we came here to celebrate a girlfriend's birthday and the food did not disappoint!! we devoured each and every roll and i have to really say - the flavors and subtle changes in the different rolls were very balanced and delicious. i typically order sashimi but these rolls could make me a roll convert! :P the ambience and space is dark and moody with very tasteful lighting. as a foodie who likes to try new places, it is always a big compliment to want to try a space multiple times - i will most definitely be back! read more

Wow, what happened to this place? My wife and I came here about 8 months ago and it was absolutely magical..every dish felt like an explosion of flavor. We came back for our anniversary expecting the same experience and unfortunately left very underwhelmed. We ordered the Wagyu carpaccio again and it was nowhere near as good as we remembered. It seemed to be missing some of the aioli or something that previously brought the dish together. We also had a yellowtail roll and an eel roll, and both were extremely skinny and lacked that "wow" flavor. Last time, we had a torch-seared Wagyu-topped roll that was so good we literally paused between bites just to savor it. Service was phenomenal as always, and the ambiance is beautiful. However, by 10:30 they were already clearing tables and cleaning up the bar even though they close at 11. It made us feel like the restaurant was already closed. Really disappointing because our first visit was worth every penny. This time felt like a completely different experience, and unfortunately I'm not sure we'll be back. read more

Kabooki Sushi - Japanese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Kabooki is one of my favorite sushi restaurants in Orlando. I had a very busy week at work, so I felt like splurging on the magical dining promotion. I booked through Resy for a 7:30 reservation, but came quite early around 6:45. Thankfully, they were still able to seat me at the sushi bar. I had to go with the usual old fashioned for my drink (16 dollars). It was a generous pour, and just had the right amount of strength to let me bob my head to the dancing lounge music. For my appetizer, I tried the tuna crudo. It was expertly prepared, and the tuna was quite fresh. I did enjoy the toppings and sauces too, but wish the sauce had a bit more flavor. For my entree, the Kasai don had various of different fish that was nicely presented. All the fish were fresh enough, but I was expecting the melt in your mouth tenderness from the fish, and the umami from the rice. While it was still good, it just didn't have the vibe from the previous years. I was expecting the quality to be close to Kadance or Juju, but it was more equivalent to Seito or Dragonfly. It was however, generous in portions, in which I was a bit too stuffed to finish the rice. For dessert, I wanted to do the chocolate lava cake, but I thought it would be too heavy for me. So instead, I took the green tea creme brulee. It was much lighter and had the right amount of earthy flavor. It also has various fruits to enjoy too. The service was good and professional. My server was prompt and I saw lots of people cleaning up and clearing plates. The sushi chefs were very busy, so I didn't see any of them engaging with the customers. The vibe is still upscale and the music makes the beat control my body. Parking was thankfully easy, but free valet was available too. The cost of the magical dining increased to 60 dollars for this restaurant, so it was definitely a splurge. While the quantity matches the cost, I wish the sushi fish melted in my mouth and had ninjas riding on my taste buds. I guess I was just in more stubborn mood and my expectations set too high. It was still an enjoyable dinner, and I am definitely coming again. And I am so happy that they participate in Resy benefits with my credit card, so American Express took care with almost half of the costs. Next time, I may splurge more with the omakase options, and maybe my taste buds will ride off to bliss. Overall: B+ (still a good and fun restaurant). read more

Chef Daily Special presents - The J Roll (seasonal): Tuna & avocado,topped w/ torched salmon & truffle crema. It was deliciously savory. Basically a spin of the LV Makimono sushi roll. You can enjoy this portion for $25 but don't expect to be filled. Great place for an intimate dinner. It was not so busy before 6 then suddenly picked up and bartender provided attentive service. read more

WOW. Very delicious elevated food. The Karaage was unlike any I've had before, a curry ketchup sauce with insanely crunchy breading. The Toro Carpaccio was one of the best raw tuna prepared dishes I've ever had and I wanted to dip all the rest of the other pieces of nigiri and sushi we ordered in the truffle sauce. The service was great and very fast. The ambiance is moody upscale, dim lights and an intimate atmosphere. These were some of the best pieces of nigiri and sushi I've had. The wagyu flight was fun and got to cook the pieces of meat on a hot stone. read more

Kabooki sushi is without a doubt one of my favorite sushi spots in Orlando! The restaurant has such a cool vibe. The lighting is warm, the décor is modern, and the whole place feels alive. Definitely the kind of spot where you want to sit, sip, and stay awhile. The service is superb and the staff are very knowledgeable of the food and drinks served there. We sampled a little bit of everything, from the dishes to the cocktails, and loved it all. The garlic teriyaki edamame was the surprise favorite of the night -- seriously, don't skip it. If you're anywhere near Sand Lake and want good food and good drinks, Kabooki should be on your list. read more

This was our second visit to a Kabooki Sushi and once again, it was great. I recommend this place for high-quality sushi and cocktails in a fairly swanky environment. This review is for the Sand Lake location, which opened in May 2019. It's located closer to the resorts and theme parks. Kabooki Sushi's original location, East Colonial, is located in Northeast Orlando and opened in April 2013. Below is a list of what my wife and I ordered at this location. We shared the Brussels Sprouts, Shishito Peppers, and Money Bags with others at the table (group dinner). Kabooki Cocktails * The Jessica Rabbit ($15) - Grey Goose Vodka, St-Germain, honeydew, lime, orgeat topped with soda * Kabooki Margarita ($14) - Corazon Tequila, yuzu, lime, agave Chef's Daily Choices - Cold Tastings * Toro Carpaccio ($30) - chutoro, dry-aged 8 days; truffle caviar, wasabi cream, truffle ponzu, pickled sambal * Tiger Cream ($25) - king salmon, dry-aged 5 days; chizu, berry jam, yuzu creme fraiche, basil oil Chef's Daily Choices - Nigiri * Bluefin Chutoro x2 ($9 per piece) - dry-aged 8 days, semi-fatty tuna * Bluefin Otoro x2 ($11 per piece) - dry-aged 8 days, fatty tuna belly Greens & Soup * Brussels Sprouts ($8) - peach balsamic, togarashi * Shishito Peppers ($9) - lion head pepper, umami soy, bonito flakes * Moriwase Nigiri ($55) - chef's assortment of "daily catches," including individual toppings and condiments, served with house-infused tamari and wasabi Hot Tastings * Money Bags ($18) - Duxelle dumplings, shiitake crema, truffle pate Makimono (Rolls) * Akami Unagi ($19) - spicy tuna, tempura kampyo topped with eel and avocado, kabayaki, furikake, kaiware * Double Tekka ($21) - spicy tuna, takuan, ohba, topped with tuna, house-infused tamari, kizami wasabi * Hokkaido ($19) - lump crab, tempura flakes, avocado, tobanjan aioli, topped with scallops, black garlic, orange chili sauce The food and drink were presented beautifully. The cocktails were well-made and delicious. Foodwise, I thought almost everything was excellent, especially the nigiri (top-notch). The only items I could've done without were the Brussels Sprouts and the Shishito Peppers. I thought the Brussels Sprouts were too salty, but my wife disagreed (she liked them). The Shishito Peppers weren't bad, just okay. I thoroughly enjoyed the Moriwase Nigiri. Here's what mine came with, served on a wooden sushi board: - Madai - dry-aged 3 days; sea bream from Ehime - Kanpachi - dry-aged 3 days; amberjack from Wakayama - Bluefin Akami - dry-aged 8 days; lean tuna - Hamachi Toro - yellowtail belly -- I didn't see this one on any of the menus - King Sake - king salmon -- I didn't see this on the menus either and I'm not sure if it's the same as their regular sake/salmon - Hokkaidako - giant octopus from Hokkaido - Shima Aji - dry-aged 4 days; striped jack from Kumamoto - Madai - dry-aged 3 days; sea bream from Ehime - Suzuki - black bass from Miyagi - Isaki - threeline grunt from Nagasaki I've been to a lot of sushi restaurants and Kabooki Sushi is the only one I can think of, off the top of my head, to list the number of days that their sushi has been dry-aged. Interesting. The Moriwase Nigiri came with a special toasted soy sauce infused with bonito, mirin, and another ingredient our server said that I couldn't hear clearly. It's a little more smoky and concentrated. I think this is what Kabooki described on their menu as tamari. You can think of it as a premium soy sauce. The crowd noise and music in the dining room was loud and sometimes made it a bit hard to converse at the table. Our server was Troy P and he did a good job. Thanks to the male Thai server who took our pictures outside. Reservations are recommended. This place is popular. Kabooki Sushi is on Resy. We had a Saturday night 7:30pm reservation for seven people. It was busy. The restaurant was flexible when we needed to add one to the reservation and push the time back, so that was nice.

One of the highlights of our trio to Orlando. This was an AWESOME sushi spot. Service was also awesome! Our server was super attentive and always ensured our cups were refilled without having to ask. Ambiance was nice and felt very welcoming. The restaurant was fairly busy for a weekday. We loved every dish we ordered and look forward to trying it out again the next time we are in town... read more

This was my first time at Kabooki, and definitely see the hype! The restaurant has a high quality ambiance with moody lighting a that gives an upscale feel. I was mostly there for a little app and drink, and the bee my honey didn't disappoint! It was right up my alley with the floral and honey flavors and was balanced well. The garlic teriyaki edamame was hard to stop eating! The flavor really upleveled the edamame. I also got the gyoza, which had shrimp in it and had a really nice flavor profile! My friends enjoyed some sushi rolls, and everything was well liked. Service was good - I didn't feel like we were pushed to order more drinks or food, but we could have been checked on a couple more times. Overall, a good experience with high quality food! read more

Tucked away in the corner of a strip mall... was craving sushi and heard good reviews of this place. Ambiance wise feels like a club with loud music such that the servers had trouble hearing our orders... they seemed kind of slow for refilling water or giving us utensils like fork/spoon but it was pretty busy The nigiri itself including the sushi mariawase was disappointing since the slices were so small and the pieces themselves tasted average... CA and Japan has much better places. However, udon, ribs, sweet shrimp, and some of the rolls were decent enough. In particular, ribs were amazing! read more

Kabooki Sushi $40 Magical Dining is actually MAGICAL. TLDR: get the carpaccio and sticky ribs! Easy parking in the plaza, was greeted as soon as we walked in, sat down promptly. We had a very wobbly table and they fixed that immediately. Ambiance lighting is nice but definitely a bit dim to see the menus properly. We did ask for the MD menus after not receiving it with all the other menus. Server and host were very, very nice. Food and drinks for two people: Espresso martini, it's flippin bananas First course: wagyu carpaccio Main course: two makimono (ghost roll and booki booki), Berkwood St. Louis style sticky ribs 3 course: C4 and Tiramisu Even without MD, everyone needs to try the Kabooki carpaccio and sticky ribs. These two items are the most perfect dishes I have ever eaten in central Florida...so far. The balance, amount, and flavor profile is amazing. We could've eaten 4 plates of the carpaccio, with no entree and dessert and have been satisfied...then the sticky ribs got to the table. The BEST ribs I have ever had. Fall off the bone, you really don't even need to chew. Drinks were great! and strong The so-so: we were told there's an anniversary surprise at the end of the meal and never got it. The tiramisu was insanely bitter in some bites. Insanely bitter. I like matcha but something was off in it. Took the tiramisu to-go so felt like it was still a 5 star experience at the restaurant. Timing of the courses was a bit off. Got the second course before even halfway done with the first. Would def come back to Kabooki. read more

Today's visit consisted of great food per usual. We arrived promptly at 5pm with no reservations...not a problem because the restaurant was not crowded yet. The vibe was quiet with the occasional sounds of small talk, silverware and plates. My son and I shared the Tonkotsu Ramen which was delicious, filling, rich in flavor and seasoned perfectly. I did add some Sriracha sauce to give it some heat though. Please note I think they only serve ramen on Sundays. We also ordered a Ghost roll and Garlic Teriyaki Edamame which is hands down the best edamame I've had in Orlando. The Sun Kissed Bliss drinks paired well with our food selections. Hit us for about $70. Not bad at all as the serving sizes and the quality of the food made it worth it. read more

Ordered: Lychee Princess cocktail (~$15): Cathead Honeysuckle Vodka, Aperol, Giffard Lychee, Lemon Tempura (~$15): seasonal vegetables and tempura sauce Toro Carpaccio (~$30): chutoro dry-aged 8 days, truffle caviar, wasabi cream, truffle ponzu, pickled sambal Hamachi Carpaccio (~$22): Japanese yellowtail, yuzu tobiko, ponzu, kaffir lime oil, yuzu kosho, serrano peppers Nigiri Moriawase (~$55): chef's assorted of daily catches, including individual toppings and condiments, served with house infused tamari & wasabi The J Roll (~$21): bubu arare tuna, avocado, serrano, topped with torched salmon, truffle cream and sweet chili Hawaii XO Roll (~$18): yellowtail, avocado, tobanjan aioli, crispy shallots, topped with white fish, lemon confit, kaiware, pink salt Rock Shrimp (~$16): with tobanjan aioli, chives, yuzu tartar Nabe w Short Rib (~$35): furikake rice, bonito flakes, shiitake garlic chips, egg yolk, soy dashi with short rib Matcha Tiramisu (~$14): ladyfinger biscuits soaked in matcha, matcha mascarpone cheese, matcha powder C4 (~$12): chocolate lava cake with dulce de leche. vanilla ice cream, chocolate ganache sauce Aya's take: Kabooki Sushi needs no introduction considering it's on the Michelin Good Cooking list. The ambiance is chic, sexy, and dark. It's a perfect spot for a girls night or even a date. I started with the Lychee Princess which was light, not overly sweet, and nice to sip on with our dinner. As far as appetizers, the Toro Carpaccio was outstanding! The chutoro was fresh & buttery, the truffle ponzu & truffle caviar was insanely rich, and the wasabi cream had a subtle kick. All the other food items were well-made with the standouts being The J Roll and Rock Shrimp. If you're looking for something more classic then get the Nigiri Moriawase. The quality of the fish is fantastic and the assortment you get is perfect for a solo or shared experience. We ended with 2 desserts which were decent with the C4 being the clear winner here. It was soft, decadent, and well-balanced with the vanilla ice cream. The Matcha Tiramisu was a bit of a let down as the flavor of matcha was lacking. I can clearly see the matcha powder but the taste was lacking. Overall, it was an enjoyable dinner experience! If you're in the Orlando area, make a reservation and your way over here! read more

I've ordered kabuki sushi many times. During the Covid years, this was one of my go to, to go restaurants. As soon as I could go in person I did and I have taken many friends since then. If you go on a Sunday, you are in for a treat. There is a Ramen special. You have to ask about to get the menu. It is some of the best Ramen you will ever have. The service is always outstanding. The ambience is low light not noisy. It's a good place to catch up with friends and have a conversation and share some amazing food. This sushi is so good. I dare you to eat it without soy sauce or wasabi. The shishito peppers are so good that they will go quickly. A5 steak on a hot rock, exactly as amazing as you would expect! Make sure to book your reservation on the website, and don't miss out on this local gem! read more

Came to Kabooki after work for happy hour and this place HIT THE SPOT. Awesome vibe with a full bar and sushi bar seating that you wouldn't expect from a strip mall restaurant. The staff was super attentive and checked on us continuously. The food was superb. First the sushi... this isn't your typical sushi roll place, Kabooki is inventive with their sushi. We had the Hawaii role with the freshest fish and lemon confit. We also had the Hamachi Carpaccio, sticky ribs, and shishito peppers. Do not skip the sticky ribs... they are fall off the bone, crispy, and so favorable. Happy Hour had cocktails for $12. read more

Sashimi was definitely better quality and the Shishito peppers were the best I've had so far. Hokkaido roll was good but not impressive. Nicely lit bar however, dim at table areas. Music got drown out once the place got packed and it was hard to have a conversation. Service was good but could have been better, had the request for an empty appetizer bowl to be removed from the small table and I'm guessing he forgot my request for lemon on the water. However our water glassess were filled without asking. Wish I could give a 4.5 experience was just not quite a 5. read more

First time at this location, i've been to the e colonial one once before! The customer service was fantastic, from the greeter, to the server who changed my cocktail when I didn't like it very much, to the man who came to fix our wobbly table. Everyone was professional and polite. The food is ALWAYS great. We had the money bags appetizer which came with 4 dumplings, the zen roll, and the bluefin sashimi (which is pricey but worth it) ! I didn't like the jessica rabbit very much, I felt adventurous in trying Pandan in my drink but it was not very good in my opinion so I opted for the Lychee cocktail which was great, very floral!

If you are an AMEX Platinum member, this is an excellent place to use your quarterly Resy credit, though I would gladly come here without it. I sat at the sushi bar and had a front-row seat to the chefs' mastery, knowledge, and attention to detail. The service was warm, professional, and attentive throughout the meal. Standout dishes included the Ama Ebi, easily the best I have had outside of Japan, the O-Toro tasting, which was rich and beautifully balanced, and the Wagyu A5 stone grill, which was indulgent and perfectly executed. Dessert was a pleasant surprise. The carrot cake with ginger ice cream was one of the best desserts I have had at a Japanese restaurant and a refreshing change from the usual mochi. Great ambiance and a true five-star experience overall. Kabooki Sushi is highly recommended. read more

This is probably my 3rd or 4th visit to this specific Kabooki location in the Sandlake restaurant row area! They recently renovated the location and the new layout looks great! The bar has been expanded and seating appears more streamlined! We made reservations and arrived right on time on a Saturday! We were quickly seated and started off with a bottle of a French Rose' which was flavorful! We tried the fried chicken bites and some fresh tasting sashimi for appetizer! Both tasted fresh and delicious (the chicken was fairly substantial for an appetizer). For main courses, we selected a sashimi dish along with some rolls and both dishes were very delicious! The dessert was chocolate lava cake with ice cream and everything tasted great! The restaurant was busy and had a fun ambiance!

I am a huge fan of the Kabooki location on Colonial so I was excited to check out the one on Sand Lake, and it did not disappoint! We came for the Valentine's Day pre-fixe tasting menu so we got to try a variety of dishes. My favorites were the Wagyu Sando which was cooked to perfection and the Otoro Tartare Monsonori offered incredible flavor with each bite. The ambiance is chic and modern and the service was great despite it being a full house on a holiday. We tried the Matcha Espresso Martini which tasted like a Christmasy cocktail to me but loved it as well. I appreciated not feeling rushed and enjoying a special occasion meal in a lovely setting. read more

The food was good but the sushi rolls were tiny . Waiter was nice , very nice aesthetics inside

My mom and my sister had been raving about this place for months, so of course when I came back to town, they took me here (back in May--sorry for the late review!). The atmosphere is trendy and upscale. The interior is very elegant and modern and feels like this restaurant would be situated in NYC or LA. Don't let the exterior fool you. Additionally, the service is top notch. I regretfully do not remember our waiter's name, but he himself was very memorable. Despite his youth, he seemed to have the knowledge, pride in work, and experience of a well seasoned high end waiter. He was positive, energetic, attentive, and friendly, and gave us great suggestions. I went with the pocket pear cocktail for my drink, upon his suggestion. Even my mother who never orders cocktails because of their stereotypical sweetness absolutely loved it. It was delicious, and I imagine that it will somehow be even better in autumn. It tasted like a crisp fall day. For our food, we shared Hamachi Carpaccio (cold tasting), Yuca fritters (hot), an LV roll, and an Akami Unagi roll. For dessert, we finished every last bite of the "C-4." Everything was incredible, in both taste and presentation! I can't even put it to words. The high prices are worth it. I look forward to making this a staple restaurant to visit whenever I am back in town. Thank you! read more

Interesting food and wonderful service really impressed my out of town guests. This restaurant was packed at nine o'clock on a week night so reservations are recommended. The decor and hostess makes you feel like you are stepping into a chic restaurant. The atmosphere is a little dark with smokey amber lights. Comfortable booths and tables. My cousin forgot her reading glasses and had trouble reading the menu, but I think this would be a really good date night spot. What really stood out was the starters: miso soup, nice salad and really tasty garlic teriyaki edamame. We ordered rolls LV (lump crab, tempura flakes, asparagus, orange chili sauce topped with torched wagyu, shiitake crema,) Tom Yum (panko shrimp , avocado, topped with torched salmon, tomyum aioli, thai chili flakes, micro cilantro, lemon wedge) and California rolls. The Tom Yum was good but the LV did not quite deliver to its $25 price tag. The dessert my cousin selected the C-4 (chocolate lava cake with dulce de leche, vanilla ice cream, chocolate ganache sauce) was spectacular. I said I didn't want any sweets so we agreed to share but after the first bite there was no stopping me. We probably should each have ordered our own. This meal service was a comfortable pace and our server was friendly and even though all the tables were full we never felt rushed. I definitely look forward to going back and getting the garlic teriyaki edamame and dessert. read more

Kabooki Sushi - C-4 dessert: chocolate lava cake with dulce de leche, vanilla ice cream, chocolate ganache sauce - Japanese Near Me - Orlando, Florida

WOW!!! From the moment we walked in and being greeted by the hostess thru the entire meal - TOP NOTCH! I ordered the shrimp gyoza and the truffle Parmesan edamame for appetizers. The handmade ebi gyoza is outstanding. Have never experienced gyoza like this and now I will always compare future gyoza to that of Kabooki's. For my meal I ordered the short rib Nabe. It is brought to the table and prepared table side. OMG - this was mind blowing for the palette. The short ribs, the Bonita flakes, the furikake rice, the egg yolk all came together quite perfectly. Ended the meal with the delicious carrot cake. Highly recommend. Great place for date nights, business meals, or meet-ups with friends. And our server? 10/10! read more

I'm really glad we finally got to try this restaurant out, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to go back. To me, it was very overpriced and did not live up to its hype. The two best things we tasted all night were the yucca fritters and the maguro truffle. Those were definitely worth the price for the quality and the portion size. The yucca fritters were my favorite bite of the night. So unique and delicious. I'm still dreaming of them. The sushi rolls we got were not worth the price, and I was a bit disappointed in the quality as well. They were nothing special, and the description promised ingredients that were a lot more exciting than what we tasted. They were all just average, and a couple of them a bit bland. Our server was very nice and attentive! The ambiance was not conducive for a date night. It is a very open restaurant and very loud, so we could barely hear ourselves talk. Plus the tables are spaced so close together I could hear everything from the people on both sides of me. read more

Kabooki was such an experience to go to! Honestly never knew they had a location on Sandlake, so I had to go check it out! This place is so aesthetically pleasing; dim lit, cute modern chairs/seating areas, and overall just a vibe. I started the night with the waygu tasting, which I didn't know I'd be cooking it myself at the table. Each piece of meat on the waygu tasting was delicious, so delicate, and felt like it melted in my mouth with each chew. For sushi I got the tom yum and wow what a refreshing mix of flavors; would definitely get this again. Our server was so nice and made great recommendations for it being our first visit. Definitely willing to come back; maybe even check out their other location in the process! read more

TL;DR: Sub-par/mediocre food. Expensive prices. Good service Came here due to the high reviews and recommendations, and unfortunately left feeling very disappointed/having buyers remorse (which is rare for us). The inside was very nicely decorated and modern. Service was very nice and attentive. FOOD: ~Tuna Flight (2.5/5): came with tuna, chutoro, and otoro. The cuts are smaller than average, and the flavor was okay. The temperature of the fish was a little off for me ~Maguro Truffle (2.5/5): Could not taste the tuna nor the truffle. The crispy bits on the outside were good but overpowering ~Ebi gyoza (3/5): not sure why I expected these to be steamed, but they were fried, but the wrapper was too thick and chewy. The filling was good, but under seasoned. Came with a mojo sauce under which I found confusing ~Wagyu Flight (3/5): Can't go wrong with Wagyu. VERY small portion for price. Came with A3, A4, and A5 wagyu that you cook on a hot stone ~Sashimi Moriawase (3/5): Came with some unique fish. The cuts were weird, and you get 10 pieces of fish for $60. Some of the sauce tops were not good ~Ghost Roll (3/5): While the sauce topped with is was tasty, that was all you could taste. Could not taste the eel or salmon ~Hokkaido Roll (1.5/5): the MOST disappointing item. The scallops tasted like literally nothing. ~Sticky Ribs (2.5/5): this came out last after all our sushi, so timing wasn't great. The ribs were somehow soft but dry at the same time. The sauce was VERY hoisin forward. Couldn't taste any chili Overall, this place was far too expensive for the quality of their food. Has good atmosphere and service, but the food was lacking. read more
