Sushi Tomi - Gyudon, miso soup - Japanese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

See all

Was craving their $17 lunch specials (Mon-Sat from 1130-2pm) - My go to is the chicken teriyaki with shrimp / veg tempura, fried rice, 2 miso soup (Instead of salad) and CA roll. The water here is clean tasting. To save the turtles they do not provide straws. I usually request the tempura and CA roll dine in and the rest is packed to go. (I get full fast). I always request to replace the side salad with the miso soup instead and they are ok with doing that. The tempura is lightly battered (2 shrimp, 2 green bean, eggplant , sweet potato). The tempura sauce is delicious. The CA roll is ok I mean its krab, avocado. Nothing fancy. It is rolled in masago. Staff here they have tendency to forget to refill water so try to request 2-3 glasses in advance when they ask for drink orders. Always check out the menu board - The specials can be interesting. My fave on that board that they offer sometimes is the beef tendon with tofu for like $6 ish. Love it with a side of white rice . The sauce is delicious. Reminds me of beef gyudon sauce. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place can get busy with japanese customers - especially lunch hours.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The lunch bento specials only are for lunch. Dinner do not have bento specials. They are closed for summer vacation and will re open on June 19th - I am not sure the start date of the vacation - I know its sometime early June. read more

Sushi Tomi has been around for awhile, and I hope it's around for forever. Obviously, barring that they get tired or other things happen. Sushi Tomi has been around for a long time. Sushi Tomi is one of the original secret Asian American staples of Orlando that opened in 2013 back when Orlando was known as Mickey Mouse's backyard. It's decently priced, albeit far, and provides a nice sense of comfort. We went on a week night and they were still super busy. Located closer to East Colonial area, it's at 8463 S John Young Pkwy, Orlando, FL 32819. Their claim to fame are their bento boxes and different lunch and dinner sets, which is to say you will leave full with a balanced meal. I won't lie, I have been wanting to go for the longest time. I felt like some kid pressing his face up against a window, just watching everyone go and enjoy their meal. So this was really great for me, personally. I got their dinner tempura and sushi set. The set came with miso soup and salad as well as a variety of meats and veggies that had been tempura coated and fried with a side of rice. I also ordered a sparkling jelly sake drink, a tamago nigiri and eel nigiri. My overall portion costed about $45 without tip. The set gets a 8.5/10 rating from me. I kinda wish I just went with the tempura set instead of trying to have the best of both worlds. Not that the sushi was bad or anything, but the tempura was really the star of the show. It was so fresh and crispy and light and amazing with the sauce they served it with. The sushi was fine and well made, I just had heart eyes for the tempura. The tamale nigiri and the eel nigiri was good, but not the best I have ever had. They had other things on their menu, but I really recommend going here for Japanese basic meals or comfort meals. I think it's not dazzling, but provides you with a sense of comfort. Not to mention the service was amazing, and it truly was authentic and not gentrified. My overall rating is 9/10 for the whole experience. I will be back whenever I am in the area. read more

A must do for any sushi lover! My friend recommended we visit and it did not disappoint. We specifically went for the sushi boat. It is as iconic as it is delicious! There is a plethora of sushi, sashimi, and raw fish that come on it. This is a great item to split with a friend or family and try a mix of what Sushi Tomi has to offer. We left full and very happy. I would definitely go back to visit, their menu items are very fresh and hard to beat. read more

Sushi Tomi is my new guilty pleasure, I can't lie! This unassuming restaurant has a great menu that's got affordable pricing and the portion sizes are larger than expected! I've had their sushi rolls (OBT roll), and their Pork katsudon (rice bowl). I don't know exactly what's the sauce that is on the Katsura but it needs to be bottled and sold immediately! The staff was very friendly, and they were coop front about the seating here with it being a smaller spot. Even on a hectic day during lunch rush the longest I've had to wait for a table is 10-15 minutes. This place looks like it would be a seat yourself situation but you do need to check in with the staff before sitting down to make sure you're not skipping the line of anyone else there that might be waiting. If you're a big fan of sushi or different incisions I recommend checking this place out! read more

My favorite shop to go to for authentic japanese dishes! The servers and staff were all really sweet and welcoming, and the portions of the food were big. The chicken katsu was delicious, with the sauce being semi sweet and salty, and with rice it was just perfect. They also gave some togarashi, which is a spicy seasoning, and adding that elevates the dish well. I also got the toro nigiri, as it was on the special menu board and the cut of the fish was big/thick, and it melted in your mouth. read more

Rating: 3.5 stars but I rounded up to 4. Sushi Tomi is a restaurant I've gone to for at least a little over a decade and it's been pretty consistent. It offers a lot of traditional Japanese items on their menu. I stopped off at lunch time with my family. The menu has changed over the years, but I always loved their grilled mackerel. My sister got the chirashi bowl and my nephew ordered the pork cutlet. We had the sushi roll combination for appetizer. We also got the miso soup and side salad. Maybe the chefs were having an off day. For me, I wasn't impressed with the grilled mackerel. It was a little dry and not flavorful. I ordered ponzu sauce on the side and it didn't help much. The sushi rolls were still good and my nephew enjoyed the pork cutlets. The chirashi was also nothing special but the fish was fresh. The miso soup was average and slightly bland. The dressing isn't my favorite as it's heavy on the vinegar and doesn't have the creamy ginger taste I'm used to. Although it wasn't my best experience that day, I'll still come back and try something else next time. I like to support authentic Japanese homestyle cuisine. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The seating is limited since the space is small but they have a quick turnaround.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A lot of Japanese customers so you know it's authentic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The servers are friendly and nice. Also, an added bonus, it has those fancy heated toilets with some extras in the women's restroom! Plenty of parking since it's in a shopping center space. read more

Love this sushi place. Usually come here for dinner but decided to do lunch here. We arrived at 12:30 and there was no wait. They have a sushi lunch special that was well priced. We had the lunch sushi and the lunch combo - shrimp tempura, chicken teriyaki came with soup, salad, crab or California roll and rice. The quality of the food was great. The sushi was fresh. Service was a little slow. Another local hangout as the waitress seems to know the regulars. read more

We had dinner here last night , and really enjoyed it. The location is pretty easy to find, with plenty of parking, in a strip mall. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is fairly small, with tables, as well as bar seating, where you can watch the chefs create any of the sushi dishes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We opted for two seats at the bar, were provided with menus, placed and received our drink order very quickly (I went with a leave hot sake, which felt like a steal a little over $10). We both ordered off the specials menu, which included soup, salad, then your main dish. Both were good, and came out, shortly after we ordered. Our sushi dishes took a bit longer (about 25 min), however, it was fun to sit at the bar, and watch them create all the different sushi rolls and dishes. My husband had the sushi combination deluxe - a tuna roll, along with the chef's choice of 8 pieces of Nigiri. He really enjoyed it. I had the Nama chirashi - chef's choice of 10 pieces of raw fish, in a box, over perfectly cooked sushi rice...yum! Not only was the box of fish arranged beautifully, it was also generously cut, and, quite tasty. We were so happy with our dinner - and will absolutely be back when we are in the area again! read more

Since my regular sushi place closed due to retirement (good for him! bad for me!) I've been struggling to find a replacement. I think this is it! Finally. The sushi rice here is the best I've had since Hatsuhana. The rice makes a huge difference. The service was fantastic and the food was amazing. Although I wish there was a bit more variety, and the cost was a bit high (edamame, 4 rolls and 2 beers was just over $100), this is definitely my new place. read more

Sushi Tomi - Japanese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

My bf and I came here as a recommendation from a friend. The workers are Japanese, so maybe it makes the sushi more authentic? It was clean and spacious, and we were seated right away on a week night. Our waitress told me the katsudon and tonkatsu ramen were popular among the younger crowd, so I tried the ramen. I enjoyed the variety of toppings like the traditional soft boiled egg, braised pork, and others. Noodles were a respectable firmness. BUT the sushi is what stands out! Flavorful and fresh. My bf got the unagi and tuna avocado rolls. I didn't get a picture of it, but if you can, I'd recommend the negihama roll. It's scallion and yellowtail. I really enjoyed it because the scallion adds enough flavor that you don't need any sauce. read more

Very homey spot, everyone speaks Japanese and they have a nice Japanese toilets in the bathroom. They import their rice from japan, Hokkaido and the quality is amazing! I had their salmon nigiri and it melts in my mouth. Their katsudon was ok, flavor is good but I wish it was crispy. Their beef tataki is really good but the star of the show was the OBT Roll. Wow. It was airy and flavors were absolutely explosive. Best sushi I personally have had. I normally don't like fried food but it doesn't feel unhealthy and I don't feel sick of it. Definitely Japanese quality! read more

Came in with a friend while visiting the area. We each had a spicy tuna bowl - I've had the roll, 100 times, but never like this. Delicious. Eggplant as an appetizer. Staff was incredibly welcoming - from a nice "welcome in" the second we entered to taking our order and serving food. We arrived the minute they opened and I'm so glad we did. 15 minutes later, the place was packed. That tells you how good it is. Plenty of parking. Conveniently located. Fair pricing and, as I said, great service. read more

I have been coming here since 2016 at least. This is my absolute FAVORITE restaurant in all of Orlando. (And I have lived here for about 20 years). If someone asks me for a recommendation? Sushi Tomi. If someone asks me where I want to celebrate (birthday, event, etc.)? SUSHI TOMI!!! I am genuinely shocked I have not reviewed this place, but when I say that this place deserves more than 5 stars, I MEAN IT. Be warned, I have a lot to say about this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance - calm, homely, cozy, and a great place to relax after work or getting a drink with friends (beer of course). The color palette is just so lovely and makes you feel so welcomed. It's a bit of a small space, but I feel like that adds to the cozy feeling. Very clean as well! (Probably the most clean place in all of Orlando.) Their bathroom also has one of those high tech toilets.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thought I would mention it because I don't think I have seen a place in Orlando with it. Service - TOP NOTCH. In all the years I have gone, NOT ONCE have I had a bad experience with servers. They are all super sweet, check in with you, and quick with bringing water and meals. The owner is super sweet as well and is probably one of the best parts of the restaurant that makes it stand out so much. She is so lovely and hard working. I have been going for almost 9 years (crazy to think about), but not once have I had anything less than a stellar experience. Food - OH MY GOD. You want some of the best food in Orlando? Go to Sushi Tomi. I am a Katsudon fan (I have tried other restaurants and NONE compare), but when I tried my friend's dishes, I have never been disappointed. I watched one of my more talkative friends go silent as he devoured the curry he ordered, only stopping to say how good it was. My friend ordered sushi (I believe she got the Orlando roll) and it was top tier. My personal favorites (as mentioned above) are the Chicken Katsudon (the pork is incredible as well, but I am more of a chicken gal) and the fried pumpkin. The Chicken Katsudon is so flavorful and balanced. The sauce is a little salty, little sweet, and a little tangy. The sauce is embedded into the egg and the breaded chicken as it cooks so each bite is a tender flavorful bite. The rice is plain, but that's so the sauce can seep into it and not have something overpowering underneath the flavorful meats. You can choose between a miso or a salad to go with it. I always choose the miso because it's so light and well flavored. The salad is not something to sleep on though. It's incredibly refreshing and perfect to have in the summer! The fried pumpkin is to die for. The pumpkin itself is a more mellow flavor and has the perfect fluffy texture of a cooked pumpkin with a nice crisp crust. When paired with the salty, slightly sweet sauce, IT'S TO DIE FOR. I want to add points to the flavor as well because I don't have a sense of smell, so sometimes the Umami flavors are missed on me, but I have experienced that flavor and it was here. If you have a sense of smell or not, this place is the best and so amazing with balancing flavors. I also want to mention that I have recommended it to several friends and not one has come back with a negative review, only rave reviews about how they love it. If I ask friends if they want to go to Sushi Tomi, I will always get an excited yes and a "I'm so excited" as we build up to the moment they open at 5:30 pm. We will actually fast throughout the day so we can devour their food. I have probably wrote a novel here, but out of any place I have ever been, I would say this is my number one spot for a reason. If you are in Orlando, YOU MUST GO HERE. Don't waste time on tourist traps or whatever the influences are saying is hot now. This is a tried and true restaurant that has been consistently incredible since the day I started going here in 2016. 100000/5 (Pardon my photos, I'm not the photographer of the group and the pumpkin photo was after we started taking pumpkin off the plate and eating.) read more

Super authentic Japanese food! They serve the best pork katsu, it's unbelievable how it can be so light and crisp. It's a small place so it tends to fill up fast. Some people will come a little bit before opening to make sure they can snag a seat right away. Service can be slow sometimes but everyone is very nice. It's a little pricey but everything tastes phenomenal and the portions are solid. The sushi is amazing and you can order specialty items depending on availability. They serve dishes that you simply can't find elsewhere like Japanese curry and unadon. A must-go if you like Japanese food! read more
