We came to celebrate my friend's birthday! She had never been here so she was excited to try it. We made an early reservation and came right after work. We ordered the Omakai Experience which came with 9 courses for $75. To drink, I had a non-alcoholic peach bellini and my friend had 2 sakis. Our server was Franco and he was wonderful. My friend said it was the best meal that she's had all year!! I was happy that she liked it! We parked in a garage close by for $22. I think it was the Mayfair garage. The restaurant is a beautiful blend of glass and wood. We had a lovely evening. read more

We came on a weeknight and surprisingly was busy. The place is dimly lit and a little bit loud. It was definitely meant for people who are extroverts. We waited about 15 minutes for a table. Once we were seated, it took a few more minutes before someone came over. We ordered pretty quickly and surprisingly the sushi came fairly quickly. Everyone ordered the Oma deluxe which includes an appetizer, 2 hand rolls and several pieces of nigiri. It was actually pretty filling. We actually ordered an extra order of blue crab hand roll which they forgot, but came out fairly quickly after we reminded them. The food was actually pretty good for a chain sushi place. Will def want to come back next time we're in Miami. read more

Omakai is a must for anyone who loves sushi. I go here for everything from casual lunches to full omakase dinners, and it never disappoints. My go-to is the Oma Deluxe, which gives the full omakase experience and is always impressive. The price is great, especially considering the taste and quality you get. The fish is extremely fresh, and the service is consistently excellent. You can tell the team really cares about the experience. This is a perfect spot for sushi lovers, omakase first-timers, casual dinners, or special occasions. The price to quality and taste ratio is unmatched, making it a spot I recommend to everyone I know. read more

A different kind of experience! Came here to grab a bite to eat before going out to explore the area. Started off with the edamame which you can't ever go wrong. Then had a glass of Pinot Grigio - really good! I also had a blue crab hand roll and the salmon tasting. They explained the concept of the salmon tasting and each piece tasted different but delicious. The service was good, our waiter was attentive and answered any questions we had on the menu. It's a beautiful restaurant only one downfall was the super obnoxious table behind us literally screaming and being so loud. We're in a nice place, everyone else is being respectful but this one table. Nobody seemed to speak to them or anything but it ruined the vibe inside. read more

This is my favorite sushi place in Coconut Grove. The sushi is always fresh and delicious. I saw them at the Miami Open and did not think twice about stopping by. I was not expecting the food to be quite as good as it is at the restaurant, but it absolutely was. The main drawback was the packaging, which was not very user-friendly and made it difficult to access the seaweed. Aside from that, everything was great. read more

I got the 10 piece omakase to-go box and was in love! Along with the 10 pieces of nigiri, the meal also came with a bite of soba noodles, 2 maki rolls and 3 pieces of salmon sashimi. I loved that the box comes with a guide on best order to eat and pair. This "to-go" omakase box was so fresh and I highly recommend! read more

So as I'm sure you all know this location is very beautiful. They have a couple scattered all over town but we really wanted to go to this location. I absolutely love the food, I love the energy in the building and the service was top notch. I think the reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because although the environment was extremely welcoming and the food was really good, it felt as though we weren't super welcome. You guys can go over my check ins, I am a variety eater. I love a good hole in the wall and I love a 5 star Michelin situation as well but it felt very unwelcoming to me and my kid. Yes we weren't dressed the way they needed us to (we were just running in and out) but the environment wasn't super welcoming when it comes to solo dates with my 11 year old. We had a great time, the service was still so top notch and very rushed but it wasn't super welcoming to us but we still had a great time! And we'll be back. Thank you for having us! read more

Stopped in for the cool air conditioning and refreshing glsushi on a hot day in Miami. I love the Oma and my hubby gets the Ima Deluxe. I don't care for a blue crab, so I asked to substitute the blue crab hand roll for something and they subbed yellow tail for me. We always have such a great experience at the Omakai in Coconut Grove. The hostesses and our waiter were very friendly and helpful. The food is great quality and delicious . My only callout is they don't have low sodium soy sauce, but they do offer gluten-free, which is tamari. I highly recommend this place for lunch! ( note to self : next time I'd try to order the verlaso salmon in ponzu sauce , the smoked sea bream and the Okami. I also enjoyed the yellow tail and hamachi. Those were my favorite! The Oma course was way too much food for me ! ) read more

The place is nice and vibrant. We came here for lunch and all of us had the Oma omakase. The dishes did take quite a bit to come out each round so I wouldn't come here if you are in a rush. Our server was helpful, he explained the menu and all of the dishes although he didn't seem very enthusiastic. As for the food, I thought the nigiri courses as well the handrolls were very good. It was worth the value and not extremely expensive, although this course will not get you full at all and the handrolls are quite small. Do recommend to try! read more

My boyfriend and I had an incredible dining experience at Omaki in the Grove. He originally wanted to go all-in with the chef's experience which was 16 courses, but I wasn't sure I could handle that much food so we compromised and went with the Deluxe Experience which was 12 courses instead. And honestly, It was the perfect choice. Every single piece we were served was absolutely phenomenal. The attention to detail, the freshness of the fish, the balance of flavors. To top it off, we added the Wagyu Roll on the side, and that was a mouthwatering in itself. Rich, tender, and perfect. The atmosphere was intimate and relaxed, and the staff was great from start to finish. The tables a little close to ea h other but other than that we were completely impressed. Whether you're a sushi lover or just looking to treat yourself to something memorable, Omaki is 100% worth it, and reasonable compare to other omaki experiences. I'm already thinking about when we can go back, maybe next time I'll go for all 16 courses! read more

Came to OMAKAI for well the omakai experience. The restaurant is stunning with subtle ambient lighting reeling you in. We got the OMA, and each bite was divine. The fish was melt in your mouth fresh, each with a different subtle seasoning to change it up a bit. The salmon with lemon and sea salt was absolutely vibrant. The bluefin tuna was my personal favorite, highlighting the fish overall. The servers were attentive, but that just meant that I was in and out in less than an hour, so the experience was quite quick. read more

This place is decent for sushi. I got their oma bite to go. It came in a really cute bento box that had instructions on which order to eat the pieces and which soy sauce to use for each piece of fish. Their edamame was good but could benefit from a little sauce. The oma bite is a good amount of food if youre not starving, but still hungry and want a good taste of sashimi, nigiri, and a sushi roll. Pretty good sushi, not the best tasting ive ever had, but really good place to order from when youre in a pinch. read more

I came here for the first time for a birthday dinner, and we really enjoyed the experience. We ordered the OMA Deluxe and also went with the suggested summer menu, which was about $10 more. Overall, the experience was worth the price. The service was quick and attentive, keep in mind to make a reservation, as it can get quite busy at night. The ambiance was super chill and very modern. I'll definitely be back to try the 17-course menu. read more

The most comprehensive assortment of the freshest fish presented with an artist's touch. The subtle flavors and the unique dashes of flair made each bite spectacular. The pricing is eminently fair! The sake menu is extant! We had the 3 different prices fixe menu options and one person ordered à la carte. Everything was wonderful read more

Overall delicious, but I wasn't aware I was given the lunch menu, as it was not written anywhere on the menu- not even under "Fall 2024". I recommend them to make this "Lunch, Fall 2024". This menu error resulted in a higher bill ($50 for deluxe vs. $40). It also resulted in there being too much food served to me. Am I mad? No. Annoyed? Most definitely. My social anxiety didn't let me address this at the table, too. Will I never go again because of this? Unlikely. Now down to business: I ordered the sushi deluxe, and it was delicious. I had a few pieces where I think the rice may have been undercooked, but I really couldn't tell. I loved the king salmon with lemon and sea salt. It was definitely my favourite. I encourage everyone to try the sashimi without any soy sauce, as the pieces were delicious as prepared. I also had jasmine green tea. The ambiance was cozy and intimate- would be a good date night spot. Would not be good for children. Service was very good as well. Plates were promptly removed- maybe a little rushed at times, but nothing impacting my dining experience. I do like when restaurants include service charge for wages, so they do get points there as well. Overall I'll go again because it was tasty and very reasonably priced- even with menu error. read more

Omakase sushi style cuisine has been all the hype in Miami. I have been wanting to go for ages ! When a dear friend of mines bday came up I knew it was the perfect chance to go. We booked before hand for 3 people. Parking was easy. We went for the Oma Deluxe option for Omakase. Each dish was brought out one after the other. It was absolutely delicious. What stood out to me was the hand rolls. The service was great . The mochi was the only extra thing we ordered . I just wish it had a better bday celebratory option. Like it had happy bday written or a candle. Overall I highly highly recommend this spot for omakase ! We paid $55 dollars for the omakase Oma deluxe per person. They also have a vegan option. I am definitely coming back here. A great vibe . Good for a friends catch up or a date . read more

I am very pleased with Omakai's Happy Hour options. I had heard they offered amazing quality and freshness at unbeatable prices that was definitely the case. The staff was friendly and efficient. We sat by the bar, quite small, so plan accordingly, but the restaurant is appealing and family friend. We love how diverse the selection of food in the happy hour menu was and tried everything multiple times. Compared to other restaurants, they win in affordability without sacrificing taste. My only feedback will be to expand on the sake list. We will return. read more

I have been here a few times now, and each experience has been fantastic. The servers are always so kind, and the service is top notch, without having a 'stuffy' feel. The restaurant itself is gorgeous, it is so nice to see the bustle of the Grove through all of the windows. I love that much of the restaurant is windows, but it also tucked away and a place to have a lovely meal. The sushi is fresh and yummy, and they add the prefect touch of flavor to a classic dish. I went for their first Sake Club with some friends and we loved it! They pair a sake with a dish (think Omakase with a paired sake). We learned a lot about sake, and had a great time! They will be changing the menu for this Sake Club every month. Highly recommend! My favorite from the Sake Club menu was the Torched Dorade (which I had never had before) and of course the Salmon Belly!! We also ordered from the regular menu, too. The Sake Club was $50/person. Will definitely be back next month for the next Sake Club! read more

Ok I want to start off by saying I am one of Omakai's biggest fans. I give it a five star review almost every time, and I go to their hand roll bar once a week at least. However, I think they really missed the mark with this "deluxe summer series" menu. It's an extra $15 for seemingly elevated pieces, but it seemed to me like the same pieces of sushi, with a little extra topping - such as some shaved truffles, or a couple pieces of ikura. The garnishes did not accentuate the dish to warrant a $15 upcharge, and I would have preferred the regular deluxe menu, and ordering extra pieces. Many of the regular deluxe items were BETTER than the summer series, and my friend and I both agreed on this. Let me be specific-- for started they give you these cold noodles, which my friend and I both thought were nasty. The brosh was really fishy, the noodles had a strange texture. I can't imagine a world where a patron would prefer those over the typical seaweed salad. Neither one of us finished this dish, or had more than a few bites. The seared salmon was fine, but the salmon sashimi with ponzu onions far and away takes the cake. This did not compare at all. Then as previously mentioned, the other nigiries were great as always, but just with little changes that did not warrant this price difference in our opinion. There was one thing that absolutely blew us away. I have never ordered Omakai's uni, and my friend and I both ordered two pieces of their Japanese uni. It was OUTSTANDING. Served so ice cold, it melted in our mouths and was extremely creamy. For most people, uni is an acquired taste, but I cannot imagine anyone not absolutely loving this piece. Not only was it the best bite we had, it was the best bite I've had at Omakai thus far, and might just be one of the best bites of Uni I've ever had in general (and this is including my trip to Japan.) With that said, the service was great as usual, and place was packed for a Thursday lunch. I will recommend Omakai every time. read more

5 Stars - The Best Sushi Experience Ever! If I could give Omakai Sushi in Coconut Grove more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! I had the Oma Experience, and it was, without a doubt, the best sushi I have ever had. Every single bite was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly crafted. You can tell the chefs take immense pride in their work, and it truly shows. The service was just as outstanding as the food. From the moment I called to make a reservation, the hostess was incredibly sweet and welcoming. Her positive energy over the phone made me excited before I even arrived, and when we walked in, I immediately recognized her--it was the same girl! She radiated warmth and enthusiasm, setting the perfect tone for an amazing dining experience. If you're a sushi lover (or even if you're not), Omakai is a must-visit. The ambiance, the impeccable service, and the unforgettable Oma Experience make it a standout spot. I can't wait to come back! read more

Still come to this place but recently I have been having not so great experience because of the service. The hostess has said rude comments to us the past two times. And I mean really, when you're working the front of the house it's better not to say anything disrespectful to your customers. The past two times we've had to wait a good 20 minutes, at least, for our table despite having a reservation. This most recent time, I didn't enjoy the service from our waiter either. I get it, it's busy but the passive aggressive tone just gets old during the whole dinner. As for the food, it's always good but after coming here 5 times, it gets a little old. Don't get me wrong the fish is delicious and their plates are great. But, they don't change. I think for newcomers it's great and I also recommend to come during lunch. Every time I've come for lunch it's been a great experience, dinner not as much. Also I want to mention the second hostess came up to us a little after we sat to see if we were doing okay after waiting for so long (and maybe because she heard how rude her co-hostess was)! read more

I went to Omakai on Friday for happy hour with my friends and I was truly impressed. First, I'll start off by saying that their happy hour prices are great and they have delicious options for both bites and wine or sake. We later had dinner and I got the Oma option. Every piece of sushi was delicious and had the perfect amount of flavors! I also feel like their pricing is great. Our server's name was Sierra and she was lovely. She was very knowledgeable on the menu items and was just a good vibe all around, which is refreshing to see. I must add that while we were there unfortunately one of the employees had a medical emergency and I was truly impressed on how the other employees reacted and helped their fellow coworker and kept the situation under control. Even after the medical emergency scare we still had a great time and delicious food. I will be back asap! read more

Omakai was a fantastic experience start to finish -- the omakaze style makes for a fun, different dinner experience that feels more exciting than just ordering your own sushi. Most omakaze restaurants feel overly fancy and intimidating and while the food is incredible at omakai, it still feels approachable and casual enough for a night date night or dinner with friends. The basic dinner omakaze was enough for our dinner yet we didn't feel overly stuffed. Food: the food was absolutely delicious. The fish was fresh and you get a great variety with the prefix menu Atmosphere: the restaurant is really pretty and has an upscale vibe without feeling overly fancy or stuffy Service: we had an incredible server who was extremely attentive and made sure the food was timed out properly read more

Omakai my love sushi dreams, and sake hugs never a bad time // That, my friends is my love letter aka haiku to Omakai Sushi. I have adored this spot since it opened in Wynwood, and selfishly I am so happy to have it closer to home in the Grove. Omakase experiences are popping up all over Miami and they all have something in common - they are quite pricey. But NOT Omakai. You can enjoy the Oma delux - featuring TEN courses of nigiri, appetizers and hand rolls for $40. Yes, you read that right. They also have a more lavish experience which will cost you $95 - still a lot cheaper than many omakase experiences. Omakai also has happy hour Monday - Saturday from 3 - 6:30. My suggestion - pop in for a wine and a hand roll. You won't be sorry. My stand outs are always the blue crab hand roll, scallop nigiri and whatever the seasonal fish nigiri course may be at that time. The food here is always fresh, service is friendly and you can expect a solid meal for a great price every time. Follow them on IG to see when they launch new seasonal menus like salmon and caviar, wagyu, and other fun favorites. Omakai, heart hands to you. I truly never say no to dining here. read more
