A friend and I went here because she had seen some comments on Columbia foodies about how great the food was. We came in last minute and it was packed. But we were able to get a table fairly quickly. We ordered the Vietnamese spring rolls, which by far for the highlight of the evening. The sauce is addictive and I could have eaten three orders of these. My friend ordered the spider roll and I ordered the volcano roll and the Palmetto roll. The Palmetto roll had honey on it, which I didn't think about but the sweet mixed with the fish was not my thing. The volcano roll was absolutely delicious but know that it's pretty heavily covered in the mayo and eel sauce so if you don't want a ton of extra calories, you could ask for it on the side. My friend spider roll was super fishy. I'm glad we went, but not sure that it would be worth a trip back. The restaurant was clean and nice, but the bathroom has seen better days and there was blood on the walls so it was just really weird. Luckily went to the restroom at the end of the evening. So it didn't impact my appetite. read more

The food is actually good here, but we came and had some of the worst service in post COVID memory. We ordered an appetizer, and the tables behind, and to the side of us both had their orders messed up, so after close to 1 hour (no exaggeration) we never had a drink refill or our actual meal put in. We politely went to the bar and said in the most polite way possible that we needed to pay for these reasons, and I still tipped......because I am not a dirt bag. It still took another 10 minutes to pay. I am leaving off the name of the server, because people may need the money, but I am pretty sure that the staff and team know who it is, and the problem can be fixed by servers actually writing down orders, so that mistakes are less common, and staff covering down for others. I will happily update this review if I go back in a year or something and they have these easy, and almost cost neutral solutions implemented. read more

Plenty of outstanding vegan options!! I stop in after lunch and the place is quiet and peaceful. The cold noodle salad is one of my favorites as well at the veggie tempura. read more

The waiter, Mason was awesome. He has the entire table laughing along with being prompt with the service. read more

Everything is delicious and the wait staff are really good. My friends and I go once a month.

Food has great potential but was bland. Our waitress was polite but not friendly. She seem to be more engrossed in conversation with the bartender than serving our table. Women and men bathroom walls, mirrors, and paper towel holders need a thorough clean. An air freshener would be very nice. read more

This is the best Asian food I've had in Columbia so far. I consider myself a Hot and Sour soup connoisseur. They have the best I've ever had. I lived in California before moving here so I've had my share of Asian food. Good and bad. This is also one of the few places here that serves moo shu. Very, very good food. read more

Our service was great as always, we always have the same girl during the week and she's great. Food was good as always. Lunchtime was busy but service was great even with the craziness. read more

While I am, somehow, just now writing a review for Miyo's the truth is my Daughter and I have been going there once a week for the last five years and we Love it! It's kind of an Asian Fusion place with lots of Cantonese, Mandarin and Japanese items. When I go with Gogo, we always do sushi. Our favorites are the spider and rainbow rolls. The quality is unmatched in the city of Columbia. When I go with my partner we generally gets Kung Pao Chicken which they will make as mild or spicy as you want it. I also think Miyo's has the best chicken fried rice I've ever had..., try it with a little plum sauce and it's next level. All the servers are friendly and know the menu. There is a small bar up front with 4-5 seats, featuring interesting Asian beers and a full bar setup. The places is nice on the inside so it's a good fit for a date but not so fancy you can't show up in flip flops. Also there is tons of seating so if you need a place that will seat you and a big party with little notice on the weekend, Miyo's is your best bet in the city. read more

Too high priced and was charged because I didn't want egg in my rice never told this before have eaten here many times and will not be back

Disgusting restroom............The waiter did not seem overly concerned when I mentioned the issue.........No attention to detail.........Obviously wondering about the kitchen and preparation of food.... read more

Saturday nite 1/9/21 around 6pm. Delightful dinner and atmosphere. Much improved since the last time we ate here. Definitely an improvement since they seem to have recently remodeled. Appetizers were the vegetable spring rolls and the crab rangoon. Both were exc ellent. Main course was combo sushi and sashimi with mild fish requested from the chef. Wife enjoyed that tremendously and ate all of it. Mine was the Szechuan chicken/shrimp lo-mein which was probably the best I have ever had. Service was good, but he seems a little rushed. He mellowed out a little as dinner progressed. Still five stars. 1 beer and 1 glass of wine included with dinner, and the total before tax and tip was under $58. Will definitely be back. read more

Hearing great things about this restaurant over the past week, I knew I had to try it out. Upon entrance, one feels a sense of tranquility from the cool lighting and fresh air. Tempura is a newfangled concept therefore i decided to try some out. The Godzilla tempura is what I opted for and it was delicious. The light frying created a great balance between the dense crab and lobster. I ended getting a Wok Szechuan dinner which came with huge portions. The food was delicious and had a light spiciness to it, although I hoped for more kick. The meal could also come with some more rice as the was barely enough to mix in with the bulk of the food. All in all, this is a great location to have a casual lunch with some filling portions. read more

I had not been to Milo's in years since I moved to Los Angeles. The food was still as good as I remembered. I shared the vegetable tempura as the appetizer and then I had the chicken sesame with brown rice. The helping at dinner is so large I could have shared. Instead I brought it back to the house to have as leftovers. The service was great. I also had hot green tea. The place was so large and full that it was as a little louder than I would like but we were still able to have conversations at the table. read more

Miyo's off Forest really needs a thorough cleaning and updating. Fresh paint, bathroom repairs etc. food is still great but I'm sad at how run down this location is. read more

Love the vibes here, the service is top notch, and the sushi is great! All Columbia locations are enjoyable, but this is my fav.

I have eaten here before and everything was outstanding. Today we were very disappointed in the food. The shrimp wonton soup was luke warm the sushi wasn't as fresh as it was on previous visits and the seaweed salad tasted very fishy. I don't think we will going back here and I'm not going to recommend it to anyone. read more

The food is always good at MiYo's. The food always comes out, hot and fresh, which makes for a great lunch, or dinner. I've always had great service at this restaurant. The owner of this restaurant loves people, and takes great pride in meals that they serve, every time that I've been, the place has always been clean and beautiful. overall, it is great place for every occasion! I'll give them five stars read more

Food was hit or miss, some people I was with loved it and others said 4/10. Service was fantastic though! Our waiter, Brandon, was so funny and caring. The inside of this place is so cute. I recommend trying this place at least once! read more

Food was disgusting. So greasy and tasteless. They lost their edge or are under new management. Very cheaply ran and the chicken had a smell to it.? The pot stickers were ok fried very hard. A waste of $25 the Arnold Palmer was the best part. read more

I normally don't leave reviews but this one I had too. Just came from this restaurant and had egg drop soup and curry sauce. By the time I got home I had diarrhea. Now I'm waiting and watching to see how else I feel. I do know I'm not eating out for a while read more

Really enjoyed the food, service and the location. The prices weren't too bad. I think lunch would be a good deal.

My wife & I are regulars and have always enjoyed the food, atmosphere and service. Broke from my routine and ordered the Crispy Flounder. 98.9% that I was served a very, very bland crispy cod instead. Lesson learned and would never reorder the dish again. read more

We have eaten at Miyo's since they opened many years ago but we might be done. The last three times at two different restaurants we have not had good meals. Tonight we ordered takeout from Forest Dr and when I picked it up there were only 3 containers. We ordered fried rice for our entrees so I asked while paying and the server said it was now inside the order container. When I got home there was no rice. I called to get a credit and the guy on the phone was rude and said I could come back and get it but I didn't want to do that. My food would have been cold by the time I did that. No credit was issued and I'm not returning to Miyo's. It's a shame because we used to love eating there. read more

I had picked up takeout from here about a year ago and I can honestly say it was not good at all. I ended up moving into town and stopped by again just to see if anything changed. I don't know what happened but my meal was very good and I was surprised at all the extra things that were included, like a bowl of steamed rice and a side of seaweed salad. The waitress was extremely nice and the service was very good. I will definitely come back. read more

Miyo's - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Went here Saturday night...first time at this site since the Miyo's in Sandhill area closed in the northeast. My granddaughter, visiting from Wisconsin, had a craving for sushi so my wife and I decided to satisfy that with a trip to Miyo's. My wife always orders the Maestro Chicken with asparagus and green beans, her favorite. We started with a chicken spring roll (very good) and a cup of Miso soup. My granddaughter had only had California rolls so I wanted her to try a few different things. I ordered the MCafe roll (which is one of my favorites at Miyo's), a shrimp tempura roll and a Spider Roll. They all were good. I ordered an Unagi roll after that just to give her a taste of eel. She liked all of them, but was pretty full when we got to the Unagi..but she did eat one or two pieces of it. Nice atmosphere and our waitress was prompt and good. I'd only gone to the Sandhill site Miyo's previously, but this was a nice restaurant. Clean, not as large as the Sandhill Miyo's, but very nice. Recommend it! read more

Food was good. Definitely get your money's worth. Service was good, even though they were busy on a Saturday night after the home football game. read more

Compliments to the chef who created some very tasty sushi rolls today at Miyo's on Forest Drive. The ginger salad was so good that I didn't get to snap a photo of it. Big thanks to our server for keeping our drinks refreshed and bringing out the spicy mayo and ginger dressing for dipping. Also appreciative of the hand sanitizer at the door, socially distanced tables, and having serving staff wear masks. Impeccably clean dining room from my observations. During the 6 years I've spent in Columbia, I've visited this location at least 20 times, and it's always a delightful place to share a meal with family and friends. read more

Miyo's - spicy tuna roll, spicy salmon roll, and palmetto roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Small nice quiet restaurant with great food and wonderful wait staff. The only negative is sometimes the waiters don't write down our order and bring us the wrong food. It's a great way to explore new foods we normally wouldn't try. Plenty of parking and the food comes out quickly so a good place for lunch. read more

The rolls were good, the crab wontons were DELICIOUS! I think it's a nice atmosphere and affordable...as far as sushi goes. There was a bit too much tuna in my friends spicy tuna... but I'm sure most wouldn't complain. If you like chopsticks, you'll have to ask for them. Quick service! I'd come back for sure. read more

We went for dinner and service took awhile. The only thing that I Court eat for what u Ordered was the pan fried dumplings. The shrimp wonton was cold and no flavor. Ordered the salmon and I almost faint cause it was not cook right and without any ginger flavor. My husband ordered some Godzilla and delivered late. I will not come back again. read more

Service was good, waitress was pleasant and prompt with orders, refills and suggestions. Food seemed as if it was store bough and just warmed up to order. Finished about 1/4 of the orange chicken before leaving, I didn't even bother to ask for a Togo plate. It was a true walk of shame back to the car. Probably won't go back and don't recommend this place. read more

Those who live in Columbia know how inconsistent the service and quality can be at Miyo's -- some days it's good, but more times than not, you're shaking your head as you walk back to your car. Or, for those even less fortunate, you're calling in sick from work the next day because you were served a poorly prepared meal. It's sad that a restaurant that's been around since 1996 has struggled so much in recent years... read more

I've been to miyo's many times, but I hadn't been in years. I went today for a late lunch. We had chicken curry pot stickers, chicken lettuce wraps, jalapeño tuna, and two sushi rolls. All was delicious (I especially liked the curry pot stickers), but the star was our waiter, Christophe. He was very accommodating to all our tomfoolery. Will go again for sure. read more

We absolutely love Miyo's on Forest Dr! We come here for lunch about 2-3 times per week! Not only is the food fresh and delicious but the staff and bartenders are the true reason we come in. As we like to sit at the bar area, we usually are greeted by Eli, Ashley and/or Nick. They are always friendly and accommodating. It is so refreshing to go out someplace that the staff truly appreciates their customers. They deserve a gold star for always going above and beyond! read more
