night was the ube cheesecake, so delicious and flavorful! The service was great and the server was helpful in bringing us a happy hour menu after we asked. Interior was dark and had good vibes for a date night.

    Came here on a Friday night and it was busy! The location is unassuming, right off of 50. There's not a lot of parking so you may need to plan for that. You can park behind the building but it was unclear to me if it was a tow a way zone or not. For Kabooki Sushi, the ambiance was low light and romantic (I needed the little lamp light). The service was on point (water glasses filled and plates cleared immediately). The food was delicious (gone too fast!). The two rolls I tried were delicious. The LC had beef on top and was savory. The Hawaii XO was refreshing. The apps were good portions for the price point. They also had some chef specials that were not so budget friendly lol. Overall, this is a nice spot to have a dinner with a less casual vibe.

    Date night done right! This sushi spot is tucked into a shopping strip (next to Foxtail, which felt a *little* random at first), but the moment we walked in, it was a total vibe shift. Elegant, cozy, and instantly inviting. Hubby and I shared two different sushi rolls (fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented), shrimp, plus some crispy chicken bites and brussel sprouts that seriously deserve their own spotlight. The service? Top-tier. Attentive without hovering, super welcoming, and made the whole experience feel special. And let's not forget complimentary valet = immediate bonus points.

    Went here with friends to celebrate our engagement and the staff were incredible. We sat down with a chilled bottle of champagne already at the table and our server immediately poured us all glasses to cheers with. This is one of my all time favorite restaurants so it's always a fantastic experience. I've had almost everything on the menu but some dishes I gravitate towards are the tuna truffle cold tasting dish, miso soup, scallop nigiri, tuna nigiri, all the rolls are fabulous, the udon noodles, mushroom dumplings, and nigiri flight of 10 picked from the chef. I'm usually getting an assortment of those every time I come. The fish here is such a high grade of fish compared to other spots in town. Everything tastes so fresh and of great quality. I could eat plain sashimi here with nothing on it and be overjoyed.

    Taste: 5/5 Value: 3/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Beautiful, upscale sushi spot with really delicious food. This seems like the perfect place for a special occasion or a memorable date night. The prices are definitely on the higher side for the portion sizes, but the quality and flavor made it feel like a worthwhile splurge. Service was friendly and attentive, and overall, we had an awesome time.

    Hawaii X.O
    Caitlin R.

    Incredible food! This is some of the best sushi I've had in a very long time. Get the Hawaii x.o ( I could eat this every day) We also enjoyed the maguro truffle Portions are smaller, and you pay a premium, but you are getting quality food. The ambiance was great, we sat at the bar. Cocktails looked amazing-will try next time!

    Maguro Truffle
    Hannah R.

    Food was amazing, not pictured but we started with the truffle parmesan edamame and it was VERY good. The wagu that you cook on the hot rock was buttery soft and the bookibooki roll was my favorite. Bookibooki is warm and good quality. 5 of us got the kiwi elderflower and tequila drink that was on special that night and it was great. Everyone was happy with their food, however it's worth noting the wait and service took quite a while. We waited at least 30 minutes before getting our first drink, and didn't order our dinner for about an hour after arriving. Worth it and will be back again and again!

    We visited Kabooki as part of Magical dining, but I'd encourage anyone hoping to try this place out to NOT wait and visit as soon as you can! The food there was very nicely presented, and each of the sushi rolls, appetizers, entrees, and desserts carried very unique flavors. I've had some great sushi in the past, and I would put Kabooki's offerings in that list, if not just above my list of greats. The service was attentive. The servers weren't in your way or constantly in your face, but you knew they were nearby if you needed help. The ambience: dimly lit, not too loud at all, and it felt like a very posh dining establishment. Great date night place. They do have a complimentary valet, however our valet was expecting a tip. Parking is very difficult without using the valet, so that's the only part I didn't like about the entire experience. Overall though, this was one of my favorite dinings experiences in Orlando and will definitely go back!

    The food is where this place really shines. The sushi tasted incredibly fresh, with clean flavors and thoughtful combinations. The brussel sprouts with peach balsamic glaze is a must. The shishito pepper were also good (although could've been blistered more). The LV roll with wagyu was a standout and felt indulgent in the best way. It is not something you see everywhere and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The Hawaii XO roll with beet brought a savory depth, while maintaining a bright refreshing finish. You can tell care goes into the ingredients and presentation. The drinks were also excellent. We had a cherry old fashioned and the "Don't Make Me Blush" (guava and yuzu cocktail) and both were beautifully balanced and well crafted. They complemented the meal perfectly and added to the overall experience. I went on a weekend night and it was lively but not overwhelming. Overall, it is a great choice when you want high quality sushi in a more upscale setting and are looking to make a night of it rather than just grab a quick bite.

    Hokkaido and Tom Yum Maki Rolls
    Juliette L.

    We hadn't been to Kabooki in years!! So glad we decided to do a date night here again, we were way overdue. The resturant got a facelift since then. It looked very modern and sleek. Our server was wonderful and the best part was obviously, the food! We started with drinks and I loved my Lychee Princess. Then we got an order of the garlic teriyaki edamame for the table, which was tasty. I love a little flair to my edamame. Next, I did the tuna nigiri sampler. This came with a lean, mixed and full fatty piece of tuna. Each bite was better than the last. I also ordered a separate piece of yellowtail (one of my favorites). The nigiri here is solid. But my favorite thing here were the maki rolls. I tried the hokkaido roll, which was crab, avocado, topped with raw scallops and black garlic. I also tried the tom yum roll, shrimp tempura, avocado, topped with torched salmon and a tom yum aioli. And we finished with the ube cheesecake, which was incredible! It is safe to say we will not let a couple of years go by before our next visit!

I added the toppings on the side but still found it underwhelming overall. The Spicy Miso had much better flavor. They best thing was their mocktail, it was refreshing for a hot day! Service was mediocre, it was Saturday lunchtime so it took a little to get acknowledged/order and there was some waiting for the boxes/check too. Ambiance is superb/clean and the decor is modern. it's not the biggest restaurant but utilized the space with bench seating against the wall. I feel there are better options in the Mills50 area, but it's worth trying if you haven't since its a Michelin bib restaurant.

It's near the parks but out of the way and hidden enough that unless you somehow discovered this gem, you'd have no idea it was there.

We went during a Saturday lunch 12pm and it was mostly full but quiet and relaxing. Everyone was super kind and accommodating, and they even filled up my husband's water bottle for him with filtered water as she knew we were going back to the parks.

The booth we sat in had a beautiful and asymmetrical heavy wooden table top polished to a brilliant shine, and there were a surprising number of diners there at noonish, on a Tuesday... what's that tell you? Now: the food! *First, for the technically challenged, be warned that the menu is available via phone and QR Code. If you want a printed menu, too bad. Otherwise... We began our meal with Agedashi Tofu, which is fried cubes of tofu that have a magnificently thin layer of a crisp skin encasing melted tofu, and there's a perfect sauce to dip them in. I have been thinking about these for an hour now and can't even imagine how they are made. A delicious magic trick! Next, we had an Eel and Shrimp Tempura Roll, a Shrimp Tempura Bento Box, and two Nigiri and Sashimi lunch specials. The Tempura was light and crisp. The bento box included a spring roll, fried rice, and gyoza, all perfectly flavored. The Nigiri and Sashimi fish was served cold and absolutely fresh, and was sliced generously. The Nigiri and Sushi lunches included a California roll, 4 pieces of sushi, and six pieces of sashimi, and really was a lot of excellent food for a bargain $24. I almost forgot that we started, along with the Agedashi Tofu, with a very subtly flavored miso soup with tofu and seaweed. This was also perfection, with just a breath of ginger and perfect salt. I hope I've convinced you fans of Japanese food to try this restaurant. If you're new to Japanese food's many varieties and intricacies, or hesitant to eat raw foods, there are always cooked meat and fish dishes like Tempura or Teriyaki you can order, and then you can explore by tasting the more exotic things your friends and family order. Maybe you'll develop a taste for it! If you already have a taste for Japanese food, don't pass up an opportunity to eat a wonderful meal at Mikado, in MetroWest.

I believe it was topped with a crispy quinoa, which was a really nice touch. I can't really do cheese so I didn't try the cheezus, but my friends loved it and said it was delicious. Our server gave me a rundown of his favorite chicken ramens and I ended up choosing the yuzu shoyu ramen. It was nice and full of citrus. I love the eggs that come with the ramen, and he very kindly brought out another egg for me as well as a brûlée egg. I've never tried a Brulé egg in my life and it was so interesting and delicious!

    The food was okay overall, but the quality and service were very disappointing…read more Some of the beef was extremely tough, with too much connective tissue and tendon. The beef ribs were mostly fat and still very tough to chew. The chicken was woody breast, making it dry and very difficult to eat. The rice was even worse. They replaced it three times. The first two batches were hard, and the third batch was actually undercooked. The service was by far the biggest disappointment. Even though ordering is done on an iPad, they still kept forgetting items. We had to remind the staff multiple times before the food finally arrived. Every dish took 10-15 minutes or longer to arrive, yet customers are expected to finish their meal within a 90-minute time limit. This is a Japanese BBQ restaurant where the staff is simply bringing out raw meat for customers to grill at the table. There is really no reason it should take 10-15 minutes to deliver each order. To make it even more frustrating, the restaurant wasn't even busy. During our entire meal, there were only two or three other tables occupied, so it's hard to understand why the service was so slow and disorganized. To make matters worse, an 18% service charge was automatically added to the bill. I don't mind paying a service charge for good service, but charging that much when the service is this slow and disappointing feels completely unjustified. Our bill was over $210 for three people, and that didn't even include any drinks. At that price, there are many better Japanese BBQ options available. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back, and I can't recommend this place.
