    Happy hour menu
    Elle E.

    Great happy hour! Cocktails are half off during happy hour and they have a special food menu too. The jaja picante cocktail has the perfect mix of cilantro and spice from the Serrano peppers...had to order a second one! The short rib fried rice was the winning dish. Would not recommend the truffle fatty tuna crispy rice appetizer...the butter from frying the rice was overpowering and the tuna was way too ground up and didn't seem fresh. Service barside was exceptional!

    Rock Shrimp was great, big portion too

    New years dinner for $75pp at Katsuya was super delicious. Loved the rock shrimp and Brussel sprouts (both very large portions), as well as the umami wagyu gyoza. The chicken Jidori and bao buns were good but not the most memorable. Ended the meal with a multi layered chocolate yuzu cake with fresh citrus notes and crunchy white chocolate. We were able to book via open table and add on open bar at the Hyde Beach New Year's party for $125pp which was a great deal. $50 valet and attentive service made the whole evening a breeze.

    Absolutely. That's what I'd be saying if you asked if I recommend Katsuya. This was such a beautiful dinner; the food, the atmosphere, the hospitality. These dishes had me acting a little dramatic every time I'd put the first bite in my mouth. Acting like I'd never tasted good food before. But I was in disbelief. I had tried a few dishes from Katsuya in the past, but they were not near as good as the ones I tried this round. They were out of most of the nigiri/sashimi options. I can't remember if we went on a tue or wed, but they said their weekly shipments come in on Thursday. (Don't quote me on that as they may have changed their shipment date) Sorry for the red light district photos lol!!

    Mold on the ceiling...

    Disappointing unfortunately. Came in excited cause I hadn't been to Katsuya in a while and honestly think the chain's quality has gone down (used to go to the LA Live location often but this was the first time at the Miami Beach location). We came in late so we put the full order in when we sat which wasn't a problem and the server was very nice and attentive. The restaurant itself is very nice but it's too bad that the taste is mediocre considering the price point. The dessert was the best tasting dish.

    Overpriced & lacking flavors. Service was decent contrary to the reviews here - but the timing of the dishes were off. Waited until we finished the short rib until we got our rice and mushroom robata items. The katsuya roll was pretty decent, but nothing too special. It comes with a little tooth pick for each of the pieces so things don't fall out. Short ribs were dry and the mushrooms severely lacked seasoning and really any flavor. Would prob come here for drinks only, but hard pass on the food. The atmosphere is quite pleasant though!

    Katsuya had good food and service but, it was an odd (yet enjoyable) experience. First, getting to the restaurant was interesting. Katsuya is located in the SLS hotel but in order to get to the restaurant you not only walk through the lobby, but through the center of another restaurant and then out of the back doors to the pool area where Katsuya is on your left. Once inside the restaurant it was much smaller than I had imagined it would be based off the online pictures. The next odd thing was, over the course of dinner the restaurant kept playing with the lights, they would go down and then go back up again. This happened maybe three or four times. While these were weird occurrences, I do not think that they took too much away from the meal. The rolls were good, especially their specialty rolls. I suggest trying the "Rock Shrimp Tempura" and the "Lobster" rolls. However, the item that you 100% must try is the "Crispy Brussel Sprouts". These "brussels sprouts" are marinated with "Balsamic T sume" and have an amazing taste. If you are typically a person who does not eat sushi there are also alternative options for you such as steak, vegetables and soup. As far as the service went, the employees were kind and regularly checked in on our group throughout the course of the meal. Overall, Katsuya had good food and service. I would recommend eating here only if you are a big fan of sushi as it is a bit expensive.

    Located in the SLS Miami Beach, whose entrance is grand and flashy (high end cars parked up front with a red carpet greeting you in). Inside it's trendy, but if you look close enough a bit dated. Perhaps this is the historical building challenge or maybe they do need to upgrade a bit. You have to walk through the middle of one restaurant to get to this one... it's a bit odd, but I think they tried to use the space the best they can. I heard Katsuya is quite trendy, but for a midweek dinner we were one of two or three seated tables. It was quite empty and didn't really fill out like the other restaurant we walked through. I felt the decor was a bit drab for such a trendy space, yet I could see if it were a full night perhaps you wouldn't even notice due to the cozy effect of all those bodies in a smaller room. Tonight the room seemed larger because not many seats were full. The bathrooms are in a cellar. Not my favorite location, distance or design from our restaurant. Service was top notch. Our server was attentive, quick yet not overly hovering. The food, which I consider my main part, was high quality and well presented and thought out. The rock ship was of a good portion for a Miami spice appetizer and incredibly seasoned, as was the spicy tuna roll and jalapeño yellowtail sashimi. The miso black cod was beautifully presented and placed. The Bronzino looked good, but heard complaints of fine bones. The black cod, which I got, was quality fish, but me and another felt too salty from the kitchen. We ordered some more sushi: the rock shrimp roll and the crab hand roll, both quite good. We upgraded the crab roll to only use real crab... not opt to mix the imitation. The sorbet, donuts and their special miso marshmallow cake were all quite delicious. The staff were all friendly and tried to be as flexible with our requests and attentive to allergens as possible. A+ for them!

I highly recommend the Miso Black Cod -- it was phenomenal and had the same rich, buttery texture as Chilean sea bass. Absolutely delicious. The Wagyu Burger was also outstanding -- freshly ground, high quality, and cooked perfectly. We also tried one of their sushi rolls topped with miso and filled with fresh tuna and salmon, and it was incredibly fresh and beautifully prepared. You can really taste the quality in every bite. Our server (I didn't catch her name -- an Asian woman, possibly in her 40s) was wonderful and made our experience even more enjoyable with her attentive and warm service. We truly loved this place and are already looking forward to coming back, especially to explore more of their sushi menu. Highly recommend!

They need to be a good sushi place to survive in this area but again like most places in the area charge 20% gratuity. This makes employees feel entitled and lose motivation to give good service. These are subsidies for the company to pay employees. The ambiance is actually good for this area. I would give 5 stars if the prices were more reasonable or if they actually had spectacular food. In any other city this would be decent sushi at half the price.

I was informed their fish is all real and fresh, so I even tried the blue crab hand roll, as well as the lobster yuzu, tuna, and yellowtail. The lobster yuzu and crab were both equally a pleasant surprise though Im glad I only ordered one of each. Came around 4pm and was pretty quiet, so great place for a solo date or even a lunch meet.
