    Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. We enjoyed every dish, especially the tuna tostada. The restaurant has a very busy takeout area, which is separate from the dining area. It's a modern space and everything, including the bathroom, is clean. Unfortunately, several items we requested were not available. Also, while the server was friendly and efficient, she seemed stretched thin. The restaurant is very busy and could probably benefit from additional servers. The excellent food, however, stands out above all else.

    The agua Chile was my favorite!! So fresh and amazing flavors. The sushi was also very good! My only complaint is they were out of thing when I went but that's probably because everything is fresh and I went two hours before they were closing. Definitely coming back to try some of those items I wasn't able to! I love how fast everything came out!

    Scored a great pickup from Belly Fish on Uber Eats--they always have killer deals and steals! The fish tasted super fresh, the spicy mayo is insanely good (that creamy kick is perfect), and my absolute favorites were the crispy rice and the tuna tostada. The tuna belly fish is definitely up there as one of the best quick spots for solid sushi in Miami. Highly recommend--fresh, flavorful, and worth every bite!

    Belly Fish is continues to impress with its new sit down part of the restaurant. The decor is simple and elegant, the wait staff is constantly helping you with every little thing. And the food is just as delicious. My favorite dish there doesn't even involve fish. It's the miso eggplant bowl that is a wonderful addition to their fish heavy menu. Don't get me wrong the sushi is also delicious and their sauces, especially eel sauce, are divine.

    Sushi is good and prices are reasonable but service was not good when I went. What I expected to be a quick lunch took over an hour

    Chirashi

    Quickly becoming a go-to for me! Came here twice already and ordered either the spice menu. The salmon sashimi appetizer is really tasty and I also liked the tuna one. The chirashi is great and I also liked the sushi combo. Place is clean and the sushi is nicely plated and tasty. Love that it's simple! We need more of that in miami. Nice servers.

    To me, Belly Fish is an elevated fast casual sushi spot. They offer many varieties of fish, and even have ikura (salmon roe) based plates for roe lovers. The service is quick and easy and everything is nicely plated into these compartmentalized boxes. I love that they offer more than soy sauce. They have chipotle ponzu and yuzu ponzu (my favorite). I've never had an issue with the fish, it seems to be fresh, but the cuts are generally slightly smaller than other restaurants. The lunch combos seem to be worthwhile, offering a side on top of the main course. I love their yuzu broccolini! Overall, this is a pretty good option for fast casual sushi in Miami.

    We've been here twice for Miami Spice already - that says how much we love this place. I've heard great things about Belly Fish back when it was take out only, but I live too far away to be ordering take out from there. I am thrilled therefore they now have a brick and mortar store and finally Miami Spice gives me the perfect excuse to drag my husband along. We really like the decor of the place, which reflects what their sushi is like, simple, elegant, restrained. Just fresh, clean fish, simple and delicious, not overloaded with sauces and a load of ingredients. There are not a lot of varieties in fish, but whatever they have is high quality. The first time we went, we were disappointed that none of the dessert options was available - due to a busy weekend. Seriously? It was a Wednesday. But the waiter offered us cookies, or another handroll instead, an offer we gladly took up, as there were so many things we wanted to try on the menu. For our second visit, the menu indicates that we can sub a dessert for handroll or miso soup. A great option for people who don't have a sweet tooth. Their regular prices are pretty reasonable for the quality, so it's a place I can regularly come for my sushi fix. My only complain is that street parking is not easy to find. You can park at Milan's garage though. The first few levels are for the supermarket only but a few levels up you can pay and park, $5 for the whole day.

    Miami Spice Menu 2025 (Dinner). The food was delicious! My personal favorites were the eel hand roll, the torched faroe islands salmon belly, and the mascarpone cheesecake. The Miami Spice menu is great because you get to try a little bit of everything, and I would definitely go back to try those three things in more quantity. The service was good! They had an attentive wait staff. We didn't make reservations, and they were still able to accommodate us. The place is cute! It's part of a new building. So, it has a fresh, open space aspect to it. There is limited parking. You either have to park on the street or in a residential parking garage. We risked parking in the Milam's parking garage (which is also a residential parking garage) since it was early enough (Saturday at 6:00 PM), but if you like the Metrorail, it is located right next to the Douglas station (Green Line).

    Five stars for the amazing and fresh fish and delicious meal! I placed an order for pick up and got really good BOGO deals that saved me a lot! When I arrived to the restaurant, I thought it was very cute and cozy. Where they fell short in earning five stars is in the service from the young lady who is in the front. She was working with those of us who had a pick up. She was unorganized and the people she was nice and respectful to was the guys who were picking up orders. I said good evening, and her response was what do you want? It was wild, but at the same time not surprising. Customer service is an essential part of my experience wherever I go. I would go back because the food was great. Be sure to check it out and I hope you have a better experience. Enjoy!

    Came here for Miami Spice and had a good time. Service was slow so I didn't need a reservation. I have to say the customer service was good and all the fish we had was vet fresh and flavorful. The band roll was amazing I wish i could have more. The tostada and crispy rice was amazing too everything was excellent and the presentation was beautiful.

    Was feeling FOMO over this place so I made my way to coral gables with my bf to give it a try. I attached a picture of our receipt with everything we ordered. For the price... the sushi was not it. Everything was quarter sized. Flavor was nonexistent. All 3 rolls we ordered tasted the same, mind you one of them was wagyu steak - literally tasted like a crab roll. Their chipotle ponzu sauce tasted like nickels (best way to describe it tbh). I attached a picture with 2 little pieces of sushi - one of them is the Canadian snow crab roll ($16) , the other one is the Spicy Canadian snow crab roll ($14). They advertise the Canadian snow crab roll has double the portion of snow crab for those who love snow crab however, both of these had the same portion lol..... and just overall, I'm disappointed. I'm only giving them 2 stars because the order was ready by the time I arrived, and they packed it correctly. That deserves 2 stars right? But the food, 0 stars.

    We ordered belly fish to go and it did not disappoint. Nicely put together and aesthetic to go presentation. We ordered spicy tuna crispy rice, salmon nigiri, scallop nigiri, spicy salmon and spicy tuna maki's. All were super fresh and traveled well. They also offered an assortment of sauces which enhanced the meal. My favorite being the smoky spicy soy. Would go again, good experience.

It's about not having the food that you ordered and were excited to receive.

The premium lunch came with miso soup and 9 small dishes in a beautiful bento box. Definitely aesthetically pleasing and I liked the variety. The udon soup was also great with chewy udon noodles, sweet savory soup, and tempura shrimp/veggies. Service was attentive and nice. Parking available via street parking or you can pay in nearby parking garages. I wouldn't bring a big party based on the limited seating arrangements inside. All in all good food.
