Ensui uni
Glenn F.

Best sushi we've had in Miami, and definitely merits the Michelin star. All fish is flown in from the Toyosu Market in Tokyo. Chef Seijun is friendly Every course of the omakase was memorable, and the creativity level is high. Standouts include the rainbow trout with konbu, onion, and ponzu jelly; the uni toast (ecstasy for uni lovers), the sushi selection (great amaebi and A5 Wagyu), negi toro hand roll (worth splurging for the caviar supplement), and miso with manila clam broth. They also have a solid sake selection. Make sure you get the code to enter in the back of the taco shop.

Absolutely outstanding! The best omakase I have had anywhere. Fresh fish, much of which is only seasonally available. The wine and sake pairings were perfect. I highly recommended Hiden!

Hiden is all about the details! Be prepared for a splurge night, but you will not regret it. From the moment you walk in, the staff is there to greet you with a friendly face. They even had me choose my own unique sake cup (also highly recommend to order the sake!) Each bite was crafted carefully, and with love. Almost everything is imported from Japan, and the chef makes everything right in front of you. I kept saying to myself - "now THIS is my favorite bite ...over and over and over again! It is quiet and intimate, yet I was able to have a conversation and did not feel like I was being too loud or that others can overhear what I was saying. I don't think they are overly priced, but expensive enough to prohibit me going again anytime soon. I wish them success and hope they continue to innovate. A Michelin star well deserved!

A clear, textured glass bowl contains oysters topped with a pale yellow creamy sauce and garnished with chopped green onions. The bowl is on a wooden table in a restaurant setting, with a glass of water, a champagne flute, and chopsticks visible in the background. The presentation suggests a fine dining experience focused on seafood.

Where do I start! such a unique experience. located in a speakeasy style at the back of The Taco Stand is this cute hidden sushi bar! With limited seating and reservation required, you have an intimate style dinner with about six others with the chef. A set course menu we tried a variety of fish. everything tasted as fresh as you could imagine! it was like artwork watching the chef put together each piece of sushi individually prepared for each person. My favorite was the firecracker shrimp and the Uni toast. We started off with complimentary champagne and also had the sake pairing with our Sushi which really elevated our experience. you also have the option to add on caviar to the handle which was definitely worth every penny. The servers, Mika and Luis were super attentive and knowledge, ensuring our servicers were full, and sharing information about each sake pairing. you are a sushi lover this is a must try place. you will not be disappointed.

Wow, what an experience! Still daydreaming about this food. The sushi was top notch. The beginning courses were also amazing-- a caviar bamboo mousse and wagyu with mushroom were my favs. The entire restaurant is basically one room, run by 4 people-- 2 chefs and 2 servers. There's just the sushi bar with 8 seats for 8 guests and one bathroom. This especially made the experience feel very exclusive and special. Not to mention, the staff were all welcoming and friendly. Loved it!

Hidden Omakase -- December 27, 2025 For a fleeting two hours, the outside world disappeared. At Hiden Omakase, we were transported, mentally and spiritually, to Japan, freed from the ordinary worries of life. Tucked discreetly within the vibrant energy of Miami, this intimate sanctuary is a rare gem, one that truly deserves to be written about. Every element of the experience is meticulously considered: the menu, the pacing, the service, and even the smallest details, right down to the Japanese-style bathroom, a subtle yet telling nod for anyone who has traveled to Japan. Nothing here is accidental. Chef Seijun Okano, who began his sushi journey at just 14 years old in Japan, brings decades of discipline, mastery, and quiet confidence to the counter. His experience flows effortlessly into each course, resulting in a meal that feels deeply intentional and perfectly curated. Every bite is exquisite, balanced, expressive, and flawlessly executed. Yes, the experience is a premium one, but so is a flight to Japan. The difference is that here, you achieve the same emotional and culinary transport without enduring a twelve-hour journey. What Hiden Omakase offers is not simply dinner; it is a spiritual and sensory experience, one that will stay with me for a lifetime. Having visited many omakase restaurants across the United States, I can say with certainty that Hidden stands apart. Chef Okano is warm, welcoming, and engaging, fostering effortless conversation as each course is prepared before your eyes. The service team operates with a quiet precision and grace reminiscent of Japan's finest establishments, seamless, attentive, and deeply respectful of the craft. Our deepest gratitude to Chef Seijun Okano; Yair Gaona; sommelier Mika Nasako; and the exceptional team, including Sai Lo and Luis De Jesus. Your dedication, discipline, and thoughtfulness were evident in every moment. This is Michelin-star caliber dining in both spirit and execution. Chef Okano, should you ever find yourself in Boston, it would be my honor to welcome you into my home for an omakase of my own. You will always be welcome. Thank you for the unforgettable experience, the meaningful conversations, and the remarkable cuisine. Course after course, the meal was constructed like a warm, exquisite home, brick by brick, memory by memory. From the bottom of our hearts: Arigatō gozaimasu.

Chef Okano and the sushi selection for the evening - A man with a shaved head and white shirt is smiling and holding a wooden box filled with various types of sushi, including sashimi, nigiri, and rolls. The setting appears to be a restaurant with wooden and metallic interior elements, and another person in the background is wearing glasses and a white chef's coat, facing away.

Hiden is an amazing experience for special occasion meals, or for a meal that becomes an occasion. Only 8 people are seated at each of 2 times: 6 and 9 pm. The restaurant is a speakeasy; you'll get a number code the day of your reservation and enter through an unmarked door at the back of a taco shop. Once inside, the space is intimate and the service is friendly. While this is an upscale experience ($300 for the omakase plus drinks), the service is incredibly friendly and welcoming. The chef encourages interaction and taking photos of your food is welcome. The service staff is also very helpful. The food was amazing. Each bite was delicious. On the night I visited, a major standout was the uni, which just melted as you ate it. We also had stone crab sushi, which was a first for me. Even the bathroom was appropriate for the experience with a heated seat. All around this was a great experience and I can't wait for an excuse to return.

Luxurious Omakase spot with excellent ingredients and execution. Hiden is hidden behind a secret door in the back of the Taco Stand. The space is intimate and the staff is professional. The "invisible hand" Michelin star level service is evident and sets Hiden apart from other counters. The uni toast was exquisite as was the black caviar vichyssoise. The cooked dishes were a weak point for me. For example, the Kinki fish served with a take on ratatouille and the Mushi Hamaguri clam were just okay. The nigiri course was beyond reproach. The seasoning and texture of the sushi rice was perfection. The temperature control for the fish was ideal as well - cold enough to stand out from the rice but not overly so where the flavor is muted. The wasabi here is the real deal and ground against shark skin counter side. The only total miss was the Wagyu Sukiyaki. Overall Hiden managed to create a special experience and showcase finesse at least when it comes to service and nigiri. I give it a Miami 5 but this would probably be a 4 in the NYC omakase scene especially at the hefty price point.

Like others mention, hiden is behind a secret door in the back of a taco restaurant. You have to input a code to get in, super cool and unsuspecting. So different compared to other omakase spots. Champagne and sake are served throughout the meal. I think there were 17 courses in total. My favorite was the uni toast. Super fresh uni on top of fluffy garlic Japanese bread, seriously one of the best things ever. I ordered a side of caviar as well to put on top of the uni. The toro was insane, melted in my mouth like butter. Honestly, everything I had was amazing and so fresh. The fish is flown in from Japan. Very high quality. It was such a beautiful experience. Waiters are attentive, the sushi chefs are kind and encourage you to eat the sushi right away with your hands (like they would do in Japan) Easy to say one of the best omakases in Miami, if not the best. Perfect for date night. There are only a few seats inside at the sushi bar so it is very intimate. Will be back!

Absolutely the very best Sushi experience and culinary expertise ever! There are no words to express the level of japanese delight and amazement you will have at Hiden. We were mesmerized by the grand entrance which was at the very back of a bustling taco joint where we had to dodge the crowd through tables and people to get to the hidden door with a discreet keypad beside it. At the door you input the four digit secret code which magically opens up into the decadently private sushi kitchen table where you will be graciously greeted by your very own hosts. The food is the main attraction and the chefs make the whole experience more inviting with charm and big smiles galore. This is the best japanese cuisine in the whole world in my opinion. The caviar and any other add-ons are a must try as at the end you are generously offered any extra dishes of what you may have liked at a lower price point. I would recommend you order as many as you like, since you will get seconds of the best your tastebuds will Thank You later! The pics may not depict what your mouth will experience, it is no doubt a must try, please do yourself a favor and visit Hiden for the very best Omakase journey ever!

The dream team in action
Aleksandra C.

We absolutely loved the experience - intimate and ability to interact with the chef and Sous makes this very special. Everything was exceptional and melted in your mouth. I specifically loved the chef instructions on how to eat the various pieces and answering the various questions. On tidbit to note is that the place is inside of the taco stand which the email doesn't clearly state plus we didn't know that you needed a code that is only valid for 15' past your reservation time which added unnecessary stress and should be clearly stated on their website. Once you overcome the initial hurdle of finding the place everything was top notch but did come at a hefty price tag. The champagne selection also started at $250 which is on the steep end even for Miami. Definitely something worth trying but for the $$$$ we still prefer cote.

Hiden, is it a play on being hidden inside a taco restaurant? It could be. I didn't inquire, but I'm thinking it's likely. Now, Hiden is not for the weak of wallet, but it's worth every penny. Service is impeccable, Chef Okano is personable and actively explains every dish. I had the caviar supplement on the Toro Taku Handroll, which I recommend. Service started out with an included glass of Robert Moncton champagne and the amuse bouche, Kaluga Queen caviar on a corn mousse. Fantastic! Highlights are the truffle salt on the Uni Toast, making stand out from so many uni toast variants out there, the Mizayaki Wagyu which was melt in your mouth, the Shiroika, and the cold Hiyashi Chawanmushi, my first with a cold chawanmushi. The sommelier recommended a perfect nihonshu for the evening, Ohmine, probably the least stereotypical sake finish ever. A fantastic evening of delicious food. Highly recommended.

Veronica P.

Had a fantastic experience here after a long wait to get a reservation! The employees put such care into making this a unique experience for all. From the sommelier, to the server, the chef, and the sous chef, everyone contributed positively to the experience in their own way. The fish was the freshest I've had in a while. Each dish was constructed with care and they made sure the flavors were unique and complemented well with each other. I highly recommend the experience. The wine pairing was a nice touch, but I dont think that was worth the cost (same price as dinner). The pairings were tasty, but it was honestly too much alcohol for a dinner (and i can drink!).

See all

How can I make a reservation?

I would recommend going to the website. You have to choose some preferred dates and go on a waiting list and when they have something available they will reach out to you via email.

How much is it?

$200/person. Pairings/Drunks are extra. Wine is expensive as the meal itself.

Very warm, serene vibe with neutral tones. Definitely the kind of place you'd come to unwind and just enjoy good sushi without any chaos. Parking: Street parking is available, but it is paid, so keep that in mind before pulling up. The servers were very helpful and kind overall. My only complaint is that food came out a bit slow, especially considering it wasn't very busy at the time. Like serve me all my orders all at once pleaseeeeee so I can indulge lol What I Had: _________________ Sashimi Assortment - 10/10 Freaking delicious. Light, decadent, and incredibly fresh. Each piece tasted clean and high-quality, the kind of sashimi that melts the second it hits your mouth. They did their thing! Kanpachi Sashimi - 10/10 So good. Soft, delicate, and perfectly fresh. Every bite was balanced and flavorful without being heavy at all. Nigiri - White Fish Tasting - 11/10 Hands down my favorite part of my experience. I ordered multiple rounds (they come two per order), including branzino and snapper. The branzino was unreal. I wanted only branzino... that is how marvelous it was. Topped with this umami crunch that added so much texture and flavor. It was literally mouthwatering, like a burst of flavor in every bite. I honestly could've kept ordering this all night. Nigiri - Bluefin Tuna Tasting - 5/10 This one just wasn't for me. It wasn't fishy, but the texture was very slimy and didn't sit well in my mouth. It didn't swallow smoothly and just wasn't appetizing to me personally. Definitely a pass. Blue Crab Hand Roll - 6.5/10 I know this is a fan favorite, but it was just okay for me. Not bad at all, just didn't wow me compared to everything else I had. For $6, it's fine, but I wouldn't rush to reorder it. Customer Service: 8.5/10 Friendly and helpful, just slightly slow. Overall Experience: 9/10 Will I Be Back? Yes, absolutely. This establishment has been TAMIED™

There is a small ramp leading you up to the restaurant which can be easily missed if you don't know what to look for. I had made reservations earlier in the day through Open Table and had to wait a short while to be seated. I had indicated in the reservation that we were coming to celebrate a birthday but none of the staff acknowledged this. The restaurant was busy but not too loud. Despite hearing a lot about the ambiance, I did not think the decor was anything out of this world. Given that this was our first time at the restaurant, we took our time looking over the menu. I felt that the waitress was a bit impatient and wanted us to make up our minds. She never offered any suggestions and when we told her we needed a minute she took that literally and did not seem happy we needed more than the additional 60 seconds she provided. We ordered the crispy rice (2 pieces tuna and 2 pieces salmon), the classic ceviche, Paper Tuna roll, Salmon Furai roll, Spicy Tuna roll, and Hamachi Jalapeño roll. I had indicated to the waitress that we wanted the crispy rice and ceviche to start with the rolls brought afterwards, but the sushi came out before anything else. She then brought out the wrong ceviche and the proper order was not brought out until the end of our meal. Despite these mishaps, the table agreed that the food was good. We felt that the ceviche was a bit small but this may have been due to the kitchen rushing the order out. While the sushi was tasty, there are plenty of other sushi spots around Miami that offer similar rolls. Towards the end of our meal, we secretly asked our waitress to bring out a dessert as a surprise to the birthday guest. She then proceeded to clear the table, bring out spoons, and announce that the dessert would be out shortly. Overall, I would not come here to celebrate a special occasion. The service was disappointing and while the food was good, there wasn't anything unique that would justify coming out to Brickell to eat here again.

You can access the mall area from the left of the hotel lobby. What impressed me most was the presentation of all the dishes. They really took great care to make everything look beautiful.

I truly appreciate when servers know their menu well and are able to make suggestions. I can't remember my server's name, but she was just top-notch. We ordered: - Miso soup, (served in a charming, Japanese chawan mushi cup) the flavor was really good and strong. (I hate it when it's weak) - Spicy dumplings. They tasted homemade. Yummy - Shrimp shu mai, good, tasted as it should - Tanaka roll, with extra crispies on top, (I was not a fan because I did not expect it to be deep-fried. if it had not been deep-fried, I would've liked it.) - Peking duck served in an impressive three tier tower that looks like a round Chinese Temple. - Pork Belly Bao bun, this was also a miss for me because I expected it to taste like barbecue, but it was just really salty like they used a lot of brown salty sauce. All in all, I really enjoyed this restaurant, even though I didn't like those two items. Bec But, because of the excellent service, the atmosphere and the beautiful way they served the food, I decided to leave them a five star review. Those dishes weren't bad they just weren't what I expected. We don't live in the area so if we were to stay in this hotel again, we would definitely dine here again.
