Great sushi and nice atmosphere! Located in downtown Orlando. Definitely will be going back - they have happy hour M - F till 7pm We had some incredible rolls- The spicy scallop roll was delicious. Their hamachi sashimi was great quality and good size. Definitely the best one we've had- and we get this every time. The yellow tail roll was fresh and the rainbow roll was also great. Lastly we got the kanisu roll which is a great no rice option. Look forward to going back! read more

Shakai Sushi Lounge - Lounges Near Me - Orlando, Florida

My husband and I have been going to Shakai for years and they always deliver. Their happy hour is the best downtown happy hour around, featuring appetizers, beer, wine, other drinks, traditional rolls and specialty rolls. The food is prepared fresh to order, I like to sit at the bar and watch all of the rolls be prepared right in front of me. The restaurant is always busy (pics are from RIGHT when they open at 5) and is especially busy if there's a show at the Dr. Phillips Center, Magic game, etc. I've never had an issue getting in with a smaller group and have had 20-40 min waits for large groups (8+). read more

Shakai Sushi Lounge - Rock & Roll Crunch Roll - Lounges Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Soooo glad I found this place on tik tok. Perfect location for a quick walk from our hotel downtown! I'm glad we got in when we did because waves of other patrons came in after us. Everything was delicious and the waitress was quick and nice . I got the lychee saki martini and a whiskey n ginger ale . Our second batch of sushi, unfortunately we had to wait over 30 mins for & we ended up being super late to the game we were trying to get to. It's sad to say but it was worth it ! Haha ... would've love to been on time but the taste made up for it . You can't beat the prices & quality! read more

My friend Ashley took me here because I was depressed. Sushi makes me feel better for a little bit but this SUSHI had me uplifted until the end of the night. I'm assuming it's always Happy Hour and I'm all for it. The sushi was delicious. The staff incredible. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything was clean and fresh.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It was my first time ever going inside and I'm impressed. I couldn't believe that I've been living in FL for 4 years and I never went inside. I'll definitely come back but in a way better mood. read more

Shakai Sushi Lounge is hands down our go to spot for happy hour, and for good reason! The variety and selection on the happy hour menu, both sushi and drinks are unbeatable, and everything we've tried has been consistently tasty and fresh. The best part? Happy hour is every single day! It's rare to find that kind of value paired with such quality. My personal favorite is the Dragon Roll. It's flavorful, perfectly fried, and always satisfying. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Whether you're a sushi regular or just looking for a fun, casual spot to unwind, Shakai never disappoints.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Can't wait to go back! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Went here for dinner and immediately the vibes were great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our service was stellar with our server, April, being fun, personable, and attentive. We ordered the entree of the Chicken Katsu and 5 sushi rolls including the Eel roll, the Futomaki roll, the Hawaiian roll, the Crazy Coconut roll, and the Spider roll. Everything came out great and tasted delicious! My personal favorite were the Hawaiian, spider, and crazy coconut rolls. We also ordered drinks (a dirty martini and a lychee sake martini) that came out quick and were smooth to the taste. This was my second visit and I'll definitely keep coming back in the future! read more

At first when my girls told me we need to be there when they open, I kind of brushed them off. After going I understand why. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place gets packed Quickly![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] That says A LOT! The happy hour menu is so well priced, the service is fast, the food is fresh. The rolls are impressive. The coconut roll (I forget what was in it) I ended up ordering 2 though. When we were seated it wasnt full by the time we left there it was full and their was a wait. If you ever have a taste for sushi, this is definitely a great option downtown! read more

This has got to be one of the best happy hour deals in the area. Three of us shared an appetizer, 4 rolls and 2 drinks a piece; all for $60!

Shakai Sushi Lounge - Restaurant sign inside - Lounges Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Had a great time here! This restaurant is located right in downtown orlando. We went for happy hour because we just couldn't pass up the deals!! Sushi rolls priced between $4- $6 and amazing drink prices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was EVERYTHING. Low lighting, chill music, beautiful things to look at.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was pretty quick for a Saturday night. I wasn't a huge fan of the sake-tini due to sweetness but my husband loved it. We ordered the fireball roll, orlando roll and the alaska roll. They are not kidding when they named the 'fireball' its name. This roll was SPICY!!! Flavors were fresh and sushi was good. It might not be the best sushi ever but for the vibes, prices and drinks it was 100% worth it and we will definitely be making this a happy hour staple for us. Can't wait to return! read more

This is honestly the BEST sushi I have had in Orlando. We came to the happy hour specials (which are AMAZING), but have come back many times since. There are so many great options, and it is always so hard to decide. In addition to the sushi, we've had so many great apps here -- the edamame and crab rangoon were my favorites. The cocktails were actually very good, as well. The outside of the locations if really unsuspecting. We weren't really sure what we were walking into at first. But it is actually really nice inside. A lot of tables, great ambiance. I've always come and sat with no wait, although a couple of times the place filled up shortly after. Always had very good service here, as well. read more

Every time we go downtown for something, we have to go to Shakai! They have the BEST happy hour deals in all of Orlando! They have a ton of variety, they are all delicious, full size rolls and super cheap. You literally cannot beat it! Happy Hour is every day from 5 to 7pm, drink specials range from $3-$6 and apps and sushi rolls range from $4-$6. I've never been after dining hours, but supposedly it gets pretty lively, more of a club/lounge vibe. read more

I wanted to love this place! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is really lovely and our waitress was top notch![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We went during happy hour right when it opened. We tried the veggie tempura appetizer and spring rolls with this amazing sauce. We ordered nearly every specialty roll on the menu!! We liked several of the rolls, but overall, the sushi was just mid. The price was great, but the flavor just wasn't there and the quality of ingredients were not quite up to par for me. Our favorite was the "Rock and Roll" with Lobster & crab mix, cream cheese, tempura fried w/spicy mayo & masago. We also liked the "Mango Madness Roll" with Tempura krab, avocado topped with tuna, mango, scallions & spicy mayo; and "Crazy Coconut Roll" with Coconut shrimp, baked coconut flakes, eel sauce & scallion. I'm glad we tried this place when we were visiting Orlando, but wouldn't go back. read more

On 4/27/2026, we had a group of 23, some of us order the chicken with the pasta and vegetables and there was a ROACH cooked in my nieces food, had the manager come to the table, she only said yeah I see it, it's a roach, no apology or care in the world, like she was not surprised or cared, won't go back or recommend EVER! HEALTH DEPARTMENT will go inspect and hopefully close it down! Zero from us! read more

Awesome sushi spot located in Downtown Orlando. They have a great happy hour menu with sushi, apps and drinks on special. The interior is beautiful with lots of wood and an upscale vibe. We got four sushi rolls to share, two apps and 4 drinks on happy hour and our total was $60. They had some unique rolls, one with crawfish in it and another which we got that was deep fried and had lobster, both of which were included on the HH menu! I've been hearing about this place for a while and i'm happy we finally made it in. Downtown has changed a lot over the last few years but i'll venture down there for Shakai sushi! read more

We enjoyed several items from the daily 5-7 pm Happy Hour menu. The prices were very reasonable and includes food and drink specials. I think the $6 happy hour rolls are probably half the size of a regular roll, but it was perfect, especially if you want to try out different rolls. The seaweed salad appetizer was good. It was light, flavorful and crisp. I just wish it was a bit larger of a serving. You will get about 4 good bites from the happy hour portion for $4. There were 3 options for the $4 edamame appetizer, salt, lime or garlic. We opted for garlic and it was very tasty. It was a generous sized bowl of edamame to share. The $4 gyoza appetizer was ordered crispy and is served with the classic ponzu sauce. You can also order it steamed. The ponzu sauce is a citrus based soy sauce that always pairs well with gyoza. All in all, the rolls were decent. My favorite of the ones we tried would probably be the Crazy Coconut roll, followed by the Rock & Roll sushi. read more

I come here every now and then on Fridays with one of my friends to enjoy the amazing happy hour. We've never had issues before with service, food quality, etc. so we keep going back! However, I decided to go yesterday with my husband since he's never been and I'm always talking about it; our experience was the complete opposite in terms of service. Our server (I think the bill said "Jay"?) was really rude when we started ordering and after he brought our food, he just never came back. It was pretty ridiculous. To the point where we needed to ask another server for help because he just never came back to our table. We saw him walking around to other tables, serving others, and even when my husband waved him down, he turned around and walked the other way. Needless to say, the experience was horrible. It sucks that we've always had great experiences in the past and this was the only time we've dealt with this because otherwise my review would be a 5-star one. Anyway, the food was amazing, as always! read more

Why 4 and not 5. Because it is a good spot to come downtown before an event, great happy hour, sushi is good and overall it's decent. There is nothing wrong with a 4, it's just not quite a 5. I will go back, and have went back multiple times. Servers are great, never an issue and always good at getting more happy hour drinks, or that extra roll before you go. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside is modern, with a really cool decor, one of my favorites to stare at, but also some nuance that makes it unique.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Trying to find a place to eat, we walked past this place and decided to try their happy hour. Nice restaurant.. was not busy at all. We decided to sit at the sushi bar. Ordered salmon sushi roll and a coconut shrimp roll. Food was just ok. Seaweed used was extremely chewey..not pleasant. And guess, happy hour means rolls with little or no fish. Overall, it was just OK. read more

We saw on tik tok that they had a happy hour special so my girlfriend and I wanted to enjoy as much sushi as possible and delicious drinks. We came by and saw a wide variety which was intriguing but once we tried it was honestly a 3/5 rating there was nothing that gave me a pow in flavor. I ordered a red wine to go with it but the server brought me white twice. It seems the restaurant is a club at night because the ambiance is very club Chinese environment. Experience in total was a 3/5! read more

Shakai Sushi Lounge does it right by offering happy hour EVERY day AND until 7 pm, which is almost impossible to find in Orlando. Food: VERY decent prices for HH - $4 (basic) & $6 (more elaborate) sushi rolls / $4 appetizers / $3 nigiri / $5 sashimi. We ordered the fried gyoza and the croquettes as appetizers. The croquettes were crispy but made of potatoes and a little bit of carrot, which was unfortunate as we were expecting them to come with some sort of meat. The gyozas were okay. For the rolls, we had the California, salmon, Dragon, and Crazy Coconut - the two last ones were flavorful but can't really say the same about the first 2, so the overall recommendation for the rolls is to skip the $4 ones. Drinks: $3 bottled beer, $4 house wine, $5 calls, and saketinis. We had a bottled Yuengling and tried my friend's apple saketini, which was too sweet for my taste. Service: our server was not very proactive nor enthusiastic, but did the job . The food did not take too long to arrive either. Ambiance: the wood decor and the lightning are calming. The bathroom was clean, which is always a good sign. read more

Shakai is a restaurant/lounge in the Downtown Orlando area that has been around for many years. Located near the heart of the Orlando's bar scene is Shakai tucked in between various bars. They do also become a lounge after hours where all the seats are moved to make it for more of a club type of scene. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When you walk in you'll be greeted to a dimly lit environment that is illuminated with various light fixtures. It does lend itself to being more of a date night or appetizers and drinks with friends type of environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The room is fairly spacious with ample seating, we didn't have reservations but were seated immediately on a Friday night.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our hostess was friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered a variety of appetizers to start including a miso soup, crab rangoons, shrimp shumai, katsu and a bento box. The miso soup was very salty, haven't had miso soup this salty before. The crab rangoons were quite good, included what I believe was actual real crab and the cream cheese filling wasn't over the top. The shrimp shumai wasn't my favorite, the texture was very soft for me. The katsu was very crispy and seasoned well, the sauce to go with it paired quite nicely. The bento box included steak, shrimp, veggies and noodles and everything was quite good. The noodles were cooked very well and the veggies had a nice char to them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bottom line, this is a decent spot with decent food with a relaxed environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Since the food options Downtown are limited this is a decent spot to get some food in between getting drinks. If I came back it would be strictly for appetizers. read more

Happy hour is where it's at! We got decent amount of food and drink for less than $25! I had the gyoza, avocado roll, and the coconut roll with tempura shrimp which was surprisingly better than I had imagined! The dipping sauce for gyoza was salty and flavorful... perfect for the crunchy fried dumpling! The lychee sake martini was the perfect touch for this light, satisfying meal. I'm so surprised not many people were here, but it was a Monday so that might be why! read more

Looking for a nice Sunday Funday Brunch vibe, then look no further than Shakai Sushi Lounge. While I've been to Shakai on several occasions for more than just brunch, I will speak primarily on the brunch. While the name of the restaurant is Shakai Sushi Lounge, I can honestly say I've never had their sushi. However, I have had a few of their weekend brunch selections, in particular, their avocado toast and their French toast with berries. Both were quite good and filling. The lovely thing is, if you purchase an entree, you can upgrade your brunch experience to include bottomless mimosas and a side of your choosing for 2 hours for $45.00. It is truly a good deal for a weekend brunch - considering a few other popular brunch spots can get way pricier. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another great aspect is that typically, if you are looking for great music vibes and the opportunity to dance, then Shakai usually has a DJ during brunching hours to provide some of your favorite tunes to jam and move your body too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also offer hookah - if you are looking for that within your brunch / weekend experience. It is priced outside of the brunch menu, and you must pay for that separately. It's reasonably priced and they offer a handful of flavor profiles. Split between friends that enjoy that, it can run you about $12.00 per person. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, this is one of a few brunch experiences that offers food, music, hookah and bottomless mimosas. Orlando, unlike other major hub cities, doesn't offer too many of those opportunities and few restaurants tend to fill up quickly or require the cost of entry in addition to what you must pay once you are seated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So, it's refreshing, Shakai doesn't typically have a cover fee to get into their brunch. However, they do accept reservations. So, if you'd like a guaranteed table, reserve ahead. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As for the restaurant itself, it is mood-lighting forward. It's a bit darker inside, so if you are looking to take well-brightly, lit photos of your weekend look, then do so before you get inside or be prepared for flash photography.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating is ample in the main dining areas as well as at the bar. It's not usually too packed, but it does fill up on the weekends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food and beverages come out quickly. The staff is super nice, and the vibes are definitely provided! Definitely pay them a visit when the opportunity arises. Also, next time I visit, I'll be sure to make it a mission of mine to try their sushi, so I can share my thoughts on that. read more

I was staying nearby and was in the mood for sushi. I found this restaurant on yelp and headed over. This was a great find and I really enjoyed my meal. I came around happy hour and it was nice that they had food specials. I started with the Gyoza and then had a number of different rolls. All of the food was really good. I sat at the bar and there was also good banter. Service was really good and the place had a cool vibe to it. If I lived here, I would frequent it alot. Please support this business read more
