    Mango Tango Roll
    Sharon J.

    The best sushi within 500 miles! Even when they're busy attention to detail is always provided by their excellent staff. The items that aren't sushi are great, too! Loved the chicken teriyaki bento box and the salmon garlic is fantastic as a side order. Worth the wait!

    Sushi roll on steroids! I've never seen big rolls like this! Great establishment! Andy & staff were very personable. Food was priced decently & the experience was excellent.

    I'm very happy to have checked this place out after seeing multiple people recommend it on Reddit! My date ordered the steak teriyaki. The steak tasted phenomenal. It was tender, juicy and super flavorful! They also gave a good amount of steak in the dish, along with a side of rice, dumplings and cucumbers in a yummy spicy sauce. Totally worth $20 and we actually went back the next day so I could order it as well lol. I grew up in Florida and miss having accessible sushi places now that I live in a landlocked state. I tried three different rolls, the snow bird, viagra and mango tango. What was fun is that the second time we visited us they let me order a roll of their current menu, called the Mango tango which was fantastic. I love fresh tuna paired with mango. All of the seafood in the rooms was fresh and each one of them was flavorful. I usually prefer sushi with less fried ingredients, but really enjoyed these rolls and would order them again despite my typical preference. Lastly this restaurant gets super packed! It opens at 5 for dinner and we thought we were getting there early at 5:12, but all tables were full and we had to wait 45 minutes. Definitely expect to wait if you plan to eat here and I'd say if your party is larger than 6 people you are better off going somewhere else since their seating arrangement is not fit for extremely large parties. I can't wait to go back when I visit Destin again! It was so delicious and well worth the price! Thank you for the awesome food and service! Also pro tip if it looks dark, still try the door. They have blackout windows that make it look like they are closed.

    So after much research into the best sushi in Destin, we kept being led back to this place. We decided to try it out and we weren't disappointed but we also weren't blown away. They were fairly busy when we arrived but we were greeted and seated after a short wait. The manager was super friendly and checked on us throughout the night. The seating layout is definitely communal- one long booth with multiple tables with chairs across. Service was great, food was okay. The gyoza was fresh but the sushi was pretty plain- it was good, but not super flavorful.

    Very enjoyable experience. My neice and I had lunch on a friday. The restaurant is small, 10 or so tables and a bar that seats 15ish. Not a place to bring big groups or a large family on vacation, unless you split up into groups of 2 and 4 to dine. Everything is prepared with quality in mind, cold plates are chilled, sushit rice is room temp, the fish is cut properly in terms of thickness and orientation. The fish itself is mild in flavor, buttery, tender, and refreshing. The staff is also super super friendly. Arrive as though you are guests there to enjoy a wonderful meal and you won't have any issues.

    It Took Me a While to Actually Experience Sushimoto due to their Hours and The Fact that they Close for Months in the Summertime, but It Was Definitely Worth it! Best Sushi I have had in Destin!

    Ramen - so good!
    Elizabeth L.

    For the absolute best melt in your mouth sushi - eat here! Your bar for good sushi will be changed and very high after your first bite! This is a family run top notch sushi restaurant with a some daily specials. Not suitable for big crowds or unruly people! My husband loves when they have ramen on the menu since he's not a sushi fan. (He goes for me)

    Best sushi on the gulf! Best service in Florida! Family owned and talented chefs! Worth the wait and will be back again and again!!

    This is the spot for sushi. If you like spicy, get the 5x roll. Service is always good. And I love the ambiance.

When we received the bill, it seemed higher than expected. Upon asking for clarification, we were told there was an 8% "packaging fee," which exceeded the local tax. This charge was not itemized as a packaging fee on the receipt--only listed as "8%"--and there was no explanation provided. Since it had been a long day and our order was already prepared, we chose to proceed with the purchase. What concerned us most was that this fee was neither disclosed on the website nor mentioned when we placed our order. We only became aware of it after questioning the total. Greater transparency would have been appreciated. If such charges were clearly communicated in advance, customers could make informed decisions. While we understand that restaurants operate with tight margins, unexpected fees leave a negative impression and ultimately influenced our decision not to return. We have enjoyed the food in the past, but at this price point, we would likely explore other options that we feel offer better overall value.

The weather was a beautiful 70 degrees, and we were lucky enough to get a table with a great view of the beach and sunshine. We ordered the fish tacos and the grouper bites. The food came out in a reasonable amount of time and was piping hot. The fish tacos had a generous piece of fish on each taco, grilled perfectly. My friend ordered the grouper bites and OMG -- they were lightly battered, cooked just right, and you get so many! Definitely a must-have. Now for the service. Our waitress started off strong by promptly taking our order, but unfortunately it went downhill from there. Once we received our food, she never stopped back to check on us or offer drink refills. There was only one bartender and the place was packed. He appeared overwhelmed, especially with beachgoers walking up to the bar while also trying to keep up with drink orders from the waitstaff. It didn't seem like the servers had assigned sections, as tables appeared to be seated in rotation. Toward the end of our meal, we noticed not only ourselves but other diners trying to get their waitress's attention, which was difficult. Overall, I'd give the food 5 stars and the service 2 stars. I understand it's a beach atmosphere, but with spring break starting, the service really needs to step up its game.
