Patatas Bravas with "bump" of caviar $15~$16 extra add on.
Deborah B.

The bartender waiter was fun and friendly. The Manager (?) would deliver food for my neighbor & explained where her fresh produce ingredients and such had been sourced from. I didn't get any of that, just that this is this, & that is that. I splurged & added caviar to my patatas bravas from the Magical Dining menu for around an extra $15-$16 dollars, but it wasn't enough to make a difference. Texture was sort of soft, not popping. The potato texture was really great & the flavor likewise. Hand rolls were cute & sort of small to medium in terms of filling. Sushi roll was tight, well created, zero mess, great flavor. Petite yet long. Dessert was a misnomer by calling the black sesame seed mochi gel cube a "cake". It did not taste like "Snickers" in my opinion. The cream dollop mouse was nice. $5 Real sugar Mexican Coke bottle. Sitting at the bar was okay, people walked by me often, & a table might be better, but it's a compact place. Restrooms are nice and clean. Free parking in the back. Always just my opinion or feeling, for entertainment purposes, just a thought, not proven, not fact, although...... just my opinion.

I visited Sushi Saint for Magical Dining and had a wonderful dining experience. While I liked the quiet and lowkey location and aesthetic of the restaurant, the parking situation can be a turn off if you arrive during a busy time. We arrived early for our reservation and the hostess was able to accommodate us before our scheduled time. The waitress was super nice and informative as we decided on our meals. The food was really good and filling without being too heavy. The only dishes that were less than stellar were the dessert options. They may have been an acquired taste so I encourage anyone to judge for themselves. I highly recommend visiting for great sushi in an intimate setting.

King salmon maki

I had dinner here during Magical Dining and it was a wonderful experience! Kevin took such good care of my friends and I. I was also very impressed with the wine list and help from our server with choosing from the list. The ambience was elegant but also easy-going. Now onto the food. I think this was an incredible value for $40. Each person at our table ordered MD and we all shared the apps. The patatas bravas were seasoned and crispy, the edamame was tender and paired nicely with the truffle oil and salt. For the temaki course, the hamachi was perfectly cut and the seaweed perfectly crispy. Again, service was amazing because we were instructed not to wait until all were served to eat our temaki as the seaweed is best freshly rolled. For the maki course, i opted for the King salmon with truffle and I found this absolutely scrumptious. This is the bite I keep thinking about. For dessert, the ube ice cream sando was perfectly chilled, not too sweet with a hint of salt on the chocolate biscuit. My kind of dessert. All-in-all a successful Magical Dining outing that definitely has me planning a return trip. Thank you Sushi Saint!

This was a wonderful sushi experience. The ambiance of the place allows you to relax. It's tasteful, modern, enjoyable, down to the cute pottery where your food is served. Speaking of food, those Japanese inspired patatas bravas were AMAZING!! The aioli on top has this hint of lemon and the saltiness of the cotija cheese, sooo sooo good! I'd come back just to eat that again. We were eating from the magical dining menu and we got to choose 2 of the hand rolls. I picked hamachi and the truffle mushroom one which was a vegetarian selection and I have to say, I liked that one best, but I'm huge fan of anything truffle, and this just exploded with truffle flavor in my mouth. I also chose the king salmon truffle roll and that was just ok. Didn't really have much of a truffle flavor. I had tried my friends california roll and I found that to be better. I liked the texture of the fish eggs on that one. Last but not least; their mochi snickers cake was so delightful. Small, but the perfect ending to a fabulous meal. Service was outstanding, very attentive. I can't wait to come back.

Spicy crunchy tuna and truffle salmon

Sushi Saint in Winter Park was such a great experience from start to finish! The ambiance is cozy and intimate, making it a perfect spot for a quiet date night. The service was wonderful. Everyone was incredibly attentive, welcoming, and happy to answer any questions I had. Each course also came out surprisingly quickly without ever making the experience feel rushed. We visited during Magical Dining Month and took advantage of the three-course menu for $40. I started with the Patatas Bravas, followed by the Truffle Salmon for my main course, and finished with the Ube Ice Cream Sandwich for dessert. I also ordered a mezcal cocktail--I can't remember the name, but it was delicious! Everything was honestly a 10/10. What I really appreciated about Sushi Saint was the simplicity of the menu. The focus is clearly on the quality and freshness of the seafood rather than overwhelming you with options. Even with the soy sauce, they recommend using very little because everything is already seasoned so well--and they were absolutely right. If you're a sushi lover who appreciates quality seafood and a more curated dining experience, Sushi Saint is definitely worth checking out. I would absolutely go back!

I went here for their magical dining $40 special. Reservations are a must. The place is really small & intimate and it gets packed. The music was a total vibe as well as the dim lighting. This is definitely a great date spot or a quiet place for some amazing sushi with a few friends. I began with the edamame. It was good. Next for my Temaki (hand rolls) I chose the Crab & the King Salmon. The king Salmon was the clear winner for me here. I also loved the little dropper for the soy sauce. Very unique! Next I ordered the crunchy spicy tuna maki. This was absolutely delicious! I enjoyed every bite! I tried the truffle king salmon maki and that was a solid choice as well. For dessert I selected the mochi "cake". The presentation was fabulous but the description was misleading. It wasn't a cake at all. It had a gelatinous consistency that confused me when I expected cake. The ice cream and honey mousse flavoring was delicious and I ate that. Our server, Steddy, was phenomenal. We were seated at the bar and his service was top notch! We enjoyed conversations with him and appreciated his recommendations. He was knowledgeable, attentive, & personable. Go show this place some love. Thanks for a fabulous dining experience, Sushi Saint WP.

King salmon temaki and crab temaki
Jensine C.

Loved our delicious Magicla dining experience here for our girls night. That sichuan cucumbers was so good, we could just eat the chili crunch all by itself. We also enjoyed the potatoes bravas with that yuzu aioli, yummy! We ordered their petal peach cocktail that was light and sweet and with a tasty foam topping. The Temaki were so good! We both really enjoyed the crab with its miso butter, and we got our own king salmon with lime miso and the spicy tuna temaki. Both equally delicious that we could just keep ordering more. For the sushi rolls we both chose the crunchy spicy tuna roll and the pickled Serrano along with wasabi was no joke and nasal cleanser! So good though and the quality of all the seafood was top notch. The dessert though unfortunately fell flat for us. We also both picked the black sesame mochi cake with "snickers" ice cream but that did not hit like everything else. Our server was so kind and attentive and the restaurant itself was clean cut and intimate. Would definitely come back again for the appetizers and the temaki rolls.

Okay, where do you get into this place? Oh, in the back! I found that out after entering the front door. Better signage please. To make it more confusing, it is right next to Soseki Modern Omakase -- as in I think they are the same place, sort of. Anyway... Inside, I had a seat at the bar and was here for the Bite30 menu. To start I had the Patatas Bravas - Crispy potatoes topped with yozu aioli, cotija cheese, aleppo pepper, bonito flake and chives. Wow! What an amazing way to start the meal! From there the Crunchy Spicy Tuna Maki - dry aged tuna, avocado, cucumber and pickled daikon. It was great though I must say that the way they do their soy sauce is intimidating. To top the meal off I had a truly amazing Mango and Matcha Mochi. I'm not a huge mochi fan but this round of them might have me converted. Bar service was great and everything came out at a good pace. Not waiting too long for anything but also not feeling like I was rushed either. Do grab a reservation if you come here as it is not that big at all. The music was just shy of being too loud, but I also think it fit in well with the ambiance they are attempting to achieve. It seems Sushi Saint was Michelin 2025 and I believe Soseki is 2026. Either way, something beyond good is going on here. Dive in and find out!

My husband and I came for Magical Dining it was a really great deal! Good amount of high quality food for $40. Sushi Saint in Winter Park is the 2nd location, it is smaller but very cute and our server was excellent! I started with the Petal and Peach cocktail (gin, peach, yuzu and coconut milk). For magical dining we each got a starter, I chose the Sichuan cucumbers, very tasty with just a tiny kick and my husband got the patatas bravas. The next course was the hand rolls, we each got to pick 2. We both chose the Hamachi (yellowtail, wasabi aioli & cilantro) and the crab (with miso butter and cucumber). Then we each got to pick a maki roll, we shared the crunchy spicy tuna (with avocado, cucumber, tempura flakes, spicy aioli, topped with tuna), this one was good, but a little spicy for me & the truffle king salmon roll (with avocado, cucumber and cilantro). Finally, we ended with dessert. We split the Ube Ice Cream Sando and the Mochi Cake, definitely get the Ube Ice Cream Sando, we would come back just for that!

We received excellent service here. The staff seemed to be genuinely passionate about the food and restaurant which Is always a good sign The Patatas bravas, ube ice cream sandwhich and wagyu crab roll were my favorites. I also like how they source a lot of ingredients locally

This place is incredible!! The food is so delicious and the service is great. I have gone three times so far and will be back. Also love the cute little animal plates they have!

Vikki B.

Love the restaurant downtown. This one hits a little different. Small dining and bar area. While the roll was good - the apps we chose left a little to be desired. Lucked into both the bartenders serving us being new with one on his second day.

#SUPPORTLOCALBUSINESSES Everything about dinner was great. I love when a casual date night turns into an unexpectedly special time. The space inside is very intimate so it's great for a date or celebration meal with someone you love. If you're into high quality seafood and a small menu with unique options this is a great place to try. I can say me and my partner were making bets on who would get the last piece of every plate we had. Alsooooo, all the ingredients are sources locally with some ingredients grown by the chefs themselves. That type of flavor is unique and easy to identify when you taste how fresh everything is.

Date night, date night!!

We went to celebrate my birthday and I felt like we got the lucky moments! Two standout moments: 1. We ordered the salmon tasting and when it arrived, there was another bowl that arrived that we did not order. Our kind server pointed it out and said "this hamachi was delivered by accident but it's your lucky day! Enjoy!" 2. My husband's sake glass had the smallest chip in the lip of the cup. A server pointed it out and said "so sorry, can I offer you another bottle of sake on the house?" We weren't going to say no to that! In addition to the tastings (which was incredible), we had the 5 hand roll pre-fixe as well as a shrimp, akami, wagyu, lobster, and salmon hand rolls. The hand roll standouts for us were the shrimp, crab & lobster! We like to share so whenever a hand roll came out for each of us we would take two bites and then switch, it was perfect cause then we got to try so much! All dining is at the bar with tall chairs. My main complaint is that they are stools and not chairs with backs, but that's cause I'm old now. But thankfully there are hooks for purses under the bar top, so I was thankful for that! We had a wonderful experience and I can't wait to go back!

Wow I have no words to express what a fantastic dining experience I had at Mosonori…read more Their speciality is hand-rolls and sashimi style tastings so it is not a large menu. I ordered the pre-set four hand-rolls which included hamachi, crab, sea bream and toro. We also ordered the hamachi and salmon tasting. The seafood tasted fresh and sashimi was mouthwatering. I also ordered one of their signature cocktails, Aga Punch. Refreshing and not too sweet. The place is gorgeous with a minimalist but elevated decor. The seats can get uncomfortable over time since they don't have a back rest. The sushi chefs make the hand-rolls right in front of you. When you get your roll the seaweed is still fresh and crispy ( don't wait too long to eat it). The concept is by chef Henry Moso, the mastermind behind Kabooki. Here you will have an elevated dining experience without the price tag. In my opinion the price is reasonable for the quality of food you get.

For starters we had the wagyu carpaccio and toro tartare, but were super fresh and flavors were perfectly balanced. For the main course we got the sticky ribs with a side of steamed rice and a couple of sushi rolls. If you haven't had their sticky ribs, it's an absolute must try. I don't know what they do to them but they are super tender fall off the bone but still have a slight crunch when you bite. The sauce/flavor is something I've never had...like a sweet teriyaki bbq of some sort. The Tom Yum Roll and Spicy Tuna roll were also great, not anything I would rant about but genuinely good and fresh. The desserts were both incredible!! The cream brûlée was sweet but not overpowering and the texture was perfect. The lava cake was nice and hot! Served with some fantastic ice cream that wasn't only vanilla, it had a hint of something! All in all it was a wonderful night, we really look forward to going back.

From the MD menu, we ordered the Scallops (impeccable and melt-in-your-mouth), the Hiramasa (I would leave out the gochujang; it was too spicy for a first course and overpowered the dish; such a delicate fish sashimi doesn't pair well with it, in my opinion), the Black Cod (perfect, just like the scallops, and melted in my mouth), and the Wagyu (super tender and flavorful, though I found it a bit saltier than necessary; the sweet potato cream and stout jus were perfect, but I thought the jam on top of the cippolini was too sweet). As for the desserts, we had the dark cocoa Choux (highlight goes to the brown butter cream) and the stone fruit purin (a very sophisticated cousin of a parfait). The quality of the dishes was incredible, but the reason for the 4-star rating here is the portion sizes, which were quite small. I left hungry, unfortunately.

New to the area, and I found this place by doing a quick search for sushi near me…read more I placed an order on their website while we finished some shopping nearby and then we went inside to pick it up. I noticed that they have a unique drive-up area on the right side of the restaurant for curbside, which is pretty neat. I've ordered takeout from here twice but I have never dined in. Overall good restaurant, particularly the food and value, but the front-of-house experience needs improvement. I would probably stop by again, especially because the Salmon Teriyaki Bento was really tasty. Food: 4 out of 5 First time here I ordered the Fish Tempura roll, the Avocado roll, and the Krab Blossoms. The Fish Tempura roll was tasty and the Krab Blossoms were hot and fresh - The sesame sauce that came with them was phenomenal. The avocado roll was underwhelming, but I believe it was because of the rice. It wasn't seasoned properly IMO. My second time I ordered the Krab Blossoms again and the Salmon Teriyaki Bento for dinner. The bento came with SO much stuff, I had leftovers for lunch the next day. It was flavorful and delicious. Highly recommend this dish. Hospitality: 2.5 out of 5 Honestly a miss. Not sure if it's because we ordered takeout both times, but the FOH staff working was not particularly friendly or welcoming. They gave the impression that they didn't care if we ordered there or not. I tipped on my first order (compulsory) but the next time I didn't. I'm just happy my order was correct. Value: 4 out of 5 Their menu has a bit of everything, from hand rolls, to sushi/sashimi, special rolls, hibachi, bento boxes, noodles, appetizers, and even kids meals. Prices ranges from 6.95 (the lowest priced roll) to 17.95 (the highest priced specialty roll) highest hibachi grill entree is 23.95 for dinner, the lowest is 16.95 (or 15.75 if you just want veggies). I say all of this to say it's not especially inexpensive, but there's a wide range of what you can enjoy here. If you're on a budget, you should stop by for lunch because your dollars will go a lot further. Parking: 4 out of 5 A few spaces available in the front. I saw a sign that indicated there was additional parking on the side of the restaurant.

There's always a couple things that make a great experience. Positive staff, fresh and tasty food…read more Kyoto demonstrates both with an extra shine on customer service, ambiance, and great food quality. On a sushi journey - this is a must that compares against the best in Orlando!

My first time here was actually right after visiting Volcano Bay, and I had absolutely no idea this…read morewas a Michelin-recognized spot! I just happened to stop in, and after coming back again much later, I'm happy to say the food and service are still just as impressive as I remembered. The whole ordering system is really efficient. You can order directly through the bartender or server, and they'll give you a table number afterward. Finding a table can be a little tricky when it's busy, but don't be shy about asking if you notice someone getting ready to leave. The space is dimly lit, relaxing, and has plenty of seating, so it's a great place to hang out and enjoy a few drinks. The drinks are definitely a highlight for me. I always tell the bartenders what kind of flavor profile I'm in the mood for and let them recommend something, and they've hit the mark every single time. They're great at understanding what you're looking for, even when you don't know exactly what you want. Food-wise, the skewers are a must. They have a really nice char on the outside, and the dipping sauce adds even more flavor. The crab fried rice is another favorite--the portion is generous for the price, and it's flavorful enough to stand on its own or share with the table. What I really appreciate is that the quality has stayed consistent between visits. Great food, creative drinks, efficient service, and a relaxed atmosphere make this a place I'll definitely continue coming back to.

We finally got to go here after a friend suggested it. I had Tori Tori on my to go list for a while…read morebut I am always wary about spots on Mills because they can be crazy busy. I arrived around 430 and waited till they opened at 5. There were several others as well, waiting for the doors to open. Our party of five found one of this tables at the end which is shaped like a large D letter, weird sitting but the only other better seats were outside and I am not breathing in exhaust fumes of Mills as we eat. There is a small sheet of paper with the food items, no prices listed and you need to open a tab at the bar to place your orders. You also need to get your drinks from the bar but they do serve you the tapas style food. It's all small items, three or four smallish items per plate and in varying prices, not listed anywhere but online on their site. I ordered the crab and corn croquetas ($9.5), crab rice ($11), mushrooms in soy sauce ($7), beef with chimichurri ($7.5) and a soda ($3.5). The crab and corn croquetas are a good sized portion, coming in three balls with a tender inside full of tasty corn pieces and crab. The sauce they come with also delivers on making them stand out. The crab rice was a good sized scoop and you could taste the freshness of it all, use the small slice of lemon to give it a tiny extra kick. The mushrooms in soy sauce were absolutely rocking on the taste buds with the umami really strong but so tasty. I ate half of the plate and brought the rest for snacking on tomorrow. Yay The beef with chimichurri was about 3 ounces worth of beef and sliced into four really small bites. A bit pricey for what you're given. My friend ordered the pork belly which was the same size and had a lovely taste to it. She also ordered the gyoza which came with five small pieces and those were tasty. The servers were super quick in bringing out the plates and due to the smallish sized table, it got overwhelming a bit quickly and we had to shuffle stuff around but since the meals are smallish, you do eat pretty quickly too. You have to be there early or else the seating is a roll of the dice, as soon as we began to leave, someone scooped in to grab the table. One poor guy was with his lady at the bar, she was seated but he didn't have one for him so he was standing beside her. The parking is shared with the other restaurant beside it and there are signs about paying parking... but I think that's only for certain hours?
