Finally tried Miru seafood, after having tried Michiru (sister restaurant) several times before. Unlike the traditional sushi establishment, this is more Asian fusion with an upscale flare. We sat at the bar, had a couple of cocktails, and ordered 2 fish entrees. Great service, great ambiance, great food.
We went for dinner last night, sat at the nice large bar, there were tables available, but we were feeling the bar. Natalie was our bar tender, super cool vibe and made great drinks! The food... we have been here a few times and have always been blown away, but this time was different. We started with the Tuna Chilly Chile; when it came out we were like, now this looks amazing!!! I just wish that the presentation tasted as good as it looked The flavors were not cohesive, they didn't flow. I couldn't taste the mango, was way too tomatoey, and it needed something. Next we had the crab cake, once again when it came out we were eyes wide open because it looked so dang good! Why was it not The best crab cake ever is from Pappas Seafood, so naturally we compare crab cakes to theirs. This crab cake though was bland, like no zing of flavor. We were disappointed Next we tried the Wagyu Gyoza, we had zero idea that it was going to be in a dumpling. Once again we struck out on all three dishes. You know the rule, three strikes and you're out! We did sign up for the rewards program because Miru does have some really good food, these three dishes are not them. Oh, and the gal with the super long hair that did have it pulled back who kept going behind the bar to make drinks because Natalie had a full bar to make drinks for, take orders from, and make your drinks for your one table that was in the restaurant section, be a better co-worker. Your rude comments about a chocolate martini were unnecessary and your hair whipping all over the place was uncouth. Either braid it or put it in a bun.
I'm so glad my sister and brother-in-law brought us here for dinner. Everything was very good. I'd give it 4 1/2 stars if I could, but I'm going to land on four unless I surprise myself while writing this review. While everything was indeed very good, I can't say it was great. It was close. I'd eat here again and I definitely recommend. But on to the food and the service. We had a lot of different dishes so there's lots to say. Our server was young. While that may sound like a dig, it is not. He was super friendly and attentive. We started with some pretty awesome appetizers. The Shiitake Short Rib was falling-off-the-bone (and it is served on the bone) was perhaps the best bite of the night. There are a lot of appetizers to choose from. If you find yourself at Miru, order this. We also tried the Gulf Grouper - Flash Fried, Mango, Tomato, Basil. This was also a delicious bite. I ordered the Spanish Octopus, listed as an appetizer, for my meal. I'm a fan of octopus and order it whenever I see if on a menu. Though an appetizer, the octopus dish was a good size. The description clearly states it's made with peppercorn chile and I should have been prepared for it to have a kick. That said, it caught me off guard. It only took a few bites to adjust to the spice of the dish, after which I thoroughly enjoyed it. Other items ordered included Scottish Salmon with Ginger, Lemon, Lobster Butter, Shrimp, Blue Crab and Sautéed Asparagus... a lovely dinner. When the last couple arrived they ordered the Red Fish dinner, which included Lobster Brown Butter, Crab, Shrimp, Brussel Sprouts and Shallots. They shared the meal and enjoyed it very much. Mark ordered Fish & Chips - Miso Icelandic Cod, Yuzu Tarter and Fries. He definitely enjoyed his meal. I'm not surprised the overall rating for Miru Seafood is 4.5... hmmm. It's well deserved. There are so many options on the menu and everything we tried was quite good. We could go back and get an entirely different meal. I'm confident it would be delicious.
Food is great! The service is amazing. Ethan was our server and he was very tentative and kind. Will definitely be back. I want to try everything on the menu.
Tries MiRu for the first time. The food was amazing, and our server, Marley, help us make our selections and did an excellent job taking care of us. we started with the scallops and the crab cakes for appetizers. for the main cours, I enjoyed the crispy curry Red Snapper Fried Gulf Snapper, Red Coconut Curry, Scallops Shrimp, Shallots, Emperor Mushroom. My husband had a grilled Redfish In a Lobster Citrus Brown Butter, with Blue Crab Shrimp, Asparagus, Shallots, and Basil. Everything was delicious.
My husband and I just had dinner at Miru Seafood, we were celebrating our anniversary. The place is beautiful, very classy. The menu is very interesting, we wanted to try everything. We started with some wagyu gyozas and Black Garlic Snapper Carpaccio. The carpaccio was exceptional, the fish just melts in your mouth, that black garlic omg is to die for! The gyozas are filled with flavor, some of the best I've had so far. This appetizers are everything!! I'm eager to come back just to try some more! This place is a gem! The staff was great also. And service is quick!! We also had the Red Snapper curry, recommended by our very attentive waitress, great recommendation by the way, I love that the fish had the skin on, battered and fried to perfection! The curry sauce was amazing, mildly sweet, with a hint of lemongrass, mild curry flavor, the scallops and mushrooms were delish!! What a wonderful experience at miru. 100% recommend! We'll be back in no time!
Perfection! After reading rave reviews on the BAHFL page, we decided to give Miru Seafood a try for our anniversary dinner. Wow! From the pumpkin espresso martini to the Lobster Cones appetizer, Alaskan Halibut, Curry Red Snapper to the Hummingbird Cake, every bite was delicious. Our friendly, professional server, Dawn, was on point with suggestions and making sure we had a wonderful dining experience. It all made for a memorable anniversary dinner. We will be back!
Definitely our new favorite restaurant!! Not just favorite seafood, favorite of ALL. The menu is based on fresh fish they receive and the flavors they are able to infuse into the foods you've been eating your entire life will blow you away! Great atmosphere and friendly staff - the owner even came to check on us at one point and she was so pleasant.
MiRu Seafood was the perfect spot for a birthday dinner with friends. We made a reservation for 6 people to be on the safe side, but when we walked in, a reservation wasn't needed. There were only a few tables taken, which was surprising given how nice the ambiance is. Collectively as a group we tried a little bit of everything so I'll just hit the highlights for each. Calamari - light batter, very tasty spicy dipping sauce The Big Scallop - lobster butter garlic soy deliciousness Rock shrimp - crispy and covered in sweet and spicy mayo Brussel sprouts - so addicting we ordered 3 orders, must get Shell baked scallops - spicy aioli and mushrooms mixed in Crab cake - good size chunks of crab, lobster butter Fish n chips - BEST thing on the menu we tried. Super light batter Wagyu short rib - ultra tender, melts in your mouth Hawaiian Swordfish - very meaty fish w/ their tasty lobster brown butter sauce Lobster pumpkin soup - interesting twist on the usual lobster bisque, very creamy Redfish - very meaty fish, topped with blue crab Seafood Noodles - rice noodles mixed with clam sauce Scottish Salmon - beautifully plated, shrimp and blue crab, good but the least favorite dish just bc the salmon was slightly overcooked/dry We also tried a few cocktails with the jasmine old fashioned being the favorite. Coming from the owners of Michiru sushi, MiRu serves a lot of high quality seafood. The service was great, and their bar area is beautiful. I'm really hoping they add a happy hour in the future for discounted food/drinks. But overall, this place seriously needs more attention for how great their food is. I'm really hoping League City and the surrounding areas give them the support they deserve. Cheers!
I had no idea that this place was a Japanese-inspired restaurant until our server told us. I came here with some friends for a birthday dinner, and it's located in a stand-alone building. It's in a parking lot with plenty of parking. Inside the restaurant, it almost gives you an upscale vibe with the dim lights and how nice everything looks. Even the back-wall bar looks very elevated too. There is plenty of seating inside. What our table ordered: -calamari -rock shrimp -brussel sprouts -half shell baked scallops -seared scallops -Scottish salmon -rainbow trout -fish & chips The calamari and brussel sprouts were great appetizers. I loved how fresh the calamari was, and the furikake seasoning that it had. That made it really unique. It even came with a house-made sauce (very similar to spicy mayo, mixed with something else), that was really delicious. We originally had ordered only 1 order of the brussel sprouts, and then ended up adding 2 more extra orders of it for the table because of how much we enjoyed it. The seared scallops and half shell baked scallops were DELICIOUS. Highly highly highly recommend if you're a fan of scallops. The seared scallops had the most amazing flavor and texture. The half shell baked scallops was coated in a delicious sauce with mushrooms. I would get these dishes again. The fish and chips were actually one of our tables' favorites. The way the fish was battered was to perfection and the fish was full of flavor. I was hoping the salmon would be a bit jucier but after a few bites, it did feel a little dry to me. At least a little bit more dry than I would've liked. Overall, the flavor was good, but I would've preferred it to be a bit jucier. Our server was fantastic with refilling our waters, checking up on us, and giving us excellent recommendations. She was very knowledgeable about everything on the menu that we asked her about. I was pleased overall here. This is a great seafood spot in the area!

We really enjoyed our visit to Miru seafood for our anniversary dinner. The interior was modern, clean, and dimly lot - perfect for a date night and dinner event. The service was timely and our waitress gave us solid recommendations. For apps we ordered the lobster cone which was refreshing and crab cake which was crispy, savory, and mostly lump crab meat. For entrees I had the stuffed redfish which was pan seared well and topped with grill shrimp. We also ordered the red snapper which was spicy with a chorizo topping and grilled shrimp. For sides we ordered fried rice and glazed brussel sprouts.The dishes were generous and quality of the fish was excellent. I really liked the Asian fusion theme of most of the seafood dishes. Overall a nice elevated seafood dinner option in the League City area. read more

Everything! From the moment you walk in the ambience is nice- a casual elegance- with a touch of sports bar having a TV above the beautiful bar and wine wall. The service - kind- attentive and helpful with suggestions and recommendations- and accommodate sub requests The Food- everything is flavorful- cooked perfectly- not over not under- and presented beautifully! A nice place to go- planned or spur of the moment- to have a relaxed- nice meal among friends. read more

Made it to Miru's first anniversary ( Congrats to Andy, Dave and Staff) Food was little too saucy for me but flavorful. Service was excellent thanks to Maria and the bar staff . Parking was plenty. read more
Best seafood restaurant in League City! They have a great variety of fish with hints of Asian flavors. My favorite dish was the Alaskan halibut! The yuzu/miso flavor made it so buttery without being too decadent. Also get the seafood noodles on the side. They look like bland white noodles but had so much flavor! read more

wow. just wow. my only complaint is not trying this place sooner. i'm beating myself up over it. i drive past this unsuspecting spot every day and finally today decided to try it out with a friend. we were both absolutely blown away. every. single. dish. was. amazing. i tried almost every appetizer, the crab claws, hokkaido scallops, oysters, waygu k pops, barramundi, grouper special (personal favorite although its a tough pick), tuna crispy rice, and tuna crisps. every single dish one after another blew me away. i was so blown away by the apps i filled up and didn't get to try any mains, but believe me. i will be back. the ambiance is family friendly but still very intimate and appropriate for a date. bathrooms are clean. i cannot express enough how pleased i am with this spot. please give it a shot. i am blown away. i am a food SNOB and i typically go into houston for my seafood nights, but when i say this place blows some of the big name spots out of the water. i mean it. thank you MiRu. i will soon be a regular. read more

The culinary experience for our visit was absolutely wonderful. All orders were flavorful with discriminating presentation. The service was attentive and responsive. Our server made menu recommendations that proved to be spot on. The ambiance is sophisticated yet not stuffy or uncomfortable. A very relaxing atmosphere allowing for conversations at normal volumes. I highly recommend MiRu for an exquisite culinary experience. read more

I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu. Out of everything that i've tried (so far), i would 100/100 times get again. It's unsuspecting on the outside of the building, but the dining area is very well done and clean. read more

I dined solo tonight so I decided to eat at the bar. I was immediately greeted by the bartender who asked if I had a drink in mind before placing my meal order. I asked for a glass of cab but asked that it be served with my meal. I went with the Scottish Salmon and it came served on a cool looking platter that was on top of a wooden block. Before the salmon got to me, the bartender made it a point to check on me several times. The salmon itself was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It came with three pieces of shrimp topped with crab meat. The shrimp were a bit overcooked but edible. I decided not to say anything only because the butter sauce it came with was quite good. The restaurant itself is cozy. It had music playing that wasn't loud. Parking was easy so this is a plus. Would I dine here again? Absolutely. read more
3.75 stars we tried MiRu Seafood tonight for my bday dinner. they have a dedicated gluten free menu which is always great! the vibe is dark and intimate and you'd never know it used to be a slim chickens. we had the grouper appetizer which was fried grouper with a mango tomato basil chutney. the dish was pretty bland but the fish was very tender. i had the redfish, which came with crab and brusselsprouts. the dish comes originally with brown butter sauce but that is not gluten free. i found the dish very bland and underwhelming- some seasoning or alternate sauce would have gone a long way in my opinion. but the fish was very high quality my husband had the seafood pot which was a coconut curry (not spicy) with mussels, shrimp and some vegetables. it is gluten free if you order it without the toast. his dish was very flavorful and delicious. we had mango mochi for dessert! service was great, so were cocktails! we would definitely come back but i would be sure to order something with a sauce for more flavor. read more

Had excellent service and the food was excellent. Was a little skeptical at first because of the size but was really nice inside and food was really good. Had the lobster cones and I had the redfish and my daughter had the halibut. Can't wait to come back and try other things on the menu. Only downside is desserts aren't fresh. read more

This is such a hidden gem. Delicious food, great service and intimate ambiance. We got the grilled oysters to start. Appetizers are small I will say that BUT the entre portions are not. They don't serve their entrees with filler (rice, noodles, etc) so what you get is pure protein all fish. So delicious. Husband ordered the halibut and I got the red curry snapper. read more

The food was outstanding but the wait was incredibly long. We gave them some grace because it was new; however we said we'd give them 6-12 months before we try again. We saw the manager jetting through the dining area doing busy work, but I would expect her to be more sociable with patrons as it's trying to survive. Most tables were still waiting for food to come out at the same time we were. With that, she did come by right before our serving and gave a single statement saying food would be out shortly and sorry for the wait. Otherwise, it's super clean, nice aesthetics & screen's fortunately had college football playing to entertain us. read more
