They tried to scam us. Twice lol. Ordered a blue crab roll. They brought out a roll and said it was the crab roll. I thought it looked funny, when I pulled out the meat of the sushi, it was cooked shrimp. Told the owner, she acted like they ordered the wrong roll and reordered the crab roll. (There is no shrimp roll on the menu except for tempura shrimp. Which is deep fried shrimp. They purposely put cooked shrimp to try to look like crab meat) When the new "crab" roll came out later.. it still looked weird. I pulled out the meat and it was imitation crab meat. I told our waitress the menu said blue crab, but we got imitation crab. She said correct it's imitation crab. LOL So I asked her to take it off the bill we don't want it. The owner comes by and goes "oh you must've wanted the blue crab roll right?" As if there was an imitation crab roll and I ordered the wrong one... when I pointed to blue crab and asked for blue crab. There's no other crab roll on the menu read more

Awesome sushi! I had the negi hama roll. The sushi rice was awesome! The flavors all came out balanced. The fish was soft. The spice not overwhelming along with the ponzu. The wasbi wasn't heavy on the horseradish taste but more sweet. I got hot green tea and it came out drinking temperature which was nice since I could immediately drink it. The pickled cucumbers and cabbage were sweet and super crunchy! I liked the water provided. I will definitely come back! Also cute areas to take pictures. read more

I went here on the recommendation of a friend while I was in the area and I loved it! I went during the afternoon and my party was seated quickly by the friendly hostess. Both restaurant and bathroom were very clean. I regret not taking more pictures but honestly I was hungry and the food looked too good when it arrived. My table decided on these specialty sushi rolls: Crunch, Popcorn Lobster, Pink Lady, Lady in Red, Miyako. I didn't even use soy sauce, everything was flavorful and delicious! I especially recommend the Lady in Red roll. All in all, it was a satisfying meal and I want to go back for their izakaya menu! read more

Absolutely never coming back. I'm a local as in 2 blocks away. I come to this place twice a week. My bill is never bellow $100. I always come on Wednesdays and Fridays. I come here because I love the sushi rolls and Japanese miso Ramen we have the same waitress. She always nice and friendly. Today we were kicked out, discriminated against. Susie states a costume last time complained about my toddler making too much noise. So this restaurant is not family friendly. Susie said "yes hi-chair but shhhh" my son has a disability. It is unreasonable for a child to be absolutely quiet. I guess we are never coming back. We asked to have the owner info but were refused and asked to leave. I have felt some kind of discrimination at other times. For example The sushi chefs gave complementary Albacore to other people of his own race but not my family. It didn't bother me then because we were done with our meal but if you are giving a complementary Food to one person, you have to at least offer to the other table who probably is spending the same amount of money. I will absolutely take further action. read more

Everything looked beautiful and tasted even better * Miyako Roll: Creamy avocado, fresh fish, and perfect sauces--so flavorful and satisfying. * Negi Hama Roll: Light, fresh, and topped with a tasty sauce. * Shishito Peppers: Smoky, salty, and addictive. Great side dish! * Sweet Shrimp Nigiri: Super fresh with a touch of ikura on top. The fried heads were a crunchy bonus. * Scallop Nigiri: Sweet, tender, and balanced with a hint of yuzu kosho. Great vibes, amazing food. Can't wait to go back! read more

a bit on the pricier side of the two-dollar-sign end, but $$ is still the appropriate rating. i think they offer buy two get half off on their special rolls. super yummy, super filling, even for two people. on a weekday evening, there was only one other party at the restaurant. street parking if you're lucky; the restaurant is located on a busy main street. read more

Came in for lunch on Saturday, the staff was really friendly and seated my husband and I very quickly! The restaurant was very clean and the servers were attentive. The food was superb and the portion sizes were so generous. We got two rolls, the Negi Hama and the Miyako roll, to share and a bowl of their miso ramen. My favorite of the two rolls was the Negi Hama; the yuzu was the cherry on top of the fresh yellow tail! The Miyako roll was delicious too, with a great ratio of fish to rice in the roll. The ramen portion was massive, my husband and I were able to split it between ourselves and leave full and satisfied. Overall, we had an amazing experience here, if you are in the area and craving good sushi, you should definitely stop by. read more

The food here is beyond memorable. Each bite regardless of sushi or ramen, were a mouthful packed full of flavor. The sushi was so fresh, my wife and I wanted multiple orders of the rainbow rolls. The only thing stopping us were the fact that we ordered different rolls and ramen and in the end sadly stomach capacity won. There are plenty of options in the area for ramen and sushi, you would absolutely be missing out by passing this restaurant over. Such a delicious meal, such top notch service. Dinner just ended, and we are already looking forward to our next visit. read more

Such a Great Spot for Japanese Food! The vibe was super cozy, and the staff were incredibly friendly. Everything I tried was delicious, but the katsu was the real standout--perfectly crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and the sauce was just right. The sashimi and sushi were also super fresh, and you can really tell they care about quality here. The prices were totally fair for how good everything was, and the atmosphere made it easy to just relax and enjoy the meal. read more

Had a delicious meal here with my fiancé. We had two signature cuts rolls and the spicy edamame. The signatures rolls were buy one get one 50% off - which was already factored into the price. The Miyako roll was the best off the two, with really tasty sauce on top. The 911 roll was good, but not as good, until we dipped it in the Miyako roll sauce. Service was quick and attentive. We sat out front at the mini lunch tables, which was nice. Got a taro boba as well. The two rolls, edamame, and boba were $60 read more

I've been coming to Miyako for years. Absolutely love this place. Their renovations look amazing, the vibe is so cute and cozy. Their service is also unparalleled, the servers have always been so friendly and attentive! But the QUALITY of their sushi is what stood out most to me today. Apparently they've upgraded the quality of their fish recently and it has absolutely taken the sushi to the next level! We got the Miyako and Rainbow rolls. Fantastic. read more

First time here and the food is amazing and service is good. They serve the miso soup piping hot while other places serve it warm and their fish quality is REALLY good for the price. Had the bento box with 3 piece of chefs choice sushi, vegetable tempura, and spicy tuna roll. The tempura batter was super light, served HOT, with the perfect amount of dipping sauce. They even did onion ring tempura as one of the veg and it was amazing. Sushi served was toro, salmon, and yellowtail. Spicy tuna tasted so clean as well. I was shocked at how good the toro was. Green tea ice cream for desert was the only thing that left me wanting a more distinct flavor but they get points for serving it with this flower and cute flower spoon haha. Will absolutely be back! read more

The food was good, but customer service..... I ordered a takeout for three rolls of sushi and was given two packets of soy sauce. When I asked, "Can I have a few more, please?" the response I received was: "I gave you two, which is enough, but I'll give you one more this time!" Is soy sauce a luxury now? Are you the one deciding how much I'm allowed to have? read more

Amazing vibe by the beach! 10/10 I loved the atmosphere, the sushi chef, and the servers. From the moment I walked in, the place gave me such a good vibe. Most of all, I truly enjoyed the sushi prepared by the chef. Every piece felt thoughtful and perfectly balanced in flavor. The fish was especially high quality and incredibly fresh.
