We loved Miyako! Peyton was our server and she was the best. So personable and made our experience worthwhile. Our sushi was fresh and incredible. We will definitely be back with friends and family. Ask for Peyton though! She was awesome read more

First time customer. Nice location right around the corner from downtown close to one of the parking garages. Nice clean establishment and friendly service. They have an amazing list of sushi options. I may need to use Yelp as a checklist of sushi I've tried! The tuna was good. The crab though... that was amazing. I look forward to going again. read more

Pretty good sushi! I found the sushi to be a little dry in parts, but overall, the rolls were fun and flavorful. I really enjoyed the lemon one! I can't remember the name, but it was a welcome addition read more

Me and some friends came to Miyako's which is our favorite Sushi Restaurant in Spartanburg. We had a variety of appetizers - one being a "dumpling" which was delicious. We had a variety of sushi rolls and they were all delicious. Our waitress - Annalee provided five star service. Our order was correct from beginning to end. She frequented the table often for additional drinks or special requests. Thank you Annalee for the fantastic service. read more

My go-to spot in town for a high quality sushi roll and sake, always! I've been coming here for almost 10 years now.

We love the good and the service by Sam & Paul. We moved from S. Fl and we were impressed with the food selection and especially the best customer service. read more

Miyako Sushi Group - They are open on SUNDAYS & MONDAYS too!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

I went last night with a date after a recommendation from one of my coworkers. My friend had the chicken fried rice, which made her happy because she could request which vegetables to add or leave out along with the chicken and rice. Her portion size was generous too. I had the sushi Mori large, and it was okay. It's described as a "chef's choice" with an additional side of spicy tuna or California roll. Like I said, it was just okay. The menu itself is overwhelming. It's hard to decide what you might want because the rolls seem placed on the pages without any kind of obvious organization. Service was good, the ambience left a little to be desired. It was a lot louder and more raucous than I expected for the price. There was nothing wrong with my meal, but there was nothing to make me want to rush back. read more

Food was good as always. Our server Emily was not. The definition of subpar. I went on a date night with my girlfriend. We both work in service and we had the worst server experience we have had there. We eat at miyakos 2-3 a month. If I had Emily every time I wouldn't go back. read more

This place quickly became my favorite place! They have so many options to choose from. Great vibe and the sushi is always divine. read more

Love this place. If you can catch them during a slow period, you've impressed me because they bring a lot of attention. Smaller intimate setting. Very nice decor and atmosphere overall. They range from traditional to modern spins on commonly know sushi rolls. Every single item is listed with a real photograph. There no confusion as to what you are ordering even if the roll is 100% unique to the restaurant. Prices are what you would expect for any reasonable sushi bar, but with really quality behind their dishes. I've spent the same at other places and they really craft everything they make and it shows in the flavor. I come here often and have not been let down yet even when they are packed. When I'm in the mood for sushi I have waited with enthusiasm when they have a queue for a table and that's and that's not something they I would normally do. When we go out to eat, we are usually hungry but even with hunger pains they are worth waiting for a seat and trying a few things you haven't tried before! read more

Miyako Sushi Group - There was very little conversation between everyone during that meal. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Spartanburg, South Carolina

Miyako' s opened for dine-in seating on Monday May 25, 2020 at 50% capacity. Social distancing was most definitely observed and we felt very safe and comfortable. Our waitress was Panisa, she wore gloves and a mask. She was so sweet and so appreciative that we were there. She kept a good watch over us and we never needed anything. The whole experience was outstanding. The highlight of the visit was of course the sushi. It was absolutely wonderful. Amazingly fresh and delicious. The presentation was beautiful. It was an absolute delight returning to Miyako for a wonderful lunch. read more

Love eating here. The sushi is great. We eat here every month or so. They do get crowded so try to hit non peak hours for faster seating.

Sushi was amazing. Went over Valentine's Day and ordered to go because it was so busy. Would love to eat here again next time in town.

The sushi alone is wonderful and there are tons of creative options. The menu is almost a book that has been an adventure to explore through every time we go. The salad and appetizer options are delicious and it's a lot more reasonably priced than you'd think. The environment is classy, but not pretentious. Great for groups, dates, family night, even a solo out. read more

Dinner for two on this Saturday evening and the place was packed! It is very loud in the dining room so be prepared to yell if you want to have a conversation. ;) Ordered beers and Gyoza (pan fried dumplings) appetizer to start. These little pork pockets of heaven were delish. For the sushi I ordered the Red Dragon, Salmon Lemon, and the Sixth Sense. I've had them before and they are my favorites and tonight did not disappoint. I also got to try the Mussels Yaki and I was very surprised how delicious these were. I will definitely be ordering this next time. Miyako is a solid sushi/Japanese choice... you will not be disappointed. read more

We are always content when we go here for dinner. The food and service are excellent. Great place overall.

Ok the sushi here is terrific !! And I don't know of anything else on the menu besides sushi because that's all I get Its fresh imaginative and always tasty. My favorite being the red dragon roll. My daughters both love the Tony P roll and the summer splash roll So the food is terrific but I normally prefer to eat takeout from here because while the tables are okay the chairs are old, worn and honestly quite dirty. There are often cobwebs easily seen and the bathrooms just have a dirty feel for them even if they're clean. Basically the inside is due for an overhaul. Otherwise it would give this place five stars So to avoid looking at these yucky things, look your friends in their eyes and have a good conversation & when your food comes ---eat your food with your eyes closed! read more

I wish I could take back the past hour of my life. Place was dead. We weren't greeted when we entered...so much so that I wondered if we were in the wrong place. Teenage hosts sat and studied seating chart for a solid- SOLID- 4 mins, in total silence, before instructing us to follow one of them to our table. No hi, hello, welcome to this crap hole. Bring your own water when you come, because no one will check on you. We left 80% of our food untouched. Sushi is not supposed to be mush dressed up in some Mayo concoction. They brought four rolls on one plate. When we asked which was which, the waitress answered "I don't know what you ordered actually". This being Soartanburg, there aren't a lot of choices. Next time, I'll go to Wendy's. read more

Welp. That was a disappointment from the minute we walked in. Hostesses barely looked up and barely acknowledged us. They were dressed in street clothes as if teenagers at the mall. Place wasn't busy (6pm on Wednesday night) but they sat us at a 2 top against the wall, with a table too small to hold apps and meals. We ordered 2 Apps and 4 rolls. One app came out after a ridiculously long wait, then one roll, then three more rolls, then finally the other app. No water was ever refilled. One roll was good. One was edible. The other 2 sat untouched. I did enjoy our 2 apps, though. It was my birthday dinner and they brought us the check without even asking if we wanted anything else other than a box for the untouched rolls. So much for dessert. Definitely a disappointing birthday dinner and will likely never be back. read more

This is our favorite sushi in the upstate. Always really good sushi and pleasant service. The mussels are spectacular. Some.of our favorite rolls are Summer Splash, Silk Road, Crab Crunch, Rainbow, and Ocean. All of the food we have had here has been good. The only reason they are not a 5 is because it is not fast. I think it is by design to an extent. It is a sit down and enjoy a nice meal place. Not a grab a quick bite on the way home place. We will always go back. Just do not expect anything fast. read more

My wife and I both ordered sushi, we were both disappointed, my wife felt nauseous after eating the sushi, all the sushi had a strong fishy taste which usually means the fish is old and not fresh. Would not recommend unless you like your sushi to taste old and fishy! read more

Quick easy sushi dinner in downtown Spartanburg. The staff is always menu savvy and great with recommendations

We met my wife's God-sister here for dinner on the Friday after Thanksgiving. This place was hoping and full of energy! As a vegan, I was able to get great choices and everyone was happy with their meals and the service! I am glad Spartanburg seems to be supporting this business as it is an excellent choice for sushi! read more

Miyakos is hands down the best sushi place ever! I have never once had a bad meal here. One thing I adore about this place is that there are pictures of literally every sushi roll. So you see what you will be getting, and it never disappoints! My top favorites are the black dragon roll and sweet chili crab roll. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

Ordered my usual lunch of Cal Roll, Tuna roll and eel roll. My tuna roll had 1/2 of the tuna that my dining mate had across from me and the eel roll had so little eel that I couldn't even taste the eel. Manager took 10% off my bill after I complained - wow, how pathetic ! May be going elsewhere for sushi in Spartanburg from now on. read more

We only ate here once because it was packed! The place seems clean and loads of people from this area and other surrounding areas love to go here. The sushi was good from what I can tell. I can't claim to be an expert in sushi but this provided my wife and I with a good date night. read more

Delicious and great service! Teen had potstickers and we had sushi, drinks were yummy too.

Food was fabulous as usual! This is a Spartanburg staple. You can expect consistency. Service was outstanding! As you look around, the staff is busy and you can tell they hire people with a strong work ethic. There aren't people just standing around like a lot of places. Our server was Caleb and he was awesome!! Cons: #1 its waaaaay too loud. They need something to absorb the sound. #2 its waaaay too bright. I literally had to put on my sunglasses to keep from starin into a huge bright light. They underestimate the importance of ambiance. Not that it should be a romantic dark room, but just a tiny bit darker and I would not have felt like I was on an operating table. read more

Amazing fresh sushi. Service is really great considering the crowds and workforce. Be patient and the food speaks for itself. The baked mussels are a must per visit as an appetizer read more

We were turned away by a "manager" I left out the real reasons because apparently Yelp has been busy removing reviews but this place picks and chooses who it wants to provide a service to read more

the discrimination seems to be getting increasingly worse. This has been my favorite sushi restaurant for almost 11years but here recently I have been ordering takeout because of poor service and passive aggressive racism. The last straw was when i caught the attention of my server before she walked off. Her Response was "yeah, What's up girl?" which I found to be very inappropriate since i was simply needing chop sticks. Plus I tip very well never gave them hard time so idk where lack of customer service comes in to play. read more

The sushi was alright along with the service. Our waitress wasn't very hospitable. I had questions about the menu and she was just ready to walk away before I could finish. read more

Delicious sushi. Friendly wait staff!! A very busy place if you're looking for something more chill and quiet this may not be the best place for that. But if you want some amazing sushi and LOTS of options it's worth checking out!!! read more

It's good. Not my favorite in Spartanburg by any means, but it's my second fave. The one over on East Main, Saki, is a good bit better in my humble opinion. But I like going to this one because it's downtown and I do like the bar like atmosphere inside. It can be loud though. read more

Absolutely the very best sushi in Spartanburg. Service average. Very cold inside during summer.

Eat here a few times a month. Always good, always great service. My wife loves the sushi and I like the appetizers and chicken fried rice. The dining area is very loud when the place is full so just be aware of this if you are looking for a quiet place to have dinner. The downtown has ample parking close to the restaurant. read more

It's sushi. It's delicious. Get the NIKU TATAKI. It's a game changer. Your date/family/friends will all think you're smarter for knowing about it, and you'll all enjoy the hell out of it. I recently discovered the Summer Splash roll. BOOM! It's incredible and refreshing! read more
