Our waitress gave us great recommendations so definitely trust them on that! Regarding the food, very similar comments will follow. We did the $35 set 3-course, as well as just ordering off the menu. The truffle edamame were delicious with a wonderful truffle flavor (maybe a little less oil next time). The rosa roll, however, truly stole the show. With 6 pieces, it was easy to share with one other person and was amazing. The combination of flavors is genius. With entrees, we ordered a Miami Roll and Sakura Roll, both of which didn't disappoint. The star of the show has to be the passion fruit mousse. It was the perfect sweet treat to end off the meal.

The main course was interesting, but I don't think that I would have it again. I am glad that I tried it though, as I like to try new dishes and cuisines. I was disappointed in the dessert. The Miami spice menu offered a few desserts, yet most of them were unavailable! I am also not a fan of desserts put into jam jars. It lacks imagination and looks too generic. The service was also efficient but lacked warmth from my female server.

I ordered the hibachi steak with fried rice, specifically asking for the rice extra crispy. I even reminded the waitress because I had a feeling it wouldn't come out that way. Sure enough, when it arrived, the rice wasn't crispy at all... just like the regular side I've had before. They took it back, and there I was waiting longer for my food. Then things took a turn. On one of my last bites of the fried rice, something literally poked my mouth. When I pulled it out, it was a long, thin wooden stick! almost like a toothpick, but not exactly. A wooden stick in my food? That instantly made me uncomfortable. What felt completely intentional due to the previous request, had me fearing for my safety! At that point, I just lost my appetite completely. I didn't even bother saying anything because I honestly didn't feel at ease anymore. I will NOT be returning.

great Venezuelan fusion restaurant!…read more They have amazing lunch specials from $5-15 so there is something for everyone's price range. The restaurant serves tequenos, burgers, sushi rolls, and has a bit of a peruvian twist. The service is wonderful and the location is always clean. I enjoy coming here for my lunch break. their Lomo Saltado is my favorite! The flavors are on point and this is a dish that i order frequently. Their steak fried rice is also spectacular. Many customers also enjoy their sushi's and I can see why now. Even their volcano roll was spot on! By the way the portions are pleasing and any dish you order will fill you up! Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed!

They went over the food and drink menu and gave us time to think about it. We ended up ordering the chef experience with a couple of add ons, while pairing it with a bottle of Sake which was served in this interesting decanter/chiller which had us very entertained the whole time there. The chef experience comes out in different phases and each time it was served to us they were able to identified the type of fish being served. We thoroughly enjoyed what was served and we were impressed by the quality of the fish. The restaurant is not big, but it does have seating for one large group in the back. The restaurant is tastefully decorated, it isn't boring but also not overwhelming. There is plenty of free parking. Overall, we were impressed and definitely we will be coming back.

It was a party in my mouth. The strawberry sandwich is not too sweet, it's the perfect level of sweetness. The strawberries give it a nice tartness. Would definitely order it again.

We would not order it again. The egg sandwich was bland and we would not order it again. I wish they had funaguchi sake here. Cute ambience inside.

Only plate that we had a suggestion for was the fish that was cut into very thick slices.

The service was the bare minimum of hi, how are you, what do you want, and here you go. No pizzazz or anything memorable. Then the food. The food? Meh. I had actually arrived thinking that there was a happy hour or an all you can eat option, but neither existed, even after I researched online extensively, so that was a huge disappointment. I had to search hard to find rolls that weren't laid full of cream cheese, which, to me, essentially means "here is a roll with cream cheese to mask all of the icks flavors of the subpar fish that we are actually serving you and do not want you to be aware!" I ordered some nigiri, which tasted old, not fresh and on rice not treated correctly. Need I remind the YELP! Community??? Sushi is actually referring to the treatment of the sushi RICE and NOT the fish or ingredients on the nigiri or roll! So in this sense, Miyako Doral FAILED. I will admit, that this was one of the first sushi places that I had gone to when I first moved to Miami, not knowing the abysmal notion of what sushi is interpreted to mean here in south Florida. YUCK. Thank you for letting me know. SUSHI HERE SUCKS! Unless you want to pay an arm and a leg for true, pure and traditional types like at Omakai, ELYU or Shingo. Just. YUCK. I am from MN, a land locked state, and yet I know better sushi than the majority of locals here in SoFlo. I am really, and truly sorry for those of you who think good sushi means "cream cheese cream cheese cream cheese!"

Shortly after the issue with my order, the manager, Andrea, personally reached out to me regarding the mistake. She was incredibly kind, understanding, and genuinely committed to making things right. Even though a few days had passed, she made sure my order was remade correctly and went above and beyond to resolve the situation. When I returned to pick up my order, the staff apologized again for the miscommunication, and everything was prepared exactly as requested. I was very satisfied with both the food and the customer service. Mistakes can happen anywhere, but what truly matters is how a business responds when they do. Andrea and her team handled the situation professionally and with great care, which meant a lot to me. Sokai Sushi Bar has been one of my go-to spots in Doral for a long time, and this experience only reinforced why. Thank you to Andrea and the team for making things right and for valuing your customers. I will definitely continue coming back.

DISGUSTING. I have had sushi in more than 25 states and have to say that this place delivered a…read morefirst: completely uncooked rice. I chipped a tooth on several grains before I realized that it was not cooked. They were hard as rock! Furthermore, the nigiri pieces were sooo thin that they started to break apart and could easily see the rice (uncooked) through the piece of "nigiri." Paper thin. Nigiri should NOT be paper thin. Also, I received saba (makeral) instead of hamachi, and hamachi is more expensive. They refused to switch it without charging me and did not take out the difference in cost between saba and hamachi. Lastly, the chu toro wasn't just paperthin - it was shredded to pieces. I tried to remove JUST the fish since the rice wasn't cooked and the fish fell into pieces. I tried some of the fish and it tasted spoiled and mushy. Think disintegrated. I hope I don't get sick. And I paid $30 for this trash!

I usually approach fusion restaurants with a healthy amount of skepticism. Too often, they feel…read morelike culinary speed dating, two cuisines forced together in the hope that chemistry magically appears. More often than not, one side dominates, the other disappears, and everybody loses. At Amazonia, a Japanese-Peruvian restaurant in Miami, that fear evaporates somewhere around the first bite. The opening argument came in the form of Gyoza Huancaína, pan-fried dumplings stuffed with lomo saltado and served with a vivid yellow huancaína sauce. It is the kind of dish that sounds gimmicky when described aloud. Then you eat it. The dumplings delivered deep savory notes from the beef, while the creamy sauce added brightness, spice, and richness. It felt less like a fusion experiment and more like a dish that had always existed. Four dumplings arrived on the plate. Four was not enough. My entrée, the Midori Risotto, continued the conversation between Japan and Peru. A strikingly green risotto made with kale and edamame arrived topped with grilled shrimp, microgreens, and dots of black garlic aioli. The rice was cooked properly, retaining a slight bite, while the edamame added texture and sweetness. The shrimp brought balance to the richness, and the black garlic aioli quietly tied everything together. It was a dish that managed to be both comforting and elegant. To drink, I ordered the Nikkei Lemonade, a blend of yuzu, Peruvian ginger, and huacatay. Bright, citrusy, and refreshing, it reset the palate after each bite and served as a reminder that the fusion extends beyond the food. My wife chose the braised short rib, a dish for diners who may not be ready to take the full leap into the restaurant's more adventurous offerings. Braised for 72 hours and served over mashed potatoes, it collapsed under the gentlest pressure from a fork. The beef was intensely flavorful, and the braising liquid was rich enough to make you consider asking for a spoon. Dessert brought one final East-meets-West moment. The Flan Nikkei paired a silky custard with miso caramel, whipped cream, and fresh strawberry. The miso added just enough savory depth to keep the sweetness from becoming predictable. It was a thoughtful ending to a meal built on thoughtful combinations. Amazonia succeeds because it understands something many fusion restaurants do not. Combining cuisines is not about piling flavors on top of one another. It is about finding where they naturally intersect. Here, Japanese precision and Peruvian boldness meet in the middle, and both emerge better for it. Fusion rarely wins me over, but Amazonia makes a compelling case for keeping an open mind.

My niece and I decided to try this restaurant on a whim. I'm so glad we did because the service and…read morefood was phenomenal!! Our server Claudia was so nice and helpful with explaining the different dishes. You also are treated to a complimentary mocktail and sweet yam bite to start. Claudia even provided us a tablet to see the pictures of the various dishes offered which helped us decide what to try. We started off with a mocktail that had coconut, passion fruit, hibiscus tea and pineapple. That drink was delicious and I didn't miss the alcohol. For starters we had the salmon crispy rice and that was so filling and delicious. Then we had the scallops in the black truffle sauce which was perfect a seared to perfection. We also ordered the kumogani roll which is crab based and that was very tasty with or without soy sauce. We loved everything we tried and will definitely go back to try other items on the menu. I highly recommend trying them out if you're in the area.
