    Oolong Tea
    Dave S.

    One of the best sushi spots I've ever visited! Service was quick and friendly and the rolls were AMAZING. So flavorful and fresh tasting! And at only $8 a roll? You can't beat that! They catered towards me having a shellfish allergy as well and made sure my rolls were not cross contaminated :) The restaurant was so cute and had loads of amazing decor, the music was slow jazz/Frank Sinatra vibes. Definitely a cute spot for a date or just a solo 3rd space quick meal, I would highly recommended!

    Mango Roll
    Christine S.

    I've never been, but I'm craving sushi and do t feel like leaving the house this evening. Ordered delivery on Uber eats. The prices online were similar to the prices on the dine in menu (with only about a .50-$1 up charge per item). Not bad! I was excited to receive my Ginger salad, Miso soup and Mango roll. The pictures online made it look delicious! The salad was basic, but the dressing was chunky and flavorful. The miso soup was standard to what you get at most Japanese restaurants. The mango roll was the star of the meal! It was delicious! Crispy tempura shrimp in a roll topped with fresh and delicious mango! I'll have to go to the location some day and try more of the menu!

    Shrimp Tempura Appetizer

    Winter Park-A tiny little sushi cafe hidden away in a strip mall. Food was really good, but service was slow for only 2 tables with people. We were there just after 12:30 for lunch. Started out with the tempura shrimp appetizer. The ponzu/dipping sauce didn't have much flavor. The tempura batter was very thin, just like I like it! It needed some salt, but was crispy. Veggies were a good combo of onion, bell pepper, sweet potato, and broccoli. We had the Moonshine Roll & the Godzilla Roll. The kiwi on the Moonshine Roll was a great touch. The Godzilla Roll was a little crunchy from a small amount of tempura batter that it had been dipped in and (possibly?) fried. It didn't mention that on the menu, so I was pleasantly surprised by the "outside crunch" of the pieces. I would have liked a little bit more flavor from the wasabi sauce & the garlic sauce. Both were a little bland. I feel like that roll needed a little bit of punch to it. It was supposed to have Stiracha on it, but I am not able to eat Sriracha. Other than that, both rolls were pretty legit, filling wise. Last but not least was the fried bananas and ice cream dessert. The tempura coating on the banana lacked flavor. We had to ask for extra chocolate sauce too. Overall, it was just OK. We'd definitely return to try some other items on the menu.

    1st visit and really great! Had the Hamachi Carpaccio as an app and we both had the 2 roll lunch special with salad. Excellent service, well timed and efficient and competitive priced. Impressive menu. Will definitely return.

    A+ service and food. I was not cooking today ao I found Sushi Kawa, which was close to my casa and drove down around 630p. There was one other person dining in. Made my order of a can of Sprite ($3), a volcano roll and a moonlight sonata ($14 each). The rolls were tasty and filled me up. The ambiance music was a nice soft jazz when really helped chill me out.

    Jalapeño appetizer
    Lisa M.

    We've been several times now for both lunch (specials even on weekends!) and dinner and everything has been good. Nice sized menu with dishes for even non-sushi fans. Some of our favorites include the jalapeño crab appetizer and the Wicked Ahi Roll. The space is chill and clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It's nicely priced for the quality, middle of the line - not fancy/pricey but not so cheap you question if the fish is fresh. Only thing I had that wasn't outstanding was their summer rolls which were way too noodley and the peanut sauce was too watery and didn't have much flavor. But given it's a sushi restaurant and not Vietnamese or Thai it's still pretty decent. Pro tip - get a side of garlic sauce (their version of white/yumyum sauce) because it's very addictive and goes great on anything fried.

    Assorted nigiri
    Laura D.

    This was way below the expectations based on the reviews by others but there was no question. The mackerel came last and we realized it was still not fully thawed - yuck. The nigiri often fell off the rice when picked up. I am GF and they could only bring me a small dish of Tamari from the back. I should have insisted to see the bottle to be sure. The rolls were quite small for the price. The server was inexperienced and could not answer questions about the menu. It's ok to be learning but that should trigger getting answers instead of giving excuses. We were the only lunch diners for most of our visit yet felt a bit rushed by the service.

    Fried Chicken Roll, Spicy Tuna Tempura Roll, Salmon Avocado Roll

    Great place. Small, clean, good music and volume. Service was great, quick water refills and brought our food out fast. Great deal and portion size for the lunch deal. Not pictured is the ginger salad (or soup) that comes with the lunch special. ~$16.50 (incl taxes) each. And of course the sushi was great!

    The service is great in this little strip mall Sushi Kawa. I enjoyed the steamed goyza also salmon and tuna salad and the oldie but goodie, Volcano roll. The wasabi was on the underwhelming side, and the dumplings were not as hot (temperature-wise). Other than that, I think it is a quaint little restaurant, clean and tidy, plenty of parking

    We walked in and were immediately greeted and we were told to sit wherever we'd like. The service was amazing! They helped us pick out fried rolls for my boyfriend and he picked the tempura roll and Godzilla rolls. I had ordered the ginger salad and destiny roll. We loved how their rolls are deep fried, very crunchy not too much tempura batter which some other places fried rolls are thick full of battery and this one was light and enjoyable. All rolls were flavorful, I really loved their eel on the destiny roll because it had so much freshness to it. Also love the ginger salad perfect amount of sauce you can actually taste and see the ginger chunks.

    Dynasty and Mango rolls.
    Claudine C.

    We stopped by Sushi Kawa after reading good reviews in a foodie forum. This place definitely did not disappoint. We started with a few apps and everything was excellent. The tuna toast was my absolute favorite. I ordered a Japanese Lychee soda and it was delicious, not too sweet. The rolls were so tasty. The fish was fresh and tasty. We ended with a fried cheesecake for dessert. We will definitely be back.

    Cute decor

    This place is delicious and has the best sushi! Highlyyyy recommend! I love mango on my sushi and it was one of the best mango sushi's I've ever had.

    Pros: Loved the Magical Dining menu they offered this year…read more I always question if the $60 ones are worth it. This one was. Ambiance is gorgeous inside. Intimate lighting, jamming music, and just high energy all around. Service was great. Our server was very attentive, the drinks kept flowing, and mostly importantly, we didn't feel rushed. It's always a rush to get Magical Dining people out the door, but not here. Loved it. The food was really, really good. It outshines so many other sushi places in Orlando. No wonder it's on the Michelin guide. Cons: Not a single con. A really nice experience. Tips: If you're looking around for Magical Dining places, and are wondering if you should come here, the answer is yes, you should. You absolutely must order the Berkwood St. Louis Sticky Ribs. But do not pay the extra for that Ube Cheesecake. Not worth the upgrade price.

    Magical Dining time! I vetted all 180+ menus, and picked a…read moretop seven. Kabooki made my top seven. That's a hard thing to do. There are a lot of good menus out there this year, but Kabooki just stood out. A good variety, great sounding flavors, customizable sushi entree. It was a clear good choice to make. Ambiance is always great at Kabooki. Dimly lit, a sleek, energetic bar right up front, an omakase bar over in the corner with a great view of the chef's working, and a playlist that just won't quit. It's all very swanky and full of hexagons. Service was great, too. We had a very nice, attentive server. And even though the pace was certainly not lackadaisical, we did not feel rushed at all, which is unusual for a Magical Dining reservation. Usually the restaurants can't wait to get us out the door, but here, we felt very welcome. It was nice. As for the food, for a $60 menu, they had their work cut out for them. would coming here be worth paying $40 total for both our meals? Long story short, yes, absolutely it was. Apps Maguro Truffle (tuna, bubu arare, shiitake crèma, balsamic truffle soy, serrano peppers). This was banging. Huge slabs of fresh tuna, covered in crispy crunchy little circles, and that shiitake crema, very umami, I licked the plate. I wasn't about to let any of that go to waste. Hamachi Carpaccio (Japanese yellowtail, yuzu tobiko, ponzu, kaffir lime oil, yuzu kosho, serrano peppers). This was not carpaccio. It was a menu play with the wagyu carpaccio right above it. But it was five excellent slices of fresh hamachi with a very bright sauce that it was laying in. Generous slices, too. Great apps. Mains Berkwood St. Louis Sticky Ribs (braised, then crispy tempura, tossed in smoked chili, hoisin sauce). I'll say it, these were the best Asian ribs I've ever had in Orlando. Tempura crispy exterior, melt in your mouth interior, and whatever they tossed it in, including sesame seeds, formed a beautiful little crust on the outside. Best bite of the night. Hands down. Two Makimono (pick 2: tom yum roll, hawaiian x.o roll, booki booki roll, spicy tuna roll). Tom Yum (panko shrimp, avocado, topped with torched salmon, tom yum aioli, thai chili flakes, micro cilantro, lemon wedge). Hawaii XO (yellowtail, avocado, tobanjan aioli, crispy shallots, topped with white fish, lemon confit, kaiware, pink salt). Both were very good rolls. The Tom Yum aioli was a very unique touch, which is what I was looking for. I'm so jaded with rolls nowadays, I really need to be impressed. The Hawaii roll was nice, too. Looking back, I don't recall or see any crispy shallots. Make sure to compare your rolls to the menu when you come here. Desserts C4 (chocolate lava cake with dulce de leche, vanilla ice cream, and chocolate ganache sauce). This was good. Textbook lava cake with all the decadent flavors you except, and a nice, cold ice cream to pair perfectly with it. Ube Cheesecake +$8 (graham cracker crust, topped with torched meringue, toasted coconut). Only two dollars more on the regular menu, but eight dollars more here. I still wanted it so badly, but I recommend you pass on this upgrade. It was a very good ube cheesecake, but it was not add-eight-dollars better than the creme brulee would have been. Overall, Kabooki is a very good little spot. With everyone and their mother offering fresh fish and sushi rolls nowadays, Kabooki stands above a lot of them in terms of quality and quantity of their offerings. No wonder it comes Michelin recommended. I'll definitely be back one day.

My main course of the Chirashi Fusion - Chef's selection of sashimi & toppings over sushi rice was a nice detour in style for me. The real standout in my mind was the freshness of the fish. You could really tell there was a difference as compared to many other places I have been. Service was generally good. Even though I had it, I am still not entirely sure what the "Fusion" option adds to the Chirashi. As for the place itself, it has a great modern feel. Super clean and though parking can be tough for this area the lot way in the back (not too far from where this place is) seems to have the best luck.
